Subhasis has over 20 years of experience in developing cutting-edge technology, 5 years of practicing therapy and10 years in clinical research. His diverse background led him to invent and commercialize the world's first fully wearable and connected brain plasticity training tool that trains Brain and Body as parts of ONE system. SynPhNe™ is the outcome of his PhD (Biomechatronics) study. He is involved in research in biomechanics, neuroplasticity, movement analysis, learning mechanisms and ageing. He has been a yoga and martial arts practitioner for the past 25 years.Notable MentionsAfter four years of study, collaborative research, prototype building and testing Dr. Banerji and his partners at Singapore's Nanyang Technological University ultimately produced the therapy that he described to me when we met in Washington D.C.Put simply, SynPhNe accelerates Dr. Banerji's painstaking visioning and learning process by reading brain and muscle signals, representing them graphically, and then teaching the patient how to self-correct the signals through their thought processes.The early 1980's was a building period for the Arts-in-Corrections program. At each of our six pilot sites we had been scrambling to secure the spaces we needed to establish the stable and sustained learning environments that we knew would have the most positive and persistent impact on the prisoners who were flocking to the program.

Have you ever wondered why your tap water tastes the way it does? The Taste of Water explores the increasing erasure of tastes from drinking water over the twentieth century. It asks how dramatic changes in municipal water treatment have altered consumers' awareness of the environment their water comes from. Through examining the development of sensory expertise in the United States and France, this unique history uncovers the foundational role of palatability in shaping Western water treatment processes. By focusing on the relationship between taste and the environment, Christy Spackman shows how efforts to erase unwanted tastes and smells have transformed water into a highly industrialized food product divorced from its origins. The Taste of Water invites readers to question their own assumptions about what water does and should naturally taste like while exposing them to the invisible—but substantial—sensory labor involved in creating tap water.Christy Spackman is Assistant Professor of Art/Science at Arizona State University and Director of the Sensory Labor(atory), an experimental research collective dedicated to creatively disrupting longstanding sensory hierarchies.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - https://www.wellingtonsquarebooks.com/book/9780520393547

I luckily managed to move from a space of ‘I have to save the planet or else' (and we talk about that word ‘save') to ‘I choose to commit my life to climate change in the best way I can' because everything that matters to me in this world stands to be lost in a climate crisis, especially one that would play out in a very severe and apocalyptic way. (Katrine)Having this I would say a calm perspective from artists, helping us get in touch with our feelings, simply, I found it to be a stabilizing force. (Sébastian)This is a special episode of the conscient podcast featuring two guests, one from the arts and another from science over a glass of wine or two.Katrine Claassens is an artist, writer and environmental communications specialist. She has a Master's degree in Climate Change from the University of Cape Town in South Africa and an Honours degree in Visual Art from Stellenbosch University. Katrine's work reflects her interests in climate change, deep ecology, urban ecology, and internet memes. As an artist she has led workshops, given public lectures and curated exhibitions all over the world from the Arctic to Antarctica. As a climate communications specialist Katrine works with governments, think-tanks, academia and NGOs to navigate complex and shifting landscapes but first and foremost I would say that Katrine is an artist, an activist and a climate leader.Sébastian Méric de Bellefon is an engineer with a background in software development. He has a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering from Institut Supérieur d'Électronique de Paris, and a Master's degree in biochemistry and genetics from Université de Montréal. After working in other industries as a software developer and consultant - banking, online radio, healthcare - and so he met Katrine and became a nerd about all things related to climate science and decarbonization pathways. Three years ago, he started a new career path writing software for clean energy companies, first at General Power Systems to create Virtual Power Plants and now at Power Factors to streamline the operations of wind and solar farms. I first met Katrine at an online Creative Climate Leadership alumni meeting, a course I took in March 2020, organized by Julie's Bicycle in the UK, where Katrine mentioned that she had immigrated to Canada from South Africa and like myself, as was an art and climate activist and so we decided to meet in Montreal, where I met her husband Sebastian and after a delicious vegan meal I asked if the two of them would be willing to record a conscient episode. They agreed and we talked for an hour while finishing off a bottle of homemade dandelion wine. I love Katrine's current work on social media's representation of nature, for example:My practice is looking a lot at the internet and memes and how nature is consumed or understood or contextualized through TikTok videos and YouTube videos and memes on Instagram. Near the end I mentioned that our conversation reminded me of the CBC Radio show Brave New Waves in the 1980s in Montreal that took place over night and where guests from various backgrounds had long winding conversations…During the conversation the following links were mentioned The success and failure of Picasso by John Berger Mountain Lion by D.H. Lawrence : ‘And I think in this empty world there was room for me and a mountain lion. And I think in the world beyond, how easily we might spare a million or two humans. And never miss them. Yet what a gap in the world, the missing white-frost face of that slim yellow mountain lion!'Circle Songs by Bobby McFerrin Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight by Thom HartmannKatrine mentioned the following books during the conversations:Picture book of cave paintings (such as the Earth Children series)Nature is not Metal (instagram account)Sébastian recommended the following books about ‘S-Curve' (technological transitions)Note: after the conversation Sébastian offered this further information about s-curves.‘Here's an introduction to adoption of S-curves and Wright's law in the context of clean energy. S-curves refers to the pace of adoption, and Wright's law refers to the diminishing manufacturing costs due to cumulative learning."Empirically grounded technology forecasts and the energy transition" - Oxford 2021 https://www.cell.com/joule/fulltext/S2542-4351(22)00410-XThis paper shows how core low-carbon technologies fit a common and predictable adoption/learning pattern, and how this pattern differs from fossil fuels. Then they estimate the cost of a full transition to renewable energy, and compare it to other possible pathways.Technologies include solar PV, wind turbines, batteries and hydrogen electrolyzers. The latter can be useful for electricity storage, but I find it even more interesting for fuels (e.g e-methanol for cargo shipping), fertilizers and chemical feedstocks (often derived from natural gas). So the conclusions of this paper can be somewhat extended beyond the energy system.' *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHere is a link for more information on season 5.

One of my most favorite topics and I'm so happy to have introduced it with my favorite sound mama. Lana is a Master Sound Practitioner and instrumental (pun intended) in bridging Sound Healing with Allopathic medicine in the Greater Harrisburg/Lancaster area. She is a close personal mentor, teacher and soul family friend in my life. I resonate with her views on universal consciousness and we both grew up embracing the concept that "God is Love" -- though what "God" is means different things to all of us. To me, Love is a frequency and God is much more than what we read about in the Bible. But that's an episode for another day... enjoy our discussion on some fundamentals of Sound Healing.

The Art & Science of Finding You Top Performers Advanced Insights into Data Analysis and Optimization with Dr. Ellis Welcome to this episode of Seller Sessions, where we dive deep into the nuanced world of data analysis and optimisation with the return of Dr. Ellis. After a hiatus of 18 months, we've brought the good doctor back from the depths of data science to share his wisdom on making advanced decisions using a comprehensive scoring system for Amazon sellers. Unveiling the Scoring System: A Gateway to Precision Dr. Ellis unveils a sophisticated scoring system designed to navigate the complexities of data, ensuring sellers can identify their top performers across various metrics, including keywords and ASINs. This scoring system isn't just about surface-level data; it delves into the art of analytics, employing fractions, logarithmic scales, and a keen understanding of variables to bring forth actionable insights. The Essence of Scoring: Simplifying complex data into a single, comprehensible score. Variables and Fractions: Introduction of a next-level approach to handling data, emphasising the use of fractions (X over 1 or 1 over X) based on the variable's impact (whether higher or lower is better). Data Compression via Logarithms: A crucial step for dealing with extensive data ranges, ensuring that scores reflect a more accurate value of variables like search volume. Applying the Scoring System: Practical Insights and Examples Dr. Ellis, with his profound expertise, walks us through the practical application of this scoring system using the example of surfacing important keywords. He illustrates how to score individual variables, compress data, and combine scores to unearth the top performers, providing a detailed blueprint for sellers to emulate. Scores as Fractions: A methodological approach to scoring, where variables are written in a fraction format to maintain consistency and prevent algebraic errors. Compression to Reflect Significance: Utilising logarithmic compression to manage wide-ranging data, ensuring that score increases remain proportional to their actual significance. Zero Score Prevention: A critical adjustment to ensure no valuable data is discarded, by modifying equations to prevent scores of zero. Advancing Beyond Basic Analytics This session is more than just a tutorial; it's a journey into the fundamentals of data analytics, offering sellers a way to leverage their data beyond the basics. Dr. Ellis highlights the significance of understanding and applying advanced analytics to stay competitive in the ever-evolving Amazon marketplace. Beyond Keywords and ASINs: The scoring system's flexibility allows for its application across various aspects of a business, offering insights into where to focus efforts for maximum impact. Next-Level Approach to Data: The introduction of logarithms, fractions, and multi-report scoring takes common data analysis to the next level, offering a fresh perspective on tackling large sets of data. Conclusion: Embracing Complexity for Competitive Advantage Dr. Ellis's insights into advanced data analysis underscore the importance of adopting sophisticated techniques to navigate the complexities of Amazon selling. By understanding and applying the principles of scoring and data compression, sellers can gain a competitive edge, making informed decisions that drive success. Looking Forward: Your Invitation to Advanced Analytics As we wrap up this session, we extend an invitation to our audience to dive deeper into the world of advanced analytics with Dr. Ellis.

Have you ever wondered why your tap water tastes the way it does? The Taste of Water: Sensory Perception and the Making of an Industrialized Beverage (U California Press, 2023) explores the increasing erasure of tastes from drinking water over the twentieth century. It asks how dramatic changes in municipal water treatment have altered consumers' awareness of the environment their water comes from. Through examining the development of sensory expertise in the United States and France, this unique history uncovers the foundational role of palatability in shaping Western water treatment processes. By focusing on the relationship between taste and the environment, Christy Spackman shows how efforts to erase unwanted tastes and smells have transformed water into a highly industrialized food product divorced from its origins. The Taste of Water invites readers to question their own assumptions about what water does and should naturally taste like while exposing them to the invisible—but substantial—sensory labor involved in creating tap water. Christy Spackman is Assistant Professor of Art/Science at Arizona State University, where she holds a joint appointment in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society and the School of Arts, Media and Engineering. She is also Director of the Sensory Labor(atory), an experimental research collective dedicated to creatively disrupting longstanding sensory hierarchies. Her academic work focuses on how the sensory experiences of making, consuming, and disposing of food influence and are influenced by “technologies of taste,” her term for the oft-overlooked technologies and practices used to manage the sensory aspects of foods during production. Garrett Broad is Associate Professor of Communication Studies in Rowan University's Edelman College of Communication & Creative Arts, where he also serves as Provost's Fellow in the Catalysts for Sustainability Initiative. His research and teaching explores the connections between contemporary social movements, food systems, and digital media technology. He is the author of More Than Just Food: Food Justice and Community Change, as well as a variety of articles on food's relationship to environmental sustainability, economic equity, and the health of humans and nonhuman animals.

After WAY too long a hiatus, Peoples & Things is back! GET EXCITED!! In this episode, host Lee Vinsel interviews Christy Spackman, Assistant Professor of Art/Science with a joint appointment in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society and the School of Arts, Media, and Engineering at Arizona State University, about her recent book, The Taste of Water: Sensory Perception and the Making of an Industrialized Beverage (U California Press, 2023). Most Americans drink water that has gone through industrial filtration and treatment. Those processes often leave a flavor in water. The Taste of Water tells the fascinating story of how scientists, engineers, and water system workers have worked for decades to ensure that processed water has an appealing flavor. Vinsel and Spackman talk about a lot of other things along the way, from how water fits into the field of food studies to Spackman's future plans. HEY!
