En esta conversación partimos de las historias ‘Desierto' por Francisco Provedo y Monumentos por Pablo Franceschi. Por un lado, Desierto nos presenta la idea del lenguaje como una herramienta de colonización, que invisibiliza a ciertos seres vivos y las múltiples y diversas relaciones que existen en un territorio para finalmente convertir al paisaje en un lugar explotable y adquirir poder sobre el mismo. Por otro lado, en Monumentos el lenguaje es explorado como una manera de crear sentido desde un lugar más íntimo, pero apunta a esa misma cualidad del lenguaje: la de incidir en el mundo, no solamente en el mundo material, sino también espiritual. Escuchá esta conversación en donde los autores profundizan en cómo estas dos exploraciones y perspectivas sobre el lenguaje convergen en distintos lugares en sus procesos creativos Mira Desierto por Francisco Provedo Explorá ‘Monumentos' por Pablo FranceschiSuscribite en nuestro boletín gratuito para enterarte de nuevas publicaciones, eventos y talleres de no ficción creativa aquí: Seguí y suscribite a nuestro Podcast aquí.Ayudanos a continuar con nuestra misión de reconocer y honrar la interconexión entre nuestros mundos humanos y más-que-humanos a través de la no ficción creativa de autor.

Dans cet épisode passionnant de "La voix est livre", Nicolas Carreau nous fait découvrir les parcours aussi riches que singuliers de deux écrivains hors normes : Philippe Villain et Patrice Franceschi.Tout d'abord, nous plongeons dans l'intimité de Philippe Villain, auteur du roman autobiographique "Mauvais élève". Avec une plume à la fois délicate et sincère, il nous livre les épisodes marquants de sa jeunesse tumultueuse, entre un père alcoolique et des déboires scolaires qui l'ont poussé à se réinventer par la littérature. Loin du misérabilisme, Villain retrace avec finesse cette trajectoire qui l'a mené de l'échec scolaire à l'enseignement de la littérature à Naples. Un témoignage poignant sur la force de la lecture et de l'écriture pour surmonter les épreuves.Puis, c'est au tour de Patrice Franceschi, écrivain-aventurier, de nous ouvrir les portes de sa bibliothèque personnelle. Véritable globe-trotter des lettres, Franceschi nous fait partager sa passion dévorante pour la littérature, qu'il a emportée avec lui lors de ses expéditions aux quatre coins du monde. Des classiques de la philosophie antique aux romans d'Hemingway, en passant par les poèmes de Victor Hugo, cet homme aux multiples vies nous entraîne dans un voyage initiatique à travers les œuvres qui ont façonné sa vision du monde. Un plaidoyer vibrant en faveur du livre, compagnon indispensable de toute aventure.Notre équipe a utilisé un outil d'Intelligence artificielle via les technologies d'Audiomeans© pour accompagner la création de ce contenu écrit.
You Me At Six are set to kick off their Australian tour this week, starting in Brisbane on January 24. The run of shows - that extends through Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth - will feature very special guests Holding Absence, the band British rock bible Kerrang! labelled as British rock's “new leading light”.YOU ME AT SIX are one of the most beloved British rock bands of all time, having delivered multiple number 1 albums, dominating charts, racking up hundreds of millions of streams, selling out arenas and headlining festivals; and along the way crafting some of the catchiest pop-rock anthems of their generation. Bite My Tongue, Take on the World, Underdog, Beautiful Way, Room to Breathe… the list of classics seems almost endless. The band's revival of infectious and spirited pop-rock earned them a mass of fans worldwide, seeing them sell out show after show across the globe.Choosing to bring such a storied 20-year career to an end cannot be easy. Doing so with your original line-up, on your own terms, and with the band members remaining best of friends is unheard of. But as the saying goes, go out at the top of your game and You Me At Six are certainly doing that.Having shocked the rock world recently by announcing their imminent demise, the band are setting out on their greatest tour, delivering a career-spanning 2-hour set and determined to leave the fans with a truly special performance to remember them by. “We've got a plan to play songs from every single album and make it a real victory lap. And everyone feels like that. We've looked at the setlists and gone, ‘Cool – those five can stay, the rest is going to be stuff we haven't done for years. We want to have 50 songs ready to go so that each night we can constantly mix it up and make it special.”“When we started YMAS we were kids. We only ever wanted to travel and to experience life as a group of friends. We feel like on the eve of our 20th anniversary as a band, now is a good time to call time. “We're in a fortunate position where our fans still want to see us live and come celebrate the life of this band. So that is what we will do for 2024 and 2025. We can't wait to see our fans on the road.” explains frontman Josh Franceschi.Dave Griffiths caught up with Josh to find out a little more about what to expect and how much fun the band plans to have on their final tour to this country.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

(Natalicio de Rod Carew) Nació en 1945 a bordo del tren que recorría la ruta de Colón a Panamá. De ahí que recibiera el nombre del médico, Rodney Cline, que ayudó en el parto a su madre Olga. Era tal su pasión por el béisbol desde su infancia que su tío Joseph French contaba que «con un palo de escoba le pegaba sin fallar a más de cien pelotas de tenis».1 A los quince años de edad, se mudó de Panamá a Nueva York, donde pronto fue descubierto como un pelotero con un futuro prometedor. Ascendió rápidamente a las Ligas Menores, y firmó en 1964 con el equipo de Minnesota de la Liga Americana por cinco mil dólares. En cuestión de tres años no sólo debutó como titular de los Mellizos, sino que en esa temporada de 1967 conquistó el título de Novato del Año, luego de haber sido elegido para jugar segunda base en el Partido de las Estrellas a mediados de año. Jamás olvidaría ese partido, en el que jugó junto a astros de la talla de Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Hank Aaron, Juan Marichal, Orlando Cepeda y Roberto Clemente. A Clemente lo admiraba mucho desde su niñez. Ese fue el primero de dieciocho Partidos de las Estrellas consecutivos en que participaría hasta 1984, año previo a su retiro como jugador activo. Rod Carew nunca pudo jugar en una Serie Mundial, pero a lo largo de sus diecinueve temporadas en las Ligas Mayores, doce con los Mellizos de Minnesota y siete con los Angelinos de California, se destacó en casi todos los aspectos del juego. Se coronó siete veces campeón de bateo y tres veces bateador con más hits o imparables. Fue elegido el «Jugador más valioso» de la Liga Americana en 1977. Ese año terminó la temporada a sólo ocho hits de la marca de .400, con un promedio de .388, 50 puntos superior al segundo lugar, siendo ésa la diferencia más amplia en la historia del béisbol. Batió récord al robarse el plato siete veces en 1969. En su carrera acumuló en total diecisiete robos del plato y conectó 3.053 hits, el histórico hit número 3.000 con los Angelinos cuando jugaban contra su antiguo equipo de los Mellizos. A la postre, ambos equipos retirarían el número 29 de la camiseta con que jugó. Y terminó su carrera con un promedio acumulado de .328, promediando más de .300 durante quince años consecutivos. De ahí que fuera elegido lo más pronto posible al Salón de la Fama en 1991; que fuera seleccionado como uno de los cien mejores peloteros del siglo veinte; que en 1977 la revista Time le dedicara su portada, calificándolo como un genuino héroe panameño, y que la revista Sports Illustrated lo comparara con Picasso, diciendo que Carew «maneja el bate como Picasso su brocha».2 «Nosotros jugamos por amor al juego, y lo hicimos con pasión porque fue un sueño de niño jugar ante cincuenta mil personas —dijo Carew en una entrevista en noviembre de 2008—. Hoy es muy diferente; se está jugando por dinero, por el cheque grande»,3 señaló. Más vale que las nuevas generaciones de peloteros recobren esa pasión de antaño. «Porque el amor al dinero es la raíz de toda clase de males —nos advierte el apóstol Pablo—. Por codiciarlo, algunos se han desviado de la fe y se han causado muchísimos sinsabores.»4 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Alfredo A.

The Twenty Minute VC: Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch
Pedro Franceschi is the Co-Founder and CEO @ Brex, the AI-powered spend platform with tens of thousands of customers, including DoorDash, Coinbase, Robinhood and Roblox. Pedro has raised over $1.2BN for the company from the likes of Greenoaks, Ribbit, DST, Bond and YC. The latest reported valuation was $12.3BN. Before Brex, Pedro was the first person to “jailbreak” the iPhone 3G in Brazil and co-founded payments company Pagar.me with Dubugras when he was 15. In three years, Pedro scaled it to over 100 people and US$1.5 billion in transactions processed. In Today's Episode with Pedro Franceschi We Discuss: 1. The Challenge is in Your Own Head: Why does Pedro believe all founders underestimate their own mental health? When was Pedro most anxious/depressed in the Brex journey? Why? What have been the single biggest needle movers for increasing his own mental health? How does Pedro advise other founders struggling with their own mental health? 2. From a 13-Year-Old Hacker in Brazil to Billionaire in LA: How did Pedro come to make $200K on the internet when he was just 12? Does Pedro agree that the best founders always started entrepreneurial pursuits young? How does Pedro reflect on his own relationship to money today? How has it changed? Pedro has famously taken large secondaries, how did that impact his mindset? How does Pedro advise other founders and VCs when it comes to secondaries? 3. The Importance of the Idea: What Everyone Misunderstands: What does Pedro mean when he says everyone does not appreciate enough how important the idea selection process is? How does he advise founders entering this process? Why does Pedro believe it is not that easy for founder to just pivot to a new idea? How did YC almost miss out on investing in Brex, now a $12BN company, due to the original idea? 4. Brex vs Ramp: Who Wins: How does Pedro feel when I say, "Ramp have gotten ahead on marketing and visibility"? Why does Pedro believe that "Ramp is a marketing company"? What does he mean when he says "great products will win over time"? Why does Pedro fundamentally disagree with Ramp's positioning of the best companies focus on saving and their giving away their software for free? How does this market play out over time? Winner take all or gains split across several?

“Dance Talk” ® with Joanne and special guest, Betti Franceschi. In this episode of “Dance Talk” ® with Joanne Carey, join host Joanne Carey as she chats with a very Special Guest, 90 year old Betti Franceschi. She is an artist, painter, sculptor, and now new author. Betti joins me on her very first podcast interview where we talk about her lifelong love of ballet, dance, and art. A life-long stutterer, Betti talks about her constant search for grace in all things she does. She candidly shares that stuttering is seen as a lack of grace, but let me assure you- this beautiful lady is FILLED with grace and exudes it! Listen in as we laugh and share stories and learn about her new photography book that embodies the longevity of the elder dancer titled, Ageless Dancers. You are going to want to get this book and if you're like me, you are going to want to listen to this inspirational and light-filled lady over-and-over again! Betti Franceschi is an artist who has done a double major in school and in life: fine art and ballet. Born in 1934 and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, she studied ballet with Marguerite de Anguera at Indiana University, Bloomington, fine art with Roger Anliker at Carnegie Tech (now Carnegie Mellon), and art history with Rosalind Krauss at Hunter College. Her Still Point drawings—vertical-hatched, tightly realistic nude close-ups of dancers' centers—were published in London as a book (The Still Point, 1987) designed by Simon Rendall, which won six nominations to the National Trust Show in London and Frankfurt, and were exhibited at Sadlers Wells in London, the National Museum of Dance in Saratoga Springs, New York, and the Philharmonic Center in Naples, Florida, among other venues. Her explosive, almost abstract, zen-calligraphic Signature Drawings (1983–1986) of dancers in motion, have been exhibited in several venues, including the New York State Theater, home of the New York City Ballet. Her early work was mostly portraits, then turned to focus on movement, with figure drawings and paintings, and later sculptures of dancers. In 2016 her interest in gesture brought her to photography for her Ageless Dancers project, a series of elegant, joyous portraits of dancers in the latter years of life. Her work has been reviewed in the London Evening Standard, The New York Times, the Saratogian, the New York City Ballet Playbill, and Dance Magazine. Franceschi lives in New York City.

As Co-Founders and Co-CEOs of fintech startup Brex, Henrique Dubugras and Pedro Franceschi are true “friendpreneurs” – and they're not even 30 years old. As teens, they met over Twitter in Brazil, hacking and jailbreaking their way through high school. After their payment startup Pagar.me (“basically the Stripe of Brazil”) achieved success, they left Brazil for Silicon Valley, where they used their unique insight into the payments landscape to start Brex in 2017. Originally offering credit cards to startups, Brex has moved and scaled at incredible speed, reaching $100 million in revenue just 18 months after launch, and expanding from credit cards into a global spend management platform that both startups and enterprise customers rely on. Today, the company is valued at more than $12 billion. But scaling this big, this fast hasn't always been smooth. Henrique and Pedro share their journey, wisdom, and experience managing risk and making tough decisions and pivots. They also explain how their complementary skillsets, friendship, drive, and long-view approach fuel their ambition to build Brex into a global fintech powerhouse – one that's challenging established financial services and payments players.

C dans l'air l'invité, du 29 septembre avec Michel Vergé-Franceschi, historien et spécialiste de l'histoire de la Corse. Lors d'un déplacement en Corse, Emmanuel Macron a proposé qu'une "nouvelle étape soit franchie" avec "une autonomie pour la Corse", qui ne soit "ni contre l'État ni sans l'État". Il a par ailleurs proposé une période de six mois pour que les groupes politiques corses, des indépendantistes à la droite, parviennent à un "accord" avec le gouvernement pour mener à un "texte constitutionnel et organique" qui pourrait alors être présenté à Paris. De son côté, Gilles Simeoni, le président de l'exécutif corse s'est exprimé ce jeudi après le discours du chef de l'État. Selon lui, il y a "une ouverture, mais tout reste à faire". Michel Vergé-Franceschi, historien et spécialiste de l'histoire de la Corse, reviendra sur les annonces faites par Emmanuel Macron qui a ouvert la porte à une autonomie pour la Corse.
