Episode 178 Chapter 37, Contemporary Software and Synthesis. Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music  Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast.

Fungal diseases are becoming more common, more dangerous, and more difficult to treat. There's concern that they may cause the next global pandemic. Rising global temperatures, better survival rates for vulnerable patients, and increased medical interventions contribute to the rise in fungal infections. Access to effective diagnostics and treatment remains limited, with significant disparities between high and low-income countries. Treating fungal infections is becoming more challenging as they build resistance to the drugs used to treat them. New therapies are being developed, including treatments that disrupt fungal DNA replication or interfere with essential proteins, offering some hope for long-term control.Contributors: Adilia Warris, Professor in Paediatric Infectious Diseases, University of Exeter, UKRita Oladele, Professor of Clinical Microbiology, University of Lagos and Lagos University Teaching Hospital, NigeriaArturo Casadevall, Professor and Chair of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, USMichael Bromley, Professor in Fungal Disease, University of Manchester, UKPresenter: Tanya Beckett Producer: Louise Clarke Researcher: Maeve Schaffer Editor: Tara McDermott Technical Producer: Richard Hannaford Production co-ordinator: Tammy Snow(Image: Aspergillus fumigatus, seen under an optical microscope.

Send us a textEpisode Summary: Dr. Andrew Chadeayne discusses the chemistry of psilocybin and other psychedelics, their potential therapeutic applications, and the challenges of commercializing them in a shifting biotech market. The conversation delves into the complexities of magic mushroom composition, debunking myths like "lemon tekking," and uncovers the booming, unregulated alternative products industry, including kratom and synthetic psilocybin analogs sold in vape shops.About the guest: Andrew Chadeayne, PhD is a chemist who also holds a law degree, specializing in patent law. He is the founder and CEO of CaaMTech, a startup specializing in the development of novel psychedelic compounds. Chadeayne collaborates with academic labs to advance psychedelic science while navigating the commercial landscape.Discussion Points:Psilocybin is a prodrug converted to psilocin, but magic mushrooms contain other psychoactive molecules like beta-carbolines, which may enhance effects by inhibiting degradation.Chadeayne's team develops psilocin prodrugs to shorten psychedelic trips, making clinical administration more manageable without altering effects.The "lemon tek" myth—that lemon juice converts psilocybin to psilocin—is false; it enhances absorption by extracting compounds, not altering chemistry.Magic mushroom bruising indicates psilocin degradation, as oxidized psilocin forms blue, inactive dimers.The multi-billion dollar alternative products industry sells kratom and synthetic psilocybin analogs, often mislabeled, in vape shops, raising safety and regulatory concerns.Kratom's minor alkaloid, 7-hydroxymitragynine, is ~40x more potent than morphine, with no reported overdoses but high habit-forming potential.Non-hallucinogenic serotonin 2A agonists, like those developed by CaaMTech's spinout, show promise for conditions like migraines without requiring a psychedelic trip.Related episode:M&M 71: Chemistry of Magic Mushrooms, DMT Analogues, Entourage Effects in Cannabis & Fungi, Novel Psychedelic Medicines, Psychedelic Startups | Andrew Chadeayne*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

With 24% of young university graduates unemployed in South Africa, Warren Mkhize found himself struggling to secure work in 2020. Then, during a thunderstorm, he spotted mushrooms growing from the ground, which spark an idea. Researching South Africa's mushroom industry, he discovered its high success rate and lack of barriers to entry. Seizing the opportunity, he founded MycoPro, cultivating organic oyster mushrooms in upcycled agricultural waste. From an initial 10kg yield, his team now supplies 300–400kg monthly to the SuperSpar Group and Asian markets. Mkhize is also promoting mushrooms as a nutritious meat alternative, educating people via social media. He aims to expand MycoPro into other provinces and is researching African psychedelic mushrooms for therapeutic use. “If regulations evolve like they did for cannabis,” he says, “we will explore it fully.”

Marcie Begleiter, an artist based on the Central Coast of California, talks about: artist residencies, including the Sitka Center for Art and Ecology, where she recently did a 4-week residency, including collecting biological specimens/samples; how her time and relationship with the residency evolves over those four weeks, which has lead to artistic breakthroughs; how she likes deadlines, and can structure her residency experience with the clock ticking and puts extra focus on what she's doing, and in addition having the support of the people running the residencies; the importance of the artist statement in applications for residencies; what her experience was like at Sitka, from where she stayed (at an offsite house as opposed to the onsite cabins) to how she spent her days and nights, and what her studio days are like on a residency vs. the studio where she lives; why she left New York (Manhattan) for, initially Taos, N.M., and eventually California (essentially she needed more access to nature); and the interdisciplinary program she started at Otis College of Art that focuses on social change in the community.  In the 2nd half of our conversation, which is available on our Patreon page, she talks about: how she's restarting the local CERT (citizen's emergency response training) training in her unincorporated town (of Los Osos, CA), partially inspired by not having much access out of her area in an emergency; how she and her husband came to leaving Los Angeles for Los Osos, back in 2015/16, after she toured extensively with her documentary on the artist Eva Hesse; the benefits of living in a small town (Los Osos) which she prefers to city life; the lucky circumstances of having a great studio space in a location where you wouldn't expect great studios; why she vastly prefers a studio outside her home; she breaks down the different type of residencies: 1) fully funded plus stipends…2) fully funded, no stipend….3) highly subsidized…4) paying full ride; and finally, she addresses our standard finishing questions: how does she feel like social media in this moment, and how success is defined across various careers in the arts.

From mouldy bread to athlete's foot, fungi don't exactly scream “home improvement.” But what if this misunderstood kingdom is the secret to the sustainable materials of the future?Listener Alexis - definitely not a gnome - wants to know how much of our homes we could build with fungi. Professor Katie Field describes how the mushroom is the just tip of the iceberg - it's the network of thread-like filaments called mycelium where fungi really do their best work. Architect Phil Ayers explains how fungi, like yeast in bread, can bind waste products into firm, MDF-like blocks. And while we're not constructing skyscrapers with mushrooms just yet, it turns out fungi-based materials are already making waves in interior design. Think sound-absorbing wall panels or insulation that's both eco-friendly and chic.And here's a cool one: mushroom leather! Using discarded stalks from mushroom farms, one company is crafting strong, flexible material for trainers, handbags, and even car dashboards. Move over, cows - mushrooms are pushing their way up.Oh, and NASA? They're dreaming big with fungi too - to grow habitats in space. From mould...to the moon!

Part 1 Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake Summary"Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures" by Merlin Sheldrake is an exploration of the fascinating and complex world of fungi, highlighting their vital role in ecosystems and their impact on life on Earth. Here are the key points and themes from the book:Fungi as Fundamental Organisms: Sheldrake emphasizes that fungi are not just decomposers; they are central to many ecological processes. They form symbiotic relationships with plants, animals, and other organisms, contributing to nutrient cycling and ecosystem health.Mycelium Networks: The book introduces readers to mycelium, the vast underground networks of fungal threads that connect plants and trees, often referred to as the "Wood Wide Web". These networks allow for communication and resource sharing among plants, demonstrating an intricate web of interdependence in nature.Interactions with Life: Sheldrake explores how fungi interact with various forms of life, including humans. He discusses how certain fungi can alter consciousness and perception, particularly through psychedelic experiences, suggesting that our relationship with fungi can influence our mental and emotional states.Fungus and Climate Change: The author examines the role of fungi in responding to and potentially mitigating climate change. Fungi play a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, sequestering carbon, and promoting soil health, which are essential in the fight against climatic shifts.Fungi in Medicine and Science: Sheldrake highlights how fungi have been pivotal in medical advancements, such as the discovery of penicillin and the development of various antibiotics. He also discusses current research exploring the use of fungi in bioremediation and other innovative environmental solutions.Fungi and the Unseen World: The book delves into the concept of mycology as a lens to view unseen processes in the world. Fungi challenge human perceptions of life and death, individuality and community, suggesting a more interconnected view of existence.Philosophical Reflections: Throughout the narrative, Sheldrake weaves philosophical reflections on the nature of life, equity in ecosystems, and the need for a holistic approach to environmental issues. He calls for a deeper appreciation of fungi's roles and, by extension, a reevaluation of our relations with nature.In essence, "Entangled Life" is a celebration of fungi, revealing their hidden complexities and urging readers to recognize their profound impact on our world, encouraging a shift in perspective towards appreciating interconnectedness in nature.Part 2 Entangled Life AuthorMerlin Sheldrake is a biologist and author known for his research on fungi and their ecological roles. His widely acclaimed book, "Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures," was released on August 20, 2020. The book explores the complex relationships between fungi and other life forms and examines their impact on ecosystems, human culture, and even our minds.In addition to "Entangled Life," Sheldrake has contributed to various scientific writings and has also co-authored works related to biology and ecology. However, "Entangled Life" stands out as his flagship book, garnering significant attention and praise for its engaging narrative and insightful exploration of mycology.As of October 2023, "Entangled Life" remains his most notable work due to its achievements, including:Winning several awards, such as the 2021 James Beard Foundation Book Award for Best Cookbook and other literary recognitions.Receiving acclaim for its accessibility and thought-provoking content, making complex scientific ideas comprehensible to a broad audience.As for editions, the initial hardcover edition is often regarded as the best due to its...

If your brain feels foggy, your mood swings like a pendulum, or your cravings seem to control you—this episode will flip what you think you know about your body and your mind. Because what if your thoughts… aren't really yours? In this mind-altering episode of The Human Upgrade, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals a startling new theory: your gut microbiome might be controlling your thoughts. From addiction and depression to obesity and inflammation, the microbes living in your gut—bacteria, fungi, viruses, even parasites—may be pulling the strings on your brain chemistry, mood, and behavior. Dave Asprey and Dr. Gundry dive deep into The Gut-Brain Paradox, exposing how the gut-brain axis operates more like a microbial command center than a digestive system. You'll learn why probiotic pills rarely work, how the wrong microbes can drive compulsive behavior, and how toxic foods, glyphosate, and antibiotics have turned our guts into neurological war zones. Most shocking of all? Microbes may not just influence addiction—they may cause it. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How your gut microbiome can hijack your brain and influence your thoughts and behavior • Why certain microbes may actually cause addiction, obesity, and depression • How antibiotics, glyphosate, and processed foods are turning your gut into a desert • How to rebuild your gut ecosystem using postbiotics, fermented foods, and precision inputs • Why food cravings might be microbial mind control—and what to do about it • What the latest science reveals about the gut-brain axis, neurotransmitters, and neuroinflammation Sponsors: -Sunlighten | Go to https://www.sunlighten.com/dave/ and enter code DAVE at checkout to save up to $1,400. -Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order.

Fungal networks in the ground ferry crucial nutrients to plants. But how do brainless organisms form complex supply chain networks? Also, in this year's baseball spring training, the new Automated Ball-Strike System is helping settle challenges to home plate pitch calls.Scientists Observe Fungi Creating Complex Supply ChainsAs the leaves start to pop out, it's natural to look up and admire the trees. But actually, there's a lot of action happening underneath your feet. Beneath you is a complex network of fungal trade routes carrying essential nutrients to the roots of plants, mined from the soil by fungus. It's a subterranean supply chain.But how exactly do these complex networks form? How does the fungus decide where to ship which resources, or where to build roads? Basically, how does a brainless thread make decisions?Host Flora Lichtman is joined by Dr. Toby Kiers, an author on a recent study of those networks, and professor of evolutionary biology at Vrije University in Amsterdam. She's also the executive director of the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks (SPUN).A Rookie Robot Umpire Takes The FieldBaseball fans are eagerly awaiting opening day. And while spring training is a time for teams to test out new players and strategies, it's also a time for Major League Baseball to trial new rules and procedures. One of the things that the league has been testing this year is a robotic system to call balls and strikes.The Automated Ball-Strike System, which is based on the same technology used for line judging in tennis, isn't calling every pitch, but is used to back up a challenge system at the plate. The tech is already in use in Triple-A games, and could make it to the major leagues in the years ahead. Baseball writer Davy Andrews joins Host Ira Flatow to talk about the technology, and how it could subtly change the rules of the game.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
