What happens when a camera company starts thinking less about lenses and specifications and more about how people actually capture and share their lives? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I spoke with Max Richter from Insta360 about the company's journey from pioneering 360-degree cameras to building a much broader ecosystem of hardware, software, AI tools, and creator-focused workflows. While many people still associate Insta360 with immersive 360 content, the company has steadily expanded into action cameras, wearable cameras, webcams, creator tools, and enterprise applications that reach far beyond social media. Our conversation explored how Insta360's philosophy of "shoot first, frame later" challenged traditional assumptions about photography and video creation. Rather than worrying about angles, framing, or missing a moment, users can focus on the experience itself and decide later how they want to tell the story. That approach has helped shape products that are now used everywhere from family vacations and sports adventures to construction sites, virtual tours, education, and live broadcasting. We also discussed the growing role of artificial intelligence in the creative process. Instead of replacing creativity, Insta360 is using AI to remove many of the technical hurdles that often prevent people from sharing the content they capture. From automated editing and intelligent reframing to enhanced low-light performance and future cloud-based experiences, AI is becoming an important part of making professional-quality content creation accessible to a much wider audience. A major focus of our discussion was Luna, Insta360's new pocket gimbal camera developed in partnership with Leica. Max explained why this launch represents an important step for the company as it expands further into the creator market. Combining premium imaging capabilities, advanced stabilization, AI-powered features, and a highly portable design, Luna reflects Insta360's belief that creators increasingly care about the entire workflow, from capture through editing and publishing, rather than camera specifications alone. We also explored an increasingly common question: if modern smartphones are so capable, why would anyone need a dedicated camera? Max shared his perspective on why purpose-built devices still matter for travelers, vloggers, filmmakers, and everyday users who want a more immersive and intentional way to capture life's moments. From AI-powered storytelling and creator workflows to the future of wearable cameras and intelligent imaging, this conversation offers an interesting look at how one company is trying to shape the next chapter of visual content creation. How do you think AI will change the way we capture, edit, and share our stories over the next few years?
In just twelve months, the conversation around Agentic AI in insurance has changed dramatically. What began as curiosity about autonomous AI agents has evolved into a much more practical discussion about implementation, governance, economics and competitive advantage. In this special solo episode, InsTech's Zoja Wojcik reflects on the developments that have shaped the market since InsTech's first Agentic AI event in November 2025. Drawing on conversations with insurers, brokers, MGAs, technology providers and industry leaders, she explores how the industry has moved beyond experimentation and towards a more challenging question: where does the commercial value actually come from? Along the way, you'll hear insights from Simon Torrance, Erdal Atakan, Gina Gill, Elena Maran, Max Richter and Ian Thompson, alongside examples of how organisations including CFC, McGill & Partners, AIG, Duck Creek and hyperexponential are bringing Agentic AI into real insurance operations. Whether you're still trying to understand what Agentic AI means for insurance or already evaluating deployment opportunities, this episode offers a practical snapshot of where the market stands today and the questions leaders should be asking next. Want to continue the conversation? Join us in London on July 7 for 'The age of Agentic AI: from strategy to commercial value'. In this episode: 00:00 - What is Agentic AI and why has it become one of insurance's most discussed technologies? 03:15 - Looking back at the industry's first major Agentic AI event in November 2025 05:45 - Simon Torrance on why Agentic AI should be viewed as a new workforce, not simply another software tool 06:20 - Early deployment examples from across the insurance market: CFC's Lane Assist McGill & Partners and Salesforce Agentforce AIG's AI-driven underwriting initiatives Federato's agentic underwriting platform hyperexponential and Banyan Risk Duck Creek's insurance-native Agentic AI platform 08:15 - Why moving from pilot projects to production remains difficult 10:00 - The defining question of 2026: proving commercial value and ROI 12:15 - Intelligence Capital, competitive advantage and why buying AI tools may only create parity 13:30 - Orchestration, governance and maintaining trust in agentic systems 15:00 - Workforce transformation and practical lessons for insurance leaders 16:00 - What questions should insurance organisations be asking next? Key takeaways: The industry conversation has shifted from experimentation towards implementation and measurable business outcomes. Many of the biggest barriers to adoption are organisational rather than technical. Boards increasingly expect clear economic justification for AI investment. Competitive advantage may come less from AI models themselves and more from institutional knowledge and decision-making expertise. Governance frameworks must evolve alongside increasingly autonomous systems. Organisations that focus on specific business problems are more likely to succeed than those pursuing AI for its own sake.

Hace unas semanas hablamos en la sección sobre ciencia-ficción a cuenta de la película "Project Hail Mary" (en España, "Proyecto Salvación"), y la criticamos moderadamente por su falta de interés en la faceta científica de la historia. Hoy hacemos todo lo contrario: hablamos sobre películas que sí tienen interés en la ciencia, y más importante todavía: en las emociones que la ciencia puede aportar a una historia. Hablamos de películas que incorporan la fascinación del descubrimiento y el proceso mental que nos permite llegar a él. Tomamos como botón de muestra dos filmes: La llegada (Denis Villeneuve, 2016) The Man from Earth (Richard Schenkman, 2007) Sin hacer muchos espóilers comentamos qué hay en cada una de estas películas que las convierte en "ciencia-ficción pata negra", y dejamos para otro día hablar de alguna otra. FE DE ERRORES: Durante la sección decimos varias veces que la música de "La llegada" es de Max Richter, cuando en realidad es de Jóhann Jóhannsson. Nuestros respetos al maestro islandés, que nos dejó demasiado pronto. Si os interesa la ciencia en el cine hay varios episodios que podéis reescuchar para ir tomando nota de elementos interesantes. El capítulo en el que criticamos a "Project Hail Mary" es el s08e31. Además, en este mismo pódcast hemos comentado "Oppenheimer", de Christopher Nolan (s05e22) y "El problema de los tres cuerpos", la serie basada en los libros de Liu Cixin (s06e15). Durante la sección comentamos que ya habíamos hablado sobre "Interstellar", de Christopher Nolan: fue en nuestro pódcast hermano, La Brújula de la Ciencia, en el capítulo s04e10. También, si os interesa simplemente el cine, podéis escuchar a Alberto Aparici analizar películas en el pódcast "Esto salía en una peli francesa", disponible en todas las plataformas. Este programa se emitió originalmente el 4 de junio de 2026. Podéis escuchar el resto de audios de Más de Uno en la app de Onda Cero y en su web, ondacero.es
In this episode, some different introduction music. This is Frédéric Chopin's Nocturne in B-flat minor, Op. 9, No. 1 (from 1832), and the reason is that today's conversation is with Susan Tomes, a celebrated pianist, an author of Nocturnes and the Fascination of Night Music, an engrossing history of the music of twilight and sleep, from the nocturnes of John Field and Chopin to Max Richter. In an insomniac age, ambient and sleep music have become increasingly popular. But our association between music and sleep is not new: lullabies may be the oldest form of music and are instantly recognisable across peoples and cultures. Why does the night hold such musical fascination for us, and what forms do its sounds take? Enjoyed what you heard?

In a recent class with three intermediate students (8th-11th grade), we compared the music of Franz Schubert and Max Richter. Schubert was a prolific Austrian composer, writing at the end of the Classical period and the beginning of the Romantic period. During his brief life, he wrote over 1,500 works. He was known for his storytelling abilities: long, singing lines, dramatic mood swings, an improvisatory style that seems to wander at times, and emotional intensity.Max Richter is a contemporary German-born pianist and composer known for blending classical techniques with electronic, ambient, and minimalist styles. He names J.S. Bach as a key influence, and has championed the works of minimalists such as Arvo Pärt and John Cage. He drew inspiration from Schubert's Winterreise when creating his 2010 album Infra.In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of this studio class, sharing the repertoire I introduced to my students, the discussion questions that guided our conversation, and a composition activity that students didn't want to end.For show notes + a full transcript, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: Some of the links in this episode are affiliate links, which means if you decide to purchase through any of them, I will earn a small commission.

Introduction In this episode, Robin Merttens is joined by Max Richter, EMEA CEO and Global Growth Leader at the mea Platform, to explore why AI in insurance is finally moving from theory into real operational impact. After years advising insurers on transformation at Accenture, Max made the shift to building technology inside the workflows he once analysed. His view is clear: the industry doesn't need more AI strategy, it needs systems that actually execute work. The conversation focuses on a fundamental shift, from using AI to generate insights to using it to get work done. From underwriting to claims and servicing, the opportunity is no longer about reading data faster, but about automating the workflows that sit behind it. Max also shares why previous waves of automation fell short, what's changed in the technology landscape, and why this moment feels different. With stronger models, better integration and growing cost pressure, AI is becoming an operating model question, not just a technology one. In this conversation, Max shares: Why the industry is moving from AI experimentation to execution The shift from automating tasks to automating entire workflows Why “ingestion” is only the starting point, not the end goal Where AI agents are already delivering real impact in underwriting and claims How incumbents and new entrants are approaching adoption differently Why starting with a clear pain point is key to scaling AI successfully The difference between AI theatre and production-grade outcomes Why collaboration with underwriters and operations teams is becoming essential If you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Robin Merttens on LinkedIn.

SOLENOÏDE, émission de 'musiques imaginogènes' diffusée sur 30 radios dans le monde
Solénoïde (30.03.2026) - Pour ce 24e Périple, Vincent Arquillière reprend les commandes du vaisseau Solénoïde et trace une trajectoire libre entre chanson décalée, post-rock, mi-nimalisme et échappées électroniques. De Rien Faire à Philippe Laurent, en passant par Ceramic Dog, Yalla Miku, Tortoise, Coldcut ou Max Richter, ce voyage musical relie les deux rives de l'Atlantique et fait glisser peu à peu les matières sonores du jeu collectif et des instruments incarnés vers des pay-sages plus abstraits, nocturnes et rétrofuturistes. Un périple dense, curieux et sensoriel, pensé comme une dérive exigeante pour oreilles aventureuses.

Awards season is nearing its end, with the BAFTAs later today, February 22, and the Oscars coming on March 15. I'll always say that, although I'm by no means a massive fan (or detractor) of film awards, I'm always happy that it's the one time of year where film music gets to be widely celebrated. The nominee slates also provide great peaks into the state of modern, mainstream film music, and this year's selections are a great cross-section of style and approach. And of course, it gives me an excuse to talk about them a little bit, so read below then listen on. Of the nominees, I interviewed Max Richter for Hamnet and also interviewed Jerskin Fendrix near the end of 2023 for Poor Things (which I would have swore was not that long ago...). This year, the nominees for both sets of awards are the same: Bugonia – Jerskin Fendrix (Interview) Frankenstein – Alexandre Desplat Hamnet – Max Richter (Interview) One Battle After Another – Jonny Greenwood Sinners – Ludwig Göransson

We speak to Joe Bloom, the man behind the social media account 'A View From A Bridge' which shares people's meaningful conversations to millions online. The idea is simple: an old-school phone is placed on a bridge and strangers are invited to pick it up and share their stories. Famous faces such as Max Richter, Cynthia Erivo, Paul Smith and many more have all bared their souls. Plus, the 13-year-old boy who saved his family after they were swept out to sea off the coast of Australia - Austin Appelbee has been described as a 'hero' by emergency services. We meet Leo Gottesman, the 82-year-old goalkeeper. We also hear from the first female mayor of Addis Ababa who has pledged to make it the best city in Africa to be a mother and raise a child -- and, as the Winter Olympics get underway in Milan, we look at the hotel in Scotland producing the world's best curlers.

Min 5: MARTY SUPREME: 4 estrellas "Marty Supreme" es el retrato nervioso y febril de un talento desbordado que se abre paso en los márgenes del sueño americano, una historia de ambición, ego y supervivencia ambientada en el competitivo y poco glamurizado mundo del ping-pong profesional. Dirigida por Josh Safdie (Diamantes en bruto, Good Time), la película sigue el ascenso, caída y reinvención de Marty Mauser, un joven prodigio obsesionado con ganar —a los demás y a sí mismo—, al que da vida Timothée Chalamet, en una interpretación física, sudorosa y permanentemente al borde del estallido. Safdie aplica su ya reconocible estilo de cámara inquieta y pulso acelerado para construir una fábula moderna sobre la masculinidad competitiva y la autoexplotación, rodeando al protagonista de personajes que funcionan como espejos deformantes de su ambición, interpretados por Gwyneth Paltrow y Tyler, The Creator. Más que una película deportiva, Marty Supreme es una disección casi clínica del éxito entendido como obsesión, una huida hacia delante filmada con la electricidad y el caos que han convertido a Safdie en uno de los cronistas más incómodos y certeros del fracaso contemporáneo. Min 15: AÍDA Y VUELTA (4 estrellas) Aída y vuelta es un regreso amable a un barrio que muchos conocen de memoria. Dirigida por Paco León (Carmina o revienta, Rainbow), la película recupera a Aída García, de nuevo con Carmen Machi, que vuelve a Esperanza Sur después de años fuera. El reencuentro sirve para mirar con humor y cierta ternura cómo han cambiado las vidas, el barrio y el país, sin esconder el paso del tiempo ni las cicatrices. El tono mezcla comedia reconocible y momentos más calmados, con la familia y los vecinos como refugio frente a la precariedad y el cansancio acumulado. Junto a Machi regresan Paco León y Eduardo Casanova, entre otros rostros habituales, en una historia que no intenta repetir la serie ni competir con ella. Aída y vuelta funciona mejor como despedida que como relanzamiento: una visita corta, cercana y emocional a un lugar que fue casa para muchos espectadores. Min 21: LA CHICA ZURDA (3,5 estrellas) La chica zurda es una película taiwanesa pequeña y muy cercana que pone el foco en una familia que intenta volver a empezar. Dirigida por Shih-Ching Tsou y con guión de Sean Baker (The Florida Project, Tangerine), la historia sigue a Shu-Fen, una madre soltera que regresa a Taipéi con sus dos hijas para montar un modesto puesto de comida en un mercado nocturno. La mirada se centra especialmente en la hija pequeña, I-Jing, una niña zurda a la que su entorno asocia con antiguas supersticiones, y que empieza a cuestionar, casi sin saberlo, las normas que la rodean. La película observa la vida diaria sin prisa, con escenas sencillas y muy pegadas a los personajes, y habla de trabajo, maternidad y tradición sin subrayados ni grandes discursos. Min 26: SEND HELP (ENVÍA AYUDA) 3 estrellas Send Help es un thriller de supervivencia con mala leche que usa una situación límite para hablar de poder y de relaciones tóxicas. Dirigida por Sam Raimi (Posesión infernal, Spider-Man), la película arranca con un accidente de avión que deja aislados en una isla a dos compañeros de trabajo que apenas se soportan. Rachel McAdams y Dylan O'Brien encarnan a una empleada ninguneada y a su jefe soberbio, obligados a colaborar para sobrevivir mientras salen a la superficie viejas tensiones y resentimientos. Min 31: FRANZ (2,5 estrellas) Franz es un biopic checo-alemán-polaco sobre el escritor Franz Kafka, dirigido por Agnieszka Holland y coescrito con Marek Epstein, que se presenta como un retrato distinto al clásico de vida y obra de un autor. Está rodado en Praga y otras localizaciones de Europa central, con Idan Weiss en el papel de Kafka y un reparto internacional que incluye a Jenovéfa Boková, Peter Kurth, Ivan Trojan y Sandra Korzeniak. Min 34: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON PABLO CONDE El periodista y director de cine manchego Pablo Conde es el invitado de esta semana en la sección "La película de tu vida". El creador del corto "la piscina vacía", uno de los trabajos castellano-manchegos más premiados de 2025, nos confiesa por qué la película "Regreso al futuro", de Robert Zemeckis es su título favorito y el que marcó su amor por el cine y su fascinación por contar historias. Min 39: ESPECIAL BSO "HAMNET": Max Richter toca el cielo y el infierno de Zhao (4 estrellas) La banda sonora de Hamnet es una parte central del tono emocional de la película, y está compuesta por Max Richter, uno de los nombres más reconocidos de la música contemporánea para cine. El álbum Hamnet (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) reúne 18 piezas originales que se mueven entre lo íntimo, lo contemplativo y lo dramático, con títulos como Of Agnes, Of Orpheus, Of Remembrance o Of the Undiscovered Country, que acompañan cada una de las secciones narrativas de la historia y subrayan el viaje emocional de los personajes a lo largo del filme.
If there's one recurring theme each year, it's to expect the unexpected. "Sinners" earned a record 16 nominations for the 98th Academy Awards.

In this week's episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz talk about the biggest snubs and which films could dominate when statuettes are handed out on Sunday, March 15.

We have a Hamnet special for you on Soundtracking, as first writer / director Chloe Zhao and stars Paul Mescal and Jessie Buckley. Based on Maggie O'Farrell's novel - who also worked on the script - it tells the story of how the horrendous tragedy that strikes Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, inspires him to write Hamlet. Hamnet is scored by friend of the show Max Richter, and we'll hear plenty of his music throughout the episode.
On episode 323 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by AwardsWatch Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, TV Editor Tyler Doster, Associate TV Editor Karen Peterson, as well as AwardsWatch contributors Mark Johnson and Dan Bayer to discuss their favorite films of 2025 in part one of the AW end of the year show. As we are about to begin an exciting new year of cinema in 2026, we say goodbye to 2025 with our AW team's favorite films of the year. Instead of having everyone on one call together, the show is split up into two episodes this year, each covering a selection of the nine films the team loved the most. On this first installment of the end of the year show, the movies discussed were Sinners (Mark), Sorry, Baby (Tyler), The Secret Agent (Karen), Resurrection (Dan), and Hamnet (Erik). In each segment, each person talks about why they selected the film as their favorite of the year, as well as an in-depth discussion over the film. At the end, the team gave honorable mentions for other films that they loved that included One Battle After Another, Weapons, Sentimental Value, Train Dreams, Pillion, The Naked Gun, The History of Sound, F1, and many more.

Our next guest needs no introduction. He's one of my all time favorite composers and today we chat about his score for Hamnet, On The Nature Of Daylight, and SRM sounds among other topics! And the composer is... Max Richter Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Composer Max Richter joins guest host Jon Burlingame to discuss his luminous, emotionally rich score for “Hamnet,” the new film from director Chloé Zhao. In their conversation, Richter shares how early musical sketches shaped the production, how he blended period instruments with processed textures, and how the film's psychological and natural landscapes guided his approach. And as Richter explains, Elizabethan-era music became a key creative touchstone for capturing the film's folkloric sensibility.“Elizabethan music is one of my great passions, really. It's an amazing moment in English music history where you have this community of composers writing just extraordinary things, both instrumental and chorally. It was a wonderful opportunity for me to go back and connect to that material… Which evoked what [director] Chloé [Zhao] called the witchy sensibility of the sort of folkloristic… maybe dark fairytale quality of the relationship with nature and the connection between human beings and nature.”—Max Richter, Composer, “Hamnet”Be sure to check out “Hamnet,” now playing in theaters in Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos®, where available.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode on YouTube.Learn more about the Dolby Creator Lab and check out Dolby.com.

The end is here! Well, the end of season 5 at least. That's right, after over twelve months the season is finally over (making it, I think, the longest season of The Film Scorer yet), and what better wait to celebrate than to chat with Max Richter? Max's (Ad Astra, The Leftovers) latest score is for the incredible historical drama Hamnet, a fictionalized account of the death of William Shakespeare and his wife Agnes's son Hamnet and how it inspired the creation of Hamlet. Unsurprisingly, we spend most of our conversation on Hamnet, but despite the quick interview we manage to cover a lot of other ground too, such as the use of "On the Nature of Daylight" over the years, the troubled production of Ad Astra, and how a musician's intent goes only so far once their music reaches an audience. Max's score for Hamnet is forthcoming (though having heard an advance version, I can vouch that it's great) and the rest of his music is available on all major platforms. You can find out more about Max on his website. In addition to Hamnet's pending release, Max just announced some 2026 tour dates.
In the spring of 1990, families across Britain began reporting visits from strangers claiming to be social workers. They spoke with authority, carried clipboards, even asked to photograph or examine children — and then vanished. Police launched Operation Childcare, a nationwide manhunt involving more than twenty forces, but no arrests were ever made. Were these criminals, insiders, or the product of a moral panic born from fear and mistrust? Join John Williamson by the fireside as we unravel one of the strangest unsolved mysteries of late-20th-century Britain — a story where rumor met authority, and where fear itself became the evidence.
Max Richter grew up in Stuttgart, Germany, surrounded by cameras—his father was a photographer with a Leica who ran an advertising business. After studying engineering and business, Max found himself restless in corporate life, eventually making his way to Shenzhen, China, where he met a campus legend named JK who had borrowed $2,000 from his father to start a camera company. What happened next was a decade-long journey of near-bankruptcy, pivotal pivots, and ultimately building Insta360 into a company that challenged GoPro and partnered with the very camera brand that filled Max's childhood home. Today, Max serves as a co-founder of Insta360, a company that's redefined how millions of people capture and share their lives. In this episode, you'll discover: The "dark year" of 2017 when Insta360 had over 100 employees, was running out of cash, and Samsung had just entered their market—and the unexpected user behavior that saved the company Why the moment you're closest to giving up is often the exact moment you need to push through, and how this principle turned a struggling startup into a company that makes $30+ million annually The career advice Max wishes he'd known at 25 about the dangers of overthinking and why "just starting" beats perfect planning every single time How immersing yourself in uncomfortable, foreign environments shapes you into a more open-minded person—and why Max believes traveling early is one of the most underrated career accelerators The sacrifices nobody talks about when building a global company, and why finding the intersection of passion, profit, and societal impact matters more than any single factor alone
