In this episode, JF and Phil are joined by Jacob G. Foster—sociologist, physicist, and researcher at Indiana University Bloomington and the Santa Fe Institute—for a conversation about their recent collaboration in Daedalus, the journal of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Their co-authored essay, “Care of the Dead,” explores how the dead continue to shape our cultures, languages, and ways of being. Together, they discuss the process of writing the piece and what it means to say that the dead are not gone—that they persist, and that they make claims on the living.

Episode 137: Collective Effervescence Don't be jelly, but we're having a blast with three poems from the poet Han VanderHart in this episode! You can join in on the fizzing of our collective effervescence by just tuning in. We find the conversation naturally turning towards John Berger's Ways of Seeing, taking in the pipe as a fairly recent newcomer as a punctuation mark in poetry, and the concept of absolute zero, alongside much, much more. Poetic themes of truth, love, and the power of “No” sit at the center of our conversation. Oh, and Marion deftly keeps Kathy in the conversation when technology unexpectedly steals her voice! (Be sure to check out the painting Truth Coming Out of Her Well, the inspiration for the first poem, an ekphrastic, that we discuss. It's a painting that has inspired some cool tattoo art!) At the table: Marion Wrenn, Kathleen Volk Miller, Jason Schneiderman, Divina Boko, Lisa Zerkle, Dagne Forrest, Lillie Volpe (sound engineer) Han VanderHart grew up on a small-scale farm in Virginia, and now lives in North Carolina, under the pines with their long term partner, two children, four cats, two dogs, and a Diva koi Beta fish named Caroline (long I). Their favorite flower is all of them, with the exception of the gerber daisy, which looks fake. Han is the author of Larks (Ohio, 2025) and What Pecan Light (BCP, 2021), and hosts Of Poetry Podcast and co-edits River River Books with Amorak Huey.

Faye Toogood is perhaps best known for her Roly-Poly chair, among the more famous pieces of furniture to come out of the 2010s and take over the zeitgeist, but the London-based designer's artistry and craft runs much deeper and spans much wider. She began finding, collecting, cataloging, producing, and editing her “assemblages” long before she ever had a name for them, and her design career has been marked by exactly that, beginning with the debut of Assemblage 1 (2010) and through to her latest, Assemblage 8: Palette (2024). On the whole, Toogood's creations serve as material investigations and discipline-defying attempts to better understand herself. Without formal training in design, Toogood—who was the Designer of the Year at the Maison&Objet design fair in Paris this past January and the Stockholm Furniture Fair's Guest of Honor in February—uses what she describes as the feeling of being “a fraud in the room” to her advantage. Through her work, she is an enigma; with projects across furniture, interiors, fashion, and homewares, she's unwilling to be defined by a single output and has instead built a multilayered practice and belief system that allows her to be “all heart and hands.” On this week's Time Sensitive—our debut of Season 11—Toogood talks about the acts of creation and connection, and how each underscores the enduring play that's ever-present in her work.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Faye ToogoodToogood[3:49] Assemblage 1[7:43] Assemblage 7[13:28] Seamus Heaney[14:50] Isamu Noguchi[14:50] Kan Yasuda[17:23] Roly-Poly chair[18:06] Rachel Whiteread[20:07] Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden[22:45] Matisse Chapel[25:40] “Ways of Seeing”[29:57] “Womanifesto!”[36:55] Assemblage 8[52:17] “The World of Interiors”
In ‘a wonderful book about looking and learning' (Gavin Francis) retired GP Iona Heath relates the importance that John Berger's work and friendship had on her working life as a doctor in a deprived London borough. Five decades of engagement with Berger's work and twenty years of friendship with the man himself made her, she is convinced, a better doctor. Heath was in conversation about Berger's legacy, for medicine and beyond, with film director and screenwriter Sally Potter, who wrote, on the occasion of his 90th birthday, ‘[John Berger] reminds us how to think about Charlie Chaplin, how to listen to songs, how to rage about prisons, how to remember that everything matters.'

Welcome to the first episode of TGP NOMINAL Podcast for 2025. So, what happened to January? Well, with over three hours of content, spread over three episodes of the Christmas Crossover we thought you might have become fed up with us waffling on.

Originally published by The Stinging Fly Press in Ireland on 2015, Claire-Louise Bennett's POND found a wider audience with its UK publisher, the then nascent Fitzcarraldo Editions—the paradigm-shifting house that is currently celebrating its 10th birthday. POND is an extraordinarily erudite book, which wears that erudition extraordinarily lightly. It could be understood as being in dialogue with writers such as Huysmans, Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Plath, John Berger, as well as with any number of contemporary authors who feel determined that their books should be about something. But POND is also funny, earthy, dirty, silly, profound and confounding. In short, it is unlike anything else, the kind of book that defies the “if you liked this, you'll like that” algorithm. Just the kind of book we love at S&Co.Buy Pond: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/pond*Claire-Louise Bennett grew up in Wiltshire and studied literature and drama at the University of Roehampton, before moving to Ireland where she worked in and studied theatre for several years. In 2013 she was awarded the inaugural White Review Short Story Prize and went on to complete her debut book, Pond, which was shortlisted for the Dylan Thomas Prize in 2016. Checkout 19 was published by Jonathan Cape in 2021 and was part of the New York Times 10 Best Books of 2022 Selection.Claire-Louise's fiction and essays have appeared in a number of publications including The White Review, The Stinging Fly, gorse, Harper's Magazine, Vogue Italia, Music & Literature, and The New York Times magazine. She also writes about art and is a frequent contributor to frieze. In addition she has written for Tate etc., and Artforum, and a number of international exhibition catalogues. In 2016 she was writer-in-residence at Temple Bar Gallery & Studio. In 2020, Milan based art publisher Juxta Press published Fish Out Of Water, an essay Claire-Louise wrote in response to a self-portrait painting by Dorothea Tanning.

When we left off last week, we had learned about The Dating Game contestant Rodney Alcala's assault of 8-year-old Tali and his first murder victim in NYC (at least, the first that we know of).We also reveled in the fact that a couple of his school-aged campers recognized his photo on the FBI Most Wanted list hanging in the Post Office near their New Hampshire camp (and yes, he changed his name to John Berger and worked at a camp for young girls after the assault on Tali and the alleged first NYC Killing). And just to recap, at this point in this confusing back and forth timeline, he is now a registered sex offender is about to land a job working for the LA Times, despite that registered sex offender status and finding himself in jail a couple times before appearing on The Dating Game show in 1978.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Még a két héttel ezelőtti adás közben/után merült fel (itt tessék meghallgatni, ha kimaradt), hogy egész egyszerűen nem tudunk jól beszélni a saját testünkről, egyes testrészeinknek már a megnevezése is nehéz. A mai adásban ezt járjuk körül: mi van a testünkkel, miért vagyunk folyton elégedetlenek vele, és hogyan kéne elfogadnunk? Vendégünk Szántó Saci, tanár és képzőművész. Részletesebben: 00:00 - Jubileumi adás, matematikai készségeink felvillantása. 02:25 - Megismerkedünk a kazuárral és egyéb állatokkal, megpróbáljuk körülírni a saját testünket. 12:12 - Vicces, de senki se mondta, hogy egészséges. A kényelmesség elfogadása, meg a mögötte lévő évtizedes munka. 14:45 - Számok, számok, számok. Fontos kiemelni, hogy a nők testképével kapcsolatos kutatások jelentős része valamilyen szépségipari termék gyártójához kötődik (khm). 20:11 - A testünk, mint alkatrészek összessége, és nem mint egész. 24:21 - Luxus-e a testképzavar? Gyerekszemmel az átlagostól való eltérés. Családi háttér és a média befolyása. 31:13 - De akkor mi van a milói Vénusszal - pláne úgy, hogy egyértelműen összekevertük a willendorfi Vénusszal? Szépségideálok történelmi távlatban. 36:46 - Megtanulunk nézni. Természetesen eljutunk a pornóig is. Testrészkultusz. 42:47 - Van-e szabad akaratom abban, hogy kinek a segge tetszik? 50:47 - Elsoroltunk az összes testképzavarunkat, akkor most már valahogy ki is kéne lépni ebből. De ne közösségi médiás csoportokban keresgéljünk. 53:32 - Body positivity: jó, persze, de úgyis csak megpróbálnak neked eladni valamit. Ettől függetlenül sok csoportnak igenis fontos, hogy reprezentálva legyenek. Mert megerősíti őket. 1:01:26 - Beszéljünk a szép női testekről végre. A rajz terápiás hatása. Almát rajzolni nehéz, de mondjuk létrát könnyű. Amikor Bacsó Béla megfejtette David Beckhamet. 1:07:57 - Na de ezzel szemben a múzeum! Az nem biztos, hogy jót tesz az önértékelésednek. Feministaként végigsétálni egy múzeumban: szerencsére már elmúltak a hetvenes évek. Meztelen modellek rajzolása. Vagy nájlonzacskóké (innen jött a cím). 01:18:22 - Jó tanácsok nem patológiás eseteknek. Megöregedtünk, baszki. 01:24:29 - Valahol itt kellett volna lezárni az adást. Nézni és olvasnivalók: Így néz ki egy kazuár, és itt egy videó a szuperokos polipokról. Ez meg itt a kenyértest vizuális definíciója. Méloszi Aphrodité (vagyis a milói Vénusz) vs. willendorfi vénusz. Tényleg könnyedén összekeverhetőek, ugye? Saci és Dása közös projektje, itt lehet még workshopokra is jelentkezni. Itt pedig Saci saját munkái tekinthetők meg. John Berger sorozatából az idézett rész a női meztelenségről, és annak a nézéséről (1972-ből). A Facebook-csoportok vadnyugati miliőjéről. Ahogy az adásban is elhangzott, egy nagyon basic kereséssel is tonnányi cikket találunk a női testképzavarokról (érdemes is őket fenntartásokkal kezelni, nem mindegy, hogy ki készíttette őket, és az sem, hogy hol és mikor), az adásban ezekből olvastunk fel párat: STADA Health Report 2024: Magyarországon vannak a legkevesebben (32 százalék), akik elégedettek azzal, ahogy kinéznek. Mindez összefügghet azzal, hogy az európai átlagnál jelentősen kisebb arányban valljuk magunkat jó fizikai állapotúnak. Míg Európa-szerte 54 százalék állítja magáról, hogy jó fizikai egészségnek örvend, addig az üzbég (71 százalék), az osztrák (68 százalék), a román (67 százalék) és a svájci (66 százalék) lakosok különösen jó állapotban érzik magukat, nálunk ez az arány csupán 39 százalék. Magyarországon tízből négyen közepesnek ítélik a fizikai egészségüket, 22 százalék pedig rossznak. Minden második magyar nő küzd azzal, hogy túl kövérnek látja magát, és 76 százalékuk szeretne másmilyen külsőt. A 18 és 24 év közti amerikai nők 90 százaléka elégedetlen legalább egy testrészével, derült ki egy friss felmérésből… Az 5053 nő részvételével zajlott kutatás a kozmetikai beavatkozásokra fókuszált: az összegyűjtött adatok szerint a nők főként középső testrészükkel elégedetlenek, életkoruktól és származásuktól függetlenül. 65 százalékuk emeli ki hasukat vagy hátukat fő problémás területként, amelyet a lábak, combok, majd a fenék és a bőr követ. A nők 20 százaléka tervez a közeljövőben valamilyen plasztikai műtétet, a megkérdezettek 7 százalékának volt már korábban hasonló beavatkozása. Ebben a 25-34-es korosztály jár élen. Egy friss felmérés szerint a magyar nők kétharmada nem elégedett a testével, illetve a súlyával sem, és a megkérdezettek több mint fele kövérnek gondolja magát. A 11–21 év közötti lányok 62 százaléka szeretne fogyni, 50 százalékuk próbált már valamiféle fogyókúrát, és egynegyedük fontolgatja a plasztikai műtétet. Egy másik felmérés szerint az európai egyetemisták 80 százaléka számolt be testi elégedetlenségről… A témában végzett kutatások szerint két fő oka a közösségi média befolyásában és/vagy a rossz szülői mintában keresendő. Ebben a veszélyeztetett korosztályban az elégedetlenség érzése sokszor csap át testképzavarba, amely néhány jellegzetes tünet alapján jól felismerhető és kezelhető. Az anorexia, a bulimia és a falás a vártnál több középkorú nőt érint, és majdnem minden 25. ember szenved evészavartól. Brit kutatási eredmény: a 40-es és 50-es éveiben járó nők 3,6 százaléka nyilatkozott úgy, hogy az elmúlt 12 hónapban étkezési zavarban szenvedett. Ha testképzavarról beszélünk, általában az elhízás, vagy valamilyen evészavar jön elő, mint leggyakoribb téma. De azért bőven vannak más problémák is. Ilyen pl. az izomdiszmorfia (a betegek erős izomzatuk ellenére soványnak, kicsinek érzik magukat és szeretnének nagyobb izomtömegre szert tenni) - érdekesség, hogy ez férfiakra jellemző. Vagy éppen az orthorexia nervosa, amit az evészavarok legújabb típusának mondanak: egészségesétel-függőség. És itt egy jó tanulmány a testképzavar és a médiafogyasztás összefüggéseiről.

AAco. La primera A por Alejandro. “Aco” es el apócope de su apellido, Acobino. Y apodo con el que lo identificaron sus amigos del colegio y colegas de teatro. Así firmaba sus cartas Alejandro Acobino, un actor, director y un dramaturgo extraordinario que dio el teatro de Buenos Aires. Cuando se fue, de forma temprana, dejó cinco obras: Enobarbo, Continente Viril, Rodando, Hernanito y Absentha. Y otras tantas inconclusas. Dejó también una poética potente, de una escritura magistral y llena de personajes que se pierden en una obsesión. Creo -lo digo humildemente después de haber visto sus obras varias veces- que aún no logramos ver del todo la dimensión de su legado. Una dimensión increíblemente lúcida de un teatro atroz, trágico y grotesco. Acobino fue, además, un gran escritor de cartas. Le encantaba escribirlas y hablar por téléfono. Esta carta fue extraída del libro “AAco. Alejandro Acobino: cartas, ensayos y homenajes”, editado por el Centro Cultural de la Cooperación Floreal Gorini. Es una cuidada y amorosa edición de su hermana Gabriela, que encontró muchísimos escritos en su computadora. Acá le escribe a una tal Sandy. No sabemos quién fue (Gabriela, su hermana, tampoco), pero importa poco. Alejandro le responde a esta mujer, quizá una periodista, que le había preguntado qué es para él el arte y por qué hace arte. Acá va entonces un pequeño homenaje de Epistolar a Alejandro Acobino por tantas horas disfrutando de su maravillosa obra. Lee el actor y amigo de Acobino, Germán Rodríguez. *** Estimada Sandy: Lamento la tardanza pero me olvidé completamente. Encontré tu mail de casualidad y te respondo. Espero que no sea tarde. No me resulta fácil contestarte lo que me pedís. La razón principal por la que hago arte es porque amo el arte. Tengo mis valores éticos y procuro ser consecuente con ellos como cualquiera que busca ser consecuente con sus valores. Tengo también mis valores ideológicos y por qué no confesarlo filosóficos… Pero a la hora de escribir y dirigir lo estético lo supedita todo... Creo en la autonomía de la estética respecto a los demás valores humanos... Acá me acerco más a Harold Bloom que a John Berger, aunque ideológicamente estoy más cerca de Berger (un progresista), filosóficamente me parezco más a Bloom (acusado de conservador). Del público: Yo vengo del público. Yo crecí en la época de la “primavera democrática” cuando salimos de la dictadura. La ciudad era un hervidero de teatritos, varietés, conciertos gratis, óperas… Yo me fui formando en ese mundo. Tras un intento frustrado de ser químico volví al teatro… Mi motor es la fascinación por el arte primero. ¿Por qué el teatro no es algo tan simple de explicar? Es decir mi mayor relación con el público es que del público vengo. Y hago teatro para que exista el teatro que querría ver... Y si no tengo mayor reflexión es porque gasto la mayor parte de mi tiempo reflexionando sobre los problemas estéticos que me planteo. AAco
Despite more capital coming into the solar industry than ever before, healthy unit economics, rising utility rates, and even declining equipment costs, equity and debt instruments are trading at distressed levels, with working capital increasingly scarce. What's causing this disconnect, and how can the industry recover?John Berger, Founder and CEO of Sunnova, is a veteran in the energy market with over two decades of experience. His company is one of the largest solar installation companies in the world, so it's safe to say he has a privileged view from inside the industry. In today's conversation, Berger discusses the pressures facing the solar industry, including regulatory hurdles, rising interest rates, and the perpetual whipsaw of the capital markets. He sheds light on how Sunnova is navigating these headwinds, as well as his thoughts on the path forward for the solar revolution.John spoke with Nico about:Why, despite strong solar economics, capital markets are still lagging.Sunnova's response to this high-interest rate environment.The importance and impact of domestic content on the solar supply chain.Berger's predictions on how the upcoming elections could affect the industry.This conversation answers a lot of questions about the current state of solar in capital markets, so hit play!If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.Our Platinum Presenting Sponsor for SunCast is CPS America!SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 730 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/valence-content-that-connects-7145928995363049472/You can connect with me, Nico Johnson, on:Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/nicomeoLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickalusMentioned in this episode:CPS July 2024 V2

Director and actor Simon McBurney, one of the founders of the ground breaking theatre company Complicité, reveals his creative inspirations and influences. For over four decades McBurney has created innovative and experimental works, from immersive staging to the reinvention of classic texts. His works include A Disappearing Number, The Encounter and Mnemonic, a landmark production which has been recently revived at The National Theatre. Simon McBurney tells John Wilson about his childhood in Cambridge where his father, an archaeologist, helped foster an early fascination with time and memory. For This Cultural Life he chooses the 1969 Ken Loach film Kes as a formative influence, offering an insight to a childhood very different to his own middle class upbringing. He recalls seeing the band The Clash whilst at Cambridge University, an experience that had a profound impact on his own creativity and political engagement through the arts. He also chooses the writer and critic John Berger as an inspirational figure, and recalls collaborating with Berger on the immersive Artangel project The Vertical Line in 1999. Simon McBurney also describes how the experience of meeting indigenous Amazonian people inspired his 2016 Complicité show The Encounter.

It's John Berger's "Ways of Seeing", and to dive deep we are joined by our friend, podcaster and art historian, Nadjah of Imaginarium Podcast!We think about colonialism, the idea of "value" when atributed to art, the connection with the viewer of an art piece and how all these questions are connected to the idea of the "canon" in art, and, more importantly, capitalism and imperialism.Overall, a necessary and wide chat on art and how we see it, enjoy!!Do check out and support Nadjah's work and her podcast:IMAGINARIUM: An Alternate History of Art!Also do check out the image and video Leon mentions at the end!

Chevruta is a column named for the traditional method of Jewish study, in which a pair of students analyzes a religious text together. In each installment, Jewish Currents will match leftist thinkers and organizers with a rabbi or Torah scholar. The activists will bring an urgent question that arises in their own work; the Torah scholar will lead them in exploring their question through Jewish text. By routing contemporary political questions through traditional religious sources, we aim to address the most urgent ethical and spiritual problems confronting the left. Each column will include a column, podcast, and study guide.On February 25th, Aaron Bushnell, an active-duty member of the US Air Force, self-immolated outside the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC. “I will no longer be complicit in genocide,” Bushnell said in a livestreamed video, broadcasting what he declared an “an extreme act of protest”—though, he added, “compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it's not extreme at all.” Bushnell, who was dressed in his army uniform, then doused himself in gasoline and set himself on fire, shouting “Free Palestine” until he collapsed. He died later that day. While some were quick to dismiss Bushnell's action as a manifestation of mental illness, many on the left expressed admiration for his sacrifice—which, as intended, drew global attention to US complicity in Israel's brutal, ongoing assault on Gaza.In this chevruta, Rabbi Lexi Botzum and Jewish Currents editor-in-chief Arielle Angel engage with Jewish texts that examine the concepts of martyrdom, sacrifice, and public spectacle, considering how our tradition might help us to engage with Aaron Bushnell's act, and the question of how much we must sacrifice for justice.You can find the column based on this conversation and a study guide here. Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).” Articles Mentioned:All Jewish sources are cited in the study guide, linked above“Aaron Bushnell's Act of Political Despair,” Masha Gessen, The New Yorker“The Work of the Witness,” Sarah Aziza, Jewish Currents“The Nature of Mass Demonstrations,” John Berger, International Socialism“Burnt Offerings,” Erik Baker, n+1

Yasi and Steven welcome prolific researcher and NEAMA Vice-President Dr. Tomi-Ann Roberts PhD to discuss her work on objectification and sexualization in dance. We also examine the negative effects of social media on one's mental health and how a simple three-day cleanse off of social media had surprising and powerful results. Our conversation delves into college NIL (name, image, and license) money and how this all connects with male athletes as well. For more about "ways of Seeing" by John Berger, go to https://www.ways-of-seeing.comFor more on Dr. Roberts and her work, go to https://www.tomi-annroberts.comFor more info on Athletes and the Arts, go to https://www.athletesandthearts.comBio: Dr. Roberts has been covered in many media sources including the New York Times about how her experience of being sexually harassed by Harvey Weinstein while a college student motivated her work on sexual objectification, contributing her scholarly voice to the #MeToo movement. In addition to her scholarly publications and teaching, she served on the American Psychological Association's Task Force on the Sexualization of Girls, the Task Force on Educating Through Feminist Research, and as President of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research from 2017-2019. She leverages feminist psychological science as a consultant for reproductive health related product brands, and as an expert witness in legal cases involving objectification and sexualization as forms of gender discrimination.
