Podcasts about Bournemouth University

For this second archive episode, Chris and Alex revisit Episode 81 of the podcast that gave listeners a quickfire journey through Sub-Saharan African animation with Paula Callus, a Professor in the National Centre for Computer Animation at Bournemouth University and an expert in Sub-Saharan African animation. The films covered in this instalment were Moustapha Alassane's Bon Voyage Sim (1966), Ng'endo Mukii's Yellow Fever (2013), Iwa (2009) from Nigerian filmmaker, illustrator and art director Kenneth (Shofela) Coker, the British/Kenyan animated television series Tinga Tinga Tales (2010-2012), and the science-fiction allegory Pumzi (2009) from writer and director Wanuri Kahiu. Lots here on the cultural and historical specificity of fantasy storytelling, global animation practices, and the post-colonial legacies that guide how African animation has been culturally and critically understood. **Fantasy/Animation theme tune composed by Francisca Araujo** **As featured on Feedspot's 25 Best London Education Podcasts**

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/hLBfAVyeMBsThroughout history, authorities have struggled to manage individuals' urges to speak out against injustice and malpractice. IT has given us new means to obtain and publish data that others may wish to protect or even conceal. To some, those who hack and leak are heroes. To others, they are criminals. In an era of mass leaks and high-profile whistleblowing, who decides whether data thieves and hackers are to be protected or prosecuted? And are the old rules still fit for purpose in the digital age? This lecture will discuss these questions and will consider the moral case for stealing data.

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/Y9JR7El863kOur alert systems for identifying safety and security threats have evolved over time. As the threat from wild animals diminished, the perceived threat from other humans increased. To defend our territories and our livelihoods, we began to gather intelligence on our enemies, in the hope that being forewarned would give us an advantage. This lecture explores our use of technologies that have allowed us to keep a closer watch, and the ingenious methods that have been used to counter them.  This lecture was recorded by Victoria Baines on 8th April 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Victoria is IT Livery Company Professor of Information Technology.Victoria is a Senior Research Associate of the Intellectual Forum at Jesus College, Cambridge, a Senior Research Fellow of the British Foreign Policy Group, and a Fellow of the British Computer Society.

Elaine Miller, Fanny and Me!  In this episode of Comedicine, we get to talk to pelvic physiotherapist and comedian, Elaine Miller. Elaine Miller is a Fellow of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy, specialising in women's health.  She started doing stand-up comedy as a hobby, finding the lighter side of female urinary incontinence. In doing so, she found a way to reach and educate women about their fannies.  Elaine lives in Edinburgh, home of the biggest Arts festival in the world, so the obvious next step for her was to write and perform a solo show about pelvic floors at the Edinburgh Fringe. Gusset Grippers, won the Comedy Award at Fringe World, Australia in 2020.  Her second show, Viva Your Vulva, the Hole Story, was one of only two shows to be awarded five stars in 2023.  She collaborated with Monash University on a paper examining humour as a health promotion tool and her #DryByChristmas social media campaign reminding women to do their pelvic floor exercises was published by Rosie Haper from Bournemouth University. Elaine shares some incredible facts, like 50% of women don't know the difference between the vulva and the vagina. FIFTY PERCENT PEOPLE! This is just not acceptable to Elaine. It is also not acceptable that it takes and average of 7 years for women to get medical help with incontinence. SEVEN YEARS!! The good news is that once you find a pelvic physio, most women get better! Through humour, Elaine is trying to change the world. One vagina at a time.   Clip – https://youtu.be/XODY8eqbG4I?feature=shared  More information on Elaine: https://www.csp.org.uk/frontline/article/3-minutes-elaine-miller  Scientific papers on humour: https://www.monash.edu/news/articles/could-humour-be-the-key-to-a-healthier-society  https://staffprofiles.bournemouth.ac.uk/display/rharper1  @gussiegrips   SCRIBENOTE  Thank you to our season 5 title sponsor, Scribenote! Scribenote is an AI-powered veterinary scribe that saves you hours of record-keeping every day, boosts clinic efficiency, and helps you leave work on time.  Promo code: COMEDICINE15 for 15% off Scribenote for 1 year Link: https://app.scribenote.com/auth/register?referralCode=Comedicine-Bonus (use this linke to double the regular free trial usage!)Thanks for listening to Comedicine!

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/7mW52bW23goIt has become something of a cliché to say that data is the new oil. That isn't the full story. For centuries it has proved itself to be infinitely re-usable. It has enabled the creation and reinforcement of collective memory. It has been documented in innumerable formats, from maps to databases, taxonomies, and infographics. We make sense of the world through the technology we use to process and visualise data. This lecture is an exploration of our enduring love for it.This lecture was recorded by Victoria Baines on 25th February 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Victoria is IT Livery Company Professor of Information Technology.Victoria is a Senior Research Associate of the Intellectual Forum at Jesus College, Cambridge, a Senior Research Fellow of the British Foreign Policy Group, and a Fellow of the British Computer Society.

Be it a Marvel superhero, a fashion model or a professional athlete, we likely all have an image in our minds of what we wish our bodies looked like. But for some, the pressure of meeting these expectations can lead to the use of anabolic steroids in an attempt to get that Hollywood or magazine cover look. In this episode, we speak to Dr Orlanda Harvey, a senior lecturer in social work based at Bournemouth University. She tells us what steroids do to our bodies, the various motivations recreational users have for using them and the health issues, both for body and mind, that can arise from doing so.

After 15 months of devastating conflict, a ceasefire agreement has been reached between Israel and Hamas, and three female hostages – Romi Gonen, Emily Damari, and Doron Steinbrecher - have been released and are now back in Israel. This release is the first of several expected over the next six weeks, with a total of 33 hostages to be returned. Ninety Palestinian prisoners were released overnight in exchange for the hostages, the Israeli prison service has said - most of them women and teenage boys. The UN estimates that 1.9 million people in Gaza have been internally displaced since the start of the most recent conflict, some 90% of the population. The humanitarian situation remains critical, with widespread destruction and significant damage to infrastructure including hosptials and severe shortages of food, fuel, medicine, and shelter. Datshiane Navanayagam speaks to BBC Chief Correspondent Lyce Doucet. We also hear from Ghada Al-Kourd in Deir al-Balah in the centre of the Gaza strip, and Sharone Lifschitz, whose parents were taken hostage by Hamas in October 2023.Geneticists from Trinity College Dublin and archaeologists from Bournemouth University have found evidence of female political and social empowerment during Britain's Iron Age. DNA sampled from a burial site in Dorset shows that two-thirds of the women were closely related, suggesting that women lived in the same communities and passed on their land and wealth to their daughters, while unrelated men tended to join the community from elsewhere. This type of social structure, known as “matrilocality” is the first documented instance in European pre-history and challenges the assumption that most societies were patrilocal. Dr Lara Cassidy, an Assistant Professor of Genetics at Trinity College Dublin who led the research, discusses the findings. President-elect Donald Trump will be inaugurated today in Washington D.C. It is of course his second term, having previously served as the 45th US president, he will now also become the 47th. So what will a second Trump presidency mean for women, both in the US and around the world? Datshiane is joined by Jennifer Ewing from Republicans Overseas and the BBC's Holly Honderich to discuss.Elise Downing is known for running 5,000 miles self-supported around the British coast over the course of 10 months. She was not only the youngest person, but also the only female to have completed the challenge. Along the way she saw Britain at its wild and wonderful best. She has now written Walk Britain, packed with inspiring car-free ideas on how to get out and explore stunning locations – from the Cornish coast to the Yorkshire Dales and the Isle of Arran.  She joins Datshiane to talk about some of the 90 different routes across that can be completed on foot, all accessible by public transport.Presented by Datshiane Navanayagam Producer: Louise Corley

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/d6Ao4KmGXBcArtificial Intelligence is a very recent invention…or is it? Humans have been fascinated by intelligent machines for thousands of years. Some exist only in our collective imagination, in art and literature. Others have seen the light of day as mechanical marvels, although a few were later exposed as elaborate frauds. The robots of today might not be what our ancestors imagined. This lecture argues that the relationship between humans and machines has always been complex, and that we still can't decide whether we really want them to be like us.This lecture was recorded by Victoria Baines on 7th January 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Victoria is IT Livery Company Professor of Information Technology.Victoria is a Senior Research Associate of the Intellectual Forum at Jesus College, Cambridge, a Senior Research Fellow of the British Foreign Policy Group, and a Fellow of the British Computer Society.

Ryan and Rory, two friends who met at Bournemouth University, joined forces to create the duo "RSquared." Taking inspiration from Music On and Paradise, as well as their love of disco, funk, and tech, they nurtured their sound to create a unique, catchy, and energetic vibe. Since releasing their first EP in early 2020, they have gone on to sign with record labels such as Knee Deep in Sound, 303 Lovers, Too Many Rules, and Libero Records, among others. RSquared's sharp percussion and rolling drums have garnered support from DJs such as Hot Since 82, Marco Carola, Jamie Jones, Dennis Cruz, and Paco Osuna. They have also received a significant amount of support on radio stations such as BBC and Kiss FM. With 2023 on the horizon, the young duo is poised to cement their place as rising talents in the tech house scene. Connect with RSquared Website Instagram Soundcloud Twitter Facebook Key Background & Formation: R-squared formed while at Bournemouth University, initially starting as solo artists before coming together The name "R-squared" came after trying various options, chosen for its simplicity They started by DJing before moving into music production Got early studio lessons from established artists like Iglesias which helped accelerate their learning Musical Development & Style: Initially sounded similar to Iglesias but developed their own distinct sound incorporating: 80s influences and disco elements Distinctive use of big snares and percussion Multiple layered baselines created by combining different samples Known for their unique sampling techniques and loop manipulation Career Journey: Took 2-3 years of consistent releases before getting regular gigs Notable breakthrough track "Brown Eyes" released on Knee Deep Records Have upcoming releases planned with Nicole Moudaber's "In The Mood" label Looking to expand into US market and have plans for Miami Music Week Production Insights: Use creative sampling techniques, including: Combining multiple baseline samples Extensive use of percussion due to Rory's drumming background Starting tracks at slower BPM (122-123) before speeding up Focus on finding unique samples from obscure sources Personal Growth: Rory opened up about his sobriety journey (55 days at time of recording) Discussed how sobriety has improved his music production and performance Now taking piano lessons and exploring new creative outlets Emphasized the importance of discussing addiction/recovery in the music industry Industry Insights: Discussed changes in the industry including: Need for social media presence and marketing Importance of consistent releases Evolution of tech house sound Growing US market for their genre Balance between label releases and self-releasing Advice for New Artists: Start producing music alongside DJing rather than waiting Be consistent with releases (aim for monthly if possible) Don't be afraid to start by emulating others before developing your own sound Focus on being creative and finding unique samples Don't be too hard on yourself during the development process

Alice Findlay, RNIB Customer Voice Insight Co-ordinator shares the latest opportunities for blind and partially sighted people to get involved in with RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey. Opportunities highlighted this week included: Tell us about your voting experience  A few weeks ago we all went to the polls and every time we have an election we ask you to tell us about your voter experience, good or bad. The information you provide will be used to track what it is like for blind or partially sighted voters to cast their ballots.  Your experiences form the basis for our “Turned Out” reports, which we share with the UK Government and the Electoral Commission to keep the pressure up for improvements in the accessibility of voting.   This evidence is hugely important if we are to bring about change. Our past reports have contributed to improved Electoral Commission guidance and an increase in the provision of audio solutions in some polling stations but there's a long way to go if all blind and partially sighted voters are to feel confident voting independently and in secret, whether in the polling station or by postal vote. If you'd like to share your experience with us, you can complete our short survey. The survey will ask about your experience of voting (or why you didn't vote) in the 2024 UK General Election. If you'd like to complete the survey, please send an email to involvement@rnib.org.uk and you will be sent the link to the survey.  Are you a visually impaired football fan who attends live matches? Researchers at UCFB, Bournemouth University and Ulster University are exploring visually impaired peoples' experiences of watching live professional football in the UK. The study will investigate a wide range of topics including match-day routine, accessibility, sensory experience and fandom.  The researchers will be carrying out online semi-structured interviews in which you will be invited to share your experiences.  For more information and to take part, please email Dr Connor Penfold via c.penfold@ucfb.ac.uk Share Your Experience: Air Travel with Guide or Assistance Dogs Have you ever experienced problems whilst travelling by air with a guide or assistance dog? The European Guide Dog Association and Assistance Dogs International are gathering evidence of the problems experienced by guide and assistance dog users when travelling by air. These examples will be collated and forwarded to the European Civil Aviation Conference to inform them and influence their guidelines. If you have an experience you'd be willing to share you can fill out a very quick survey and help make air travel better for everyone with a guide or assistance dog.  If you would like to complete the survey, please send an email to involvement@rnib.org.uk and we'll send you the link to the survey.  To find out more about these and other Connect Voices opportunities along with how you can get involved with RNIB Connect Voices do visit - https://www.rnib.org.uk/connect-community/connect-voices-network/connect-voices-current-opportunities (Image shows RNIB logo.

Most of us in the equine assisted field are familiar with encountering skepticism - the inevitable "aren't you just giving kids pony rides?" attitude that can sometimes stand in the way of the field and its practitioners getting the recognition and therefore funding they deserve. Fortunately, in recent years there has been a massive uptick in the peer reviewed research into equine assisted modalities. Leading this field are Dr Ann Hemingway of Bournemouth University and her assistant researcher Kezia Sullivan. The results of some of their recent studies are frankly astonishing. For example, one study found that domestic violence, after just a 5 day equine intervention, went down a whopping 51% a year after the intervention was done. This points to major brain changes in those undergoing equine assisted interventions of all kinds. The rate that Dr. Hemingway and Ms. Sullivan are publishing is prolific, which is good news for all of us. So listen to what their latest studies have found and are finding - they are providing the kind of research sound bytes that we all need when talking to funders, education authorities, health services and the like. In addition, the two-woman team provides a service crunching data and producing studies on individual equine assisted organizations and methods. If you are looking to get your results proven in a peer reviewed study then you want to listen on.

(13:11) • My determination was a lot higher than probably 80-85% of the recruits. (15:47) • As a Royal Marine, it was a reality check. All of the sudden, the movies and all that goes out the window, and reality kicks in. (16:58) • Where the Hilos landed, there was no cover, and they left us there. It was as flat as a pool table. We couldn't go back; we couldn't go left or right; so the only thing we could do was a full frontal assault on this compound.  [We] Just showed the enemy what we're made of. (34:10) • [As we broke through a door] They just opened fire on the first team that went through the entryway, and I happened to take a round through the neck that hit me square in the spinal cord, and that was me – lights out. (44:45) • The next thing I remember was waking up probably about 3 months later. (46:36) • [My recovery was] hell on earth, man. (46:47) • You're fighting for your survival, fighting for your life, using everything you're got, just to not give in. (47:14) • They couldn't do an MRI because of the metal that was still stuck in my neck. (49:06) • I spent 12 months on my back, staring at the roof. (57:28)  • I'm not be the man to let the team down let the legacy of who we are down. I'm not gonna be that soldier. (58:57) • I think my brothers in arms – the support I got from them – is what probably got me through it. (60:24) • I just crossed a point where I decided I'm gonna make the best of it.  (60:59) • It's inspired the next generation of Special Forces Operators to go “Damn, look what these guys have done. Look at that legacy they left behind.“ (62:02) • I lost all my physical capabilities, but I still have my mind. (63:31) • I put all my energy, all my focus into education. (66:15) • [Marcus] That SF attitude they put inside of us when we get in there is a game changer. (67:38) • A big part of being in the SF world is being brave, and facing challenges. (70:45) • Living life to the max. That positivity, spinning that into people – is what the brand is all about.)  (71:55) • Live life to your fullest, because you never know when it's gonna be taken away. (73:41)

This episode is a recording of a Roundtable discussion during the first Cricket Research Network conference, held at the Museum of Welsh Cricket in Cardiff on 23 February 2024. The discussion was Chaired by Professor Dominic Malcolm (Loughborough University) and the participants (in the order in which they appear on the recording) were: Michael Collins, Associate Professor Modern History, UCL and member of the Independent Commission on Equity in Cricket (ICEC) Raf Nicholson, Senior Lecturer, Bournemouth University and Chair of the Cricket Research Network Mark Frost, Development Manager, Cricket Wales and Glamorgan Cricket Kate Aldridge, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Lead, England and Wales Cricket Board The theme of the conference was ‘Cricket in a post-ICEC World: Where do we go from here?' and the Roundtable discussion was framed around three central questions: what had been achieved since the publication of the ICEC report, what were the priority areas for future development, and how could the Cricket Research Network contribute to the important work of reducing, and ultimately eliminating, structural and institutional racism, sexism and class-based discrimination in the game.

Carolyn Mair, Ph.D., was always drawn to the world of fashion and even made her own creations while in university. Amid her doctoral research, Dr. Mair saw the opportunity to apply the benefits of psychology to the processes of the fashion industry to facilitate a healthier relationship between us and the garments we wear every day.  This episode of Menninger Clinic's Mind Dive Podcast features Dr. Mair, accomplished psychologist and author, joining hosts Dr. Kerry Horrell  and Dr. Bob Boland for a discussion of fashion and how it affects our mental health. She'll also touch on the hidden responsibilities that the fashion industry has regarding human development.  A behavioral psychologist and published author, Dr. Carolyn Mair has a Ph.D. in cognitive neuroscience from Bournemouth University. Before founding her own firm, Dr. Mair worked as a professor at the London College of Fashion, where she pioneered the field of fashion psychology, creating the world's first master's course in the field.  “When you put something on that you feel great in, it changes how you interact with people and how you feel about yourself,” said Dr. Mair. A pressing issue across the industry that the doctor has been working to change is the lack of standardized sizing across brands. The buying of clothes is important as a means of self-expression, so when it is derailed, it can be a source of great psychological distress. This is why Dr. Mair works with brands at the manufacturing level to create more uniform sizing. Creating a positive experience helps shoppers avoid those moments of distress and makes them much more likely to shop with a specific brand again, according to Dr. Mair's research.  Follow The Menninger Clinic on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn to never miss an episode of Mind Dive.

Rayan is a PHD Candidate at Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom. Recently, Rayan wrote a blog post entitled "The Transformation of Saudi Arabia's Public Diplomacy" for the University of Southern California's Center for Public Diplomacy website that discussed Saudi Arabia's "significant influence in the international arena.""As the wealthiest Middle Eastern state and the birthplace of Islam, it holds a prominent position in the Middle East and the Muslim world. Internationally, Saudi Arabia is a major contributor to organizations such as the Global Fund and the World Health Organization, in addition to being the largest oil exporter. However, its soft power and public diplomacy remain underexplored."The 996 team explores the reasons for this with Rayan and how Saudi Arabia's public diplomacy has evolved since the launch of Vision 2030.

For Ellie Wilson, now 25, it's been a year since the man she once called her boyfriend was convicted of raping her and sentenced to five years in prison. Research shows that one in four women have been raped or sexually assaulted as adults, but it is estimated that only one in six will report it with less than 1% of reported cases ending in a conviction. Ellie speaks to Nuala to explain why she chose to waive her right to anonymity and what propels her to continue to campaign for reform of the justice system in light of her experience. Plans for Britain's first women's-only tower block, to be built in Ealing, west London, have been approved. The brainchild of the housing association Women's Pioneer Housing, it will be a 15-storey tower containing 102 flats to be rented to single women, in particular women who are disadvantaged in the housing market. Nuala is joined by the Chief Executive, Tracey Downie, and Vicky Spratt, the Housing Correspondent for the i newspaper, to discuss its potential social impact. Why does rejection hurt so much? And what are some coping mechanisms can people use? Nuala discusses with the Chartered psychologist Fiona Murden, and Kate Wills who describes her fear of rejection, how it has held her back in life, and an experiment she undertook to try and cure it. Many listeners will know that Radio 4's Woman's Hour has been broadcast for more than 75 years – since October 1946. But far less well known is an earlier programme called Women's Hour, which first appeared 100 years ago, in early May 1923. To find about more Nuala speaks to Dr Kate Murphy, Visiting Fellow at Bournemouth University - and author of the book Behind the Wireless: A History of Early Women at the BBC.
