This week on the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast, I'm thrilled to bring you a deeply honest and much-needed conversation with Mark Caravaggio of Intune Events. If you've ever felt confused, frustrated, or even a little burned by gatekeeping, hidden fees, or the infamous “preferred vendor list,” this episode is going to speak to you.Mark and I dive into transparency in the wedding industry—what it really means, why it matters, and how it affects vendors, venues, and, most importantly, couples. We talk about pay-to-play models, vendor commissions, and the hidden costs of getting listed in publications or preferred partnerships. Mark also opens up about his personal journey of walking away from a business model that no longer aligned with his values—even though it accounted for 70% of his bookings.In this episode, we explore:The emotional weight and vulnerability of being a wedding vendorHow hiding pricing affects client trust and booking ratesWhy authenticity and connection beat old-school sales tacticsThe truth behind pay-to-play vendor lists and “secret” commissionsWhat happens when you walk away from 70% of your business to build something betterHow to rebuild and thrive after business burnout or vendor trauma

Ya está en marcha una nueva edición del Festival de Cannes y lo celebramos por todo lo alto con cine español. Oliver Laxe ha presentado en sección oficial ‘Sirât', un impactante viaje por el desierto con música electrónica. Además, por aquí se ha paseado Tom Cruise para presentar la última de ‘Misión imposible' y Robert de Niro ha recibido la Palma de Oro honorífica. En este episodio comentamos lo mejor de estos primeros días de festival y también analizamos los estrenos con óperas primas como ‘Lo que queda de ti' y ‘Tras el verano' y con documentales como el de Almudena Grandes y el del Caravaggio perdido. En televisión, charlamos con Jaime Foxx de un documental sobre las luchas de los actores y actrices negras de Hollywood.
Ela foi uma criança e adolescente ativa. Brincava na rua de pega-pega, esconde-esconde, depois, na adolescência entrou na onda dos patins e andou de bicicleta. Formada em Nutrição, atuou em hospitais, UTIs, maternidades e na Saúde da Família. Para manter-se ativa, praticava musculação e aulas na academia, até aceitar, com ceticismo, o convite para sua primeira corrida de rua. O bom resultado a deixou animada e continuou correndo por alguns anos, treinando quando a rotina permitia. Casou-se e, em busca de mais qualidade de vida, mudou-se para Imbituba, Santa Catarina. Lá, abriram uma pousada, e foi então que ela descobriu as corridas fora do asfalto. A localização privilegiada, cercada pela natureza, alinhava-se à sua filosofia de vida, e ela decidiu experimentar. Logo em sua estreia, conquistou o segundo lugar no Desafio Baleia Franca, uma competição de dois dias, com 25 km no primeiro e 10 km no segundo. Vegana há 12 anos, transformou sua alimentação plant-based e seus valores éticos em combustível para enfrentar os desafios do trail running brasileiro. Acumulou recordes em provas como o UT Extreme Winter (2018), Naventura Garopaba (2018) e Amazing Runs Garopaba (2019). Em 2019, conquistou seu primeiro pódio na lendária La Mission Brasil (80 km). Com o tempo, sua vocação para as distâncias épicas se confirmou, e em 2023 sagrou-se campeã da La Mission Serra Fina (53 km), além de integrar a equipe brasileira campeã mundial master de skyrunning. Em 2024, alcançou o ápice ao vencer novamente a La Mission Brasil (80 km), consolidando-se como uma das maiores atletas do circuito nacional. Nem mesmo uma fratura no braço, após uma queda no UTMB Paraty 2024, a deteve — dois meses e meio depois, voltou às competições com a mesma determinação e conquistou o segundo lugar no Campeonato Brasileiro de Stairclimbing, subindo os 32 andares de um edifício em Chapecó (SC). Conosco aqui, a nutricionista esportiva e referência no trail e skyrunning nacional, sócia da Animal Runners Assessoria de Corrida, ela é a prova de que ética alimentar e alta performance podem caminhar juntas. Este ano, já venceu os 50km da Ultra Caminhos de Caravaggio e da Indomit Pedra do Baú, a paulistana Mariana Pipolo Scarpelli Martin. Inspire-se!

En una casa de Madrid llevaban décadas cenando con un Caravaggio en el comedor y no lo sabían. Cuando toca mudarse de casa, deciden entregar el cuadro a una casa de subastas, que lo mete en su catálogo con un precio de salida de 1.500 euros. Los anticuarios y marchantes de media Europa, solo a partir de esa pequeña foto, deciden que puede ser obra de Caravaggio, el gran "rockstar" del arte barroco. El director Álvaro Longoria, amigo de Jorge Coll, uno de los marchantes, el que consigue hacerse cómplice de la familia propietaria, sigue el proceso desde su arranque. El resultado es "The Sleeper: el Caravaggio perdido" un documental a ritmo de thriller que nos sumerge en el mundo desconocido del negocio del arte. Álvaro Longoria charla con Àngels, Nacho Carretero y Aitana Castaño sobre cómo se dio cuenta de que tenía entre manos una historia apasionante de tensión, estrategia, arte y muchísimo dinero.
En 'El Comando Norte' hablamos con Álvaro Longoria, director del documental 'The Sleeper: el Caravaggio perdido', sobre un cuadro que estuvo durante años colgado en el salón de una familia madrileña sin saber su valor. En 'Miss Experiencia' damos la bienvenida a Pilar (85 años), que tiene una historia de película americana. Con Eduardo Barba recorremos el huerto botánico El Bartolí, con 500 variedades de cítricos. Y Martín Bianchi nos cuenta qué pasa con Shakira y con Enrique Iglesias.
La prima parte della puntata di oggi sarà dedicata all'attualità. Cominceremo parlando della decisione della Germania di classificare l'AfD come organizzazione di estrema destra. L'Ufficio federale per la protezione della Costituzione ha motivato la scelta facendo riferimento alle posizioni xenofobe del partito. Proseguiremo con un'analisi dello stato attuale del movimento populista. Donald Trump doveva spazzare via i centristi dell'establishment con una rivolta populista globale contro la cultura woke. Ma il suo turbolento secondo mandato sembra sortire l'effetto opposto. Poi, ci concentreremo sui risultati del Global Flourishing Study, pubblicati la settimana scorsa. E per finire, parleremo di quale sia l'abbigliamento appropriato per i leader mondiali in base alle occasioni. A tal riguardo, il Presidente degli Stati Uniti, Donald Trump è stato criticato per non aver rispettato il decoro durante i funerali del Papa. Il resto della puntata sarà dedicato alla lingua e alla cultura italiana. Nel dialogo di grammatica ci saranno tanti esempi di Irregular Verbs in the passato remoto. Infine, l'ultima conversazione illustrerà l'uso di un altro proverbio italiano: Consolarsi con l'aglietto. - La Germania designa ufficialmente l'AfD come gruppo estremista di destra - Il populismo globale sta subendo un contraccolpo a causa delle politiche di Trump? - Lo studio Global Flourishing rivela vincitori inattesi e risultati mediocri - Trump criticato per aver infranto il protocollo durante i funerali del Papa - La grande mostra di Caravaggio a Roma - Tradizione o rivoluzione: il conclave e il futuro della Chiesa
There's one museum in Rome that has it all—and it's not the Vatican. The Capitoline Museums are comprised of a collection of nearly everything you could hope for in a museum—sumptuous frescoed rooms, Caravaggio paintings, Bernini sculptures, ancient bronze and marble statuary, panoramic views of the Roman Forum, fascinating artifacts, and the ruins of Rome's oldest and most important temple. And believe it or not, it's never crowded. Not even in high season. On this mini-episode, Tiffany talks about why she adores this museum, and believes it's Rome's best-kept secret that blows the Vatican Museums out of the water.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ https://www.bastabugie.it/8146OMELIA III DOMENICA PASQUA - ANNO C (Gv 21, 1-19) di Don Stefano Bimbi I discepoli sono in un momento di attesa, di incertezza. Hanno visto il Risorto, ma non sanno ancora bene cosa fare. Pietro torna a pescare, a ciò che conosce, alla sua vecchia vita. Gesù si manifesta al mattino, nella luce nuova. Non è riconosciuto subito: è discreto, quasi nascosto. Ma quando i discepoli obbediscono alla sua Parola, succede qualcosa di inaspettato: la rete si riempie. È in quel segno che Giovanni esclama: "È il Signore!".È una scena che parla anche a te, che magari stai attraversando una fase di confusione, di passaggio: un nuovo lavoro, il fallimento di alcune relazioni, dubbi di fede. A volte, quando non capiamo cosa sta succedendo, torniamo a ciò che ci è familiare. Ma in questa notte, la pesca è un fallimento. Non basta tornare alle "vecchie reti" se manca il senso. Ma c'è una speranza. Anche tu, nella tua vita quotidiana, puoi non accorgerti subito della presenza di Gesù. Ma a volte basta un gesto semplice, un ascolto sincero, una parola inattesa... e Lui si rivela. In quali momenti della tua vita hai percepito che "era il Signore"? Riesci a riconoscerlo anche oggi? E se Gesù ti chiamasse adesso, sulla riva della tua vita, lo riconosceresti? E cosa faresti: resteresti in barca o ti getteresti in acqua come Pietro per corrergli incontro?PORTATE UN PO' DEL PESCE CHE AVETE PRESO ORAGesù ha già il fuoco acceso e il pasto pronto. Ma chiede ai discepoli di portare anche il loro pesce. Non perché ne abbia bisogno, ma perché vuole che facciano la loro parte. È così anche con te. Dio non ti scavalca. Ti chiede collaborazione, ti dà responsabilità. Il miracolo è suo, ma le reti le ha usate con te. Cosa puoi portare tu oggi al fuoco di Gesù? Cosa hai da offrirgli della tua vita ordinaria?Gesù non chiede a Pietro "Sei pronto?", "Sei capace?", "Hai rimediato ai tuoi errori?". No. Gli chiede: "Mi ami?". Tre volte. È un dialogo profondo, che passa anche attraverso la ferita del triplice rinnegamento. Pietro risponde con sincerità: "Tu lo sai che ti voglio bene". L'amore è ciò che fonda ogni vocazione, ogni missione. Anche nella tua vita, Gesù ti chiede prima di tutto questo: "Mi ami?". Non chiede perfezione, chiede fiducia in Lui. Se oggi Gesù ti guardasse negli occhi e ti chiedesse "Mi ami?", cosa gli risponderesti?Gesù conclude il dialogo con Pietro con una parola decisiva: "Seguimi". Non gli promette un cammino facile. Gli preannuncia una vita donata fino alla fine. Ma Pietro ora è pronto. Non perché è diventato perfetto, ma perché ha capito che amare Gesù significa seguirlo, anche nei momenti in cui "un altro ti porterà dove non vuoi".Questo Vangelo è un invito personale, oggi, a ritrovare Gesù nella tua quotidianità, a lasciarti coinvolgere da Lui, a rispondere con amore e coraggio. Anche tu, come Pietro, puoi dire: "Tu lo sai che ti voglio bene". E poi alzarti e seguirlo. Cosa significa per te oggi "seguire Gesù"? Cosa sei disposto a lasciare? Dove ti sta chiamando?DOMINE, QUO VADIS?Dopo quel giorno sul lago di Tiberìade, Pietro non è più lo stesso. Quel "Mi ami?" ripetuto tre volte gli brucia dentro, ma lo rende anche libero. Libero di non appoggiarsi più sulla sua forza, ma sull'amore ricevuto da Dio. Libero di iniziare davvero a "pascolare" il gregge del Signore: guidare la Chiesa e confermare nella fede i discepoli di Cristo.Dopo la Pentecoste, troviamo Pietro a Gerusalemme a predicare e convertire i fratelli ebrei, sempre pronto a testimoniare Cristo, anche se viene arrestato per questo. Infine, arriva a Roma, la capitale dell'impero, il centro del potere del mondo di allora. Ma Roma è ostile, i cristiani sono pochi, spesso maltrattati.Durante una persecuzione particolarmente feroce sotto l'imperatore Nerone, Pietro decide di lasciare Roma. Camminando lungo la via Appia, diretto fuori città, gli appare Gesù che cammina nella direzione opposta portando una pesante croce. Pietro, sconvolto, gli chiede: "Domine, quo vadis?" ("Signore, dove vai?"). E Gesù risponde: "Vado a Roma a farmi crocifiggere di nuovo". Pietro capisce. Ha sbagliato ancora una volta, ma è l'ultima. Non deve più fuggire. Torna a Roma a compiere fino in fondo la volontà del suo Maestro e Signore.E a Roma viene imprigionato nel carcere Mamertino, vicino al Foro Romano. Una cella buia, umida, isolata. Pietro non si scoraggia, anzi per lui la fine non è un fallimento, ma compimento. Sa che la sua morte è volontà di Dio. Quando arriva il momento dell'esecuzione, Pietro fa una richiesta che rivela tutta la sua umiltà: non si ritiene degno di morire allo stesso modo del suo Maestro. Per questo chiede di essere crocifisso a testa in giù. E così avviene: sul colle Vaticano, Pietro viene inchiodato a una croce rovesciata come si vede nel famoso dipinto del Caravaggio. È l'anno 64 d.C. In quel luogo l'imperatore Costantino, convertito al cristianesimo, farà costruire la Basilica di San Pietro, a custodire la memoria del pescatore diventato pastore. Sarà Papa Pio XII ad ordinare nel 1940 gli scavi sotto l'altare della basilica vaticana dove vengono ritrovate una decina d'anni più tardi sia la tomba che le ossa appartenute a Pietro, come dimostrò l'archeologa ed epigrafista Margherita Guarducci. Il 26 giugno 1968, durante un'udienza generale, Papa Paolo VI annunciò ufficialmente che "le ossa ritrovate appartengono all'Apostolo Pietro".Sei mai stato a visitare la necropoli sotto San Pietro? Basta prenotare per tempo la visita guidata che si conclude con la venerazione della tomba del capo degli apostoli, primo vescovo di Roma e primo Papa.La vita di Pietro è un viaggio che parte dal mare di Galilea dove era pescatore di pesci e finisce sulla croce dopo essere stato "pescatore di uomini", come predetto da Gesù, ma la sua morte non è stata una sconfitta. Anzi, è stata una vita spesa per amore di Gesù. Un amore imperfetto, umano, che però ha imparato a fidarsi di Dio fino alla fine.Da allora, fino alla fine dei tempi, il vescovo di Roma è il successore di Pietro e quindi il Papa regnante che garantisce l'unità della Chiesa Cattolica, l'unica autentica Chiesa di Cristo.
Įsižiūrime į Caravaggio šedevrą "Šventojo Tomo netikėjimas", susipažįstame su Tomu, kurio paveikslą nutapė Jonas, ir mėginame atsakyti į klausimą, ar Tomas buvo šventasis, ar netikintis.
From how many paintings Caravaggio produced, to visiting Florence at Easter time, to how form and color were applied in Renaissance painting, to an overlooked equestrian monument, to finding the wooden beams in Brunelleschi's dome, to the model used by Leonardo da Vinci in three of his most famous paintings, and much, much more - this episode answers the very questions that you ask me about the great art, artists and history of the Italian Renaissance.
Velika noč je pred vrati in ta nas vse vabi k ustvarjanju, risanju in barvanju. A pirhi niso edina likovna podoba, povezana s tem časom. Za vzdušje se bomo potopili med upodobitve evangelijskih besedil, ki govorijo predvsem o dogajanju na velikonočno nedeljo. Podobe vstalega so se pojavljale že v 4. in 5. stoletju, na zahod pa je motiv vstajenja prišel šele v 10. stoletju z Otoni. Esej je Miha Zor pripravil leta 2008. Slika (izrez): Večerja v Emavsu, ki jo je baročni mojster chiaro scura Caravaggio naslikal v letih 1600–1601. Gre za trenutek, ko se dvema učencema, ki sta se po Kristusovem pogrebu žalostna odpravila v Emavs, na poti pridruži Jezus, ki pa ga sprva nista prepoznala. Šele ko je med večerjo prelomil kruh, ga blagoslovil in jima ga dal, sta prepoznala svojega učitelja. On pa je izginil izpred njiju. Vir: National Gallery London in MMC

I read in your, your latest book - the book, Cynefin: Weaving Sense Making into the Fabric of Our World, which was released, I believe, in celebration of the twenty first year of the framework. And you mentioned that in your childhood, you had multidisciplinary upbringing which involved lots of reading. Could you tell us a bit more about that? Dave Snowden: I think it wasn't uncommon in those days. I mean, if you did… I mean, I did science A levels and mathematical A levels. But the assumption was you would read every novel that the academic English class were reading. In fact, it was just unimaginable (that) you wouldn't know the basics of history. So, if you couldn't survive that in the sixth form common room, and the basics of science were known by most of the arts people as well. So that that was common, right. And we had to debate every week anyway. So, every week, you went up to the front of the class and you were given a card, and you'd have the subject and which side you are on, and you had to speak for seven minutes without preparation. And we did that every week from the age of 11 to 18. And that was a wonderful discipline because it meant you read everything. But also, my mother was… both my parents were the first from working class communities to go to university. And they got there by scholarship or sheer hard work against the opposition of their families. My mother went to university in Germany just after the war, which was extremely brave of her - you know, as a South Wales working class girl. So, you weren't allowed not to be educated, it was considered the unforgivable sin. Ula Ojiaku: Wow. Did it mean that she had to learn German, because (she was) studying in Germany…? Dave Snowden: She well, she got A levels in languages. So, she went to university to study German and she actually ended up as a German teacher, German and French. So, she had that sort of background. Yeah. Ula Ojiaku: And was that what influenced you? Because you also mentioned in the book that you won a £60 prize? Dave Snowden: Oh, no, that was just fun. So, my mum was very politically active. We're a South Wales labor. Well, I know if I can read but we were labor. And so, she was a local Councilor. She was always politically active. There's a picture of me on Bertrand Russell's knee and her as a baby on a CND march. So it was that sort of background. And she was campaigning for comprehensive education, and had a ferocious fight with Aiden Williams, I think, who was the Director of Education, it was really nasty. I mean, I got threatened on my 11 Plus, he got really nasty. And then so when (I was) in the sixth form, I won the prize in his memory, which caused endless amusement in the whole county. All right. I think I probably won it for that. But that was for contributions beyond academic. So, I was leading lots of stuff in the community and stuff like that. But I had £60. And the assumption was, you go and buy one massive book. And I didn't, I got Dad to drive me to Liverpool - went into the big bookshop there and just came out with I mean, books for two and six pence. So, you can imagine how many books I could get for £60. And I just took everything I could find on philosophy and history and introductory science and stuff like that and just consumed it. Ula Ojiaku: Wow, it seemed like you already knew what you wanted even before winning the prize money, you seem to have had a wish list... Dave Snowden: I mean, actually interesting, and the big things in the EU field guide on (managing) complexity which was just issued. You need to build…, You need to stop saying, ‘this is the problem, we will find the solution' to saying, ‘how do I build capability, that can solve problems we haven't yet anticipated?' And I think that's part of the problem in education. Because my children didn't have that benefit. They had a modular education. Yeah, we did a set of exams at 16 and a set of exams that 18 and between those periods, we could explore it (i.e. options) and we had to hold everything in our minds for those two periods, right? For my children, it was do a module, pass a test, get a mark, move on, forget it move on. So, it's very compartmentalized, yeah? And it's also quite instrumentalist. We, I think we were given an education as much in how to learn and have had to find things out. And the debating tradition was that; you didn't know what you're going to get hit with. So, you read everything, and you thought about it, and you learn to think on your feet. And I think that that sort of a broad switch, it started to happen in the 80s, along with a lot of other bad things in management. And this is when systems thinking started to dominate. And we moved to an engineering metaphor. And you can see it in cybernetics and everything else, it's an attempt to define everything as a machine. And of course, machines are designed for a purpose, whereas ecosystems evolve for resilience. And I think that's kind of like where I, my generation were and it's certainly what we're trying to bring back in now in sort of in terms of practice. Ula Ojiaku: I have an engineering background and a computer science background. These days, I'm developing a newfound love for philosophy, psychology, law and, you know, intersect, how do all these concepts intersect? Because as human beings we're complex, we're not machines where you put the program in and you expect it to come out the same, you know, it's not going to be the same for every human being. What do you think about that? Dave Snowden: Yeah. And I think, you know, we know more on this as well. So, we know the role of art in human evolution is being closely linked to innovation. So, art comes before language. So, abstraction allows you to make novel connections. So, if you focus entirely on STEM education, you're damaging the human capacity to innovate. And we're, you know, as creatures, we're curious. You know. And I mean, we got this whole concept of our aporia, which is key to connecting that, which is creating a state of deliberate confusion, or a state of paradox. And the essence of a paradox is you can't resolve it. So, you're forced to think differently. So, the famous case on this is the liar's paradox, alright? I mean, “I always lie”. That just means I lied. So, if that means I was telling the truth. So, you've got to think differently about the problem. I mean, you've seen those paradoxes do the same thing. So that, that deliberate act of creating confusion so people can see novelty is key. Yeah. Umm and if you don't find… finding ways to do that, so when we looked at it, we looked at linguistic aporia, aesthetic aporia and physical aporia. So, I got some of the… one of the defining moments of insight on Cynefin was looking at Caravaggio`s paintings in Naples. When I realized I've been looking for the idea of the liminality. And that was, and then it all came together, right? So those are the trigger points requiring a more composite way of learning. I think it's also multiculturalism, to be honest. I mean, I, when I left university, I worked on the World Council of Churches come, you know program to combat racism. Ula Ojiaku: Yes, I'd like to know more about that. That's one of my questions… Dave Snowden: My mother was a good atheist, but she made me read the Bible on the basis, I wouldn't understand European literature otherwise, and the penetration guys, I became a Catholic so… Now, I mean, that that was fascinating, because I mean, I worked on Aboriginal land rights in Northern Australia, for example. And that was when I saw an activist who was literally murdered in front of me by a security guard. And we went to the police. And they said, it's only an Abo. And I still remember having fights in Geneva, because South Africa was a tribal conflict with a racial overlay. I mean, Africa, and its Matabele Zulu, arrived in South Africa together and wiped out the native population. And if you don't understand that, you don't understand the Matabele betrayal. You don't understand what happened. It doesn't justify apartheid. And one of the reasons there was a partial reconciliation, is it actually was a tribal conflict. And the ritual actually managed that. Whereas in Australia, in comparison was actually genocide. Yeah, it wasn't prejudice, it was genocide. I mean, until 1970s, there, were still taking half -breed children forcibly away from their parents, inter-marrying them in homes, to breed them back to white. And those are, I think, yeah, a big market. I argued this in the UK, I said, one of the things we should actually have is bring back national service. I couldn't get the Labor Party to adopt it. I said, ‘A: Because it would undermine the Conservatives, because they're the ones who talk about that sort of stuff. But we should allow it to be overseas.' So, if you put two years into working in communities, which are poorer than yours, round about that 18 to 21-year-old bracket, then we'll pay for your education. If you don't, you'll pay fees. Because you proved you want to give to society. And that would have been… I think, it would have meant we'd have had a generation of graduates who understood the world because that was part of the objective. I mean, I did that I worked on worked in South Africa, on the banks of Zimbabwe on the audits of the refugee camps around that fight. And in Sao Paulo, in the slums, some of the work of priests. You can't come back from that and not be changed. And I think it's that key formative period, we need to give people. Ula Ojiaku: True and like you said, at that age, you know, when you're young and impressionable, it helps with what broadening your worldview to know that the world is bigger than your father's … compound (backyard)… Dave Snowden: That's the worst problem in Agile, because what, you've got a whole class of, mainly white males and misogynism in Agile is really bad. It's one of the worst areas for misogyny still left, right, in terms of where it works. Ula Ojiaku: I'm happy you are the one saying it not me… Dave Snowden: Well, no, I mean, it is it's quite appalling. And so, what you've actually got is, is largely a bunch of white male game players who spent their entire time on computers. Yeah, when you take and run seriously after puberty, and that's kind of like a dominant culture. And that's actually quite dangerous, because it lacks, it lacks cultural diversity, it lacks ethnic diversity, it lacks educational diversity. And I wrote an article for ITIL, recently, which has been published, which said, no engineers should be allowed out, without training in ethics. Because the implications of what software engineers do now are huge. And the problem we've got, and this is a really significant, it's a big data problem as well. And you see it with a behavioral economic economist and the nudge theory guys - all of whom grab these large-scale data manipulations is that they're amoral, they're not immoral, they're amoral. And that's actually always more scary. It's this sort of deep level instrumentalism about the numbers; the numbers tell me what I need to say. Ula Ojiaku: And also, I mean, just building on what you've said, there are instances, for example, in artificial intelligence is really based on a sample set from a select group, and it doesn't necessarily recognize things that are called ‘outliers'. You know, other races… Dave Snowden: I mean, I've worked in that in all my life now back 20, 25 years ago. John Poindexter and I were on a stage in a conference in Washington. This was sort of early days of our work on counter terrorism. And somebody asked about black box AI and I said, nobody's talking about the training data sets. And I've worked in AI from the early days, all right, and the training data sets matter and nobody bothered. They just assumed… and you get people publishing books which say correlation is causation, which is deeply worrying, right? And I think Google is starting to acknowledge that, but it's actually very late. And the biases which… we were looking at a software tool the other day, it said it can, it can predict 85% of future events around culture. Well, it can only do that by constraining how executive see culture, so it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. And then the recruitment algorithms will only recruit people who match that cultural expectation and outliers will be eliminated. There's an HBO film coming up shortly on Myers Briggs. Now, Myers Briggs is known to be a pseudo-science. It has no basis whatsoever in any clinical work, and even Jung denied it, even though it's meant to be based on his work. But it's beautiful for HR departments because it allows them to put people into little categories. And critically it abrogates, judgment, and that's what happened with systems thinking in the 80s 90s is everything became spreadsheets and algorithms. So, HR departments would produce… instead of managers making decisions based on judgment, HR departments would force them into profile curves, to allocate resources. Actually, if you had a high performing team who were punished, because the assumption was teams would not have more than… Ula Ojiaku: Bell curve... Dave Snowden: …10 percent high performance in it. All right. Ula Ojiaku: Yeah. Dave Snowden: And this sort of nonsense has been running in the 80s, 90s and it coincided with… three things came together. One was the popularization of systems thinking. And unfortunately, it got popularized around things like process reengineering and learning organization. So that was a hard end. And Sanghi's pious can the sort of the, the soft end of it, right? But both of them were highly directional. It was kind of like leaders decide everything follows. Yeah. And that coincided with the huge growth of computing - the ability to handle large volumes of information. And all of those sorts of things came together in this sort of perfect storm, and we lost a lot of humanity in the process. Ula Ojiaku: Do you think there's hope for us to regain the humanity in the process? Because it seems like the tide is turning from, I mean, there is still an emphasis, in my view, on systems thinking, however, there is the growing realization that we have, you know, knowledge workers and people… Dave Snowden: Coming to the end of its park cycle, I see that all right. I can see it with the amount of cybernetics fanboys, and they are all boys who jump on me every time I say something about complexity, right? So, I think they're feeling threatened. And the field guide is significant, because it's a government, you know, government can like publication around effectively taken an ecosystems approach, not a cybernetic approach. And there's a book published by a good friend of mine called Terry Eagleton, who's… I don't think he's written a bad book. And he's written about 30, or 40. I mean, the guy just produces his stuff. It's called “Hope without Optimism”. And I think, hope is… I mean, Moltman just also published an update of his Theology of Hope, which is worth reading, even if you're not religious. But hope is one of those key concepts, right, you should… to lose hope is a sin. But hope is not the same thing as optimism. In fact, pessimistic people who hope actually are probably the ones who make a difference, because they're not naive, right? And this is my objection to the likes of Sharma Ga Sengi, and the like, is they just gather people together to talk about how things should be. And of course, everything should be what, you know, white MIT, educated males think the world should be like. I mean, it's very culturally imperialist in that sort of sense. And then nobody changes because anybody can come together in the workshop and agree how things should be. It's when you make a difference in the field that it counts, you've got to create a micro difference. This is hyper localization, you got to create lots and lots of micro differences, which will stimulate the systems, the system will change. I think, three things that come together, one is COVID. The other is global warming. And the other is, and I prefer to call it the epistemic justice movement, though, that kind of like fits in with Black Lives Matter. But epistemic justice doesn't just affect people who are female or black. I mean, if you come to the UK and see the language about the Welsh and the Irish, or the jokes made about the Welsh in BBC, right? The way we use language can designate people in different ways and I think that's a big movement, though. And it's certainly something we develop software for. So, I think those three come together, and I think the old models aren't going to be sustainable. I mean, the cost is going to be terrible. I mean, the cost to COVID is already bad. And we're not getting this thing as long COVID, it's permanent COVID. And people need to start getting used to that. And I think that's, that's going to change things. So, for example, in the village I live in Wiltshire. Somebody's now opened an artisan bakery in their garage and it's brilliant. And everybody's popping around there twice a week and just buying the bread and having a chat on the way; socially-distanced with masks, of course. And talking of people, that sort of thing is happening a lot. COVID has forced people into local areas and forced people to realise the vulnerability of supply chains. So, you can see changes happening there. The whole Trump phenomenon, right, and the Boris murmuring in the UK is ongoing. It's just as bad as the Trump phenomenon. It's the institutionalization of corruption as a high level. Right? Those sorts of things trigger change, right? Not without cost, change never comes without cost, but it just needs enough… It needs local action, not international action. I think that's the key principle. To get a lot of people to accept things like the Paris Accord on climate change, and you've got to be prepared to make sacrifices. And it's too distant a time at the moment, it has to become a local issue for the international initiatives to actually work and we're seeing that now. I mean… Ula Ojiaku: It sounds like, sorry to interrupt - it sounds like what you're saying is, for the local action, for change to happen, it has to start with us as individuals… Dave Snowden: The disposition… No, not with individuals. That's actually very North American, the North European way of thinking right. The fundamental kind of basic identity structure of humans is actually clans, not individuals. Ula Ojiaku: Clans... Dave Snowden: Yeah. Extended families, clans; it's an ambiguous word. We actually evolved for those. And you need it at that level, because that's a high level of social interaction and social dependency. And it's like, for example, right? I'm dyslexic. Right? Yeah. If I don't see if, if the spelling checker doesn't pick up a spelling mistake, I won't see it. And I read a whole page at a time. I do not read it sentence by sentence. All right. And I can't understand why people haven't seen the connections I make, because they're obvious, right? Equally, there's a high degree of partial autism in the Agile community, because that goes with mathematical ability and thing, and that this so-called education deficiencies, and the attempt to define an ideal individual is a mistake, because we evolved to have these differences. Ula Ojiaku: Yes. Dave Snowden: Yeah. And the differences understood that the right level of interaction can change things. So, I think the unit is clan, right for extended family, or extended, extended interdependence. Ula Ojiaku: Extended interdependence… Dave Snowden: We're seeing that in the village. I mean, yeah, this is classic British atomistic knit, and none of our relatives live anywhere near us. But the independence in the village is increasing with COVID. And therefore, people are finding relationships and things they can do together. Now, once that builds to a critical mass, and it does actually happen exponentially, then bigger initiatives are possible. And this is some of the stuff we were hoping to do in the US shortly on post-election reconciliation. And the work we've been doing in Malmo, in refugees and elsewhere in the world, right, is you change the nature of localized interaction with national visibility, so that you can measure the dispositional state of the system. And then you can nudge the system when it's ready to change, because then the energy cost of change is low. But that requires real time feedback loops in distributed human sensor networks, which is a key issue in the field guide. And the key thing that comes back to your original question on AI, is, the internet at the moment is an unbuffered feedback loop. Yeah, where you don't know the source of the data, and you can't control the source of the data. And any network like that, and this is just apriori science factor, right will always become perverted. Ula Ojiaku: And what do you mean by term apriori? Dave Snowden: Oh, before the facts, you don't need to, we don't need to wait for evidence. It's like in an agile, you can look at something like SAFe® which case claims to scale agile and just look at it you say it's apriori wrong (to) a scale a complex system. So, it's wrong. All right. End of argument right. Now let's talk about the details, right. So yeah, so that's, you know, that's coming back. The hyper localization thing is absolutely key on that, right? And the same is true to be honest in software development. A lot of our work now is to understand the unarticulated needs of users. And then shift technology in to actually meet those unarticulated needs. And that requires a complex approach to architecture, in which people and technology are objects with defined interactions around scaffolding structures, so that applications can emerge in resilience, right? And that's actually how local communities evolve as well. So, we've now got the theoretical constructs and a lot of the practical methods to actually… And I've got a series of blog posts - which I've got to get back to writing - called Rewilding Agile. And rewilding isn't returning to the original state, it's restoring balance. So, if you increase the number of human actors as your primary sources, and I mean human actors, not as people sitting on (in front of) computer screens who can be faked or mimicked, yeah? … and entirely working on text, which is about 10%, of what we know, dangerous, it might become 80% of what we know and then you need to panic. Right? So, you know, by changing those interactions, increasing the human agency in the system, that's how you come to, that's how you deal with fake news. It's not by writing better algorithms, because then it becomes a war with the guys faking the news, and you're always gonna lose. Ula Ojiaku: So, what do you consider yourself, a person of faith? Dave Snowden: Yeah. Ula Ojiaku: Why? Dave Snowden: Oh, faith is like hope and charity. I mean, they're the great virtues… I didn't tell you I got into a lot in trouble in the 70s. Dave Snowden: I wrote an essay that said Catholicism, Marxism and Hinduism were ontologically identical and should be combined and we're different from Protestantism and capitalism, which are also ontologically identical (and) it can be combined. Ula Ojiaku: Is this available in the public domain? Dave Snowden: I doubt it. I think it actually got me onto a heresy trial at one point, but that but I would still say that. Ula Ojiaku: That's amazing. Can we then move to the framework that Cynefin framework, how did it evolve into what we know it as today? Dave Snowden: I'll do a high-level summary, but I wrote it up at length in the book and I didn't know I was writing for the book. The book was a surprise that they put together for me. I thought that was just writing an extended blog post. It started when I was working in IBM is it originates from the work of Max Borrasso was my mentor for years who tragically died early. But he was looking at abstraction, codification and diffusion. We did a fair amount of work together, I took two of those aspects and started to look at informal and formal communities in IBM, and its innovation. And some of the early articles on Cynefin, certainly the early ones with the five domains come from that period. And at that time, we had access labels. Yeah. And then then complexity theory came into it. So, it shifted into being a complexity framework. And it stayed … The five domains were fairly constant for a fairly long period of time, they changed their names a bit. The central domain I knew was important, but didn't have as much prominence as it does now. And then I introduced liminality, partly driven by agile people, actually, because they could they couldn't get the concept there were dynamics and domains. So, they used to say things like, ‘look, Scrum is a dynamic. It's a way of shifting complex to complicated' and people say ‘no, the scrum guide said it's about complex.' And you think, ‘oh, God, Stacey has a lot to answer for' but… Ula Ojiaku: Who`s Stacey? Dave Snowden: Ralph Stacey. So, he was the guy originally picked up by Ken when he wrote the Scrum Guide… Ula Ojiaku: Right. Okay. Dave Snowden: Stacey believes everything's complex, which is just wrong, right? So, either way, Cynefin evolved with the liminal aspects. And then the last resolution last year, which is… kind of completes Cynefin to be honest, there's some refinements… was when we realized that the central domain was confused, or operatic. And that was the point where you started. So, you didn't start by putting things into the domain, you started in the operatic. And then you moved aspects of things into the different domains. So that was really important. And it got picked up in Agile, ironically, by the XP community. So, I mean, I was in IT most of my life, I was one of the founders of the DSDM Consortium, and then moved sideways from that, and was working in counterterrorism and other areas, always you're working with technology, but not in the Agile movement. Cynefin is actually about the same age as Agile, it started at the same time. And the XP community in London invited me in, and I still think Agile would have been better if it had been built on XP, not Scrum. But it wouldn't have scaled with XP, I mean, without Scrum it would never have scaled it. And then it got picked up. And I think one of the reasons it got picked up over Stacey is, it said order is possible. It didn't say everything is complex. And virtually every Agile method I know of value actually focuses on making complex, complicated. Ula Ojiaku: Yes. Dave Snowden: And that's its power. What they're… what is insufficient of, and this is where we've been working is what I call pre-Scrum techniques. Techniques, which define what should go into that process. Right, because all of the Agile methods still tend to be a very strong manufacturing metaphor - manufacturing ideas. So, they assume somebody will tell them what they have to produce. And that actually is a bad way of thinking about IT. Technology needs to co-evolve. And users can't articulate what they want, because they don't know what technology can do. Ula Ojiaku: True. But are you saying… because in Agile fundamentally, it's really about making sure there's alignment as well that people are working on the right thing per time, but you're not telling them how to do it? Dave Snowden: Well, yes and no - all right. I mean, it depends what you're doing. I mean, some Agile processes, yes. But if you go through the sort of safe brain remain processes, very little variety within it, right? And self-organization happens within the context of a user executive and retrospectives. Right, so that's its power. And, but if you look at it, it took a really good technique called time-boxing, and it reduced it to a two-week sprint. Now, that's one aspect of time boxing. I mean, I've got a whole series of blog posts next week on this, because time boxing is a hugely valuable technique. It says there's minimal deliverable project, and maximum deliverable product and a minimal level of resource and a maximum level of resource. And the team commits to deliver on the date. Ula Ojiaku: To accurate quality… to a quality standard. Dave Snowden: Yeah, so basically, you know that the worst case, you'll get the minimum product at the maximum cost, but you know, you'll get it on that date. So, you can deal with it, alright. And that's another technique we've neglected. We're doing things which force high levels of mutation and requirements over 24 hours, before they get put into a Scrum process. Because if you just take what users want, you know, there's been insufficient co-evolution with the technology capability. And so, by the time you deliver it, the users will probably realize they should have asked for something different anyway. Ula Ojiaku: So, does this tie in with the pre-Scrum techniques you mentioned earlier? If so, can you articulate that? Dave Snowden: So, is to say different methods in different places. And that's again, my opposition to things like SAFe, to a lesser extent LeSS, and so on, right, is they try and put everything into one bloody big flow diagram. Yeah. And that's messy. All right? Well, it's a recipe, not a chef. What the chef does is they put different ingredients together in different combinations. So, there's modularity of knowledge, but it's not forced into a linear process. So, our work… and we just got an open space and open source and our methods deliberately, right, in terms of the way it works, is I can take Scrum, and I can reduce it to its lowest coherent components, like a sprint or retrospective. I can combine those components with components for another method. So, I can create Scrum as an assembly of components, I can take those components compared with other components. And that way, you get novelty. So, we're then developing components which sit before traditional stuff. Like for example, triple eight, right? This was an old DSDM method. So, you ran a JAD sessions and Scrum has forgotten about JAD. JAD is a really… joint application design… is a really good set of techniques - they're all outstanding. You throw users together with coders for two days, and you force out some prototypes. Yeah, that latching on its own would, would transform agile, bringing that back in spades, right? We did is we do an eight-hour JAD session say, in London, and we pass it on to a team in Mumbai. But we don't tell them what the users ask for. They just get the prototype. And they can do whatever they want with it for eight hours. And then they hand it over to a team in San Francisco, who can do whatever they want with it in eight hours. And it comes back. And every time I've run this, the user said, ‘God, I wouldn't have thought of that, can I please, have it?' So, what you're doing is a limited life cycle - you get the thing roughly defined, then you allow it to mutate without control, and then you look at the results and decide what you want to do. And that's an example of pre-scrum technique, that is a lot more economical than systems and analysts and user executives and storyboards. And all those sorts of things. Yeah. Ula Ojiaku: Well, I see what you mean, because it seems like the, you know, the JAD - the joint application design technique allows for emergent design, and you shift the decision making closer to the people who are at the forefront. And to an extent my understanding of, you know, Scrum … I mean, some agile frameworks - that's also what they promote… Dave Snowden: Oh, they don't really don't. alright. They picked up Design Thinking which is quite interesting at the moment. If you if you look at Agile and Design Thinking. They're both at the end of their life cycles. Ula Ojiaku: Why do you say that? Dave Snowden: Because they're being commodified. The way you know, something is coming to the end of its life cycle is when it becomes highly commodified. So, if you look at it, look at what they are doing the moment, the Double Diamond is now a series of courses with certificates. And I mean, Agile started with bloody certificates, which is why it's always been slightly diverse in the way it works. I mean, this idea that you go on a three-day course and get a certificate, you read some slides every year and pay some money and get another certificate is fundamentally corrupt. But most of the Agile business is built on it, right? I mean, I've got three sets of methods after my name. But they all came from yearlong or longer courses certified by university not from tearing apart a course. Yeah, or satisfying a peer group within a very narrow cultural or technical definition of competence. So, I think yeah, and you can see that with Design Thinking. So, it's expert ideation, expert ethnography. And it still falls into that way of doing things. Yeah. And you can see it, people that are obsessed with running workshops that they facilitate. And that's the problem. I mean, the work we're doing on citizen engagement is actually… has no bloody facilitators in it. As all the evidence is that the people who turn up are culturally biased about their representative based opinions. And the same is true if you want to look at unarticulated needs, you can't afford to have the systems analysts finding them because they see them from their perspective. And this is one of one science, right? You did not see what you do not expect to see. We know that, alright? So, you're not going to see outliers. And so, the minute you have an expert doing something, it's really good - where you know, the bounds of the expertise, cover all the possibilities, and it's really dangerous. Well, that's not the case. Ula Ojiaku: So, could you tell me a bit more about the unfacilitated sessions you mentioned earlier? Dave Snowden: They're definitely not sessions, so we didn't like what were triggers at moments. Ula Ojiaku: Okay. Dave Snowden: So, defining roles. So, for example, one of the things I would do and have done in IT, is put together, young, naive, recently graduated programmer with older experienced tester or software architect. So, somebody without any… Ula Ojiaku: Prejudice or pre-conceived idea... Dave Snowden: … preferably with a sort of grandparent age group between them as well. I call it, the grandparents syndrome - grandparents say things to their grandchildren they won't tell their children and vice versa. If you maximize the age gap, there's actually freer information flow because there's no threat in the process. And then we put together with users trained to talk to IT people. So, in a month's time, I'll publish that as a training course. So, training users to talk to IT people is more economical than trying to train IT people to understand users. Ula Ojiaku: To wrap up then, based on what you said, you know, about Cynefin, and you know, the wonderful ideas behind Cynefin. How can leaders in organizations in any organization apply these and in how they make sense of the world and, you know, take decisions? Dave Snowden: Well, if there's actually a sensible way forward now, so we've just published the field guide on managing complexity. Ula Ojiaku: Okay. Dave Snowden: And that is actually, it's a sort of ‘Chef's guide'. It has four stages: assess, adapt, exert, transcend, and within that it has things you could do. So, it's not a list of qualities, it's a list of practical things you should go and do tomorrow, and those things we're building at the moment with a lot of partners, because we won't try and control this; this needs to be open. Here's an assessment process that people will go through to decide where they are. So that's going to be available next week on our website. Ula Ojiaku: Oh, fantastic! Dave Snowden: For the initial registration. Other than that, and there's a whole body of stuff on how to use Cynefin. And as I said, we just open source on the methods. So, the Wiki is open source. These… from my point of view, we're now at the stage where the market is going to expand very quickly. And to be honest, I, you know, I've always said traditionally use cash waiver as an example of this. The reason that Agile scaled around Scrum is he didn't make it an elite activity, which XP was. I love the XP guys, but they can't communicate with ordinary mortals. Yeah. It takes you about 10 minutes to tune into the main point, and even you know the field, right. And he (Jeff Sutherland) made the Scrum Guide open source. And that way it's great, right. And I think that that's something which people just don't get strategic with. They, in early stages, you should keep things behind firewalls. When the market is ready to expand, you take the firewalls away fast. Because I mean, getting behind firewalls initially to maintain coherence so they don't get diluted too quickly, or what I call “hawks being made into pigeons”. Yeah. But the minute the market is starting to expand, that probably means you've defined it so you release the firewall so the ideas spread very quickly, and you accept the degree of diversity on it. So that's the reason we put the Wiki. Ula Ojiaku: Right. So, are there any books that you would recommend, for anyone who wants to learn more about what you've talked about so far. Dave Snowden: You would normally produce the theory book, then the field book, but we did it the other way around. So, Mary and I are working on three to five books, which will back up the Field Guide. Ula Ojiaku: Is it Mary Boone? Dave Snowden: Mary Boone. She knows how to write to the American managers, which I don't, right… without losing integrity. So that's coming, right. If you go onto the website, I've listed all the books I read. I don't think… there are some very, very good books around complexity, but they're deeply specialized, they're academic. Gerard's book is just absolutely brilliant but it's difficult to understand if you don't have a philosophy degree. And there are some awfully tripe books around complexity - nearly all of the popular books I've seen, I wouldn't recommend. Yeah. Small Groups of Complex Adaptive Systems is probably quite a good one that was published about 20 years ago. Yeah, but that we got a book list on the website. So, I would look at that. Ula Ojiaku: Okay. Thank you so much for that. Do you have any ask of the audience and how can they get to you? Dave Snowden: We've open-sourced the Wiki, you know, to create a critical mass, I was really pleased we have 200 people volunteered to help populate it. So, we get the all the methods in the field guide them. And they're actively working at that at the moment, right, and on a call with them later. And to be honest, I've done 18-hour days, the last two weeks, but 8 hours of each of those days has been talking to the methods with a group of people Academy 5, that's actually given me a lot of energy, because it's huge. So, get involved, I think it's the best way… you best understand complexity by getting the principles and then practicing it. And the key thing I'll leave us with is the metaphor. I mentioned it a few times - a recipe book user has a recipe, and they follow it. And if they don't have the right ingredients, and if they don't have the right equipment, they can't operate. Or they say it's not ‘true Agile'. A chef understands the theory of cooking and has got served in apprenticeship. So, their fingers know how to do things. And that's… we need… a downside.. more chefs, which is the combination of theory and practice. And the word empirical is hugely corrupted in the Agile movement. You know, basically saying, ‘this worked for me' or ‘it worked for me the last three times' is the most dangerous way of moving forward. Ula Ojiaku: Because things change and what worked yesterday might not work Dave Snowden: And you won't be aware of what worked or didn't work and so on. Ula Ojiaku: And there's some bias in that. Wouldn't you say? Dave Snowden: We've got an attentional blindness if you've got Ula Ojiaku: Great. And Dave, where can people find you? Are you on social media? Dave Snowden: Cognitive. Yeah, social media is @snowded. Yeah. LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. Two websites – the Cognitive Edge website, which is where I blog, and there's a new Cynefin Center website now, which is a not-for-profit arm. Ula Ojiaku: Okay. All these would be in the show notes. Thank you so much for your time, Dave. It's been a pleasure speaking with you. Dave Snowden: Okay. Thanks a lot.

Trump rilancia la guerra commerciale con nuove minacce di dazi su tech e semiconduttori, dopo un'apparente tregua. La Cina risponde bloccando l'export di terre rare e magneti critici per l'industria, introducendo un sistema di licenze ora sospese, con possibili impatti gravi su settori strategici come auto, aerospazio e difesa. Il commento è di Giuliano Noci - Professore ordinario in Ingegneria Economico-Gestionale, insegna Strategia & Marketing presso il Politecnico di Milano. Dal 2011 è Prorettore del Polo territoriale cinese dell'Ateneo milanese.In tempi di dazi Aponte investe sui portiGianluigi Aponte (Msc) è il principale investitore in un'operazione da 23 miliardi per acquistare 43 porti del gruppo CK Hutchison. L'accordo, ostacolato dalla Cina e sotto scrutinio a Panama, vede coinvolti anche BlackRock e GIC. TiL, la divisione di Aponte, gestirà quasi tutti i porti tranne due a Panama. L'operazione è geopoliticamente delicata, ma resta in fase di approvazione.

Antonio Forcellino"Dipingere il sogno"Il miracolo dell'arte italiana da Cimabue e CaravaggioHarper Collinswww.harpercollins.itEsistono periodi straordinari durante i quali, in un unico luogo e tempo, in un solo campo del sapere, si succedono e si affiancano così tanti uomini geniali da far gridare al miracolo. È il caso dei poeti tragici e lirici nella Grecia del quinto secolo avanti Cristo, dei filosofi tedeschi del Settecento e dell'Ottocento. E, ovviamente, dei pittori italiani del Rinascimento. In poco più di due secoli, una fioritura mai vista prima di talenti rivoluzionò la pittura, creando una nuova visione del mondo che suscita, ancora oggi, stupore, estasi, meraviglia. Antonio Forcellino, uno dei più grandi restauratori e storici dell'arte italiani, molti di questi capolavori li ha toccati con mano, restituendoli al pieno splendore, dialogando con loro attraverso un'acuta ricerca e una profondissima passione. Passione e ricerca che gli permettono di raccontare questa storia miracolosa, intessendo legami e influenze tra generazioni di artisti che sembrano appartenere a un'unica straordinaria famiglia.Per la prima volta la storia delle immagini diventa una storia di relazioni anche sentimentali tra i protagonisti della scena artistica italiana del Rinascimento. La storia comincia con Cimabue, indicato da Dante come l'iniziatore della pittura moderna, e si ferma a Caravaggio, scandaloso e geniale innovatore della visione, passando per i meravigliosi affreschi di Giotto ad Assisi, la potenza vitale di Masaccio e le geometrie sublimi di Piero della Francesca, confluite tutte nella grande e terribile pittura di Michelangelo. Dipingere il sogno è un libro appassionante e illuminante, che spiega e racconta l'arte moderna come mai è stato fatto prima."L'arte italiana tra Cimabue e Caravaggio si può leggere come una storia di famiglia. L'Italia è la casa comune abitata dagli artisti, un'immensa casa ideale dove vive una famiglia che di generazione in generazione, da un certo momento in poi, persegue un obiettivo comune: rappresentare al meglio la realtà e il sogno."Antonio ForcellinoTra i maggiori studiosi europei di arte rinascimentale, ha realizzato restauri di opere di grande valore, come il Mosè di Michelangelo e l'Arco di Traiano. La sua attenzione si rivolge da sempre a tutta la ricchezza del fare arte, ai contesti storici, alle tecniche e ai materiali, alle radici psicologiche e biografi che dei grandi capolavori. È stato eletto membro del Comitato per le celebrazioni dei 500 anni della morte di Leonardo da Vinci, promosso dal ministero dei Beni e delle Attività Culturali e del Turismo. Per HarperCollins ha pubblicato la trilogia di romanzi Il secolo dei giganti, dedicata ai grandi protagonisti dell'arte rinascimentale: Il cavallo di bronzo: l'avventura di Leonardo, Il colosso di marmo: l'ardore di Michelangelo e Il fermaglio di perla: la grazia di Raffaello.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Michelangelo Merisi, dit Caravaggio, est un peintre révolutionnaire du XVIIe siècle, dont l'art et la vie sont marqués par la passion et la violence. Né en 1571 à Milan, il connaît une enfance difficile, frappée par la peste et l'orphelinat. Après une formation à Milan, il part pour Rome, où son style unique, basé sur le clair-obscur, bouleverse l'art religieux. Soutenu par le cardinal Del Monte, il réalise des chefs-d'œuvre comme La Vocation de Saint Matthieu. Mais son tempérament impulsif et ses nombreuses altercations lui attirent des ennuis. En 1606, il tue un homme lors d'un duel et doit fuir, errant entre Naples, Malte et la Sicile. Malgré son talent, sa vie chaotique le conduit à une fin tragique en 1610, à seulement 38 ans. Aujourd'hui, il est reconnu comme l'un des plus grands maîtres de la peinture baroque.

I swear I am not making these this long on purpose! We are discussing art and history and poison and I just got too excited to leave anything out! We are discussing, in detail, toxic paints of the past and the artists that used them, including Vincent Van Gogh, Caravaggio and others. We also discuss a few famous musicians that may have been affected by lead poisoning. I may have gone pretty deep into the history of some of these artists, but they are fascinating. Vincent Van Gogh had many physical and mental ailments and they may very well have been exacerbated by the many toxic paints he was in contact with. Caravaggio had many an issue with anger and brawling and when researchers found and studied his bones, they were full of lead. Lead in wine may be why musicians such Handel and Beethoven lost their sight and hearing (respectively) and suffered other physical and mental ailments. We also go into more detail with dyes used in fashion as well as the mercurial process of hat making in the past. Deadly dresses (for many a reason), poisonous waistcoats, toxic wallpaper and toys. Let's not forget the uranium glazed kitchenware from the early-mid 1900s. Do we have any collectors here?I also made a promise to talk about epoxy and polyester resins so we do briefly discuss that as well. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

El programa de hoy arranca con 'The Sleeper. El Caravaggio desaparecido', un documental dirigido por Álvaro Longoria que cuenta la sorprendente historia de un cuadro subastado en la casa Ansorena de Madrid en abril de 2021. La obra fue catalogada como perteneciente al círculo de José de Ribera con un precio de salida de 1.500 euros. Sin embargo, en pocas horas, expertos en arte comenzaron a sospechar que se trataba de un Caravaggio auténtico. Ante el revuelo, el Museo del Prado elaboró un informe para evitar que la pintura saliera de España. El 6 de abril, la mayor experta mundial en Caravaggio confirmó su autenticidad y, al día siguiente, la obra fue declarada inexportable. Hablamos con el director del documental para conocer más detalles de esta fascinante historia.En la segunda parte del programa, Jesús Marchamalo nos invita a dar un paseo con Paco Roca, reconocido dibujante, creador de cómics como 'El abismo del olvido' o 'La casa'. En este recorrido, descubrimos más sobre su estilo, su inspiración y los temas que aborda en sus obras.Para terminar, exploramos una de las iniciativas culturales de RNE: el Premio de Poesía Joven. Este año, la obra ganadora será publicada y distribuida por la editorial Pre-Textos, con 25 ejemplares entregados al ganador. Un paso importante para dar visibilidad a las nuevas voces poéticas.Y nos vamos con la sesión musical de Leyre Guerrero, directora de NaNaNa de Radio 3. Escuchar audio

En av konsthistoriens stjärnor tar plats i Palazzo Barberini Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Caravaggio 2025 - så heter den stora utställningen som precis öppnat i Rom och som ger plats åt en av konsthistoriens stjärnor från Barocken. Caravaggio är en stjärna slår han fast.Caravaggio är en stjärna i Konsthistorien slår Palazzo Barberinis chef fast. Inte bara för att han revolutionerade måleriet utan också för att han var den första som målade det som var sant. Han skildrade verkligheten som den såg ut och de modeller han jobbade med hade en stark koppling till hans eget liv, säger Thomas Clement Salmon.24 målningar visas på Palazzo Barberini som en del av det pågående Jubelåret i Rom - och man får följa konstnären från genombrottet till de allt mörkare målningarna mot slutet hans liv. Med på utställningen är också ett par nyupptäckta målningar.
Crescenzo Notarile and Paris Chong discuss his work shooting nudes, with Paris acknowledging the potential for perversity and intrigue associated with the genre. Crescenzo emphasizes that all great artists start with nudes to study form, beauty, lines, and geometry, citing Picasso, Rembrandt, and Caravaggio as examples. He shares his own influences in nude photography, including Bill Brandt, Joel Peter Witkin, Helmut Newton, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Irving Penn. Crescenzo highlights the challenge of evoking emotion and avoiding cliché or vulgarity in nude photography, and mentions his own nude book and his use of infrared film to create a unique aesthetic. He also acknowledges the common observation that male photographers often shoot more female nudes than male nudes, offering reasons such as the perceived difference in beauty between the male and female form, as well as the difficulty in finding male models willing to pose nude.Show Clip from The Paris Chong Show with Crescenzo Notarilehttps://youtu.be/_vFzSFYdQLohttps://www.theparischongshow.com

Luigi De Pascalis"Il buio e le stelle"La Lepre Edizioniwww.lalepreedizioni.comAndrea Sarra nasce nel 1895 a Borgo San Rocco, immaginario paese d'Abruzzo all'ombra della Majella, e fa parte di una generazione che più di ogni altra vedrà cambiare il mondo. Quindici anni fa Luigi De Pascalis ha già narrato parte della sua storia, dall'infanzia alle trincee infernali della Grande Guerra, nel romanzo La pazzia di Dio, incastonato nella parte centrale di questo libro. Ora – con una scrittura poetica e insieme di raro, potente realismo – affida alla voce di Andrea il racconto del “prima”, l'epica corale e senza tempo di Borgo San Rocco, filtrato dai ricordi familiari, e di un “dopo” a Zanzibar, dove il protagonista approda alla ricerca della donna africana che suo padre Filippo ha amato più di ogni altra. Si delinea così un viaggio che coincide con la vita, in continuo moto ondivago tra passato e presente, denso di incontri che, ognuno a suo modo, si riveleranno decisivi. Come l'Ulisse omerico Andrea è al tempo stesso tutti e nessuno, sospinto da ogni lancio di dadi del destino verso un'Itaca che resta indelebile in lui, malgrado ogni sua fuga più o meno consapevole.Luigi De Pascalis ha pubblicato molti racconti di genere fantastico, vincendo diversi premi (Montepulciano, Courmayeur, Tolkien tra gli altri). È stato il primo scrittore italiano di narrativa fantastica a essere tradotto negli Stati Uniti, in un'antologia ormai storica del genere a cura di Sprague De Camp, ed è presente in molte antologie italiane. Con La Lepre Edizioni ha pubblicato anche, nel 2010, Rosso Velabro, Il labirinto dei Sarra, La pazzia di Dio; la graphic novel Pinocchio (2011, Premio Carlo Lorenzini); Il nido della Fenice (2012); Il mantello di porpora (2014, candidato al Premio Strega); Notturno bizantino (2016, candidato al Premio Strega e vincitore del Premio Acqui Storia); Volgograd (2018); Il signore delle furie danzanti (2020); Il cavaliere, la morte e il diavolo (2021). Tra i libri pubblicati con altre case editrici: La morte si muove nel buio (Mondadori 2013); Il sigillo di Caravaggio (2019), Il pittore maledetto (2020) e La congrega segreta (2022), tutti e tre con Newton Compton; Odissea futura (già finalista al premio Urania, Tabula Fati 2024). Con Delos Book, tra il 2014 e il 2023, ha pubblicato in e-book La cena di Dumas, Il collezionista di sogni, La Chanson d'Antiochie, Il vaso di Pandora.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

This week, Sara brings us the incomparable Italian painter Artemisia Gentileschi! She is considered one of the foremost painters of the 17th century, eclipsing her father's skill and considered more brazen than Caravaggio himself. Due to her own exceptional skill and brilliant business tactics, Artemisia's popularity exploded and she painted commissions for the most elite patrons across all of Europe, becoming so successful she didn't even "need a husband" anymore.
