Producers of mokuhanga prints who also teach art at the academic level have always intrigued me. The balance between the solitary work of a printmaker and the responsibilities of teaching a wide range of artistic disciplines must be both complex and, at times, challenging. It raises questions such as: How much of my own creative journey can I pursue while also dedicating myself to students who look to me for guidance as both an artist and a teacher? On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with Melissa Schulenburg—an independent printmaker, member of the Mokuhanga Sisters collective, and Charles A. Dana Professor of Art & Art History at St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York. Our interview explores Melissa's work as both an educator and a practicing mokuhanga printmaker. We discuss the role of tradition in her practice, how her visits to Japan, participation in MI-LAB, and involvement with the Mokuhanga Sisters have shaped her artistic development. We also take a look inside her printmaking toolbox, discussing the papers, pigments, and tools she relies on, as well as her deep connection to nature and the influence it has on her work.

Send us Fan MailA vacant lot sounds like nothing, until you look at it long enough to hear what it's saying. From Rome, I'm joined by artist, poet, and photographer Steven Seidenberg for a conversation about the places we pass every day and the histories we rarely name, even when they're right in front of us.We talk about Steven's conceptual photography practice and why he works in series, using repetition to build an idea across multiple images. His photo book Kanazawa Vacancy takes us to Kanazawa, Japan, where demographic shifts leave gaps in the city and nature moves back in fast. We dig into why he chose black and white, how negative space can feel heavy, and why “decay” can be understood as transformation rather than pure loss.Then we head to southern Italy through The Architecture of Silence, where abandoned post-war housing reveals the long afterlife of policy, power, and displacement. We discuss Matera, the Sassi cave dwellings, and the uneasy reality of gentrification when “culture” becomes a brand that prices locals out. From there, Steven brings us to his book Coda, sharing a writing process that begins in the middle, circles back, and borrows freedom from medieval narrative, alongside a love of language, sound, and the deep roots inside English itself.If you care about fine art photography, urban change, architecture, creative writing, and the quieter forms of spirituality that live inside everyday experience, you'll find plenty to sit with here.

Conditioning Books as Reinforcers: How to Increase Reading Engagement in Young Children: Inside JABA 26

The Behavioral Observations Podcast with Matt Cicoria

Episode Summary In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Daniel Fienup, Dr. Kate Loomis, and Lilian Morales to discuss their recent paper in JABA, Turning the Page: Increasing children's preference for looking at and engaging with books. In this episode, we explore how books can function as powerful reinforcers for young children, especially in early learning and ABA contexts. We discuss how to identify when books are actually reinforcing, how to condition books as reinforcers if they're not already, and practical strategies for incorporating them into teaching and behavior support. Key Topics Covered 1. What Makes Something a Reinforcer? Reinforcers are defined by their effect on behavior—not by intention A book is only a reinforcer if it increases the likelihood of a behavior Preference ≠ reinforcement (must test it) 2. Are Books Naturally Reinforcing? For some children: yes (especially those with strong interest in stories, visuals, or routines) For others: books may be neutral or even aversive Depends on learning history and prior pairing 3. Conditioning Books as Reinforcers Pair books with already-established reinforcers (e.g., attention, snacks, praise) Make reading interactive and engaging (voices, movement, pointing, questions) Start with short durations and build up tolerance/enjoyment Follow the child's lead (let them turn pages, choose books, etc.) 4. Embedding Books into Teaching Use books as part of discrete trial or natural environment teaching Reinforce responses with brief access to a favorite book Incorporate targets into reading (labeling, WH questions, listener responding) Use repeated readings to build fluency and predictability 5. Expanding Reinforcer Repertoires Why it matters: reduces reliance on edibles or screens Books are portable, social, and developmentally beneficial Helps build early literacy and joint attention skills 6. Common Mistakes Assuming all kids like books Using books too long as a reinforcer (loses value) Not rotating or updating book options Ignoring signs of disengagement 7. Practical Tips Keep a small "high-value" book rotation Use novelty strategically Observe what aspects the child enjoys (pictures, repetition, sensory elements) Track what actually increases responding Takeaways Books can absolutely function as reinforcers—but only if conditioned or preferred Pairing and engagement are key to building their value Using books as reinforcers supports both behavior change and language development Resources Tsai and Greer (2006).

Aiko asked.Ja: 「ええ、桜はすごく美しいですね。En: "Yes, cherry blossoms are really beautiful.Ja: でも、まだこの街のことをあまり知らなくて…」はるとが言いました。En: But... I don't really know much about this city yet," Haruto said.Ja: 「じゃあ、一緒に祭りを回りませんか?En: "Then, why don't we tour the festival together?Ja: 案内しますよ」あいこが提案しました。En: I can show you around," Aiko suggested.Ja: その言葉に、はるとはうなずきました。En: With those words, Haruto nodded.Ja: 二人は屋台を巡り、美味しい料理を楽しみながら、笑顔で話し続けました。En: The two roamed around the stalls, enjoying delicious foods while continuing to talk with smiles.Ja: あいこは芸術家で、自然からインスピレーションを得て絵を描くことが好きだと話しました。En: Aiko shared that she was an artist and loved to draw, gaining inspiration from nature.Ja: 「桜の下で絵を描くと新しいアイデアが浮かぶんですよ」と彼女は言いました。En: "When I paint under the cherry blossoms, new ideas come to me," she said.Ja: 「それは素敵ですね。En: "That's wonderful.Ja: でも、僕にはそういう才能がない」とはるとは控えめに言いました。En: But, I don't have any talent like that," Haruto said modestly.Ja: 「あきらめないで。En: "Don't give up.Ja: きっと何か才能があるはずですよ」とあいこは励ましました。En: I'm sure you have some talent," Aiko encouraged.Ja: 二人は、温かい春の光の中で、互いの夢や未来について語り合いました。En: The two of them, in the warm spring light, talked about their dreams and the future.Ja: そして、祭りが終わる頃には、連絡先を交換し、また会う約束をしました。En: By the time the festival was ending, they had exchanged contact information and promised to meet again.Ja: はるとはこの出会いのおかげで、心が軽くなるのを感じました。En: Thanks to this encounter, Haruto felt his heart lighten.Ja: 新しい街での生活が少しずつ明るくなり、この出会いが自分にとって新しいインスピレーションになると気づいたのです。En: Life in the new city was slowly becoming brighter, and he realized that this meeting was becoming a new inspiration for him.Ja: そして、あいこは、はるととの会話からも新しいインスピレーションを得ることができました。En: Aiko, too, was able to gain new inspiration from the conversation with Haruto.Ja: 桜だけでなく、人々との出会いが新たな創作の源になることを悟ったのです。En: She recognized that encounters with people, not just the cherry blossoms, could become a new source of creation.Ja: その日の桜の下での出会いは、二人の心を優しく結び、鮮やかに咲いた花々のように、彼らの人生に美しい影響を与えました。En: The encounter beneath the cherry blossoms that day gently connected their hearts, and like the vividly blooming flowers, had a beautiful impact on their lives.Ja: 祭りの終わりが近づいても、二人の友情は始まったばかりでした。En: Even as the festival drew to a close, their friendship was just beginning.

From Astro Boy to Gundam to real-world robots like ASIMO and Pepper, Japan's fascination with robots runs deep. This week, the Krewe is joined by author, cultural commentator, & robot enthusiast Matt Alt to explore how robots became heroes instead of threats in Japanese pop culture and how those sci-fi dreams quietly shaped Japan's modern relationship with technology, AI, and everyday automation. From giant mecha and cyborg icons to robot cafés and beyond, we dig into why Japan seems so comfortable living alongside machines in an episode that's equal parts nostalgia, culture, and future tech.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

In this episode of Rainy Day Rabbit Holes, Shea and Jody wander straight into the delightfully unhinged heart of Japanese folklore, where the landscapes are beautiful, the temples are ancient, and the raccoon dogs have… opinions. And tricks. And extremely versatile anatomy. Fresh off Shea's travels through Nagano, the conversation opens with reflections on Japan’s quiet magic — misty mountains, timeless streets, and the spiritual gravity of places like Zenkoji Temple, where centuries of belief hang in the air like incense smoke. From there, things take a turn. A tanuki-shaped turn. Enter the Tanuki: real animal, legendary menace, folkloric chaos goblin. Known in English as the Japanese raccoon dog, the tanuki occupies a strange and wonderful space where biology collides with myth. Shea and Jody dig into how this very real creature became one of Japan’s most beloved tricksters — a shapeshifter, a prankster, and a master of illusion who delights in confusing humans, impersonating monks, and generally causing low-stakes supernatural nonsense. And then there’s the scrotum. Yes, that scrotum. In tanuki folklore, it’s not just anatomy — it’s a multipurpose magical object capable of stretching, transforming, disguising, and occasionally funding a night out. Shea and Jody unpack how this bizarre detail isn’t just crude humor for humor’s sake, but ties back to real historical practices, particularly Kanazawa’s gold-leaf industry, where tanuki legends became symbols of wealth, flexibility, and good fortune. Folklore, it turns out, is nothing if not practical. Along the way, the episode explores why tanuki statues are everywhere in Japan — outside restaurants, shops, temples, and bars — grinning, wide-eyed, eternally mid-prank. These statues aren’t just cute roadside oddities; they’re cultural shorthand for prosperity, humor, and a reminder not to take life too seriously. Or at least to keep an eye on your wallet when magical animals are nearby. The discussion weaves together travel stories, religious history, art, pop culture, and the enduring appeal of a creature that refuses to behave. From ancient tales to modern anime, the tanuki continues to evolve, shape-shift, and bounce gleefully through Japanese storytelling, dragging its legends — and its lucky bag — right along with it. It’s an episode about Japan’s ability to hold beauty and absurdity in the same breath. About sacred spaces and silly stories. About how folklore survives because it entertains as much as it teaches. And about a mischievous raccoon dog whose legacy proves that sometimes, the weirdest stories are the ones that stick the longest.

Ever study hard and still wonder why it feels empty? We dive into academic yarigai—the lived, situational meaning that makes learning feel worth doing—and map out nine practical factors that turn study from grind to growth. With Dr. Yu Kanazawa, associate professor at Osaka University, we explore how a refined approach, adapted from the Ikigai-9 scale, unites engagement, curiosity, flow, social contribution, and purpose into a single, usable framework.We walk through each factor—intrinsic fulfillment, curiosity and intellectual stimulation, personal growth, social contribution, engagement and flow, recognition and appreciation, overcoming challenges, real-world relevance, and a sense of purpose—and show how they interact. Rather than treating motivation as fuel you either have or lack, we focus on lived qualities you can cultivate from different starting points. Maybe you're not enjoying a subject yet, but you see its social value; maybe you love the topic but haven't tied it to real problems. Each factor is a gate into meaningful study, and you only need one to begin.Yu shares insights from his study with Japanese undergraduates and explains cultural nuances like utori—mental space that makes flow possible—and how cramming cultures can crowd out deep engagement. We also unpack why recognition is more than reward; it signals that your work matters to others, which stabilizes effort. For teachers, coaches, and learners, the nine-item scale becomes a reflective tool to diagnose strengths, spot thin areas, diversify sources of meaning, and reduce burnout. Language learning shines as a case study, linking curiosity, connection, and real-world use in a way that naturally builds yarigai.If you're ready to trade blunt motivation hacks for a humane, research-backed path to purposeful learning, this conversation offers a clear map you can use today. Subscribe, share with someone who needs a study reset, and leave a review telling us which “gate” you'll try first.

Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan's government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do.

Vi sidder i Grandhall (Esbens soveværelse) og venter på tornadoen, de har set alle UFO'er og alt liv fra rummet på Lolland, #UgensJob er UFO-detektiven, Regeringen indkalder unødigt til vigtigt pressemøde med kort varsel, 'it was not me it was the one-armed man', stikkerlinjen er pivåben, i Australien, Robert Redford og hesteviskeren takker af, en undervurderet film og #ugensfilm Spy Game, de unge mennesker tar' magten i Nepal, en ulands-123-raket, når Merrild er billig, så skal benzinen også være det, kære Journalist - dæk nyheden selvom du ikke bryder dig om det, et opkald til kollegaerne i Spanien om Sam-Sam og et klassisk Kina-svindelnummer.
