Although the history of Indonesian music has received much attention from ethnomusicologists and Western composers alike, almost nothing has been written on the interaction of missionaries with local culture. Missionaries, Anthropologists, and Music in the Indonesian Archipelago (U California Press, 2025) represents the first attempt to concentrate on the musical dimension of missionary activities in Indonesia. In fourteen essays, a group of distinguished scholars show the complexity of the topic: while some missionaries did important scholarship on local music, making recordings and attempting to use local music in services, others tried to suppress whatever they found. Many were collaborating closely with anthropologists who admitted freely that they could not have done their work without them. And both parties brought colonial biases into their work. By grappling with these realities and records, this book is a collective effort to decolonize the project of making music histories. Byung Ho Choi is a Ph.D. candidate in the History and Ecumenics program at Princeton Theological Seminary, concentrating in World Christianity and history of religions. His research focuses on the indigenous expressions of Christianities found in Southeast Asia, particularly Christianity that is practiced in the Muslim-dominant archipelagic nation of Indonesia. More broadly, he is interested in history and the anthropology of Christianity, complexities of religious conversion and social identity, inter-religious dialogue, ecumenism, and World Christianity.

ARCHIPELAGO Following a tragic event, The Herb Society, along with Lukas and Taylor are unwittingly pulled into Baptiste's twisted plan to not only find a lost continent but unlock the secrets to a precious material that is only found near an archipelago he believes to be the remainder of this sunken world. Baptiste knows this material is more precious than all the gold in the world and he has big plans for it. When The Herb Society discovers Pierre Baptiste's nefarious agenda, they unlock a global conspiracy led by the world's rich and powerful that would completely alter civilization to their advantage for generations to come. Now The Herb Society ladies, Lukas, Taylor, Tory and her boyfriend, Pepe are thrust into the plot and must fight the forces of nature and evil to save mankind from an unimaginable future. But will they be able to stop Pierre and his clever friends from initiating the countdown to an apocalypse? ABOUT THE AUTHOR E. William Podojil is an author, strategic advisor, and international business executive. He studied screenwriting at UCLA and has published both thrillers and mysteries, including The Tenth Man and The Poseidon Project. Archipelago is the second book in The Herb Society Mysteries. Podojil lives in Northeast Ohio with his husband and three sons. Website: www.ewpodojil.com Instagram: @ewilliampodojil Facebook: E.W. Podojil Author TOPICS OF CONVERSATION Thematic Depth of Archipelago The central theme of "beauty concealing darkness" and the exploration of dualities like discovery vs. destruction and good vs. evil. The broader metaphor of surface vs. substance (both in nature and people). Character Development and Interpersonal Dynamics Molly Halloran's growth and emotional layers, especially her strength and vulnerability. The evolving relationship between Lucas and Taylor as they face aging, temptation, and life transitions. Pierre Baptiste as a complex antagonist driven by vanity, aging, and a hunger for power and love. Real-World Technology and Futuristic Elements The role of cutting-edge (but real) technology in the story, such as AI, augmented reality, and satellite systems. The yacht Juventus as both a character and a symbol—luxurious, high-tech, and emotionally isolating. Philosophical and Generational Reflections Insights on aging, legacy, and the fleeting nature of time. Reflections on how different generations handle global anxiety, technological disruption, and personal purpose. Series Structure and Storytelling Approach How Archipelago fits within the Herb Society Mysteries series (second book following The Poseidon Project). Writing process—balancing plotting with character-driven storytelling. Hints at the third book (Chameleon), and the possible continuation of the series through new perspectives.

In today's show, I speak with Evyn Le Espiritu Gandhi about two pathbreaking studies which create new ways of thinking about populations bound by complex and contradictory notions of loyalty and psychological investment. Based on meticulous archival research and oral histories amongst disparate populations in South Vietnam, Guam, and Israel-Palestine, in Archipelago of Resettlement: Vietnamese Refugee Settlers and Decolonization across Guam and Israel-Palestine Gandhi is able to probe deeply into fascinating personal stories of refugees that have moved between these spaces, disclosing complex and often contradictory notions of belonging and loyalty. We also talk about her current book project, which tackles the idea of southern regions such as South Korea, South Vietnam, and the American South, as each mourning lost images of the nation.Evyn Lê Espiritu Gandhi is an associate professor of Asian American Studies at UCLA (Tovaangar). She is the author of Archipelago of Resettlement: Vietnamese Refugee Settlers and Decolonization across Guam and Israel-Palestine (University of California Press, 2022) and co-editor with Vinh Nguyen of The Routledge Handbook of Refugee Narratives (Routledge, 2023). She is the lead curator of a public history exhibit, “Remembering Saigon: Journeys through and from Guam,” which opened this month at UC Irvine's Southeast Asian Archive. She is currently working on a second book project which revisits Gramsci's “southern question” by constellating the southern spaces of South Korea, South Vietnam, and the US South.

Story Transcript:Sv: Elin hade alltid älskat de tysta, snöklädda öarna i Stockholms skärgård.En: Elin had always loved the quiet, snow-covered islands in the Stockholms archipelago.Sv: Havet låg fruset och himlen var täckt av grå moln.En: The sea lay frozen, and the sky was covered with gray clouds.Sv: Den friska, kalla luften stack mot hennes kinder medan hon klev av båten och såg sig omkring.En: The fresh, cold air stung her cheeks as she stepped off the boat and looked around.Sv: Hon var här för att hitta sanningen om den förrymda färjekaptenen.En: She was here to find the truth about the escaped ferry captain.Sv: Folk på ön var tysta och skeptiska.En: The people on the island were quiet and skeptical.Sv: De pratade inte gärna med främlingar.En: They didn't like talking to strangers.Sv: Men Elin var fast besluten.En: But Elin was determined.Sv: Hon behövde återuppliva sin karriär efter en svår miss tidigare.En: She needed to revive her career after a difficult failure earlier.Sv: Hon hade hört att Mats, fiskaren, hade varit vän med kaptenen.En: She had heard that Mats, the fisherman, had been a friend of the captain.Sv: Han måste veta något.En: He must know something.Sv: Mats hade dock sina egna bekymmer.En: However, Mats had his own worries.Sv: Kaptenen var hans vän, och han ville inte svika honom.En: The captain was his friend, and he didn't want to betray him.Sv: Men när Elin förklarade sin situation, gick han motvilligt med på att hjälpa till.En: But when Elin explained her situation, he reluctantly agreed to help.Sv: "Vi måste vara försiktiga," sa han.En: "We have to be careful," he said.Sv: "Folk här gillar inte nyfikna journalister."En: "People here don't like curious journalists."Sv: Samtidigt hade Sigrid, den brinnande miljöaktivisten, sin egen agenda.En: Meanwhile, Sigrid, the passionate environmental activist, had her own agenda.Sv: Hon trodde att kaptenens försvinnande hade något att göra med olagliga aktiviteter i skärgården.En: She believed that the captain's disappearance had something to do with illegal activities in the archipelago.Sv: Föroreningar, olagligt fiske – sådant som hon kämpade mot.En: Pollution, illegal fishing – things she fought against.Sv: Elin insåg snabbt att hon skulle behöva deras hjälp.En: Elin quickly realized that she would need their help.Sv: Med Mats kunde hon navigera bland öns invånare, och Sigrids insikter om miljöfrågor kunde också vara användbara.En: With Mats, she could navigate among the island's inhabitants, and Sigrid's insights into environmental issues could also be useful.Sv: Trots sina olika mål, enades de om att jobba tillsammans.En: Despite their different goals, they agreed to work together.Sv: Efter många kalla dagar, fann de ledtrådar som pekade mot en övergiven ö i närheten.En: After many cold days, they found clues pointing to an abandoned island nearby.Sv: Vintermörkret var påtagligt när de rodde dit.En: The winter darkness was palpable as they rowed there.Sv: Luften var tung av förväntningar.En: The air was heavy with anticipation.Sv: På ön upptäckte de en gammal stuga, full av dokument och kartor.En: On the island, they discovered an old cabin, full of documents and maps.Sv: Det visade sig att kaptenen hade varit inblandad i att kartlägga olaglig avverkning.En: It turned out that the captain had been involved in mapping illegal logging.Sv: Han hade hållit det hemligt för att skydda både skärgården och sig själv.En: He had kept it secret to protect both the archipelago and himself.Sv: Bevisen var överväldigande och avslöjade både miljöbrott och personliga hemligheter.En: The evidence was overwhelming, revealing both environmental crimes and personal secrets.Sv: Elin visste att hon hade hittat sin historia.En: Elin knew she had found her story.Sv: Hon återvände till Stockholm och skrev en artikel som berörde både mysteriet och det akuta behovet av att skydda skärgårdens känsliga ekosystem.En: She returned to Stockholm and wrote an article that touched on both the mystery and the urgent need to protect the archipelago's fragile ecosystem.Sv: Artikeln publicerades och blev snabbt läst över hela Sverige.En: The article was published and was quickly read all over Sweden.Sv: Hennes mod och beslutsamhet hade gett resultat, och det kändes gott att återigen vara på rätt spår i karriären.En: Her courage and determination had paid off, and it felt good to be on the right track in her career once again.Sv: Hon tackade Mats och Sigrid, och de hade alla lärt sig betydelsen av samarbete och att se saker från olika perspektiv.En: She thanked Mats and Sigrid, and they had all learned the importance of collaboration and seeing things from different perspectives.Sv: Elin var nu säkrare och mer medkännande, med en djupare förståelse för de komplexa historier som ruvar dolda under ytan.En: Elin was now more confident and compassionate, with a deeper understanding of the complex stories that lie hidden beneath the surface.Sv: Hon visste att hon alltid skulle minnas denna vinter i skärgården, och de hemligheter som kom upp till ytan.En: She knew she would always remember this winter in the archipelago and the secrets that came to light.

Latai Taumoepeau is an artist who thinks big. Not only is her subject matter expansive—the impact of global warming and rising sea levels in the South Pacific—increasingly she produces works of remarkable scale.Deep Communion sung in minor (ArchipelaGO, THIS IS NOT A DRILL), which premiered at Venice as part of Re-Stor(y)ing Oceania and is now on at Artspace in Sydney, uses musical scores and sculptural interactive machines that simulate paddle boards to bring the immediacy of the climate crisis to the forefront. It's a ritual and ceremony for our times, steeped in tradition; a call to action; and a love letter to her ancestral homeland of Tonga.
Join Secretary of National Defense of the Philippines, Gilberto Teodoro, and Hoover Senior Fellow H.R. McMaster, as they discuss the history of US-Philippine relations, defense cooperation, and security in Southeast Asia. In light of the new US administration, Teodoro reflects on America's long alliance with the Philippines and his expectations for the relationship over the coming years, how the Philippine government has evolved over the last several administrations in countering Chinese coercion, and the connection between Chinese aggression in the Indo-Pacific, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the impact of the war in the Middle East on the security of the Philippines.

The hosts provide insights into each region's unique characteristics, cultural heritage, and travel recommendations. Calabria: Hidden Beauty and Complex Identity Calabria, often overlooked, is highlighted for its natural beauty and affordability. The hosts discuss its complex identity, influenced by mafia history and personal travel experiences. Notable destinations like Tropea, which are becoming popular for their scenic coastlines and seaside villages. Sicily: A Tapestry of Civilizations Sicily's rich cultural history is showcased through archaeological sites, such as Taormina's ancient theater and the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. Cities like Palermo and Catania offer vibrant food scenes and distinct Sicilian traits.

special," replied Lars, smiling faintly.Sv: Men i hans sinne pågick en kamp mellan hjärtats begär och rädslan för vad en bekännelse kunde leda till.En: But in his mind, there was a struggle between the heart's desire and the fear of what a confession could lead to.Sv: Dagarna rullade på, fyllda med gemensamma aktiviteter.En: The days passed by, filled with shared activities.Sv: Trädkronorna

Eva lyssnade noga, hennes ansikte ändrades från förvåning till förståelse.En: Eva listened intently, her face changing from surprise to understanding.Sv: "Lars...", sa hon mjukt, "du är en underbar vän.En: "Lars," she said softly, "you are a wonderful friend.Sv: Jag uppskattar din ärlighet.En: I appreciate your honesty.Sv: Men jag känner inte på samma sätt."En: But I don't feel the same way."Sv: Lars nickade, lättad men också en smula besviken.En: Lars nodded, relieved but also a tad disappointed.Sv: "Jag förstår", sa han, en nyvunnen moders lugn i hans röst.En: "I understand," he said, a newfound calm in his voice.Sv: "Kan vi fortfarande vara vänner?"En: "Can we still be friends?"Sv: Eva log och gav honom en varm kram.En: Eva smiled and gave him a warm hug.Sv: "Självklart.En: "Of course.Sv: Vänskap är också en vacker sak."En: Friendship is also a beautiful thing."Sv: Med en känsla av befrielse och acceptans såg Lars ut över havet.En: With a sense of release and acceptance, Lars looked out over the sea.Sv: Han hade äntligen visat sin sårbarhet och funnit styrka i det.En: He had finally shown his vulnerability and found strength in it.Sv: Hans hjärta var lättare, och han visste nu värdet av ärlighet mot sig själv och andra.En: His heart was lighter, and he now understood the value of being honest with himself and others.Sv: Den svenska skärgården var fortfarande hans fristad, men nu hade den också blivit platsen där han lärde sig att vara sann mot sina känslor.En: The Swedish archipelago was still his sanctuary, but now it had also become the place where he learned to be true to his feelings.Sv: Och kanske, tänkte Lars, kanske var detta början på ett nytt kapitel i hans liv.En: And perhaps, Lars thought, perhaps this was the beginning of a new chapter in his life.

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.What if the rhythm of an island could reshape global music? In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Jessica Swanston Baker who both brings her rich family heritage and academic expertise to trace the roots and evolution of wylers, its integral role in Carnival, and reveal how Caribbean music has profoundly influenced the global soundscape.Journey with us as we explore the dynamic evolution of Caribbean Christmas sports, with a special focus on the historical and cultural transformations in St. Kitts and Nevis.

Finally, we discuss the broader impact of globalization on Caribbean music in the 1990s and 2000s. Learn how affordable music technology enabled a new generation of musicians to bypass traditional pathways, reshaping the local and global music scenes. We also dive into the personal stories of navigating family history through ethnomusicology, highlighting the significance of tempo and poetic expression in Caribbean culture.Jessica Swanston Baker is an ethnomusicologist specializing in contemporary popular music of the Circum-Caribbean. Her work centers on the intricate relationships between tempo, aesthetics, colonial legacies, and the intersections of race and gender in the region and its diaspora. Her book, Island Time: Speed and the Archipelago from St. Kitts and Nevis (University of Chicago Press, 2024), traces the sonic history and ethnographic present of wylers, a fast-paced style of music from St. Kitts and Nevis, examining how it reflects broader histories of colonization, Black femininity, and West Indian performance practices.

As Pavel Durov remains in French hands, we're wondering whether Europe can finally develop its own Silicon Valley simply by mass detention of top entrepreneurial talent.Or whether perhaps this is the desperate last whelp of a society increasingly bypassed by the global tech economy. Meanwhile, in Germany, the story of the day is that the AfD have taken a great swath of Thuringia and Saxony, while Sara Wagenknecht has gobbled the rest. This is democracy in action – so can it be stopped? At the same time, the EU is redefining its central budget. For member states, that 1.2 trillion annual pocket money is no longer free - it will be conditional on economic reforms. We're about to find out what exactly Slovenia is prepared to do for its slice. Better yet, what will Hungary do?Finally, as Turkey applies to be the latest BRIC, we're wondering: is this the point when it's quicker to build a new acronym from states who aren't in the club?As you may have noticed, this week is an extended, four-story gutbuster of an episode.

This title was released in May 2024. It will be exclusively available to buy from the Big Finish website until 31 July 2024, and on general sale after this date. The Doctor and River Song. Their lives are tangled, complex, intertwined. But this Doctor doesn't do domestics, and for once, River might have her work cut out. With time and space against them, these lovers are star-crossed in more ways than most. 4.1 Swipe Right by John Dorney There are strange rumours about the planet Crell. People have been vanishing. The mysterious Matchmaker is keen to get the populace paired up via his special dating app… but rejecting too many suitors can have fatal consequences. It's precisely the sort of thing the Doctor would want to investigate. But unfortunately it's also precisely the sort of thing River Song would want to investigate too. The Doctor and River are on a collision course - but this time it might not be a match made in heaven. 4.2 Face of the Apocalypse by Lizzie Hopley After locking onto an unusual algorithm, the TARDIS lands in a hi-security Intergalactic Bank where the computerised system only recognises one face - River Song. The Doctor discovers River dismantling the main computer and immediately suspects her of something dodgy… But a case of stolen identity becomes far more serious as River's face starts to appear throughout history and the Bank vaults start filling up with Temporal Prisoners. Is River the victim of a sting or a bored computer nerd? One thing's for certain, the ‘glitch' is no longer a glitch and is on its way to destroying all of spacetime, starting with Prisoner Number One. 4.3 Archipelago by Tim Foley River Song has one last request. If the Doctor undertakes a dangerous journey with her on the planet Fortuna, she'll never bother him again. But this is no ordinary voyage. As the storms batter their tiny vessel, the travellers are confronted with some brutal home truths. There is a captain in search of a husband. There is a ship in need of a light. And there are lovers lost in the maelstrom who will always be islands apart...
