Du nu reggae au manouche, en passant par le jazz, la #SessionLive reçoit deux noms de la scène hexagonale. (Rediffusion du 19 janvier 2025)Nos premiers invités sont Les Doigts de l'Homme pour la sortie de Erratic, The Art of Roaming.Les Doigts de l'Homme fêtent leurs 20 ans. Pour cela, ils sortent un double album ambitieux qui illustre le trajet parcouru le long de ces nombreuses années avec une approche encore plus inédite et personnelle. De l'acoustique à l'électrique, 23 titres autour d'un jazz de création, « guitaristique », coloré et exigeant. Et pour respecter la tradition : à chaque nouvel album, un nouvel instrument invité ! C'est le batteur Pierre Rettien qui rejoint l'équipe pour illustrer ce passage à l'électrique. « Erratic », deuxième single tiré du double album Erratic, The Art Of Roaming qui est sorti le 20 septembre 2024. Accepter le désordre, ne pas suivre de ligne de conduite, laisser émerger librement ce qu'il en résulte, dans la vie comme dans la musique, accepter de se laisser malmener par l'imprévu, fuir l'ordre qui peu à peu s'établit. Ignorer l'influence du regard extérieur, celui qui finit par restreindre la véritable liberté de choisir. Laisser naître de ce qui semble être le chaos.► Titres interprétés au grand studio« Dreaming of my Brothers » Live RFI« Des hommes intègres », extrait du double album (cd Électrik)« Californian Christmas » Live RFI► Line Up : Olivier Kikteff (guitare), Benoît Convert (guitare), Yannick Alcocer (guitare), Tanguy Blum (contrebasse) et Nazim Aliouche (percussions)Son : Mathias Taylor, Camille RochAlbum Erratic, The Art of Roaming (Lamastrock/ Inouïe Dist. 2024).YouTube - Bandcamp - LamastrockPuis, nous recevons Flox pour la sortie de Square.Flox est square.

Alors, son septième album s'intitule Square.Square correspond à un virage majeur dans la carrière du pionnier du nu reggae, extraordinaire artisan du studio qui joue de tous les instruments, s'enregistre, se mixe et se produit mais, pendant une douzaine d'années, montait sur scène avec des musiciens.

Il y a quelques décennies, il sort diplômé en reliure de ses cinq ans à l'École Estienne. Il est en pleine période punk et ne se voit pas travailler pour les vieux clients bourgeois des relieurs. Alors, il devient informaticien et son premier salaire sert à payer la première traite d'une table de mixage à 25 000 francs. Après tout, Florian Gratton n'a jamais manqué de détermination et sait prendre des décisions tranchées. Avant lui, sa mère, moitié kabyle, moitié française, s'est évadée en Grande-Bretagne à l'adolescence, a rencontré un acteur moitié anglais, moitié irlandais et ne revient en France qu'après la victoire de Mitterrand à la présidentielle de 1981. Florian a onze ans et se met à la batterie, son premier instrument. Peu à peu, il saura jouer d'un peu tout. « Je suis plus curieux que vraiment multiinstrumentiste. Je n'apprends de chaque instrument que ce qui me suffit pour faire de la musique. C'est un apprentissage ciblé. Il me faut des notes bien appuyées et bien placées. »Qu'on ne s'attende pas à une trajectoire classique de reggaeman. Sa porte d'entrée pour la musique jamaïcaine est franchement britannique avec Police, avant le drum'n'bass et le choc de la dub poetry de Linton Kwesi Johnson. « À part ça, j'ai autant été nourri de Bob Marley que des Pink Floyd. » À vingt ans commence le temps des groupes. À trente ans, il dirige une batucada de trente percussionnistes. Mais il s'est fixé comme un cap de faire son premier album avant trente-cinq ans. Square est son 7e album.► Titres interprétés au grand studio« Square » Live RFI« In The Shade », extrait de l'album« Loose » Live RFI► ​​​​​​​Line Up : Florian Gratton alias Flox (machines, voix)Son : Mathias Taylor, Camille RochAlbum Square (Underdog Records 2024)Site - YouTube - Bandcamp

One of New Zealand's biggest musicians, Hollie Smith, has been experimenting with other types of art. Smith has been dabbling in painting, and is showcasing her entry into the world of visual art with her new exhibition ‘It's Not Music' at artist FLOX's gallery in Auckland. She hasn't completely abandoned her music, as she plans to embark on a small venue tour of New Zealand later this month. She says the music scene has slowed down since Covid - and she needed to expand to a new creative outlet. "The industry's still really struggling...I recently moved back to my house in Tauranga, I'm just on my own down here and just had a lot of time on my hands, I just needed a new creative outlet."

Welcome to another episode of Category Visionaries — the show that explores GTM stories from tech's most innovative B2B founders. In today's episode, we're speaking with Ron Efroni, CEO & Co-Founder at Flox, a Nix environment management tool that has raised $28 Million in funding. Here are the most interesting points from our conversation: Military Influence: Ron discussed his experience in the 8200 unit, emphasizing how the high-stakes, mission-critical environment of military intelligence provided him with a unique perspective and approach to handling pressure and responsibility, which he has carried into his entrepreneurial ventures. Transition from Military to Entrepreneurship: He touched on the challenges and learning curves associated with moving from a structured military environment to the unpredictability of starting and running startups, highlighting the differences in team dynamics and decision-making processes. Role at Facebook: Before founding Flox, Ron worked at Facebook, where he was responsible for developer products and experiences. This role provided him with insights into large-scale product management and development, influencing his approach to building and managing his own company. Foundation of Flox: The idea for Flox came from Ron's experiences at Facebook and his frustration with the complexities developers face in environment management. His exposure to Nix technology and its potential led him to co-found Flox to simplify and streamline development environments for programmers. Community Engagement and Open Source Philosophy: Ron is actively involved in the Nix community and advocates for open source development. He aims to support and grow the Nix ecosystem, reflecting his commitment to collaborative innovation and community-driven development. Future Vision for Flox: Looking ahead, Ron envisions Flox significantly lowering barriers to software development by enhancing and expanding the capabilities of Nix environments, making development more accessible and efficient across the industry.

Today's conversation is with iconic New Zealand artist and mum of two boys FLOX.Having built her brand over many years, FLOX is one of New Zealand's most recognised contemporary artists, redefining what it is to be a practicing artist in the 21st century. An aerosol and stencil artist with a fine art degree, FLOX first made her mark on the inner cityscape of Auckland in 2003. Her trademark native birds, ferns and flowers are a celebration of New Zealand's environmental taonga (treasure).FLOX has always maintained a philosophy of “making art for the people” and making her art accessible which has seen her take her own artistic lane by avoiding the traditional artist/gallery relationship. Utilising her long term experience and skill set, FLOX has also spent the last few years putting energy into teaching workshops and passing on her creative knowledge.  Her shop and working studio - Haus Of Flox can be found in Grey Lynn, Auckland and she has just opened up a new gallery space next door called Eyes on Fire which aims to be a gallery by artists, for artistsHaus of Flox, 13 Great North Rd, Grey Lynn, Auckland, New Zealandwww.flox.co.nzInsta: @floxnz Eyes on Fire Gallery, 15 Great North Rd, Grey Lynn, Auckland, New Zealandwww.eyesonfire.nzInsta: @eyesonfire.nzLinks from today's episode:iPad Pro & Fresco AppBooks illustrated by FloxTu Meke Tutatara Tu Meke TuiInspired by:Charles and Janine Williams@charlesjaninewilliamsWatching:Handmaids TaleHouse of DragonAbout your host:Kate Hursthouse is an artist, creative business owner and single mother to one awesome kid.

 Brenda Beyal, program coordinator for the Native American Curriculum Initiative, Stephanie West, an instructional designer working on the NACI asynchronous professional development course, and Heather Sundahl, a writer and editor with the Native American Curriculum Initiative, join Cally Flox to discuss the term ‘sovereignty.' What does it mean to be a sovereign nation? How can we talk about tribal groups versus tribal nations versus sovereign nations?Five Native American Tribal Groups in UtahFirst, the hosts define what it means to be a “tribe.' There are five tribal groups in Utah; within those tribal groups are eight sovereign nations. Cally shares a pneumonic device: “SUNG-P” that helps her remember the names of the five tribes: Shoshone, Ute, Navajo, Goshute and Paiute. The Navajo and Shoshone want to be called Nations; the others—Goshute, Ute, and Paiute—want to be called Tribes. These three groups have two sovereign nations each, which makes eight sovereign nations total in Utah when added to the Navajo and the Shoshone.What is a Sovereign Nation?Heather, Cally, Stephanie, and Brenda discuss the various meanings and layers of a sovereign nation. To Brenda, sovereignty is having the ability to self-govern, much like states self- govern themselves. While the definition of sovereignty denotes a nation-to-nation relationship with the federal government, Stephanie reminds us that sovereignty existed long before colonizers came to North America. Over time, the definition of sovereignty has evolved due to changing laws and attitudes. Why Sovereignty Matters to Indigenous People574 sovereign nations exist in the United States, eight of which are in Utah. However,over 200 more tribes are seeking federal recognition through a long and elaborate process. Sovereignty is important because it provides access to resources and funds, but most importantly, it provides opportunity for reclamation and recognition. The Utah Flag bears an outdated representation of the tribes of Utah. When it was created in the 19th century, Utah was home to six tribes,represented by an eagle with six arrows in its beak. Now, since the Bannock Tribe has been relocated to Idaho, there are only five tribes. Heather hopes the flag will offer a more accurate representation of Utah's native tribes when officials completed its redesign..The hosts explain that the money Native Americans receive towards healthcare and scholarships is treaty money. This money was given by the federal government as a compromised remuneration in exchange for Native land, and was probably under-negotiated at the outset. A current Supreme Court ruling allows for abrogation of Native treaties, or the modification of treaties over time without the consent of the relevant indigenous group: every single Native American treaty has been changed over time, often without the consent of Native Americans. To summarize: previously negotiated funding is not a gift; it comes at a price. Land Acknowledgements: What is a land acknowledgement? How do I make one?Another way listeners can move toward reciprocity and restitution is by practicing the act of land acknowledgement. Understanding that the definition of Native land is complex and includes three sometimes distinct types (tribal, reservation, and ancestral), land acknowledgement is the awareness and appreciation of the ancestral lands of a group of people who were caretakers much further back than our ancestors were. Brenda shares an example of a land acknowledgement in this episode and in this blog post.As part of a land acknowledgement, offer a pledge to be a thoughtful steward by sharing specific ways that my family will help care for the land: pick up trash, or donate to a program that helps spread awareness about environmental consciousness, contributing to a scholarship fund for people whose ancestors were once on this land.In an effort to create awareness, activate empathy, and learn the beautiful principles that the Native people have to teach us about caring for our land, the BYU ARTS Partnership regularly offers land acknowledgements at conferences and professional development meetings.can. Brenda and Cally remind listeners that although mistakes and injustices have been made in the past, we live in a time when we can make a difference. We don't have to look back and feel shame, but rather we can propagate a spirit of unity that propels us forward towards reciprocity and restitution. We can help Native people reclaim their history and heritage now by communicating, validating, and honoring their feelings and stories.  Learn about tribal land, reservation land, and ancestral land.Native land includes tribal land, reservation land, and ancestral land. Sometimes these things are the same, and sometimes they're not. Tribal lands include lands that tribes bought back from the federal government. Reservation land is federal land set aside for tribal use and legal jurisdiction through the recognition of the federal government. Ancestral land includes land on which native peoples used to live; these lands are often difficult to reclaim due to the forcible removal of native peoples from their ancestral land in the 1800's. For example, some tribes' ancestral lands are in the SouthEast, but their current tribal lands are in an entirely different location. Those tribes have lost their ancestral land, which often had fluid borders. Find more information on this topic at our blog post titled “Utah Native Nations Fact Sheet: Five Tribes Eight Nations”.Follow Us:Native American Curriculum Initiative Mailing ListBYU ARTS Partnership NewsletterAdvancingArtsLeadership.comSubscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on SpotifyInstagramFacebookPinterestDon't forget to peruse the bank of lesson plans produced by the BYU ARTS Partnership in dance, drama, music, visual arts, media arts, and more.

Partnering with Native TribesOver the past three years, Brenda Beyal and her Native American Curriculum Initiative team have worked to create a culture of respect and inclusivity, building relationships of collaboration and creating lesson plans that include the native voice. The inception of this work began when the NACI team asked  representatives from native tribes, “What do you want the children of Utah to know about your tribe?” Teaching artists collaborated with tribal representatives to create lesson plans with relevant and appropriate content, as well as a tribal seal of approval.As the NACI team worked with tribal representatives and other partners across the state, seven principles emerged as a code of conduct and philosophy for how the team and partners engage in the NACI initiative.1. Embrace Partnership & ReciprocityThe first principle is to embrace partnership and reciprocity. Cally, Brenda, and Heather reflect on an experience with the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation. Patty Timbimboo Madsen contacted the NACI team, looking for someone that could film the nations annual commemoration ceremony of the Bear River Massacre—the largest single slaughter of Native American lives in American history. Heather reflects on the sacredness of the event and the privilege of helping this tribe reclaim their story. Reciprocity—the act of offering something without expectation of receiving anything back—always leads to receiving more than you give. 2. Know Your Own CultureKnowing your own culture is the second principle: everyone participates in a multifaceted culture with many layers. Taking time to learn and embody our own culture enables confidence and deep listening when learning about other cultures. Developing awareness around the traditions and values of your family's culture makes it easier to be curious about other groups and how they explore and live those same aspects in different ways. 3. Ask with Genuine Intent, Listen AttentivelyAsking with genuine intent and listening attentively is the third guiding principle. At the onset of the initiative, the NACI team asked native people, “What would you like the children of Utah to know about your tribe?” Listening with genuine intent and letting go of preconceived answers enabled the team to receive their authentic answer. 4. Accepting ‘No' GracefullyThe fourth principle is accepting the ‘no' gracefully. Often the NACI team asked questions, hoping for a certain answer but quickly learned that they were in the wrong. Disingenuous conversations or manipulating a ‘yes' out of someone are not really consent: it's not a true offering and it's not a real partnership. Accepting the ‘no' completely and gracefully empowers both the giver and receiver, opening the door for more meaningful opportunities and conversations.5. Allow the Time Needed for Authentic GrowthThe fifth guiding principle is to allow the time needed for authentic growth. At the outset of her work, Brenda assumed meeting all the tribes in a conference room and asking questions would provide all the content they needed. Three years later, the team still works to build authentic relationships. Trust, understanding, and a willingness to share takes time— there can be no deadlines. 6. Importance of Original SourcesPrinciple number six is the importance of original sources. Using multiple voices and broad perspectives helps the NACI team make sure they are bringing forward accurate and authentic sources in history into the present moment. Seeking authentic voices actively helps establish relationships, balance perspectives, and enrich lesson plans. 7. Assume Goodwill, Learn from MistakesThe last principle is to assume goodwill and learn from mistakes. NACI team members gently inform each other of new information so they can learn to do better. Mistake-making is an inevitable aspect of learning for everyone involved: partners, tribal members, and other collaborators are all experiencing a process of trial and error: growing together requires respect and grace from all sides. Weaving a Tapestry of Understanding and CollaborationBringing the seven guiding principles together into a coherent whole, Brenda shares a memory of her mother, a Diné, Navajo weaver, setting up her loom. The part of the loom holding the vertical threads is called the warp. The warp provides foundational support to the intricate designs created by the weft threads, just as the guiding principles of the Native American Curriculum Initiative act as the warp of the tapestry that their team is weaving. Every part of the NACI, whether it's working with artists, tribal nations, or partners like UEN or USBE, is woven through these guiding principles that help amplify native voices. Cally hopes the guiding principles will help others move forward, weaving a tapestry of understanding and reciprocal relationships in cultural situations.Follow Us:Native American Curriculum Initiative Mailing ListBYU ARTS Partnership NewsletterAdvancingArtsLeadership.comSubscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on SpotifyInstagramFacebookPinterestDon't forget to peruse the bank of lesson plans produced by the BYU ARTS Partnership in dance, drama, music, visual arts, media arts, and more.

Cally Flox and Brenda Beyal share how the Native American Curriculum Initiative (NACI) came to be through empathetic observation, vulnerable conversation, and important questions.

Cally Flox, MEdDirector BYU Arts Partnership, Brigham Young University"Our opportunity is to help children find their own voice. And when they find their own voice through the arts, then we want to give them enough information so they have something meaningful to say. Then we want to give them enough skills so they can say it in a beautiful and effective way."

“Now hear this. Now hear this. On this week's episode of Kirking Off we delve a day in the life of Flox who is sharing all his observations about human culture while serving as the ship's doctor. An ethical crisis presents itself to Flox: The Valakians are suffering from a congenital disease that will eventually lead to their extinction. The catch: The Menk (a less advanced secondary species on the planet), are slated to become the dominant species on the planet because of their immunity to the disease. Flox is hesitant to interfere because of Neanderthals or something. Captain Archer finds himself having to make a decision on the survival of an entire species. So who is right? Who is wrong? And is the outcome ethically sound? I present to you, Dear Doctor, from Star Trek: Enterprise.” Season 1 - Episode 13 LINKS Support this podcast

Trigger warning: in deze aflevering bespreken we grensoverschrijdend gedrag. Tip: Luister samen zodat je het na afloop kan bespreken Dit is alweer de tweede aflevering over misbruik en accountability in de anarchistische scene. Deze keer bespreken we dat aan de hand van een “universeel” gefictionaliseerd verhaal. Dit verhaal functioneert als een springplank, waarmee we de dynamiek van misbruik in de scene verder uitdiepen en in een breder perspectief proberen te plaatsen, dat verder gaat dan het bespreken van rotte appels. Daarnaast bevat dit cringeworthy verhaal een aantal problematische aannames, die we ook aan de kaak stellen. Gelukkig was Lou weer te gast om ons hiermee te helpen! —— Wil je meer weten? In ons eigen archief hebben we:  -Aflevering 25 over Giftige mannelijkheid en verkrachtingscultuur, -Aflevering 12 over Accountability en Grensoverschrijdend gedrag.

Policing harm in the polyamory and BDSM communities can be challenging. When consent is violated, when people are assaulted, when people commit assault... we often shy away from victim and perpetrator. In A.V. Flox's important first book, Disrupting the Bystander: When #metoo Happens Among Friends, we learn that we should do the opposite. We should surround people who have been harmed and people who harm with our human spirit to help them find space to heal.In this episode we discuss the book and the process of care it outlines for ourselves, for those harmed, and yes, for those who have harmed others. Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of assault, rape, bad actors, and how unsafe we really are in our "communities" without having each other's back.For a list of references, our social media,credits, and a transcript of this episode head to PodPodCvltCast.com !Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/PodPodCvltCast)

Right now there’s a whole lot of buzz about sex robots. Some people are really excited about them, and think we’ll be marrying robots by 2050. Other people are really worried about them, and are organizing whole campaigns against sex robots. This week, we travel to a future where sex robots are realized, and talk about everything from warranties to ethics.     [A note: if you listen to our show with or near young kids be aware that today’s episodes discusses the future of sex, and goes into some detail about sex toys, sex work and other sexy time things. If your kiddos are ready for a calm, reasonable discussion of sex and the sex industry, carry on! If you’re not there yet, that’s cool, but maybe skip this one.]    This week we have three experts helping us think through how we get to sex robots, and what we do when we get there. A.V. Flox is journalist who covers the intersection of sex, law and technology. She is very skeptical of all the sexbot hype, and says we have a long way to go before we’ll see anything remotely like an actual sex robot. Madeline Ashby is a science fiction writer and futurist who’s been a guest on the show before. A few of her books involve sex robots, and she thinks that before we get anything human we’ll start to see cartoony looking forms. And Shelly Ronen is a sociology PhD student at NYU who studies sex and sex object production. Ronen says that it’s possible we won’t demand full-on humanoid robots, but instead be totally satisfied by less human-like machines.     Together the three of them walk us through all the things we might have to sort out before and after the rise of the sex robots. How do you keep them clean? Where do you store them? What happens if they break? What will they look like? How do you handle the uncanny valley? Who should use them, and how does their existence impact sex workers?     You can read an optimistic take on sex robots in the book Love and Sex With Robots by David Levy and you can find more on Levy’s outlook on robots here. Levy is optimistic about sex robots — not only does he think they’re coming quickly, he also thinks they could have some very positive impacts. On the other side of the table is the Campaign Against Sex Robots. You can guess how they feel about these devices, and their argument is generally summed up here. Essentially, they feel that prostitution is bad, and sex robots would be a form of prostitution and encourage it, therefore sex robots are bad. This is an argument that many people disagree with, including sex workers who point out that many of them enjoy and would like to keep their jobs.     To top everything off, here are some fun fact about our long tradition of wanting to create and love female robots:    Robots were originally assumed to be male. The 1920's science fiction play R.U.R. that gave us the word robot also gave us the term for a female robot: a robotess.  The term "gynoid" (which you don't see quite as much anymore) was coined by the writer Gwyneth Jones in her 1985 novel Divine Endurance.  The term "fembot" first shows up in 1976, in a script for the show The Bionic Woman.  Brigitte Helm played "Maschinenmensch," the female robot in the iconic 1927 movie Metropolis. Apparently her costume was extremely uncomfortable, and other actors would apparently slip coins into various openings out of pity for her. She used those coins to buy chocolate.    Flash Forward is produced by me, Rose Eveleth, and is part of the Boing Boing podcast family. The intro music is by Asura and the outtro music is by Broke for Free. The illustration is by Matt Lubchansky. The music for our various sex robot commercials was by Alaclair, Strong Suit and BoxCat.
