“There's going to be some crazy stuff that happens in the next five to ten years. I think when we look back in ten years, we may see the same amount of change in that ten-year period that I have seen in my last thirty years, which is massive.” -David Hartley There are so many changes happening simultaneously in the world, often happening faster than our ability to process them. It is no wonder so many of us feel overwhelmed. Should we use AI or not, should we work in the office, remotely, or hybrid?  What matters more than understanding everything that is happening in the world, is an understanding of ourselves in terms of how well we embrace or resist change. Some people love to jump into the deep end, and that's okay, but some like to be more cautious in their approach. In the second of a two-part special, David Hartley, a business and technology executive with over 30 years of continuous innovation and leadership, talks about how to achieve the right mix for successful hybrid working, co-creating value and the power of getting intentional about how you create and involve your teams in your business.  If you are afraid of change or aren't sure whether in-office, remote or hybrid working is best for you or your bookkeeping business, this episode spotlights that it doesn't have to be one or the other, there is room for everyone to succeed.

“What would I do, if I could still get my work done, but I had it done five hours faster, or ten hours faster? -David Hartley   There was a time those using the abacus, feared the calculator. It is natural to be nervous and have some fear around evolving technologies, especially at their current pace. But those that lean into these advancements, are far more likely to survive them. And more than just surviving, there are huge opportunities to thrive when we embrace them.   What makes us comfortable, might also be the same thing keeping us from reaching greater heights in our business. If there are tools that can systemize the repetitive, mundane tasks all of us must do to keep things running, why wouldn't we let a capable AI handle them for us?   In the first of a two-part special, David Hartley, a business and technology executive with over 30 years of continuous innovation and leadership talks about the impact of AI on the bookkeeping industry, will discuss the need to embrace, adapt, and overcome the challenges of new technologies, why your advice matters, and what the future will look like.   If you are living in fear of the looming shadow of AI, afraid for your bookkeeping business or job security, this is the episode to help you lean into a pivot towards embracing the future, as it happens.   During this interview, you'll learn...

Cragg Vale es un pequeño pueblo inglés, situado al oeste de la región de Yorkshire. En el Siglo XVIII, y ahora un poco también, estaba aislado, mal comunicado, y rodeado de enormes páramos, que facilitaban que los habitantes pudieran ver con tiempo si se estaban acercando forasteros. Era el lugar perfecto para delinquir.A mediados del siglo XVIII es a ese pueblo al que llega David Hartley, un joven nacido en la región, pero que llevaba años en Birmingham, como aprendiz de herrero. Una ciudad con una incipiente industria de falsificación de monedas, y que según cuenta la leyenda, David habría sido parte de la misma, y en realidad habría llegado a Cragg Vale huyendo de la justicia. El mejor sitio para esconderse.La situación económica de Cragg Vale en la época era muy complicada. Sufría los efectos de la revolución industrial, que afectaba directamente a sus dos principales actividades: las granjas y la industria textil. El comercio de lana, que daba trabajo a mucha gente, vivía un momento delicado.David Hartley decide montar una herrería, un negocio que sirve principalmente como tapadera para sus actividades ilícitas: falsificar monedas. La táctica empleada era conocida desde hace siglos, recortar los bordes de las monedas de oro, y después limarlas, antes de devolverlas a la circulación. Después, fundían las virutas de oro recolectadas, junto con otros minerales más básicos y de menor valor, para producir metal para producir nuevas monedas falsas.Eran falsificaciones de altísima calidad, que pasaban perfectamente desapercibidas entre las desgastadas monedas británicas de la época. Las piezas fraudulentas copiaban a las francesas, las españolas, y sobre todo las portuguesas, con un diseño mucho más fácil de imitar que los ingleses. Además, eran consideradas de curso legal, por el fuerte comercio entre los países implicados, y por la escasez de guineas británicas.La banda de Hartley no está sola. Cuenta con el apoyo de la comunidad local, que como decíamos, estaba viendo una situación económica muy delicada, e incluso con la colaboración de funcionarios corruptos. La asociación para ellos era muy beneficiosa, ya que a cambio de prestarles monedas para que fueran recortadas, recibían una pequeña compensación. Cualquiera que ayudara a los acuñadores, como se conocía a la banda, ganaba un poco de dinero, lo que elevó su popularidad, y hizo que Hartley fuera conocido como 'Rey David', y considerado como una especie de Robin Hood.También contaba con el apoyo de los taberneros de la zona, que eran los encargados de poner en circulación las monedas falsificadas. En su momento álgido, la banda llega a contar con 80 miembros, de Cragg Vale, pero también de pueblos de alrededor. Y producían a una escala casi industrial.A finales de la década de 1760, se estima que habían puesto en circulación monedas falsas por valor de 3,5 millones de libras. Hoy equivaldría a unos 750 millones de euros, lo que le convirtió en el mayor fraude de la historia de Reino Unido. Los efectos fueron desastrosos, provocando una devaluación de la libra del 9%, y está a punto de hacer colapsar la economía británica.

Yorkshire born actor, Samuel Edward-Cook made his screen debut in the BBC One series LAND GIRLS, before landing the role of Danny Whizz-Bang in the highly acclaimed and BAFTA award-winning crime drama PEAKY BLINDERS alongside Cillian Murphy, Joe Cole and Helen McCrory. Other television credits include the ITV miniseries BRIEF ENCOUNTERS, the ITV anthology series INNOCENT, the long-running BBC series SILENT WITNESS, and the Channel 4 comedy-drama PURE. Samuel will soon appear playing Ceri Davies in BETTER, a BBC series by Sister Pictures, the production company behind THIS IS GOING TO HURT, CHERNOBYL and GANGS OF LONDON, among many others. The crime drama follows a corrupt police detective who undergoes a major moral awakening and makes amends of her wrongdoings of the past. The series will also star Leila Farzad (I HATE SUZIE), Andrew Buchan and Anton lesser. Also in 2023, Samuel will play Isaac Hartley in Shane Meadows' highly anticipated BBC drama THE GALLOWS POLE, based on the novel of the same name by Benjamin Myers. Loosely based on true events, the six-part series set in 18th century Yorkshire will recount the rise and fall of David Hartley and the Crag Vale Coiners. The series will also star Michael Socha (PAPILLON), George Mackay (1917), Thomas Turgoose (THIS IS ENGLAND), Tom Burke (THE SOUVENIR) and Sophie McShera (DOWNTON ABBEY). As well as his screen credits, Samuel has numerous theatre credits, including BOYS for Headlong, directed by Robert Icke, Matthew Quintal in Richard Bean's PITCAIRN directed by Max Stafford-Clark, TITUS ANDRONICUS at Shakespeare's Globe, Edmund in Lucy Bailey's contemporary adaptation of KING LEAR, staring David Haigh and portraying Captain Wentworth in the Royal Exchange Theatre production of PERSUASION. His performance as Haimon in Ivo van Hove's production of ANTIGONE alongside Juliette Binoche attracted rave reviews, with theatre critic Stephen Collins praising his “passion” and "extraordinary range of emotions”. The play itself was described as “undeniably impressive” by The Independent and as a "production that combines a sombre aesthetic beauty with a sense of the ambivalence at the heart of Sophocles's play” by The Guardian.

We've made a brief sidestep into TV for the first half of episode #41 because we are joined by the wonderful Andrew Brenner, Headwriter of the CBeebies show Pablo. For the uninitiated, Pablo is an animated show about an autistic boy and his imaginary animal friends and has been a staple of CBeebies since 2017. Andrew talks us through how the show came to be, how it developed, and the importance of working with autistic performers. Three particular episodes of the show are discussed, all of which are freely available to view on BBC iPlayer: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b097bs09/pablo It's also worth mentioning that we have previously featured one of the voice actors from Pablo, the brilliant artist Sumita Majumdar who joined us for episode #23 to talk about Being Frank: The Chris Sievey Story. Do scroll back through our archive to find it! Following the Pablo chat, Andrew, Janet, Alex and Georgia move on to discuss the 1971 Hal Ashby film Harold & Maude. The film's two outsider protagonists are considered in autistic terms, as is their unusual age-gap relationship. Empathy comes under examination, which is found to be lacking in the stiff typical characters that surround the central pair, before the discussion turns to how the two central characters buck the conventions of gender expectations. Towards the end, Andrew gives a shout-out to our crossover episode with Talking Images in which co-host David Hartley talks about another of Ashby's films about an outsider: Being There. Here's the link to that episode: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0ACULrwtGxYWM867qPxpdU Huge thanks to Andrew for joining us!    

¿Cómo se reconoce un billete falso? ¿Qué características tiene? ¿Qué hay que hacer si nos encontramos uno? La falsificación de dinero es una actividad, ilegal, tan antigua como el propio dinero. Hay quien denomina esta práctica como "el segundo oficio más antiguo del mundo". A lo largo de la historia, han surgido numerosos estafadores que han tratado de imitar monedas y billetes con todo tipo de materiales y técnicas. Y es un problema que afecta a la economía y a la sociedad.En realidad, la falsificación de dinero es incluso más antigua que el propio dinero, ya que, en tiempos de los mayas, cuando el cacao era utilizado como una especie de moneda para los intercambios comerciales, se han encontrado fraudes. Lo que hacían era eliminar la almendra de la vaina, y en su lugar la rellenaban con tierra, lodo o cáscara de aguacate.Tan pronto como se acuñan las primeras monedas, allá por el año 600 a. C., en Grecia, comienza el fraude. Que se extiende, básicamente, hasta que aparecen los billetes, cuya falsificación es mucho más rentable. En el caso de las monedas, el método de falsificación más común era mezclar metales baratos con oro o plata.Otra práctica habitual era la de disminuir el peso de las monedas, recortando o limando los cantos que quedaban tras la acuñación. A estas monedas se las conocía como monedas cercenadas, porque tenía menos cantidad del metal precioso principal, y por lo tanto, menos valor que la legal. Esta práctica suponía un auténtico problema para la sociedad, por la inflación que generaba.Otro método más rápido, pero cuyo resultado era mucho más burdo, fue la de hacer copias exactas de las monedas originales, pero usando moldes de arcilla o yeso. Fue muy popular en la época romana, por lo rápido y barato que era, peor también era más fácil de detectar, por las imperfecciones o incluso por el sonido que hacía al caer, que era diferente a los originales.Por último, también estaba la técnica conocida como el bañado, una falsificación en la que el interior de la moneda se sustituía por un metal base de inferior valor, y luego se recubría con una finísima capa de metal precioso, para imitar las monedas auténticas.Gobiernos de todo el mundo trataron de hacer lo que estuviera en su mano para frenar estas prácticas fraudulentas. Por un lado, implantando medidas de seguridad, como por ejemplo el cordoncillo que se aplicó a los bordes de algunas monedas, y que luego fue perfeccionándose, para evitar el limado. Pero lo principal eran las sanciones y castigos que aplicaban, como medida disuasoria.Las condenas eran las máximas, como se puede comprobar a lo largo de la historia. El emperador chino Gaozong, en 1162, promulgó un decreto para castigar la falsificación con la muerte, que también incluía recompensas para los informantes. En Inglaterra, una pareja, Thomas y Anne Rogers, fueron condenados en el siglo XVII por recortar 40 monedas de plata. Él fue ahorcado y descuartizado, y ella quemada viva. Mientras que un informante permitió detener a David Hartley, el último falsificador de monedas inglés, ahorcado en 1770.En los nacientes Estados Unidos la pena por falsificar monedas también era la muerte. El castigo era tan severo porque se consideraba que la falsificación era una amenaza contra la seguridad del Estado. Menos contundente fue el emperador romano Justiniano con Alejandro, 'el barbero', que cuando fue detenido, en vez de ejecutarlo, lo utilizaron para sacar partido a sus habilidades falsificadoras. En España, la pena de muerte para los delitos relacionados con la falsificación de dinero estuvo vigente hasta 1822, cuando se sustituyó por la cadena perpetua.La gran revolución en el campo de la falsificación de dinero llega con la aparición del papel moneda. Es en China, donde se inventa este formato de pago, donde también aparecen las primeras falsificaciones. Aquel 'dinero volante', como le llamaban por su escaso peso, ya tenía en el siglo X un sistema de circulación muy bien estructurado. Los billetes se fabricaban con papel moneda que obtenían, entonces, del árbol de la morera. Los bosques estaban rodeados de guardias para controlar que los falsificadores no pudieran acceder fácilmente a este papel, que hacían mucho más sencilla su labor.A pesar de las medidas disuasorias, y de los graves castigos establecidos, la falsificación nunca se detuvo. Calculan los expertos que, en Estados Unidos, por ejemplo, en la primera mitad de siglo XIX, la mitad de dinero en circulación era falso, a pesar de que muchos billetes venían con la frase "falsificar es la muerte". Se ve que no era suficiente freno para los estafadores. Por aquella época, la prensa empezó a publicar artículos en los que se daban las instrucciones para detectar los billetes falsos.Pero el fraude era global. Entre el siglo XIX y principios del siglo XX, fueron muchos los países que se enfrentaron a graves casos de falsificación. España, y sus duros sevillanos; Portugal y la crisis de los billetes de 1925; Hungría y los francos para vengar la I Guerra Mundial...En la misma línea, durante la II Guerra Mundial, Alemania planeó un ataque contra Reino Unido, un proyecto que se conoció como 'Operación Bernhard'. La idea era falsificar 30.000 millones de libras, lanzarlos sobre Inglaterra desde el aire, y provocar así un colapso de su economía. El plan se truncó una vez que los impulsores del plan cayeron en desgracia ante los ojos de los líderes nazis. Pero el dinero falsificado, de una calidad excelente, casi indistinguible de los originales, se utilizó para financiar operaciones de la inteligencia alemana.En esta guerra entre buenos y malos, uno de los grandes éxitos de los estafadores fue el caso de los superdólares. Se considera que son las mejores falsificaciones de la historia, por su grado de calidad y similitud con los dólares originales. Eran tan perfectos que ni siquiera los servicios secretos eran capaces de establecer si eran auténticos o falsos. Utilizaban la misma tinta de cambio de color, de alta tecnología, y estaban impresos en un papel con la misma composición de fibras que los originales.Estas imitaciones, que empezaron a circular en 1980, se distribuyeron por todo el mundo, y en los 2000 seguían localizándose. Aún en 2013 entró en circulación un nuevo billete de 100 dólares, con nuevas medidas de seguridad para tratar de frustrar la falsificación.Existen discrepancias sobre quién estaba detrás de esta operación, pero desde Estados Unidos siempre señalaron a Corea del Norte como responsable de este fraude.La llegada del euro también supuso un cambio de paradigma en la falsificación, ya que muchos estafadores se especializaron en la nueva moneda. Tanto, que, en la primera década del siglo, en Estados Unidos, detectaron una importante caída de los dólares falsos.Cada año, el BCE retira cientos de miles de billetes falsos de circulación. Y recuerda los perjuicios que causan estas estafas, que van desde la reducción del valor real del dinero, por sus consecuencias sobre la inflación, al haber más dinero disponible; el descenso en la aceptabilidad del papel moneda, al perderse la confianza en su autenticidad; las pérdidas para empresas y personas que, sin saberlo, tengan en su poder dinero falso, ya que no pueden recuperar su valor ni utilizarlo; y por último, son un método de financiación de actividades ilícitas, como el crimen organizado o el terrorismo.Luchar contra las falsificaciones es una función clave de las autoridades, para proteger la estabilidad económica.

For nearly two decades and across five albums, https://www.premierguitar.com/artists/the-war-on-drugs-driving-music-for-the-american-dreamscape (The War on Drugs)' founder and frontman Adam Granduciel has narrated our complex modern lives while his band has scored our dreams. The captivating moods of their music, much like us, morph from dense melancholy to saturated, swirling madness and everywhere in between. Granduciel often layers his Springsteen-meets-Young proletariat prose atop a post-rock soundscape, but the heartbeat of their impressive, expansive live shows is their gear and how it is implemented. “I could play the whole tour with two or maybe three guitars—a https://www.premierguitar.com/gear/1958-gretsch-6136-white-falcon (White Falcon), Strat, and maybe a Jazzmaster—but I bring all these out just for fun,” he says with a laugh as he considers his trove of axes. So, let's have some fun already! Before a full evening of The War on Drugs' jams in support of 2021's I Don't Live Here Anymore, PG was invited to Nashville's historic http://ryman.com/ (Ryman Auditorium). We covered Granduciel's growing guitar collection, got the skinny on how Jerry Garcia's monstrous setup played into the bandleader's theatre rig, and we took in a cockpit view of his stompbox squadron full of tone ticklers, sizzlers, and wigglers. In addition, bassist David Hartley showed off a trio of Ps, an armada of Ampegs, and demo'd a fuzz that has ended his quest for razing tones.

In our very first cross-over episode we are joined by (Dr.) David Hartley from the Autism Through Cinema podcast to discuss Hal Ashby's classic "Being There", starring Peter Sellers in a role generally read as being on the autism spectrum. We'll explore why it makes some of us a little uncomfortable, whether the film mocks Peter Sellers' character or the, mostly, wealthy individuals he interacts with,  attempt to decipher the message, try our best to unpack that infamous ending - and just explore our general reactions. We will also hear from David about what Being There gets right (if it is indeed about a neuro-divergent character), hear about the Autism Through Cinema project as a whole and why their podcast and why it is worth checking out.

The 12th Century polymath abbess Saint Hildegard von Bingen is the subject of our film this week via Margerethe von Trotta's compelling historical drama Vision. We're joined again by special guest Gemma Williams for whom Hildegard von Bingen has been something of an 'autistic special interest' for a while. We consider the themes of feeling othered and outcast, but also the strength those positions give for the forging of an individual path. We're careful to not retrospectively diagnose Hildegard as autistic, but reflect on the importance of identifying historical figures who may have been neurodivergent for the project of neurodiversity in the present day. Hildegard is a quietly revolutionary figure who stands up against the stringent rules of her day, and subsequently becomes a figurehead for the similarly neurodivergent seeking a place in the world. Following this idea, we soon identified another neurodivergent candidate in the film in the form of Hildegard's obsessive follower, Sister Richardis. A shout-out as well to the musicians Lingua Ignota and Hildegard von Blingin' who we think our listeners might enjoy following this discussion! In today's episode you heard Dr Gemma Williams, John-James Laidlow, Ethan Lyon, and Dr David Hartley. Contribute to our discussions or suggest future episodes at cinemautism@gmail.com     

Do you like pineapple? If memories could be canned, would they also have expiry dates? Chungking Express asks a lot of questions of us and of itself, and we wonder how it fares when interrogated from an autistic perspective. We find that this dreamy, genre-bending, love story about longing, loss, and chance encounters is soaked with neurodivergence, from Cop 663's consideration of the emotions of the objects in his flat, to Faye's stimmy dancing and repetitive taste in music. We also enjoy Kar-wai's aesthetic choices as he darts between frantic camerawork and slow-motion tableaus, and a soundtrack to die for. Basically, quite a few of our regular hosts cherish this film as one of their all-time favourites and we have a great time discovering it anew. It was lovely to welcome back Lillian Crawford for this recording, who is joined by Janet Harbord, John-James Laidlow and David Hartley.

Welcome to the terrifying dystopia of Terry Gilliam's astounding sci-fi fever-dream Brazil. Our special guest this week is Neurocultures Collective member Benjamin Brown who offers Gilliam's cult classic as an exploration of the maddening labyrinth of neurotypicality endured in the form of social etiquette, bureaucracy, and conformity. We are thrilled by how the richness of the mise-en-scene rewards repeated viewing, and the entertainment value of the madcap performances of Jonathan Pryce, Michael Palin, and Robert De Niro. We reflect on how the film questions what typicality is, and what it means to suddenly feel like the outsider - and what might be discovered in that outsider position. We also draw attention to autistic forays into satire, including the wonderful 'Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical (ISNT)', as archived here: https://erikengdahl.se/autism/isnt/ Small apologies for the slight loss in sound quality in this recording - we had a bit of trouble with Benjamin's microphone, but hopefully you'll still be able to hear his contributions, especially if you listen through headphones. Joining Benjamin are the regular hosts David Hartley, Janet Harbord and Alex Widdowson.

The Reason I Jump is the most contemporary film we've covered so far, and we were glad to be able to sit in actual cinema auditoriums to watch this complex and fascinating documentary. We enjoyed the audiovisual treats of the film, we appreciated the international outlook, and acknowledged how unusual it is to see minimally-verbal autistic individuals on screen. But we had plenty of questions about how the narratives of autism are presented. We address some of the controversies surrounding Facilitated Communication, while also reflecting on whether the film has been made for a neurotypical audience and, therefore, may just be another in a long line of voyeuristic films about the condition. Are the subjects infantalised? Should the scene of meltdown have been included? Is there too much Othering going on? Our discussion generates a lot of questions, but we still find elements of the film that we will continue to value and treasure. A fascinating discussion! The Reason I Jump is available to rent on YouTube, Google Play, and Amazon, among others. It is directed by Jerry Rothwell and based on the book of the same name by Naoki Higashida, translated by David Mitchell. Discussing the film in this episode are Janet Harbord, John-James Laidlow, David Hartley and Alex Widdowson.   

We take to the racetrack and speed, drift and power our way through the colourful world or Pixar's Cars this week, as brought to us by special guest Ash Loydon. Ash is an autistic illustrator and huge film fan, and his enthusiasm for the exploits of Lightning McQueen and Mater are utterly infectious. We reflect on what it is about the smooth edges and expressive faces of John Lasseter's cartoon vehicles that appeals to Ash and his autistic family, and how such franchise can appeal to the tendencies of autistic people to take pleasures from collecting and collating memorabilia. We also enjoyed the sensory world in the lovingly created landscapes of the film, and considered how the careful pacing appeals to the autistic mindframe. We consider the cars themselves as living objects, and greatly enjoyed the depth of the fantasy of the extended world. Ash Loydon's art can be seen on his website http://ashsarthole.blogspot.com/ and follow him on Twitter for his latest news: https://twitter.com/AshtonLamont Joining Ash today were John-James Laidlow, David Hartley, Janet Harbord, and Alex Widdowson.

We take a grisly turn this week with a foray into the violent, haunting, and dangerous world of Dario Argento via his bizarre 1985 giallo horror Phenomena (known as Creepers in the US). Jennifer Connolly stars as an american schoolgirl adrift in a Swiss academy while a brutal killer stalks the wilderness outside. We were intrigued by the eponymous phenomena of telepathic insects and enjoyed the film's brief considerations of insect minds as a form of neurodiversity. We also enjoyed Argento's signature cinematic energy as a potential expression of autistic sensory intensity, but we struggled with the excessive violence and ableism of the film's final melodramatic act. We also gave due consideration to the chimpanzee Inga, who we all agreed was the film's finest actor...   Our extra special guest for this episode is autistic researcher, musician and beekeeper Dr Gemma Williams. We loved having Gemma on the show and we would urge you all to check out her research papers and her brilliant musical output. You can find links to all of Gemma's work here: https://linktr.ee/DjzemaLouiz Alongside Gemma, you also hear the thoughts and opinions of our regular hosts John-James Laidlow, Janet Harbord, and David Hartley.

We welcome special guest Natalie Marcus to the podcast, who brings along the curious romantic comedy Lars and the Real Girl (2007) for discussion. The film depicts a shy and socially awkward man played by Ryan Gosling who buys himself a sex doll, calls it Bianca, and treats it as his real girlfriend. Rather than a gratuitous and crude sex comedy, or a saccharine depiction of an autistic outsider, we were surprised to find a gentle and careful film that does an honest job of exploring alternative social existence. We talk around themes of social rehearsal, the animism of objects, and the incorporation of neurodiversity into communities. There are some concerns raised around the patriarchal control that Lars has over Bianca, but we welcomed the way the film attempts to show how learning important social lessons around gender can be enriching. On this recording you hear Natalie Marcus, David Hartley, John-James Laidlow, Georgia Bradburn and Janet Harbord. Have any thoughts on this film?

Peter Robinson's documentary Asylum places a film crew within an experimental psychiatric home set up by the radical psychiatrist R.D. Laing, where they observe and interact with the schizophrenic patients who live there in the late 60s. The Autism Through Cinema team discuss the film in relation to the anti-psychiatry movement, counter-cultural ideologies, and the ethics of film crew intrusion into the lives of the documentary's subjects. We reconsider the footage in the light of the neurodiversity paradigm, and bring many of our own personal and familial experiences with care institutions to bear on what we've encountered in Robinson's film. We wonder about Laing's own charisma and authority in his brief appearances, while also linking our thoughts out to other films that feature 'asylums' like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and Girl, Interrupted. Finally, at the last moment, glamour model Katie Price makes an unexpected appearance. Content warning: we do discuss experiences within psychiatric institutions, so please take care if this is an issue for you. In this episode you hear Alex Widdowson, Janet Harbord, David Hartley, and Georgia Bradburn. 

In this very animated episode, the team turn their attention to a pair of SparkShorts from Pixar that deal directly with autistic experience; Float (2019) by Bobby Rubio, and Loop (2020) by Erica Milsom. Followng this, they pull apart the imagery, metaphors and characters of Adam Elliot's stop-motion feature length film Mary and Max (2009). They consider what animated film can do for the depiction of autism that is not as easily acheived in live-action, while also debating the ethics of working in collaboration with real autistic individuals. Loop, for example, features the vocal contributions of minimally verbal actor Madison Bandy, while Mary and Max was directly inspired by Elliot's real-life autistic penpal. We also consider the depiction of trauma, the relationship between autism and age, and the use of caricature and the grotesque. In this episode you hear Janet Harbord, Alex Widdowson, John-James Laidlow, Georgia Bradburn and David Hartley.

We've addressed concerns in past episodes about autistic characters being portrayed by non-autistic actors. Well here, with Rachel Israel's romantic drama Keep the Change, we get the opportunity to enjoy a film with a predominantly autistic cast. Brandon Polansky plays David, an aspiring filmmaker whose life takes an unexpected turn when he's assigned a partner from his Community Centre workshop in the form of the vivacious and energetic Sarah, played by Samantha Elisofon. We find the presence of non-professional autistic actors to be a refreshing and exciting change from the norm, while also delighting in the representation of autistic individuals as deeply emotional and romantic. There were some concerns about how we were supposed to relate to David as a character who makes a number of distasteful decisions, but we were utterly charmed by his beau, Sarah, played with such energy and verve by Elisofon. We consider the representation of learning difficulties in relation to Sarah's misunderstanding of jokes, as well as the exploration of autism in relation to gender. Keep the Change is being screened as part of our Autism and Cinema season on Tuesday 28th September at 6pm. There will be a talk hosted by Steven Eastwood and the Neurocultures Collective afterwards, and tickets are still available on the Barbican website: https://www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2021/event/keep-the-change-screentalk If you have any thoughts or comments about this episode, feel free to email us on cinemautism@gmail.com On this episode you hear David Hartley, Janet Harbord, Georgia Bradburn and Alex Widdowson  

This week, we have a special guest episode from the Autism Through Cinema podcast. David Hartley, Georgia Bradburn, John-James Laidlow, and Ethan Lyon look back on the films they've featured so far and discuss everything from autistic characters on screen to how filmmakers can make film sets more inclusive to whether there's an autistic aesthetic for filmmakers. We'll then hear from Professor Janet Harbord and filmmaker Steven Eastwood about the Autism Through Cinema research project at Queen Mary University. Autism and Cinema: An exploration of neurodiversity takes place in the Barbican Cinemas from Thu 16-Tue 28 Sep 2021.

In Mick Jackson's TV film Temple Grandin, Claire Danes shines in the title role, portraying one of the world's most famous autistic women. Temple is shown to be a formidable force of nature as she takes on the professors of her college, and the workers of the feedlot where she will eventually design her famous cattle chute system. We discuss how the film makes use of animation techniques to offer a visualisation of Temple's way of 'thinking in pictures', although we reserve concerns that this may essentialise autism a little too much. We consider Temple in relation to her gender as a strong female character in many very masculine environments, and what impression this leaves us for thinking through autistic femininity. Temple Grandin will be screened on the 16th September at our Autism and Cinema season at the Barbican, London. The film will be followed by a short pre-recorded interview with the real Temple, and then a Q&A with podcast host Dr David Hartley, and Dr Bonnie Evans, author of The Metamorphosis of Autism. Tickets are free and can be bought from the Barbican website: https://www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2021/event/temple-grandin-pg-screentalk If you have enjoyed this episode, please leave us a comment or feedback, or get in touch on cinemautism[at]gmail.com

The podcast takes a queer turn as we link up with Sally Potter and Tilda Swinton and Virginia Woolf through Potter's exuberent time-bending period drama, Orlando. We enjoy the film's take on the artifice of society, which we connect with the autistic way of viewing the often nonsensical neurotypical world. Swinton's intimate fourth-wall-breaking gaze befriends the autistic viewer in a wry nod of collaboration, but also evokes the spectre of eye-contact which has such an emblematic status in the world of autism. We also take some time to reflect on the theory of the 'neuroqueer', as explored by Remi Yergeau's influential book Authoring Autism and Nick Walker's blog neuroqueer.com, via the film's timeless questioning of gender binaries and boundaries.  If you have any thoughts or comments on this episode, send us an email at cinemautism@gmail.com In today's episode you heard Georgia Bradburn, John-James Laidlow, David Hartley, and Janet Harbord. 

This week, Georgia can barely contain her excitement about making us watch not one but two David Lynch films. We get up close with the angst-ridden Henry of Lynch's debut feature film Eraserhead while taking a brief detour through his earlier short film 'The Grandmother' from 1970. We wonder whether Lynch is contrary for the sake of being contrary, or if there's some deeper expression of divergence going on in his weird and wonderful worlds. We enjoy both films for their take on the idea of 'matter out of place' - a phrase which asks us to question why certain substances and fluids are considered dirty or taboo. However, we also tackle some darker and more difficult areas including incest, child abuse, and violence - so do proceed through this episode with caution. It's worth noting that we will be screening Lynch's Mulholland Dr. (2000) at our Autism and Cinema season at the Barbican in September. The event will be preceded by an introduction from Georgia herself, and tickets can be grabbed via the Barbican website: https://www.barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2021/event/mulholland-drive-15-introduction Your hosts for this episode are David Hartley, Janet Harbord, John-James Laidlow, Alex Widdowson and Georgia Bradburn.  

We welcome special guest PhD student Ethan Lyon to the podcast, who brings along the 1942 horror classic Cat People for our scrutiny. Starring Simone Simon in the lead role, this moody horror noir folows Serbian immigrant Irena who believes herself to be a descendant of an ancient tribe of persecuted people who metamophorsize into bloodthirsty panthers when aroused. Ethan asks us to consider whether Irena might be understood through the lens of autism as a societal outsider who struggles with a number of sensory challenges, while forever under the scrutiny of the psychoanalytic gaze. We also discuss the legacies of historical events upon a person's identity, the Gothic in relation to the construction of mental health, and the often whimsical association of cats with autism, and dogs with neurotypicality. Huge thanks to Ethan for joining us for this episode. The other discussants here are Alex Widdowson, Janet Harbord, David Hartley, Georgia Bradburn and John-James Laidlow.

A sci-fi film, based on Michel Faber's novel and set in Glasgow, follows Scarlet Johansson as a nameless alien recently arrived on earth to prey on men and harvest their organs. The discussion considers whether Johansson's character offers an outsider's view of neurotypicality that is close to that of autism, looking on at a world of perplexing social rituals of seduction and consumption, or whether a suggested affinity between autism and a character who is alien is problematic. Also debated are the topics of posthumanism, feminist alien abduction of the male species, the film's ethnographic style of filming ‘humankind', Glasgow and white working-class culture, compassion between male characters, and the exploration of sexuality and gender as alien concepts. Discussants: Georgia Kumari Bradburn, Janet Harbord, David Hartley, John-James Laidlow, Alex Widdowson. Email us your insights at: cinemautism@gmail.com

Varda's film explores the history and contemporary practices of gleaning (picking up leftovers after the act of harvesting), putting digression at the centre of its approach. Following wherever intuition and coincidence lead, the film becomes a non-linear accumulation of stories and objects. The discussion considers whether Varda is a trickster figure in her style of striking up ‘stranger familiarity', and whether it is a film of peripheral outsiders or a display of how different people are everywhere. A particular resonance with autism is its celebration of monotropism and special interests, which leads to a debate of whether filmmaking in itself can be seen as a type of autistic hyper-focus. Discussants: Alex Widdowson, David Hartley, Georgia Kumari Bradburn, Janet Harbord, John-James Laidlow, & Vicky Thonton. Email us your reactions to cinemautism@gmail.com

For this episode, we do something a little different and host a discussion with up-and-coming UK-based writer Dave Hartley. Based in Manchester, England. Dave Hartley is a writer of science fiction and fantasy stories and fairly recently published his latest story called 'Pigskin', which is somewhat of a modern take on George Orwell's 'Animal Farm'.Dave's Works and Interests As well as discussing his Phd, Dave Hartley also discussed some of his works of fiction. Some of the focus was on one of his most recent releases, "Pigskin", a dark, twisted fable about the horrors of industrial farming. It's available from the wonderful Fly on the Wall Press, which has published many other science fiction works, and other speculative fiction. Dave's very much a writer who draws on what he believes in. For example, he's an enthusiastic and dedicated animal rights activist. But we chose to stick with what we know most about, and further explore depictions of autism within the world of science fiction, within books and also in film and TV, too. Autism Within Science FictionDave's favourite film is the fantastic Blade Runner (1982), from the wonderful Ridley Scott. His theses focuses on how it may well be a narrative concerning autism. Consequently, we considered other characters that might also be codified representations of autism. The obvious ones included Spock (Leonard Nimoy) and Data (Brent Spiner), from the Star Trek franchise. But there were other interesting characters too, that emerged during the conversation. But we don't want to tell you everything we discussed, you can listen for yourself. If you've some of your own favourite representations, then by all means leave us a comment and let us know what you think. You can keep up with up and coming releases by Dave Hartley on his website and blog. His latest collection, "Incorcisms" is out now. If you're interested in autistic representation, Dave runs Autism Through Cinema, his ongoing podcast series freely accessible on his site. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Aronofsky's first feature film is discussed in terms of its closeness to autistic meltdown, an affect that appears rarely in film, driven by the character's fascination with patterns, a propensity for maths as the language of the universe and a magical number. Computers feature heavily in the film, debated as either a potentially problematic alliance between autism and automatism, or possibly autistic attention to the material world and its many capacities. The film's ending proves controversial: does it suggest that lobotomy is the only way to end suffering for Max, that there is no place in this world for neurodiversity? Discussants: Georgia Bradburn, Janet Harbord, David Hartley, Alex Widdowson. Email us your thoughts at cinemautism@gmail.com

The discussion of Chloé Zhao's second feature film addresses the fine line between fact and fiction with actors playing themselves. We debate whether autistic sister Lily (Lily Jandreau) is the only free character in this western set in the badlands of South Dakota, resistant to the demands of the hyper-masculine patriarchal world of rodeo and refusing the trappings of femininity by cutting up a bra her father buys her. There's also debate about whether difference is drafted into the film as story markers or plot points, the problematic treatment of animals (particularly horses), and the potentially cliched idea that there's affinity between animals and autistic people. It's also worth noting that this episode was recorded before Zhao won the Best Picture and Best Director Academy Awards for Nomadland (2020), just in case you were wondering why we don't mention it! Discussants: Georgia Bradburn, Steven Eastwood, Janet Harbord, David Hartley, Alex Widdowson.

Jack the Ripper has dominated the consciousness of the British public and crime fiction since the Victorian era.  In late 1888, 5 gruesome murders occurred in London’s Whitechapel and the legend of the Ripper was born.  The man on his trail was the surgeon and pathologist Thomas Bond, an expert in forensics and the medical detective who wrote the world’s first criminal profile. Mary Ann Nichols (found August 31, 1888), Annie Chapman (found September 8, 1888), Elizabeth Stride (found September 30, 1888), Catherine Eddowes (also found September 30, 1888), and Mary Jane Kelly (found November 9, 1888).  These women were the tragic victims of these appalling crimes.This was the beginning of serious pathology and the initial steps into unravelling the minds and behaviour of criminals and killers.  Thomas Bond was a classic Victorian, a man who had been at the front during the Austro-Prussian war, who prided himself on riding to hounds with every hunt in England and whose suggested cure for depression was a pint of burgundy and a pint of champagne on alternative days of the week.  His was a world of grime discoveries and Holmesian like sleuthing.  Yet time, injury and the dark aspects of his work were to take their toll.  Bond became a laudanum addict and in 1901 threw himself to his death.  His pioneering work laid the foundation for police forensics and offender profiling today.So it GoesTom Assheton & James Jackson Reading by David Hartley of Dr Thomas Bond's police report and profile of Jack the RipperSee also:https://www.instagram.com/bloodyviolenthistory/https://www.jamesjacksonbooks.comhttps://www.tomtom.co.uk If you enjoy the podcast, would you please leave a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes, Spotify or Google Podcast App?

MTX Contracts is a construction and engineering firm based in Wilmslow which provides modular building solutions for the NHS and private healthcare clients. Managing director David Hartley talked to Place North West reporter Dan Whelan about how the business has evolved from providing cold storage units for the frozen food sector, the changing face of healthcare in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and why modern methods of construction are becoming increasingly popular. Questions asked in this episode: • What exactly are modern methods of construction? • What are the benefits of off-site construction? • What does the future of modular construction look like post Covid-19? • Why should healthcare clients consider using the services of a company like MTX over traditional building firm? Main takeaways: • Modern methods of construction provide a fast-track, greener, alternative to traditional construction • The idea that modular buildings are somehow less structurally sound than traditionally constructed buildings is a myth • By constructing wards and operating theatres off-site, disruption to the day-to-day running of hospitals is minimised • Modular units can be easily adapted to suit the evolving nature of hospital treatment • 85% of MTX's revenues come from the NHS
