MODERN ARCHITECT. Sean Griffiths is Professor of Architecture at the University of Westminster and former Visiting Professor of Architectural Design at Yale University. His current architecture and design practice Modern Architect was founded in 2014 and has worked largely on residential, commercial and public art projects. Previously Sean Griffiths was a founding director of the internationally renowned art/architecture practice FAT, where he won many design awards. FAT represented the UK at the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2014. "I was really thinking I would  pursue a career as an artist" "The idea that you make architecture as a sort of branding jewel that you place in a city is not something that I particularly love" "We use language to help us navigate the world, and architecture also creates patterns that help us navigate the world"

Richard and Denis Staunton, Irish Times Asia Editor, take a look at some of the stories making the headlines about China's economy. While the country is powering ahead on electric vehicles and AI, the intense competition between companies has caused prices to fall so much that many aren't making any money.

The deputy mayor of Tirana, Albania says she realized one day that her city had been planned with one user in mind - an adult male who needed to get to the office as quickly as possible. She says everything about Tirana's streets, public spaces and transport systems were designed to make his life easy. Anuela Ristani is one of the women in local government that we get to meet in Women Changing Cities, a new book by Canadian authors and urban mobility advocates Melissa and Chris Bruntlett. We speak with Melissa Bruntlett in this episode.

"'In Passage' was inspired by the field recording “Boat engines roar, Loch Coruisk” by Cities and Memory. I love this field recording of a tourist boat and wanted to enhance it with additional recordings from my library, including boat and shoreline field recordings, a contact microphone recording of a metal park gate, and sonic excerpts of other forms of travel: train, horse carriage and helicopter.  "The original field recording was edited into three parts, linked together and supported by my recordings." Isle of Skye ferry trip reimagined by Edward Ruchalski.

Aboard a tourist boat from Loch Coruisk to Elgol, with different tones, speeds and intensity of engine noise blending with the sound of waves. Recorded on the Isle of Skye by Cities and Memory, April 2025.

Recording inside an open air vent inside the two metre-thick wall of the concrete bunker building that forms the Boros Collection. The space has a fascinating past as a shelter, a prison for political prisoners, and a techno and sex club - and now it hosts a conceptual art exhibition.  The sound captures both the muffled sounds of museum-goers on one side, and the passage of air and the sounds from Berlin outside on the other. Recorded by Cities and Memory, September 2025. 

Fascinating micro-sounds from Coral Beach, when tiny, slow and quiet waves on this unique beach made of tiny stone, coral and shell fragments creates a beautiful "whooshing" sound with every pass.  Recorded on Coral Beach on the Isle of Skye by Cities and Memory, April 2025.  

A shock win feels like a movement—until the math starts. We dig into Zoran Mamdani's ascent with a clear-eyed look at why voters broke for him, what “anti-politics” actually signals, and how a mayor's bold promises get squeezed by bonds, taxes, and thin state capacity. The story here isn't a fairy tale of revival; it's a patient autopsy of party cartels in decline, activist narratives colliding with ordinary voter motives, and a political entrepreneur who read the room better than the machine.We unpack the split between the activist layer and the broader electorate: one sees a springboard for a project; the other wants rent relief and competent delivery. That tension meets hard constraints. Cities don't print money. They borrow or tax, and capital reacts. We trace why progressive mayors post-1950s hit the same wall, why LaGuardia needed Roosevelt's federal cash, and why Dinkins and de Blasio serve as useful mirrors for what comes next. If national headwinds return—especially a Trump-era reset—does combat raise Mamdani's profile while shrinking his room to maneuver, or does conciliation cost him the left while buying breathing room?We also zoom out: unions that poll well but feel managerial on the ground, populism as a political strategy rather than a mass social force, and the broader void where anti-politics thrives. Mamdani's early refusal to dignify culture-war bait showed how composure builds legitimacy in an era of institutional mistrust; later moralism was safer but weaker. The stakes now are concrete: visible affordability wins without tripping fiscal tripwires. If he threads that needle, he sets a new urban playbook. If not, the void stays open for the next savvy reader of the moment.If this lens helps you see past the noise, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with the one question you want answered next.Send us a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

This week on CODEPINK Radio: As the Trump administration deploys the National Guard to cities like D.C. and Chicago under the pretext of “fighting crime,” communities are instead met with intimidation, militarization, and deepened harm. Local organizers know what truly reduces violence: investing in housing, youth programs, mental health care, and real economic justice, not flooding neighborhoods with soldiers. Danaka talks to organizers from D.C. and Chicago about how this domestic repression is tied to the ballooning Pentagon budget and why defunding the Pentagon and reinvesting in our communities is the only path to real safety.

The Park Cities wouldn't be what it is today without the people dedicated to preserving its history and charm. I sat down with Jason Morski, president of Preservation Park Cities, and Larry Good, architect and author of 100 Houses in the Park Cities, to talk about the stories behind our most iconic homes and why preservation matters now more than ever. From the famous “Mushroom House” to the beloved landmarks that define our neighborhood, this episode is a love letter to the past — and a reminder that protecting it keeps our community special for generations to come.To learn more visit https://preservationparkcities.org/This episode is sponsored by: Cambridge Caregivers Kathy L Wall State Farm Agency | Mother Modern Plumbing | SA Oral Surgeons | Please show your support for the show by visiting our amazing sponsors.

Taking a break next in a pasture on a hike in the Dolomites, while we admire the view we can hear birdsong in the trees surrounding us and the gentle buzz of insects. Recorded by Cities and Memory, July 2025. 

In this episode of The Intelligent Community, ICF Co-Founder Lou Zacharilla has a conversation with Michel Ângelo Bomtempo, mayor of Assaí, Paraná, Brazil. Mayor Bomtempo and a team of young people engage ICF to promote their city. It's fresh and shows why the ICF Awards are so important. Businessman in the metalworking industry, mayor Bomtempo was elected mayor four times in the city of Assaí, Paraná, Brazil. In the third term of mayor (2021/2024), through the adoption of a smart cities concept, with a focus on training and retaining talent, the city of Assaí acquired more than 20 awards, ranking among the 7 smartest communities in the world, by ICF, and winning the National Innovation Award, by Sebrae. Assaí proved that small cities can also gain global relevance, being active in large governance bodies such as Johns Hopkins University's Cities of Services and the UN's Cities Coalition for Digital Rights. Mayor Michel Bomtempo is considered one of the great political organizers in Brazil, being a mayor of high importance for the State of Paraná.

Inside the Boros Collection bunker, listening to a sound installation of distorted bells on a speaker suspended by chains, made by Eliza Douglas. The space has a fascinating past as a shelter, a prison for political prisoners, and a techno and sex club - and now it hosts a conceptual art exhibition. The sound captures both the muffled sounds of museum-goers on one side, and the passage of air and the sounds from Berlin outside on the other. Recorded in Berlin by Cities and Memory, September 2025.

A walkthrough of Berlin's main station, with announcements drenched in the huge reverb of the station hall, then the classic sounds of trolley bags, escalators, passengers as we explore this vast station and make our way underground to the U-bahn.  Recorded in Berlin by Cities and Memory, September 2025. 

A remarkable fog installation in the sculpture garden of the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin, by Fujiko Nakaya. This site-specific installation activates once per hour, and fills the garden with vaporous fog, playing with the architecture of Mies van der Rohe. Fog formations emerge from different sides of the garden, blending with the trees and permanent sculptures, before slowly dissolving into the sky.  The moving fog appears at various densities, at times at a nearly tangible volume, at others as a translucent veil. And it's an interesting sonic experience too - and fascinating to be the only person there focusing on the sounds, instead of the remarkable sights.  Recorded by Cities and Memory.

Navigating Expat Taxes: Insights for Dream RetireesSnagged a dream place in Puerto Vallarta or Mykonos… and now the IRS is at the door? Today we're joined by expat tax expert Michelle Miele (Director of Paperwork) to decode how U.S. taxes work when you retire abroad. We cover Social Security, IRA/401(k)/Roth distributions, self-employment/online business income, countries with and without U.S. tax treaties, foreign tax credits, and common traps (like selling your U.S. home after you change tax residency). Three real-world scenarios—Mexico, Portugal, and Thailand—show you how this plays out.Key Takeaways:Filing ≠ owing. You'll likely file in the U.S. even after moving, but credits/treaties can prevent double tax.Order matters: generally file where you live first, then the U.S., and use foreign tax credits to offset.Roth alert: some countries tax Roth distributions; plan timing and residency to protect withdrawals.Entity traps: your LLC/S-corp may be treated as a corporation abroad; confirm local treatment before you move.Real estate timing: if selling a U.S. primary home, sell while still a U.S. tax resident to preserve exclusions.Benefits trade-off: higher taxes in some countries may be offset by much lower healthcare and living costs.Related Queer Money Episodes:Ep 614 — Top 5 Cities for Gay Retirement in TaiwanEp 610 — Best LGBTQ+ Retirement Cities in GreeceEp 607 — The $6,000 “Boomer Bonus” Deduction StrategiesEp 599 — Affordable Gay-Friendly Cities in PortugalEp 542 — Gay Expats in Mexico: Pacific Coast EditionChapters:00:11 - Navigating Taxes as an Expat Retiree03:51 - Understanding Tax Obligations for Expats11:34 - Tax Implications of Living Abroad14:10 - Tax Obligations for Expats: A Case Study21:25 - Retirement Abroad: Tax Implications28:09 - Planning for Retirement AbroadMentioned in this episode:Get Your Portugal Golden Visa Faster Here!Want a European passport with access to living in nearly any European country?

PREVIEW. Russia Attacks Ukraine's Energy Nodes: Expecting a Hard Winter. John Hardie discusses Russia's attacks on Ukrainian energy nodes, meaning large cities like Kyiv may only have about 12 hours of electricity daily. This lack of power will put extreme pressure on Ukrainian civilian life during the winter. Moscow hopes freezing the population will break Ukrainian will and add leverage to their negotiating position, though this tactic has not worked in the past two winters. 1940 UKRAINE

Lawrence M. Schell is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Anthropology and the College of Integrated Health Sciences at the University at Albany, SUNY, with a joint appointment in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics. His research explores the interrelationship between biology and culture, with a particular focus on how contemporary urban environments shape human health and development. Dr. Schell's early work examined noise as a form of urban stress, investigating its effects on prenatal and postnatal growth. He later expanded his research to include pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and lead, situating these exposures within the broader context of urban adaptation and health disparities. The study of lead exposure in Albany, NY, examined its influence on child physical and cognitive development, with attention to maternal nutrition and other factors that affect the transfer of lead from mother to fetus. In partnership with the Akwesasne Mohawk Nation he has recently completed three major projects. The first examined how PCBs that were used in manufacturing affect physical and sexual development during adolescence. His second project followed up the adolescents in project 1 to learn how exposure had influenced their transition into adulthood. The third project, also conducted with the Akwesasne community, explored how environmental pollutants may impact reproductive health and fertility among women. Through this work, Dr. Schell highlights the urban environment as a critical frontier for human adaptation, emphasizing the challenges posed by pollution, stress, and other features of modern city life while recognizing that these challenges are inequitably distributed in society. In 2004 Schell established a research center at Albany with NIH support to grow research on health disparities. Continued NIH support culminated in an endowment grant that will support the center and the development of health disparities research for many years to come. ------------------------------ Contact the Sausage of Science Podcast and the Human Biology Association: Facebook: facebook.com/groups/humanbiologyassociation/, Website: humbio.org, Twitter: @HumBioAssoc Chris Lynn, Co-Host Website: cdlynn.people.ua.edu/, E-mail: cdlynn@ua.edu, Twitter:@Chris_Ly Courtney Manthey, Guest-Co-Host, Website: holylaetoli.com/ E-mail: cpierce4@uccs.edu, Twitter: @HolyLaetoli Anahi Ruderman, SoS Co-Producer, HBA Junior Fellow, E-mail: ruderman@cenpat-conicet.gob.ar

Vestas continues to make headwinds in the US, despite the current administration's disdain for wind energy. Sign up now for Uptime Tech News, our weekly email update on all things wind technology. This episode is sponsored by Weather Guard Lightning Tech. Learn more about Weather Guard's StrikeTape Wind Turbine LPS retrofit. Follow the show on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Linkedin and visit Weather Guard on the web. And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Vestas is making headway in America. Despite a president who has a dim view of their product. Despite the administration halting offshore wind projects across the country. Despite tariffs climbing over one hundred percent. Vestas delivered more than sixty percent MORE to America in the third quarter of this year. Vestas delivered ONSHORE wind turbines. One point four gigawatts [GIG-uh-wahts]. Enough to power more than four hundred thousand homes. Every third turbine they delivered worldwide went to the US - that Danish wind turbine manufacturer - has a chief executive named HENRIK ANDERSEN. VESTAS Chief Executive HENRIK ANDERSEN.Andersen said something remarkable recently: "We are pleased with what we see." Now you might wonder how. How does a wind company GROW when the White House opposes wind turbines? How do orders INCREASE when the administration halts offshore wind development? How does business boom when tariffs make everything more expensive? Here's what VESTAS figured out two decades ago. They built blade factories in Colorado. Nacelle factories too. More than twelve hundred American companies are in their supply chain. Creating jobs. Creating trust. Creating roots too deep to pull up. And here's the thing about electricity in America today: The demand is so HIGH - from factories, from those hungry data centers powering artificial intelligence - that customers will buy power REGARDLESS of tariffs. As Andersen puts it: "Electricity is in such high demand that orders will actually be fulfilled." Some customers ARE waiting for clarity on those tariffs. VESTAS admits it would have gotten even MORE orders without them. And yes, offshore wind orders? Zero. Not a single megawatt in the third quarter. The administration saw to that. Despite everything - the politics, the tariffs, the offshore freeze - wind remains the most cost-effective electricity source available. ONSHORE wind. Seven to nine percent annual growth expected through twenty thirty. And VESTAS? They're so confident they just announced a one hundred fifty million EURO share buyback program. That's money they're returning to shareholders. You don't do that unless you believe in what's coming next. Twenty-five hundred megawatts ordered for the Americas in just one quarter. The US and Germany - driving their order book right now. Now Andersen won't predict WHEN all those waiting customers will place their orders. "It's simply too difficult to predict," he says. But he adds this: "We take the orders we can get" And there's something else worth knowing. Those rising electricity prices everyone's feeling? In parts of America, wholesale power costs jumped as much as two hundred sixty-seven percent in just five years. Baltimore. Los Angeles. Minneapolis. Cities far from data centers paying more because the grid serves everyone. VESTAS is betting that when power bills climb, wind becomes MORE attractive. Not less. The cheapest electron wins. And right now, even WITH tariffs, wind is delivering the most affordable power in America. So while Washington halts offshore projects and debates tariffs, this Danish company just keeps building ONSHORE. Keeps hiring. Keeps delivering. One point four gigawatts at a time. The administration froze offshore wind. But VESTAS found another way.

From reducing air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions to lowering rates of chronic disease and promoting mental well-being, active transport systems are reshaping cities and lives. On this week's episode of Joint Action, we are joined by Professor Adam Millard-Ball to explore how communities are reimagining streets to prioritise people over cars. Adam Millard-Ball is a professor of urban planning at the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs where he also directs the UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies. His research addresses the challenges of transportation and climate change by how we plan our streets and move around our cities and to identify and evaluate policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Climate change is real, and extreme weather events are its physical manifestations. These extreme events affect how we live and work in cities, and subsequently the way we design, plan, and govern them. Taking action 'for the environment' is not only a moral imperative; instead, it is activated by our everyday experience in the city. Based on the author's site visits and interviews in Darwin (Australia), Tulsa (Oklahoma), Cleveland (Ohio), and Cape Town (South Africa), Ihnji Jon's Cities in the Anthropocene: New Ecology and Urban Politics (Pluto Press, 2021) tells the story of how cities can lead a transformative pro-environment politics. National governments often fail to make binding agreements that bring about radical actions for the environment. This book shows how cities, as local sites of mobilizing a collective, political agenda, can be frontiers for activating the kind of environmental politics that appreciates the role of 'nature' in the everyday functioning of our urban life.

In breaking news, a Trump-appointed Federal Judge issued a late Sunday night emergency Preliminary Injunction continuing to block Trump's attempts to violate State Sovereignty and federalize and deploy state militia/national guard on the streets of Portland. Michael Popok explains that the Judge will be entering the final Permanent Injunction against The Trump Administration by Friday, but because Trump refused to give her the time to issue her final order, she was forced to enter an emergency preliminary injunction.
