Robinson's Podcast #240 - Peter Godfrey-Smith: Cuttlefish, Octopuses, and the Consciousness of Mysterious Minds Peter Godfrey-Smith is a professor in the School of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Sydney. He has also taught at Stanford University and Harvard University. Among other topics, he has researched the philosophy of biology and mind, and is very well-known for his book Other Minds: The Octopus, The Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness (FSG, 2016). In this episode, Peter and Robinson discuss that book, as well as his latest, Living on Earth (William Collins, 2024). More particularly, they discuss cuttlefish, octopuses, consciousness, metaethics, and animal welfare.

University of Sydney professor Peter Godfrey-Smith, author of the bestselling Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness, discusses how life on Earth has changed our planet, whether there might be life on other planets, and what the future of humanity could look like. Professor Godfrey-Smith's new book is Living on Earth: Forests, Corals, Consciousness, and the Making of the World.

We have become a bit disconnected after COVID but at the same time we are emerging more consciously while we were more complacent before. I hold hope about an inherent belief that collective liberation is a planetary right. I think we should all be always learning to reach that goal.semzyiri is a multimedia storyteller who blends surrealism, existentialism, cosmic wonder, and inner worlds with the lived reality of a neuroqueer cultural nomad. Navigating the crossroads of a world in poly-crisis and of nature divorced from human experience, semzyiri's work captures the intricate dance between the internal and external, offering a unique lens on our interconnected existence.I first met semzyiri at an ‘Ideas, Welcome' Session hosted by the Rideau-Rockcliffe Community Resource Centre meeting about social infrastructure and third places, organised by Luc Lalande and colleagues (see an upcoming episode about him) at the Rideau Community Hub, in Ottawa.We met again by chance at a local eco fair on June 1 2024 where we talked about our common interest in community engaged arts, art and ecology and in social collapse awareness and acceptance. One of the topics that struck me in my conversation was the notion of ‘numbness', which is coming back again and again this  5th season of the podcast, notably in e171 kimberly skye richards - dept of utopian arts & letters (‘one of the roles that artists play within the poly crisis is supporting us through processes of unnumbing'). semzyiri reminds us that : Art is something that really bypasses our walls, our numbness and our overstimulation.After our conversation semzyiri told me more about a new organization of which they are a co-founder called Collaborative Movements, a multimedia amplifier that centres community initiatives through a documentary series, a podcast, a website hub, and community events and that this initiative highlights and supports a network of third spaces, community centres, social enterprises, non-profit organizations, social innovation labs, and more. The idea is to address a diverse range of themes including local arts, sciences, sustainability, community mental health, social housing, food insecurity, IBPOC, 2SLGBTQIA+, and immigrant stories.This is a welcome development in the Ottawa arts and media community, and I hope other communities are creating their own collaborative movements.semzyiri recommends the following publications:Modern Monetary Theory by John Verdon (not yet in print)Shock Doctrine by Naomi KleinOther Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness by Peter Godfrey-SmithThe One by Heinrich PäsWhen Animals Dream by David Peña-GuzmánNote: Link to semzyiri's Substack.  *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESI've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa).

As a member of the South Asian diaspora, I'm humbled by the vast wisdom in our DNA and at our fingertips as evidenced by traditions such as Ayurveda - literally the "science or wisdom of life." I also have great respect for others in our culture who have embraced these holistic modalities to own their health, and have pursued their true dharma or calling in lieu of the limited "doctor, engineer, failure" menu that we grew up with. I was therefore very glad to speak with this week's guest Amish Shah. Amish Shah is a thriving entrepreneur, yoga and meditation expert, and a seasoned filmmaker, who encountered a pivotal health obstacle that served as the catalyst for a profound voyage into the realm of ancient sciences. This journey ultimately led to the creation of Deep Origins, a venture that now touches the lives of 20 million people each month. Amish's latest undertaking, The Natural Law, is an extraordinary documentary and platform that revolves around the principles of Ayurveda. This groundbreaking film documents his personal healing journey while simultaneously delving into the intricacies of the fragmented Western medical system and the transformative potential of achieving harmony among the mind, body, and spirit. In this episode, Amish and I delve into numerous areas, including: How Ayurveda - a South Asian wisdom tradition dating back 5,000 years - provided Amish, then a burnt-out multi-millionaire tech entrepreneur, with an effective means for managing ulcers, fatty liver, celiac disease, and numerous other disorders when traditional medicine had failed him. The power of synchronicity, as illustrated by the chain of events that connected Nikhil and Amish: meeting Dr. Sheila Patel (Chief Medical Officer, Chopra Global) at a Deepak Chopra-led retreat, a random email advertisement of Dr. Patel's appearance on a Natural Law Webinar, and an introduction to Amish How the concept of dharma - the "right way of living" - plays out in the South Asian diaspora, and how falling out of alignment may contribute to "dis-ease." Amish's career spanning several lucrative, but stressful opportunities that wreaked havoc healthwise: financial services in New York City, followed by the launch of several multi-million dollar technology and digital marketing startups in luxurious La Jolla, California The Natural Law - an award-winning documentary created by Amish with hundreds of thousands of viewers, featuring Deepak Chopra, Mark Halpern, Vasant Lad, and many other experts in Ayurveda. The film's roots as a passion project / labor of love that started 10 years ago The next steps for The Natural Law beyond the film, including an online portal with a knowledgebase on Ayurveda, telecoaching services, a tool for finding pracititioners, an interactive community, and a marketplace for Ayurvedic herbs and other products Learn more about The Natural Law by visiting the Website, or connecting on Instagram via the documentary feed or Amish's personal account Connect with Nikhil to learn more about ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Untether Your Life⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and other projects: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

This episode contains: This is a throwback episode to the old times, before the Dark Times when Ben came. Steven and Devon host the show. We talk about the difficulty of scheduling a time for four people to get together consistently, Devon talks about having his neighbors over for dinner and how over-achieving they are, and the cost of success. Although, what is success? Steven is still dealing with sick kids and his own recurring illness. We also read and respond to comments from our Patrons.   Brain Matters: Rats have an imagination, new research suggests. Researchers have developed a novel system to probe a rat's thoughts, finding that animals can control their brain activity to imagine remote locations.  https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2023/11/231102162557.htm Devon also talks about reading Blindsight by Peter Watts and his recent foray into reading about consciousness. Blindsight by Peter Watts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blindsight_(Watts_novel) Other Minds: The Octopus, The Sea and The Deep Origins of Consciousness by Peter-Godfrey-Smith: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Other_Minds:_The_Octopus,_the_Sea,_and_the_Deep_Origins_of_Consciousness   Fire Sale at the Lefttorium: Left-handers aren't better spatially, gaming research shows. By asking participants to download and play a video game that captured user information and tracked navigational challenges, researchers were able to measure demographic data -- including hand preference -- and activity from more than 420,000 international participants, across 41 different countries. They found that left-handers were neither better nor worse than right-handers at the tasks, clarifying a long-running debate about the links between handedness and spatial skills.  https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2023/11/231109121511.htm   Science Fiction: We discuss the season premiere of For All Mankind, which Steven realizes he did not finish. We talk about the alternate history between the last season and this season, the events of the new episode and where the show might be going. We also talk about the first three episodes of this season of Rick and Morty. Devon enjoys the show more on rewatch. Steven then tells us about Lethal Company.

What if there was a healing modality that viewed your body as the perfect healing system that it is?   In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This? Emily is joined by Amish Shah where they explore Ayurveda, an ancient practice used to bring your body into balance.   Amish found his way to Ayurveda when it felt like there was nowhere else to turn.   He was in his twenties making tens of millions of dollars as a stockbroker... and simultaneously suffering from a host of health issues – vitiligo, constant migraines, extreme stomach pain, depression.   When he was 29 he went to the doctor to get a blood panel done and it came back that he had high cholesterol, fatty liver, was pre-diabetic and was near adrenal failure.   At one point he said he was living in a 6,000 sq ft home with a pool on the roof, a theater room, and an elevator. He owned a Ferrari, a Maserati and an Audi.   And yet he was in massive pain, battling severe depression and suicide.   That all changed when he found his way to meditation, yoga, and eventually, Ayurveda.   Now he has launched The Natural Law: A film and global movement committed to bringing Ayurvedic natural healing back to modern life.   By the end you'll be asking yourself, Why Isn't Everyone Practicing Ayurveda?   What part felt like a mic drop moment for you?

Encountering significant health challenges led him to the ancient sciences and the establishment of Deep Origins, a venture now reaching 20 million individuals monthly across various channels, including being featured on Discovery Channel, Travel Channel, Gaia, Dr. Oz, Virgin Unite, and various social media channels. Shah's most recent project is "The Natural Law", a documentary and platform centered on Ayurveda, accessible at thenaturallaw.com. A certified yoga and meditation expert, Shah, who has been featured on Inc. 500's list of fastest-growing companies, devotes his time to aiding others through various courses and a non-profit organization.   https://thenaturallaw.com/ Click here to join the live event!   ===   Ready to start your life-altering Ziva practice?

The study of cognition and sentience would be greatly abetted by the discovery of intelligent alien beings, who presumably developed independently of life here on Earth. But we do have more than one data point to consider: certain vertebrates (including humans) are quite intelligent, but so are certain cephalopods (including octopuses), even though the last common ancestor of the two groups was a simple organism hundreds of millions of years ago that didn't have much of a nervous system at all. Peter Godfrey-Smith has put a great amount of effort into trying to figure out what we can learn about the nature of thinking by studying how it is done in these animals with very different brains and nervous systems.Blog post with transcript: https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2023/09/11/249-peter-godfrey-smith-on-sentience-and-octopus-minds/Support Mindscape on Patreon.Peter Godfrey-Smith received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of California, San Diego.

In the immediate aftermath of the observance of 20 years of the March 19, 2003 invasion of Iraq and the catastrophe that proceeded to take place, we begin a series focusing on the deep origins which will go all the way back to the late 70s. In part one, we read from "The Iraq Sanctions Myth" which details the exaggerated death toll brought by sanctions against Iraq throughout the 1990s, and how this was used to help make the case for invading.

Why is this and where is it all going? In this episode Erik who was part of creating the world's first […]

Deep Origins XIX, nothing but the best selection of deep house tunes!

Welcome ladies and gentleman to another episode of Deep Origins, hope ya'll holdin up well. Here's my 1st offering for 2022, featured some of the music from Iron Rods Music to be released later this year. Enjoy

In this episode Claudia talks to musicologist Martin Ullrich about animals and music. Together they touch on the multiple ways in which music and animals intersect from how animals inspire human music, to how animals make and listen to music, and the ethics of more-than-human musical encounters. They find that the focus on animals and music destabilizes anthropocentric understandings of both culture and aesthetics. Date Recorded: 15 December 2021 Martin Ullrich studied piano in Frankfurt and Berlin as well as music theory in Berlin too. He received his PhD in musicology in 2005. His main research area is sound and music in the context of more-than-human aesthetics (nonhuman animals and music, artificial intelligence and music), with an emphasis on human-animal studies. He has presented and chaired at international conferences and has published on animal music and the relationship between animal sounds and human music. Martin was a professor for music theory at Berlin University of the Arts from 2005 to 2009 and the president of Nuremberg University of Music from 2009 to 2017. Since 2017, he has worked as a professor for interdisciplinary musicology and human-animal studies at Nuremberg University of Music. Find Martin on Facebook and Twitter (@MResearchHAS).   Featured: Human-Elephant Encounters in Music by Martin Ullrich; Animal Music: David Rothenberg, Dario Martinelli, and Martin Ullrich Exchange Their Views on the Topic Minding Animals: Studies and Research Contributions  by Jessica Ullrich;  The Critical Posthumanities; Or, Is Medianatures to Naturecultures as Zoe Is to Bios?  by Rosi Braidotti; Piano for Elephants by Paul Barton on Youtube; The War Against Animals by Dinesh Wadiwell; The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness by Peter Godfrey-Smith; How Musical are Animals by Hollis Taylor; Sound files: Woodland in Late Spring; Piano trio in C minor op.1 no.3 / Beethoven (1905) from the British Library Thank you to  A.P.P.L.E for sponsoring this podcast; the Sonic Arts Studio and SAPLab for sponsoring this season; Gordon Clarke (Instagram: @_con_sol_) for the bed music, Jeremy John for the logo, and Hannah Hunter for the Animal Highlight. 

Do the possibilities for a good life change as you get older, and is a long life desirable? We talk about ageing, health advice for the elderly, life expectancy, families, and the stages of life in early modern Europe. Was it possible to live a good life when old, and if so, good in what sense? This episode's examples are a ballad about an old man neglected by his son and daughter in law, and a brief reflection by the essayist Michel de Montaigne on the Bible verse, ‘To every thing there is a season' (Ecclesiastes 3, 1-8).

Nothing blows the human mind quite like octopus intelligence. Lisa and Ann investigate the powerful charm of the octopus brain. Filled with fascinating facts and the story behind the story of the riveting inter-species love affair in My Octopus Teacher, this episode shows why the octopus has such a suction grip on our imagination. Even if you've read Sy Montgomery's The Soul of an Octopus and watched the 2021 Academy Award Winning documentary, My Octopus Teacher, you will learn a lot more about the strange and wondrous cephalopod mind.  Want to follow up on our sources or watch any of the videos we mention? Go to ThisAnimalLIfe.com and click on Show Notes.  Erlich, Pippa. “Hot Docs 2020 Women Directors: Meet Pippa Ehrlich – “My Octopus Teacher” by Cody Corrall.

In this episode of #LØRN Silvija talks to the innovation manager at NCE seafood innovation, Björgolfur Hávardsson. Hávardsson describe himself as maniacally interested in fish and explains in the episode why we need a cluster and why he believes that without standardization, all technological development and implementation be very chaotic. He goes on to say that there are two main customer groups that standardization is for, those who develop solutions and services and those who use it.— We are good, not only because we have a lot of fish and because we have a coast, we are so good first and foremost because we had the curiosity and the guts to try out something so crazy as taking the salmon in a net pen, he reminds us about in the episode. You will learn aboutWhere the seafood industry want to innovateWhy standardization is importantHow standardization will improve the ability to develop and collaborateRecommended literature:A short story of nearly everything by Bill Bryson (should be a school read for 15 years old). Why we sleep with Mathew Walker, mind blowing. Need to get my act together there. Also, Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness. The podcast Think again!

Dip below the ocean's surface and you are soon confronted by forms of life that could not seem more foreign to our own: sea sponges, soft corals, and serpulid worms, whose rooted bodies, intricate geometry, and flower-like appendages are more reminiscent of plant life or even architecture than anything recognizably animal. Yet these creatures are our cousins. As fellow members of the animal kingdom—the Metazoa—they can teach us much about the evolutionary origins of not only our bodies, but also our minds. In his acclaimed 2016 book, Other Minds, the philosopher and scuba diver Peter Godfrey-Smith explored the mind of the octopus—the closest thing to an intelligent alien on Earth. In Metazoa: Animal Life and the Birth of the Mind (FSG, 2020), Godfrey-Smith expands his inquiry to animals at large, investigating the evolution of subjective experience with the assistance of far-flung species. As he delves into what it feels like to perceive and interact with the world as other life-forms do, Godfrey-Smith shows that the appearance of the animal body well over half a billion years ago was a profound innovation that set life upon a new path. In accessible, riveting prose, he charts the ways that subsequent evolutionary developments—eyes that track, for example, and bodies that move through and manipulate the environment—shaped the subjective lives of animals. Following the evolutionary paths of a glass sponge, soft coral, banded shrimp, octopus, and fish, then moving onto land and the world of insects, birds, and primates like ourselves, Metazoa gathers their stories together in a way that bridges the gap between mind and matter, addressing one of the most vexing philosophical problems: that of consciousness. Combining vivid animal encounters with philosophical reflections and the latest news from biology, Metazoa reveals that even in our high-tech, AI-driven times, there is no understanding our minds without understanding nerves, muscles, and active bodies. The story that results is as rich and vibrant as life itself. Peter Godfrey-Smith is a professor in the School of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Sydney. He is the author of the bestselling Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness, which has been published in more than twenty languages. His other books include Theory and Reality: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Science and Darwinian Populations and Natural Selection, which won the 2010 Lakatos Award.

Dip below the ocean's surface and you are soon confronted by forms of life that could not seem more foreign to our own: sea sponges, soft corals, and serpulid worms, whose rooted bodies, intricate geometry, and flower-like appendages are more reminiscent of plant life or even architecture than anything recognizably animal. Yet these creatures are our cousins. As fellow members of the animal kingdom—the Metazoa—they can teach us much about the evolutionary origins of not only our bodies, but also our minds. In his acclaimed 2016 book, Other Minds, the philosopher and scuba diver Peter Godfrey-Smith explored the mind of the octopus—the closest thing to an intelligent alien on Earth. In Metazoa: Animal Life and the Birth of the Mind (FSG, 2020), Godfrey-Smith expands his inquiry to animals at large, investigating the evolution of subjective experience with the assistance of far-flung species. As he delves into what it feels like to perceive and interact with the world as other life-forms do, Godfrey-Smith shows that the appearance of the animal body well over half a billion years ago was a profound innovation that set life upon a new path. In accessible, riveting prose, he charts the ways that subsequent evolutionary developments—eyes that track, for example, and bodies that move through and manipulate the environment—shaped the subjective lives of animals. Following the evolutionary paths of a glass sponge, soft coral, banded shrimp, octopus, and fish, then moving onto land and the world of insects, birds, and primates like ourselves, Metazoa gathers their stories together in a way that bridges the gap between mind and matter, addressing one of the most vexing philosophical problems: that of consciousness. Combining vivid animal encounters with philosophical reflections and the latest news from biology, Metazoa reveals that even in our high-tech, AI-driven times, there is no understanding our minds without understanding nerves, muscles, and active bodies.

Dip below the ocean’s surface and you are soon confronted by forms of life that could not seem more foreign to our own: sea sponges, soft corals, and serpulidae worms, whose rooted bodies, intricate geometry, and flower-like appendages are more reminiscent of plant life or even architecture than anything recognizably animal. Yet these creatures are our cousins. And, scuba-diving philosopher Peter Godfrey-Smith asserted, as fellow members of the animal kingdom, they can teach us much about the evolutionary origins of not only our bodies but also our minds. In this presentation, Godfrey-Smith joined us with findings from his book Metazoa: Animal Life and the Birth of the Mind. Following his acclaimed book Other Minds about the mind of the octopus, he expanded his inquiry to animals at large. He delved into what it feels like to perceive and interact with the world as other life-forms do. Following the evolutionary paths of a glass sponge, soft coral, banded shrimp, octopus, and fish, then moving onto land, the world of insects, birds, and primates, Godfrey-Smith gathered their stories to address one of the most vexing philosophical problems: that of consciousness.

An eight-tentacled look at the world of the cephalopod, and the way these intelligent sea creatures inspire writers and performers. Peter Godfrey Smith is the author of ‘Other Minds: The Octopus, The Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness'. The book has become a cult classic, introducing many people to the remarkable intelligence of the octopus and other cepahalopods, and asking questions about what the evolution of that intelligence might mean for humans. Peter shares his experience of an incredible cuttlefish display, watching it change colour repeatedly, and shares his sense that cephalopods are often as interested in humans as we are in them. Whilst writing her latest book, Tania Hershman was surprised to find herself with a female octopus as an imaginary friend. Tania reads from her work-in-progress, a poetry collection entitled ‘Still Life with Octopus' in which the poet discovers her octopus reading several books at the same time, and performing feats of flexibility (a sequence partly inspired by reading ‘Other Minds'). Matthew Welton has just published ‘Squid Squad: A Novel' (Carcarnet). Spoiler alert – it contains only one brief reference to a cephalopod, and is not a novel in the traditional sense. Not to be deterred, The Verb detects a ‘squid aesthetic' in Matthew's work, hinted at in the title poem, with its cast of characters who might be said to interact in the manner of a squid's connected but independent tentacles. This week Verb regular Kate Fox has formed a psychic link with ‘Pauline the Octopus'. Pauline is the sister of Paul the Octopus, who famously predicted the results of the 2010 Men's Football World Cup. Pauline is an eminent octopus film reviewer and through Kate offers up her thoughts on the Octopus as represented by humans on celluloid – for which she has coined the word ‘Schlocktopus' This week's lockdown poem comes from Catherine Ayres, who has been considering her complicated relationship with the octopus and has found it offers a useful metaphor for social distancing. The poem features in 'Write Where We Are Now', curated by Carol Ann Duffy and Manchester Metropolitan University. www.mmu.ac.uk/write Presenter: Ian McMillan Producer: Faith Lawrence

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.06.13.150151v1?rss=1 Authors: Smith, W. C., Borba, C., Schwennicke, S., Kourakis, M. J. Abstract: Ciona larvae have two distinct visuomotor behaviors - a looming shadow response and negative phototaxis. These are mediated by separate neural pathways that initiate from different clusters of photoreceptors. We report that input from both pathways is processed to generate fold-change detection (FCD) outputs - making the behavioral outputs reflective of relative changes in input, not absolute input values. Visual inputs from both pathways project first to the posterior brain vesicle (pBV). We find that the pBV shares hallmarks with the vertebrate midbrain optic tectum, including its anatomy, connectivity, function and gene expression - despite previous speculation that Ciona lacks a midbrain. The connectivity and properties (excitatory or inhibitory) of pBV interneurons conform to known FCD circuits, but with different circuit architectures for the two pathways. The negative phototaxis circuit forms an incoherent feedforward loop that involves interconnecting cholinergic and GABAergic interneurons. The looming shadow circuit uses the same cholinergic and GABAergic interneurons, but with different synaptic inputs to create a nonlinear integral feedback loop. Consequently, the two FCD circuits generate different behavioral profiles, with the negative phototaxis circuit resulting in a power-function relationship of behavioral output versus fold-change, while in the dimming response this relationship is linear.

Peter Godfrey-Smith believes that encountering an octopus is the closest we might ever come to meeting an intelligent alien, with its eight tentacles so packed with neurons that they virtually think for themselves. His book Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea and the Deep Origins of Consciousness has been hailed by Talking Heads musician David Byrne as his best read of 2018 and as “entrancing and profound” by the Financial Times. Join the Australian scuba-diving philosopher of science for a discussion of the evolutionary journey of cephalopods, and what it teaches us about the human mind, in conversation with Dr Siouxsie Wiles.

“Mischief & Craft” is the title of Gigi Godfrey’s art show opening Friday, June 7th in the Bainbridge Island Library. The title comes from a chapter in the book Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness by Peter Godfrey-Smith (no relation).  Why did Gigi take the title of her art show from a book about octopuses? She met Eleanora, an octopus, at the Port Townsend Marine Science Center and chose her as a subject. Gigi, formally trained as a cardiac nurse, is drawn to subjects displaying some sort of rhythm—whether in the way the light patterns form, the shapes link together, or the weaving of color harmony. She’s happiest staying loose with the brush and leaving unfinished work to show through—creating a trail of the evolution.  Color and texture are the real appeal for Gigi. “When searching for the right color value and temperature, I tend to leave all the marks on the final work, showing the decision process, which I call ‘painting out loud’”.  You’ll see Eleanora and more of Gigi’s work at the upcoming Library Art Show on Bainbridge Island.  Opening reception is Friday June 7th from 5-7 pm.   Credits: BCB Host: John Fossett; BCB audio editor and publisher: Chris Walker

This week on Sinica, Kaiser and Jeremy speak with Christian Sorace, assistant professor of political science at Colorado College. The three discuss his book, Shaken Authority: China’s Communist Party and the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake, which analyzes the ways the Communist Party uses rhetoric to serve its interests, the consequences of this endeavor for the region and survivors of the quake, and the urbanization of China’s rural areas. Christian spent a year and a half in the region starting in 2012, conducting fieldwork in affected areas via open-ended interviews, ethnographic observations, meetings with leaders of non-governmental organizations and scholars, and analysis of hundreds of pages of internal Party reports. What to listen for this week on the Sinica Podcast: 13:10: Sorace explains why, for a short time in the aftermath of the quake, some perceived the seeds of civil society to be growing: “This activity was limited to a short window of the rescue period in which lives were at stake and time was of the essence. And after this short window of rescue, the reconstruction phase begins, and then the picture changes entirely and top-down control was reasserted.” 18:03: Sorace elaborates on the role of gratitude education (感恩教育活动 gǎn ēn jiàoyù huódong) in shaping perceptions of post-earthquake reconstruction: “Officials would talk about gratitude education as a way of ‘removing psychological obstacles, and returning overly emotional people to a reasonable and rational state,’ so there’s also a kind of control element here.” He then elaborates on the haunting similarities between what happened in the aftermath of the earthquake and the horrors that are occurring now in Xinjiang.   26:32: “Over 7.7 million square meters of urban space was built in the reconstruction. Fifty percent of their entire rural population were moved into cities, so this is a massive expansion of urban space.” Christian reflects on the concept of “utopian urbanization” and his time living in these newly built apartments that housed disaster victims. 39:11: Superfluous slogans, turgid language... Can anything of value truly be gleaned from official language coming from the Chinese state? Sorace explains the significance of rhetoric in understanding the Communist Party: “…to dismiss everything that the Communist Party says, as this empty propaganda actually makes everything that’s going on in China actually much harder to understand. And if we pay close attention and train [our] sensitivity to listening to this ‘Party-speak,’ it actually can tell us quite a bit about what’s going on.” Recommendations: Jeremy: The Epic of Gilgamesh, by father and son duo Kevin and Kent Dixon, a graphic novel version of the original epic. Kaiser: The Vietnam War, by Ken Burns. Christian: Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness, by Peter Godfrey Smith, a look at the nature and evolution of consciousness.

We've read Children of Time (https://amzn.to/2QqYKII), and boy do we have a lot to say about it! This episode we discuss the structure of the book, whether novels need strong characters, how animal consciousness might differ from our own, and how to stock a ship designed to re-seed the human race on another planet. Adrian gets to jabber on about the Baldwin Effect & octopuses, and Matt makes some sharp points about the importance of empathy. Truly this podcast represents the future liberals want.  As always, here's a list of stuff we discuss in the episode. If the links don't show up in your podcatcher, they will on spectology.com. All links are referral links. * Startide Rising by David Brin * The Bees by Laline Paull * The White Bone by Barbara Gowdy * Watership Down by Richard Adams * The Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov * Goedel, Escher, Bach by Douglas Hofstadter  And finally, a few books on consciousness, language, and evolution that weren't mentioned by name, but which Adrian recommends: * Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness by Peter Godfrey-Smith (octopus researcher mentioned)* Adam's Tongue by Derek Bickerton (language evolution & the Baldwin Effect)* The Crucible of Consciousness by Zoltan Torey (language & consciousness) * The Perplexities of Consciousness by Eric Schwitzgebel (essays on the difficulty of introspecting consciousness) * The Ego Tunnel by Thomas Metzinger (laying out the ideas behind the phrase "consciousness is an illusion" for a lay audience) --- We'd love to hear from you, either by chatting with us on twitter at @spectologypod, sending us an email at spectologypod@gmail.com, or submitting the episode to r/printSF on reddit. We'll reply, and shout you out in the next podcast when we talk about your comment.

Dr. Peter Godfrey-Smith is professor of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Sydney and the author of Other Minds: The Octopus, The Sea, and The Deep Origins of Consciousness. We discuss how our distant evolutionary cousins, cephalopods, are challenging ancient assumptions about the nature of consciousness.

Welcome to episode 1 of the hello X podcast! Meet Christine, Anneli and Valentin, your hosts in imagining the lives of the future. The first segment tells the backstory of X and explains the concepts behind the larger project. Find out how X was born in 2011 on a beach (in Christine's mind), and why she went from dramatisations of political violence in the past (and co-directing The Act of Killing) to asking scientists, artists, kids and listeners like you to collectively imagine X, a woman who will be born in 2045. (You can start by checking out the WRITE page on this website). Christine and Valentin talk about why they moved to Tromsø, Northern Norway, how much they love food and how these passions have been channeled into the key question of this year's stories: how might human activity today (CO2, pollution, fishing, agriculture) affect Arctic ecological food webs and food culture for X in 2068? Segment two introduces you to some of the members of the hello X creative team and their answer to the question: What does it mean to have a relationship with the unborn, or future people? Segment three features environmental anthropologist Ann Eileen Lennert. Ann's work features the stories of hunters from Greenland, whom she studied for many years while living in Greenland before moving to Tromsø and becoming the newest member of Ice-9. A big advocate of citizen science, Ann integrates cultural landscapes with natural science and talks about how science can be mixed with stories both old and new, and how stories can help answer natural scientific questions. She also introduces us to the Mother of the Sea. This story was produced by Christine Cynn and Anneli Stiberg with support from Valentin Manz.

It’s our final episode of the year! This week we bring you two book reviews. First up: ”If the Universe Is Teeming with Aliens ... WHERE IS EVERYBODY?" by Stephen Webb. This work analyzes 75 possible explanations to the Fermi Paradox, a conundrum that’s been flummoxing space observers for over 60 years. Next (7:00), we go beneath the ocean for “Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness” by Peter Gregory-Smith. Gregory-Smith is the rare philosophy professor who would rather go scuba diving than sit in an ivory tower. It turns out octopus and aliens have more in common than you might expect… Finally, for all our recent segments in video form (with some extra info added), make sure to check out the Random Talkers YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXnne2uminGtDqMzFZb_U5g.

 Leading philosopher of science Peter Godfrey-Smith dons a wet suit and journeys into the depths of consciousness in his latest book Other Minds. Combining science and philosophy with first-hand accounts of the remarkable intelligence of the octopus, Godfrey-Smith explores how primitive organisms bobbing in the ocean began sending signals to each other and how these early forms of communication gave rise to the advanced nervous systems that permit cephalopods to change colors and human beings to speak. Follow along as Godfrey-Smith shares from his underwater adventures and sheds new light on the octopus brain, the human brain, and the evolution of consciousness.Click here for photos from the program. 

Mars is about to be visited by the first space mission for 40 years which is designed to seek signs of life on the Red Planet. Adam Rutherford talks to Dr Manish Patel of the Open University, a senior scientist on the European Space Agency's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter. Once the spacecraft starts work, it may solve the mystery of ebbs and flows of methane gas in the Martian atmosphere. It may answer whether the gas is being produced by life beneath the planet's cold dusty surface. The American space agency Nasa already has a mission well underway on the Martian surface.. For four years, Curiosity has been exploring the deep geological past of a huge Martian crater and mountain. Recently possible signs of liquid water have been seen nearby. But rather than going closer to study it, Nasa wants the rover to avoid it. Project scientist Ashwin Vasavada explains why. Carlo Rovelli is a theoretical physicist and writer. His latest book 'Reality is not what it Seems' explores the history of thought about the physical nature of the universe and one of the latest incarnations of that great quests - loop quantum gravity theory. He talks to Adam about the fine grain of space and time, and exploding black holes. Palaeontologist Julia Clarke has discovered the oldest fossil of a bird's organ of song, the syrinx. At the University of Texas, Austin the delicate structure turned up in an X ray scan of a 66 million year old bird fossil from Antarctica. The fossil syrinx is so well preserved, it is possible to say what the call of this ancient bird Vegavis would have sounded like. It's also a massive boost in the quest to discover when birds first sang and recreating the dawn chorus back in the Age of Dinosaurs.
