ARE WE ON AIR ?

What happens when design runs through your DNA?
In this reflective chapter of Are We On Air, Gaia Repossi reveals the quiet discipline behind a loud legacy. From Mapplethorpe tributes to childhood sketches, she unpacks the creative burden of inheritance and why sound transcends vision, structure, and sound define her world. An ode to sculptural thinking, sonic rituals, and how jewelry becomes memory.

Fresh off a euphoric Coachella set, Paul Armand-Delille — aka Polo, one half of French electronic duo Polo & Pan — sits down with Arman for a sonic deep-dive into process, memory, and identity. Paul reflects on how the new Polo & Pan album 22:22 was born from creative surrender, why stage fright never really leaves, and how a spontaneous back-to-back in Mexico changed everything. From the nostalgia of Paris nightlife to recording in Morocco’s mountains, Paul shares what happens when you stop overthinking and start listening.
