J'ai rêvé de toi en couleurs, c'est le titre de l'exposition monographique que le Musée d'art moderne de Paris consacre jusqu'au 22 février 2026 à l'artiste plasticienne Otobong Nkanga, née à Kano au Nigeria, et qui réside en Belgique depuis une vingtaine d'années. Otobong Nkanga travaille sur le thème du lien brisé et à recréer entre l'humain et son environnement.  RFI : Bonjour Otobong Nkanga, vous présentez ici, au Musée d'art moderne de Paris, une monographie rétrospective de votre œuvre. Qu'est-ce que ça vous fait de revisiter ce que vous avez produit au fil des ans ?  Otobong Nkanga : Cela me fait vraiment plaisir, comme j'ai fait mes études ici en France, à Paris. Et de rentrer dans ce musée pour montrer la sélection de mon travail, c'est réellement quelque chose qui me touche. Je suis à la fois étonnée, émue et fière, car c'est un musée que je venais visiter quand j'étais à Paris. J'allais y regarder des expositions, par exemple de Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster ou Pierre Huyghe. Et à cette époque-là, je regardais ces artistes avec un immense respect, et de constater que je suis moi aussi entrée dans l'un des plus grands musées de France...Oui, c'est incroyable !  Qu'est-ce que vous avez choisi de montrer aux visiteurs français ou étrangers qui viendront ici  ?  D'abord des pièces que j'ai réalisées ici à Paris, comme celle qui s'appelle Keyhole. Il y a plusieurs pièces qui datent de ce temps-là, et d'autres plus actuelles, afin de montrer l'étendue des choses. C'est aussi la première fois que je montre des pièces que j'ai faites à l'école. C'est important de pouvoir les montrer, car il y a des jeunes qui créent et travaillent, et ils peuvent ainsi constater que les œuvres tracent une certaine ligne qui va être suivie dans le futur.  On peut voir beaucoup de choses, on peut voir du tissage, des collages, des céramiques, des installations. Mais au final, quelle est la forme d'expression plastique qui vous correspond le plus ?  Tout commence avec les dessins, l'installation, les sculptures, les tapisseries, les performances. Tout cela commence vraiment par une esquisse ou un dessin. Et à partir de là, je commence à voir mes idées dans un espace. Et à partir de là, pour moi, il n'y a pas une médium qui me semble plus important qu'une autre. C'est en fonction de l'idée que j'ai, en fonction de la manière que je trouve la meilleure pour exprimer quelque chose.  Votre travail questionne beaucoup le rapport entre l'humain et la nature… Ces liens que l'on crée, ces liens que l'on détruit, ces liens que l'on aimerait pouvoir recréer. Je pense notamment à toute la partie sur les industries extractives. Est-ce que l'action de l'homme sur la nature est toujours négative ? Je ne crois pas que c'est l'action de l'homme qui est négative sur la planète, parce que, nous aussi, nous venons de cette planète, de cette nature-là. Mais ce que je crois en revanche, c'est que la manière de développer et de structurer nos entreprises extractives ne prend pas en compte une partie « dormante ». Je veux dire, le fait de laisser les choses reposer, repousser, se régénérer. Tout ce que l'on fait, c'est de sortir, sortir des choses. On a toujours été extractifs, nous les humains, mais la manière dont nous le faisons aujourd'hui est marquée par le capitalisme. On le fait pour le capital et non pas pour l'humain. C'est pourquoi nous entrons dans des guerres. C'est pourquoi nous entrons dans un système qui n'est pas favorable aux humains, surtout pour les gens qui habitent sur les terres qui possèdent ces ressources minières.  ► Exposition I Dreamt of you in Colours, d'Otobong Nkanga au Musée d'art moderne de Paris jusqu'au 22 février 2026. 

Welcome to the final battle of Dan's season of video game movies, where we tackle the quintessential 90s movie adaptation of Midway's hyper-violent fighting game, Mortal Kombat (1995). We're closing out the season in style – or perhaps lack thereof – with the second appearance of director Paul W.S. Anderson (see our episode covering Resident Evil at the beginning of the season). Dan admits this computer game adaptation is effin stupid but still finds it fun and iconic. Meanwhile, Sarah is glad it's over for fear of any more video game movies potentially invoking mental illness upon her. This cheesy 90s action film was a massive box-office success, grossing over $120 million on a $20 million budget. We discuss the perplexing decision by New Line Cinema (who built their brand on Freddy Krueger!) to water down the signature violence and force a PG-13 rating, denying the R-rated fatalities the source material demands. Dan defends Anderson's work, noting that the director adapted his methods on set as advised by proficient martial artist and star Robin Shou (Liu Kang). We marvel at how much dedication Christopher Lambert (Raiden) had for the project and celebrate the fact that the film features some of the first major Hollywood wirework. However, we can't stop asking: What exactly is Goro, the animatronic monster that ate 5% of the film's budget? We scrutinise the confusing plot, the jarring CGI and why the usually badass Sonya Blade (Bridget Wilson Sampras) gets sidelined and forced into a dress. Listen as Sarah unleashes a final FATALITY on the season's terrible musical selections, citing the theme song as the worst soundtrack of the season–a claim Dan aggressively disputes. What to expect from this episode: We explain why the movie adaptation was forced to go PG-13, despite the game's hyper-violent reputation. Dan and Sarah argue over the iconic (or headache-inducing) movie soundtrack. We discuss the complex animatronics required to bring Goro to life, which cost $1 million and required 13-16 operators. Critique of the film's messy opening, where characters like Liu Kang, Sonya Blade and Johnny Cage are introduced haphazardly. Sarah shares some interesting trivia about how Kano's character was adapted in the game's following the release of Mortal Kombat (1995). We praise the decent fighting choreography, noting the early use of wirework in Hollywood inspired by Hong Kong action films. We discuss how Christopher Lambert's casting as Raiden was influenced by his love for the original fighting game. And finally, we thank our podcast pals Chris and Joel at Just the Thing podcast for the shout-out on their Resident Evil: Afterlife episode, which is an excellent companion show for our Resident Evil episode. Sadly, that concludes Dan's season of video-game adaptations but fear not, for we will return on November 24th for a brand new season and a brand new theme, as chosen by Sarah. Be sure to listen right to the end of this episode to find out what she has in store.  If you would like to find out the full lineup for the next season, sign up to Patreon as a FREE member to see the schedule when it drops, in a few weeks.

Nigeria's response to cerebral palsy stands at a pivotal crossroads. While the world raises awareness and calls for inclusion, Nigeria grapples with significant gaps in understanding, limited access to therapy, and systemic barriers that keep children with CP on the margins.Background: The Landscape of CP in NigeriaCerebral palsy remains one of the most misunderstood childhood disorders in the country. Prevalence estimates vary widely, but many cases go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to low awareness among health workers and families. Therapy services—physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech‑language therapy—are concentrated in urban centres, leaving rural children without basic care. Stigma and discrimination further isolate affected families, and policy frameworks seldom prioritize CP within broader disability agendas.What needs to change?- Awareness & education – training health professionals, teachers, and community leaders to recognise early signs.- Accessible therapy – expanding community‑based rehab hubs and subsidising private therapy costs.- Inclusive policies – integrating CP into national disability legislation, school curricula, and employment guidelines.In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we sit down with a father who's navigating daily life with his CP‑affected child, and with a leading paediatric neurologist who outlines concrete steps for policy, funding, and societal inclusion. Their stories illuminate the urgent reforms needed to turn World Cerebral Palsy Day from a symbolic moment into a catalyst for real, nationwide change.

Episode 83 - Murdock and Marvel: 2012 Part 2 2012 was a year when the big news in comics all happened outside of shops, with movie theaters and social media dominating the industry. This is part 2 of the podcast. that will feature the year in Daredevil, the Spotlight story and the Takeaway for 2012.   The Year in Daredevil  Appearances: Daredevil v3 #6-19, Daredevil: End of Days #1 Fantastic Four #600, New Avengers #19-24 and #30-31, Amazing Spider-Man #677, Punisher #7 and 10, Avengers #24, Avengers vs X-Men #1-4 and #7-9, Avenging Spider-Man #6, Hulk #50, AVX Vs #2, Daredevil Annual #1, Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe #4, Secret Avengers #33  Writer: Mark Waid (#6-19)  Pencils: Marcos Martin (#6), Paolo Rivera (#7 and #9-10), Kano (#8), Khoi Pham (#10.1 and 13), Marco Checchetto (#11), Chris Samnee (#12, #14-16, and #18-19), Mike Allred (#17)  Inks: Marcos Martin (#6), Joe Rivera (#7 and #9-10), Kano (#8), Khoi Pham (#10.1), Marco Checchetto (#11), Chris Smanee (#12, #14-16 and #18-19), Tom Palmer (#13), Mike Allred (#17)  2012 Begins with the last couple books of the Omege Drive, MegaCrime Organizations and the Mutually Assured Destruction that allowed Daredevil and friends to get out of a sticky situation but also left a target on Daredevil's back.   In February, we get an award winning 1-shot where after Matt Murdock attends a holiday party, he volunteers to take some blind kids on a ski trip. The bus ends up getting into a crash and Daredevil tries to lead the kids out of the cold – but it ends up being the kids that save Murdock and themselves.  In March, we get a two-part story that starts in Amazing Spider-Man #677 called “The Devil and the Details”. In it, we see Peter Parker lamenting his recent breakup with Carlie Cooper, trying to be cool with Black Cat (which goes horrible) and then seeking out Matt Murdock & Daredevil when Black Cat is arrested. She says she's been frames for a break-in at Horizon Labs.    After Black Cat breaks out of police custody, the three locate the inventor of stolen Holographic projector. He's been poisoned and has little time to live. Spider-Man rushes him to a hospital while Black Cat and Daredevil secure the projector from members of Black Spectre and basically removing them as a threat. As a “reward” for helping, Black Cat and Daredevil passionately kiss with Spider-Man looking on and saying one of the best lines ever “I think this is my super villain origin.” They go back to Matt's place but before anything happens – he's called away to the graveyard of his father where some weird things are going on. Specifically, that his and other graves have been emptied.  This leads us into the next story that involves heading underground and a confrontation with Mole Man. Mole Man is stealing coffins to try to find the love of his life Lorna whom he loved as Dr Harvey Elder and wants to be with. Daredevil ultimately “saves” the body of Lorna (and some diamonds) and returns to the surface. Upon going home, he reads a note from Black Cat admitting she was hired to steal the Omega Drive from him – but doesn't and warns him to watch his back  After a 10.1 book that acts as a lead-up, we get a 3-part crossover where Spider-Man, Daredevil, and the Punisher team up in order to protect the Omega Drive from the Megacrime organizations with each book getting part of the story titled “The Omega Effect.” This will be our spotlight story this week.  Next, we get a 1-shot story showing Matt Murdock and Kirsten McDuffie on a date – which goes well until a Black Spectre agent threatens the pair about the Omega Dive. That leads to a giant battle in the middle of Time Square between himself (with the Omega Drive) and the 4 megacrime organizations while the events are broadcast throughout the city. The fight ends with a Black Spectre Agent securing the drive and leaving. Later, Daredevil kicks down the door of Avengers Mansion, where members of the New Avengers - Wolverine, Mockingbird, Spider-Man, Iron Fist, and Luke Cage - are changing out of Black Spectre uniforms and we learn the fight in Time Square was staged and the drive is destroyed.    Turns out there are repercussions for losing Latveria a lot of laundered money and Daredevil is next abducted and being held at Castle Doom in Latveria by the Minister of Bank Chancellor Exchequer Beltran. After a failed escape attempt, Daredevil is eventually rescued by the Avengers but not before some nanobots are injected into Daredevil causing his senses to all but disappear.   Back in America, Hank Pym shrinks to micro size and enters Murdock's brain to fight the nanobots with the guidance of Dr Strange.  Despite some weird readings, Pym successfully destroy all the nanobots and Murdock's senses start to return. Later, Murdock returns to Nelson & Murdock law offices where he's confronted by Foggy Nelson saying he's found Matt's secret – showing him Jack Murdock's remains and boxing gloves in Matt's desk. A stunned Matt tries to tell Foggy he didn't rob his own father's grave, that he's been set up, but Foggy will hear none of it. Foggy tells Matt that they're through until Matt gets the help he needs.  After a flashback story involving Stilt-man, we see Nelson and Murdock still at odds over the remains. Foggy's worries about Matt's mental state are increased because Matt calls him and says Milla Donovan is in apartment unaware of anything bad ever happening to her. Nelson agrees to go to the hospital where Milla was committed if Daredevil will look into a case involving a drug lord Hierra dying and an innocent nurse accused of murder.   The year ends with Foggy telling Matt that he must have hallucinated Milla because he can see her inside her room at the hospital. Daredevil going after one of the drug lords bosses only to suspect Jardeim Salazar himself seemly falls down an elevator shaft trying to escape him. That leads to Daredevil dropping in on the only other Hierra's bosses as he tries to consolidate power – Anthony Tortino. Daredevil tries to warn the men about their common enemy, but things quickly turn south. Daredevil believes it's The Spot who's doing all this and jumps into a circular black portal after Tortino but is knocked out. He awakens to his hands being cuffed behind a post. Daredevil shouts in rage that Spot is a dead man, but the black hands that abducted him pick his detached head and the tormentor introduces himself as Coyote.  This Week's Spotlight: Avenging Spider-Man #6 June 2012 “The Omega Effect Part 1”, Punisher vol 9 #10 June 2012 “The Omega Effect Part 2” and Daredevil vol 3 #11 June 2012 “The Omega Effect Part 3”  Recap Why We Picked This Story Daredevil Rapid Fire Questions The Takeaway It is getting harder to separate comics from culture, to the detriment of the industry and its readers.

A musician was sentenced to death for blasphemy under Sharia law in Nigeria, highlighting the tension between brutal religious courts and the nation's protective secular constitution. The Supreme Court intervened, recognizing that rapid sentencing by the local Sharia court often seeks to bypass constitutional protections before citizens can exercise their rights. This case exemplifies the political volatility of upholding modern secular law against entrenched traditional religious demands, where theological disagreements can result in capital punishment.News Source:Nigeria's Supreme Court allows late appeal in Kano blasphemy caseBy Camillus Ebo for ReutersSeptember 25, 2025

Today's episode is part of our Christian parenting mini-series we are offering on “Motherhood Taboos” and we are tackling a big taboo of finding out you're pregnant ... and you weren't planning to be. Our guests are both priests who found themselves unexpectedly pregnant and want to narrate the grief and the joy, the surprise and the wonder, and the challenge and hope of a blessing that can leave you limping from a worldview that supports women's autonomy, choice, and freedom. MORE ABOUT OUR GUESTS:Rev. Mia Kano is an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Massachusetts, where she serves as the part-time Rector of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Ayer. She lives in Acton, Massachusetts with her husband and two children. Rev. Mia's childhood was shaped by both Catholic and Congregationalist churches. She found her way to the Episcopal Church in her early twenties after exploring secular humanism and Islam. She was ordained as a priest in January 2020. Rev. Reagan Gonzalez was born in Odessa, Texas and raised in Bozeman, Montana. She grew up attending St. James Episcopal Church in Bozeman and later served as its Youth Director and Christian Formation Director before attending seminary. She is a graduate of Montana State University with a degree in Microbiology. After college, Reagan spent a year living in intentional community during a year of service with the Episcopal Service Corps. This experience deepened her faith and confirmed a desire to formally discern a call to ordained ministry. She earned an MDiv from the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas and was ordained to the priesthood in 2018. Reagan has a passion for community life that is grounded in inclusivity. She loves to preach, teach, tell Godly Play stories to children, and introduce people to an open-minded Christianity where questions are welcomed, and where we trust that we learn best by struggling together to hear where the Holy Spirit is calling. Reagan is married to Bryan, they have two children, and one on the way. +++Like what you hear?

On Sunday, August 17, what was meant to be a routine trip to Goronyo Market in Sokoto State turned into a nightmare. A boat overloaded with more than 50 passengers — including traders, farmers, and even motorcycles — capsized midway, plunging families into grief. So far, authorities have confirmed at least 30 deaths, while many others remain unaccounted for, according to the Sokoto State Emergency Management Agency.Sadly, this is not the first time Nigerians are waking up to such heartbreaking news. From Kebbi to Niger, Kwara to Sokoto, boat mishaps have become all too common, leaving a trail of sorrow across riverine communities.In today's episode of Nigeria Daily, we ask: why do these tragedies keep happening?

When the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in 2021, they introduced many controversial measures, including a ban on music. How do people celebrate special occasions, like weddings? BBC Pashto's Payenda Sargand recently attended a wedding in the southern city of Kandahar and tells us about the other forms of entertainment that were on display, including poetry, singers performing without music and stand-up comedians. The tradition of ‘money spraying' is a major part of Nigerian wedding celebrations, but now you could face a hefty fine or even a prison sentence if you're caught doing it. Make-up artist Abdullahi Musa Huseini, also known as Amuscap on social media, was recently sentenced by a high court in the northern city of Kano for throwing cash at his own wedding, and he's currently serving a six-month jail sentence. Mansur Abubakar from BBC Africa has been reporting on this story. Tuareg communities in North Africa traditionally celebrate weddings with a 7-day party. The BBC Arabic's Xtra TV producers were invited to a wedding in Gath, in the south of Libya, and got to know the groom, Jamal, a young man who said he had to save for years to be able to afford such a feast in the current cost-of-living crisis. Saif Rebai reports. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world.

Frank is joined by Aaron from Fandom Portals to revisit 2021's Mortal Kombat reboot and dig into everything from fight choreography to character arcs and deeper themes. They discuss how the film hit differently as a post-lockdown release, the smart (and messy) choices around Cole Young, and what to expect from Mortal Kombat 2. Plus, they highlight standout performances, favorite fights, and how the film balances brutal action with just the right amount of absurdity. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Introduction and guest spotlight: Aaron from Fandom Portals 02:00 What Fandom Portals is all about and their most interesting guests 04:59 Why Mortal Kombat was the pick for this episode 07:13 Two-minute rundown of the 2021 film 09:38 Remembering Mortal Kombat's unique place during the pandemic 13:04 The planned trilogy and where the story is headed 14:00 Our first memories playing Mortal Kombat 16:00 Favorite characters and button-mashing nostalgia 18:00 Comedy and fatalities: Finding the right tone 20:03 Breaking down Arcana and how it enhances the story 25:12 Character depth: Cole, Raiden, and Sub-Zero's arcs 30:00 Legacy, trauma, and family themes in Mortal Kombat 32:00 Highlight performances: Jessica McNamee and Josh Lawson 38:11 Martial arts authenticity and cultural details 41:15 The final fight: Scorpion and Cole vs Sub-Zero 43:00 Sonya vs Kano: Underdogs, traps, and laser chaos 46:00 Talking stereotypes and what modern adaptations can improve 48:00 The score: Hits, misses, and video game influence Key Takeaways: Mortal Kombat landed during the pandemic as a fun, communal theater experience. The new Arcana system brought purpose and emotional weight to the characters' powers. Kano's over-the-top personality worked thanks to Josh Lawson's fully committed performance. Scorpion and Sub-Zero's rivalry represents generational trauma, vengeance, and redemption. The fights were creative and often layered with emotional or thematic stakes. The film's costume and stunt work add more depth than it gets credit for. The score was ambitious but sometimes pulled focus away from the action. Quotes: “You don't need a perfect movie to have a meaningful one—and this gave us something to rally around.” “Sub-Zero was cool. Literally. He was the kid-you-didn't-let-your-brothers-pick fighter.” “Kano's the guy you roll your eyes at and still want to grab a beer with.” “The deeper themes are there if you want them—generational pain, redemption, and honoring legacy.” Call to Action: Like what you heard?

Le Dambe, sport traditionnel le plus ancien au Nigeria, est aussi le plus populaire. Cet art martial mêle musique, rite animiste, et se rapproche de la lutte et de la boxe. Malgré de nombreuses variantes, sa forme originelle a été développée dans les communautés haoussa au Xe siècle, selon des chercheurs. RFI s'est rendu à Kano pour se rendre compte du phénomène Dambe qui génère des millions de vues sur les réseaux sociaux et qui provoque une passion folle aussi bien au Nigeria, qu'au Niger ou au Tchad. De notre envoyé spécial à Kano, Les coups pleuvent entre ces deux combattants de Dambe, deux jeunes colosses dont le bras droit est enveloppé par un bandage du coude jusqu'au poing, et la main gauche, paume ouverte, sert de garde. Sifflet à la bouche et chemise jaune fluo, l'arbitre Abdullahi Sanisa reste placide malgré la violence des coups. « Nous accordons aux boxeurs autant de temps nécessaires pour combattre. En tant qu'arbitres, nous ajustons la durée du match en fonction de la dureté des coups donnés et reçus. Avant que les combattants se reposent entre chaque round », explique-t-il. À base de coups de poing, mais aussi de pied, le combat en quatre rounds cesse s'il n'y a plus d'activité, quand l'un des participants ou un officiel demande l'arrêt du combat. Ou bien si la main, le genou ou le corps d'un participant touche le sol. Dogon Kallyu est une star du Dambe à Kano. Même sans combattre, cet athlète à la taille enserrée par des amulettes déclenche l'hystérie du public de cette arène. « Je combats au Dambe pendant environ un mois, puis je me repose durant six mois avant de reprendre le combat afin de maximiser ma force. Nous utilisons des fétiches dans ce combat de Dambe. Tous les moyens sont bons pour réussir et gagner », confie-t-il. Le Dambe remonterait au Xe siècle, sous forme de combat rituel, au nord du Nigeria avant de se répandre au Niger et au Tchad. Au départ, pratiqué lors des fêtes des moissons, cet art martial est devenu un sport plus organisé dont les meilleurs éléments peuvent gagner jusqu'à plusieurs dizaines de milliers d'euros. Le promoteur Muhammad Bashir Sarki anime, micro en main depuis près de dix ans, une compétition de Dambe très suivie en ligne. « Nous enregistrons généralement environ un million de vues en 24 heures et au moins 5 000 personnes se déplacent pour assister aux combats. Au Nigeria, chaque État organise le Dambe », détaille-t-il. Le Dambe sera-t-il présent un jour aux Jeux olympiques ? C'est le rêve fou que caresse Muhammad Bashir Sarki, et des millions de fans au Nigeria. À lire aussiCAN féminine 2025: le Nigeria renverse le Maroc et remporte le dixième titre de son histoire

BONUS: Never Stop Experimenting—Building a Culture of Continuous Discovery with Stavros Stavru In this BONUS episode, we dive deep into the world of continuous experimentation with Stavros Stavru, Ph.D. in Organizational Transformations and founder of EdTech ventures AhaPlay and The Caringers. Stavros shares insights from his latest book "Never Stop Experimenting" and reveals how teams can maintain their discovery mindset while balancing the pressures of delivery. The Exploration-Exploitation Dilemma "What would we choose? What we know, and try to exploit? Or go for something new, and better than we currently have?" Stavros introduces us to one of the fundamental challenges facing modern teams: the tension between exploration and exploitation. He explains how teams often start with an exploration mindset, focused on solving real problems through discovery. However, over time, there's a natural shift from discovery to delivery, and teams forget the importance of continued exploration. The title "Never Stop Experimenting" serves as an anchor for teams to remember the value of maintaining their experimental approach even when delivery pressures mount. Born from a Decade of Practice "All the techniques that I describe in the book were born during 10 years of practice." The book isn't theoretical - it's grounded in real-world application. Stavros shares how every technique and framework in "Never Stop Experimenting" emerged from his extensive hands-on experience working with teams over a decade. This practical foundation ensures that readers get battle-tested approaches rather than untested concepts. Software Development as Incremental Experiments "Experimentation requires a creative process." Stavros addresses a common challenge: while teams understand the benefits of experimentation and want to experiment, they often face management resistance that ultimately demotivates the team. He emphasizes that viewing software development as a series of incremental experiments isn't just beneficial - it's absolutely necessary for teams to remain innovative and responsive to changing needs. The Fatware Matrix: Putting Products on a Diet "The challenge: how do you convince the business that you need to spend some time removing features?" One of the book's standout concepts is "The Fatware Matrix," which helps Product Managers recognize when their product is becoming bloated. Stavros introduces a practical tool combining the Kano framework with maintenance cost analysis to illustrate the true cost and impact of maintaining old features. This approach helped one team successfully remove features from their software, with stakeholders later commenting, "Now this is more transparent for us." The key is managing feature creep and software bloat before they become overwhelming. The NSE Ratio: Optimizing Experimentation Rhythm "It's when we try something new that we learn what works. We need to change something on a regular basis." The NSE (Never Stop Experimenting) Ratio measures how long teams wait before introducing new approaches or experimenting with their processes. Stavros explains how teams should define their NSE ratio as part of their team agreements, establishing a regular cadence for trying new things. This systematic approach ensures that learning and adaptation become embedded in the team's rhythm rather than happening sporadically. Building a Safe-to-Fail Culture "Speak of your own failures. When we show our failures as leaders, we show the team that they can run their own experiments." Creating a truly safe-to-fail environment requires leaders to model vulnerability and transparency about their own mistakes. Stavros emphasizes that leaders must give the example by sharing their failures openly, which gives permission for the rest of the organization to take risks and learn from their own experiments. This leadership modeling is crucial for establishing psychological safety around experimentation. About Stavros Stavru Stavros is a Ph.D. in Organizational Transformations and a leading voice in Agile coaching, leadership, and soft skills. Founder of EdTech ventures AhaPlay and The Caringers, he has delivered over 800 trainings and authored Never Stop Experimenting, a powerful toolkit for continuous improvement across teams and organizations.

Are you a fan of Japanese traditional painting and tattooing?   In this episode I share my findings on the rigorous training methods of Japanese painters during the Edo and Meiji periods, emphasising how expertise was forged through discipline and observation, not just innate talent. It delves into the traditional apprenticeship system, with the Kano school exemplifying this systematic approach.   The discussion also highlights numi geiko, a proactive pursuit of knowledge beyond formal lessons, exemplified by Kyosai's intense  training and his broad integration of diverse influences.   The examples of these masters can help you integrate training methods in your own practice to improve and sharpen your skills.    stefbastian.com

Este episodio con Kalinda Kano se convirtió en uno de esos que sigue cerquita de nosotras. Hablamos sobre lo difícil que puede ser mostrarnos tal cual somos, sin máscaras, sin pretender la perfección, pero con mucha honestidad.Exploramos las expectativas que ponemos (y nos ponen), de por qué nos cuesta tanto permitirnos ser vulnerables, y de cómo vivir más en sintonía con quienes realmente somos.Una conversación entre amigas que nos recordó que ser perfectamente imperfectas no solo es suficiente, también es poderoso.

Kano State in northwest Nigeria is a land of paradox. The ancient home of the Hausa people, it has ties back to the oldest civilizations in West Africa. Muslim since around the 12th century, the region remained largely self-administered during the era of British colonialism, and never significantly adopted Christianity or Western culture and values as in other parts of Nigeria. In 2000, Kano instituted Shariah law. But by that time, the city of Kano was also the center of a large and active film industry, dubbed Kannywood. And it would soon be home to a nascent coterie of hip-hop artists. There followed a series of high-profile conflicts and crises between these forces of religion, politics and art in the years since. But as the Afropop crew discovered in 2017, Kano has achieved a delicate balance that allows film and music to continue apace under the watchful eye of clerics and a censorship board. We visit studios producing local nanaye music, with its echoes of Hausa tradition and Indian film music. We also meet young Hausa hip-hop artists striving to develop careers under uniquely challenging circumstances. Produced by Banning Eyre and Sean Barlow APWW #757
