Podcasts about Lakoff

Conceptual metaphor is a theory in cognitive science that claims understanding and problem-solving often (but not always) happen via systems of metaphor. I present the case for it, and also expand on the theory in the light of previous episodes on ecological and embodied cognition. This episode is theory. The next episode will cover practice.This is the beginning of a series roughly organized around ways of discovering where your thinking has gone astray, with an undercurrent of how techniques of literary criticism might be applied to software documents (including code). Books I drew uponAndrew Ortony (ed.), Metaphor and Thought (2/e), 1993 (four essays in particular: see the transcript).Lakoff and Johnson, Metaphors We Live By, 1980. (I worked from the first edition; there is a second edition I haven't read.)Two of the Metaphor and Thought essays have PDFified photocopies available:Reddy's "The Conduit Metaphor – A Case of Frame Conflict in Our Language About Language"Lakoff's "The Contemporary Theory of Metaphor"Other things I referred toHelper T cellsRichard P.

In Part 6 of this Election Debrief series, Miyanovich and Bacon discuss: Josh's original expectations for election outcome, the psychological dysfunction of our current society, Big Man / Sky-Dad Redux, Chritstofascist Dreams, Trump and Musk are Beta AF, Lakoff's Hierarchy, appealing to the center, the Dems kowtowing to lib-bretz, Josh's liberalism, free speech and Carlin's Bane, and Trump's clown show being a trial run that we failed.

In dieser speziellen Spezialfolge haben wir eine Spezialistin als Gästin im digitalen Raum: Lena Völkening ist Sprachwissenschaftlerin an der Uni Oldenburg und hat sich für uns durch den linguistischen Forschungsdschungel geschlagen und wir durften ihr auf Schritt und Tritt folgen. Sie zeigt trickreich auf, was Gendern in unseren Köpfen macht, und stößt uns dabei beinahe spielerisch auf unsere eigenen internalisierten Stereotype. Es stellt sich dabei heraus, dass Gendern nicht gleich Gendern ist, sondern sich der gewünschte Effekt in unseren Köpfen nur bei manchen Formen einstellt. Lena erklärt uns auch, warum Gendern eigentlich auch gar nicht gendergerecht ist, aber wieso es sich trotzdem lohnen kann. Eine faktenbasierte Streiftour durch die kognitive Genderlinguistik und die (vorläufige) Antwort auf die Frage: Was sagt die Sprachwissenschaft eigentlich zum Gendern?

In this episode, we focus on how our imaginations are essential to moral decision-making and help us evaluate the possible outcomes of our actions. As part of this, we also discuss the shortcomings of rigid moral systems and the necessity of maintaining humility. Our guest scholar in this episode is Dr. Mark Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and Philip H. Knight Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Emeritus at the University of Oregon. --- Dr. Mark L. Johnson is currently Professor Emeritus of Philosophy and Philip H. Knight Professor of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Emeritus. Johnson has authored numerous articles and book chapters on a broad range of topics including philosophy of language, metaphor theory, aesthetics, recent moral theory, ethical naturalism, philosophy and cognitive science, embodied cognition, philosophical psychology, and American pragmatist philosophy. Some of his notable publications include Mind in Nature: John Dewey, Cognitive Science, and a Naturalistic Philosophy for Living (MIT Press, 2023) and, with George Lakoff, of Metaphors We Live By (University of Chicago Press, [1980] 2003). Notably for our study of imagination are his books Moral Imagination: Implications of Cognitive Science for Ethics (1993), and The Body in the Mind: The Bodily Basis of Meaning, Imagination, and Reason (1987). --- While his full catalog of articles and books is far too long to list here, the publications below provide a useful introduction to his scholarship addressing the topic of imagination: Johnson, M.

Das Ding ist... es fühlt sich gut und befreiend an, im Straßenverkehr denjenigen zu beschimpfen, der einen den Parkplatz wegschnappt oder zu fluchen, um den Schmerz beim Tätowieren auszuhalten. Aber wieso eigentlich?In der heutigen Folge tauchen Lensi und Anna in die faszinierende Welt der Schimpfwörter ein. Gemeinsam erkunden sie, welche psychologischen und sozialen Funktionen Schimpfwörter erfüllen und wie sich diese über verschiedene Kulturen und Gruppen hinweg unterscheiden. Dabei geht es um den Stressabbau, die Stärkung von Gruppenzusammenhalt und die Macht von Worten, soziale Normen zu brechen. Auch die psychologische Perspektive kommt nicht zu kurz: Wie beeinflusst das Fluchen unser emotionales Wohlbefinden? Und welche Rolle spielen Schimpfwörter in der menschlichen Kommunikation? Warum ist das H-Wort ein gutes Schimpfwort?Abgerundet wird diese Folge durch ein Spiel: in welcher Situation nutzt man bestenfalls welches Schimpfort!Findet es heraus und habt Spaß beim Hören!

Non voglio parlare della tragedia senza senso di Sharon Verzeni, ma dei titoli di giornale alla vigilia della cattura e confessione del suo carnefice.Un ITALIANO. Un ITALIANO e DISOCCUPATO. Una scelta precisa che solleva questioni per me fondamentali sulla comunicazione mediatica e la manipolazione dei frame cognitivi. Per farlo dobbiamo parlare di Lakoff, di framing e analizzare come l'uso di certi termini e descrizioni influenzi la percezione pubblica: di come i frame siano diventati un campo di battaglia tra conservatori e progressisti, e degli impatti sociali e politici.E di come il linguaggio sbagliato può rafforzare o distruggere determinati concetti, come il dibattito su #IusScholae.Un campo minato da percorrere in punta di piedi.

Neste segundo encontro, Ricardo Cunha Lima (UFPE) debateu "metáforas políticas, como elas nos dividem"​.Tivemos como base um texto que introduziu o grupo à teoria das metáforas cognitivas, proposta por George Lakoff e Mark Johnson em "Metáforas da Vida Cotidiana", considerando sua aplicabilidade em questões políticas. O texto, cuja teoria e linguagem são bastante acessíveis, foi retirado do livro "Don't think of an elephant" de Lakoff. É uma abordagen voltada à práxis, com a intenção de provocar um engajamento político consciente do seu leitor. Durante a conversa debatemos muito o papel da ilustração e cartum como metáfora, procurando entender como a comunicação visual metafórica dialoga com o seu público leitor.O encontro foi mediado por Rafael Efrem (IFPB), com a participação de Marcos Beccari (UFPR), Daniel Bueno (EBAC), Alex Torres, Hana Luiza e muitos outros membros do grupo.O evento foi fechado e participaram apenas os inscritos no grupo de estudos.

Good riddance to George Lakoff's Moral Politics! In this season finale, we discuss the last section of Lakoff's book, in which he lays out his reasons for being a liberal. His reasons are of course based on his book-long characterization of conservatives as being stupid, crazy, and evil, so his stance is not exactly one we agree with. We also discuss what pieces of value we gained from reading this book and lessons for the future as we move on to Season 9!Follow us on Twitter, and send us some book suggestions for Season 9! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

This guy doesn't even know about federalism! Join us as we discuss George Lakoff's magnificent discussion on how he is confused by the concept of federalism, and how he divides up other varieties of liberals and conservatives. We also discuss how Lakoff fundamentally refutes his entire book, insinuates that conservatives are one step away from being violent extremists, and doesn't seem to know much of anything at all. We also diss libertarians and talk about all of the problems with the modern Classics field! Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

At this point, our criticisms of Lakoff have even started boring even us, so in this episode, we use his brief (and incorrect) descriptions of liberal and conservative approaches to Christianity and abortion as jumping-off points for our own ideas. We discuss the necessity of a hierarchy within religion (such as in Catholicism), why separation of church and state does not mean what most people think it does, the importance of religious elected officials, and much more! Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

Is this our angriest episode yet? Possibly! Join us as we discuss George Lakoff's thoughts on some of the most controversial topics: affirmative action, gay rights, education, the environment, and much more! As always, we point out the issues with an overly simplistic description of the conservative point of view and try to describe the much deeper ideals behind conservative thought. By this point, we're pretty fed up with George Lakoff and are committing to a new goal: MLGA - Make Linguistics Great Again!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

As we all know, conservatives simply view the legal system in a very simple formula: more punishment = more good. Conservatives are certainly not concerned with a millenia-old theological, philosophical, legal, and moral tradition that argues for the responsibility of an individual's free will or anything like that. Join us as we discuss George Lakoff's theories on how conservatives and liberals view crime, covering topics such as the death penalty, societal factors, and nature vs. nurture.Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

Ignoring his horrible takes on conservatism, George Lakoff actually does a decent job of explaining the liberal worldview on social programs and taxes. Maybe this shouldn't be surprising - he definitely agrees with the liberals on everything. Join us as we discuss his analysis of liberal and conservative approaches to economic and social problems, ranging from immigration to military spending to charitable organizations!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

George Lakoff is right about one thing: conservatives do not like Hillary Clinton. In this episode, we look at Lakoff's descriptions of how liberals and conservatives categorize the ideal and worst citizens. Do conservatives really just care about upholding the current authority? Are liberals the only ones who believe in virtues? Lakoff seems to think so, and we criticize him heavily! Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinionsGive us your opinions here!

Send us a Text Message.In this episode, we actually give Lakoff some credit! He is embarking on a good project: analyzing liberal and conservative speech into a cohesive cognitive worldview. Unfortunately, he still can't seem to understand conservatives. We look at his descriptions of how liberals misunderstand conservatives (and his simplistic counters to those misunderstandings), how conservatives misunderstand conservatives, and how exactly he plans to create his model.Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

Send us a Text Message.Despite not really understanding morality, Lakoff does accurately describe the views of the nurturant parent! Join us as we discuss his description of this moral system that believes that people who need help should be treated like children, that promoting your self-interest is a moral good, and sensuality is a virtue! We discuss what we think is wrong (and very briefly what is right) about this moral system and how Lakoff describes it somewhat effectively!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

Does George Lakoff understand nothing about conservative morality? Maybe! Join us as we discuss his idea of Strict Father Morality, a system that he thinks conservatives believe in, with respect only for authority and strict punishments for those who do wrong. Somehow, Lakoff misses the fact that conservatives tend to believe in an objective morality that exists beyond worldly authority, but that does not stop him from professing his ideas, nor does it stop us from heavily criticizing this chapter of Moral Politics!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

Which came first? Foundational moral thinking or metaphors that we use to express those foundations? George Lakoff seems to think the language came first! Join us as we try to figure out Lakoff's chicken-or-the-egg moral system as he outlines the metaphor of accounting and how morality is viewed as a system of transactions. Are we all really just trying to reach net zero in our moral obligations, or is there something much deeper to morality?Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

NON pensate a un ELEFANTE ROSA.Ecco, ora state pensando TUTTI esattamente a quello. L'elefante rosa di Lakoff è uno degli esempi più celebri per dimostrare come la mente umana non concepisce il concetto di ''negazione''. E ora provate a sostituire l'elefante con il generale Vannacci. Magari pubblicando il suo volto parzialmente censurato dalla scritta ''IGNORALO''. Riuscite a ignorarlo? No, vero? Questo è esattamente quello che ha fatto il PD nel weekend, in un disastroso cortocircuito comunicativo in grado solo di dare visibilità all'avversario e mettere in risalto (ahimè) l'inadeguatezza del partito... »»»Con la [Membership PRO] puoi supportare il Canalehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm5H2LH2ISgpX-X5-SP4Vrg/join»»»Sono MATTEO FLORA e sono professore (ac) in Fondamenti di Sicurezza delle AI e delle SuperIntelligenze (ESE) e Corporate Reputation e Crisis Management (Pavia).Sono un Imprenditore Seriale del digitale e ho fondato The Fool, la società italiana leader di Customer Insight, co-fondato The Magician un atelier di Advocacy e Gestione della Crisi, e sono Partner e co-fondatore dello Studio Legale 42 Law Firm.Sono Future Leader IVLP del Dipartimento di Stato USA sotto Amministrazione Obama nel programma “Combating Cybercrime (2012)”, conduco in TV “Intelligenze Artificiali” su Mediaset/TgCom, scrivo di “Artificial Intelligence” su Il Riformista e da questa è la casa di “Ciao Internet!” il più seguito video-podcast di Tech Policies in lingua italiana.CANALE WHATSAPP » https://link.mgpf.it/waCANALE TELEGRAM » https://mgpf.it/tgCORSO (Gratis) IN FUTURO » https://mgpf.it/nlInfo sulle Aziende: http://matteoflora.com/#aziendePer contatti commerciali: sales@matteoflora.com

Our very first episode with a live studio audience! Join us as we discuss what linguist George Lakoff views as the worldviews of liberals and conservatives. In this episode, we examine what Lakoff thinks confuses liberals about conservative views (while also just attempting to refute the conservative opinion), the different words that people on the right and left use, and what he sees as the goal for studying these worldviews. Despite his accurate assessment of what each worldview is, we find a lot to criticize in this chapter, and go on many, many tangents!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

In this episode, we discuss George Lakoff's completely analytical, opinion-free, 100% objective explanation of what he views as the role of cognitive linguists in examining liberal and conservative worldviews. We discuss whether or not unconscious thoughts truly exist, the importance of categories, and Lakoff's ever-present idea of conservatives being a mysterious "gorilla in the mist!" We also discuss what he gets severely wrong about the relation of political opinions to moral philosophy, and why your moral beliefs truly matter in political conversation.Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

In this first episode of Season 8, we look at the preface to our new book: George Lakoff's Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think, which examines the different linguistic metaphors that liberals and conservatives use to shape their worldview. We discuss Lakoff's plan for the book, how he draws his conclusions, and the immense amount of biases that he presents just in the introduction. We also go on many rants, including one about an Easter egg hunt that is spurred by the acknowledgements!Follow us on Twitter! https://twitter.com/UlmtdOpinions

Dario MantovaniDroit, culture et société de la Rome antiqueCollège de FranceAnnée 2023-2024Le corps du droit, « Corpus Iuris ». Imaginer le droit par les métaphores corporelles dans la littérature juridique romaine01 - Dire autre chose pour dire le droit. Introduction aux métaphores comme outil de pensée dans la Rome antiqueRésuméLa métaphore est le transport d'un mot de sa signification propre à une autre signification. Par elle, on exprime une idée au moyen d'un terme qui normalement en désigne une autre.Il s'agit parfois d'une façon de rendre le discours plus élégant. D'autres fois, cela répond à une nécessité, parce qu'on manque de mots pour décrire de façon assez claire ce dont on veut parler.Les sciences sont riches en métaphores et, plus largement, de tropes. Cela vaut aussi pour le droit, alors qu'on s'attendrait au contraire pour cette langue de précision. Mais le droit n'existe pas à l'état naturel : c'est une technique développée par les sociétés humaines pour réduire les conflits. Et justement, comme la plupart des figures juridiques n'existent pas à l'état naturel, pour les rendre plus compréhensibles, il faut les rapprocher de ce qui constitue déjà notre expérience, notamment le corps et ses parties. C'est une façon d'insérer l'indicible dans un cadre familier et, par ce biais, de l'appréhender.C'est pourquoi souvent on parle d'autre chose pour parler de droit, en recourant à des métaphores et à d'autres tropes, comme lorsque les juristes romains disent « L'esclave ayant été manumis ne perd pas sa tête, parce qu'il n'avait pas de tête ». Un propos apparemment bizarre, mais qui avait une signification précise dans la langue juridique.Quintilien, maître de l'art du discours, notait que nous avons tous recours à des métaphores, sans en être toujours conscients. C'est à ce même résultat que la linguistique cognitiviste est parvenue ces dernières décennies, notamment avec le livre fondateur de Lakoff et Johnson. Les métaphores – nous expliquent-ils – sont dans la vie quotidienne. Ce qui fait tout leur intérêt est que souvent, sous une métaphore, on devine un concept plus profond, voire une façon de concevoir le monde : par exemple, considérer le temps comme de l'argent ou un procès comme une bataille ou une loi comme pourvue de volonté. C'est en suivant cette voie, qui considère la métaphore corporelle comme un détecteur de modèles culturels, que le cours tentera de pénétrer la mentalité des juristes romains, de remonter à l'origine du droit, et au fond aussi de réfléchir à notre propre façon de penser la justice. Ce premier cours introduira le cadre méthodologique.

Chapter 1 What's Metaphors We Live By Book by George Lakoff, Mark Johnsen"Metaphors We Live By" is a book written by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson. The book explores the significant role that metaphors play in shaping our everyday thoughts, actions, and perceptions of the world. Lakoff and Johnson argue that metaphors are not just stylistic devices or literary flourishes, but rather fundamental cognitive mechanisms that structure our understanding of reality. They propose that metaphors are pervasive and unconscious, influencing our language, thinking, and behavior in profound ways.The authors examine various aspects of human experience and delve into the ways in which metaphors structure our concepts and reasoning. They illustrate how metaphors shape our understanding of time, morality, love, politics, and many other areas of life. Through numerous examples and analyses, Lakoff and Johnson demonstrate that metaphors are not mere rhetorical embellishments, but integral to our everyday cognition."Metaphors We Live By" challenges the traditional view of metaphor as a figure of speech and highlights the role of metaphor in shaping our thought processes. It has had a significant impact on cognitive science, linguistics, philosophy, and other fields, as it offers a fresh perspective on the intricacies of human reasoning and language use.Chapter 2 Is Metaphors We Live By Book A Good BookYes, "Metaphors We Live By" by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson is widely regarded as a good book. It revolutionizes the understanding of metaphors and their impact on our everyday thinking and communication. The book explores how metaphors shape our understanding of various concepts, from time and love to politics and philosophy. It presents insightful arguments and examples, making it a thought-provoking and valuable read for anyone interested in language, cognition, and communication.Chapter 3 Metaphors We Live By Book by George Lakoff, Mark Johnsen Summary"Metaphors We Live By" by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson is a book that explores the pervasive role of metaphor in our everyday lives. The authors argue that metaphors not only shape our thoughts and language but also influence the way we understand the world.The book begins by introducing the concept of "metaphorical thought," which suggests that our thinking is fundamentally structured by metaphors. Lakoff and Johnson contend that these metaphors are not merely linguistic devices but instead deeply rooted in our embodied experiences.The authors delve into various domains of metaphor, including time, causation, and morality, to demonstrate how metaphors shape our understanding of these concepts. They examine the metaphors we use to talk about time, such as "time is money," and how these metaphors influence our perception of time as a limited resource.Throughout the book, Lakoff and Johnson argue that metaphors are not just figures of speech, but actually convey cognitive frameworks that determine how we interpret the world. They also emphasize the influence of cultural and social factors in shaping metaphors.In addition to exploring the cognitive aspect of metaphors, the authors also address the ethical implications of metaphoric thinking. They argue that metaphors perpetuate certain cultural values and ideologies, and challenge readers to critically examine the metaphors they use and encounter in order to recognize and challenge oppressive ideologies.Overall, "Metaphors We Live By" provides a compelling argument for the pervasive influence of metaphors in shaping our thoughts, language, and understanding of the world. It invites readers to rethink the role of metaphor and encourages a deeper reflection on the cultural and political...

Today I talked to Mark Staff Brandl about his new book A Philosophy of Visual Metaphor in Contemporary Art (Bloomsbury, 2023). Brandl is an artist and art historian with a PhD from the University of Zurich. He is an Associate Professor of Art History Emeritus at the Art Academy of Liechtenstein and Higher Professional College for Art in St. Gallen, Switzerland. His work has been shown in galleries and museums in America, Europe, Egypt and elsewhere. Brandl is by his own admission an iconoclast, and somebody who mixes philosophical discourse with more polemical “rants” in advocating for creativity. For instance, as addressed in this episode Brandl does not hesitate to find fault with contemporary artists who take the “cheap out” of relying (too much) on irony, instead of sparking hope; and likewise with collectors of art who often function merely as speculators. Brandl's approach honors Lakoff and Johnson's seminar book, Metaphors We Live By, while applying their approach to the visual arts. A notable example is that for Brandl the artist Van Gogh can be thought of in terms of a passionate flame (the metaphor being, passion is hot), with cypress trees that can appear like candles in the way they've been painted. To understand how form and content intertwine in art, this episode offers a good jumping off point. Dan Hill, PhD, is the author of ten books and leads Sensory Logic, Inc. (https://www.sensorylogic.com). His latest two books are Blah Blah Blah: A Snarky Guide to Office Lingo and Emotionomics 2.0: The Emotional Dynamics Underlying Key Business Goals.

Is it a bad day that puts someone in a bad mood, or could it be the room they're sitting in? The environments we place ourselves in function as much more than just mere backdrops, and the way spaces are designed can greatly influence how the people in them feel and react. A simple window can mean the difference between health and sickness, and the height of a ceiling may unlock creativity.Sarah Williams Goldhagen is an architecture critic and an author. Her latest book, Welcome to Your World: How the Built Environment Shapes Our Lives, is about how the environments we are in shape us in some ways we realize and in many ways that we don't.Sarah and Greg discuss Sarah's background and how she forged her own path to the field of environmental psychology. They talk about different known features of built architecture that affect humans in non-conscious ways, like higher ceilings, sharp angles, and the presence of windows. Sarah also introduces and explains how we experience a sort of ‘blindsight' everyday.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The importance of attention management for designers13:54: I often say to architects part of your job is attention management. Don't make people pay attention when they're just trying to find their way. They've got better things to do. They're stressed anyway, unless they're going into a hospital, a classroom, or whatever. They want to get there. That's not where you want them to pay attention, but you do want them to pay attention in, for example, so-called “restorative spaces,” which are spaces that people can deliberately design in order to slow people down, let them notice, in a fascinated and intriguing way, what's around them, which is shown to lower cortisol levels, relax people, and make them less stressed. Neutral buildings don't exist19:43: There is no such thing as a neutral building. If a building is not helping the people who are using it, it's probably hurting them. And you can do a bad building or a good building at any level of investment for the same amount of money.Do we have blindsight in our environments?28:15: Most of the time, people don't pay a whole lot of attention to their environments. They're busy. We're all busy. You're not thinking about your environment, but that doesn't mean the environment isn't affecting you. So in this sense, we're all blindsighted.Something to look forward to in the built environment42:53: The most interesting thing that is happening in the built environment right now is probably related to the workplace because nobody can figure out what the workplace is for, how to use it, what it should be for, how to reconfigure these monoliths that we have that were meant for a kind of work that most people don't want to do anymore. And I think that there is more data. Around the workplace and around healthcare than there is around anything else. Because, of course, those are two big money drivers in the economy, and it will be very interesting to see. And some organizations involved in this space are already beginning to incorporate insights from environmental psychology and other research?Show Links:Recommended Resources:Metaphors We Live By by Lakoff and JohnsonThe Mirror Neuron SystemBlindsight BBC ArticlePeter Barrett's Classroom ResearchAcademy of Neuroscience for ArchitectureGuest Profile:Professional Profile on Van Alen InstituteSarah Williams Goldhagen's WebsiteSarah Williams Goldhagen on LinkedInSarah Williams Goldhagen on TwitterSarah Williams Goldhagen on InstagramSarah Williams Goldhagen on Talks at GoogleHer Work:Sarah Williams Goldhagen on Google ScholarWelcome to Your World: How the Built Environment Shapes Our LivesLouis Kahn's Situated Modernism

On this episode of Rehash, we're chatting about the intersection of defi and NFTs with none other than Ben Lakoff, co-founder of Charged Particles. We kick off the episode talking about Ben's background and how he got into web3 back in 2016. He takes us through his journey to becoming the co-founder of Charged Particles and gives us the scoop on what it is, how to use it, and some core use cases. Ben tells us about the NFT project, Particlon, and how it came to be. He explains the interesting and unique utility of these NFTs for blockchain gaming and gives us some insight for what to expect from Particlon in the future. We dive into some DAO philosophy and speculate on what the future of web3 could look like. We talk about the dangers and benefits of regulation, as well as some key principles we'd like to see DAOs follow and some trends we'd like to see DAOs avoid. Finally, Ben sends us off with some tips on how to get involved in the web3 space.To continue this conversation and stay up to date on all things Rehash, you can follow Diana on Twitter @ddwchen and Rehash @rehashweb3.

Mint Season 4 episode 27 welcomes Ben Lakoff, co-founder of Charged Particles, which is new protocol that lets you put digital assets inside your NFTs. Now, ordinary NFTs (think neutral molecules) can contain a digital "charge" inside — ERC20, ERC721 or ERC1155 — giving you the unprecedented power to create nested NFTs.In this episode, we discuss how creators can tap into the variety of use cases presented by dynamic NFTs and their upcoming NFT drop, Particlon.I hope you enjoy our conversation.Ben Lakoff: https://twitter.com/benlakoffMore on Particlon: https://www.particlon.xyz/Charged Particles: https://www.charged.fi/Learn more by visiting: https://adamlevy.io/mint---------------------------------------------------------------------------Claim your FREE Listener Badge NFT proving you listened to this episodehttps://adamlevy.io/poap-season-4---------------------------------------------------------------------------Support Season 4's NFT sponsors1.

This is Cognitive Revolution, my show about the personal side of the intellectual journey. Each week, I interview an eminent scientist, writer, or academic about the experiences that shaped their ideas. The show is available wherever you listen to podcasts.This week’s guest is George Lakoff. George is one of the most highly cited cognitive scientists of all time, with his book Metaphors We Live By (co-authored with Mark Johnson) having been referenced in over 75,000 other scientific papers. George is best known for his work on how metaphor provides the structure of cognition, generally known as the “conceptual metaphors” framework, as well as his foundational ideas about the embodied mind. In last week’s episode, I talked with Annie Murphy Paul about her recent book, The Extended Mind, which draws heavily on the program of research of which Lakoff is a cornerstone. Lakoff is also politically very active, though we venture much into those topics in this conversation. In this episode our discussion mainly centers around George’s formative experiences—particularly in his childhood and adolescence; notable among them is the time he lived with a murder—as well as the genesis of his most famous ideas in cognitive science and linguistics (the latter starts around minute 40:00).Like this episode?

In this special episode, Ben Lakoff, Co-Founder & Business Lead at Charged Particles talks to Doc and Oz about what Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) are, the common misconceptions associated with their use case, and how his project, Charged Particles provides multiple use cases for NFT in the Decentralized Finance and overall cryptocurrency space. The episode ends with a round of fun questions.Date of podcast recording: Tuesday 7th SeptemberAbout Charged Particles:Charged Particles are Interest-bearing Non-Fungible Tokens (DeFi NFTs). A “Particle” is ANY Non-Fungible Token that, via the Charged Particles Protocol, is minted with an interest-bearing token (e.g. aDAI) to accrue interest over time, giving the token a “Charge.”The amount of interest earned from the token represents the amount of “Charge” that the particle has amassed.https://www.charged.fi/About Ben Lakoff:https://www.benlakoff.com/Ben's Podcast: The Alt Asset Allocation PodcastTwitter:Ben Lakoff - @benlakoffCharged Particles - @DefiNftWeb resources for topics discussed in this podcast:Medium article by Ben Lakoff: NFT “Gift Baskets” for DeFi Onboarding or As Trust AccountsBlog article on Binance: Our Guide to NFTs (Non-fungible Tokens) and Crypto CollectiblesPolygon: https://polygon.technology/Korea IT Times Article and interview with Ben Lakoff about Charged Particles: How Charged Particles merges DeFi and NFT?Special thanks to @Bull_Sander for helping to arrange the podcast interview.Crypto Unplugged Social MediaTwitter:Doc - @DrCrypto47Oz - @AskCryptoWealthCrypto Unplugged - @crypto_unplugdCrypto Unplugged YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiNxD56lZUk8XpCgy8h-XGACrypto Unplugged on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/crypto_unplugged/Crypto Unplugged Telegram Community Channel:https://t.me/cryptounpluggedSubsocial Network:Crypto Unplugged - https://app.subsocial.network/5191Doc -  https://app.subsocial.network/5180Pinterest:https://www.pinterest.co.uk/cryptounpluggedukLinktree:https://linktr.ee/cryptounpluggedFor crypto and Bitcoin articles on technical and fundamental analysis, project reviews on altcoins, and more visit the Crypto Unplugged Website:https://cryptounplugged.co.uk

Welcome to The Story of Language: an original podcast series about language, linguistics, cognition, and culture. In this episode we talk about the fundamental role of metaphor in language, from its involvement in the creation and evolution of language to its role in the modern understanding of language through the work of Lakoff and Johnson, and the study of semiotics.

On today's show, the re:verb team gets “meta” - metaPHORICAL, that is! On this re:blurb episode, we discuss the rhetorical and linguistic features of conceptual metaphors, which provide us with a way to make connections between two (often very different) processes. To put it more simply: have you ever heard the phrase “time is money”? Have you ever scolded someone for *wasting* their time, telling them that they could *spend* it doing something more *worthy*? If so, you've been using a very common conceptual metaphor!Listen in as we break down a vast array of conceptual metaphors, from cultural metaphors that mediate our cognition and everyday social life to political metaphors wielded by the powerful to frame tendentious policies and practices in ways beneficial to them. As an example of the latter, we provide an analysis of the mixed political metaphor “sowing discord,” often used in the context of U.S. foreign policy rhetoric about Russia. Despite what the latter metaphor implies, we hope that this episode takes root in your mind and provides music to your ears!Metaphor Theory References:Chilton, P. A. (1996).

A look at the notion of metaphor, informed by the work of Lakoff and Johnson, and what it adds to the how we understand systems of belief.

The president and his administration use rhetoric every day in speeches, press conferences, and written texts like executive orders and proclamations, but the material effects of this discourse can sometimes be difficult to observe. Today, however, the United States is the epicenter both for the COVID-19 pandemic and an unprecedented wave of civil resistance against local police departments and federal enforcement actions authorized by the president. So, how is the current administration's rhetoric implicated in the pandemic, policing, and protest?To help us navigate these questions, our guest today is Dr. Cameron Mozafari, who uses methods from corpus linguistics to analyze emotional appeals and other rhetorical patterns in presidential speeches. First, Cameron walks us through his recent Trump-COVID 19 Corpus project, in which he has collected and organized all of the Trump Administration's public statements about the Coronavirus crisis. Based on initial analyses of this data, we discuss Trump's treatment of the virus as a war (as opposed to more typical framings of pandemics as water or natural disasters); the differences in register and epistemic certainty between the language employed by Trump and that of Drs. Fauci and Birx; as well as how (in)frequently Trump and Pence use the words "mask" and "social distancing" vs. words related to war.Next, we analyze a related instance of problematic presidential rhetoric: the recent “Executive Order on Protecting American Monuments, Memorials, and Statues and Combating Recent Criminal Violence." We talk through how the order constructs a dichotomy between US national identity & "property" vs. Marxism / Anarchism & "crime" / "violence." This dissociation, we argue, is an attempt to shore up the administration's and local police departments' legitimacy at a time of unpopularity and unrest. It also serves to mask the state violence that has incited recent popular unrest and been wielded in response to it. Finally, Cameron tells us about a violent incident earlier this summer at a protest in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and we consider how clashes like this one are revelatory of the material effects of presidential rhetoric.Works referenced in this episodeBlaire, C.

In this re:joinder episode, Calvin presents Alex and Sophie with a set of op-eds -- all published in ostensibly liberal magazines -- that retroactively justify President Trump's Jan. 3, 2020 assassination of Qasem Soleimani, major general of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. In our analysis, we expose the presuppositions latent in these articles' narratives of post-9/11 US foreign policy, filling in some missing context about US ground and proxy wars in the Middle East since the second-half of the 20th century. We break down the tactics used in these articles to construct Soleimani as an enemy figure for US & European audiences, part of a broader US strategy of demonizing the government of Iran. We also compare these pieces to discourses about prior US assassination targets such as ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. Finally, we consider how American war discourse is shaped by our (lack of) proximity to its material consequences, and consider how this constrains political possibilities in the US.Texts Analyzed in this EpisodeAarabi, K.
