In this week's Thursday Thought, we explore the crucial role of 'Helpful Cassandras'—individuals with heightened perceptions of change within business environments. Drawing on analogies from nature, quotes from visionaries like Warren Buffet and Andy Grove, and the concept of 'Umwelt' by Jakob von Uexküll, we discuss how different sensory frameworks shape our understanding of market shifts and disruptions. The episode highlights the importance of recognizing and supporting these perceptive individuals to stay ahead of crises and seize new opportunities. Don't miss out on the launch of The Reinvention Summit, featuring a workshop led by Rita McGrath on early warnings and trend detection. 00:00 Introduction: Focus on the Playing Field 00:30 The Role of Helpful Cassandras 00:46 Developing Organizational Antennas 01:53 Understanding Umwelt in Business 03:14 Rodents: Masters of Olfactory Perception 04:26 Economic Signals: Smelling the Sausage 06:45 The Cassandra Story: Andy Grove and the Helpful Cassandras 09:16 Embracing Early Warnings 10:51 Conclusion: Join The Reinvention Summit Article: Navigating Change: The Hidden Scents, Sausages and Trip Wires “Games are won by players who focus on the playing field - not by those whose eyes are glued to the scoreboard.” - Warren Buffet. Just as different species perceive their environments in unique ways, individuals within a business environment experience and interpret the world around them through their subjective lenses. Some of these individuals—like modern-day Cassandras—are particularly attuned to early signs of change or disruption, but their warnings are often ignored. Using the analogy of rodents' heightened sense of smell, we explore how these Helpful Cassandras can guide companies away from crisis or towards new opportunities.yet are frequently overlooked. Embracing their foresight is crucial to navigating an uncertain future. "The capacity of an organization to read its environment somewhere out there, which requires hiring some people whose sole job is to pay attention to the things that we're not paying attention to. If you think about any system, any [00:01:00] creature has only certain antennas. Which means that those antennas allow them to be in touch with this part of the world and not that part of the world. And they get in trouble when the world suddenly has something as a threat to them that they have no antennas for. So it's very important in an organization to develop the capacity here to have these kind of emergent antennas. And or to have at least parts of things that are paying attention to what people are not paying attention to, because, in most every case, when a crisis is coming, there are people who know nobody wants to listen to them because things are going well. And you certainly don't help your career by talking about them. So I think organizations, if they want to really be on the edge of things, have to build in as capacity here to surveil parts of environment. That it has not been paying very much attention to." - Stan Deetz, Innovation Show 559 Jakob von Uexküll was a pioneering biologist interested in how living beings perceive their environments. [00:02:00] He argued that organisms experience life through species-specific, subjective reference frames he called Umwelt (The German word for environment). Each species experiences the world through its own unique sensory lens. A tick, for instance, uses the smell of butyric acid to locate a mammalian host, while a star-nosed mole relies on touch to navigate underground. Despite sharing the same physical space, animals perceive their surroundings in vastly different ways. This idea of Umwelt applies not only to biology but also to how individuals in a business environment interpret signals of change. In the business world, we each operate with different sensory frameworks. Some colleagues are tuned into technological advances, others are adept at...
Hur bli vi lyckliga? En fråga säkert många ställer sig och som vi har en bild av hur vi borde bli lyckliga. Men stämmer det överens med verkligheten. Är det så att citatet från TV-serien Solsidan som lyder ungefär så här Man vill ju att sina barn ska bli lyckade Ja, eller lyckliga Absolut, om det går att kombinera . Är vi lyckliga när vi är lyckade eller är vi lyckade när vi är lyckliga. Författarare Cassandra Brunstedt har skrivit boken “Lyckomanualen - 11 steg till ett lyckligare liv” tillsammans med Theresia Fanklin. Det efter att Cassandra gjort en fantastisk karriärsresa inom media och trodde hon gjorde allt det hon drömt om. Istället hamnade hon i utmattning och sa upp sig. Efter en resa till Indien i två månader och tid att komma tillbaka landade hon och idag är hon författare på heltid. Lyckomanualen är en fantastiskt fin bok som visar att små saker gör stor skillnad. Cassandra och Theresia har intevjuat forskare och studerat lycka inför den här boken och helt klart att det är mycket vi själva kan göra för att finna lyckan. Jag är nyfiken på Cassandras resa i karriären om det varekligen var hon som ville göra den eller om hon omedvetet påverkats av vad andra vill och vad som gör en lyckad och framgångsrik. Hur hanterade hon sin utmattning och hur finner hon lyckan i dag. Cassandra delar också med sig av tips från boken om de små saker vi kan göra för att känna oss lite gladare.

I veckans avsnitt av ”Så in i Själen har jag bjudit in författaren Cassandra Brunstedt. Cassandra har gjort succé med romanerna ”En enkel till Indien” och ”Lyckliga gatan tur och retur”. Hon har också gett ut boken ”Lyckomanualen – 11 steg till ett lyckligare liv” tillsammans med Therésia Franklin. De var två rätt slitna och stressade småbarnsmammor som började fundera över livet och lycka. Det ledde till att de började plöja igenom forskningsrapporter och intervjua lyckoforskare och psykologer. De testat dessutom de allra senaste rönen inom ämnet i jakt på svaret: Hur gör man egentligen för att bli lycklig? Och varför är vi inte lyckliga när vi har det så bra? Det tänkte jag prata med Cassandra Brunstedt om i det här avsnittet av ”Så in i Själen”. Varmt välkomna.

What goes up, comes down. As the Dow continues to hover at 40,000, something is inevitably going to burst the Wall Street's current irrational exuberance. According to Andrew Lipstein, the biggest danger to today's stock market boom is the $15 trillion in global passive investing funds managed by companies like Vanguard. In this month's Harpers cover story, WHAT GOES UP, the Brooklyn based Lipstein talks to leading Cassandras warning us of the apocalyptic dangers of passive investing. Lipstein is the author of two wickedly entertaining novels and the writer brings a sparkling surrealism to the normally horribly boring business of identifying the next economic crash.Andrew Lipstein is a writer based in Brooklyn. His debut novel Last Resort was published in 2022 by Farrar, Straus & Giroux in the US, and Weidenfeld & Nicolson in the UK. His second novel The Vegan was published in July 2023, also by FSG and W&N. His third novel Something Rotten will be published in January 2025.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators. In addition to presenting KEEN ON, he is the host of the long-running How To Fix Democracy show. He is also the author of four prescient books about digital technology: CULT OF THE AMATEUR, DIGITAL VERTIGO, THE INTERNET IS NOT THE ANSWER and HOW TO FIX THE FUTURE. Andrew lives in San Francisco, is married to Cassandra Knight, Google's VP of Litigation & Discovery, and has two grown children. This is a public episode.

"Warnings: Finding Cassandras to Stop Catastrophes" is the story of the future of national security, threatening technologies, the U.S. economy, and possibly the fate of civilization. In Greek mythology Cassandra foresaw calamities, but was cursed by the gods to be ignored. Modern-day Cassandras clearly predicted the disasters of Katrina, Fukushima, the Great Recession, the rise of ISIS, the spread of viruses and many more. Like the mythological Cassandra, they were ignored. Listen to Michael's conversation with former government national security official Richard Clarke. Original air date 8 June 2017. The book was published on 23 May 2017.

Become a member today: www.Patreon.com/Gaslit Should we drop out of society and organize mass orgies given the state of the world? That and more are discussed in this week's bonus episode. This discussion was inspired by a question from our Patreon community and is an urgent argument for why Biden must declare a climate emergency, especially if he wants to boost his poll numbers. Gen Z is voting in larger numbers, running for office, building grassroots organizing machines, and they're demanding their elected leaders ensure a livable future. Biden will drive out the vote of an increasingly influential Gen Z by declaring a climate emergency, and at the same time energize a new generation of leaders to help strengthen and protect our democracy. It's not up to Gen Z to save us, but it is up to us to listen to Gen Z. Biden did just that by rolling back oil leases to protect pristine wilderness. Now it's time to hyper-speed a renewable energy revolution by declaring a climate emergency. The latest research by the Cassandras of the climate crisis like James Hansen, the former NASA scientist who testified to Congress in 1988 that we were headed towards collapse, warn that the heating of the planet is accelerating. Declaring a climate emergency is urgently needed national security and foreign policy. The sooner we achieve a post-oil world, the sooner we put gas station dictatorships like Russia and Iran out of business. China, another major producer, buys cheap oil from Russia, financing its genocide in Ukraine, while Iran provides killer drones slaughtering civilians. To defund these repressive mass-murdering regimes, expand the transition to renewable energy with executive emergency powers. The Department of Defense elevated climate change as a national security priority, because if we don't move faster the world will become ungovernable. The fascist far-right trying to overthrow our democracy is deeply embedded with Big Oil like the Koch political network, as discussed in our interviews with Anne Nelson, author of The Shadow Network, and historian Nancy MacLean, author of Democracy in Chains. Making fossil fuels obsolete defunds the shadowy backers of America's far-right threat, supported in a global fascist alliance by oil producer Russia. Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Vivek Ramaswamy, and other Kremlin mouthpieces are just the lobbyist puppets of the fossil fuel industry. Even if the Supreme Court were to strike down or curb efforts by Biden to unlock executive emergency powers for meaningful climate action, the court's far-right Republican majority would be met with backlash at the voting booth, as we saw in the 2022 midterms. A Roe v. Wade blue wave ensured Democrats kept the Senate and that Republicans only got a fragile majority in the House, defying historical trends of the president's party losing badly in midterm elections. People left, right, and center are terrorized by the reality of extreme fires, hazardous smoke, and killer super storms. The horrifying new normal of the climate emergency breaks through far-right disinformation machines like Fox News, with young Republicans demanding action on climate change and traditionally conservative farmers working with the federal government on climate crisis projects. The very real fears and destruction of the existential threat we all live with now is a unifying moment that a president must meet by declaring a climate emergency. Morally it's the right thing to do and long past time. Leadership at the top and at all levels of government must speed up the renewable energy revolution. Biden has led on uniting the democratic alliance against Russia, and bold leadership bringing us closer to a post-carbon world will defund Russia's war machine. And his re-election will be guaranteed if he energizes Gen Z's grassroots base by giving civilization a fighting chance. There's still time, but only if we unite against "feel good" pledges and demand bold executive action now. You can contact the White House by sharing this essay or your own arguments, and raise your voice on social media demanding a climate emergency. Contact your local reps in your state government, too. Local changes can trickle up. There's more info and ways to take action below from the Sunrise Movement: Millions of young people: @POTUS end fossil fuels Biden: *cancels all remaining oil and gas leases in the Arctic Refuge and protects 13 million acres in the Western Arctic* It's clear he's listening.

I det här avsnittet träffar vi Cassandra Brunstedt, som numera stolt kan titulera sig som författare.Under våren 2022 släppte Cassandra sin debutroman “En enkel till Indien” som beskrivits som härlig blandning av “Eat Pray Love” och “Djävulen bär Prada”. I boken får vi följa moderedaktören Ella Franks resa till Indien där hon checkar in på ett Arsham och hela hennes liv tar en ny riktning. “En enkel till Indien” blev finalist i Årets Feelgood samt nominerad till Adlibrispriset - en riktig succé helt enkelt! Kort därefter släppte Cassandra uppföljaren “Lyckliga Gatan tur och retur”.Jag har såklart läst båda böckerna och skrattat mig igenom sidorna samtidigt som de gav mig fina budskap om livet och döden. När jag hade läst ut hennes böcker om resan till Indien och alla tankar kring stress, karriär, döden, livet, kärleken till naturen och relationen till fyrklövern kunde jag inte låta bli att tänka:Speglar den här berättelsen Cassandras egna liv? Vi får lära känna Cassandra lite närmre och vi får ta del av hennes personliga resa. Från välbetalda fina jobbtitlar på några av Sveriges största Modemagasin och TV-produktioner med mycket stress och på gränsen till utbrändhet - till att våga följa drömmen och intuitionen som fick henne att skicka in bokmanuset kl 11:11 till just rätt förlag.Cassandra delar värdefulla insikter till oss med författar-drömmar, hon understryker vikten av att lyssna till sin inre röst och skriva på det sättet som man själv vill läsa. Jag ser så mycket fram emot att följa Cassandra och hennes levande romaner och spännande projekt - för JA! det kommer fler!Tack för att du lyssnar!

Cassandras - Prophecy by Only Metalcore
When firms apply the principles of Austrian economics to business management, we call the result the Adaptive Entrepreneurial Method. It's adaptive in that it is a continuous learning process, and it's entrepreneurial in elevating customer value realization as the most important business purpose. Key Takeaways and Actionable Insights. [[{"fid":"136508","view_mode":"image_no_caption","fields":{"format":"image_no_caption","alignment":"center","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_caption_text[und][0][value]":"","field_image_file_link[und][0][value]":""},"type":"media","field_deltas":{"1":{"format":"image_no_caption","alignment":"center","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_caption_text[und][0][value]":"","field_image_file_link[und][0][value]":""}},"attributes":{"alt":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","class":"media-element file-image-no-caption media-wysiwyg-align-center","data-delta":"1"}}]] Businesses that follow the adaptive entrepreneurial method put customer value first. Value in Austrian economics is customer value: contributing to customers' feelings of being better off as a result of the interaction with an entrepreneurial business or service provider. A useful way to think about value is in terms of alignment and order. A value exchange is a harmonious alignment between customer and entrepreneur, in which both parties benefit and both parties' interests are served. Order is represented by the customer's decision, a point of clarity in a world of multiple choices, overlapping preferences and broad-based uncertainty. Entrepreneurial businesses make value their purpose and identify it in alignment and harmony with customers. Everything else — cash flow, profits, growth — follows. Entrepreneurial orientation enables the right interpretation of data and information for customer value realization. Mark McGrath emphasizes the powerful role of entrepreneurial orientation in business success. Orientation is a mindset — a kind of internal operating system — that guides firms to translate information from customers, partners, competitors and the market into an effective, winning vision and mission. The essence of orientation is learning. Uncertainty is assumed, and orientation is the unique set of filters through which entrepreneurs and management teams process the quantitative and qualitative data that customers and markets present. Mises called it economic calculation: the entrepreneurial capacity for combining a constantly changing stream of information into a business decision. The decisions are always reviewable and revisable; a learning mindset makes entrepreneurs comfortable with frequent decision changes in response to changing information and feedback. Principles — such as the primacy of customer value — remain the same; it's actions that are adjusted. Businesses that don't learn can get locked into models that no longer reflect the realities of the marketplace, and lose their effectiveness. People, ideas, and things. Learning, adapting, and changing are difficult capabilities to master. Continuous change can feel disorienting absent the right mindset. How do companies achieve this mastery? Mark McGrath quotes Joh Boyd on the eternal verity of people, ideas, and things — always in that order. The first critical component are the people engaged in and operating the business. They must be good at change, comfortable with constant flux. They must accept VUCA — volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity — as the normal condition. At the same time, management must be conscious of how each new change or wave of change impacts people, and anticipates the effect it will have on them. In this change-accepting environment, unlimited new ideas can emerge via the creative process. They can be tested, and marketplace results become the yardstick. When new ideas look promising in terms of the results they potentially enable, then things can be changed: capital can be redeployed in new combinations, marketing campaigns can be revised. When people are pre-prepared, smooth transitions are achievable. Continuous Reorientation And Entrepreneurial Intent. While entrepreneurial orientation is the firm's operating system for processing information, it is not fixed. Adaptive firms are continuously reorienting, Active reorientation supports learning, recognizing that all perceptual models are only as good as the moment they were developed. They must be renewed to stay relevant. Challenging assumptions and reframing problems must be continuous in order for firms to thrive and use change to advantage. Effective orientation looks to the future rather than the present, emphasizing agility and avoiding clinging to outdated models. Reorientation precedes intent and reshapes it. Entrepreneurial intent can be equated to what systems thinkers call vision. A vision is shared and provides a North Star for everyone in the firm, but that doesn't preclude adjustment in continuous alignment with customers. The vision is to serve customers, and customers are also changing and adjusting. Thinking in terms of intent (rather than, say, implementing a rigid plan) permits greater flexibility in pursuit of the vision. Entrepreneurial judgment is decision and action. The theory of entrepreneurship emphasizes judgment — that mysterious-sounding capability of entrepreneurs to make economic calculations from a mix of data and intuition. That can sound like a kind of mulling over of options. But it's much more active than that. The entrepreneurial method emphasizes deciding and acting. Decisions are recognized as hypotheses; it's impossible to know exactly what to do, so action-oriented develop hypotheses about what actions could have the effect they desire. The hypotheses are carefully aligned with their intent in order to double-check the logic as far as possible. But the purpose is not to be “right” but to generate feedback information so that alignment can be better informed by reality. Action — the implementation of decisions — is an experiment, a test of the hypothesis. Action produces interaction (with customers, with retailers, with competitors, with the changing market environment) and thereby provides new information in the form of feedback, which might indicate the need to change actions next time. The number of hypotheses and tests can be narrowed; what's important is that they reflect as wide a range of perspectives as possible — from those at the front line interacting with customers, whether in person or at the call center or online, from engineers and operatives, from finance and HR, and from all relevant points of view. The more diverse the range of perspectives, the more likely it is that different angles of view will provide new insights and illuminate blind spots. Make sure that internal communications are organized so as to make it possible for all perspectives — including dissenting Cassandras - to be recognized and acknowledged. Candid self-assessment of people in business leadership roles is a good place to start the adaptive entrepreneurial journey. Some elements of the adaptive entrepreneurial model require the discarding of standard ways of managing. For example, many businesses spend considerable time and effort developing plans that lock in budgets and resource allocations, and don't make allowance for constant adjustment and change. It's useful to take inventory of these practices and question whether they can be abandoned or reformed in pursuit of agility.

When firms apply the principles of Austrian economics to business management, we call the result the Adaptive Entrepreneurial Method. It's adaptive in that it is a continuous learning process, and it's entrepreneurial in elevating customer value realization as the most important business purpose. Key Takeaways and Actionable Insights. [[{"fid":"136508","view_mode":"image_no_caption","fields":{"format":"image_no_caption","alignment":"center","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_caption_text[und][0][value]":"","field_image_file_link[und][0][value]":""},"type":"media","field_deltas":{"1":{"format":"image_no_caption","alignment":"center","field_file_image_alt_text[und][0][value]":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","field_file_image_title_text[und][0][value]":false,"field_caption_text[und][0][value]":"","field_image_file_link[und][0][value]":""}},"attributes":{"alt":"The Adaptive Entrepreneurial Business Method","class":"media-element file-image-no-caption media-wysiwyg-align-center","data-delta":"1"}}]] Businesses that follow the adaptive entrepreneurial method put customer value first. Value in Austrian economics is customer value: contributing to customers' feelings of being better off as a result of the interaction with an entrepreneurial business or service provider. A useful way to think about value is in terms of alignment and order. A value exchange is a harmonious alignment between customer and entrepreneur, in which both parties benefit and both parties' interests are served. Order is represented by the customer's decision, a point of clarity in a world of multiple choices, overlapping preferences and broad-based uncertainty. Entrepreneurial businesses make value their purpose and identify it in alignment and harmony with customers. Everything else — cash flow, profits, growth — follows. Entrepreneurial orientation enables the right interpretation of data and information for customer value realization. Mark McGrath emphasizes the powerful role of entrepreneurial orientation in business success. Orientation is a mindset — a kind of internal operating system — that guides firms to translate information from customers, partners, competitors and the market into an effective, winning vision and mission. The essence of orientation is learning. Uncertainty is assumed, and orientation is the unique set of filters through which entrepreneurs and management teams process the quantitative and qualitative data that customers and markets present. Mises called it economic calculation: the entrepreneurial capacity for combining a constantly changing stream of information into a business decision. The decisions are always reviewable and revisable; a learning mindset makes entrepreneurs comfortable with frequent decision changes in response to changing information and feedback. Principles — such as the primacy of customer value — remain the same; it's actions that are adjusted. Businesses that don't learn can get locked into models that no longer reflect the realities of the marketplace, and lose their effectiveness. People, ideas, and things. Learning, adapting, and changing are difficult capabilities to master. Continuous change can feel disorienting absent the right mindset. How do companies achieve this mastery? Mark McGrath quotes Joh Boyd on the eternal verity of people, ideas, and things — always in that order. The first critical component are the people engaged in and operating the business. They must be good at change, comfortable with constant flux. They must accept VUCA — volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity — as the normal condition. At the same time, management must be conscious of how each new change or wave of change impacts people, and anticipates the effect it will have on them.

Cassandra was a Trojan priestess whose warnings to the Trojans of looming disaster were both true and ignored, Ever since a Cassandra is one who warns of a coming catastrophe that inevitably happens even as it is dismissed at the time.

At the end of every month, Emily Jashinsky and Inez Stepman run through a docket of the past several weeks of news and analysis. This month, they discuss how the right should respond to the raid at Mar-A-Lago and the potential prosecution of political opposition, the rage the direct class politics of student loan bailouts has stirred up, and whether older millennial victims of the mainstreamed sexual revolution will become Cassandras for the next generation, or drag them down the same path. Plus: Inez warns Emily about the dangers of consorting with Tankies, and the ladies chat about whether the post-religious sexual market the left has begged for has instead built a playground for guys like Andrew Tate. --High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

Three high ranking American financial officials tried to warn the world about the 2008 financial collapse. But they were ignored, in large part because of who they were: women. On this episode we're looking at the stories of a few of the many women like them whose contributions, insights and discoveries have been overlooked, undercut or highjacked.

Als der Mann, den sie liebt, sie enttäuscht, sieht sie nur einen Ausweg … Die mitreißende Regency Romance-Reihe um die Cousinen von Pemberley beginnt
Boris is gone! Well sort of! Who's going to take his place and what will the market think? Find out that and more in this weeks Playing FTSE podcast Just Paul and Steve D this week as Steve W is on daddy duties! With plenty of news to discuss the boys start with the football, we're at the start of the Women's Euros and just 132 days away from the winter world cup in Qatar - are there any stocks that would benefit from this period? Steve D thinks he has one. They move onto the next Tory leader - both agree its a pretty uninspiring list, they drill it down to three but neither has a dog in the fight...do you have a favourite? Can you have a favourite Tory? Then we're onto Burry - both are unsure of Cassandras motivations and why he's so vocal about what he sees. Paul thinks we could have found a bottom, Steve doesn't care either way. And lastly we're onto the labour market, figures looked pretty positive and not indicative, at least traditionally, of a recession yet. It's still super tight though with 2 jobs for every 1 unemployed person - Steve tries to explain why this is disinflationary.
Vi bad er att grilla oss, fråga ut oss, ställa oss mot väggen helt enkelt! Det blir svar om Cassandras barnplaner, det mest olagliga Elsa gjort, Nadia får frågor om sin tidigare ätstörning.

Vi talar om Cassandras enkla lilla kalas i helgen med de tre blygsamma outfitbytena! Succékväll som tyvärr slutade med bultande kemisk ångest 6 på morgonen för Nadia. Och så delar Cass sårbart och öppet med sig om sin situationship som nu är över. Smärtan när man måste acceptera att det man målat upp och delat inte varit på riktigt och att man nu måste gå vidare.

Cassandras skärmtid har ökat markant senaste veckan. Vi delar med oss av vår statistik som är rätt äcklig, hur mycket tid som läggs på instagram och hur vi förhåller oss till den ständiga diskussionen kring att planera in skärmfri tid. Elsa har skolat in Yahya på förskolan de senaste veckorna och undrar: är hon en sämre mamma för att hon inte får dåligt samvete när hon lämnar honom skrikgråtandes där? Nadia har insett att det här med att leva tillsammans inte är så jävla dumt. Vi pratar om att leva i kollektiv med vänner och hur härligt det kanske faktiskt är.

Join in as we talk about my experience at Eatn Loud cannabis infused dinner. Also we talk about Cassandras recent trip to Atlanta.
Cassandra har haft riktig ångest inför sin födelsedag och inte tänkt fira alls. Det går inte Nadia och Elsa med på och styr därför upp ett otroligt fir i podden! Det blir hälsningar, roasts och livesång och massa massa kärlek! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Comedian Joe Castle Baker and the Cassandras embark on their content-creating journey, discussing Lil Nas X riding down the shaft of a vaccine needle, Joe getting followed by Alison Roman, how duck fat is the Of Montreal of gastronomy, Joe's secret twin sister, the fake joy of the Bon Appétit test kitchen, the Eriksonian identity formation of mean children on TikTok, Joe’s most bizarre Cameo request, what made him unfollow Nikocado Avocado, the gay and violent video game he’d design with his boyfriend, his fake true crime podcast, his event series Get Reel, and his Cassandra prediction.
Its the final ever episode of Only Fools and Horses. In classic fashion the Trotters are in desperate need of money and try to avoid eviction from Nelson Mandela House. Cassandras due date is drawing ever closer and Marlene has mysteriously disappeared. This week we discuss the many ingredients that make Only Fools so unique and brilliant. We are also left genuinely surprised by this fantastic and appropriate finale to an incredible journey.
Were you silent or were you silenced? We join the dethroned royals to lend our voices to the voiceless, abandoning a viewing of Silence (2016) to instead roll with the LGBT, and call people gay in the pejorative sense. Starring gay shows du jour: It’s a Sin and La Veneno. Also gay enough for discussion are the Vulture profile of Gay Icon Trisha Paytas and Coco Klockner’s essay "Main Character Energy" for Real Life Mag. Questions: Does Meghan Markle have main character syndrome? Would you rather cancel Eminem or Dr. Seuss? Should you self-punish by flogging yourself or by watching the Golden Globes? Were the Cassandras duped by Brad Tromel’s Hunter Biden deepfake? Are Rolling Ray and his bf the new Romeo and Juliet? Should you stop watching Drag Race? Is Gayle King holding her tongue on Good Morning America? Are Meg and Harry friends with Jeffrey Epstein like their brother? Is Jon Ossoff a more workshopped Pete Buttigieg? Did Scorsese direct Pirates of the Caribbean? Is Lauren Servideo a future friend of the pod? Will the more annoying Cassandra continue to bring up Ella Emhoff? Is Trisha Paytas hot-girl-with-BPD representation? What is Amy Sedaris on about? Should you live in Yollywood or Bollywood? Is Divorce Court a part of the Tyler Perry Industrial Complex? Which Veneno would the Cassandras get a drink with? Was AIDS a government hoax? Can Americans be funny? Should we call our fans Cafandras?
Thirty minutes of estate-porn foreplay preclude what the Cassandras call “a real-life yuppie New York soap opera” and “salacious tabloid fodder with a veneer of respectability.” As per Grace Fraser’s city escape in The Undoing: is there a state more HBO than Connecticut? Also: Should you donate 10 dollars to Film Forum? Is Beta O Rourke the biggest Beta in Texas? Is Tulum in Cancun? What are Daft Punk’s pronouns? Is Mamma Mia better than Ratatouille The Musical? Is Elliot with 2 T’s the winner of Rupaul’s Drag Race? Should the Girls HBO reunion be in Abu Dhabi? Is the Fake Famous director a charmless opportunist? Is Jenna Lyons permitted any non sequiturs? When Naomi Fry writes about something will we watch it? Should TFW No GF cancel Letterboxd? What do incels and influencers have in common? Are Goodreads reviewers adult Disney fans? Who will pull Simone Weil out of the void of suburbanization? Is the Adam Curtis doc Little Britain for smart people? Which Fred Armisen character is Josh Harris? Are Ion Pack or Red Scare the superior interviewers? Was anything besides Chloe Fineman good in the Christian Cowan show? Is Joe Castle Baker joining the cast of SNL? Are zoomer models indebted to Trisha Paytas? Is Cruella in the same cinematic universe as La La Land? Can Cassandra talk herself to death? (Part 1 of 2; in Part 2 we review Nomadland.)
Join in as we dive into the conversation of the Cecil hotel. You don't want to miss the Tarot card reading by Cassandra the great!!!
What is a “Strategic Surprise?”Catastrophic world events can send even the most successful businesses into a death spiral. If you haven’t anticipated or prepared for the “unforeseeable” (i.e. COVID 9/11, market crash, etc.), you could end up watching your life’s work go down in flames. We’ve seen with COVID over the past few months that this is happening on a massive, worldwide scale. ✔️So what can we learn from the ‘Cassandras’ of the world? These are people who notice patterns, who can anticipate outcomes and help us better prepare for and deal with chaos when it arises. ✔️Can we learn how to anticipate surprises?✔️And can we learn to see present patterns more clearly, to help us make better decisions right now?Join us with special guest Milo Jones, the co-author of Constructing Cassandra: Reframing Intelligence Failure at the CIA, 1947-2001. He is a cyber security expert, strategist and analyst, and he will lead our discussion and give us keys to becoming more adaptable during strategic surprises.
Den unge kvinde Cassandra tilbringer sine weekender med at sætte klamme mænd på plads, ved at lade som om hun er fuld og lade sig samle op på diverse barer. Men hvorfor gør hun det? Ikke overraskende er der en helt konkret grund til Cassandras mission. Hendes fortid gemmer på en mørk hemmelighed, der langsomt bliver afsløret. http://www.ikassenshow.dk/2021/02/i-kassen-718-promising-young-woman-2020.html
Oh no! I forgot to upload last night! So sorry. Very busy moving. Road rage confessions and Cassandras.
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 28, 2020 is: Cassandra kuh-SAN-druh noun 1 : a daughter of Priam endowed with the gift of prophecy but fated never to be believed 2 : one that predicts misfortune or disaster Examples: "They have rented a huge, nearly empty 'furnished' house online and it is here that the story begins to focus. Here, in a remote location everyone's nightmares get worse. The villagers … are Cassandras, implicitly warning of impending doom." — Stephen Schaefer, The Boston Herald, 19 June 2020 "My pandemic pantry is full. I come from a long line of Cassandras, and I have a keen (some would say unhealthy) interest in virology, so I've been prepping assiduously since mid-January. I've been cooking for myself and enjoying it in self-isolation because it's something I didn't get to do much in my former life as a restaurant critic." — Alison Cook, The Houston Chronicle, 27 Mar. 2020 Did you know? The story of Cassandra comes from Greek mythology and is both tragic and ironic, as such myths tend to be. Cassandra was the daughter of Priam, the king of Troy. She caught the eye of the god Apollo, who was accustomed to getting what he wanted. He was amazed and displeased when she refused his romantic advances, and he became vengeful. He cursed Cassandra with a gift of prophecy with an especially cruel twist: he guaranteed that while she would always be right, no one would ever believe her predictions. Cassandra foretold the fall of Troy and other disastrous happenings, though she was ignored. Now, the label Cassandra is typically reserved for those who claim to see impending doom.
Äntligen är avsnittet med Cassandra Klatzkow här, som ni har väntat! Underbara tider när vi snackar om olika system man har för att bajsa. Till exempel kommer det fram att Cassandra antagligen är världens renligaste person som använder små handdukar för att torka sig med. En inspiration för oss alla. Helene har varit med om en "bajs på stan" vecka och upplevt minst sagt otroliga saker, eller vad säger ni om en kvinna som håller sin egen bajskorv som en chorizo? Vi är även down with the kids och pratar om denna OTroliga tiktok-trend där föräldrar lurar sina barn att de fått bajs på sig. Cassandras städmani tar över och hon brukar ibland städa offentliga toaletter och vänners toaletter (Lovisa hoppas innerligt att hon och Cassandra är kompisar efter den här episoden). Framför allt berättar Cassandra så bra och HJÄRTSKÄRANDE bajshistorier från sitt eget liv. NEJ MEN det är så mycket bra content i detta avsnitt, in med er.

Xiaoshi Vivian Vivian Qins er født i 1989 og arbejder med base i Guangzhou og New York. Hendes værk har titlen Breath by Breath og gør brug af en række lydoptagelser der alle er optaget i hendes “social distancing”-periode, som hun betegner det. En periode, der varede fra midt i januar til for ca. en uge siden.Xiaoshi Vivian Vivian Qin forklarer nedenfor nogle tanker om værket og optagelserne – og linker til yderligere information og nyhedsoptagleser: All the sounds in the work were recorded during my social distancing period starting 20 January 2020 and appear chronologically in the finished work. The piece is in three parts: Siren Told You So (again) The work starts with the sounds of fireworks and firecrackers recorded at 0:00 and onward during the Chinese New Year this year. I just found it really memorable so I filmed it and the sounds come from the video clips. The New Year this year was so unusual since everyone stayed at home. Fireworks were fired in people's balconies, dropped into the empty streets and from people's rooftops in the distant village shooting into the sky. Then comes the sounds of whistling recorded on the second day of Li Wenliang's passing. The fireworks bloomed in the background as people who know the truth try to warn other people. There are two kinds of people here, the whistleblowers and the Cassandras. The whistleblowers are silenced, and the Cassandras, just like the greek goddess who is blessed with the ability to foresee the future but can never convince anyone of the incoming danger, they are dangerously ignored. I see this again and again as the virus spread and events unfolded globally. There are a lot of Cassandras. People with the truth have no power, and the people who have the power betrayed the truth. Siren Told You So is also the name of a piece I made in collaboration with Hera Chan for an exhibition at Savvy Contemporary, Berlin in 2019. It was a monument of lost marginalized voices warning people about the doomed future. Bridge I wanted to make a chant about surviving. This part is inspired by a survival story of a mother and a daughter and is made of recordings of muted gong sounds made with kitchenware. During the most dreadful days in Wuhan, a woman banged a pot on her balcony crying for help for her dying mother. They were saved later. (news and footage in Chinese). Virus Ecology This part consisted of recordings from the Khan Academy Biology class about the virus and how ancient retroviruses are incorporated in our DNA. We are not viruses, but 5%-8% of our genomes come from ancient viruses. After this, the sound of the newly-grown-into-forms frogs emerge. How do we live with this new reality? The ending is a song referring back to the first part about the fireworks and warning. 焰火昼夜赶路 Firework is on a rush 焰火声嘶力竭 Firework is yelling 焰火急行有要事告知 Firework ran with an important notice 早上的人以为是落花 People of the morning think it’s fallen flowers 夜里的人以为是流火 People of the night think it’s a fallen star 中午的人吞下一颗 People of the noon ate it and think it’s not much 没有什么没有什么没有什么 ··············· Serien Isolationskunst er en særudgave af Podcast for Samtidskunst. Vi har inviteret kunstnere til at skabe nye lydværker, der adresserer situationen, hvor corona-virussen spreder sig rundt om kloden og isolerer folk i deres hjem.
On this weeks episode we will be discussing one question from "The Society"....who REALLY killed Cassandra? I have a few options and I really want us to think about it! My prediction for Season 2 of "The Society" is that Cassandras murder will come back up. And we'll find out what really happened. Next week we will be talking about "On My Block" which is another Netflix Original Series, so make sure to tune in. *also, I said in this podcast episode that season 3 of "On My Block" dropped TODAY. It wasn't today, it dropped Wednesday, which was the day I recorded this podcast. Just wanted to be clear!* I hope you enjoy this episode and tune in next week! Thank you!
Cassandra från podden ”Det skaver” har en tydlig plan. Om hon inte träffar någon inom en snar framtid ska hon 2021 försöka bli gravid på egen hand. Vi pratar om att ha relationer med personer som inte har relationer med oss, om anknytningsteorin och om att fundera på idén att bli mamma på egen hand. Hur väljer man donator? Eller hur accepterar man att läkaren välja? Vad är skillnaden mellan än pappa och en donator? Hur förklarar man det? Hur påverkar Cassandras endometrios hennes fertilitet? Hur tacklar hon att hon har för högt BMI? Cassandra har också frågor till Cilla så blir fin upprepning av delar av Cillas historia. Ett avsnitt för alla som står inför att inleda en behandling och vill bli inspirerade och peppade.Kram See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Cassandra Wade finds herself in the center of a spiritual whirlwind when she learns that her loving mother has been diagnosed with a life-threatening disease. This horrific news leaves Cassandra in disbelief, as she is forced to confront her emotions and even questions her faithfulness to God in this roller coaster of events that was sparked by unforeseen information. Will she stand brave when faced with the unknown? Or will she collapse under pressure from her siblings, child, and other family members? All of Cassandras aspirations in life are about to be in jeopardy and put to the test if she cant keep her life from spinning out of control. Join me as I talk to Cassandra about this experience.
In the early 2000s, a handful of experts warned that the world was sleep-walking towards a financial crisis. Among them were South-African born political economist Ann Pettifor and the IMF's chief economist at the time, Raghu Rajan. But their warnings were ignored, and instead in 2008 the world plunged into the worst financial crash since the Great Depression, whose shadow still hangs over our politics. Louise Hidalgo has been talking to the Cassandras of the crash.

"'Warnings: Finding Cassandras To Stop Catastrophes’ by Richard Clarke and R.P. Eddy is an important book for many sectors and fields of study…Cassandra [is] a Greek myth of a prophet whose dogged warnings are ignored. The book is split between analyzing past events where the dismissed Cassandras accurately predicted catastrophes, and current possible Cassandras around issues such as climate change, pandemic disease, AI and astroids.” – Dale Peterson, Medium. In this installment of “Leonard Lopate at Large” on WBAI, Leonard discusses “Warnings” with Richard Clarke, along with the author’s career working for Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush as a counterterrorism expert on the National Security Council.
Ten years ago, the world watched as the biggest financial meltdown in history unfolded. The crash plunged the world into recession, lost millions of families their homes and its shadow still hangs over our politics today. And when the Queen went to the London School of Economics, she asked the question everyone wanted the answer to: why did no one see it coming? Aditya Chakrabortty, senior economics commentator at the Guardian newspaper, chairs a discussion between four economists who can claim they did.

Denna pod spelades in live på plats under Way Out West 2017. Vi gästas av Cassandra och snackar festivalminnen som nakna män och svettiga tält. Och om Cassandras och Brad Pitts sätt imitera deras partners. Sen snackar vi om den beryktade Biologiska Klockan. Cassandra säger att hon fysiskt känner viljan att skaffa barn. Men kan biologi även spela in i the dating game? Vi pratar särartsfeminism, Tom Cruise i "Vanilla Sky" och att ligga utan känslor. Sen tar vi upp en lyssnarfråga gällande att lägga upp "nått kul" på insta som råkar hänga ut en person. Vad bör man censurera? Hur känns det när ens selfie blir en meme? Och är Cassandra en "professionell offerkofta"? Det här plus Peters story om en spindel i hans chinos! Tack till alla som kom och kollade på oss!!!

HOW TO DISCOVER THE SECRETS IN LIFE The best things in life are born from coincidence. I am a firm believer in this. A year ago I was flying back from California. I started talking to the guy sitting next to me. Turns out he had worked in almost every branch of government related to intelligence and diplomacy. Now he runs his own private intelligence company. He has information about every government in the world. He is paid a lot of money to reveal and analyze that information. But when we were on the plane, for basically four or five hours I asked him everything I could and got the most incredible detail about the state of affairs in the world. I'm almost afraid to reveal what we spoke about on the plane. Everything from "how to catch a liar" to "What is the Nigerian government specifically doing about oil prices" to "Will Trump win?" (and his answer turned out to be stunningly accurate). Then...a lost touch with him. He was just a guy I sat next to on the plane for a few hours. We got off and went to live our separate lives. Until now. His new book is out: "Warnings" written with uber-diplomat Richard Clarke. What is he warning about? Everything. Where are the hidden potential catastrophes around the world. And how can we live with them. And how can we avoid them. And how can we figure out the warnings after these? He answers, he analyzes, he proves, and he does it from his 30 years of experience uncovering these things for the US government and now, through his company, for other governments and large institutions that can afford him. The key is: "that can afford him". Because now he comes on the podcast and just like the coincidence of meeting him a year ago, he answers all of my questions again about his book. About the "Warnings". I love when coincidence intersects real life. I saw his book, remembered him from our interaction, and we had the best time on the podcast. Read the book, listen to the podcast, and don't ignore the coincidences in your life. (But he is.) R.P. Eddy is the CEO or Ergo, one of the greatest super intelligent firms in the world. Governments hire him and his firm to spy on other governments. "Hopefully, I wasn't too indiscreet," he said, referring to the time on his plane. I told him not to worry. "If you're not arrested by the end of this podcast, then you're okay." In his book, "Warnings: Finding Cassandras to Stop Catastrophes," R.P. covers all the major world catastrophes that could've been predicted and prevented: 9/11, Madoff, Fukushima, the financial crisis, AIDS, climate change. If we can learn to predict these, or at least learn how to figure out how the correct experts are, then a lot of pain can be avoided. Experts warned us. But no one listened to them. R.P. calls these people "Cassandras." The name comes from greek mythology. Apollo (a god) wanted to sleep with Cassandra. She refused. So Apollo cursed her. "She could foretell any future disaster. She could see it in vivid color," R.P said. But the curse was that no one believed her. So she burned to death in a terrible attack. (An attack she knew was coming...) These people exist in real life. And R.P. wants us to notice them. So R.P, and his coauthor, Richard Clarke, started "The Annual Cassandra Award." They're giving away cash prizes (up to $10,000) to motivate people to find and nominate a true "Cassandras." This is the formula for spotting a "Cassandra..." How to detect a truth-teller (listen at [55:25]) The "Cassandras" featured in R.P's book are experts in their field. They have been for years. He told me about Laurie Garrett, the head of global health for the Council of Foreign Relations. She's the first person to ever win the Polk, the Pulitzer and the Peabody. "She foresaw the rise of HIV/AIDS when she was a radio reporter in San Francisco," R.P. said. "She saw these men dying of a disease called 'gay related immune deficiency,'...

They have been for years. He told me about Laurie Garrett, the head of global health for the Council of Foreign Relations. She’s the first person to ever win the Polk, the Pulitzer and the Peabody. “She foresaw the rise of HIV/AIDS when she was a radio reporter in San Francisco,” R.P. said. “She saw these men dying of a disease called ‘gay related immune deficiency,’ ‘GRID,’ or ‘gay cancer.’ They didn’t know what it was. Gay men didn’t think they had a transmissible disease. They thought they were sharing a cancer somehow, but just by looking at them and seeing the Kaposi sarcoma on their face, Laurie Garrett knew this was a contagious illness and started getting the media to pay attention.” This was during the time of Ryan White. He was a young, poor high school student dying of HIV caused by a blood transfusion. He was banned from school. People shot at his house. “Noted politicians called for gay people to be put in camps,” R.P. said. But Laurie could see how the pandemic was unfolding. And she came up with a plan for health care and surveillance networks to prevent the disease’s spread. The issue is that a lot of “Cassandras” are ignored. Because sometimes warnings are wrong… so how do you tell the difference between a “chicken little" and a “Cassandra.” “Cassandras” are data driven. “Everybody in our book who was right was a proven, technical expert on the topic they were speaking about,” R.P. said. “They are questioners by personality.” They ask hard questions and doubt what most believe. They have an off-putting personality (not always, but it’s common). They have a sense of personal responsibility. “When they walk into a restaurant and the fire alarm goes off, they’re the one who says to everybody, ‘Let’s get out of here,” R.P. Said. “These guys think of themselves as sheepdogs. Some people think of themselves as sheep (they probably don’t realize they’re sheep) and then we all know there are wolves out there. Sheepdogs, to some extent, think it’s their job to protect us.” They have high anxiety. “Let’s go back to our fire alarm example. These are the guys who look for the fire exits when they walk in. They’re the people who pull the fire alarm when they smell smoke. And when you think about personalities, a lot of people don’t do that.” Why we continue to let real threats slip by us: I asked R.P. why these people, “the Cassandras,” are ignored. Why aren't we trying harder to prevent terrible things from happening? “It comes down to our human biases,” he said. We pick sides. If we think someone is off-putting, we doubt them. If they confuse us (meaning they’re data goes over our head), we move on. And miss the warning. The same is true for our ideologies and belief systems. We’re quick to deny people who think differently. Madoff’s ponzi scheme is a perfect example. R.P. interviewed Harry Markopolos, a financial fraud investigator. “He knew within 45 seconds of understanding Madoff’s “hedge-fund” that it was a ponzi scheme,” R.P said. But the SEC didn’t listen to Harry’s warning because of his personality. They thought he was obnoxious. Even though he had hard evidence: Madoff claimed to trade 60 billion dollars worth of options. But that many options didn’t even exist in market. The math proves Harry right. Humans fail by emotions. I don’t know if there’s a solution. Maybe we have to unlearn. Maybe we have to judge our judgements. And ask more questions. Curiosity is a new world. And isn’t that what we want after all? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

R.P. Eddy is an American businessman, venture investor, former U.S. government official and former U.N. diplomat. He is currently the CEO of Ergo, a strategy and geo political intelligence firm. R.P. is also co-author of “Warnings: Finding Cassandras to Stop Catastrophes.” How did Fukushima happen? There were lots of Cassandras who knew there were issues. There were warnings thousands of years old, along with experts telling officials not to build the nuclear plant so low. Hurricane Katrina in the United States is another example where there were Cassandras who had the foresight to fix potential disaster, but were ignored. What would have happened if there was foresight to Saddam Hussein and the Kuwait invasion? A man named Charlie Allen had that foresight but was pushed aside. With such credible people having undeniable evidence being ignored, this brings up the question: How does a dynamic change in government happen? It doesn’t. R.P. did a study finding that 1% of the public think for themselves to make informed decisions. As people turn on the T.V. or surf the internet they find biased information. It’s hard to sit down, find unbiased information and make opinions of their own. When we have Cassandras who come out with real data and information to make changes that can save thousands, it is hard to decipher if they are chicken little or the real thing. R.P. profiled in depth Cassandras ranging from: Fukushima, Katrina, Madoff, 2008 collapse, the rise of Isis, and the invasion of Kuwait. In every instance the Cassandra went to the decision makers and asked the question, “Why are you ignoring all the data?!” The more outlandish the warning, the easier it is to be ignored. People who understand what is wrong with our brains, the ones who doubt themselves and double check data are the traders and leaders who thrive. Michael and R.P. end discussing nuclear weapons theory, North Korea, potential Cassandras, India vs. Pakistan, and why we should all stop and reassess the information that is fed us.

Denna vecka pratar vi självklart om förra veckans terrorattack i Stockholm då en lastbil vansinneskörde ned för Drottninggatan. Vi pratar om felaktiga nyheter som spreds, myndigheternas ingripande och om att skrika "Allahu akbar" framför polisen. Vi snackar också om senaste i "White People and Corporations Fucking Up 2017". Som tex Gina Tricots koloniala-musikal och Pepsis reklamfilm med Kendall Jenner. Och vi ställer frågan – How old is 15 really? Dessutom – flygbolag som misshandlar passagerare, Cassandras bday, musik och mer! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Matthew Sweet with music for films about whistle-blowers, Cassandras and Enemies of the People in the week that sees the launch of the Ibsenesque "Concussion" starring Will Smith. The programme features music from "I Robot"; "When Worlds Collide"; "The Bible - In The Beginning"; "Noah"; "Silkwood"; "The Village" and "The Parallax View". The Classic Score of the Week is John Williams's music for "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind". Matthew also casts a thought on this weekend's BAFTAs.
Rick, Hubert, Evi und ihr neuer Begleiter Garlyn erreichen den Planeten Liberty – eine gespenstische Welt, erfüllt von toxischen Stürmen. Rick erhofft sich, hier Cassandra zu finden. Doch kaum auf Liberty angekommen, geraten sie mit skrupellosen Raumpiraten aneinander, für die Garlyn kein Unbekannter ist…

If we were to listen to many of the Cassandras out there today, you would think that technology, information, and progress were all bad.They are the same people who would have objected to the printing press, the telephone, television and the automobile.They look at education and don't understand why memorization and rote learning are no longer worthy of attention and want to put the technology genie back in the bottle.Well, it's not going back in! In fact, much of what we have wrought as a society and as a civilization has made us better, smarter, and awakened whole new aspects of human potential. Journalist Clive Thompson makes the case in Smarter Than You Think: How Technology Is Changing Our Minds for the Better.My conversation with Clive Thompson:
Börspodden kommenterar Onivas senaste utspel, Cassandras panikåtgärder samt gör en genomgång av klädkedjornas framtid.
A discussion of how largely well-intentioned political and legal reactions to the highest-profile risks of ICT creates a danger of perhaps killing the goose that is giving us golden eggs of innovation, decentralization, and personal empowerment. From its inception, many have recognized the Internet's potential as a liberating, decentralizing, and, yes, destabilizing technology but also its counter-potential as a controlling and centralizing technology. Over the last two decades, predictions about the social effects of the Internet have ranged from cybernetic anarchy (both utopian and distopian) to the instantiation of a fascistic regime of surveillance that would make Orwell look like a piker. Some see a winner-take-all economy of massive new monopolies emerging on the back of network effects, others see the growth of a new economy in which intermediaries are replaced by huge open networks of buyers and sellers trading with e-cash on anonymous electronic exchanges - and evading their taxes. Meanwhile enthusiasts of electronic democracy and popular empowerment offer a vision sharply at odds with that of Cassandras of globalization for whom the Internet provides yet another occasion for decision-making authority to seep away towards relatively undemocratic trans-national bodies. One would think that such contrasting predictions could not possibly all be correct. Yet, for the last decade, to a surprising extent both sets of trends have manifested themselves simultaneously. The question is whether those two trends can continue, or if instead we are witnessing the start of a collision between them. At present, 'the Internet' is neither 'fraud's playground' nor democracy's. (Indeed, there is more than one 'Internet'.) Rather, different groups of people doing different things with different objectives have moved down independent paths. Now, however, these trends find themselves meeting at a crossroads: Largely well-intentioned political and legal reactions to the highest-profile risks of communications technology create a danger of at least wounding and perhaps in some areas even killing the goose that is giving us golden eggs of innovation, decentralization, and personal empowerment. Advances in medical records technology might give patients greater control over their treatment, but could also further disempower them, and (in the US at least) seem even more likely to become another target for data mining and marketing. E-government holds out the promise of more involved and better informed citizens. The same technologies may, however, also empower nosey neighbors, or the nanny state's evil sibling Big Sister, who knows what is best for you and has honed predictive profiling to the point where many find their liberty practically encumbered without being formally curtailed. Most immediately, technologies, practices, and technical standards that may appear benign in a democracy - may in truth be benign in a democracy - may take on a more sinister cast when adopted in more repressive regimes faced with indigenous pressure for reform. For example, the world witnessed via YouTube as Iranian demonstrators marched to protest the theft of an election. The communicative freedom making the sending of those images possible is a fragile thing, and could fall before the creation of standards and practices intended to foil digital piracy half a world away.
