L'artista è carico per l'appuntamento dell'Unipol Forum di Assago di domenica 25 maggio, uno show che si preannuncia pirotenico, come sempre accade per i suoi concerti dal vivo: «In questo periodo sto ritrovando le energie, sarà un tour esplosivo. Mi piace pensare che nel mondo musicale e artistico alla fine non sia tutto troppo cambiato rispetto a prima, sono cambiate le situazioni ma bisogna oggi arrangiarsi come serviva farlo ieri: cerco di trovare i miei tempi e i miei spazi - racconta l'artista a Lilly e Katia, che poi si sono focalizzate sulla copertina di Sottomarini, l'ultimo singolo, in cui si vede Alessandro da piccolo -.

Nomads at the Frontier: Nabeel Mahmood on the Future of Data Centers and Disruptive Sustainability

WASHINGTON, D.C.— At this year's Data Center World 2025, held earlier this month at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, the halls were buzzing with what could only be described as industry sensory overload. As hyperscalers, hardware vendors, and infrastructure specialists converged on D.C., the sheer density of innovation underscored a central truth: the data center sector is in the midst of rapid, almost disorienting, expansion. That made it the perfect setting for the latest episode in our ongoing podcast miniseries with Nomad Futurist, aptly titled Nomads at the Frontier. This time, I sat down in person with Nabeel Mahmood, co-founder and board director of the Nomad Futurist Foundation—a rare face-to-face meeting after years of remote collaboration. “Lovely seeing you in person,” Mahmood said. “It's brilliant to get to spend some quality time at an event that's really started to hit its stride—especially in terms of content.” Mahmood noted a welcome evolution in conference programming: a shift away from vendor-heavy pitches and toward deeper, mission-driven dialogue about the sector's true challenges and future trajectory. “Events like these were getting overloaded by vendor speak,” he said. “We need to talk about core challenges, advancements, and what we're doing to improve and move forward.” A standout example of this renewed focus was a panel on disruptive sustainability, in which Mahmood joined representatives from Microsoft, AWS, and a former longtime lieutenant of Elon Musk's sustainability operations. “It's not just about e-cycling or carbon,” Mahmood emphasized. “We have to build muscle memory. We've got to do things for the right reasons—and start early.” That starting point, he argued, is education—but not in the traditional sense. Instead, Mahmood called for a multi-layered approach that spans K–12, higher education, and workforce reskilling. “We've come out from behind the Wizard of Oz curtain,” he said. “Now we're in the boardroom. We need to teach people not just how technology works, but why we use it—and how to design platforms with real intention.” Mahmood's remarks highlighted a growing consensus among forward-thinking leaders: data is no longer a support function. It is foundational. “There is no business, no government, no economy that can operate today—or in the future—without data,” he said. “So let's measure what we do. That's the KPI. That's the minimum threshold.” Drawing a memorable parallel, Mahmood compared this kind of education to swimming lessons. “Sure, you might not swim for 20 years,” he said. “But if you learned as a kid, you'll still be able to make it back to shore.” Inside-Out Sustainability and Building the Data Center Workforce of Tomorrow As our conversation continued, we circled back to Mahmood's earlier analogy of swimming as a foundational skill—like technology fluency, it stays with you for life. I joked that I could relate, recalling long-forgotten golf lessons from middle school. “I'm a terrible golfer,” I said. “But I still go out and do it. It's muscle memory.” “Exactly,” Mahmood replied. “There's a social element. You're able to enjoy it. But you still know your handicap—and that's part of it too. You know your limits.” Limits and possibilities are central to today's discourse around sustainability, especially as the industry's most powerful players—the hyperscalers—increasingly self-regulate in the absence of comprehensive mandates. I asked Mahmood whether sustainability had truly become “chapter and verse” for major cloud operators, or if it remained largely aspirational, despite high-profile initiatives. His answer was candid. “Yes and no,” he said. “No one's following a perfect process. There are some who use it for market optics—buying carbon credits and doing carbon accounting to claim carbon neutrality. But there are others genuinely trying to meet their own internal expectations.” The real challenge, Mahmood noted, lies in the absence of uniform metrics and definitions around terms like “circularity” or “carbon neutrality.” In his view, too much of today's sustainability push is “still monetarily driven… keeping shareholders happy and share value rising.” He laid out two possible futures. “One is that the government forces us to comply—and that could create friction, because the mandates may come from people who don't understand what our industry really needs. The other is that we educate from within, define our own standards, and eventually shape compliance bodies from the inside out.” Among the more promising developments Mahmood cited was the work of Rob Lawson-Shanks, whose innovations in automated disassembly and robotic circularity are setting a high bar for operational sustainability. “What Rob is doing is amazing,” Mahmood said. “His interest is to give back. But we need thousands of Robs—people who understand how it works and can repurpose that knowledge back into the tech ecosystem.” That call for deeper education led us to the second major theme of our conversation: preparing the next generation of data center professionals. With its hands-on community initiatives, Nomad Futurist is making significant strides in that direction. Mahmood described his foundation as “connective tissue” between industry stakeholders and emerging talent, partnering with organizations like Open Compute, Infrastructure Masons, and the iMasons Climate Accord. Earlier this year, Nomad Futurist launched an online Academy that now features five training modules, with over 200 hours of content development in the pipeline. Just as importantly, the foundation has built a community collaboration platform—native to the Academy itself—that allows learners to directly engage with content creators. “If a student has a question and the instructor was me or someone like you, they can just ask it directly within the platform,” Mahmood explained. “It creates comfort and accessibility.” In parallel, the foundation has beta launched a job board, in partnership with Infrastructure Masons, and is developing a career pathways platform. The goal: to create clear entry points into the data center industry for people of all backgrounds and education levels—and to help them grow once they're in. “Those old jobs, like the town whisperer, they don't exist anymore,” Mahmood quipped. “Now it's Facebook, Twitter, social media. That's how people get jobs. So we're adapting to that.” By providing tools for upskilling, career matching, and community-building, Mahmood sees Nomad Futurist playing a key role in preparing the sector for the inevitable generational shift ahead. “As we start aging out of this industry over the next 10 to 20 years,” he said, “we need to give people a foundation—and a reason—to take it forward.”

Issus du peuple Antandroy, une communauté chamanique du sud de Madagascar, ces artistes utilisent leurs chants et instruments traditionnels pour invoquer les esprits « Kukulamp » et ainsi soigner les villageois, éloignés de toute médecine moderne. L'origine de ce projet unique remonte à une commande du Musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac, qui demandait à Loya de concevoir un concert pour accompagner une exposition dédiée à Madagascar, en s'inspirant des archives sonores du musée. C'est ainsi que Loya découvre la musique de Remanindry et en tombe sous le charme. En 2019, il se rend à Tuléar pour rencontrer ce musicien en personne, donnant lieu à une rencontre musicale d'une rare intensité. De cette alchimie est née l'idée de collaborer sur Blakaz Antandroy, un projet ambitieux qui marie la musique chamanique Antandroy à l'univers de la musique électronique.Remanindry, comme Loya, est né dans l'océan Indien. Tous les deux grandissent en fréquentant des cérémonies faisant appel aux esprits. Les sons, les odeurs et les couleurs intenses lors des cérémonies spirituelles imprègnent profondément tous leurs sens. Loya arrive en Europe et s'initie aux instruments électroniques qu'il va maîtriser plus tard. Remanindry commence son apprentissage de la musique Antandroy sous la direction éclairée de sa belle-mère, elle-même percussionniste et chanteuse dans les cérémonies. Ancien lutteur, il découvre sa voix puissante qui résonne dans sa carrure imposante. Il apprend le lokanga (violon malgache) et intègre tout le répertoire de sa famille. Il pratique les cérémonies dans tout le sud de Madagascar et décide d'habiter à Tuléar lorsque sa famille s'agrandit. Il fait la rencontre d'autres musiciens malgaches, notamment Régis Gizavo qui découvre tout son talent exceptionnel. Il a été aussi membre du groupe Ny Malegasy Orkestra qui a porté l'étendard de la chanson malgache à l'international. De son côté, Loya commence son apprentissage en devenant ingénieur informaticien. Il apprend à maîtriser les machines et en parallèle entame un parcours d'apprentissage dans les musiques classiques et le jazz. Autodidacte dans les musiques électroniques, il développe son propre processus pour retranscrire les musiques traditionnelles de l'océan Indien sur ses machines.Titres interprétés au grand studio- Koulé Live RFI- Be Sadia + Tokalava + Zilikala Ekarety, extraits de l'album- Kukulamp Live RFI.Line Up : Sébatien Lejeune alias Loya (machines).Son : Jérémie Besset, Mathias Taylor et Camille Roch.► Album Blakaz Antandroy (LZ Records 2024).Site internet - YouTube - Facebook

After traversing seven countries, and spending six years in camps here, Bushra & Mahmood just want a home to raise their family. On this week's episode I had the profound privilege of sitting down with Bushra Ahmed and Mahmood Abdu, a couple whose lives have been defined by a war that is still ongoing in Yemen. Their courage, endurance, and aspiration for their family's future drove them to leave everything behind and begin the journey to find a new home. Their story, spanning seven countries, is one of unimaginable hardship and enforced determination. Bushra and Mahmood fled Yemen in 2017 with their three young sons aged just 3, 6 and 9 at the time. The political unrest and increasing danger made their home untenable. Bushra, once employed by the US Embassy, faced life-threatening risks as tensions escalated. Mahmood had worked for Yemen's Ministry of Agriculture. Both had built stable, professional lives – lives that were upended due to war. Their journey from Yemen went via Oman, Malaysia, Iran, Turkey, Greece, Spain, Belgium, and finally, Luxembourg. In Iran they were living in forests at border with Turkey and had to climb mountains at night and walk, with their three young boys, for two weeks to the capital city of Ankara. There, they paid for a treacherous boat crossing to Kos, captained by someone who didn't know the way. On Kos, where they lived for six months in awful conditions, Mahmood built them a shelter. Finally, they reached Luxembourg in 2019. A new chapter. A place of peace. Another baby. They could not have envisaged still living in camps in 2025. A Hidden Struggle in the Heart of Europe Since arriving in Luxembourg, Bushra and Mahmood have been housed in various refugee camps. Six years later, they're still there. Currently, they live in two small rooms in a camp in Luxembourg City, sharing bathroom and kitchen facilities with five other families. And they pay for it – over €1,100 per month. Despite Luxembourg's wealth and reputation for high living standards, their search for a stable home seems insurmountable. Their teenage sons, now in school in Clervaux, spend four hours a day commuting to and from school. Bushra, works but her health has been deeply impacted by relentless stress. Mahmood, has to manage the travel logistics for the children and support their education, alongside learning French. They have filled out hundreds of housing applications – public and private. But the answer is always the same: too expensive, too large a family, or simply, no response at all. Their story is one of many – but one we rarely hear. Luxembourg's Deepening Housing Crisis To shed light on the broader context, I was joined by RTL's French-language housing journalist, Gaël Arellano. His reporting has laid bare the critical state of housing in Luxembourg. Why is renting so hard – and so expensive? It's a perfect storm: - Population growth vs. housing supply: Luxembourg needs to build around 6,000 new homes per year to keep up with demand. In the last two years, only 700–800 homes were built annually. - Collapse of new construction: Rising interest rates and stagnant prices have stalled new builds. - Pressure shift: As buying has become unaffordable, pressure has shifted to the rental market, pushing rents higher. - Discrimination: Gaël has spoken with real estate agents who confirm that some landlords openly discriminate – against nationalities, large families, even people with children. Though laws exist to cap rent or ensure fair treatment, enforcement is often absent or toothless. And for refugee families like Bushra and Mahmood's, who may not have perfect credit histories or high incomes, the barriers multiply. A Home, Not Just a House Despite all this, Bushra and Mahmood remain incredibly gracious and resilient. Their sons are doing their best in school and have many friends, but they crave a normal, stable home life. “They just want to invite their friends over. They want to feel normal.” They simply want what every parent wants: a stable home where their children can grow, dream, and belong. Luxembourg is their home now. So let's ask ourselves – and our community – what can be done? We know the housing situation in Luxembourg is extremely tough, but so much moreso for refugees who are living in limbo. Bushra and Mahmood's story is so deeply humbling. A family who simply want to start their life from scratch and a build a home for their family. https://play.rtl.lu/shows/fr/la-bulle-immo/episodes

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy addresses the critical issue of children's books and their influence on young minds, particularly regarding gender and sexuality ideologies. She discusses the concerns many parents have about the books their children are exposed to in schools, especially when they lack the opportunity to vet these materials themselves. Highlighting a recent case, Mahmood v. Taylor, Dr. Kathy shares insights into a diverse group of religious parents advocating for their right to opt their children out of storybooks that present one-sided ideologies. The episode emphasizes the importance of parental involvement in selecting appropriate literature for children and offers guidance on how to assess the suitability of books. Sponsored by Creating a Masterpiece, a ministry focused on fostering creativity in children, this episode aims to empower parents in their decision-making regarding their children's reading materials.   creatingamasterpiece.com

Imran Mahmood has 30 years experience as a criminal defence lawyer, working on all manner of high-profile cases. He's taken that knowledge and forged a successful 2nd career as a crime writer. His debut, 'You Don't Know Me', was presented as a closing argument to a jury. It was long-listed for the Theakston Crime Novel of the year, the CWA Gold Dagger in 2017, and was a BBC Radio 2 Book Club Choice. It's been adapted for a BBC/ Netflix Crime Drama. He followed that up with 'I Know What I Saw', which was a Sunday Times Crime Novel of the Month, and is now back with 'Finding Sophie'. It's about Harry and Zara, parents struggling to come to terms with their daughter who is missing. The police are unable to find any leads and they're growing ever more frantic and obsessed with their supicious neighbour who won't answer the door. We discuss his busy life as a barrister with a young family, and why he's chosen to spend what little free time he has writing novels. You can hear how both jobs have affected each other, why talking to a jury has helped novel writing, and why he thinks his greatest skill is simply getting words down.This week's episode is supported by Scribe Shadow, a game-changing tool for writers trying to reach international readers.

Women in prison are resorting to self-harm because of “astonishing gaps” in basic services including strict time limits when contacting their children, according to a new report from His Majesty's Inspectorate of Prisons for England and Wales released today. The report's author Sandra Fieldhouse joins Anita Rani, as does the Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice Shabana Mahmood. Singer and stand-up comedian Hajar J Woodland joins Anita to discuss her show, First Love, coming to Soho Theatre in London. After being raised in a household where singing wasn't encouraged, her show explores the boundaries we put up around ourselves and what it means to finally find love and your voice. New research has quantified for the first time how many young people have been diagnosed with gender dysphoria by GPs in England. Academics at the University of York studied a decade's worth of NHS records and discovered a 50-fold increase in this particular diagnosis between 2011 and 2021. However each general practice will only see one or two such patients each year. Anita speaks to Professor of Health Policy Tim Doran.The French have been told to wear the same T-shirt for five days before washing it, and sports clothing three times. It's part of advice from the government's Ecological Transition Agency, which is trying to get people to do less laundry to save water. So how often should we really be washing our clothes? Anita is joined by Professor Sally Bloomfield from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine to tell us more. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Emma Pearce
