Send us Fan MailMeghan Rawlins is a licensed coach, professional horsewoman, and internationally certified course designer, and the owner of Cedar Vista Stables in Victoria, British Columbia. A lifelong rider, she competed in the hunters, jumpers, and eventing from a young age before launching her professional equestrian career in 1993, apprenticing under top professionals — including Claudia Cojocar — as she developed her craft.Rawlins discovered course design early in her professional life, first lending a hand at local Vancouver Island shows in exchange for entries so she could ride more horses. Encouraged by veteran FEI course designer and show organizer Peter Holmes, she pursued her certification through Equestrian Canada and went on to sharpen her eye at the sport's highest levels, including time spent assisting at Spruce Meadows. Today she is certified as both an Equestrian Canada and USEF course designer.In 2022, Rawlins reached a career milestone by earning her FEI Level 3 course design certification — placing her among only a handful of designers in Canada to hold the credential and distinguishing her as the only woman in the country, and one of very few women in North America, to achieve it. That same year she designed the hunter, derby, and equitation courses at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto — Canada's largest and most prestigious horse show — building 15 to 20 courses across its nine days while also assisting with the jumper classes.theplaidhorse.comThank you so much for joining us today on the Plaidcast.

The next episode of A Collection Of… Spaces is with multidisciplinary designer & maker Dharma Taylor.We met in Coal Drops Yard and walked along the Regent's Canal towpath, talking about the different spaces that have shaped Dharma's practice. Without a fixed studio space at the moment, Dharma works between home, teaching, shared workshops and the spaces she finds herself in.Her practice moves between furniture, textiles and objects, with a particular interest in natural materials, colour, texture and the relationship between making and the environment. We discussed how working closely with other makers allows Dharma to learn new skills, develop ideas and bring them into finished objects. This includes her transition from fashion into furniture during lockdown, learning carpentry through a remote collaboration, and later working with Christopher Farr and Paul Smith.We also talked about research, her residency with Iniva and the Stuart Hall Library, and the importance of building your own archive through books, conversations, observations and everyday experiences. Alongside this, we discussed teaching, motherhood, community and the idea of creating objects that can outlast us and carry a sense of permanence and legacy.Enjoy!https://www.instagram.com/dharmataylor/- - -If you would like to contribute to this series then please feel free to get in touch.

From Passenger List sound designer Mark Henry Phillips, Light Box — a season-long investigation into what AI is doing to music and the people who love it. What happens when a machine can do the thing you thought made you, you? Composer Mark Henry Phillips logs onto an AI music generator expecting slop. Instead... he has an existential crisis. What it made wasn't slop -- it was good. Really good. This plunges him into a year-and-a-half long rabbit hole. He discovers -- with help from Sonarworks' Helmuts Bēms -- that professional musicians are secretly adopting AI like performance-enhancing drugs. Mark also digs into how these tools actually work with AI researcher Maya Ackerman. And he confronts an uncomfortable question: if a machine can replicate your creative instincts, were they ever really yours to begin with?For more info go to www.LightBoxPodcast.com.

An invitation to K-12 educators to reimagine their roles through the transformative lens of design In Educators as Designers, Jim Gaona Ellis draws on Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and the latest UDL guidelines to position teachers as creators, innovators, and problem-solvers, empowering them to craft classroom experiences that are not only accessible, but also inspiring, inclusive, and responsive to every student's unique needs. This timely and original book challenges readers to see themselves not just as implementers, but as architects capable of reshaping learning cultures and opportunities for all students. At the heart of this work is a practical toolkit that seamlessly bridges powerful design concepts--such as affordances, choice architecture, hostile design, and the design cycle--with everyday classroom realities. Gaona Ellis offers engaging vignettes, actionable strategies, and a concrete change management framework that honor teachers' expertise while guiding them to collaborate, ideate, and iterate solutions. The book doesn't shy away from addressing systemic inequities, instead arming educators with the language, habits, and mindset to foster learner agency, equity, and belonging--regardless of external constraints or shifting DEI mandates. More than a guide, this is an invitation to innovate, co-create, and lead. With storytelling at its core and a focus on practical impact, this book will inspire educators and school leaders to bring fresh clarity, delight, and possibility to their practice--one designed solution at a time.Jim Gaona Ellis is an educator, consultant, and storyteller exploring the intersections of culture, belonging, and instructional design.Caleb Zakarin is CEO and Publisher of the New Books Network.

Hey board gamers, we are back in the Gumbo Pot, but this time, we are chatting with the designer of one of our favorite games of 2025, MAP MASTERS designed by IAN BACH & CEDRICK CAUMONT and published by CAPTAIN GAMES.  MAP MASTERS is a lively little "five card dungeon run" game that has a puzzle aspect, some real time stress, the joy of designing and running a dungeon and a tiny bit of personalization to your own special powers. It's fantastic!  Ian shares us the story of coming up with the design, some of his hobbies, working with the legendary Mike Fitzgerald, and his recent plays of LORD OF THE RINGS: TRICK TAKING GAMES.  Plus, there's some lagniappe, as BJ and Ian talk about a potential digital version of MAP MASTERS and discuss their current ENVIE games.  So sit back with a loaded Chivito sandwich and a nice warm cup of Mate, and enjoy another episode of Lagniappe!  Laissez les bon temps rouler!

Is the intelligent design movement a short-lived phenomenon that has come and gone? Or is its steady and consistent growth evidence of a flourishing scientific program? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid concludes his conversation with Dr. Casey Luskin about his critique of a recent book called Designer Science that portrays the ID movement as a short-lived political, cultural, and religious phenomenon that has produced little new research in the last two decades. In Part 2, Luskin turns to another major problem: Designer Science almost entirely ignores the last twenty years of ID scientific research and novel arguments. As the book gets retracted by the publisher, Luskin corrects the record in this conversation. This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation. Source

AI PCB routing only works when the tool understands your design intent, and in this OnTrack Podcast episode Zach Peterson sits down with Alain-Sam Cohen and Nabil Chouba of InstaDeep's DeepPCB to find out what that actually takes. They explain why classic autorouters fail on configuration rather than on routing, how a reinforcement-learning routing engine paired with Cooper, a natural-language orchestrator, detects net classes, decoupling caps, reference planes, and USB impedance problems before a single trace is drawn, and where LLM-driven PCB-as-code tools fit alongside placement and routing.  Then they open one of Zach's own boards live, let Cooper flag what the design file left unspecified, and compare it with a run they let converge before the show. If you've watched a one-line AI prompt produce an epic hardware fail, this is the case for task-based AI in PCB design and the design knowledge you still need to bring to it.

The sermon explores the concept of beauty as a divine hallmark of God's creation, arguing that true beauty is defined by appropriateness, symmetry, and harmony rather than mere aesthetic preference. By examining scientific principles such as the structure of peacock feathers and the mathematical elegance of nature, the speaker illustrates how these features point to an intelligent Designer rather than random evolution. The message contrasts the temporary satisfaction found in earthly beauty with the eternal longing for divine presence, citing Psalm 27 and C.S. Lewis to emphasize that only God offers lasting fulfillment. Furthermore, the sermon addresses the theological paradox of the cross, explaining how the ugliness of Christ's sacrifice becomes the ultimate source of beauty and salvation for believers. Ultimately, the speaker encourages the audience to view the natural world as a witness to God's care and to recognize their own transformation into Christ's image as a process of becoming more beautiful in His eyes.

Former Harper's Bazaar editor and Chanel executive Annie Meyers-Shyer joins the podcast! Annie became an "accidental influencer" after launching her Instagram account, @thisoakhouse, to document the renovation of her family home. Now, she's sharing her thorough research, design tips, and beautiful editorial photography in her debut book, This Oak House. Annie chats with Caroline and Liz about how her fashion background translates to interiors, her most agonizing design decisions, and why you should absolutely video your walls before the drywall goes up. Prep with Purpose: Before meeting with her architect or designer, Annie would send a short bulleted list of functional needs (e.g., "plug in a drawer for a hair dryer") alongside a highly curated Pinterest board to establish a clear visual and written narrative. The Magic (and Torture) of Paint: Paint was one of the hardest decisions for Annie. To get an accurate read on a paint sample, paint it onto the actual material of the wall (like beadboard vs. plaster), remove any blue painter's tape that might cast a colored shadow, and pull up pink floor coverings like Ram board. Cohesive Finishes: To keep her home feeling connected, Annie selected a short list of materials—like wood floors and marble—and simply rinsed and repeated them throughout the house. Working with a Designer: Be completely honest about what kind of client you are going to be. If you want to be deep in the weeds and highly collaborative, tell them upfront so you can ensure your working styles are a match. Also, never underestimate the value of hiring kind people. Record Your Walls: Before the drywall goes up, walk through your home and take a video on your phone. Knowing exactly where the electrical and plumbing are hiding behind the walls will save you massive headaches if you ever need to make changes later. The Case for the Formal Living Room: Annie purposely designed her living room to be a TV-free, adult-focused space. While her kids are allowed in the room, it brings her joy to have one space in the house that stays exactly how she left it. The Nancy Meyers Connection: Annie's mother is legendary filmmaker Nancy Meyers, known for her coveted movie sets. Annie notes that the magic of those movie homes is deeply tied to the complex characters, the wardrobe, and the story being told, which is a great reminder that your own home should tell the story of the people living inside it.

The day before sitting down with Chloe Malle and Nicole Phelps on Vogue's The Run-Through podcast, Paloma Elsesser hosted a backyard barbecue for 35 people at her Brooklyn home, complete with a trio of homemade mocktails and a grill helmed by her little brother. That same thoughtfulness carries into her sixth year judging the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, a role she says she was the first model ever invited to take on. Elsesser described pushing the panel toward conversations about inclusivity across age, gender expression, and body type alongside the harder commercial questions about scaling a business. She likes to pair a practical question with an emotional one. “I remember my business manager asked me this question about money. Instead of ‘Let's get you rich,' it's like, ‘What do you want this money to do for you? What world do you want it to create for you?' And it shifted my perspective about the work that we do.” Elsesser said. Elsesser also discussed fronting Vogue's shopping newspaper this season, styling the story herself with her longtime friend and stylist Allie. “I think now that we're kind of phasing out of the quiet luxury era, which was fine and beautiful and really authentic to some people,” she said. “But I also feel like it sanitized a lot of people's personal identities, and so I'm happy to represent for the kooky crazies.” Her own uniform mixes hard and soft references in equal measure, an instinct she traced back to years of scouring archive sales for pieces that actually fit. Unable to find trousers cut for her body early in her career, she built a signature look around Dickies and Chanel flats, a mix of workwear toughness and ballet-flat polish that still anchors how she dresses today. Nearly a decade into her runway career, Elsesser said designers have grown more comfortable working with a range of body types, but she's grown tired of the reflexive stretch-knit dress or jacket offered to curvy models by default. “I don't really like the word lazy, because I don't think designers are lazy. But I think that there's a fear. And then it's kind of like ping-ponging what fashion is comfortable putting us in.” Her closing philosophy, offered as advice for navigating fashion month and the discourse that comes with it: “The number one central tenet to anything that I try and live and encourage, is to  think critically, not be critical.” Plus, we take you along for a studio visit with CVFF finalist Miss Claire Sullivan! The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Today's episode takes us into the world of a brand that is making real waves in menswear and outdoor clothing. I'm joined by Andrew Todd as known as Todd, Head Designer at Finisterre, a brand born in Cornwall with the ocean at the heart of everything it does. We talk about Todd's journey into design, how his career developed, and what ultimately brought him to Finisterre. We explore how the environment, the ocean and the Cornish way of life have shaped the brand's identity, and how those influences translate into the clothing they create. This is one of the most, heartfelt conversations I've had. Todd opens up about his approach to menswear, the journey that has brought him to where he is today, and what the future could hold for Finisterre and himself. There's something beautifully connected, about the way Todd describes design, nature and the ocean almost like an ecosystem where everything has its place and works together. A conversation about menswear, creativity, purpose, the ocean and building something that feels truly connected to where it comes from. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

Is intelligent design dying out or just warming up? On this ID The Future, host Andrew McDiarmid welcomes Dr. Casey Luskin to a new and improved podcast studio for a sit-down, in-person conversation! Today, Dr. Luskin discusses a recent book called Designer Science that portrays the ID movement as a short-lived political, cultural, and religious phenomenon. Luskin reveals some egregious errors in this purported comprehensive history of ID. First, a made-up quote from Michael Behe used to support one of the book's major premises. Second, some glaring omissions, including a number of scientific breakthroughs and developments from ID scientists in the last two decades. This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. Look for Part 2 next! Also available in video format on our YouTube channel! Source

In this episode of Learning for Good, I break down three practical shifts nonprofit learning designers can make to build credibility and grow their influence.Many competent learning and development professionals feel like their recommendations don't carry weight. It's frustrating to know you understand a problem and can offer a better solution, only to have that expertise go unheard. That gap usually has less to do with skill and more to do with how much evidence you've given people that you can be trusted.I explain why credibility isn't something you announce, it's something you build one interaction at a time until people trust your judgment enough to follow where you lead.▶️ 3 Small Shifts that Increase Your Credibility as a Learning Designer▶️ Key Points:00:00:00 How Credibility Works in Nonprofit Leadership00:03:26 How to Build Trust Within Your Nonprofit00:05:31 3 Shifts that Increase Credibility as a Learning Designer00:08:55 How Credibility Changes Stakeholder Buy-InResources from this episode:Join the next Learning for Good Summit in October: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/influence-to-actionJoin the Nonprofit Learning and Development Collective: https://www.skillmastersmarket.com/nonprofit-learning-and-development-collectiveConnect with HeatherLinkedIn: Heather BurrightWebsite: skillmastersmarket.comBook an interest call with Heather here.⭐Was this episode helpful?

The news segment begins with reports that Hideo Kojima's Physint project was canceled by Sony before eventually landing at Xbox, sparking discussion about Sony's shifting priorities. The guys then react to rumors that the next PSP successor may feature USB‑C, 4K/120Hz, and even 8K output — an unexpectedly powerful handheld concept. Next, they break down the growing controversy around Microsoft's Xbox Disc‑to‑Digital program as Ubisoft and Square Enix opt out, raising questions about publisher cooperation and long‑term preservation. Meanwhile, Sony faces intensifying backlash over its physical disc phase‑out, with reports that the company threatened to cut off customer support and pursue legal action amid harassment claims — all while insisting it will move forward with its no‑disc strategy despite lawsuits.

To wrap up the episode, the Inflation Deflation Game of the Week features a review of Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom on NES, as John and Ryan revisit the quirky adventure classic and evaluate its current market value.

What does it really mean to be an interior designer? Is it simply choosing beautiful colors, furniture, and finishes? Or is there something much deeper happening when we step into a client's home and ask them to trust our professional judgment?In this episode, I sit down with Tamera Gamble of Arranged Space, an interior designer, educator, mentor, and longtime design professional whose career has taken her from high-end residential design to commercial, municipal, retail, and residential projects. Her story is a wonderful reminder that interior design is both a creative career and a technical, human-centered profession.I especially loved Tamera's commitment to making good interior design accessible to real people, regardless of their budget. Whether you're working on a luxury residential project, helping a client make a few changes with $1,000, creating construction documents in AutoCAD, or simply solving a difficult space-planning problem, the fundamentals still matter. Your job is to make the space work for the person living in it.And sometimes, doing that means telling a client no.Featured GuestTamera Gamble is the founder of Arranged Space, an interior design business focused on creating thoughtful, functional spaces that reflect each client's style and budget. Her career in interior design spans residential, commercial, municipal, retail, and historic preservation projects, including work with prominent firms such as Ralph Lauren, Gruzen Sampton, and Goldenstein Hill and West. Tamera earned her BFA from the New York School of Interior Design and has developed a particular passion for space planning, technical drawing, and using design to make everyday spaces work better for the people who live in them. In addition to practicing interior design, she teaches at the New York School of Interior Design and has spent years mentoring aspiring designers, helping them build their skills, confidence, and portfolios.What You'll Learn in This Episode✳️ Why interior design requires technical expertise✳️ How to confidently stand behind your recommendations✳️ Why continuing education matters throughout your career✳️ How to make good design accessible✳️ Ways to build experience and your design portfolioRead the Blog >>> The Real Work of a Professional Interior DesignerNEXT STEPS:

3D printing promised to reinvent how we make things, but it's mostly stuck producing prototypes with a high level of waste. Designer and TED Fellow Schendy Kernizan found a different way — by printing objects directly into a tub of gel. He explains how this technique eliminates the constraints of gravity, pushing the limits of how we can manufacture objects across medicine, fashion, space travel and more.Following his story, pulled from a short film he made for TED, Kernizan speaks with Lily James Olds, director of the TED Fellows program, on where this fascination with making things first came from. They talk about what kind of objects Kernizan's is most excited to build, how he overcomes setbacks, and what keeps him motivated. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

PCB assembly mistakes rarely start on the factory floor; they start in layout, and in this OnTrack Podcast episode three assembly-side veterans explain exactly which ones keep showing up. Zach Peterson talks with Mike Buetow (PCEA), Chrys Shea (Shea Engineering), and Daniel Stanphill (Aurora Boardworks) about padstacks pulled off the internet, QFN footprints with no room for solder, datasheets that were never validated on a line, and why the designer-to-assembler conversation so often never happens.  You'll also get a preview of the new PCB West 2026 circuit assembly track: solder paste types, stencil design, pick-and-place at both extremes (2 kg parts and 006003 passives), and the SMTA Ultra HDI test vehicle. Whether you design boards, source parts, or run an SMT line, this is the design-for-assembly reality check to watch before your next board goes to the CM.

Today's episode is a little different, and honestly, one of my favorites I've done in a while. Instead of teaching a specific construction management strategy, I'm bringing you two honest conversations with designers inside The Designer's Edge. Not polished testimonials. Not highlight reels. Just real conversations about what actually changes when designers start putting better systems, pricing structures, boundaries, and construction management processes into place. You'll hear from Missy Werbrich, whose background in corporate design and outdoor living helped her build incredible transferable skills — but who still found herself dramatically undercharging and looking for a framework that matched the level she was operating at. Find out more about Missy here: Website: https://www.designwithmissy.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/designwithmissy/ FB:https://www.facebook.com/DesignWithMissy  LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/200803  FB: https://www.facebook.com/Werbrichs  Website: https://www.instagram.com/werbrichs_landscaping/  And you'll hear from Cynthia Lacy, a seasoned designer with decades of experience who realized she had fallen into what she calls "routine without purpose" — and how construction management gave her spark for the business back. Find out more about Cynthia here: Website: https://www.lacyandco.co/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lacyflips/ We talk about: Why so many designers undercharge The difference between scope of work and proposals Trusting your gut on projects Boundaries with contractors and clients Why systems create confidence The reality of managing construction projects And what designers actually need help with behind the scenes If you've ever wondered whether construction management coaching is really worth it, or whether you're "experienced enough already", I think these conversations will answer that better than I ever could myself.   Mentioned in this episode: Join The Designer's Edge waitlist here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers Grab Your Free Script Guide here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/push-back-script-handout Access the full video interview with Elana Steele of Steele Appliance here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/appliance   Find the full shownotes at: https://devignierdesign.com/construction-management-coaching-interior-designers

Most of us only know how to turn it down — fewer things, blanker walls, quieter colors. Aubrey knows how to work both ends of the dial: which parts of a room to hush, and which to let shout. And because she and Kale spend their days sourcing stone and tile from around the world, the thing she reaches for to turn the volume back up isn't what you'd expect.Subscribe to see the full tour — the rooms where she goes completely quiet, the ones where she turns it all the way up, and the marble that's doing some of the loudest work in the house.

If you want to scale your interior design business without sacrificing profitability, client fit, or freedom, this episode of Design Business Freedom is where the foundation begins. I'm breaking down why positioning has to come before pricing, process, team growth, or lead generation, and how understanding your true value can completely change the way prospective clients see your firm. Too many interior designers try to scale by fixing one isolated piece of the business at a time, only to discover that the rest of the business quietly works against that progress. In this episode, you'll learn the first pillar of the Profitable Studio Framework and the seven value factors that help you position your design firm with greater confidence, charge more strategically, and attract clients who already understand the value of what you bring. In This Episode You Will Learn: Understand why positioning must come before pricing when scaling your interior design business. Identify the seven value factors that determine what your expertise and transformation are truly worth. Stop quoting hourly or square-footage fees before you understand the design details, complexity, and client needs. Strengthen your positioning inside Design Business Freedom so you can attract better-fit interior design clients. Communicate your education, experience, talent, personality, team, roles, and resources with greater confidence and clarity. While one word can truly grow your profits, mastering more will lead to a full business and personal transformation. Get them all in my book "The Language of Success: 35 Words to Boost Your Worth and Wealth". You'll be pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of these word swaps and the increased confidence you'll feel in business and life. Timestamps: (00:58) Why scaling one piece at a time fails (03:59) Introducing the six-part Profitable Studio Framework (04:54) Why positioning must come before everything else (06:16) What to say when prospects ask your fees (09:36) Why discovery wins projects before design begins (11:51) Introducing the seven value factors for positioning (13:08) How education strengthens your perceived client value (16:23) Why experience protects clients from costly mistakes (17:31) Charging appropriately for your natural design talent (20:56) Why personality is a major positioning advantage (25:01) Positioning your extended team as client value (27:21) Recognizing the many roles designers actually perform (29:14) Why resources and access increase your value (31:22) Turning your value factors into stronger positioning (34:36) Your positioning assignment before pricing strategy Key Takeaways: Strong positioning starts with knowing the value of the transformation you deliver before you ever quote a fee. Interior designers leak profit when they discount the skills, instincts, and responsibilities that come naturally to them. Your education, experience, talent, personality, team, hats, and resources all contribute to the value clients are actually hiring. For Design Business Freedom listeners, clearer positioning creates the confidence to stop apologizing for fees and start choosing better-fit clients.

The news kicks off with Hasbro's CEO temporarily stepping in to oversee MTG and D&D, sparking discussion about leadership changes and their impact on two of the biggest tabletop franchises. They then dive into console strategy: PlayStation rumored to push harder toward an all‑digital future in response to Microsoft's Xbox Disc‑to‑Digital program. Adding fuel to the fire, Sony told a courtroom that reasonable gamers know they don't own digital games — a statement that raises eyebrows about consumer rights and ownership.

These are all real concerns—and they're exactly why understanding construction project management is such an important part of becoming a confident interior designer.In this episode, I'm walking you through how I approach construction and remodel projects, from bringing contractors into the process early to defining responsibilities, managing site visits, documenting decisions, communicating with clients, and building strong relationships with your construction team.

Send us Fan MailFrom the outside, a successful design firm looks like beautiful projects, polished photography and a full calendar. But those are the visible results. What you don't see is the structure behind them, and that's what this episode is about. I'm going behind the scenes to share what successful interior designers actually do differently: they take the business seriously, invest in themselves and the company, build real professional relationships, create clear processes, review their numbers every week, keep asking what's working and what's not, build the right team, protect their capacity, and make decisions before they feel completely ready. The thread running through all of it? They've stopped running the firm like the designer they were when they worked for someone else, and started running it like the CEO they are now. Plus, I'll give you a one-hour action step, including a calendar audit that reveals which job you've really been doing all week.The Profit Reset Private Podcast | September 14-18, 2026A free 5-day private podcast limited series designed to help Interior Designers finally look at the business behind the beautiful spaces. Join the Profit Reset: https://www.theprofitacademyforinteriordesigners.com/profitreset In just one focused hour, we'll dive into whatever you need most—pricing strategies, client management, attracting high-end clients or building repeat business.

This week, Mike and Alanah sat down with Em from A Shell in the Pit to talk about BIG WALK, and, ultimately, steal foley (sound design) knowledge for use in their own games. Hey, at least we admit it.

The fish known as the loose jaw or dragon fish has been found to have some remarkable abilities. At most 10 inches long, this deep-sea fish lives at depths between 1,500 and 4,500 feet. At these depths, the only light that gets through the water is a dim blue light. As a result, sighted creatures that live at those depths can see well in dim blue light, but virtually none of them can see light in the red end of the spectrum. None, that is, but the dragon fish, and that's its secret weapon.The dragon fish is the only known creature to have chlorophyll in its eyes. This compound gives the dragon fish the ability to see red light in the depths. But why would the dragon fish have these abilities if there is no red light to see? He makes his own red light. This bioluminescent red light is invisible to the dragon fish's prey. But the dragon fish can see its red light reflecting off nearby prey, as a sniper who uses an infrared scope to sight his prey in the dark.The dragon fish offers a powerful set of arguments in favor of a Creator. Its unique ability to see red where there is no red light cannot be explained by natural selection. Before it supposedly evolved the ability to see red light, how would it know about red light? And why would it have evolved the ability to create a color of light it could not have known about? The dragon fish's sniper-like ability to find its prey with light invisible to its prey bears powerful witness to a wise and powerful Designer.Genesis 1:20"And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.”Prayer: Dear Father, I praise You for the wonders You have made. Amen.Ref: S. Milus, “Red-flashing fish have chlorophyll eyes,” Science News. Image: Stomiidae deep-sea fish varieties poster, rawpixel, CC BY 2.0, Wikimedia Commons.

Jordan Tane is an artist and designer whose experience of growing up takiwatanga - with autism - means she sees the world a little differently. And it's exactly that unique perspective that's seen her land on the YWCA Y25 list of female and gender-diverse changemakers for 2026. Non-verbal until she was five years old, the award-winning designer and PhD student is now creating communication tools for violence prevention within families. It's been a process that she says has helped her reconnect with her own identity as Maori.
