The Co-Inventor of Tor on Why Your NHI Strategy Is Already BehindMost organizations have spent the last 20 years getting really good at human identity. 2FA. Biometrics. Face ID. Ephemeral tokens. They did the work. And the whole time, they were quietly pushing every ounce of that compressed risk onto the non-human side of the house.Service accounts with username and password. API keys that never rotate. Credentials hardcoded in pipelines. Long-lived tokens that were supposed to be temporary.Eventually is here.In this episode, David Lee sits down with David Goldschlag, CEO and co-founder of Aembit and one of the original inventors of onion routing — the technology that became Tor. With 20+ years building security companies, David G brings a perspective on non-human identity and AI agent security that very few people in this industry can match.They get into why NHI is not a new problem but a neglected one, what it actually means to build a zero trust framework for AI agents, the concept of blended identity and why your existing IAM stack is only part of the answer, why workforce agents and customer agents are fundamentally different and why treating them the same is a mistake, and why data is still the new oil and why that matters more now than ever.If your org is spinning up agents and hasn't had a real strategic conversation about what those agents can access, who they're acting on behalf of, and what happens when something goes wrong, this episode is exactly where you need to start.Topics CoveredThe origins of Tor and why onion routing still matters 30 years laterHow Aembit went from "Okta for workloads" to purpose-built AI agent identityThe three types of agents: autonomous, workforce, and customer-facingBlended identity and blended policy in practiceWhy ephemeral credentials are non-negotiable for agent accessZero trust for AI: the three pillars (identity, prompt security, data security)Non-repudiation in the age of agentic AIWhy vibe coders are making the NHI problem exponentially harderData security as the ultimate endpoint for every breach scenarioStay ConnectedSubscribe to the Identity Jedi newsletter at theidentityjedi.comFollow on LinkedIn, YouTube, and SpotifyRate, review, and share if this episode hit different

What does tender self-care look like when the world feels overwhelming? In this final episode of the "Chasing the Ephemeral" spring series, meditation teacher Meryl Arnett turns to the salamander, quiet guardian of vernal pools, for wisdom about gentle transformation and emotional balance. Through a deeply personal dream about tending to what's been neglected, this meditation explores how to practice radical self-care during times of moral injury and societal upheaval.Set against the continuing spring rain soundscape, this salamander-inspired practice teaches us to balance emotional energy (water) with earthly stability (land), finding our way between overwhelmed withdrawal and constant activism.What You'll ExperienceA guided meditation inspired by salamander wisdom that balances emotional energy with grounded stabilityDiscussion of moral injury - the anguish from witnessing harm that violates our deepest values when we feel powerless to stop itPractical self-care guidance that goes beyond social media wellness to include simple, tender acts of careThe three pillars of healing: getting present, feeling what you feel in your body, and reconnecting with yourself and othersSalamander symbolism exploring their dual life in water and on land as teachers of balance and transformationAbout the Soundscape ConclusionThis meditation completes the spring rain journey recorded by acoustic ecologist Nick McMahon in Washington's Cascade Mountains on Stillaguamish ancestral lands.

What if the most meaningful experiences are the ones we can only meet in the moment? This first episode in a three-part spring series explores the concept of "ephemeral"—those fleeting wildflowers, temporary woodland pools, and brief moments of wonder that can only be caught when we're fully present. Join meditation teacher Meryl Arnett for a journey into spring's hush, where we learn to practice awe and find renewal in life's most transient moments.Set against the backdrop of a mountain rain shower in Washington's Cascade Mountains (real sounds, no AI), this episode teaches the AWE technique—a simple practice for cultivating wonder in everyday life, even when spring feels chaotic and overwhelming.What You'll DiscoverThe meaning of "ephemeral" and why spring offers unique lessons about impermanence, presence, and renewalThe AWE technique - a simple 30-second micro-practice using Attention, Wait, and Exhale to cultivate wonder anywhereHow to find stability in spring's chaos by learning to "linger on the edge of now" rather than rushing toward summerA 20-minute guided meditation with spring rain sounds to practice cultivating awe and presenceAbout the Spring Rain SoundscapeThis meditation features the authentic sounds of a spring rain shower recorded by acoustic ecologist Nick McMahon in the deep western valleys of the Cascade Mountains, on the ancestral land of the Stillaguamish People. The saturated valley floor, soft and spotted with marshes, old-growth groves, rivers, and streams, provides pristine solitude during early spring months. As the days grow longer, these recordings capture the transition from night to day, allowing us to listen to the movement of time through nature's expression.This recording also captures Nick's first recording of a Barred Owl, discovered during the editing process, adding an extra layer of ephemeral magic to the soundscape.Recording credit: Nick McMahon, Acoustic EcologistYour Weekly PracticeChoose one ephemeral moment each day and pause for it.

Public artist Michael Townsend grew up in a military family that relocated often—at least ten times during his childhood. He learned early how to explore new locales and seek out new friends before moving on to the next temporary hometown. His final relocation was to study art at RISD, when he chose Providence as home—and began quietly reshaping it. He founded the Tape Art movement in 1989 and built a thriving practice rooted in ephemeral public murals, deeply private underground installations, and highly clandestine collaborations, including the now-legendary Secret Mall Apartment.For more than 30 years, he has created hundreds of temporary murals and collaborative public works around the world, including the 9/11 Hope Project and the invention of the BOOM! Projector. Now, with the success of the Secret Mall Apartment documentary on Netflix, it's clear that he and his collaborators were deeply intentional about incubating that narrative until it was ready to be heard.Moving fluidly in and out of the shadows—showing up, making an impression, then dissolving underground only to emerge again—turns out Michael himself may be a work of ephemeral art.Images and more from Michael Townsend on our website!Special thanks to our sponsor!

There is something quietly brutal about making work that only exists for a day. You build it. You rehearse it. You hold your nerve. The room fills. The moment happens - And then everyone goes home. You are left standing in the afterglow asking a question most artists feel ashamed to ask. How does something this ephemeral actually support my life? Not just my reputation. Not just my sense of meaning. My ability to keep making work. Today, Ceri talks about how one-off events, performances, and live moments can generate income and momentum without turning your practice into merch, without exhausting your audience, and without betraying the integrity of the work. This is about designing afterlives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Artists can sell from one-off events without cheapening the work, overpromoting, or burning out. They can design afterlives for ephemeral work, where income, integrity, and longevity can sit side by side. Think about the entire life cycle of a one-off event and where sales can happen quietly, intelligently and with integrity before and during the event. -  You're not selling the event; you're selling what the event activates. You only need a small, aligned audience, 10–30 people who genuinely understand and care about your work, combined with simple release windows after an event, to sustain an ephemeral practice. BEST MOMENTS “You don't want to flatten something complex into a product, but you also can't afford for every major piece of work to disappear without trace.” “Many artists miss a trick because they think selling only happens after the applause. It doesn't. Before the event, the work is already alive in other forms.” “If an event cannot produce anything that can be held, shared or lived with afterwards, institutions can't sustain it, and collectors can't support it.” EPISODE RESOURCES Ep 166 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-why-and-what-of-hosting-your-own-artist/id1709105337?i=1000741761586 Ep 167 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/planning-the-how-turning-intention-into-a/id1709105337?i=1000742246860 Ep 168 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/what-happens-after-turning-one-evening-into-long-term/id1709105337?i=1000742648123 PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

We sit with DOMHAIN — Andy, Anaïs, and Nathan — to drift beneath the surface of their debut album In Perfect Stillness. We explore: • The making of In Perfect Stillness and how it evolved from their earlier work • Recording at Foel Studio in Wales with the legendary Chris Fielding • Their Northern Irish roots, landscape, and the influence of Irish myth, nature, and the ocean • How they balance melancholy, introspection, and atmosphere in their music • Their striking vocal dynamic — blending raw black metal vocals with tender clean vocals • Guest contributions from Bryn Mills (composer on Footsteps/An Talamh Lom), Raul Andueza (cello), John Wilson (piano), Kacper Lewandowski (guitar), and Sarah Wieghell (vocals) • The creative process behind tracks like Footsteps II, Talamh Lom, and the album's title track • Their split EP Of Pine and Oak with Ephemeral and how it shaped their new material • And what to expect from their album launch show at Voodoo Belfast (March 7th) with Adfeilion If you're a fan of atmospheric metal, post-folk, black metal, or music rooted in myth, nature, and deep emotion — this episode is for you.

Story Transcript:Sv: Det var en kall vinterdag i utkanten av Stockholm.En: It was a cold winter's day on the outskirts of Stockholm.Sv: Snön föll mjukt utanför den stora familjevillan, täckande trädgården med ett vitt täcke.En: The snow fell softly outside the large family villa, covering the garden with a white blanket.Sv: Inne i huset var det varmt och mysigt, med dofter av brinnande ved från öppna spisen.En: Inside the house, it was warm and cozy, with the scent of burning wood from the fireplace.Sv: Familjen Ekström var upptagen med sin vardag.En: The Ekström family was busy with their daily routine.Sv: Det var full fart i köket, ljudet av någon som spelade piano hördes från vardagsrummet.En: The kitchen was bustling, and the sound of someone playing the piano could be heard from the living room.Sv: Men i den gamla vindvåningen, uppe under taket, var två unga hjärtan på upptäcktsfärd.En: But in the old attic, up under the roof, two young hearts were on an adventure.Sv: Axel, en blyg tonåring med en förkärlek för mysterier, hade hittat något ovanligt.En: Axel, a shy teenager with a fondness for mysteries, had found something unusual.Sv: En dörr.En: A door.Sv: En dörr som ingen i familjen verkade minnas.En: A door that no one in the family seemed to remember.Sv: Och den var låst.En: And it was locked.Sv: Ingen nyckel syntes till, inga tecken på hur den skulle öppnas.En: No key was in sight, and there were no signs of how to open it.Sv: Axel tänkte att detta var hans chans att visa vad han kunde.En: Axel thought this was his chance to show what he could do.Sv: Han behövde någon som kunde tänka utanför boxen.En: He needed someone who could think outside the box.Sv: Han behövde Freja.En: He needed Freja.Sv: Freja var hans äldre kusin som var på besök under vinterlovet.En: Freja was his older cousin who was visiting during the winter break.Sv: Hon älskade äventyr och hemligheter.En: She loved adventures and secrets.Sv: När Axel berättade om den låsta dörren, glittrade hennes ögon av nyfikenhet.En: When Axel told her about the locked door, her eyes glinted with curiosity.Sv: De två bestämde sig för att hitta ledtrådar inne i det gamla huset.En: The two decided to find clues inside the old house.Sv: De började nere i biblioteket där dammiga böcker och buntar av brev låg staplade.En: They started downstairs in the library where dusty books and bundles of letters lay piled up.Sv: Freja hittade en gammal dagbok.En: Freja found an old diary.Sv: Axel öppnade den försiktigt, bladen var sköra.En: Axel opened it carefully, the pages were fragile.Sv: Tillsammans började de läsa.En: Together they began to read.Sv: Dagboken tillhörde någon i familjen för länge sedan.En: The diary belonged to someone in the family long ago.Sv: Den beskrev barndomsminnen, drömmar och... koder?En: It described childhood memories, dreams, and... codes?Sv: Axel och Freja insåg att de hittat en lösning.En: Axel and Freja realized they had found a solution.Sv: Det fanns en kod i dagboken, dolda bakom enkla ord och symboler.En: There was a code in the diary, hidden behind simple words and symbols.Sv: Genom att kombinera deras tolkningar och tankar, dekrypterade de ciffern.En: By combining their interpretations and thoughts, they decrypted the cipher.Sv: Koden pekade mot en dold mekanism i den mystiska dörren.En: The code pointed to a hidden mechanism in the mysterious door.Sv: Med ett djupt andetag rörde Axel de gamla träytorna.En: With a deep breath, Axel touched the old wooden surfaces.Sv: Med ett klick gick dörren upp.En: With a click, the door opened.Sv: De klev in i ett utrymme som ingen sett på decennier.En: They stepped into a space unseen for decades.Sv: Rummet var som en tidskapsel.En: The room was like a time capsule.Sv: Det var fyllt med gamla fotografier, gamla brev, och små föremål som berättade om familjens historia.En: It was filled with old photographs, old letters, and small objects that told of the family's history.Sv: Här fanns det leksaker, skrivböcker, och till och med en pärla som en gång varit mycket värdefull för någon i familjen.En: There were toys, notebooks, and even a pearl that had once been very valuable to someone in the family.Sv: Axel kände sig stolt.En: Axel felt proud.Sv: Han hade löst ett mysterium som ingen annan hade brytt sig om.En: He had solved a mystery that no one else had cared about.Sv: Han hade upptäckt något om sin familj, och viktigast av allt, han hade bevisat för sig själv att han kunde klara av det.En: He had discovered something about his family, and most importantly, he had proven to himself that he could do it.Sv: Freja gav honom en uppmuntrande klapp på ryggen och sa, "Bra gjort, Axel.En: Freja gave him an encouraging pat on the back and said, "Well done, Axel.Sv: Det här glömmer vi aldrig."En: We'll never forget this."Sv: När de gick ned tillbaka till vardagen, var där inte bara ett snötäcke utanför huset utan också en nyfunnen känsla av tillhörighet och stolthet i Axels hjärta.En: As they went back down to everyday life, there wasn't just a blanket of snow outside the house but also a newfound sense of belonging and pride in Axel's heart.Sv: Han hade inte bara öppnat en dörr, han hade öppnat ett kapitel i sitt liv, fyllt med nya möjligheter och sammanhållning med familjen.En: He had not only opened a door, but he had also opened a chapter in his life filled with new possibilities and connection with his family.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 19, 2026 is: ephemeral • ih-FEM-uh-rul • adjective Something described as ephemeral lasts only for a very short time. // The performance was not recorded, a fact that made its ephemeral nature all the more poignant. See the entry > Examples: "Like most garden moments, fresh holiday wreaths are ephemeral. Having accomplished their purpose of seeing us through the darkest days of winter, removing this traditional symbol of the wheeling seasons is a way to recognize the birth of a new year and celebrate the returning light." — Lorene Edwards Forkner, The Seattle Times, 16 Nov. 2025 Did you know? In its aquatic immature stages, the mayfly (order Ephemeroptera) has all the time in the world—or not quite: among the approximately 2,500 species of mayflies, some have as much as two years, but a year is more common. But in its adult phase, the typical mayfly hatches, takes wing for the first time, mates, and dies within the span of a few short hours. This briefest of heydays makes the insect a potent symbol of life's ephemeral nature. When ephemeral (from the Greek word ephēmeros, meaning "lasting a day") first appeared in print in English in the late 16th century, it was a scientific term applied to short-term fevers, and later, to organisms (such as insects and flowers) with very short life spans. Soon after that, it acquired an extended sense describing anything fleeting and short-lived, as in "ephemeral pleasures."

 This is continual learning, right? Everyone has been talking about continual learning as the next challenge in AI. Actually, it's solved. Just tell it to keep some notes somewhere. Sure, it's not, it's not machine learning, but in some ways it is because when it will load this text file again, it will influence what it does … And it works so well: it's easy to understand. It's easy to inspect, it's easy to evolve and modify!Eleanor Berger and Isaac Flaath, the minds behind Elite AI Assisted Coding, join Hugo to talk about how to redefine software development through effective AI-assisted coding, leveraging “specification-first” approaches and advanced agentic workflows.We Discuss:* Markdown learning loops: Use simple agents.md files for agents to self-update rules and persist context, creating inspectable, low-cost learning;* Intent-first development: As AI commoditizes syntax, defining clear specs and what makes a result “good” becomes the core, durable developer skill;* Effortless documentation: Leverage LLMs to distill messy “brain dumps” or walks-and-talks into structured project specifications, offloading context faster;* Modular agent skills: Transition from MCP servers to simple markdown-based “skills” with YAML and scripts, allowing progressive disclosure of tool details;* Scheduled async agents: Break the chat-based productivity ceiling by using GitHub Actions or Cron jobs for agents to work on issues, shifting humans to reviewers;* Automated tech debt audits: Deploy background agents to identify duplicate code, architectural drift, or missing test coverage, leveraging AI to police AI-induced messiness;* Explicit knowledge culture: AI agents eliminate “cafeteria chat” by forcing explicit, machine-readable documentation, solving the perennial problem of lost institutional knowledge;* Tiered model strategy: Optimize token spend by using high-tier “reasoning” models (e.g., Opus) for planning and low-cost, high-speed models (e.g., Flash) for execution;* Ephemeral software specs: With near-zero generation costs, software shifts from static products to dynamic, regenerated code based on a permanent, underlying specification.You can also find the full episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.You can also interact directly with the transcript here in NotebookLM: If you do so, let us know anything you find in the comments!

I asked Stasia if she would be up for speaking with me about her book, Ephemerality, for a little midweek episode this week. She's fantastic company so the excuse to get her on a call seemed like a good one. Of course, because it's me, we talk the book but we also talk about future guest Krystle Wright, my one camera rule, sensor cleaning, Irn-Bru and haggis.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you'll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I'm interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Production 6H: "Enlightenment" (March 1-9, 1983) - Classic Doctor Who Season 20 Review The Black Guardian Trilogy reaches its spectacular conclusion as the TARDIS materializes aboard an elegant Edwardian racing yacht - but this is no ordinary vessel. The ship sails not across Earth's oceans, but through the infinite void of space itself, crewed by the mysterious Eternals - immortal beings who exist outside normal time, observing mortal "Ephemerals" with detached fascination while desperately seeking meaning in their endless existence. These god-like entities have organized a cosmic race across the solar system, with ships styled after various historical periods competing for the ultimate prize: Enlightenment itself, a crystallized form of absolute knowledge and truth. Caught between the manipulations of both the White Guardian and Black Guardian, Vislor Turlough must finally choose his allegiance - will he murder the Doctor to save himself, or reject the Black Guardian's promised rewards? Meanwhile, Tegan Jovanka finds herself the unwilling object of affection from Captain Striker, an Eternal who cannot comprehend human emotions yet is fascinated by her temporal existence. The Fifth Doctor races to prevent catastrophe as the competition reaches its climax and the true nature of Enlightenment is revealed. Join podcaster John S. Drew and acclaimed writer/editor Jim Beard as they master time and space, delivering comprehensive reviews of every Classic Doctor Who serial. In this Black Guardian Trilogy finale analysis, they explore writer Barbara Clegg's philosophical concepts behind the Eternals and their parasitic relationship with mortal consciousness, debate the story's frustratingly anticlimactic and unsatisfying resolution that undermines the trilogy's buildup, and examine the fascinating dynamic where Turlough emerges as the voice of pragmatic reason compared to the Doctor's more reckless heroism - reversing their expected character roles. This episode addresses two crucial questions: Where did John and Jim ultimately land in their numerical rating for this ambitious yet flawed conclusion to the season-spanning Black Guardian arc? And at this pivotal halfway point through Peter Davison's tenure as the Fifth Doctor, has Jim's skepticism about this incarnation softened, or does he remain unconvinced by Davison's understated performance style?

Welcome to another Retrospective episode, this time about wildflowers. This was originally recorded in 2019 as part of the radio show, Digging in with Master Gardeners on 90.7 WGXC FM. The content is still very relevant today, so we've repurposed it for our podcast format. In this episode, Tim and Jean sit down with Tracey Testo-Smith, Agroforestry and Natural Resources Program Manager at Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) of Columbia and Greene Counties. Tracey considers the Agroforestry Resource Center in the Siuslaw Teaching and Model Forest as her “specialty.” She leads frequent forest walks, and Part I of this interview is a chat about the wildflowers she observes. She explains the Siuslaw Forest's evolution from a logging resource to one of four model forests in the New York City/Catskill Watershed area. The forest is an education source and is frequently open to the public. So, when you want to learn about wildflowers and attend one of Tracey's walks, what should you expect? Tracey says to keep in mind three main features of most : wildflowers are; petal number and symmetry (odd or even number); leaf arrangement, whether opposite, alternate or whorled; the edges of the leaf, whether the margins are entire, toothed or lobed. With these three basic observations, you can begin to “key out” an iID for the plant you're looking at. Newcombe's Wildflower Guide is Tracey's favorite reference book. On her walks, Tracey likes to point out the more subtle flowers, while still admiring the showier “stars”, of course. There is also a grey area about non-native introduced flowers that have coexisted peacefully with the natives for, in some cases, centuries. These are acknowledged for their beauty and usefulness, too. In the Spring wildflower walks, the Ephemerals show off. These are plants with a specific lifestyle habit of appearing early in the year, growing to full maturity and producing seeds before disappearing, plant and all, until the next year. Tracey points out that sometimes plants are misnamed as ephemeral but arent because the foliage perseveres into the summer. One example of this is the Hepatica. A field trip, whether into the Siuslaw Forest or, often, the Hudson CCE campus, consists of the group gathering and reviewing how to use field guides before venturing outside to explore. Phone apps are discussed as well. Tracey admits a partiality to the Springtime. She points out that at that time of year, we're hungry for color and fresh plant life as the forest reawakens. When Tim asked about the rarest plant she'd observed, she described the green fringed orchid, a very subtle beauty that seems to “move around” from year to year. It's listed by the state as not “rare”, but “vulnerable.”Some plants are hunted, specifically ginseng. Once almost eradicated because of its value to herbalists and over-harvesting by landowners and poachers alike, wild stands of the plant are often kept secret by those who find them. Ginseng planbts typcally don't thrive when transplanted, so Tracey warns against thinking you can bring them home to grow them in “safety”. In fact, she advises against digging up any wild plant... it's usually a death sentence because its growing requirements are very specific. Other threats beside loving them to death (moving them) include climate change and invasive plants. Climate change interferes with the interrelations between plants, birds and animals that had evolved over millennia, when outside temperatures are no longer predictable by seasons. With extremes occurring more often, it stresses plant life. Invasive plants outcompete native plants for resources by sprouting earlier and lasting later into the seasons. The other major threat to wildflowers is deer browse. Tracey describes experimental “exclosures” build within the forest and observed over a number of years for effect on the plant population. There is an opportunity for citizen scientist volunteers to participate in the AVID program (see website link in the resources). Another way to participate is via the iMap invasive app, reporting on discovery and reporting of invasive plants.

Irene The Alien travels across the cold infinities of space for a brief descent to converse with the singular earthling amongst earthlings: Katya. They discuss, with the tranquil gravity of deep space, the paradox of her early ejection from the Drag Race mothership, the chromatic splendor of dresses that gleam like auroras on a methane sea, and RuPaul's rapt delight in immense mortal metamorphoses. Together they plot the firmament of cinema itself, ranking films as one might classify galaxies. Some are mere errant asteroids, whilst others are colossal nebulae of artistry. Enjoy this communiqué as a meditation on both glamour and exile, drifting endlessly through the black and star-strewn silence of space.

The Space Show presents Dr. Kothari and his art show! Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2025Summary by Zoom. Edited.Our program for today consisted of a virtual gallery tour of Dr. Ajay Kothari's art exhibit at the Antique Den gallery in Fairfax, Va. Gallery owner Kei, along with Dr. Kothari, introduced the exhibit featuring approximately 40 paintings. They discussed our online Zoom tour. Kei presented the format for the program, helped in doing a gallery panorama of all the paintings plus she handled the smart phone camera while AJ explained various paintings, discussing his techniques, themes, and prices for each painting, all while sharing his artistic background and dedication to his work. Our Space Show audience inquired about the success of the exhibition, including strong attendance. Strong positive feedback was reported. In his talk at the beginning of the “tour”, AJ connected the dots with his artwork, vision and space. Due to the nature of several of his paintings, Dr. Kothari explored topics like space exploration and environmental responsibility plus the care of all animals and life here on our home planet. Space Show listeners sharing the Zoom meeting with us included Bill Gowan, Dr. Sherry Bell, and John Hunt.Kei and Ajay discussed the connection between abstract art and the universe, emphasizing the importance of abstract representations in capturing the essence of cosmic phenomena. Ajay highlighted the responsibility humans have to care for Earth's unique life forms, as they may be the only ones in the universe, and stressed the need for continued evolution in the third dimension through space exploration and scientific advancement. He argued that this vision should unite people globally, including artists, authors, and musicians, to support space exploration as an integral part of humanity's future.Ajay presented several of his paintings, explaining their themes and techniques. Early on, he discussed works such as “Ephemeral 4,” which captures a moment of dancers in motion, and “Conflict of Straight and Curb,” which explores the tension between straight and curved lines. Also shown were paintings titled “Angst,” “Big Bang Theory,” and “Non-Anger,” telling us how they convey different emotions and concepts.Ajay's gallery tour was in order of the way the paintings were displayed in the gallery. He highlighted a very unique and colorful painting of a Native American, expressing his feelings about the lack of representation of Native Americans in media and politics.Ajay had a few landscape paintings including specific works like “Father of the Jungle” and “East Meets West at Amber Fort.” During our virtual tour, he clarified that most of the paintings were either oil or acrylic on canvas, with a few exceptions. By the way, for each painting he also told us its price/. He mentioned that one painting had been sold recently with interest in several more. The discussion included comments from Bill regarding his skill in depicting skies and a brief exchange about the use of palette knives in some of the paintings.Ajay was asked to explain his pricing strategy for his paintings, which he said is based on analogy to previously sold works and relative size. I jokingly asked how his health was, and should we buy one of his paintings, might we see a quick boost in price due to a health problem. Ajay laughed along with me and assured us all that his health is good, and prices are unlikely to inflate suddenly. Ajay expressed his belief that science, art, and philosophy should be integrated, and emphasized the need for a strong vision in leadership roles like the NASA head. The discussion concluded with Ajay sharing his artistic background and dedication to his work, and Bill expressing admiration for his artistic achievements.Space Show participant Bill raised a question about planetary protection at Mars given one of Ajay's paintings of Mars – see our tour to see and learn more about this painting. In response, Ajay expressed little interest in the planetary defense topic, instead emphasizing the importance of space exploration and human cognitive evolution, while expressing skepticism about the feasibility of large-scale human migration to Mars within the next few centuries.I asked everyone, including gallery owner Kei, to share with us their favorite painting(s) in Ajay's collection. I told everyone that I really liked several pieces including the Ballerina, red sky and ocean paintings, and the very special Mars piece. Sherry and Bill shared their preferences, with Sherry liking an arch-inspired painting and Bill appreciating the abstract piece called “Uncertain” and another titled “Angst.”Before ending, Sherry suggested exploring merchandise opportunities featuring his artwork, such as totes and purses, to expand market reach. Ajay shared his thoughts on using his art to make a case for science, space exploration, and environmental responsibility in a potential future Senate confirmation hearing should Dr. Kothari ever be tapped for a high-level government policy appointment position. We concluded this Space Show program by thanking both Kei and Ajay for hosting the exhibition and to all participants for their attendance in this very special and unique Space Show program.Special thanks to our sponsors:Northrup Grumman, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.comThe Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

In this episode of the KuppingerCole Analyst Chat, Matthias Reinwarth is joined by Martin Kuppinger and special guest Felix Gaehtgens to explore two of the hottest (and most debated) topics in identity today: Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) and Non-Human / Machine Identities (NHI). Together, they gothrough the buzzwords to reveal what’s real, what’s hype, and how organizations should approach these fast-evolving areas of IAM. From visibility vs. observability, to governance challenges and the future of machine identity management, this episode delivers sharp insights and practical recommendations from three IAM veterans. So tell us — are ITDR and NHI just marketing buzzwords, or essential must-haves for modern identity security? Key topics covered: ITDR explained: buzzword or meaningful evolution in IAM? Why visibility and observability are not the same The missing “R” in detection & response IAM vs. SOC responsibilities for ITDR Machine identities: terminology, challenges, and governance Ephemeral vs. static machine identities How IAM teams can prepare for the future of identity security

In this bonus segment, Alex and Martin Benes have an interesting conversation about the contrast between ephemeral, fleeting moments in life, travel, and relationships versus stability and longterm growth. The two talk about travel tales, life, and more. They are split.

In this episode of the KuppingerCole Analyst Chat, Martin Kuppinger joins Matthias Reinwarth to dive deep into one of the most overlooked but critical areas in identity and security: non-human identities (NHI) and workload secrets. As cloud-native development and AI-driven workloads grow, so does the complexity of managing machine identities. With AWS now supporting long-lived API keys for generative AI, this episode explores why that's a risky move — and what a modern, secure, and developer-friendly alternative looks like. In this episode, you'll learn: Why workload identities must be treated as privileged How long-lived secrets expand your attack surface Why “balancing convenience vs. security” is a false choice How to apply ephemeral secrets and ITDR signals The role of SPIFFE/SPIRE, policy-as-code (OPA), and automation Why developers shouldn’t own security — and what IAM must do instead How attackers use AI to hunt your leaked secrets What organizations must do to secure NHI at scale Key takeaway: Security must be built around short-lived secrets, automation, and clear separation between identity, secrets, and entitlements — especially for workloads and AI agents.

Dharma talk by David Dae An Rynick, Rōshi, on May 6, 2025

“If you don't ask your AI what it used to make a decision, it might cost you your reputation—or worse.” — Matt Bramson, Chief Revenue Officer, Frontline Frontline's Matt Bramson on the Monumental Implications of vCon and the Urgent Need for Ethical Oversight in AI Hyannis, MA - April 2025 - As the first-ever vCon Conference concluded, Matt Bramson of Frontline offered a compelling vision of both the promise and the peril emerging from virtualized conversations and AI-driven decision-making. In a far-ranging conversation that blended philosophy, ethics, and enterprise AI, Bramson challenged business leaders to think well beyond lanes, silos, and conventional product rollouts. “We're looking at something civilization-transforming,” said Bramson. “Imagine a mountain of vCons—every conversation, everywhere, stored in a structured format and interrogated by AI. The insights could be profound, even world-changing. But there's a moral cost if we don't ask the right questions.” From Ephemeral Talk to Structured Truth At its core, the vCon standard captures and containers conversations—text, voice, email—across every modality in a standardized format. These containers can then be appended with CRM data, sentiment analysis, and other metadata, unlocking unprecedented insights through AI interrogation. “Conversations are how we share heartbreaks, solve problems, build businesses. They've always been ephemeral. vCons make them permanent—and actionable,” Bramson noted. Yet with such power comes risk. Bramson recounted a chilling real-world example: an AI used by a beverage company to optimize pricing based on customer characteristics. What seemed like a smart revenue idea risked violating anti-discrimination laws—and damaging the brand—because no one had taught the AI what not to use. “Who's teaching the AI business ethics, social ethics? In many cases, no one,” Bramson warned. “If you're not interrogating the AI's output, you might not know it's discriminating—until a journalist does.” A Philosopher's Take on AI With a background in philosophy, Bramson brought a rare perspective to the discussion. Where some see hallucinations in LLMs, he sees echoes of ancient debates in epistemology and metaphysics. “We're overdue for philosophers in tech boardrooms,” he said. “What's unfolding now has been pondered for millennia. Ethics and AI are now converging in real time—and most companies aren't prepared.” He challenged executives to go beyond staying in their lanes: “CEOs must ask how their AIs are making decisions—not just what those decisions are.” Frontline: CX Innovation with Real-World Impact Frontline, Bramson explained, stands at the intersection of contact center services, CCaaS technology sales, and AI-enabled agent software. But what truly excites his team is their work with social impact programs. “We take thousands of 2-1-1 calls—from people seeking food, housing, utility help,” said Bramson. “These conversations are rich with insight, and vCons give us a framework to share that data responsibly across municipalities.” Unlike private-sector rivals, 2-1-1 providers collaborate freely, and Bramson believes vCons will allow best practices in social services to travel faster, more efficiently, and with more measurable impact.

Guest: James Campbell, CEO, Cado Security Chris Doman, CTO, Cado Security Topics: Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) vs Cloud Investigation and Response Automation(CIRA) ... what's the story here? There is an “R” in CDR, right? Can't my (modern) SIEM/SOAR do that?  What about this becoming a part of modern SIEM/SOAR in the future? What gets better when you deploy a CIRA (a) and your CIRA in particular (b)? Ephemerality and security, what are the fun overlaps? Does “E” help “S” or hurts it? What about compliance? Ephemeral compliance sounds iffy… Cloud investigations, what is special about them? How does CSPM intersect with this? Is CIRA part of CNAPP?   A secret question, need to listen for it!

#403: Josiah Jones 2 -- Filming Jeff Mercier for Ice Climbing Film "Ephemeral" by Chris Ward

In this episode, Mandy (@mandyleft) talks with photographer and filmmaker Marta Arjona (@marjonablasco).   They began by discussing Marta's short films Dolors and Peaceful Wind. They also talked about using expired films and some of Marta's favorites.   Marta was the recent recipient of a community grant from Ilford for her project ePhemeral. The nature of dance is that a dancer will never move exactly the same twice, so each performance is unique. Capturing it on film makes it eternal.   They finished up with the reoccurring segments FFS (For Film's Sake) and PACS (Pleasing Analogue Camera Sounds) and Marta gave a shoutout to Cuarto Color Lab (@cuartocolorlab).

An estimated 80,000 people will come.During production of our Keepers series, chronicling activist archivists, rogue librarians and keepers of the culture and free flow of information, we received this message on the Keepers Hotline:"Hello Kitchen Sisters, I am a rogue archivist, the archivist for Burning Man. Come to Burning Man headquarters and I'll show you the collection. Cheers.” —LadyBee, Archivist & Art Collection Manager, Burning ManHow do you archive an event when one of it's driving principles is "leave no trace," where The Burning Man is in fact burned? What is being kept and who is keeping it? We journey into the archives of this legendary gathering to find out.Produced by The Kitchen Sisters with Nathan Dalton and Brandi Howell, mixed by Jim McKee.
