In her daily life, Croatian Nina Skocak works for the European Commission's Scientific Advice Mechanism. She also makes videos for TikTok and Instagram. "Sometimes I record videos where I read out lyrics of Balkan songs as if they were poetry. Turbo-folk, for example, which is a very specific genre popular in the Balkans and Eastern Europe. The lyrics can be very funny and are often about women, certain body parts, drugs and money."
