Do conscious experiences happen both within and outside the brain, and can science solve the 'hard problem' of consciousness? At the 2023 Holberg Debate, Tanya Luhrmann, Anil Seth and Rupert Sheldrake met to explore the deep scientific and philosophical mystery of consciousness. The debate was chaired by David Malone. The Holberg Debate is an annual event organized by the Holberg Prize. You can read more and see previous enstallments at holbergprize.org/

Finding a guest for NinetyForChill was going to be especially tough during Easter week. Fortunately, holidays mean family get togethers. Thus, CatBusRuss was able to tempt his sister, ThePoeticCritic, to give him a couple of hours to chat about pre-code musical cinema (primarily "Gold Diggers of 1933") when he returned to Morton to celebrate the savior (be it the Christ or the patriarch of their family). Of course, most conversations with the wisest cinephile of Central Illinois bring up what is happening at the movie theaters and #FilmTwitter. This week, do the Brothers Mario deserve to rule the box office? ThePoeticCritic was curious about her little brother's opinion on whether "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" should have focused on the adult fans of the franchise, parents dragged to the cinema by their wee ones, or just the kiddos. CatBus's biggest concern about Hollywood is the alleged comic book movie downfall and what should fill that void. Should it be maximalist extravaganzas like Baz Luhrman's "Elvis" and Christopher Nolan's "Tenet" or just great stories like Luhrman's "Strictly Ballroom" and Nolan's "Memento"? For those fond of Busby Berkeley's glorified music videos (and I suppose "Flash Dance"), our host may not please you with his thoughts about "Gold Diggers of 1933".
Highlights and lowlights from the Oscars...Is director Baz Luhrman straight, gay or Bi?...Justin Bieber doesn't seem to be too happy...Blac Chyna's ass-reduction surgery almost broke the machine.
The Colonel and The King - Baz Luhrman's Elvis This week Ibrahim and I sit down to discuss the Academy Award nominated, Baz Luhrman directed, Elvis Presley Bio-Pic, Elvis. Definitely a visual assault on the senses, Luhrman has an incredible eye that re-creates the country from the 1950s thru the birth of the Vegas Lounge Act in the 1970s. Featuring an award-winning performance from star, Austin Butler, as Presley and Tom Hanks as his controversial and Svengali-like manager, Colonel Tom Parker (born Andreas Cornelis van Kujik) in a strange and polarizing performance. Luhrman's film hits the familiar points; the music, censorship, racism and segregation, The Blues, Gospel, and - of course - the enduring legacy of Elvis Presley and the early days of the media star and the beginnings of cancel culture. Take a listen; it's an interesting discussion. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com. Our Continued Thanks.
The story about the struggle to control Elvis' image, told from the point of view of his manager Col. Tom Parker. Growing up in a black neighborhood made Elvis Presley different. Writer/Director Baz Luhrman makes every frame count. A big budget Hollywood musical and interesting history of the 20th Century entertainment industry. Spirited musical performances.

What makes the voice of god real? This is the question that has driven Tanya Luhrmann's research for the last twenty years. She has lived with witches, with christians, with zoroastrians, with psychologists, and finds the same pattern woven through the lives of believers: They have trained themselves to have a sensory experience of god. On the podcast we talk about where this ability comes from in the mind and how it changes the initiates. If you like this conversation, you might also like our talks with Brian McVeigh (https://youtu.be/z1-ivI6QgXQ) and Dan Smith (https://youtu.be/EqL3nkYNqGE) about Julian Jaynes' work on the bicameral mind.

In 1996, Baz Luhrman followed up his critically acclaimed Australian ballroom picture with his American blockbuster debut, a modernized adaptation of William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet. This is full of so many people who were on the cusp of breaking out into stardom like Leonardo DiCaprio, who up until this point was mostly known for gritty roles in independent movies like Basketball Diaries and What's Eating Gilbert Grape. It's also neck and neck with Clueless as Paul Rudd's big break. Mike loves Luhrman's Moulin Rouge, and he's a moderate Shakespeare fan. Will Allyson make the right call in assuming this is going to be right up Mike's alley. Or will Mike gun it down in the street like the dude who played Augustus Hill in HBO's OZ?

When coronavirus first breached our borders, one of the first people to be diagnosed with the virus was not an Australian but Hollywood star Tom Hanks. Hanks was in Australia to film Baz Luhrmann's biopic about Elvis Presley and his positive diagnosis shuttered the film set for weeks before the nationwide shutdown stopped filming entirely. But today, the first trailer for the film dropped after Luhrman and his team powered through various lockdowns and restrictions to get the film completed. Today on Please Explain, senior writer Garry Maddox joins Nathanael Cooper to talk about the struggles to get Elvis made, and the struggles of the industry more widely.

We open with this podcast with a discussion about good books, and why we read what we read, and in particular, how fiction can draw you in, grab you, and give experience. Reading fiction is no mere escapist cope, but rather an invitation into other worlds and broadened horizons, a kind of pilgrimage of the imagination. In the second half, Rod pivots to talk about the rise of DMT and other hallucinogens, and the coming mainstreaming of these kinds of "religious hacks." Are they "real," or are they mere phantoms of the mind. These questions move us into a discussion about spiritual realities, and the relative cultural naivete of the modernist delusions. We are participants in the meaning-deserts of modernity, and old books might provide a way to re-enter into the mysteries of creation.

Jamie finally does the episode he has dreaded, Luhrman's Romeo + Juliet. Thankfully his guests Vicki and Alex insisted that they could only talk about the movie if they compared it to the vastly superior Franco Zefereli film. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Literair of niet, als je in een Boyband zit, weet je vast wat van muziek. Toch? Wout Waanders krijgt in elk geval kippenvel, elke keer als Ewan McGregor de eerste zangnoten inzet van Elton Johns klassieker Your Song om Nicole Kidman te paaien. Je leest het goed, de stadsdichter van Nijmegen schuift deze keer aan om te soebatten over een film, en de film is Moulin Rouge! Als er al een film is, die regisseur Baz Luhrmann ten voeten uit is, dan is het die wel. Een overdadige setdesign, volgepropt met visuele geintjes en tierlantijntjes, een bom vol anachronismen lijkt afgegaan en er is één ding dat heiliger lijkt dan al het andere: feestvieren. Wout geniet ervan. Host Ruud, geen fan van Luhrman, deed hem een plezier om die film eindelijk eens te gaan kijken, maar zichzelf blijkbaar niet. Verder gaat het ook over: Max Havelaar, 'Waar is Wallie?' en de betekenis van bestaande liedjes in film, en in een nieuwe context.

Esta semana los de ‘Estamos de Cine' hemos preparado un combo muy especial para levantar el ánimo después de tantos días de lluvia y temporal y con la idea de reactivar la alegría de vivir. Para conseguirlo comenzamos poniéndonos en manos de una auténtica musa, sensual, polifacética, cálida y seductora del cine español. La actriz y cantante Leonor Watling (‘Hable con ella', ‘Son de mar', ‘Mi vida sin mí', Los ‘Crímenes de Oxford') y voz del grupo Marlango, se sienta al piano de ‘Estamos de Cine' para hablarnos de sus inicios, del recuerdo de rodar con Coixet o Almodóvar y de las luces y las sombras de la profesión, del ‘privilegio quizá envenenado' de dedicarse al cine y a la música. Tras dejar que la bella Watling coja el avión para volar con Jorge Drexler desde Casablanca, entraremos en nuestra sala de noticias ‘Newsroom', donde Marta Lobera nos trae noticias frescas sobre ‘The Crown', ‘La Jungla de Cristal', ‘Arde Madrid' o el Festival de Cine de Castilla-La Mancha' (FECICAM) que se celebra entre el 20 y el 24 de marzo. Y quien nos espera a pie de sala es el bisturí mejor afilado del Planeta Cine. El redactor jefe de ‘Metrópoli', el suplemento de ocio del diario ‘El Mundo', Alberto Luchini hará pasar por su quirófano los principales estrenos de la semana: la revisión de la nueva ‘Tomb Raider (Lara Croft); la comedia española ‘ La Tribu' o la sugerente aproximación a ‘María Magdalena' que protagonizan Rooney Mara y Joaquin Phoenix. Un menú antiestrés que se reserva su golpe de mano final con la consulta que hemos pedido a nuestro psicólogo y experto en bandas sonoras, Ángel Luque. Un rato reconfortante para resetear la alegría de vivir y las ganas de comerse el mundo a través de una inyección musical que nos hará tocar el cielo. Una infusión a base de Silvestri, Astaire y Armstrong con un poco de Zimmer y emulsiones de Luhrman que nos harán despedir el programa sintiéndonos como nuevos y con ganas de entrar en la primavera.

Psychiatric science presumes that hallucinations are an uninteresting byproduct of psychosis. This comparison of the voices heard by people with schizophrenia suggests that there are significant cultural variations between the voice-hearing experiences, and that these differences may have implications for treatment. The paper argues that the differences arise because of differences in local theories of mind.
