In this episode, we talk with French field recordist and artist Mélia Roger about her film Dear Phonocene, currently featured in the Projected Ecologies program within the exhibition Pulsar at MUCA in Mexico City. Mélia shares how the work emerged from over a decade of listening to the monoculture Douglas fir plantations near her parents' home, spaces she describes as “post-natural” and marked by biodiversity loss. Blending fiction, performance, and documentary, the project imagines “acoustic enrichment” as a form of care—playing back past soundscapes to acknowledge what has been lost. We discuss her collaboration with other women recordists, the role of human presence and “noisy non-self” in the film's soundscape, and the interplay between slow listening and the fast pace of image-making. Mélia reflects on grief, hope, and tenderness in altered landscapes, the technical and ethical dimensions of playback, and her evolving research on post-natural listening within her PhD work. Plus, we hear about her upcoming explorations of cetacean sound in the Canary Islands.Mélia Roger (*1996, she/her) is a field recordist and artist engaged to inspire ecological change with environmental and empathic listening. Her work explores the sonic poetics of the landscape, searching for the invisible layers between human and non-humans. Coming from a sound engineering background (ENS Louis-Lumière in Paris, ZHdK in Zurich), Mélia is developing a twofold activity between immersive 7.0.2 sound recordings within HAL, as well as a more experimental and naturalistic approach to listening. Now at Le Fresnoy, she is a practice-based PhD candidate at the University of Lille, focusing on the relations between sound arts and acoustic ecology.https://www.meliaroger.com/portfolio/project-two-llrgk-blz6chttps://www.instagram.com/meliarog/https://muca.unam.mx/pulsar.htmlhttps://www.lydianstater.co/projected-ecologies

A Comprehensive Guide for Arranging Your Personal Affairs by Harold L Chappell Ed D Amazon.com The title of the book carries you to your final destination, but the most important items are how you get there. In looking at the table of contents, one can see how one of the early items, section 2, is selecting the executor of your estate. Imagine if the author selects you to serve in that capacity. Unfortunately, you would have no idea of what my requests would have been--but if I had filled out each of the sections, you would know, precisely, what I desired to be done. In addition, there are questions you could use in making decisions about the capabilities of specialists, such as financial advisers, attorneys, realtors, and others you may need at some time. Most importantly, in section 35, where you may want to move to a senior living facility, there are thirty-five questions you need to ask and three copies of the questionnaire for each of the three facilities you choose to interview.

In this episode, we talk with video artist Kadir Kayserilioğlu about his recent work The Walls of Heaven, currently featured in the exhibition Pulsar as part of Projected Ecologies at MUCA Campus in Mexico City. We discuss the accidental origins of the piece, ideas of creation and control through terrariums and Sea Monkeys, god complexes in both art and gaming, reenactment as a narrative device, YouTube aesthetics in video essays, and how humor, chance, and contradiction shape Kadir's broader practice. Plus, we hear about his earlier work The Garden of Forgetting, and a glimpse into what might come next.   Kadir Kayserilioğlu is an artist mainly works on experimental film and video art. His works have been invovled in various exhibitions and screening programs in Turkey and abroad. His artistic practice is grounded in an idea of play that operates across a wide range of forms including video games and collaborative, performance-based videos, documentation and experimental processes. His works often rely on a combination of instructions and protocols on one hand, and collective improvisational processes and chance operations on the other. This often results in works that challenge conventional notions of authorship and authority with a dark humoristic style, and show irreverence towards traditional hierarchies between forms of high and popular culture, assembling high production value with home made and DIY esthetics. His areas of investigation include the nature of social reality, posthumanism, speculative fiction, finiteness, conspiracy theories and micro-stories. He often engages in strategies of the absurd, repurposing mythological narratives as well as science fiction and horror tropes towards a critical take on contemporary political dynamics. https://www.kadirkayserilioglu.com/ https://www.instagram.com/kadirkayserilioglu https://vimeo.com/kadirkayserilioglu https://muca.unam.mx/pulsar.html https://www.lydianstater.co/projected-ecologies https://www.elisagutierrezeriksen.com/

In this episode, we tackle a difficult but crucial topic: what to do when someone passes away. While it's not a conversation most people want to have, planning ahead can save significant stress and confusion for those left behind.We start with the immediate steps that need to be taken. First, a legal pronouncement of death is required, which is usually handled by hospital or hospice staff, but in cases of a home passing, 911 or hospice must be called. Then, notifying immediate family and close friends becomes a priority. This can be overwhelming, so enlisting help to spread the word is essential. Arranging transportation of the body, securing the deceased's home and belongings, and taking care of any pets are also critical early tasks.Next, we move into handling financial and legal matters. Obtaining multiple copies of the death certificate is key, as most financial institutions require them. Locating the will or estate documents helps determine whether probate is necessary. If the deceased's assets were solely in their name, probate is likely required. However, if assets were jointly owned or placed in a trust, probate may be avoided. It's important to notify key institutions—banks, investment custodians, mortgage lenders, pension providers, Social Security, and credit card companies—to avoid complications like continued payments that may need to be repaid.Probate can be a time-consuming and public legal process, so we discuss three common scenarios:If assets are solely owned, probate is required to legally transfer them.If assets are jointly owned, probate is not needed, and the co-owner retains full ownership.If a trust is in place, assets can be distributed per the trust's instructions without probate, saving time and legal fees.After probate (or if it's not required), the final steps include distributing personal belongings and assets, closing remaining accounts, and handling final taxes. Supporting family members emotionally and financially is also critical, as unexpected financial burdens can arise even with the best planning.The best way to ease this process is by planning ahead. Having an updated will or trust, maintaining a list of financial accounts and key documents, using a password vault, and discussing final wishes with loved ones can help ensure a smooth transition. Regularly reviewing beneficiary designations on accounts and property is also essential to prevent unintended complications.While this is a difficult conversation, taking steps now can relieve significant stress later.

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/  In this episode, I'm with Dr Jan Eppingstall, a Melbourne-based counsellor and hoarding expert extraordinaire. We unpack the concept of engaging with our belongings - actually seeing, touching, and using the things we tend to accumulate, rather than letting them fade into the background. Jan shares insights from her work, explains why we often feel safer just owning stuff instead of interacting with it, and offers practical ways to build a healthier, more intentional relationship with what we own. There are some genuinely enlightening moments, and plenty of ideas for anyone looking to break free from an excess of stuff. Defining "Engaging with Our Stuff" What it means to actually engage with possessions (seeing, touching, using) Comparison to possessions fading into the background The idea of using versus just possessing objects Patterns of Engagement Among People Who Hoard Sense of safety from being surrounded by possessions without interaction Only the "top layer" of possessions typically being used Loss of intention behind keeping sentimental or useful items The psychological comfort of having versus using objects Emotional and Psychological Aspects of Compulsive Hoarding Emotional connection to the potential of objects rather than actual objects Avoidance of decision-making by not engaging/touching items Security and reassurance derived from the mere presence of items Defeatism and pointlessness associated with searching for or using objects Barriers to Engaging with Possessions Overwhelm from the sheer volume of stuff Active resistance and avoidance behaviours Feelings of incompetence and adaptation through purchasing duplicates Guilt associated with over-accumulation Benefits of Actively Engaging with Possessions Rediscovering useful or wanted items when sorting Increased awareness of what is owned and where it is Neurological and psychological benefits of tactile interaction Insights gained from using and trying on items (e.g., clothing) Decision-making as a muscle that strengthens with practice Realisations about unnecessary duplicates (e.g., multiple ladles in the kitchen) Emotional and practical hurdles in finding homes for items Perfectionism and rigidity around item placement and organisation Moving, Arranging, and Re-organising Possessions Resistance to moving items from "their place" due to tradition, attachment, or perfectionism Fear of forgetting where things are if organisational changes are made Multi-step decision fatigue when organising The importance of flexible, evolving systems for item placement Confronting Avoidance and Overwhelm The value of small steps, e.g., simply looking into an avoided bag or space The myth of a “good reason” for keeping certain items, often dispelled when items are revisited Developing Healthier, More Intentional Relationships with Stuff Introducing intention and ritual to everyday interactions with possessions “Rotation stations” and seasonal evaluation/rituals Benefits of conscious handling, organisation, and maintenance Cultural Perspectives and Practices Japanese concepts: Te Ate: hand-care, tactile connection as a ritual Mushiboshi: seasonal airing and assessment of items Ma: meaningful emptiness/space as a source of tranquillity Contrasts between Western consumerism and other cultural approaches to possessions Challenges and Solutions in Organising and Letting Go The impact of spatial processing or organisational difficulties Accepting that resistance to change is sometimes due to overwhelm Personalisation and Flexibility in Managing Possessions Tailoring organisation and engagement to one's own needs, routines, and neurodiversity Maximalism and the need for varying levels of stimulus—distinguishing between maximalism and chaos Allowing spaces to be intentionally clear, embracing the benefits of emptiness The ongoing journey of developing intentionality with possessions The importance of kindness and patience with oneself in making these changes Links Podcast

Dr. Bill Ahearn joins me in Session 299 of Behavioral Observation. I met Bill a few times at conferences and I'm so glad we finally had a chance to sit down and record a podcast together. Bill is the Director of Research at The New England Center for Children. Long time listeners may recall that NECC sponsored a series of episodes, and in this podcast, we talked about some of the great research that has come out of that storied institution. As an aside, if you want to learn more about NECC, particularly working at NECC, you can find more information about that here. We covered a lot of ground in this conversation, including: Bill's early experiences as a grad student and clinician. His early work in addressing feeding problems. The research that he and his colleagues have conducted at NECC. How he construes stereotypic and self-injurious behavior as being forms of repetitive behavior. What he's learned about addressing stereotypy, including when and when not to intervene. We talk at length about Response Interruption and Redirection, particularly when it is and isn't necessary as an intervention. The behavioral interpretation of anxiety, and interventions that he and his team have brought to bear on related repertoires. I ask a few lighter questions on some topics of mutual interest (you'll have to listen towards the end to hear that). If you listen to nothing else from this podcast, towards the end of the show, Bill talks about why he is proud to be a Behavior Analyst. Please listen to that segment, as I think he makes some excellent points that are more than worth sharing. We also talked about tons of papers. I've done my best to track as many down as possible. Piazza et al. (2000). An evaluation of the effects of matched stimuli on behaviors maintained by automatic reinforcement. Rapp and Vollmer (2005). Stereotypy I: A review of behavioral assessment and treatment. Ahearn et al. (2007). Assessing and treating vocal stereotypy in children with autism. Colón et al. (2012). The effects of verbal operant training and response interruption and redirection on appropriate and inappropriate vocalizations. Rodriguez et al. (2013). Arranging and ordering in autism spectrum disorder: Characteristics, severity, and environmental correlates. Steinhauser et al. (2021). Examining stereotypy in naturalistic contexts: Differential reinforcement and context-specific redirection. Moore et al. (2022). Assessing and Treating Anxiety in Individuals with Autism.
