The enzyme converts the precursors in barley to free thiols that smell and taste like passionfruit and grapefruit. It's super clean. No off-flavors like burnt rubber or other sulfurous notes. Just tropical aromatics. You don't have to do anything unusual either, like mash hopping. Just pitch dry Tropics and supercharge your hazy IPA.Barrel One CollectiveIn a landmark merger between two pioneers of New England's craft beer industry, Mass. Bay Brewing Company and Finestkind Brewing LLC proudly announce the formation of Barrel One Collective. The Collective will house 14 total brands, operate eight brewery-taprooms across four states (MA, NH, NY, VT) and have a combined production volume of nearly 165,000 barrels, positioning it as the largest craft producer in New England and 14th largest in the country according to Brewer's Association 2023 Production Data.All About BeerAt All About Beer, we're honored to share the stories that define the beer community, and we couldn't do it without the generous support of our underwriting sponsors.

“Climate activists are sometimes depicted as dangerous radicals. But the truly dangerous radicals are the countries that are increasing the production of fossil fuels. Investing in new fossil fuel infrastructure is moral and economic madness.”  Antonio Guterres, UN General SecretaryWe know that the current system is not fit for purpose. We know that we're hurtling to the edge of the 6th mass extinction, blowing apart all of the predictions about the speed and scale of ecosystem breakdown.  And still we listen to politicians argue about whether GDP has gone up by 0.1% and if so, who is to claim the credit?  They plan for war without understanding that there are no armies, no nations, no people - or any complex life - on a dead planet. What good are science and rational persuasion if no one is paying attention? The climate crisis deepens with terrifying predictability. Meanwhile, the courageous young campaigners who seek to wake us up to the truth of this, through peaceful direct action, are silenced and stuck in prison.Daniel Knorr is one of those young people.  He was 22 years old at the time the book was published, and had previously studied biochemistry at Oxford with a view to engineering plants to be more resilient to extreme weather conditions.  As you'll hear, he realised this was no longer where he needed to be, and joined Just Stop Oil, whose ethos and grounding question is: what does it make to be a good person in this time of collapse - or perhaps transition?  I'll let him tell you his story, but—like the stories of the other 25 young people in the book—it's humbling and inspiring in equal measure. Jonathon Porritt is well known to anyone in the Green or eco-campaigning community in the UK.  He was formerly Co-Chair of the Green Party (1980-83) and Director of Friends of the Earth (1984-90). He was a Board Member of The Southwest Regional Development Agency between 1999 and 2008. He stood down as Chair of the UK Sustainable Development Commission in 2009, after nine years providing high-level advice to Government Ministers, and served a ten-year term as Chancellor of Keele University (2012-2022). He was awarded a CBE in January 2000 for services to environmental protection.Together, we discuss Love, Anger and Betrayal, which brings Jonathan's experience as a long time campaigner into juxtaposition with the experiences of young people one third his age who are doing their best to make the world a better place. Theirs is a generation systematically betrayed by politicians. And by all of us who allow this to continue, on our watch, year after year.  What comes across in this book, though, is that while Jonathan feels the kind of white hot rage that consumes many of us, Daniel and those around him are focusing on embodying love for each other and the planet. ‘We have a choice. Collective action or collective suicide. It is in our hands.'-António GuterresLet's explore what we can do, shall we? LinksLove, Anger and Betrayal websiteJonathan's website Jonathan's short film about the bookBetter Coalition—About Accidental Gods—We offer three strands all rooted in the same soil, drawing from the same river: Accidental Gods, Dreaming Awake and the Thrutopia Writing Masterclass Our next Open Gathering offered as part of our Accidental Gods Programme is 'BECOMING A GOOD ANCESTOR' which will run on Sunday 13th September 2026 from 16:00 - 20:00 GMT - details are here.

Most leaders treat fear as the thing blocking them. Amy Elizabeth Fox, CEO of Mobius Executive Leadership and Nicholas Janni, both co-authors of Leading in Chaos, argue the opposite: you block fear, and that blocking is quietly costing you presence, judgment, and your team's best thinking.Along with host Ashish Kothari, you'll discover why emotional intelligence in leadership starts in the body, the practices that ground you when everything is unpredictable, and why the times are urgent enough that we must slow down. For leaders and executives who are done white-knuckling through chaos and ready to lead from somewhere deeper.What You Will Learn:1. Fear isn't the block. You are. "Fear doesn't block me. The problem is I block fear." Let the wave move through you before the hard conversation. What's on the other side is presence, not paralysis.2. Get in your body before you decide. Soften the out-breath. Feel your feet, feel your chair. Thirty seconds changes your brainwave state, and you can do it mid-meeting. You can't steady a room you haven't steadied yourself in.3. Stop performing certainty. The picture is too big for one mind. Sit with your team in "we don't know," listen until other views actually land, and watch the periphery for early signals instead of rushing to fix.4. Slow down because the times are urgent. When you're moving fast in ten directions, you're busy but not effective. Block out time that's unplugged and unscheduled. One well-aimed move beats a dozen rushed ones.5. Don't shrink, don't inflate. Humility isn't making yourself small. It's owning what you're actually good at while letting go of the need to control how things turn out. Try saying: "I don't know, but together we can figure it out."Episode Chapters: 02:58 Healing inherited trauma is part of leadership.07:27 - Sense-making must go beyond intellect.12:19 - Practical ways to become more grounded.18:08 - Opening the heart strengthens teams.21:23 - Emotions are meant to be felt, not suppressed.31:51 - Spaciousness is a leadership discipline.39:01 - Humility means occupying the right space.43:29 - Intuition and “field intelligence” emerge through presence.49:17 - Collective healing needs both justice and inner development.Resources:Connect with the GuestLinkedIn: Amy Elizabeth FoxLinkedIn: Nicholas JanniRecommended Reading: Leading in ChaosConnect with the HostLinkedIn: Ashish KothariWebsite: Happiness SquadBook: Hardwired For HappinessYouTube: Happiness Squad ChannelTEDx: How to make flourishing your competitive edgeIf this conversation sparked something for you, please subscribe and leave a review, it takes 30 seconds and helps more people discover the show.

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna sits down with Morgan Grace, founder of Alchemy Collective, to explore the nonlinear journey that led her from music and multiple college majors to a career in trauma therapy. Morgan shares how her own healing journey ultimately reshaped her direction and inspired the work she does today. She also opens up about building Alchemy Collective and how her personal experiences have shaped the way she supports individuals, couples, and families navigating complex trauma and mental health challenges.Together, Joanna and Morgan discuss the pressure to have life figured out early, why young adulthood is meant to be a time of trial and error, and the importance of giving ourselves—and the young adults in our lives—the flexibility to change course while figuring out who we are. Morgan offers a refreshing reminder that changing your mind doesn't mean you're falling behind; it can simply be part of honing the compass toward what's right for you.Morgan's Resources: Alchemy Collective WebsiteContact Alchemy CollectiveAlchemy Collective on InstagramAlchemy Collective on FacebookAlchemy Collective on LinkedInMorgan Grace on InstagramMorgan Grace on LinkedInEmail: morgan@alchemycollectiveaustin.comConnect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail: joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #MorganGrace #AlchemyCollectiveAustin #TraumaTherapy #TraumaTherapist #ComplexTrauma #TraumaHealing #TraumaRecovery #AlchemyCollective #MendTheMender

Rest, By Force or By Choice: Burnout, Self-Care, and Sustainable Practice for Therapists - An Interview with Cecily Moore, PhD Dr. Cecily Moore on burnout, rest as a clinical intervention, and unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative. Curt and Katie talk with Dr. Cecily Moore, a licensed therapist, counselor educator, and clinical supervisor, about why the expectation of endless strength and infinite patience is an unsustainable ask for therapists and other helping professionals. As clinicians carry collective grief and moral exhaustion alongside their clients, Dr. Moore reframes what burnout is actually asking of us. At the center of the conversation is a simple, uncomfortable idea: your body is designed to protect you, so you will stop either by force or by choice. Dr. Moore makes the case for rest as a clinical intervention rather than a reward, unpacks how self-care has been co-opted into something you buy instead of something that restores you, and explains why advocacy that runs on depletion is a ticking time bomb. Real self-care, she argues, is honest about limits, boundaries, and capacity. From there the discussion turns practical. Dr. Moore shares how deeper values work (asking where a value came from and how it was modeled) opens the door to change, how her "BS Job" checklist gives clinicians a concrete mirror for what is draining them, and why systems will not shift until the people inside them do. She also connects this to her research on unlearning the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs about strength, productivity, and worth that keep so many helpers over-functioning. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation for any therapist trying to build a sustainable career without abandoning the work they care about. In this episode, we discuss: - Why endless strength and infinite patience are an unsustainable ask for helping professionals - How to tell rest as a clinical intervention apart from self-care that has been co-opted - Why your body will make you stop, by force or by choice - How to size your advocacy to your actual capacity so it does not deplete you - What deeper values work looks like, and why it drives real change - Why unlearning survival-based beliefs about strength and worth makes practice more sustainable Timestamps: - 01:20 - Who Dr. Moore is and what she puts into the world - 02:49 - What therapists get wrong about endless strength and infinite patience - 04:17 - Collective trauma and watching the world change in real time - 06:37 - Moral injury, privilege, and truth-telling across lived experience - 10:29 - How self-care got co-opted, and why advocacy runs on your well-being - 13:07 - Why rest feels so scary - 15:00 - Reframing self-care as self-maintenance - 18:58 - Over-functioning students and learning to be human - 22:49 - Insight versus implementation, and the systemic barriers - 24:15 - Why systems can't shift until the people do - 28:13 - Sustainable choices, by force or by choice - 29:16 - Values work and the "BS Job" checklist - 31:24 - The Strong Black Woman Narrative and questioning conditioning - 35:28 - Where to find Dr. Moore Guest Bio: Dr. Cecily Moore is a licensed therapist, counselor educator, researcher, and clinical supervisor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. She is the founder of Dr. Cecily Moore & Associates and the creator of the Reappropriate, Redefine, Recover framework, which helps Black women unlearn the Strong Black Woman Narrative and the survival-based beliefs around strength, productivity, and worth that fuel burnout. Her work blends trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and culturally responsive practice, and reframes rest as a clinical intervention, not a reward. Learn more at drcecilymoore.com.

What if becoming more successful isn't about doing more, but about finally deciding what you're ready to stop doing?   After 20 years of entrepreneurship, I've learned that some of my biggest shifts have come from letting go of the habits, beliefs, and rules I once thought were essential for success.   In this episode, I'm sharing 10 lessons I've learned about self-leadership, managing your mind, protecting your energy, overcoming perfectionism, trusting yourself, and identifying which goals are actually worth pursuing.   I'll help you look at the rules you've been following and decide whether they're truly serving the woman and entrepreneur you're becoming.  

Host Erin Ayala sits down with writer, speaker, and educator Chrissy King to unpack “body liberation” and how racism, diet culture, and the relentless “maxing” mindset intersect.Chrissy shares personal stories from her journey—writing The Body Liberation Project, navigating publishing, and redefining success on her own terms.Listeners will walk away with a fresh framework for reclaiming their bodies, boosting joy, and building collective freedom in their personal and professional lives.Key TakeawaysBody liberation vs. body positivity: Liberation means challenging systemic racism and diet culture, not just “loving every inch.”Spot the “maxing” trap: Constantly optimizing (protein, fitness, productivity) drains bandwidth and hampers creativity; learn to set intentional, sustainable limits.Collective liberation: Use your privilege to call out fat‑phobic, racist, or exclusionary language in everyday conversations and professional settings.Practical habit shifts: 1. Identify one standard you're chasing that isn't yours and pause it this week. 2. Replace doom‑scrolling with a tactile activity (e.g., crochet, chess) to reset mental bandwidth. 3. Share resources (books, articles) that center marginalized voices instead of speaking for them.Publishing insights: A slower, deliberate book proposal can yield a far better deal than an immediate offer.Chrissy's Substack, The Liberation Collective – https://chrissyking.com/substack (or similar)Instagram & TikTok: @iamchrissyking – https://instagram.com/iamchrissykingIf you found this conversation valuable, hit Subscribe so you never miss an episode, leave a review on your favorite platform, and share the episode with fellow entrepreneurs who are ready to break free from limiting body narratives.

In today's episode on What Being Constantly Reachable Is Costing You, Erin Bradley shares: The Collective poll that started it all: "On a scale of 1 to 10, how tethered to your phone do you feel?" The lowest answer in the room was an 8 Where the checking habit really came from: the day you went 100% commission, adopted uncertainty, and started making yourself available out of anxiety Why people are fed up with the performance of "I'm fine," and why 24-7 availability is not "just the way it is" but scarcity passed down through the generations The client who admitted he hasn't taken a single untethered vacation in 25 years, and the "fingers crossed" joke that exposed how absurd that tolerance is The 4 discovery questions of this episode: How tethered are you, 1 to 10? What are you actually checking for, intentional or autopilot? What are you afraid would go wrong if you stopped? And who told you it was necessary? What being constantly reachable is costing the Collective members in their own words: energy, peace, and sanity The line to write down and keep: "Just because I can, doesn't mean I should" Why your fear is often a liar, "the most untrustworthy part of being human," and how your own track record of acting in spite of fear proves it Whether consumers ever actually demanded 9pm replies, or whether we trained them by always answering Erin's 2013 near-quit, the 2014 first hire that doubled the business, and the coach who said, "You need to do a lot less in order to do a lot more" The art of subtraction: the question isn't how to optimize more, it's what can I subtract?

Your highest-impact employee may not have the biggest title, loudest voice, or most visible role. So why do traditional performance systems keep overlooking them? Nikki sits down with Jacob Chase, founder and CEO of The INFIN, to explore a new way to measure human contribution. Jacob explains how decentralized feedback, collective intelligence, and real-time performance data can reveal who is truly creating value across an organization. They unpack the limitations of traditional reviews, the growing impact of AI on employee performance, and why real meritocracy begins when people are rewarded for the value they create. This conversation challenges people-first leaders to move beyond rigid scorecards, recognize invisible contributions, and build workplaces where serving others drives individual and organizational success.   Additional Resources: Connect with Jacob on LinkedIn Reach out for a free pilot implementation at https://www.theinfin.com/ Watch Gut + Science (and more) on YouTube!

Have you ever known exactly what you need to do but still found yourself avoiding it?   Today, I'm digging into why this happens and how your thoughts, beliefs, and perspective can influence everything from procrastination and sales in your business to tackling difficult conversations and leading a team.   I'll share practical questions you can use to uncover the thinking behind your actions and help you move forward with more clarity and confidence. We'll also talk about why great leadership isn't just about giving direction; it's about helping yourself and others think differently.   My goal is for you to walk away with one powerful question: What am I thinking that's creating what I'm doing?  

Collective Mining Executive Chairman Ari Sussman joins Trevor Hall to discuss the company's move to the Nasdaq and why Colombia's new pro-growth government could open an important window for mine development. Ari outlines the path toward a maiden resource estimate for the Apollo system in September, followed by accelerated permitting and a potential construction decision later this decade. The conversation also covers development of the exploration adit toward Apollo, the significant discovery potential at Trap and Plutus, and how that underground infrastructure could eventually become part of a future mining operation. Finally, Ari discusses Collective's relationship with local communities and the company's response following the recent earthquake in western Colombia.

"I really do believe that the arts are critical to how we move forward together, and live performance in particular, I think, is a way of us practicing how to move across our ideological boundaries and find one another and imagine these new worlds together and create together."Shanta Thake is the Chief Artistic Officer at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts—the nation's largest performing arts complex. Before stepping into this role, she spent nineteen years at The Public Theater, shaping the city's cultural landscape through Joe's Pub and expansive community initiatives. Today, she is tearing down walls—both the literal barriers separating Lincoln Center from its neighbors, and the figurative ones that dictate who belongs in our cultural spaces. She views the arts not as a luxury, but as essential civic infrastructure. We are pleased to have Shanta Thake to discuss her journey, the power of radical curation, and the future of public performance.(01:30) The Gift of Pause(04:19) Art as the Oldest Technology(07:12) Reimagining Lincoln Center(09:35) A Collective Caretaking(10:13) The Curiosity of Childhood(15:19) San Juan Hill and The Wall(17:57) globalFEST: Music and ConnectionEpisode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

Suffering Is Collective, and So Is Healing: Belonging, Ritual, and Meaning in Uncertain Times - An Interview with Suzan Song, MD Suzan Song, MD, psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, on why suffering is collective and healing comes through belonging, ritual, and meaning. Curt and Katie talk with Suzan Song, MD about why the exhaustion so many therapists and clients are carrying right now is not only personal. Drawing on more than two decades of global mental health work with survivors of war, trafficking, and mass violence, Suzan makes the case that distress is often collective, shaped by culture and unstable systems, and that healing happens through belonging, narrative, ritual, meaning, and agency, not symptom elimination alone. She names what American mental health training often misses when it treats suffering as something bounded inside a single person, and offers concrete, low-cost rituals therapists can use to stay grounded. The conversation moves from collective grief and moral exhaustion to the difference between functioning and healing, and to grounding in relationship: who you matter to, and who matters to you. This is a grounding conversation for therapists feeling stretched by the current moment, and for anyone drawn to a global mental health lens on collective trauma, ritual, and sustainable healing. In this episode, we discuss: - Why the distress therapists and clients carry right now is collective, not only individual - What American mental health training misses when it locates suffering inside a bounded self - How belonging, narrative, ritual, and meaning function as healing - Why functioning is not the same as healing - Grounding in relationship as an alternative to purely individual nervous-system regulation - How small acts of agency protect against demoralization - Low-cost rituals therapists can use to keep moral exhaustion from following them home Timestamps: 01:44 - Who Suzan Song is and what she puts into the world 02:58 - How a medical anthropology lens changes clinical work 05:34 - When the self is collective, not bounded 09:18 - Collective suffering and the loss of agency 12:18 - Moral injury and disengagement in therapists 17:23 - Finding your own rituals as a therapist 24:07 - Grounding in relationship 28:13 - Why functioning is not healing Guest Bio: Suzan Song, MD, MPH, PhD is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, and a professor of psychiatry at George Washington University. She has spent more than two decades advising on mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) in humanitarian and conflict-affected settings, and is the author of Why We Suffer and How We Heal (Harmony / Penguin Random House, 2026).

How can schools move beyond reacting to harm and instead create the conditions that help prevent it? A continuation of the conversation started in the episode, The Sustainability Myth: What Schools Get Wrong About Restorative Practices, host Claire de Mézerville López welcomes back Lan Nguyen and Jennifer Vermillion of the San Diego County Office of Education to explore how restorative practices can interrupt the school-to-prison nexus through systems change, collaboration, and relationship-centered leadership.  Together, they challenge traditional approaches to discipline and examine why keeping young people out of the justice system requires more than school-based interventions. From engaging families and community organizations to ensuring restorative processes are accessible to all students, the conversation highlights the importance of expanding who has a voice and who has a seat at the table. Lan and Jennifer also discuss one of the greatest barriers to sustainable implementation: expecting educators to lead change without first creating the conditions for their own well-being. They argue that lasting transformation begins by investing in adults, fostering belonging, and moving beyond one-time training toward leadership that embodies restorative practices.   Jennifer is a project specialist with the San Diego County Office of Education, providing professional learning and coaching on restorative practices implementation. Before working with the County Office, Jennifer spent 5 years with a non-profit, supporting schools in San Diego with their restorative practices implementation, training, and student leadership initiatives. She provided direct services in addressing conflict issues between students, families, and school staff through a restorative justice model that kept youth out of the justice system. She received her bachelor's degree in psychology and her master's degree in peace and justice studies.  Lan is a futurist, educator, and leader who is passionate about designing and implementing more liberatory ways of engaging, teaching, and leading in schools. In her work, she critiques and examines systems of power, applies participatory and humanizing approaches to systems change, and uses a decolonial lens to understand issues of educational and social inequity. Lan has held diverse roles in K-12 education, supporting local, statewide, and national projects on community engagement and school climate. She currently supports restorative justice practices implementation across San Diego County at the San Diego County Office of Education.  Tune in to hear more practical wisdom for restorative practitioners navigating current social challenges, with more patience, trust, and humility.

Nicky Alan, portal medium and author of the Earthwalkers series, delivers a prophetic message that we are living through a biblical-scale wake-up call—where the chaos, fires, earthquakes, and global unrest are not signs of doom, but the planet's desperate cry for humanity to awaken before it's too late. The 1940s marked the beginning of an accelerated consciousness shift, and now we stand at a pivotal crossroads where 2032 will determine whether Earth becomes a utopia or a desert wasteland.Through her extraordinary Stargate journey, Nicky was shown a Pleiadian healing planet where sound, light, and crystalline frequencies repair bodies without pain—a technology she predicts will soon manifest on Earth. She reveals that the current chaos is intentionally designed to strip away control systems, expose hidden truths, and force humanity to reclaim its sovereignty. From the thinning veil making angelic contact easier than ever, to the activation of our left brain hemispheres for greater psychic reception, we are being upgraded at an unprecedented rate.Nicky shares her personal battle with grief after her partner Darren's death, showing how spiritual tools—crystals, meditation, ocean grounding—can transmute even the deepest trauma. She warns that Lucifer's energy is currently free and creating the greatest war of light and dark, but emphasizes that we are winning as more people awaken daily. The eclipse season offers a powerful opportunity to clear soul baggage, embrace Emperor and Sun energy, and step into leadership.Will you use this time of dismantling to release old patterns and claim your power, or will you let the chaos consume you?___

This week on the SUPERLATIVE Podcast, host and aBlogtoWatch Founder Ariel Adams is joined by Gabe Reilly, Co-Founder of Collective Horology. Ariel and Gabe discuss the growing appeal of independent watchmaking and why collectors are increasingly drawn to brands with a strong creative identity, personality, and sense of purpose. Gabe explains how Collective approaches independent watch retail, why community and in person experiences have become so important, and how the resurgence of analog culture is helping mechanical watches find new relevance with consumers.The conversation also explores the challenges facing the traditional Swiss watch industry, from changing retail dynamics and consolidation to the difficulty some established brands have adapting to the American market. Gabe shares his perspective on what truly makes a watch brand independent, why collectors often view buying independent watches as a form of patronage, and how Collective has evolved from creating limited collaborations into a retailer dedicated to discovering and supporting independent watchmakers. Ariel and Gabe also discuss the changing media landscape and why watch brands need to become more comfortable with honest commentary, experimentation, and engaging directly with their communities. Tune in for a thoughtful look at why independent watchmaking continues to resonate with collectors and what its growing influence could mean for the future of the watch industry.Learn more about Gabe and Collective Horology:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/collectivehorology - Website - https://collectivehorology.com/ SUPERLATIVE IS NOW ON YOUTUBE!

"On utilise la bêtise des autres pour annuler sa bêtise à soi" Série spéciale Intelligence(s)Cet été, IFTTD part en exploration. Sur les 52 derniers épisodes, on a parlé d'intelligence artificielle 38 fois. On maîtrise plutôt bien la partie artificielle &mdash mais l'intelligence, la vraie, l'originale, on n'en a presque jamais parlé. Alors le temps d'un été, on remonte à la source : 6 épisodes, 6 chercheurs, pour comprendre ce qu'est vraiment l'intelligence.Le D.E.V. de la semaine est Emile Servan-Schreiber, entrepreneur et chercheur, fondateur de Hypermind (intelligence collective) et The Forecasting Machine (intelligence artificielle). Dans cet épisode, Emile nous explique comment l'intelligence collective permet d'améliorer les décisions, à condition de structurer le processus par des règles et de valoriser la diversité d'opinions. À travers l'exemple célèbre de la devinette du poids du b&oeliguf de Galton, il montre que la performance d'un groupe n'est pas seulement une question d'expertise mais aussi de divergence d'opinions. Il partage les limites du collectif, les conditions pour le faire fonctionner, et fait le parallèle fascinant entre nos cerveaux, les IA et les colonies de termites. Un échange pour comprendre pourquoi, parfois, il vaut mieux 100 opinions différentes qu'une seule certitude.Chapitrages00:01:00 : La foule intelligente00:05:10 : Naissance des marchés prédictifs00:08:23 : Règles du collectif00:14:08 : Le théorème de diversité00:19:28 : Expertise contre diversité00:29:21 : Le jury et la conformité00:31:38 : La force de l'hétérogénéité00:39:33 : Réunions et décisions00:46:48 : Le collectif des LLM00:56:43 : Livres et inné-acquis Liens évoqués pendant l'émission Livre: "Supercollectif" de Emile Servan-SchreiberLivre: "Brief history of intelligence" de Max BennettJeu: Marché prédictif HypermindFilm: 12 hommes en colère

Because the problem was never your schedule. It was the story driving it.In this episode you'll learn:Why over-delivering and codependency with clients is ego-driven — and where it really comes fromHow conditional love in childhood creates a lifelong pattern of working to earn worthWhat reparenting your inner child actually looks like in practiceThe business shifts Danny recommends — pricing, delegation, and scaling — to reclaim your time and incomeReady to find out which community is right for you?

The Day We Invented a MonsterThe New Monsters – Episode One For thousands of years, humanity has created monsters. But we rarely know who created them. Vampires emerged from centuries of whispered folklore. Werewolves wandered through medieval Europe long before anyone thought to record the first storyteller's name. Ghosts belonged to abandoned houses, forgotten battlefields, and generations of frightened imaginations. Then, in June of 2009, something unprecedented happened. An ordinary graphic designer entered an online Photoshop contest and unknowingly created the first monster whose birth was documented almost frame by frame. His name was Eric Knudsen. The creature he imagined became known as Slender Man. This week on The Devil Within, Branden Morgan begins a three-part investigation into the first great myth of the internet age, exploring how a pair of manipulated photographs evolved into one of the most influential pieces of modern folklore ever created. More importantly... Why were millions of people so eager to believe? This isn't simply the story of Slender Man. It's the story of how the internet became humanity's newest campfire—and how mythology no longer requires centuries to evolve. In This Episode The horrifying 2014 Waukesha stabbing that introduced Slender Man to the world Why every civilization creates monsters The technological and cultural conditions that made Slender Man inevitable The rise of social media, YouTube, Reddit, and collaborative storytelling The Something Awful Photoshop Contest of June 2009 Eric Knudsen (Victor Surge) and the creation of Slender Man Why the monster's faceless design unsettles the human brain The psychology of the "uncanny" How thousands of strangers transformed one image into modern folklore Themes Explored Digital folklore Internet mythology Collective storytelling The psychology of fear Urban legends Horror history Media culture The evolution of folklore Modern monsters Slender Man Creepypasta Featured Topics The 2014 Waukesha case (introductory context) Eric Knudsen (Victor Surge) Something Awful Forums Photoshop Contest (June 8, 2009) The Uncanny Valley Collaborative internet culture Early social media The birth of Creepypasta Digital mythology The story doesn't end with two manipulated photographs. It begins there. Coming Next Week In Episode Two, When Fiction Escaped the Screen, Slender Man no longer belongs to his creator. YouTube filmmakers, artists, gamers, writers, and millions of strangers begin adding new chapters until something extraordinary happens. For the first time in history... we watch folklore evolve in real time. The Devil Within is written and hosted by Branden Morgan. Produced by Evio Creative.

I interviewed Sarah Silverblatt-Buser about Collective Body on Friday, August 29, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Collective Body: "Collective Body is an interactive, virtual reality experience that invites us to meet ourselves and each other through movement. Set in the middle of a New Mexican storm, participants are guided to rediscover their first ways of engaging with the world, symbolising formative life events that culminate in a shared exploration of our embodied selves. These key moments — beginning alone, discovering the unfamiliar, first encounters, and joyfully moving together — represent how our personal and collective stories are written through movement." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Gain deeper insight into self and Identity [1] and others [7] through embodied movement [1] and dance [5], but also these various archetypal [9] identities [1] within the context of a cultural context [11] - lots of self [1] and other [7] dialectics. "Meet ourselves and each other through movement." Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Embodied Dance experiences, with avatars that are attuned to how your move your body. Set in a New Mexican storm. Avatars have an abstract and symbolic quality to them. Designed to "open us to different sensations of our physical world while creating a new perception of ourselves as individuals within a collective."2nd Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: Emphasis on MOVEMENT and IMPROV -- The specific way in which you move your is analyzed and classified3rd Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Multiplayer and social experience. There's a way to connect to others through movement. The archeteypal classification of the movement is split up into a 4x4 set of categories of 4 different elements (earth, air, water, fire), and then 4 different musical themes that also mirror an increasing amount of energy of the phases of matter. (Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma)4th Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: Strong Emphasis on MUSIC. The Piece itself is a bit more driven by embodied actions and emergenct social dynamics than narrative or story per se. The piece is more about the relational dynamics to yourself and others that unfolds over the course of five different stages 1. BEGINNING ALONE: Discover our world through our hands 2. DISCOVER OUR FIRST MOVEMENTS: Learn how to take our first steps 3. FIRST ENCOUNTERS: How we learn how to move with other people. 4. FIND YOUR AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT: How we learn to reflect and find our own kind of movement. 5. JOYFULLY MOVE TOGETHER: How we dance and join together with other people Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Movement and Social Dynamics - Invidivual versus Collective Journey: "Collective Body asks what it means to experience ourselves in relation to others — without words and beneath the surface. How does a body hold histories over time? How do those histories get expressed and interpreted? How do many bodies create their own ecology?" Artist Statement: "The experience uses virtual reality to open us to different sensations of our physical world while creating a new perception of ourselves as individuals within a collective. We are first guided to reappropriate movement and dancing in our own body, to rediscover our first ways of engaging with the world, before we meet the silent part of ourselves that we express through movement. This otherwise ephemeral self is generated using an algorithmic system that analyses our movement throughout the first two scenes. This self takes the form of an avatar, assigned out of sixteen possible avatars, and is represented as a natural element accompanied by a musical theme. Once we meet this version of ourselves, we are invited to meet another person, then join the rest of the participants, encountering different ways that others exist through movement, mixing together to create a final moment of joyful, collective discovery in dance. Collective Body asks what it means to experience ourselves in relation to others — without words and beneath the surface. How does a body hold histories over time? How do those histories get expressed and interpreted? How do many bodies create their own ecology?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1uOAEL7Do8 This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon. Music: Fatality

I interviewed Fanny Fortage & Harry Clunet-Farlow about Heartbeat – Son Cœur a Trouvé Sa Cadence Dans Le Silence Des Rencontres on Tuesday, September 2, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Heartbeat – Son Cœur a Trouvé Sa Cadence Dans Le Silence Des Rencontres -- "His heart found its rhythm in the silence of encounters.": "HeartBeat is an immersive self-performance that explores emotional relationships through the rhythm of the pulse. This installation offers a non- verbal encounter between two strangers, sharing their pulse. This discussion of pulse carries their emotions into a journey — and perhaps, their heartbeats will be in phase." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Commune with another person [7] via your [1] biometric heartbeats [1] that are represented symbolically [9] and artistically [5]. Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: Cultivates unique Social Dynamics and Eye gazing. You're left to sort of negotiate an encounter with another person. But surprisingly the mode of interaction is completely within this unconscious or sub-symbolic realm where your mental agency is very constrained. It's a lot about the fates of your bodies, and almost by luck whether or not your bodies with synchronize. I suppose there could be elements of skill involved, but overall this is a completely novel type of experience for folks, but also generates a unique encounter with the fellow audience member. No explicit invitation to unpack or debrief the experience, but certainly some audience members connected more afterwards2nd Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Biometric data that is spatialized over time. This is primarily a physical-based installtion where you point of focus is essentially sitting in a chair and looking at the other attendee. The screen is physically behind you, and so it's almost out of your peripheral vision that you see this undulating blob. The goal is to get your blob to merge with you're audience partner's blob by synchronizing your heart beats.3rd Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: Your non-verbal interactions with another person. But also there is a sort of unconscious collective agency where you have to have your bodies synchronize to achieve the goal of uniting the undulating blobs4th Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: The piece is not really story-driven. Overall, a pretty intimate way to connect to another person. In terms of time, it's a fairly quick experience, and lots of time for onboarding the gear. But the structure of the piece is farily linar without too many repeating cycles. The cycles begining or ending depends upon how well or not well synchronized you are with the other person's heartbeat Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Deeply connecting with another person through a shared embodied and synchronized heartbeat. More about the interactions with another person than it is with the technology per se, but the technology is facilitating this deeper and fairly intimate connection Artist Statement: "My heart has a lot of stories to tell... It is quite literally because of — or thanks t — my heart that I became an artist. At the age of twelve, during a film shoot, a microphone picked up the sound of my heartbeat more than my voice. My heart, uncontrollable, overtook the soundtrack. That moment marked a turning point: I would no longer be in front of the camera, but behind it — listening, observing, capturing. A few years later, it was my brother's heart that I watched beating, as he lay in a coma. The electrocardiogram became a link: his rhythm responded to my gestures, to my words. That silent pulse became a language. It moved me deeply. Since then, I have never stopped being fascinated by this involuntary musicality — the heart, this inner signal, fragile and universal. Recently, although I had put these two stories to one side in my memories, I re-experienced this pulse of life — this emotional connection with oneself or others. I napped on my boyfriend's chest, and his heartbeat rocked me; even though it kept me awake, it soothed me and plunged me into a meditative state... I imagined non-verbal encounters where two people would listen only to each other's heartbeats. The only information they would share would be their heart rate: was it synchronised? Or does this immersive interaction make one of their hearts race? By the way, do you think my heart was beating in rhythm with my boyfriend's when I was dreaming up this idea? In any case, I remember that my heart followed my brother's; if his sped up, so did mine." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NceaoEO4has This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon.
