Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” is the most famous love story in the Western canon. It's a tale so embedded in our culture — one that has seen so many iterations and retellings — it might feel hard to appreciate its original pathos, and the way it perfectly distills the intersections of young romance, idealism, and rebellion. In this episode, host Rhiannon Giddens and guests take a fresh look at this classic by focusing on the character of Juliet and her pivotal decision to take the friar's draught, a concoction that will help her feign death long enough to escape an arranged marriage and run away with Romeo. It's both an act of tremendous courage and one that sets their tragedy in motion. In Charles Gounod's operatic retelling, the aria Juliet delivers as she wrestles away her fear is so difficult that it's often cut from productions. But it's a pivotal moment, and a testament to Juiet's agency. Soprano Diana Damrau is up to the task, and delivers a rendition of “Amour, ranime mon courage” — otherwise known as the “poison aria” — from the stage of the Metropolitan Opera. THE GUESTS Soprano Diana Damrau is among the most celebrated opera singers of her generation. She's graced the stages of opera houses all over the world, and sung the role of Juliette at both The Metropolitan Opera and La Scala. After her debut as Juliette in 2016, it quickly became a favorite. For her, Gounod's “Roméo et Juliette” is “one of the most beautiful operas ever written.” Yannick Nézet-Séguin serves as music director for the Met Opera orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra, and Montreal's Orchestre Metropolitain, among many other appointments and collaborations with esteemed orchestras. In his opinion, “Roméo et Juliette” beats out “Faust” as Gounod's best opera. Emma Smith is a Shakespeare scholar and critic at the University of Oxford. Among her publications is the book “This Is Shakespeare,” which was a Sunday Times bestseller and has been translated into several languages. Smith frequently works with theater companies on their productions of Shakespeare plays and consults for film and television.Acclaimed British author and theater director Neil Bartlett, whose novels include “The Disappearance Boy” and “Address Book,” directed “Romeo and Juliet” for the Royal Shakespeare Company in London. He says the experience leaves him feeling “wrung dry with admiration.”

In 1998, when the body of a young girl washed up on the shore of the Columbia River in Warrenton, Oregon, it was easy to assume she was another vulnerable person drawn to the Astoria-Megler bridge to end her own life. But her body would tell another story. Authorities had to work quickly to identify her, her killer, and his motive. During the investigation a secret life was uncovered, one that abused and exploited children for years. In today's case, we'll discuss the murder of Heather Fraser and the monster who took her life and negatively impacted dozens of others.

Vilken adress du har kan spegla både vilket liv du lever och hur länge det pågår. Men inte alltid. Journalisten och författaren Katarina Bjärvall reflekterar över postortens avgörande roll. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Sändes första gången 2021-03-08.Var bor du? Den frågan ser oskyldig ut där den dyker upp i en mötespaus, en lekpark eller ett hörn av kalasbordet. Men ofta är den gillrad med underliggande undringar som är mer laddade: Vad tjänar du? Vad har du för utbildning? Och ännu offensivare: Vem tror du att du är?Jag brukar svara med namnet på kommunen där mitt och min familjs lilla radhus råkar ligga, men då kommer motfrågan blixtsnabbt: Var där? Och det är då jag måste gå ner i spagat.Min postort, alltså den där platsen man skriver efter postnumret, är en av Sveriges mest högklassiga. Den signalerar saltstänkta nationalromantiska villor vid havet. På Ica i det lilla centrumet, tolv minuters promenad från oss, är det är allt som oftast rea på hummer. Och kundvagnarna är faktiskt guldlackerade.Men vi har också ett annat centrum, dit det bara är nio minuter och där vår närmaste lokaltågstation ligger. Namnet på stationen och centrumet sänder andra signaler: armerad leda och drogad betong. Inne på den Icabutiken blev en ung man knivskuren för inte så länge sen. Trots att detta centrum ligger närmare havet än det guldlackerade.Så när jag ska tala om var jag bor måste jag vrida upp min socialpsykologiska GPS på maximal finkalibrering. För säger jag namnet på tågstationen riskerar jag att utdefinieras som fattig och lågutbildad. Men säger jag namnet på min postort riskerar jag att placeras i ett högutbildat höginkomsttagarfack, något som kan ge gräddklickar i delar av umgängeslivet – men röda bockar i kanten i kulturarbetarkretsar. Där ger det stilpoäng att bo en miljonprogramsförort.Till och med Sveriges mest förmögna förstår att den fina adresslappen ibland måste kompletteras med en brasklapp. En gång, när jag intervjuade fastighetsmiljardären Sven-Olof Johansson frågade jag var han bor. Han svarade med en av Stockholms dyraste adresser, känd från Monopol – Narvavägen på Östermalm. Fast på fel sida om gatan, la han till, liksom för att blidka mig. Alltså den sidan där fönstren bara har morgonsol.Jag tänker på det när jag läser Deirdre Masks reportagebok The Address Book, vars undertitel förklarar att boken vill avslöja gatuadressens betydelse för identitet, ras, rikedom och makt.Det sägs ju att de tre viktigaste aspekterna att hålla i tankarna när man letar ny bostad är läget, läget och läget. Men som Donald Trump har påpekat så är läget inte alls avgörande – för det kan man förändra, med PR och psykologi. Så som han själv gjorde när han som fastighetsägare i New York kapade åt sig dyrbara adresser till sina kåkar.Ja, det går för sig i New York, där man utan att flytta en meter kan köpa sig en mer imponerande adress. 11 000 dollar kostar det, skriver Mask. Den risk man tar om man har adress Park Avenue fast man bor en bra bit från Park Avenue är, förutom att man framstår som pinsamt fåfäng, förstås att folk inte hittar en. Till exempel ambulansförare. Människor har dött av det skälet.Men på de flesta håll i världen är adresser till salu bara i samma paket som den bostad de hör till. Deirdre Mask själv hittade den perfekta lilla trean med solig uteplats för sig och sin familj i stadsdelen Tottenham i London. Huset låg, skriver hon, mitt i det antagligen mest mångkulturella postnummerområdet i hela Europa, grannarna pysslande om sina blomkrukor, puben på hörnet såg snäll ut och skolan i närheten hade något så superpedagogiskt som ett trädgårdsklassrum. Men familjen Mask avstod ändå, på grund av den rasistiskt klingande gatuadressen: Black Boy Lane.Mina tankar går till Fittja, en förort några mil sydväst om Stockholm. Fittja ligger på ett näs mellan Mälaren och Albysjön – många lägenheter och radhus har glittrande sjöutsikt. Dessutom är kommunikationerna finfina med tunnelbana till stan på en halvtimme. Men området är ändå ett av Stockholms läns minst eftertraktade. Av ungefär samma skäl som området runt min närmaste station: betong. Eller för att uttrycka det ännu hårdare: kortare liv. Det skiljer flera år i förväntad medellivslängd mellan Fittja och Östermalm på samma tunnelbanelinje.Deirdre Mask har också rader av exempel på adresser som är oönskade eftersom de kan leda tankarna till snusk och sex. Jag undrar om inte Fittja avskräcker även av det skälet. Och jag är inte säker på att associationerna blir mindre påtagliga när fakta i frågan presenteras – att platsnamnet och benämningen på kvinnans sköte har samma etymologiska ursprung, våt ängsmark.Annars är ju den svenska vanan att ge platser namn från naturen ett skydd mot det kontroversiella. I Ryssland finns det fortfarande 4 000 gator döpta efter Lenin, i USA kämpar Black Lives Matter och andra för att hitta vänligare namn på platser namngivna efter slaveriets förkämpar under inbördeskriget. I Sverige har vi Linnégator på rätt många platser, något som skulle kunna reta den krets som ser honom som rasbiolog, men mycket mer provocerande än så är det nog inte.Deirdre Masks bok spänner över hela skalan av adresser, från 1 Central Park i New York – som Trump deltog i en krigisk huggsexa om – till platser som faktiskt saknar adress. Där bor dels de hemlösa och dels de förvånansvärt många världen över som har ett stabilt men adresslöst hem – kanske i en kåkstad i någon av världens megastäder, kanske tvärtom på någon av civilisationens fortfarande vita fläckar, till exempel vid grusvägen som går in bortom det tredje majsfältet efter fågelskrämman till vänster om en nedlagd bensinmack i West Virginia. När ambulansen ska hitta dit får de adresslösa ha telefonkontakt med föraren, lyssna efter sirenerna och säga till om ljudet närmar sig eller försvinner.Att sakna adress – eller att ha en skamfylld adress – är naturligtvis ett problem i alla former av officiella kontakter. Men behövs adressen i denna digitala och mobila tid? En lösning som Deirdre Mask föreslår är att den ruta där man ska fylla i sin adress ska bort från alla former av blanketter. Till exempel borde den vara otillåten i samband med rekrytering, på samma sätt som arbetsgivare i en rad amerikanska delstater inte får fråga jobbsökande om de har avtjänat ett fängelsestraff. Var bor du? skulle alltså bli en förbjuden fråga. Inte otänkbart – egentligen en mindre revolution än den tredje ruta som nu finns under rubriken Kön på många blanketter.En annan lösning är att vi alla anstränger oss för att tygla vår amygdala, den mandelformade del av hjärnan som sätter våra fördomar i spel.Jag jobbar hemma. Ofta går jag ut mitt på dagen, kanske till biblioteket i det lilla centrumet nere vid stationen. Då ser jag folk som sitter på bänkarna vid torget och småpratar – har de inget jobb att gå till? Och så promenerar jag upp till golfbanan, inte långt från det andra centrumet, det med guldkundvagnarna – och även där är det folk, har de inget jobb att gå till?Men golfarna kanske jobbar natt som bussförare eller undersköterskor, vad vet jag? Och småpratarna vid torget kanske jobbar natt som läkare på intensiven, vad vet jag?Vad vet jag? Det är alltid den viktigaste frågan. Så mycket viktigare än Var bor du?Katarina Bjärvall, författare och journalist

Today I speak with Deirdre Mask - a writer, lawyer, sometimes academic. Her book "The Address Book" describes the complex stories behind the names and numbers of the roads that we live on. Deirdre describes the influence of the address and the positive and negative consequences that it can bring. I believe most of us have never considered that such a tiny, common detail can tell us so much about the place, people, politics, history. Most of us have never considered that a home address really matters. Time to talk about it! How many people in the world don't have addresses? How can street addresses lift people out of poverty and transform the slums? How can street addresses help to stop an epidemic? What are the benefits and disadvantages of having an address? Would we perceive the space differently if we wouldn't have street names? Are there places where the address is for sale? Street names are about identity, wealth, and race. But most of all they are about power—the power to name, the power to shape history, the power to decide who counts, who doesn't, and why.

Xenial development has still been moving ahead, despite our emphasis on Focal. MMS patches have finally been applied. Josele and Lionel Duboeuf are thanked for their work on that. This will allow operation of a download?re-download button when an MMS comes in. That was a complicated process to manage, involving many different components, which needed to operate together. There has been some work done on mediahub client. This is the main mechanism for video and audio playback. Alberto has changed the media client library for it so that it is fully implemented in Qt and C++. In the future it will allow for simultaneous playback of videos. An obvious application for that would be in Teleports, where in a channel containing a lot of videos, they could autoplay as you scroll. There are several more steps needed for implementation of a feature like that but what has been done provides the foundation. Sensorfw for Android 9 has been included now. It now covers magnetometer and compass. It has already been established that it works with Waydroid. Microphone access has been incorporated into the browser. The permissions dialog has been implemented, allowing it to function. Google accounts have been restored, allowing sync of contacts and calendar. All of this stuff will be in OTA-21, which goes out for testing on 22 December. Before moving on to 20.04 news there were some other updates. Our permissions system has had some problems with Halium and some work has been done on that. On Android 9 devices, the prompt to allow use of the camera was not working and now has been fixed. The fix can be ported back to 7.1 but porters will have to apply a kernel change. The camera will work in devices which don't have the prompt but that is because of a workaround that allowed the camera without permission. That change needs a bit of tweaking and adaptation, so it will not make OTA-21. Thanks to Guido we now have metapackages for 20.04. The importance of that is that it will make building UT images hugely less complicated. Work has been done on Messaging, Phone and Address Book core apps to update their legion of dependancies. A new version of ofonophoneSIM has been packaged. If you have a virtual build, this component will be able to send messages without the corresponding phone hardware. The ofono community made this new upgrade.

Warhol always said we'd get 15 minutes of fame, but now we have social media and shame's the game. Other topics include Colin Powell and click-bait headlines, how INANE can be used to sooth infants, why MLB needs to change their playoff format to seeded teams, why we love tv shows that include characters we love to hate, why phone numbers are no longer burned into our memory, a social experiment using a special custom ringtone, and the power of three simple words: I Love You.
In this episode, we talk with Cayla a.k.a. the @bookitqueen about all the interesting facts and stories from The Address Book by Deidre Mask. We were surprised by all of the political and social implications of street addresses and numbers and loved how we got to know the world a little bit better with this book. We discuss the effects of GPS on memory, funny street names(A** Crack Lane), early 2000's nostalgia and even the Quaker Oats guy controversy. This conversation shows how curiosity builds in unexpected ways!

Why do street addresses matter? Author Deirdre Mask joins us to talk about her book, The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal About Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power. In this fascinating look at the history and impact of addresses from West Virginia to Kolkata and everywhere in between, we ask: why are some people resistant to having an address? How can addresses prevent public health crises? Is being unreachable a new status symbol? Will digital addresses become a thing? All that and more! Plus, we celebrate being back in the studio together for the first time in 14+ months, Sarah is mostly uninterested in thinking about the future, and Laura needs more snacks.

Vilken adress du har kan spegla både vilket liv du lever och hur länge det pågår. Men inte alltid. Journalisten och författaren Katarina Bjärvall reflekterar över postortens avgörande roll. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Var bor du? Den frågan ser oskyldig ut där den dyker upp i en mötespaus, en lekpark eller ett hörn av kalasbordet. Men ofta är den gillrad med underliggande undringar som är mer laddade: Vad tjänar du? Vad har du för utbildning? Och ännu offensivare: Vem tror du att du är? Jag brukar svara med namnet på kommunen där mitt och min familjs lilla radhus råkar ligga, men då kommer motfrågan blixtsnabbt: Var där? Och det är då jag måste gå ner i spagat. Min postort, alltså den där platsen man skriver efter postnumret, är en av Sveriges mest högklassiga. Den signalerar saltstänkta nationalromantiska villor vid havet. På Ica i det lilla centrumet, tolv minuters promenad från oss, är det är allt som oftast rea på hummer. Och kundvagnarna är faktiskt guldlackerade. Men vi har också ett annat centrum, dit det bara är nio minuter och där vår närmaste lokaltågstation ligger. Namnet på stationen och centrumet sänder andra signaler: armerad leda och drogad betong. Inne på den Icabutiken blev en ung man knivskuren för inte så länge sen. Trots att detta centrum ligger närmare havet än det guldlackerade. Så när jag ska tala om var jag bor måste jag vrida upp min socialpsykologiska GPS på maximal finkalibrering. För säger jag namnet på tågstationen riskerar jag att utdefinieras som fattig och lågutbildad. Men säger jag namnet på min postort riskerar jag att placeras i ett högutbildat höginkomsttagarfack, något som kan ge gräddklickar i delar av umgängeslivet men röda bockar i kanten i kulturarbetarkretsar. Där ger det stilpoäng att bo en miljonprogramsförort. Till och med Sveriges mest förmögna förstår att den fina adresslappen ibland måste kompletteras med en brasklapp. En gång, när jag intervjuade fastighetsmiljardären Sven-Olof Johansson frågade jag var han bor. Han svarade med en av Stockholms dyraste adresser, känd från Monopol Narvavägen på Östermalm. Fast på fel sida om gatan, la han till, liksom för att blidka mig. Alltså den sidan där fönstren bara har morgonsol. Jag tänker på det när jag läser Deirdre Masks reportagebok The Address Book, vars undertitel förklarar att boken vill avslöja gatuadressens betydelse för identitet, ras, rikedom och makt. Det sägs ju att de tre viktigaste aspekterna att hålla i tankarna när man letar ny bostad är läget, läget och läget. Men som Donald Trump har påpekat så är läget inte alls avgörande för det kan man förändra, med PR och psykologi. Så som han själv gjorde när han som fastighetsägare i New York kapade åt sig dyrbara adresser till sina kåkar. Ja, det går för sig i New York, där man utan att flytta en meter kan köpa sig en mer imponerande adress. 11 000 dollar kostar det, skriver Mask. Den risk man tar om man har adress Park Avenue fast man bor en bra bit från Park Avenue är, förutom att man framstår som pinsamt fåfäng, förstås att folk inte hittar en. Till exempel ambulansförare. Människor har dött av det skälet. Men på de flesta håll i världen är adresser till salu bara i samma paket som den bostad de hör till. Deirdre Mask själv hittade den perfekta lilla trean med solig uteplats för sig och sin familj i stadsdelen Tottenham i London. Huset låg, skriver hon, mitt i det antagligen mest mångkulturella postnummerområdet i hela Europa, grannarna pysslande om sina blomkrukor, puben på hörnet såg snäll ut och skolan i närheten hade något så superpedagogiskt som ett trädgårdsklassrum. Men familjen Mask avstod ändå, på grund av den rasistiskt klingande gatuadressen: Black Boy Lane. Mina tankar går till Fittja, en förort några mil sydväst om Stockholm. Fittja ligger på ett näs mellan Mälaren och Albysjön många lägenheter och radhus har glittrande sjöutsikt. Dessutom är kommunikationerna finfina med tunnelbana till stan på en halvtimme. Men området är ändå ett av Stockholms läns minst eftertraktade. Av ungefär samma skäl som området runt min närmaste station: betong. Eller för att uttrycka det ännu hårdare: kortare liv. Det skiljer flera år i förväntad medellivslängd mellan Fittja och Östermalm på samma tunnelbanelinje. Deirdre Mask har också rader av exempel på adresser som är oönskade eftersom de kan leda tankarna till snusk och sex. Jag undrar om inte Fittja avskräcker även av det skälet. Och jag är inte säker på att associationerna blir mindre påtagliga när fakta i frågan presenteras att platsnamnet och benämningen på kvinnans sköte har samma etymologiska ursprung, våt ängsmark. Annars är ju den svenska vanan att ge platser namn från naturen ett skydd mot det kontroversiella. I Ryssland finns det fortfarande 4 000 gator döpta efter Lenin, i USA kämpar Black Lives Matter och andra för att hitta vänligare namn på platser namngivna efter slaveriets förkämpar under inbördeskriget. I Sverige har vi Linnégator på rätt många platser, något som skulle kunna reta den krets som ser honom som rasbiolog, men mycket mer provocerande än så är det nog inte. Deirdre Masks bok spänner över hela skalan av adresser, från 1 Central Park i New York som Trump deltog i en krigisk huggsexa om till platser som faktiskt saknar adress. Där bor dels de hemlösa och dels de förvånansvärt många världen över som har ett stabilt men adresslöst hem kanske i en kåkstad i någon av världens megastäder, kanske tvärtom på någon av civilisationens fortfarande vita fläckar, till exempel vid grusvägen som går in bortom det tredje majsfältet efter fågelskrämman till vänster om en nedlagd bensinmack i West Virginia. När ambulansen ska hitta dit får de adresslösa ha telefonkontakt med föraren, lyssna efter sirenerna och säga till om ljudet närmar sig eller försvinner. Att sakna adress eller att ha en skamfylld adress är naturligtvis ett problem i alla former av officiella kontakter. Men behövs adressen i denna digitala och mobila tid? En lösning som Deirdre Mask föreslår är att den ruta där man ska fylla i sin adress ska bort från alla former av blanketter. Till exempel borde den vara otillåten i samband med rekrytering, på samma sätt som arbetsgivare i en rad amerikanska delstater inte får fråga jobbsökande om de har avtjänat ett fängelsestraff. Var bor du? skulle alltså bli en förbjuden fråga. Inte otänkbart egentligen en mindre revolution än den tredje ruta som nu finns under rubriken Kön på många blanketter. En annan lösning är att vi alla anstränger oss för att tygla vår amygdala, den mandelformade del av hjärnan som sätter våra fördomar i spel. Jag jobbar hemma. Ofta går jag ut mitt på dagen, kanske till biblioteket i det lilla centrumet nere vid stationen. Då ser jag folk som sitter på bänkarna vid torget och småpratar har de inget jobb att gå till? Och så promenerar jag upp till golfbanan, inte långt från det andra centrumet, det med guldkundvagnarna och även där är det folk, har de inget jobb att gå till? Men golfarna kanske jobbar natt som bussförare eller undersköterskor, vad vet jag? Och småpratarna vid torget kanske jobbar natt som läkare på intensiven, vad vet jag? Vad vet jag? Det är alltid den viktigaste frågan. Så mycket viktigare än Var bor du? Katarina Bjärvall, författare och journalist

Steve Jobs left Apple in 1985. He co-founded NeXT Computers and took Pixar public. He then returned to Apple as the interim CEO in 1997 at a salary of $1 per year. Some of the early accomplishments on his watch were started before he got there. But turning the company back around was squarely on him and his team. By the end of 1997, Apple moved to a build-to-order manufacturing powered by an online store built on WebObjects, the NeXT application server. They killed off a number of models, simplifying the lineup of products and also killed the clone deals, ending licensing of the operating system to other vendors who were at times building sub-par products. And they were busy. You could feel the frenetic pace. They were busy at work weaving the raw components from NeXT into an operating system that would be called Mac OS X. They announced a partnership that would see Microsoft invest $150 million into Apple to settle patent disputes but that Microsoft would get Internet Explorer bundled on the Mac and give a commitment to release Office for the Mac again. By then, Apple had $1.2 billion in cash reserves again, but armed with a streamlined company that was ready to move forward - but 1998 was a bottoming out of sorts, with Apple only doing just shy of $6 billion in revenue. To move forward, they took a little lesson from the past and released a new all-in-one computer. One that put the color back into that Apple logo. Or rather removed all the colors but Aqua blue from it. The return of Steve Jobs invigorated many, such as Johnny Ive who is reported to have had a resignation in his back pocket when he met Jobs. Their collaboration led to a number of innovations, with a furious pace starting with the iMac. The first iMacs were shaped like gumdrops and the color of candy as well. The original Bondi blue had commercials showing all the cords in a typical PC setup and then the new iMac, “as unPC as you can get.” The iMac was supposed to be to get on the Internet. But the ensuing upgrades allowed for far more than that. The iMac put style back into Apple and even computers. Subsequent releases came in candy colors like Lime, Strawberry, Blueberry, Grape, Tangerine, and later on Blue Dalmatian and Flower Power. The G3 chipset bled out into other more professional products like a blue and white G3 tower, which featured a slightly faster processor than the beige tower G3, but a much cooler look - and very easy to get into compared to any other machine on the market at the time. And the Clamshell laptops used the same design language. Playful, colorful, but mostly as fast as their traditional PowerBook counterparts. But the team had their eye on a new strategy entirely. Yes, people wanted to get online - but these computers could do so much more. Apple wanted to make the Mac the Digital Hub for content. This centered around a technology that had been codeveloped from Apple, Sony, Panasonic, and others called IEEE 1394. But that was kinda' boring so we just called it Firewire. Begun in 1986 and originally started by Apple, Firewire had become a port that was on most digital cameras at the time. USB wasn't fast enough to load and unload a lot of newer content like audio and video from cameras to computers. But I can clearly remember that by the year 1999 we were all living as Jobs put it in a “new emerging digital lifestyle.” This led to a number of releases from Apple. One was iMovie. Apple included it with the new iMac DV model for free. That model dumped the fan (which Jobs never liked even going back to the early days of Apple) as well as FireWire and the ability to add an AirPort card. Oh, and they released an AirPort base station in 1999 to help people get online easily. It is still one of the simplest router and wi-fi devices I've ever used. And was sleek with the new Graphite design language that would take Apple through for years on their professional devices. iMovie was a single place to load all those digital videos and turn them into something else. And there was another format on the rise, MP3. Most everyone I've ever known at Apple love music. It's in the DNA of the company, going back to Wozniak and Jobs and their love of musicians like Bob Dylan in the 1970s. The rise of the transistor radio and then the cassette and Walkman had opened our eyes to the democratization of what we could listen to as humans. But the MP3 format, which had been around since 1993, was on the rise. People were ripping and trading songs and Apple looked at a tool called Audion and another called SoundJam and decided that rather than Sherlock (or build that into the OS) that they would buy SoundJam in 2000. The new software, which they called iTunes, allowed users to rip and burn CDs easily. Apple then added iPhoto, iWeb, and iDVD. For photos, creating web sites, and making DVDs respectively. The digital hub was coming together. But there was another very important part of that whole digital hub strategy. Now that we had music on our computers we needed something more portable to listen to that music on. There were MP3 players like the Diamond Rio out there, and there had been going back to the waning days of the Digital Equipment Research Lab - but they were either clunky or had poor design or just crappy and cheap. And mostly only held an album or two. I remember walking down that isle at Fry's about once every other month waiting and hoping. But nothing good ever came. That is, until Jobs and the Apple hardware engineering lead Job Rubinstein found Tony Fadell. He had been at General Magic, you know, the company that ushered in mobility as an industry. And he'd built Windows CE mobile devices for Philips in the Velo and Nino. But when we got him working with Jobs, Rubinstein, and Johnny Ive on the industrial design front, we got one of the most iconic devices ever made: the iPod. And the iPod wasn't all that different on the inside from a Newton. Blasphemy I know. It sported a pair of ARM chips and Ive harkened back to simpler times when he based the design on a transistor radio. Attention to detail and the lack thereof in the Sony Diskman propelled Apple to sell more than 400 million iPods to this day. By the time the iPod was released in 2001, Apple revenues had jumped to just shy of $8 billion but dropped back down to $5.3. But everything was about to change. And part of that was that the iPod design language was about to leak out to the rest of the products with white iBooks, white Mac Minis, and other white devices as a design language of sorts. To sell all those iDevices, Apple embarked on a strategy that seemed crazy at the time. They opened retail stores. They hired Ron Johnson and opened two stores in 2001. They would grow to over 500 stores, and hit a billion in sales within three years. Johnson had been the VP of merchandising at Target and with the teams at Apple came up with the idea of taking payment without cash registers (after all you have an internet connected device you want to sell people) and the Genius Bar. And generations of devices came that led people back into the stores. The G4 came along - as did faster RAM. And while Apple was updating the classic Mac operating system, they were also hard at work preparing NeXT to go across the full line of computers. They had been working the bugs out in Rhapsody and then Mac OS X Server, but the client OS, Codenamed Kodiak, went into beta in 2000 and then was released as a dual-boot option in Cheetah, in 2001. And thus began a long line of big cats, going to Puma then Jaguar in 2002, Panther in 2003, Tiger in 2005, Leopard in 2007, Snow Leopard in 2009, Lion in 2011, Mountain Lion in 2012 before moving to the new naming scheme that uses famous places in California. Mac OS X finally provided a ground-up, modern, object-oriented operating system. They built the Aqua interface on top of it. Beautiful, modern, sleek. Even the backgrounds! The iMac would go from a gumdrop to a sleek flat panel on a metal stand, like a sunflower. Jobs and Ive are both named on the patents for this as well as many of the other inventions that came along in support of the rapid device rollouts of the day. Jaguar, or 10.2, would turn out to be a big update. They added Address Book, iChat - now called Messages, and after nearly two decades replaced the 8-bit Happy Mac with a grey Apple logo in 2002. Yet another sign they were no longer just a computer company. Some of these needed a server and storage so Apple released the Xserve in 2002 and the Xserve RAID in 2003. The pro devices also started to transition from the grey graphite look to brushed metal, which we still use today. Many wanted to step beyond just listening to music. There were expensive tools for creating music, like ProTools. And don't get me wrong, you get what you pay for. It's awesome. But democratizing the creation of media meant Apple wanted a piece of software to create digital audio - and released Garage Band in 2004. For this they again turned to an acquisition, EMagic, which had a tool called Logic Audio. I still use Logic to cut my podcasts. But with Garage Band they stripped it down to the essentials and released a tool that proved wildly popular, providing an on-ramp for many into the audio engineering space. Not every project worked out. Apple had ups and downs in revenue and sales in the early part of the millennium. The G4 Cube was released in 2000 and while it is hailed as one of the greatest designs by industrial designers it was discontinued in 2001 due to low sales. But Steve Jobs had been hard at work on something new. Those iPods that were becoming the cash cow at Apple and changing the world, turning people into white earbud-clad zombies spinning those click wheels were about to get an easier way to put media into iTunes and so on the device. The iTunes Store was released in 2003. Here, Jobs parlayed the success at Apple along with his own brand to twist the arms of executives from the big 5 record labels to finally allow digital music to be sold online. Each song was a dollar. Suddenly it was cheap enough that the music trading apps just couldn't keep up. Today it seems like everyone just pays a streaming subscription but for a time, it gave a shot in the arm to music companies and gave us all this new-found expectation that we would always be able to have music that we wanted to hear on-demand. Apple revenue was back up to $8.25 billion in 2004. But Apple was just getting started. The next seven years would see that revenue climb from to $13.9 billion in 2005, $19.3 in 2006, $24 billion in 2007, $32.4 in 2008, $42.9 in 2009, $65.2 in 2010, and a staggering $108.2 in 2011. After working with the PowerPC chipset, Apple transitioned new computers to Intel chips in 2005 and 2006. Keep in mind that most people used desktops at the time and just wanted fast. And it was the era where the Mac was really open source friendly so having the ability to load in the best the Linux and Unix worlds had to offer for software inside projects or on servers was made all the easier. But Intel could produce chips faster and were moving faster. That Intel transition also helped with what we call the “App Gap” where applications written for Windows could be virtualized for the Mac. This helped the Mac get much more adoption in businesses. Again, the pace was frenetic. People had been almost begging Apple to release a phone for years. The Windows Mobile devices, the Blackberry, the flip phones, even the Palm Treo. They were all crap in Jobs' mind. Even the Rockr that had iTunes in it was crap. So Apple released the iPhone in 2007 in a now-iconic Jobs presentation. The early version didn't have apps, but it was instantly one of the more saught-after gadgets. And in an era where people paid $100 to $200 for phones it changed the way we thought of the devices. In fact, the push notifications and app culture and always on fulfilled the General Magic dream that the Newton never could and truly moved us all into an always-on i (or Internet) culture. The Apple TV was also released in 2007. I can still remember people talking about Apple releasing a television at the time. The same way they talk about Apple releasing a car. It wasn't a television though, it was a small whitish box that resembled a Mac Mini - just with a different media-browsing type of Finder. Now it's effectively an app to bootstrap the media apps on a Mac. It had been a blistering 10 years. We didn't even get into Pages, FaceTime, They weren't done just yet. The iPad was released in 2010. By then, Apple revenues exceeded those of Microsoft. The return and the comeback was truly complete. Similar technology used to build the Apple online store was also used to develop the iTunes Store and then the App Store in 2008. Here, rather than go to a site you might not trust and download an installer file with crazy levels of permissions. One place where it's still a work in progress to this day was iTools, released in 2000 and rebranded to .Mac or dot Mac in 2008, and now called MobileMe. Apple's vision to sync all of our data between our myriad of devices wirelessly was a work in progress and never met the lofty goals set out. Some services, like Find My iPhone, work great. Others notsomuch. Jobs famously fired the team lead at one point. And while it's better than it was it's still not where it needs to be. Steve Jobs passed away in 2011 at 56 years old. His first act at Apple changed the world, ushering in first the personal computing revolution and then the graphical interface revolution. He left an Apple that meant something. He returned to a demoralized Apple and brought digital media, portable music players, the iPhone, the iPad, the Apple TV, the iMac, the online music store, the online App Store, and so much more. The world had changed in that time, so he left, well, one more thing. You see, when they started, privacy and security wasn't much of a thing. Keep in mind, computers didn't have hard drives. The early days of the Internet after his return was a fairly save I or Internet world. But by the time he passed away there there were some troubling trends. The data on our phones and computers could weave together nearly every bit of our life to an outsider. Not only could this lead to identity theft but with the growing advertising networks and machine learning capabilities, the consequences of privacy breaches on Apple products could be profound as a society. He left an ethos behind to build great products but not at the expense of those who buy them. One his successor Tim Cook has maintained. On the outside it may seem like the daunting 10 plus years of product releases has slowed. We still have the Macbook, the iMac, a tower, a mini, an iPhone, an iPad, an Apple TV. We now have HomeKit, a HomePod, new models of all those devices, Apple silicon, and some new headphones - but more importantly we've had to retreat a bit internally and direct some of those product development cycles to privacy, protecting users, shoring up the security model. Managing a vast portfolio of products in the largest company in the world means doing those things isn't always altruistic. Big companies can mean big law suits when things go wrong. These will come up as we cover the history of the individual devices in greater detail. The history of computing is full of stories of great innovators. Very few took a second act. Few, if any, had as impactful a first act as either that Steve Jobs had. It wasn't just him in any of these. There are countless people from software developers to support representatives to product marketing gurus to the people that write the documentation. It was all of them, working with inspiring leadership and world class products that helped as much as any other organization in the history of computing, to shape the digital world we live in today.

This episode of The Poetry Podcast features a poem about, possibly the oldest thing in anyone’s house, the family address book.
We take regular postal addresses for granted in parts of the world, so it was thought provoking for us to consider how it is just another form of invisible privilege. We speak to the author of the brilliant tome the Address book about what your address can reveal your race and class. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
An address is something many people take for granted today, but they are in fact a fairly recent invention that has shaped our cities and taken on great political importance. Deirdre Mask is the author of The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal About Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power, which looks at all the ways the world has changed since the popularization of street addresses during the Enlightenment. The book examines how addresses impact wealth and poverty, and how they serve as proxies for our most contentious debates. Mask also explores a digital future where we aren't reliant on the numbers on our homes to tell us where we are or where we're going. The Address Book Order The 99% Invisible City

We don't really notice street addresses, but they're integral to how modern society works. They've become integral to our identity in ways we don't really notice... until we don't have one. But where did street addresses come from? Who decides what names or words can be addresses? And how does a government's approach to addresses impact its people? This week host Rachelle Saunders speaks with lawyer and writer Deirdre Mask about her new book "The Address Book: What Street Addresses Reveal About Identity, Race, Wealth, and Power".
When Brigitte Benkemoun bought a leather diary case from eBay, she did not expect to find a small address book tucked into the back. And she certainly didn’t expect that book to contain the names of some of the most renowned figures of 20th century Paris—names like André Breton, Brassaï, Jean Cocteau, and Jacques Lacan.

Apple Lore: The Pinks Versus The Blue Meanies Welcome to the History of Computing Podcast, where we explore the history of information technology. Because understanding the past prepares us for the innovations of the future! Today we're going to cover two engineering groups at Apple: The Pinks and the Blue Meanies. The Mac OS System 6 had been the sixth operating system released in five years. By 1988, Apple was keeping up an unrealistic release cadence, especially given that the operating system had come along at an interesting time when a lot of transitions were happening in IT, and there were lot of increasingly complex problems trying to code around earlier learning opportunities. After sweeping the joint for bugs, Apple held an offsite engineering meeting in Pescadero and split the ideas for the next operating system into two colors of cards: pink, red, green, and blue. The most important of these for this episode were pink, or future release stuff and blue, or next release, stuff. The notecards were blue. The architects of blue were horrible, arrogant self-proclaimed bastards. They'd all seen Yellow Submarine and so they went with the evil Pepperland Blue Meanies. As architects, they were the ones who often said no to things. The Blue Meanies ended up writing much of the core of System 7. They called this OS, which took 3 years to complete, The Big Bang. It would last on the market for 6 years. Longer than any operating system from Apple did prior or since. System 7 gave us CDs, File Sharing, began the migration to a 32-bit OS, replaced MacroMaker with AppleScript and Apple Events and the Extensions Manager, which we're likely to see a return of given the pace Apple's going these days. System 7.0.1 came with an Easter egg. If you typed in Help! Help! We're being held prisoner in a system software factory! You got a list of names: Darin Adler Scott Boyd Chris Derossi Cynthia Jasper Brian McGhie Greg Marriott Beatrice Sochor Dean Yu The later iterations of the file ended “Who dares wins” Pink was meant to get more than incremental gains. They wanted coorperative multitasking. The people who really pushed for this were senior engineers Bayles Holt, David Goldsmith, Gene Pope, Erich Ringewald, and Gerard Schutten, referred to as the Gang of Five. They had their pink cards and knew that what was on them was critical, or Apple might have to go out and buy some other company to get the next really operating system. They insisted that they be given the time to build this new operating system and traded their managers to the blue meanies for the chance to build the preemptive multitasking and a more component-based, or object-oriented applications esgn. They got Mike Potel as their manager. They worked in a separate location looking to launch their new operating system in two years. The code named as Defiant, given that Pink just wasn't awesome. They shared space with the Newton geeks. Given that they had two years and they saw the technical debt in System 6 as considerable, they had to decide if they were going to build a new OS from the ground up, or build on top of the System 6. They pulled in the Advanced Technology Group, another team at Apple, and got up to 11 people. They ended up starting over with a new microkernel they called Opus. Big words. The Pink staff ended up pulling in ideas from other cards and got up to about 25 people. From there, it went a little off the rail and turf wars set in. It kept growing. 100 engineers. They were secretive. They eventually grew to 150 people by 1990. Remember, two years. And the further out they got the less likely that the code would ever be backwards compatible. The Pink GUI used isometric icons, rounded windows, drop shadows, beveling, was fully internationalized, and were huge influences in Mac OS 8 and Copland. Even IBM was impressed by the work being done on Pink and in 1991 they entered an alliance with Apple to help take on what was quickly becoming a Microsoft Monopoly. They planned to bring this new OS to the market as a new company called Taligent in the mid-90s. Just two more years. In 1992, Taligent moved out of Apple with 170 employees, and Joe Guglielmi, who had once led the OS/2 team and had been a marketing exec at IBM for 30 years. By then, this one one of 5 partnerships between Apple and IBM, something that starts and stops every now and then up to today. It was an era of turf wars and empire building. But it was the era of Object orientation. Since Smalltalk, this had been a key aspect in higher level languages such as Java and in the AS/400. IBM had already done it with OS/2 and AIX. By 1993 there was suspicion. Again they grow, now to over 250 people, but they really just needed two more years, guys. Apple actually released an object-oriented SDK called Bedrock to migrate from System 7 to Pink, which could work also work with Windows 3.1, NT, and OS/2. Before you know it they were building a development environment on AIX and porting frameworks to HP-UX, OS/2, Windows. By 1994 the apps could finally run on an IBM RS/6000 running AIX. The buzz continued. Ish. 1994 saw HP take on 15% of the company and add Smalltalk into the mix. HP brought new compilers into the portfolio, and needed native functionality. The development environment was renamed to cq professional and the User Interface builder was changed to cqconstructor. TalAE became CommonPoint. TalOS was scheduled to ship in 1996. Just two more years. The world wanted to switch away from monolithic apps and definitely away from procedural apps. It still does. Every attempt to do so just takes two more years. Then and now. That's what we call “Enterprise Software” and as with anyone who's ok with such pace, Joe Guglielmi left Taligent in 1995. Let's review where we are. There's no real shipping OS. There's an IDE but C++ programmers would need 3 months training to get up to speed on Taligent. Most needed a week or two class to learn Java, if that. Steve Jobs had aligned with Sun in OpenStep. So Apple was getting closer and closer to IBM. But System 7 was too big a dog to run Taligent. Debbie Coutant became CEO towards the end of the year. HP and Apple sold their stake in the company which was then up to 375 employees. Over half were laid off and the organization was wrapped into IBM as would be focusing on… Java. Commonpoint would be distributed across IBM products where possible. Taligent themselves would be key to the Java work done at IBM. By then IBM was a services first organization anyways, so it kinda' all makes sense. TalOS was demoed in 1996 but never released. It was unique. It was object oriented from the ground up. It was an inspiration of a new era of interfaces. It was special. But it never shipped. Mac OS 8 was released in 1997. Better late than never. But it was clear that there was no more runway left in the code that had been getting bigger and meaner. They needed a strategy. The final Taligent employees got sucked into IBM that year, ending a fascinating drama in operating systems and frameworks. Whatever the behind baseball story, Apple decided to bring Steve Jobs back in, in 1997. And he brought NeXT, which gave the Mac all the object-oriented neediness they wanted. They got Objective-C, Mach (through Avie Tevanian of Carnegie Mellon), Property Lists, AppWrappers (.app), Workspace Manager (which begat the Finder), The Dock, and NetInfo. And they finally retired the Apple Bonkers server. But as importantly as anything else, they got Bertrand Serlet and Craig Federighi - who as the next major VPs of Software were able to keep the ship in the right direction and by 2001 they gave us 10.0: Cheetah * Darwin (kinda' like Unix) with Terminal * Mail, Address Book, iTunes * AppleScript survived, AppleTalk didn't * Aqua UI, Carbon and Cocoa APIs * AFP over TCP/IP, HTTP, SSH, and FTP server/client * Native PDF Support It began a nearly 20 year journey that we are still on. So in the end, the Pinks never shipped an operating system, despite their best intentions. And the Blues never paid down their technical debt. Despite their best intentions. As engineers, we need a plan. We need to ship incrementally. We need good, sane cultures that can work together. We need to pay down technical debt - but we don't need to run amuck building technology that's a little ahead of our time. Even if it's always just two more years ahead of our time. And I think we're at time gentle listeners. And I hope it doesn't take me two years to ship this, gentle listeners. But if it does or doesn't, thanks for tuning into another episode of the History of Computing Podcast. We're lucky to have you. Have a great day!

Graphic designers face unique business challenges every single day. If you are just getting your design business started or you have been working at it for a while now I want to share a few tips... ►►►Get the Checklist and Join the Facebook Group below. ► Click here to download the Design Business Checklist! ( http://bit.ly/designbusinesschecklist ) ►Join The Design Brief Facebook Group to be a part of a community of designers looking to grow their careers and businesses! ( http://bit.ly/thedesignbrief ) As graphic designers, we have the unique problem of subjective clients. What I mean by this is that everyone has their ideas of how something should look, the process of how the creative process should work, and how to give feedback that is intuitive and helpful. I made this video to discuss some problems I see every day as a graphic designer with nearly a decade of experience in the industry. I am now a digital marketing manager handling the brunt of client relations and I have found that there are far more administrative challenges to deal with in a design/creative oriented business than there are design challenges. If you are thinking of starting a graphic design business, trust me when I say, the design aspect will be the least of your worries. You need to make sure you have a solid foundation that involves great client communication, a killer onboarding process, and a way to manage your projects efficiently and accurately. When you do this right it will give you more time to do what you love. ACTUALLY DESIGN. I want to list out 4 issues I find common for graphic designers and how to solve them. 1. My clients don't list. You need to listen to them first. I think a lot of times we are surprised when we have a “bad client” but chances are they were a bad client from the start, we were just so excited to have a client that we missed all of the social and verbal cues. 2. Where is that photo, design file, email address? Disorganization is a HUGE hurdle for designers. The key to solving this problem is a proper folder structure that you commit to. If you do not commit to a rock solid folder structure than your project management will quickly get out of whack and you will be hard-pressed to recover from a disorganized mess! 3. Where is that project at? Project Management tools, Client infosheets, calendar reminders, and assignments. (this is kind of like a high-tech version of your grammas Address Book, do you remember those?!) A Project Management suite will allow you to quickly manage your clients at a glance. This will help you increase the efficiency of your workflow which is what will ultimately allow you to scale your design business. Without scalability, your business will never grow, outside of you working 16 - 18 hours a day! 4. Are we in charge of that for the client? Get a contract and get it signed ASAP! This is something that I find new graphic design business owners overlooking more than experienced business. You can easily be taken advantage of by a client who just wants a little bit more of this and a little bit more of that. They will say, "How about we just add this design element?" or "Can I get another quick social media asset?" This will burn through your time and energy. Leaving you underpaid and overwhelmed. It is so important to get a contract signed on the agreed-upon terms that way inf the client does want a change you can refer to the contract and offer the opportunity to "Add it to the contract". This not only keeps you from overworking yourself, but it gives you a great opportunity to upsell the client, WINNING! #TheDesignBrief #BenGKaiser DISCLAIMER: ALL LINKS IN DESCRIPTION ARE AFFILIATE LINKS Thanks for Supporting Our Channel! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/bengkaiser/support

Dr. V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai, the inventor of email and polymath, holds four degrees from MIT, is a world-renowned systems scientist, inventor and entrepreneur. He is a Fulbright Scholar, Lemelson-MIT Awards Finalist, India’s First Outstanding Scientist and Technologist of Indian Origin, Westinghouse Science Talent Honors Award recipient, and a nominee for the U.S. National Medal of Technology and Innovation. His love of medicine and complex systems began in India when he became intrigued with medicine at the age of five as he observed his grandmother, a farmer and healer in the small village of Muhavur in South India, apply Siddha, India’s oldest system traditional medicine, to heal and support local villagers. These early experiences inspired him to pursue the study of modern systems science, information technology and eastern and traditional systems of medicine to develop an integrative framework linking eastern and western systems of medicine. In 1978, as a precocious 14-year-old, after completing a special program in computer science at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Science at NYU, Ayyadurai was recruited by the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) as a Research Fellow, where he developed the first electronic emulation of the entire interoffice mail system (Inbox, Outbox, Folders, Address Book, Memo, etc.), which he named “EMAIL,” to invent the world’s first email system, resulting in him being awarded the first United States Copyright for Email, Computer Program for Electronic Mail System, at a time when Copyright was the only protection for software inventions.
V.A. Shiva Ayyadurai, the inventor of email and other revolutionary innovations, has been passionately interested in science and technology throughout his life. This passion has earned Shiva high honors in the academic and corporate worlds. It has also given him an opportunity to confront the financial and power dynamics that affect scientific innovation, especially when innovation arises from sources considered outside the mainstream - as Shiva, in fact, proudly considers himself to be. Born in Mumbai in 1963, at the age of five Shiva began observing his grandmother -- a farmer and healer in the small village of Muhavur, in South India - as she applied Siddha, India's oldest system of traditional medicine, to heal and support local villagers. He saw how his grandmother’s work was a multi-faceted, comprehensive system that impacted her patients physically, mentally, and even spiritually. When Shiva’s family immigrated to the United States, those early experiences inspired him to pursue the study of modern systems science and information technology. He has never lost touch with India’s healing traditions, and much of his work has been directed toward integrating the tools and techniques of East and West. At the age of 14, after completing a special program in computer science at New York University’s Courant Institute of Mathematical Science, Shiva was recruited by the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey as a Research Fellow. His mentor at UMDNJ soon presented Shiva with a difficult but irresistible challenge. Shiva was asked to create an electronic equivalent of the interoffice mail system, in which hard copies of documents were circulated throughout an office environment. The interoffice mail system was standard operating procedure in literally millions of companies, hospitals, schools, and other institutions around the world. It was literally everywhere. And in practice, preparing interoffice mail was virtually always tasked to female secretaries or assistants in service of their male bosses and managers. Shiva understood this assignment in human terms as well in a scientific context. Creating an electronic alternative to interoffice mail would be not only a technical advance, but also a revolutionary work-saving innovation that would benefit everyone from secretaries to CEOs. After writing 50,000 lines of computer code, Shiva introduced the world’s first true email system, incorporating Inbox and Outbox, Folders, Address Book, Memo, and other now-familiar features of every email system. He named the system “EMAIL,” and was awarded the first United States Copyright for “Email, Computer Program for Electronic Mail System.” This legally recognized Shiva as the inventor of email, at a time when Copyright was the only protection for software inventions. Since then Shiva Ayyadurai has become a world-renowned systems scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur. He has been a Fulbright Scholar, Lemelson-MIT Awards Finalist, India’s First Outstanding Scientist and Technologist of Indian Origin, Westinghouse Science Talent Honors Award recipient, and a nominee for the U.S. National Medal of Technology and Innovation. Shiva has earned four degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), including a Bachelor’s in electrical engineering and computer science, and a dual Master’s Degree in mechanical engineering and visual studies from the MIT Media Laboratory. In 2003 he completed his doctoral work in systems biology in the Department of Biological Engineering. Shiva’s love of complex systems, which began in India, has continued to inform all his work. After receiving his PhD he returned to India on a Fulbright grant, where he researched the systems theoretic basis of Eastern medicine. Systems Health®, a new educational program that provides a scientific foundation for integrative medicine, was based on these findings. Shiva is also the inventor of CytoSolve®, a scalable computational platform for modeling the cell using dynamic integration of molecular pathways models. Like all of Shiva’s work, CytoSolve draws on the principle that nature’s intelligence is decentralized. While we might expect the nucleus to dominate the cell’s function, the work itself is done on the periphery of the cell, in the membrane. While at MIT, Shiva developed Systems Visualization, a pioneering course integrating systems theory, data, metaphor, and narrative storytelling to enable visualization of complex systems. After winning a White House competition to automatically analyze and sort President Clinton’s email, Shiva started EchoMail, Inc. which grew to nearly $200 million in market va lua t io n. Shiva has appeared in The MIT Technology Review, The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, NBC News, USA Today and other major media. He was named to the “Top 40” in the Improper Bostonian. He has also authored four books: Arts and the Internet, The Internet Publicity Guide, The Email Revolution, and most recently The System and Revolution. His passion for entrepreneurialism continues as Managing Director of General Interactive, a venture fund that incubates, mentors, and funds new startups in in rural healthcare, media, biotechnology, and information technology. Shiva also founded Innovation Corps, to inspire and enable innovation among teenagers worldwide. He serves as a consultant to CEOs and Executive Management at Fortune 1000 companies, as well as government organizations such as the United States Postal Service, Office of Inspector General.
