Wayfaring: Photography in Taiwan, 1950s–1980s (Australian Centre on China in the World, 2025) explores four transformative decades of photography in Taiwan, tracing its evolution amid the island's emergence from Japanese colonialism and integration into Nationalist China, largely under martial law (1949–87). Through a dozen richly illustrated essays and interviews, the book bridges the gap between vigorous Chinese-language scholarship on photography in Taiwan and its limited representation in English. Essays on photographers in the 1950s–60s, including Long Chin-San (Lang Jingshan) (1892-1995), Deng Nan-Guang (1907-1971), Chang Chao-Tang (1943-2024), Liu An-Ming (1928-2022), Hwang Pai-Chi (b. 1931), Hsu Yuan-Fu (1932-2018) and Tsai Hui-Feng (1928-2005), reveal photography's pivotal role in documenting ‘local' culture and shaping cultural identity, while challenging ideas of ‘amateur' and ‘realist' practices and recognising the importance of transnational connections. Meanwhile, essays on Hsu Jen-Shiu (b.1946), Lin Bo-Liang (b. 1952), Kao Chung-Li (b. 1958), Lien Hui-Ling (b. 1961) and Hou Tsung-Hui (b. 1960), along with interviews sharing the firsthand experiences of Liu Chen-Hsiang (b.1963), Lulu Shur-tzy Hou (1962-2023) and Yao Jui-Chung (b.1969), highlight the experience of photography in 1970s–80s Taiwan, as both witness and agent of social transformation, addressing issues such as environmental protection, mental health and gender politics, as well as being a crucial vehicle for the transdisciplinary nature of contemporary art, theatre, cinema and performance in Taiwan at that time. Chen Shuxia is a historian and curator of Chinese art. Her research concerns art collectives, diasporic artistic practice, and reciprocal relations between people and objects. Her most recent books include Wayfaring: Photography in Taiwan, 1950s–1980s (2025), Chinese Toggles: Culture in Miniature (2024) and A Home for Photography Learning: the Friday Salon, 1977-1980 (2024).

G'day benchers,  Over the weekend of June 13 & 14 I attended the World Miniature Hobby Show in Penang Malaysia.  Managed to talk to a few people and hope you enjoy the report.  

The airbrush is one of the most talked-about tools in miniature painting, but do you really need one? In this episode, we take a closer look at some of the biggest myths, misconceptions and frustrations surrounding airbrushing. From whether it's worth the investment to when it can genuinely improve your painting, we break down the reality of using an airbrush for Warhammer miniatures and tabletop armies.Whether you're thinking about buying your first airbrush or wondering if you're getting the most out of the one you already own, this episode is packed with practical advice and hobby insights.In Episode 136 of Paint Perspective, Paul and James discuss everything airbrush, from proper use to maintenance and whether everyone should have one despite their skill levels.Expect discussions on:

"I have been working on some piano miniatures inspired by Kurtág's Játékok, Bartok's Mikrokosmos and technical exercises such a A Dozen a Day. This piece fits into that body of work. "I edited and manipulated a short section of the bells so that it was far more intense than the original and put some slow, relaxed arpeggios and chords beneath that. I inverted that idea in the second part to include the recording of people inside the church but added faster, more intense arpeggios."Saint Sulpice, Paris reimagined by Simon Belshaw.

In this episode of Between The Lines, Chelle and Leanne welcome Kate Solly back to the podcast to chat about her latest cosy crime novel, The Paradise Heights Miniature Railway Bust Up. Kate's books have become beloved for their blend of mystery, humour, community chaos and deeply relatable motherhood moments — and this latest instalment is no exception. This time, amateur sleuth Fleck Parker finds herself investigating strange goings-on at the local miniature railway, where expensive equipment has mysteriously disappeared. Between feeding a hungry baby, managing a cranky toddler, surviving school drop-offs and protecting her Wordle streak, Fleck somehow also finds time to investigate crime. Meanwhile, her best friend Trixie is dealing with mounting volunteer drama at the local craft shop, proving once again that small-town community groups can be just as chaotic as any murder scene. In our conversation with Kate, we discuss: Why cosy crime readers love quirky community settings Balancing humour with genuine mystery and darker themes Writing motherhood in a realistic, funny and relatable way The inspiration behind Fleck Parker's chaotic but lovable character Crafting communities, miniature railways and small-town dynamics Why amateur sleuths make such compelling protagonists As always, Kate brings warmth and humour to the conversation, and we found ourselves laughing through much of the episode. If you love cosy mysteries filled with heart, chaos, friendship and community drama, this episode — and this book — are such a fun time. About the Book The Paradise Heights Miniature Railway Bust Up is a cosy Australian mystery following amateur sleuth Fleck Parker as she investigates theft and suspicious behaviour at the local miniature railway. As Fleck juggles parenting chaos, community drama and mounting clues, she discovers that beneath the cheerful surface of Paradise Heights lies something far more sinister than anyone expected. About the Author Kate Solly is a writer, mother of six and author of Tuesday Evenings With the Copeton Craft Resistance and The Paradise Heights Craft Store Stitch-Up. Known for blending humour, heart and mystery, Kate writes cosy crime novels grounded in relatable family life, quirky communities and plenty of crafting chaos. Join Our Book-Loving Community Chelle and Leanne created Between The Lines because they love books and great conversations — and wanted to share both with you.

In this episode of d6 minutes, the companion podcast to Dice Over Everything, we talk about what we've been doing hobby-wise, painting stamps, and what Dream Space Marine model would convince us to paint one (outside of playing it painted).

Miniature human brains grown in a Saskatoon lab are upending the way researchers see neurology and immunology. Neuroscientist Dr. Tyler Wenzel is using brain organoids to challenge decades of rodent-based research, charting a new course for precision medicine.   As a high school biology teacher, Wenzel's students learned how hearts pump blood and lungs move air. But apart from neurological electrical activity, neither Wenzel nor the textbooks had many clear answers about the brain.   During his graduate studies, Wenzel realized the same experimental question tended to produce opposite results for mice and humans. The key difference, he found, lay in how each species' responded to toxins and injury,  leaving him skeptical of neurological therapies tested on rodents. Now an assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Saskatchewan, Wenzel focuses on youth degenerative brain disease and the limits of traditional research models.   He grows human brain organoids — "mini brains" — from pluripotent stem cells derived from sources like blood or skin. Measuring two millimetres apiece, those organoids resemble tiny blobs of chewing gum. "We will turn [cells from a patient] into pluripotent stem cells, and we will make their mini brain, and because it has their genetic information, we get a brain that has their pathology," Wenzel said.  "If you do that same mutation, often in a mouse, the pathology won't appear. So it allows us to actually get a pathology we can actually study," he said.   When Wenzel was first hired at the University of Saskatchewan in 2024, the budget-conscious researcher built his lab on a shoestring, picking up secondhand centrifuges, balances, fridges and freezers from industrial start-ups. That move saved him time, and hundreds of thousands of dollars.  "All the money that we started off with, it is literally going to just the research team and directly to the research," Wenzel said, crediting NSERC and SHRF for their support. "I am so grateful."   Today, Wenzel studies childhood cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), a rare degenerative brain disease that strikes children, and is fatal when left untreated. His organoids may provide proof of concept for new ways to target the brain and nervous system, without the need for radiation, chemotherapy, and lifelong immunosuppresant drugs currently required for hematopoietic stem cell transplants.  "Chemotherapy and irradiation makes holes throughout your whole body. So we can do it in just your brain, just your spinal cord, and then we can inject the immune cells specifically into those locations," Wenzel said. "That eliminates many of the things that make chemotherapy uncomfortable, many of the things that make any sort of stem cell transplant uncomfortable."   This spring, Canada's Stem Cell Network singled out Wenzel's work with a Rising Star Award, saying his work demonstrates "leadership, creativity and potential for major impact". If his method shows promise in treating ALD, Wenzel's approach could pave the way for more targeted, effective and far less invasive treatments for a range of degenerative brain diseases.

In this powerful class study through Luke 15, we take a deep dive into Jesus' most beloved parables—the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son—and discover how they all point to the heart of the Gospel. More than just stories about repentance, these parables reveal a God who actively seeks the lost, restores the broken, and lovingly meets people exactly where they are.This lesson explores not only the younger son who wandered away, but also the older brother who stayed close physically while remaining distant in heart. Through practical application and rich insight into the cultural background of the text, this class challenges us to ask: Are we reflecting the heart of the Father toward those who are lost?At its core, Luke 15 reminds us of one simple truth: God wants you.

If you've been fortunate to hold a newborn, you know what it's like to be thunderstruck by the delicate features. Everything is miniature.And then the eyes open. You're in love.Jeremiah 1:5 says, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.”A baby is a blessing and a gift from the Lord. All life is precious; it doesn't matter if the parents are famous or completely obscure. In that warm bundle is a whole lifetime waiting to unfold. Will he be adventurous? Will she run the country?Man is capable of much, but creating life as God creates will always remain outside the borders. Only a great and all-powerful God could give us such a beautiful life, and He makes each one of us truly unique.It is an inescapable fact that a human being, separate from everyone else in terms of physicality and emotions, becomes fully formed in its mother's womb. This is perhaps the greatest miracle in all the universe, and one deserving of our awe and respect.Let's pray.Lord, you form us in the womb, and walk with us each step of the way through life. Thank you for your mercies and grace that you freely give each of us. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

On this week's show, Dana, Steve, and Dan Kois get into cultural topics of various scales. First, they examine The Christophers, the latest film from Steven Soderbergh. The small scale two-hander starring Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel about an aging artist and an upstart forger is intentionally intimate, but is it too slight? They discuss.Next, they pick up their cultural magnifying glasses to peep at The Miniature Wife, the new marital comedy series starring Matthew Macfadyen and Elizabeth Banks about a scientist who accidentally aims his shrink ray on his wife. Is this diminutive premise too small for its multiple episode execution? They discuss. Finally, they take up the small but mighty objects apparently floating at the bottom of many an it girl's purse: cigarettes. They respond to a recent piece in the Ankler “Cigarettes Get a Sequel: Hollywood's ‘Cool' Bad Habit Is Back.”In an exclusive bonus episode for Slate Plus subscribers, the panel gazes at the vast expanse of space and talks about Artemis II's mission to the far side of the moon. EndorsementsDan: The novel Possession by A.S. Byatt.Steve: The essay in New York Review of Books “From the Rooftops of Tehran,” an anonymous first person account of life under fire from American and Israeli bombs.Dana: The radio show Shocking Blue on New York's WFUV from the DJ Delphine Blue— if you miss it on Saturday nights 8pm-11pm when it airs, check out at WFUV's archives to listen to episodes after broadcast.--Email us your thoughts at culturefest@slate.com.

Euphoria makes its long-awaited return to our screens this week, after a four year hiatus. But can it possibly meet Boyd's lofty expectations when it lands on Sky/HBO Max (47:06)? And speaking of Sky, Matthew Macfadyen and Elizabeth Banks' size-shifting comedy The Miniature Wife also lands on that platform (1:01:04), and hit comedy Big Mood returns for another run on Channel 4 (1:11:05). Plus, we bust out our (metaphorical) turntables to thrash out our favourite TV needle drops, there's a lot of unnecessary watermark chat, and you're all invited to Steph's birthday party. Except James.Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide.

It's almost always the way: the thing you're most looking forward too almost never lives up to what you had wanted. Unfortunately for Dan, three of the shows he was most excited by this year all failed to deliver the goods.Dan reviews new TV dramas The Testaments (Hulu), The Audacity (AMC in the US / SBS On Demand in Australia), and The Miniature Wife (Peacock in the US / Stan in Australia).Simon takes a trip to the cinema and reviews a foreign film he says is among the best of the year: The President's Cake.

Film and television reviewer James Croot details the sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, The Testaments (Disney+), set fifteen years after the original. 

In this episode we set the Elevator of History back to 1835 where we witness the ;'penny paperss' papers sold for one cent instead of six that featured stories people WANTED to read, rather than news by and for a political party.  These papers brought us separate sections on news, finance, sports and featured on the scene reporting and lurid true crime details.  But it was the New York Sun that launched into a six day report of what a famous mathematician, chemist and learned individual was looking at the moon through a legendary telescope and reporting the discovery of the most amazing things including:  albino moon-bison, miniature zebras, one horned goats, unicorns and the fascinating bat people of the moon who dwelt in massive temples carved from giant rubies.  The public was fascinated by this series of articles until the report, six days later that the telescope had caught a stray sunbeam, magnified it's intensity and set the observatory alight causing it to burn to the ground.  In the days and weeks that followed it slowly came out that none of this was true, however, the Sun never printed a retraction and their readership had grown significantly despite the scandal, most new readers stayed.  We discuss all this, the Blue Fugates, touch on Orson Welles War of the Worlds  and discuss Terry Gilliam's the Adventures of Baron Munchausen  in this it can't get weirder than this episode of the Family Plot Podcast!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

A select few Native American artists choose to express their cultural and creative passions in miniature. An exhibition starting this month at the National Museum of Toys and Miniatures celebrates those artists who make distinctive pottery, baskets, and carvings on a decidedly downsized scale. The top Indigenous beaders, potters, painters, and weavers are headed to the Heard Museum in Phoenix, Ariz. for that institution's 68th annual Indian Art Fair and Market. The Heard welcomes more than 600 artists from all over the world for what has become one of the must-go events for both artists and collectors. We'll hear from organizers and artists from both of these events.
