Episode 178 Chapter 37, Contemporary Software and Synthesis. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music  Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast.

Send us a textIn this candid conversation, Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll joins Joe to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to modernize a military while staying grounded in soldier-level feedback. From wrestling with “irrationality and stupidity at scale” in the Pentagon to launching the Army Transformation Initiative, Driscoll shares why he's flipping tables—sometimes almost literally—to give soldiers the tools and trust they need to win the next fight. In this episode, they explore:How a 15-year “gap decade” in law, finance, and private equity enriched Driscoll's return to uniform and deepened his respect for everyday soldiersThe Army Transformation Initiative—delivering critical warfighting capabilities, optimizing force structure, and eliminating waste and obsolete programsA Fort Jackson drone drill where recruits with just five weeks in the Army changed training doctrine—proof that innovation starts at E-1Seasons vs. “work-life balance”: why high-tempo service demands conscious trade-offs at home, and how Driscoll keeps perspective as a husband and dad of twoThe IED-factory raid where rules forbade cutting a $2 padlock, and what it taught him about broken feedback loops in combatConcrete ways leaders at every level can accelerate change: send honest ground-truth up the chain, embrace small-unit credit-card innovation, and demand that processes serve soldiers firstWhether you're a private, a Pentagon staffer, or a curious civilian, this episode offers a front-row seat to the Army's most ambitious overhaul in decades—and a master class in leading large-scale change without losing sight of character, family, and the people who do the fighting.Daniel P. Driscoll is the 26th Secretary of the Army, sworn in on February 25, 2025. He leads the Army's efforts in operations, modernization, and resource management for nearly one million Soldiers and more than 265,000 Army Civilians.A former Army officer and business executive, Driscoll brings a diverse background in military service, law, and the private sector.

Please enjoy this encore of Career Notes. Lieutenant in the US Navy and Skillbridge Fellow at the CyberWire, Brandon Karpf, knew he wanted to join the military at a young age. He achieved that through the US Naval Academy where he was a member of the men's heavyweight rowing team. Commissioned as a cryptologic warfare officer, Brandon was sent to MIT for a graduate degree where he experienced the exact opposite of the Naval Academy's highly structured life. Brandon's later work with both NSA and US Cyber Command helped him gain experience and cyber operations skills. As he transitions from active duty to civilian life, Brandon shares his personal challenges and struggles during that process. Through the DoD Skillbridge Fellowship program, Brandon's transition has him sharing his skills with the CyberWire. We thank Brandon for sharing his expertise and his story with us.

Commissioned a Marine second lieutenant on November 8, 1967, G.M. Davis arrived in Vietnam less than a year later to lead a rifle platoon against the North Vietnamese Army in the northernmost province of what was then the Republic of Vietnam. In his deeply personal book, My War in the Jungle: The Long-Delayed Memoire of A Marine Lieutenant in Vietnam, 1968-69, Davis brings to life the relentless heat, the worry, the responsibility he carried and the daily grind of firefights, battles, victory, and death. Contact with the enemy was frequent, and the chaos of even a small fight was daunting. Davis also examines the political reality of the time, arguing that the war was lost before it began, but that the nation kept fighting and losing soldiers so politicians could look strong and keep their jobs.With his tour of duty completed following two serious injuries, Davis went on to earn a law degree at the University of Florida and was appointed to the federal bench as a US Magistrate Judge.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

In this powerful episode of Shat the Movies, hosts Gene Lyons and Big D, Dick Ebert, journey down under to revisit Peter Weir's 1981 war drama Gallipoli. Commissioned by listener Mac in Texas, this Australian New Wave classic stars a young Mel Gibson and Mark Lee as two spirited athletes drawn into the brutal realities of World War I. The Shat crew reflects on how Gallipoli flips the traditional war movie formula, building deep emotional connections with its characters long before the first shots are fired. From the dusty outback to the trenches of the Dardanelles, Gene and Big D dissect the film's themes of friendship, blind patriotism, and the gut-wrenching cost of war. They also explore how the film balances coming-of-age charm with historical tragedy—right up to its final freeze frame. With heartfelt insights, personal stories, and a few unexpected laughs along the way (yes, venereal diseases and desert treks come up), this episode reminds us why some war films hurt in all the right ways. Plot SummaryGallipoli is a 1981 Australian war drama directed by Peter Weir and starring Mel Gibson and Mark Lee. Set during World War I, the film follows two young sprinters from Western Australia—Archie and Frank—who enlist in the Australian Imperial Force and are eventually sent to fight in the doomed Gallipoli campaign. Through their journey, the film explores themes of friendship, national identity, disillusionment, and the tragic futility of war, culminating in one of cinema's most unforgettable endings.

Sermon by Rev. Sam McGlothlinFor our current sermon series - Up Close: Encounters with the Risen LordScripture Reading: Matthew 28:16-20

18th May 2025 - Derry City. Ministered by Pastor Ryan Penn.

ESB is once again running guided tours at Ardnacrusha Power Station in Co Clare this summer, offering the public a rare opportunity to explore one of Ireland's most significant engineering landmarks - free of charge. School group tours will take place from 22 May to 30 June with public tours beginning July 1 through to 5 September 2025 (weekdays only). Each tour provides a fun, engaging and informative experience, tracing the story of electricity in Ireland from the station's origins in the 1920s to ESB's modern-day commitment to renewable energy and reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2040. Brendan Shine, Plant Manager at Ardnacrusha, said: "All the staff working here at Ardnacrusha are delighted to once again open the gates of the station to school groups and the public so they can get an insight into the workings of our great station, and the contribution it has made to the country's economic and social history. Our guides will ensure this is a memorable experience for all and we encourage anyone interested to book early." Visitors on the 90-minute guided tour will learn how Ardnacrusha revolutionised life in Ireland and continues to play a vital role in ESB's sustainability strategy. Participants will also gain insight into some of the cutting-edge renewable energy technologies being adopted by the organisation. Ardnacrusha Tour Details: School Group Tours: 22 May - 30 June 2025 Public Tours: 1 July - 5 September 2025 Days: Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays) Duration: Approx. 90 minutes Group Size: Up to 30 people Bookings are essential and can be made at www.esb.ie/ardnacrushatours, where visitors can also find accessibility information and check available dates. Commissioned in 1929, Ardnacrusha was the centrepiece of the Shannon hydro-electric scheme - a visionary project that symbolised Irish independence and industrial ambition. Constructed by 5,000 workers over four years, the scheme cost over IR£5 million, the equivalent of 20% of Ireland's GDP at the time. With an initial capacity of 86 megawatts, it was enough to power the entire country. Today, Ardnacrusha remains operational, contributing around 2% of Ireland's total electricity supply. Visitor Feedback: "I'm a mom of three kids - 14, 11, and 6 - and we all found the tour incredibly interesting. We were actually disappointed when it ended - we wanted it to go on longer! The guides were very knowledgeable and answered every question with ease." "A great tour. Very informative, guides are very knowledgeable on all aspects of the tour. Witty, funny, and interactive. There was a wide diverse age group on our tour and all was catered for. It starts on time, don't feel rushed throughout the tour. Highly recommend this experience."

Prepare for warp speed as Gene Lyons and Big D travel back to the 24th century—and then to 2063—to review Star Trek: First Contact, the Next Generation crew's darkest and most action-packed cinematic outing. Commissioned by listener Jeremiah as part of a sci-fi classics series, this episode dives deep into the ethics of Picard's command decisions, the practical (and impractical) nature of Borg assimilation, and the horny weirdness of Star Trek fandom. Along the way, Gene and Big D debate Star Trek vs. Star Wars and ponder whether the Borg Queen really does have big “ASMR energy.” They also address critical questions like: What's the best Star Trek tech? And how many wipes does it take to remove Data's synthetic skin? Whether you're Team Trek or Team Wars, this episode is a hilarious, no-holds-barred deep dive into one of the franchise's most beloved films—and possibly its most awkward. Plot Summary In Star Trek: First Contact, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the USS Enterprise-E defy Starfleet orders to confront the Borg, a cybernetic collective intent on assimilating Earth. After destroying a Borg cube near Earth, a Borg sphere escapes through a temporal vortex, altering the past to prevent humanity's first contact with alien life. The Enterprise follows the Borg to April 4, 2063—just before Zefram Cochran's historic warp flight that would attract the Vulcans. As the crew works to ensure history stays intact, Picard battles his trauma from past assimilation, while Lieutenant Commander Data is seduced—emotionally and physically—by the sinister Borg Queen. With humanity's future hanging in the balance, Picard must choose between revenge and reason, culminating in a high-stakes confrontation aboard a compromised Enterprise.

We talk about bridging the gap between who you are and who God created you to be. But how do you know who God created you to be. It starts by recognizing that we have been commissioned by God. Pastor Ryan begins Volume 2 of our series on the Epic Story of Scripture by examining the opening words of Joshua and what it means for us to be Commissioned by God in our lives today.

What does digital sovereignty mean in the age of cloud computing, and is Europe finally prepared to rethink its reliance on foreign infrastructure?  In this episode, I speak with David Michels from Queen Mary University of London about his latest research, which examines the growing demand for sovereign cloud services across Europe. Commissioned by Broadcom but developed independently, the report surfaces at a time when regulators, enterprises, and policymakers are all asking tougher questions about who controls data and how. David explains why the concept of a sovereign cloud is still poorly defined. Depending on who you ask, it might mean autonomy over data, protection from foreign surveillance, or strategic independence from global superpowers. That ambiguity creates confusion for customers and raises compliance risks in regulated industries. My guest also addresses one of the most persistent misconceptions in the market: the difference between data residency and data sovereignty. Just because data is stored in Europe does not mean it is immune from foreign access if the provider falls under another country's jurisdiction. We dig into the practical implications of these issues, including why many organizations are reassessing their risk exposure, particularly in light of extraterritorial legal frameworks like the US CLOUD Act. David outlines a pragmatic approach to improve clarity without waiting for new legislation. His proposed GDPR-aligned code of conduct would allow cloud providers to transparently demonstrate compliance with European data protection expectations, giving customers a stronger basis for trust and accountability. This conversation is not about cloud theory. It is about legal risk, operational impact, and policy direction. Whether you're a CIO navigating compliance, a regulator shaping guidance, or a provider building cross-border services, this episode offers a clear-eyed look at the shifting demands of digital sovereignty. Are European organizations finally ready to take a different path in the cloud?

In Matthew 28:16–19, Jesus meets His disciples on a mountain. They worship, yet some doubt. He claims all authority and sends them, imperfect as they are.Jesus doesn't wait for perfection — He sends us in our doubt and imperfection. Mission isn't out there, it's where you already are: home, work, school. You don't need to feel ready. Just go.Jesus is with you. And that's enough.Support the show

How does Jesus approach his fearful disciples on the evening of that first Easter Sunday? Does he scold them? No, he brings a word of comfort. He calms them with the peace that only He can give. That same unending, unchanging peace is also ours because of Jesus' Resurrection. The peace that He gives us both calms our hearts and emboldens us to share the Good News. Just as Jesus calmed and commissioned his disciples, he also calms and commissions us to boldly proclaim this life-changing truth: He is alive!Vicar Behm's sermon preached at Faith on April 27, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

Attorney Kurth Brashear doesn't shy away from addressing the challenging governance issues facing the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod today. Drawing from his extensive experience in both church leadership and legal practice, he offers a candid assessment of how the church's governance structures sometimes hinder rather than help our shared mission.• Developing a heart for church mission comes from understanding that God wants all people to be saved• The "clearinghouse concept" facilitates sharing of synodical resolutions across districts to improve communication• Prior approval process lacks transparency, leading to mistrust and uncertainty within church leadership• Many church leaders fear speaking openly about opportunities for improvement due to potential repercussions• Term limits for synodical officers would remind us that no one is irreplaceable in God's mission• Current electoral system gives equal weight to congregations regardless of size, creating representation imbalances• Commissioned ministers' voices need greater recognition in church governance and decision-making• Primary focus should remain on the 98% we agree on rather than the 2% where we differ• Healthy organizations handle difficult conversations well rather than avoiding themThe Balance of GrayGod, doubt, and proof walk into a podcast... it goes better than you'd expect!Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!

Jesus Followers Are “Commissioned" to “Make Disciples” and Not to Become Members of an Exclusive Holy Club MESSAGE SUMMARY:  We need to welcome new excited Followers of Jesus as members of our Non-Exclusive global fellowship as Followers of Jesus. Those of us who have been brought up in the church or have been in the church for a while can get caught up in our perceived personal righteousness. We get used to the presence of God and His peace in our lives. However, we then encounter a new Followers of Jesus. These new Christians, before their conversion, were living in the ways of the world without God's peace. Now, these new believers are so excited with their new life; however, their outward manifestation of their conversion may not “fit” with our personal Christian behavioral norms. Sadly, too many modern Christians judge and condemn these new, excited believers for their enthusiasm rather than loving, encouraging, and embracing these new Followers of Jesus. We can learn from Jesus' rebuke of the Pharisees, who exhibited similar non-supportive behavior of Christians in Matthew 5:20: “For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Father, when I read even part of the story of Job, I too am overwhelmed by your “wildness.” Your ways and timing are beyond me. Job moved from hearing about you to having “seen you.” Lead me, Lord, on a pathway so that I too can pray as Job prayed: “My ears had heard of you, but now my eyes have seen you” (Job 42:5). In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 89). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Insensitivity. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Gentleness. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

A lot of the talk about AI focuses on how human AI is. Can it write like me, draw like me, sing like me? What we need to be concerned about, however, is how AI makes us less human. Kenya has become a hub for companies that recruit African workers to do the content moderation and data labeling microwork that AI depends on — and yet workers and their often inhumane conditions are hidden.Commissioned by Project Ether, Until Everyone Is Free produced a special podcast episode highlighting how AI technology is just the latest stage of a long story of capitalism. But, as with all other stages, there is worker resistance too.
