Forbes Brasil called her “one of the most important futurists in the world.” It's hard for me to measure the impact she's had on business leaders, tech startups, marketing and communications firms, arts schools, and in the lives of the countless other people.We talk about the relationship between numbers, language, and the ineffable, ever-shifting human spirit. Adah's work points past knowledge and history into the elemental nature of both human and machine, past our differences into the deep similarity worth celebrating and the mystery that we inhabit and embody. Join us for a yarn that is both silly and profound, present and far-reaching, about being uncategorizably creative, open, and curious amidst the wicked problems of our time…Project Links• Read the project pitch & planning doc• Dig into the full episode and essay archives• Join the online commons for Wisdom x Technology on Discord + Bluesky + X• Join the open, listener-moderated Future Fossils Discord Server• Contact me if you have questions (patron rewards, sponsorship, collaboration, etc.)• Browse the HOTL reading list and support local booksellersChapters0:00:00 - Teaser0:00:49 - Intro0:05:24 - Feeling Seen & Heard0:09:54 - Adah's Biography0:17:21 - Poetry & Number0:27:55 - Cyborg Shamanism & The Five Elements0:37:03 - The Foraging Neurotype of “Extremely Online”0:51:07 - Surrendering Agency to Systems0:55:14 - The Incremental Reclamation of Agency1:01:19 - Art after Modernity & Healing from Noise1:13:01 - Beyond Narrative & Into Dance1:17:30 - Thanks & AnnouncementsAdah's LinksWebsite | Instagram | LinkedIn | Medium | Chartwell SpeakersFinding Our Future in Ancestral Wisdom @ TEDxSohoWhat Kind of Ancestor Do You Want To Be? @ Think With GoogleCyborg Shamanism & The Case for Elemental AI @ AtmosMentioned MediaRefactoring “Autonomy” & “Freedom” for The Age of Language Modelsby Michael Garfield223 - Timothy Morton on A New Christian Ecology & Systems Thinking BlasphemyFuture Fossils PodcastAttention deficits linked with proclivity to explore while foragingby David L.

Episode Summary: Science teacher extraordinaire (and long-time friend) Lynn Coles joins the adventure  to talk about connection, community, and bringing wonder into the classroom. From insects to sunsets and everything in between, we explore the magic of building classroom and real-world connections — with a sprinkle of picture book recommendations!0:46 We explore the influence of Lynn's early childhood ambitions (you'll love why she didn't become an entomologist) and picture books on her journey to become a science teacher. At 06:48, we delve into how STEAM first impacted our adventures as teachers and how those connections carry through to our work today.11:27 Building connections is critical to our success in the classroom — and our success as humans. 14:28 “If  you have a classroom where students can experience things with their hands and their minds, together with other people, and find a way to enjoy that and to see why it's relevant, then you're going to learn without even realizing you're doing so.” 20:30 Picture Book Connections  Since Lynn brought up wanting to be an entomologist, I highly recommend Buzzing with Questions: the Inquisitive Mind of Charles Henry Turner. It's a beautiful picture book biography by Janice  Harrington, illustrated by Theodore Taylor II. Other book connections this week: What's in Your Pocket: Collecting Nature's Treasures (Heather L. Montgomery/Maribel Lechuga) encourages children to use the senses to explore the natural world. Ada Twist, Scientist ( Andrea Beaty/David Roberts) is  a great one for your budding scientists and for considering new ways to encourage wonder and exploration in kids.A current new favorite is Fairy Science (Ashley Spires).  All the fairies in the woods think everything happens due to magic and our heroine uses the scientific process to try to prove them wrong.In our conversation I referenced We Are Water Protectors (Carol Lindstrom/Michaela Goade), a beautiful book for exploring the power we all have to protect the water.  Note: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.22:22 From picture book and STEAM connections, we explore advice for teachers looking to build connections within the classroom.  24:44: A new must-have in Lynn's teacher tool-kit: the Seek app from iNaturalist.  25:45: We circle back to the wonder of childhood nature experiences with thoughts on how wonder enhances classroom and community connections — as well as makes us happier humans. How to Have a Life Full of WonderBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast laun Start for FREEDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

This week, the ladies are full of ALL the theories about the children's mega-hit, Gabby's Dollhouse. . What is Gabby's REAL story? Where exactly is she? Who's in charge? And most importantly - are your kids safe watching this show? Our ThoughtsThe show reminds Laura and Kara of Blue's Clues in that the characters interact with the audience by asking questions and through meaningful pauses. Gabby's solitary living situation reminds Kara and Laura of the disturbing late 80's drama Flowers in the Attic where a family of young children are locked in an attic for a stretch. Kara may have read this book when she was in middle school and Laura definitely read the Dollanganger Children series. We also have a feline problem. Cats won't paint your nails, clothe you or bake you cupcakes. Mamas, don't let your kids dress your cats or they're gonna get scratched. Laura can't help but feel as if she's sitting through a toy commercial during each episode. Having recently watched The Orange Years, about Nickelodeon choosing its programs to sell toys to kids in the early 90s, Laura senses a setup. Should they watch it?Kara: YesLaura: NoWe still think you should watch Ada Twist, Scientist instead. Side ConversationsIf Laura had a dollhouse, it would be made of cheese. One room for fondue, a holey one for swiss, brie, queso, and a fancy charcuterie room. There would even be a cheesy bellboy to take your bags at the door. Kara took her son and a friend to a meet and greet with Last Kids on Earth author Max Brallier. She recaps the time that she and her mother met comedy legend Carrot Top. Laura met acting great Ron Perlman while he was wrapping up Sons of Anarchy and made him smile with a couple jokes. If you enjoyed this podcast, please be sure to subscribe and leave a review on your favorite platform.

An uplifting story about the power of art, finding your voice, and telling your story even when you're out of step with your peers from the #1 bestselling creators of Sofia Valdez, Future Prez and Ada Twist, Scientist! Aaron Slater loves listening to stories and dreams of one day writing them himself. But when it comes to reading, the letters just look like squiggles to him, and it soon becomes clear he struggles more than his peers. When his teacher asks each child in the class to write a story, Aaron can't get a single word down. He is sure his dream of being a storyteller is out of reach . . . until inspiration strikes, and Aaron finds a way to spin a tale in a way that is uniquely his.

Ada Magnífica tiene la cabeza llena de preguntas. Como sus compañeros de clase Pedro y Rosa, Ada siempre ha sentido una curiosidad insaciable. Pero cuando lleva demasiado lejos sus exploraciones y sus complicados experimentos científicos, sus padres se hartan y la mandan al rincón de pensar. ¿Tanto pensar le hará cambiar de opinión?Ha habido mujeres científicas desde que existe la ciencia. Han tratado de buscar respuesta a los grandes secretos del universo. La tierra y las estrellas. Estalactitas y caballitos de mar. Glaciares y gravedad. Cerebros y agujeros negros. A todo. Ada Marie Magnífica lleva el nombre de dos mujeres cuya curiosidad y pasión las condujo a grandes descubrimientos. Marie Curie descubrió dos nuevos elementos, el polonio y el radio, y la invención de los rayos X se debe a su trabajo. Ada Lovelace fue matemática y la primera programadora de la historia .También disponible la edición en inglés, Ada Twist, Scientist.

We're all tired of Zoom meetings, but can you imagine being in 1st grade and trying to learn everything?! Today I get to chat with one of my favorite people, my sister Angie Titus, who is a 1st-grade teacher and is now in the tough place of teaching our future scientists and engineers in the middle of the pandemic. Angie's always poured her heart and soul into her teaching, but now she's working to teach equity and awareness, group dynamics, how to share, and how to read and do math, all while asking 6-year olds to sit still at a computer screen. We had a great conversation about a ton of good resources. Angie recommends you check out these books for the best advice on how to be a bubble gum brain, how to have conversations about race, and how to teach your children the art of inquiry through the hearts and minds of little girls exploring the world. Ada Twist, Scientist Bubble Gum Brain Becoming The Moment of Lift So You Want to Talk About Race Remember to thank a teacher today. In a world turned upside down, their efforts are going to keep our next generation of scientists, engineers, artists, politicians, and master craftswomen and men on track to make the world a better place. I hope you enjoy the conversation!
