Arts educators and practitioners witness daily how the arts elevate students' self-confidence, emotional intelligence, and creativity. Yet, empirical evidence from scientific research has traditionally lagged behind these observations.In this insightful episode, Dr. Thalia shares findings from a nationally representative qualitative study highlighting the cognitive, social, and emotional benefits children gain from engaging in theatre classes. Drawing on developmental psychology and empirical research, she explains how theatre and playful artistic activities nurture emotional regulation, creativity, and overall well-being.Understanding these benefits is crucial for adults too. By fostering these skills early, we equip future leaders with essential tools to effectively navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of work and society. Join us to learn how to incorporate these strategies in your own life!Dr. Thalia Goldstein is an associate professor and director of the applied developmental psychology program at George Mason University, where she directs the Play, Learning, Arts, and Youth Lab, and co-directs the Mason Arts Research Center (a National Endowment for the Arts Lab). Her research focuses on children's and adolescent's social and emotional development through engagement with pretend play and the arts. Her most recent book is “Why Theatre Education Matters: Understanding its Cognitive, Social, and Emotional Benefits”.Learn more about Dr Thalia:www.thaliagoldstein.comListen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/genein-letford/

I remember starting an Arts Lab a few years ago – just before Covid started actually - with a group of people here in London, based roughly around the counter-culture arts labs of the 1960's – Jim Haynes was the main guy behind that movement. The idea was to bring together people who wanted to challenge the corporitisation of the arts, draw, socialise, talk about culture, put on cultural events or fuck around.I wanted to be a part of it but I didn't know why. I mean had terrible insecurities about my ability to draw, sketch or paint…even as a classically trained cellist I had terrible imposter syndrome about being a musician. Probably explains why I petulantly packed it in…At the first Arts Lab meeting, It was Youth from Killing Joke who said something that has always stuck with me and that was “the first thing you need to do is call yourself an artist, forget everything else”. I struggled with this – particularly with the whole identity of who I was. I certainly didn't feel like a creative. Even now doing my own graphic design, I feel like a bit of a fake – especially when I compare myself to others - but I am getting better.Of course, Youth was right. Allowing yourself that self-affirmation is really the start of your self-belief journey.Neeraj Kane is so synonymous with, and important to, the hardcore scene and I was excited to find out if he has faced these issues and how he has navigated them through his life.His musical footprint can't be overstated. Every band he's been in - like The Hope Conspiracy, The Suicide File, Hesitation Wounds, Godcollider - has produced music that is so incredibly potent and addictive in its structure and melody and the absolute precision of its attack. https://www.iwannajumplikedeedee.comI Wanna Jump Like Dee Dee is the music podcast that does music interviews differently.

I know I certainly did.  The 8 Acting Habits of Mind

Why does theatre education matter? In this episode of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast, hosts Dr. Cyndi Burnett and Dr. Matthew Worwood engage with Dr. Thalia Goldstein to explore the enriching world of theater education. Dr. Goldstein begins with the concept of a "consequence-free environment" in theater classrooms, where playfulness and the freedom to make mistakes foster both intra- and interpersonal skills that students can carry into various areas of their lives. Highlighting her three-year qualitative research, Dr. Goldstein introduces listeners to the "Acting Habits of Mind," vital psychological skills cultivated through theater, such as body awareness, emotional regulation, releasing inhibitions, and developing empathy. Through anecdotes and practical tips, she emphasizes the importance of incorporating physical activity, role play, and constructive peer critique in classroom settings to boost engagement and metacognitive thinking. Dr. Goldstein shares the adaptability of theater education across developmental stages, from creative play in young children to complex role exploration in high school, underscoring the necessity of informed guidance from teachers. This episode serves as a compelling testament to theater's expansive role in fostering lifelong creative and critical thinking abilities.

"That's how it happened…by looking around the neighborhood and asking, what's wrong here? This is not right." – Sharyn Pirtle Sing For Hope has all types of programming around the arts but focuses mainly on music. Their goal is to provide accessibility to those who are isolated and don't have access to the arts. They work with children and adults. Sharyn's “Aha!” moment began in a fantastic public performing arts school in her native Houston, Texas where children from different socioeconomic backgrounds came to share their passion for the arts. Many years later, the influence of that special school, inspired Sharyn to create Young at Arts, a performing arts after-school program dedicated to closing the gaps in arts education. In 2021, Sharyn was asked to build the new Sing for Hope - Young at Arts Lab at the Amani Public Charter School in Mount Vernon and to direct Sing for Hope's Open Arts, a fun, easy-to-use online arts program where users can enjoy LIVE and INTERACTIVE performances and up-close interviews from the brightest stars to local artists serving their communities to students who are using art to make their lives better. Open Arts' main goal is to reach those who need this dynamic connection most - youth and those in isolation.

This episode is not what you'd expect from a '90s Canadian rock podcast, as this artist is neither '90s, nor Canadian, however he is my favourite non-nineties non-Canadian artist, if you catch my drift... Anyhow, he's well known in Europe and the U.K. but not as much in North America, so I thought I'd take the opportunity this podcast have given me to introduce his music to Canada and beyond. The audio quality is not as great as I'd hoped but if you stick with the episode, I'm positive that you won't regret it...In part one, we discuss busking 7 minute original songs, hanging with David Bowie at the Arts Lab, how at 22 he ended up with a full orchestra and choir on his first record, the end of the first era of Cockney Rebel and among other things, he takes a deep dive into the writing of Make Me Smile.So, even if you're not familiar with Steve Harley, please give it a listen as I think you will be richly rewarded.

Our latest chapter followed David Bowie in the late ‘60s — a thrilling, colorful time when his creativity soared to new heights. After half a decade of near constant rejection from the mainstream music industry, David had started to rebel. Instead of chasing pop hits, he embraced the avant garde arts scene that was beginning to blossom in London. A key figure in David's life was Mary Finnigan, his friend, lover and (somewhat unusually) his landlady. A journalist by day, Mary was deeply involved with the London underground scene, a vibrant community of artists and activists looking to shake the populace out of their spiritual complacency. Together, she and David formed a folk club at a local pub called the Three Tuns. Later known as the Beckenham Arts Lab, the venue became a crucial incubator for Bowie, giving him a supportive and enriching environment to find his musical voice. The songs that he wrote in this period would find their way onto breakthrough albums like Space Oddity, The Man Who Sold the World, and Hunky Dory. Mary recorded her electrifying period with Bowie in a 2016 memoir, Psychedelic Suburbia. She speaks to Jordan about Bowie the lodger, Bowie the Buddhist, Bowie the boyfriend — and much more.

Lyt med, når IDA Podcast sætter fokus på evolutionære algoritmer og kunstige neurale netværk. Det er kognitive teknologier, som er fuldstændigt centrale for udviklingen indenfor kunstig intelligens i dag - og ikke til at overse, når vi skal forstå det eksponentielt accelererende paradigme, vi lever i. Vi stiller også skarpt på spørgsmålet, om maskiner kan være kreative, og på den vigtige rolle, kunstig intelligens spiller i en verden, hvor datamængden og processorkraften bare vokser og vokser.

Martin Soan, comedy promoter and creator of The Greatest Show On Legs, talks to critic Kate Copstick and blogger John Fleming in London’s Mama Biashara emporium. Has all the quirkiness gone out of the comedy business? Can Michael Brunström and Spencer Jones save British comedy? Did the Arts Lab start alternative comedy? Memories of The Browns’ double act, the influence of Germany, teddy bear torturing, walking on the ceiling and eating your own brain. Plus political correctness, sexism, the annoying thing about women, how Martin destroyed a kitchen every night at the Edinburgh Fringe and why he now turns down annual vagina requests… And then there’s a long discussion about the unique shape, colour and positioning of vaginas. Kate Copstick: “There is a fucking tsunami of under-talented people who fondly imagine they can be stand-up comics.. There’s too many people with absolutely fuck-all skill coming into comedy.” Martin Soan: “There’s something getting rather distasteful about the comedy industry” John Fleming: “You know when you’re sorry you asked a question?” http://www.grouchyclub.co.uk You can also download this audio podcast from iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/grouchy-clubs-mostly-about/id977279883 John Fleming posts occasional blogs at: http://blog.thejohnfleming.com
