The second in a series of stories we're sharing in partnership with the Center for Humans and Nature, this narrated essay by Aboriginal scholar Tyson Yunkaporta explores the ways we've long mistaken cerebral thinking for knowing, and in doing so, dulled a more vital intelligence. He argues that we are “overthinking and underfeeling” our existence, and reminds us that we have a second brain: the gut, which “governs terrestrial relations and is in constant communication with land and all our human and nonhuman kin.” Likening our intellect to lightning, Tyson shares how we must let it interact with the regenerative and relational “fire” of our bellies if we are to respond properly to the needs of land and cosmos.  Read the essay.

"I find myself being too comfortable. If it gets too easy, maybe something is wrong and I need to shake things up." - Danaé GossetIn this captivating conversation, Danaé Gosset shares her remarkable transformation from a rebellious French student kicked out of multiple schools to becoming the founder of Pencil TV, a acclaimed mixed-media animation studio. Her journey reveals how embracing difficulty, trusting intuition, and finding the right mentors can turn chaos into creative gold. Danaé discusses her unique approach to stop-motion animation, the power of silent retreats for creative breakthroughs, and why she deliberately chooses the harder path in both her work and life decisions, including her upcoming move from Paris to Los Angeles.Key takeaways:Embrace the difficult path - Choosing harder processes often leads to more distinctive and meaningful creative work that stands out commerciallyTrust your inner compass - Even during chaotic periods, maintaining faith that "things will be okay" can guide you toward the right opportunitiesCreate space for purposeless play - Not everything needs to serve a business goal; creative experimentation without agenda often becomes the source of breakthrough workBuild creative habits like fitness - Treat personal creative work as essential maintenance, like going to the gym, rather than a luxuryUse silence as a creative tool - Regular retreats from digital noise and social media can unlock deep creative insights and major life decisionsWork with obsessive dedication when you find your calling - When you discover your true medium, the intensity of focus that emerges can accelerate your career exponentiallySeparate personal and commercial work - Maintain clear boundaries between client projects and personal expression to preserve artistic integrity and business relationshipsTeachers appear when you're ready - Being open and prepared attracts the mentors and opportunities you need at exactly the right momentsUse healing practices to enhance creativity - Meditation, mindfulness, and therapeutic work can transform rebellious energy into productive creative fuelPut out the work you want to be hired for - The most effective portfolio strategy is creating personal projects that demonstrate exactly what you want to do professionally Mindful Creative: How to understand and deal with the highs and lows of creative life, career and business Paperback and Kindle > https://amzn.to/4biTwFcFree audiobook (with Audible trial) > https://geni.us/free-audiobookSigned books https://novemberuniverse.co.ukLux Coffee Co. https://luxcoffee.co.uk/ (Use: PODCAST for 15% off)November Universe https://novemberuniverse.co.uk (Use: PODCAST for 10% off)

In this episode, the storyteller, Kathy Shimpock, will continue her discussion of the Danish folktale, “Prince Lindworm.”  We began our analysis in the last episode, but there is much more to share.  This story is filled with metaphors and symbols.  It can be viewed in many ways. That fact alone emphasizes the power of folktales to bring understanding and healing to issues we deal with today.Story:  East of the Sun and West of the Moon: Old Tales from the North, illus.

NOTED. (RELENTLESSLY)—When a company publishes a magazine, or at least an “editorial” product, for whatever reason, it is called custom publishing. I have a long editorial background in custom. And custom has a surprisingly long history itself.How long?John Deere started publishing The Furrow in 1895. The Michelin Star started as a form of custom content: what better way to sell tires to monied Parisians than by enticing them to take a drive to the countryside to try a great restaurant?Amex Publishing famously published Travel + Leisure among other titles for decades. That in-flight magazine you once enjoyed on your flight overseas? That, too, is custom publishing.Now, after some down years, custom publishing is leaning waaaaay into print again. Henrybuilt is an industry leader in designing and constructing well-built products and furnishings for the home. Henrybuilt is not, however, a company that you would think is screaming for a magazine.But the qualities that make a great magazine—attention to detail and craft, the curation of ideas, hard work—are the very qualities that have made Untapped, a “design journal that looks back to look forward.” Led by editor-in-chief Tiffany Jow, Untapped is a smart, well-designed magazine that avoids the pitfalls of most design journals in being free of jargon and thus accessible.With an enviable level of editorial freedom, Jow has created an editorial product that richly explores livable spaces and champions “ideas-driven work.” The result is a growing media entity across platforms independent of Henrybuilt while hewing closely to its brand. It's good stuff.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Lets talk about developing your own Worldbuilding Process...Below is in Automagically generated summary so you can check out the content and also to help with search functionality!---In this episode, I dive deep into finding your unique creative process for world-building and storytelling. As someone who's been a professional artist for over 20 years, I've learned that while there's plenty of advice out there on "the right way" to create, what truly matters is discovering YOUR way. I explore how different creators approach their work - from visual directors like James Cameron who start with powerful images (like the T-800 emerging from flames in a fever dream), to writers who begin with character perspectives, to interactive designers who focus on player experiences.What I've discovered through my own journey is that creative processes are inherently messy and often illogical. When creating my fantasy comic, I struggled following traditional writing advice until I realized my process worked better starting with character visuals first, then developing stories around them. I also found that writing from each character's first-person perspective helped me understand their motivations and create authentic conflict. The key insight is that constraints and limitations often fuel creativity rather than hinder it - so don't be afraid to experiment with your own "weird" methods. Your unique creative approach isn't something you'll find in books; it's something you'll discover through practice, experimentation, and embracing your natural tendencies.—00:00 Intro01:12 Welcome02:28 The Importance of YOUR Creative Process03:31 How Are Great Things Made?10:35 Creative Process Needs a Focus14:31 Anchoring Your Ideas19:06 The Journey of Discovering Your Process27:33 Analytical Takeaway29:18 Simple Takeaway29:47 Practical Takeaway31:44 Philosophical Takeaway34:41 Out—The Visual Scholar Podcast is designed to help you demystify the world of Art, Productivity, and Creativity.

Les Nuées protectrices d'Hachem accompagnaient jour et nuit les Bné Israël dans le désert. Ils se déplaçaient d'un endroit à l'autre en fonction de la Nuée, c'est-à-dire en fonction de la volonté d'Hachem, en s'en remettant exclusivement à Lui, même si cela ne correspondait pas à leur propre volonté. De là, on en déduit que c'est uniquement avec l'aide de D.ieu que les Juifs peuvent entreprendre ce qu'ils doivent accomplir, et conformément à la volonté d'Hachem. Illustration avec une histoire du Midrach et Eliahou Hanavi.

Par quoi commencer pour créer une formation ?Créer une formation artistique quand on a déjà des articles, des coachings, une audience… ça semble être la suite logique, non ?Et pourtant, quand vient le moment de structurer tout ça, on se retrouve face à une montagne de questions.

Over the next month we'll be sharing four stories in partnership with the Center for Humans and Nature. In this first one, author Sophie Strand uses her imagination to feel herself as part of the more-than-human world—as river, hummingbird, and mycelial network. Opening herself up to a “supracellular” state, she practices letting her mind leak beyond the bounds of individual consciousness and through the threads of relation that she shares with her ecosystem to experience being not a siloed self, but a web of interconnectivity. What empathy might take root and grow, she asks, when we practice thinking like this—when we imagine our consciousness to extend far beyond the confines of our own bodies? Read the essay.

THE SYSTEM WORKS—When I decided to launch this podcast back in 2019, it didn't take me long to realize that I didn't want to do it alone. The first person I called? Today's guest, Debra Bishop.I've known Deb a little bit for a long time, but well enough to know her insight, humor, and world view would elevate every conversation we'd have. But also, and more importantly, she is without question one of the most consequential editorial designers working today. Deb has helped define the visual and structural DNA of some of the most iconic media brands of the last few decades, from Martha Stewart's Blueprint, to More Magazine, and now, to The New York Times for Kids.What sets Deb apart is not just her eye, but her mind. She's a master of creating editorial systems—cohesive, flexible frameworks that hold entire magazines together, giving them both structure and soul. Her designs guide readers effortlessly, creating rhythm, clarity, and a sense of trust.Deb never overdesigns or distracts—she amplifies. Her layouts are confident, elegant, quietly powerful, and often these days, lots of fun. And as a leader and mentor, she's shaped not just magazines but careers. She's helped raise the standard for what editorial design can be, and what a creative partnership should look like.Deb makes everything better: the work, the process, the people around her. Her influence is everywhere—including on this podcast—and I feel incredibly lucky to call her a friend and colleague.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

After 20+ years as a professional artist, I've seen how easy it is to fall into either spending too much time developing intricate world details without purpose, or rushing into stories that lack depth and unique characteristics. The real magic happens when these two elements work together harmoniously.I explore how effective lore provides coherency and limitations that actually enhance dramatic tension rather than restrict it. Whether it's how the Force works in Star Wars or magic functions in Harry Potter, these rules become essential plot points that drive character development and narrative arcs. The best creative works use their unique world elements to create situations that couldn't exist any other way. When developing your own artistic projects, focus on creating environments, creatures, and systems that naturally generate dramatic tension and compelling character interactions. This approach will take your world-building to another level, making your stories resonate with audiences on a deeper level.—00:00 Intro01:35 Welcome02:51 Preface04:55 Why Is This An Important Discussion To Have?10:29 What is "Lore"17:43 What is 'Story'22:58 The Power of Combining Lore and Story28:11 The Analytical Takeaway30:14 The Simple Takeaway30:51 The Practical Takeaway33:43 The Philosophical Takeaway36:12 Out—The Visual Scholar Podcast is designed to help you demystify the world of Art, Productivity, and Creativity.

A heavy mixture of flies came into the house of Pharaoh and the house of his servants and into all the land of Egypt. The land was ruined because of the presence of the mixture of flies. 25 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron and said: Go! Sacrifice to your Elohim in the land. 26 Yet Moses said: It is not the established custom to do so, for we shall sacrifice that which is an abhorrence of the Egyptians to Yahweh our Elohim. Behold, should we sacrifice an abhorrence of the Egyptians before their eyes, would they not stone us? 27 A way of three days shall we go into the wilderness and sacrifice to Yahweh our Elohim, just as He said to us. 28So Pharaoh said: I shall dismiss you, that you may sacrifice to Yahweh your Elohim in the wilderness, but you shall not fare far, not far to go. Make an entreaty about me. 29 And Moses said: Behold, I am going forth from you, and I will make an entreaty to Yahweh that the mixture of flies withdraw from Pharaoh, from his servants and from his people tomorrow. But Pharaoh must not continue to trifle in not dismissing the people to sacrifice to Yahweh. 30 Then Moses went forth from Pharaoh, and he entreated Yahweh. 31 And Yahweh did according to the word of Moses; and the mixture of flies withdrew from Pharaoh, from his servants and from his people. Not one remained. 32 Yet Pharaoh gloried in his heart, even at this time, and he did not dismiss the people.

Entre tensions commerciales, pressions écologiques et hausse des coûts, les compagnies doivent composer avec un contexte économique nettement moins favorable, malgré une demande toujours soutenue. Décryptage. C'est dans un climat d'incertitudes que les compagnies aériennes mondiales participent, cette semaine à New Delhi, au sommet annuel de l'Association internationale du transport aérien (IATA). Première annonce majeure: les prévisions pour 2025 ont été revues à la baisse, en raison de ce que l'on qualifie de « vents contraires » pour l'économie mondiale. En première ligne, la guerre commerciale relancée par Donald Trump. Depuis avril, les États-Unis imposent une taxe de 10% sur les avions et composants aéronautiques produits hors de leurs frontières. Résultat, Airbus, le géant européen, fait face à des surcoûts lorsqu'il vend à des compagnies américaines. Et son concurrent Boeing n'est pas épargné non plus, en subissant des mesures de rétorsion similaires en Chine et en Europe. Ces tensions impactent directement les compagnies aériennes, qui absorbent ces hausses de coûts, parfois accompagnées de retards de livraison. Cela se traduit par une réduction des vols internationaux et une rentabilité mise à mal.Virage écologique contrariéAutre difficulté, la transition énergétique du secteur, essentielle pour atteindre la neutralité carbone d'ici 2050, se trouve elle aussi freinée. Les compagnies misaient sur des subventions américaines pour les carburants d'aviation durables, un levier important pour investir dans une flotte plus écologique. Or, cette aide a été supprimée par Donald Trump. Une décision qui prive les transporteurs américains d'un avantage concurrentiel précieux, estimé à plusieurs milliards de dollars. À cela s'ajoute une forte baisse des déplacements en classe affaires, conséquence d'un climat économique peu propice aux échanges internationaux. Moins de voyages professionnels, c'est aussi moins de revenus pour les compagnies, qui voient leur modèle économique traditionnel remis en question.Une demande en croissance mais des marges sous pressionParadoxalement, la demande pour le transport aérien reste bien orientée. L'Inde, hôte du sommet, a doublé en dix ans son nombre de passagers et d'aéroports. En Afrique et au Moyen-Orient, la croissance du trafic dépasse les 14 %, là où l'Amérique du Nord plafonne à +1,6 %, malgré le fait qu'elle représente un quart du marché mondial. Même le fret aérien se porte bien, dopé par les anticipations liées aux hausses de droits de douane. Mais derrière cette dynamique, les compagnies doivent faire face à une pression accrue sur leurs revenus par siège. Résultat: des ajustements économiques nécessaires pour absorber les surcoûts. Si le chiffre d'affaires mondial du secteur devrait atteindre un nouveau record en 2025 — plus de 1000 milliards de dollars —, les marges restent stables. Illustration d'un changement d'époque pour une industrie autrefois focalisée sur la croissance des profits, désormais contrainte de maîtriser ses dépenses.À lire aussiInde: boom dans le secteur du transport aérien

DOWNLOAD KEYNOTE SLIDES Sermon Summary: "Live in the House of Wisdom" by Dr. Bryan Hudson Pastor Bryan Hudson delivers a powerful and practical message rooted in the wisdom literature of Scripture, particularly the book of Proverbs. The central theme of the sermon is an invitation not merely to admire or visit wisdom, but to live in the house of wisdom—to make it our dwelling place and guiding principle. Purpose of Proverbs (Proverbs 1:1–3) Proverbs is given to teach wisdom and discipline, to understand wise insights, and to help people do what is right, just, and fair. Discipline is emphasized—it's not what others do for you, but what you choose for yourself. Discipline leads to order, consistency, and purposeful living. The Structure of Wisdom (Proverbs 24:3–4) Wisdom builds the house Understanding establishes it Knowledge furnishes it with pleasant and precious things This creates a metaphorical structure: Wisdom = the house, Understanding = the foundation, Knowledge = the furniture. This priority counters worldly assumptions—knowledge is not enough; it must be applied through wisdom and guided by understanding. Illustration of Wisdom with Cooking Knowledge is like having the recipe and ingredients. Understanding is knowing how to use them. Wisdom is putting it all together effectively and appropriately. Path Principle and Decision-Making Proverbs teaches to ponder the path of your feet (Proverbs 4:26). Life is about the paths we walk, not merely our intentions. Just as walking on a moving walkway takes you in a fixed direction, so do life choices—you arrive where the path leads, regardless of your good intentions. Living in God's Wisdom vs. Worldly Lack There is both abundance and lack in the world—not only materially but spiritually. There's a famine of hearing the Word of the Lord (Amos 8:11), despite abundance all around. True abundance is not material wealth, but spiritual richness, rooted in wisdom and relationship with God. Warnings and Encouragement Covetousness is a danger—desiring something just because someone else has it. Jesus was not poor, but He lived simply. True wealth is in wisdom and purpose, not possessions. Don't lower yourself or dilute your wisdom to fit in—let others rise to the level of truth and light. Mind of Christ God's ways and thoughts are higher (Isaiah 55:8–9), but they are not unattainable—we must rise to them. Believers have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16), giving access to divine wisdom. Final Call: Choose Wisdom Daily God's wisdom is a path, not just an idea. Living wisely leads to stability, fulfillment, and God-directed success. Don't just visit the house of wisdom—live there. Closing Prayer Dr. Hudson ends with a prayer of thanksgiving, asking God to help believers live in the house of wisdom and guide others into the same. Summary Phrase: "Let's not just visit the house of wisdom—let's live in it." This message is both instructional and deeply spiritual, calling believers to a lifestyle rooted in God's wisdom, discernment, and understanding.

A BETTER-BUILT MAGAZINE—When a company publishes a magazine, or at least an “editorial” product, for whatever reason, it is called custom publishing. I have a long editorial background in custom. And custom has a surprisingly long history itself.How long?John Deere started publishing The Furrow in 1895. The Michelin Star started as a form of custom content: what better way to sell tires to monied Parisians than by enticing them to take a drive to the countryside to try a great restaurant?Amex Publishing famously published Travel + Leisure among other titles for decades. That in-flight magazine you once enjoyed on your flight overseas? That, too, is custom publishing.Now, after some down years, custom publishing is leaning waaaaay into print again. Henrybuilt is an industry leader in designing and constructing well-built products and furnishings for the home. Henrybuilt is not, however, a company that you would think is screaming for a magazine.But the qualities that make a great magazine—attention to detail and craft, the curation of ideas, hard work—are the very qualities that have made Untapped, a “design journal that looks back to look forward.” Led by editor-in-chief Tiffany Jow, Untapped is a smart, well-designed magazine that avoids the pitfalls of most design journals in being free of jargon and thus accessible.With an enviable level of editorial freedom, Jow has created an editorial product that richly explores livable spaces and champions “ideas-driven work.” The result is a growing media entity across platforms independent of Henrybuilt while hewing closely to its brand. It's good stuff.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

In this episode, I share my thoughts on the difficult but exciting journey of rewilding my illustration process—bringing back more analog, handmade elements into the way I work. While the dream of working more physically is alive and well, the reality is a lot more complicated. In this monologue episode, I unpack six core problems I've identified as I try to rewild in real life, and I talk through some solutions, mindset shifts, and small actions I'm taking to move forward.If you've ever felt stuck between your current style and the one you wish you had, or if you're navigating your own transition as a creative, this episode might hit home.I also share some personal updates, what's coming up with my classes and book, and an embarrassing story from my recent trip to Paris that involves vintage books, broken French, and a stranger's purse.IN THIS EPISODEWhy rewilding your process is easier said than doneSix problems I've identified on my rewilding journeyHow I'm coaching myself through a style evolutionWhy confidence in your style is often externalPLUS – Embarrassing Story of the Episode: A Canadian in ParisSHOW LINKSDrawing is Important (Skillshare Class) – https://skl.sh/3TuA0NSThe Style Class on Skillshare – https://skl.sh/4cFnIejDrawing Is Important (Sketchbook IG) – http://www.instagram.com/drawingisimportantMy Website – http://www.tomfroese.comHOW TO SUPPORTShare this episode with your friends!Like / Subscribe / Follow / Comment / ReviewBecome a $3 Supporter or $8 Drawing Buddy on Patreon – http://patreon.com/tomfroeseBECOME A DRAWING BUDDYLive, monthly Draw With Me meetupsAll past DWMs available as replaysExclusive access to the DWM Discord Serverhttp://patreon.com/tomfroeseFIND ME ELSEWHEREWork and Classes – http://www.tomfroese.comInstagram – http://www.instagram.com/mrtomfroeseDaily Drawings – http://www.instagram.com/drawingisimportantCREDITSMusic and Cues by Mark Allan Falk – http://www.linktr.ee/semiathletic

I explain how developing world building skills adds depth, nuance, and authenticity to your art that technical craft alone cannot achieve. When we understand the "why" behind what we're creating—whether it's who our characters are, where they come from, or how the environments we draw were built—our art becomes more compelling and relatable, even at the sketch stage.I break down three key benefits of strengthening your world building abilities: it solves the "what do I draw" problem by giving you direction and purpose; it helps you create more unique, nuanced ideas by encouraging deeper exploration; and it helps you connect with your audience by providing context they can relate to. Just like actors need authentic costumes and sets to embody characters convincingly, artists need to understand the worlds they're depicting to make them feel real. The more you understand your world's details, the easier it becomes to communicate unspoken elements through your art in a way that resonates with viewers.—00:00 Intro01:01 Welcome02:17 The Importance of Worldbuilding05:10 How Can Worldbuilding Help Artists?12:49 Creating More Unique Ideas23:49 Worldbuilding and Story33:17 The Analytical Takeaway34:29 The Simple Takeaway35:00 The Practical Takeaway40:11 The Philosophical Takeaway41:18 Out—The Visual Scholar Podcast is designed to help you demystify the world of Art, Productivity, and Creativity.

THE PERSON BEHIND THE PERSON BEHIND THE CAMERA—Close your eyes and picture a classic Rolling Stone cover. Dozens probably come to mind—portraits of music legends, movie stars, political icons, cultural rebels. Bruce. Bono. Madonna. These images are etched into our cultural memory as more than mere photographs. They're statements.But when we remember the cover, and maybe even the photographer, how often do we remember the person who made it all happen? The one who dreamed up the concept, found the right photographer, navigated the logistics, managed the personalities, and ultimately brought that unforgettable image to life?It's the photo editor. But who thinks about the photo editor?Photo editors are essential—especially at a magazine like Rolling Stone—for decades its covers defined our visual culture. Behind every iconic cover is a photo director making hundreds of invisible decisions under pressure and facing tight budgets, unpredictable talent, and shifting editorial winds. They're the ones keeping shoots on track when the talent shows up two hours late. They're the ones coaxing photographers into greatness—the person behind the people behind the camera. Photo editors are expected to be tastemakers, producers, diplomats, caterers, and art directors all at once. Although their work is everywhere, their names are not. They're under-thanked. Underseen. Too often unknown. This is the paradox of their work: When a shoot goes well, it looks effortless. When it doesn't, they take the bullet.Laurie Kratochvil, Rolling Stone's visionary director of photography from 1982 to 1994, knows this all too well.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

IT'S LE MONDE'S WORLD AND WE'RE JUST LIVING IN IT—Name a major newspaper—anywhere in the world—and you will find a magazine. Or two. Or three. The New York Times is the obvious example of this. The Times of London is another obvious example. And now more and more legacy newspapers from around the world are publishing their magazines in English.La Repubblica in Italy publishes D. And now France's venerable Le Monde is out with M International, a glossy biannual that distills their weekly M magazine for an English-speaking audience.Long called “the newspaper of reference” in France, Le Monde occupies an oversized space in the French media. When the Olympics returned to Paris, Le Monde decided to create an english version of their newspaper for the web. Then they decided to create the magazine—in English—something that not just added an extra piece of land to their media ecosystem, but one that pleased their advertisers as well. We spoke to Louis Dreyfus, the CEO of Le Monde about the business case for English, how the magazines attract new readers to the newspaper, the power of print, and how AI is one of the reasons Le Monde can create in english in the first place.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

Wir springen ins 2. Jahrtausend vor unserer Zeitrechnung.
