E06 Sophie Hoyle

In this episode, Rupert's former resident, Sophie Hoyle, speaks to Yates Norton about their work on mental health, anxiety and trauma and how these topics are talked and thought about in Lithuania and other contexts. Sophie Hoyle opened Rupert's 2020 public programmes on care and interdependence with a screening at Editorial. At 20:45, Sophie speaks about alternative DIY sexual healthcare services; an example of this is Gynepunk collective (who offer workshops on using open-source gynaecological kits e.g. open-source microscope, a 3D printed speculum and a centrifuge).
