Un vieux dicton dit que le féminisme mène à la sorcellerie, au lesbianisme, à l'infanticide… Et on pourrait ajouter, au divorce ! Cette semaine, Clémentine Gallot et Pauline Verduzier s'attaquent à ce sujet, qui peut être douloureux, banal, ou avoir l'effet d'une déflagration. Comment se sépare-t-on ? Comment même si, dans 75% des cas, ce sont les femmes qui demandent le divorce, ce sont le plus souvent elles qui sont lésées dans ces processus ? Enfin, comment aborder la séparation au prisme des questions de genre et de féminisme ? Ensemble, elles reviennent sur l'histoire du divorce, de sa place dans les féminismes, mais aussi dans l'économie et bien entendu, de sa représentation dans la pop culture !

Drawing on a vast range of material, from critical theory to pop culture to the intimacies and plain exchanges of daily life, Maggie Nelson's On Freedom (Jonathan Cape) explores how we might think, experience, or talk about freedom in ways responsive to the conditions of our day. Her abiding interest lies in ongoing "practices of freedom" by which we negotiate our interrelation with-indeed, our inseparability from-others, with all the care and constraint that relation entails, while accepting difference and conflict as integral to our communion.Nelson is in conversation here with Amelia Abraham, author of Queer Intentions (Picador) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

How can avatars allow us to use our senses at a remote location in real time? Will we ever be able to smell and taste remotely? For this week’s Future Positive podcast, Amelia Abraham speaks with Dr. Jacki Morie – Scientist, Artist, Educator and Senior Advisor on the A.N.A Avatar XPRIZE to answer these questions and more. We also hear from four of the semifinalist teams competing in the ANA Avatar XPRIZE who take us through their approaches to creating robotic avatars that convey a sense of presence and human connection in the most remote of locations. Forged Droids is a project that aims to create a low-cost, humanoid robotics system, which includes a robot, an immersive operator control/training system, and service for sharing the training data. Cyberselves began life at the University of Sheffield, UK. They work at the intersection of psychology, computer science, cultural studies, and philosophy, looking at what happens to human beings as we increasingly find ourselves engaging in immersive, digital cultures and environments, including everything from social media to virtual reality spaces. Touchlab manufactures e-skin thinner than human skin which can be wrapped around hard or soft surfaces to sense pressure and location in real-time. Applications include on-land, underwater, and in space robotics & machines.Dragon Tree Labs empowers human beings to surpass distance, strength, accuracy and two-task limits. Rooted in the collaboration of those who invent - academia, technology entrepreneurs, corporate researchers. They see their role as creating an environment where a great mixture of professors, research experts and engineers become a community for breakthrough innovations.Links: http://xprize.org https://www.xprize.org/prizes/avatar https://www.forgeddroids.com/ https://www.touchlab.io/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This week we take you on a time travelling adventure into the past, present and future of Carbon Capture as journalist Amelia Abraham interviews XPRIZE’s own world leaders of Carbontech. First Mike Leitch, Technical Lead, NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE, takes us on a whistle stop tour of Carbontech history. Before XPRIZE, he served as the Research Manager at RGL Reservoir Management, an oilfield manufacturing company based in Edmonton, Canada. There, he worked with a diverse team of engineers and scientists at the University of Alberta to build a comprehensive understanding of little known and little studied aspects of the oil recovery process.

He started his career as an editor in the Shanghai bureau of Interfax, Russia’s largest private news organization.

This week we bring you a peek into our intimate futures. We are well over a year into the lockdown caused by this pandemic and our lives have changed inconceivably. Probably the biggest change though is our lack of intimacy with other people. Technology is adapting though, as it always has. The telephone made communication with a distant loved one much easier. Algorithms in dating apps allow our future partner to get automatically shifted from the ghosters, the players and the people with no table manners. Most recently Zoom has become a verb which we all understand as a means to see the people we hold dear: friends, family, lovers, work colleagues…near and far. Hear from some of our amazing staff here at XPRIZE on what intimacy means to them, how technology will aid our relationships and what their ideal robot date would look like.We also feature an interview between journalist Amelia Abraham and our own A.I. technical lead, Neama Dadkhahnikoo.

We were joined by journalist Amelia Abraham to discuss her “eloquent, empathetic and passionate” (Owen Jones) debut Queer Intentions: A (personal) journey through LGBTQ+ culture. She was in conversation with novelist Yelena Moskovich.

This was the year that the world’s most famous drag queen, RuPaul, brought his critically-acclaimed TV show to the UK. The series has helped bring British drag queens and topics that affect the LGBT community to a wider audience. But, does appreciation of drag always mean there’s acceptance in society? In this episode we speak to Baby Lame, host of the official Drag Race UK podcast on BBC Sounds, to get the lowdown on life as a drag queen. We also talk to journalist and author Amelia Abraham about what happens when queer culture goes mainstream. You can listen to the Drag Race UK podcast on BBC Sounds, and watch the whole series of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK on iPlayer.

Kate Atkinson discusses her new novel, Big Sky. For Jackson Brodie fans it’s been a long nine years but finally he’s back. After the first four books in this crime fiction series, the acclaimed writer turned her attention to World War II resulting in two prize-winning novels, Life After Life and A God In Ruins. She explains how almost a decade later she was ready to return to Jackson and why the sixth Jackson book is not so far away. As insults fly, tempers flare, and books are pulled, writer Leo Benedictus, Charlotte Eyre, Children’s Editor at The Bookseller, and Children’s and YA author Patrice Lawrence discuss the impact that online criticism is having on the world of Young Adult fiction. We continue our exploration of LGBT literature which marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in New York in 1969, a key moment in the birth of the gay rights movement. Today journalist Amelia Abraham, author of the recently published book Queer Intentions: a Personal Journey through LGBTQ+ Culture, guides us through her favourite LGBT books from 1999 to 2009. Presenter Stig Abell Producer Jerome Weatherald

My guest this week is Amelia Abraham, journalist, TED speaker and author of Queer Intentions: A (personal) Journey Through LGBTQ+ culture. I've known Amelia for years, and she is one of the most interesting and original thinkers I've encountered. Queer Intentions is totally fascinating - she travelled all over the world researching it, from the world's biggest drag convention in L.A, to the nightclubs of Istanbul. Here we talk about how it all started with an ill-fated attempt to move to Iceland for love, how her attitude towards marriage changed while researching it, and why having LGBTQ+ spaces matters. But the Queer Intentions here: https://tinyurl.com/y3v5x9eb Twitter: @aliceazania @MillyAbraham Instagram: @aliceazania @amelia_abraham Edited by Chelsey Moore
