Notes and time-codes by Hetty Blades: If you would like access to the audio described version of 'As Within So Without' please contact Hetty Blades: hetty.blades@coventry.ac.uk (03:10) Moving Online is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council [grant number AH/W01002X/1]. https://movingonline.coventry.domains/The partners are One Dance UK https://www.onedanceuk.org/ and Sadler's Wells https://www.sadlerswells.com/ (05:37) These kinds of questions are explored in a branch of philosophy called ‘ontology'. There has been a lot written about dance ontology. For example, Anna Pakes's book Choreography Invisible (2020). https://global.oup.com/academic/product/choreography-invisible-9780199988228?lang=en&cc=us This page includes a blog by Hetty Blades (in 3 parts) that explores the overlap between ontology and ownership and includes references to more texts in both areas: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ (06:27) For more about the Centre for Dance Research (C-DaRE) at Coventry University, please see here:https://www.coventry.ac.uk/research/areas-of-research/centre-for-dance-research/ (15:00) For more information about some of the existing work in the areas of dance and copyright, the circulation of dance through social norms and the overlap of copyright and philosophy, please see ‘ontology and ownership' (in 3 parts) on this page: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/outputs-3/ and the reference list: https://movingonline.coventry.domains/references/ (15:20) See Bench (2020) and Boffone (2021) re the role of credit within dance communities. Bench: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Boffone: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (23:19) This blog post includes reference to some of the writing that explores the implications of the distinction in US copyright law between ‘choreographic works' and ‘social dances and simple routes': https://movingonline.coventry.domains/ontology-and-ownership-part-three/ (23:57) The nature of ‘dance works' is explored by Pakes in Choreography Invisible (2020): https://academic.oup.com/book/36935 (24:33) Rather than ‘repeatable', the work needs to be “capable of being performed” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.') : https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (26:44) Writing in 2015, Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon point out that since 1911 there have been three cases in the UK “where dance has been judicially considered” (Whatley, Waelde, Brown and Harmon, 2015: 70, ‘Validation and virtuosity: Perspectives on difference and authorship/control in dance.'): https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/chor.6.1.59_1 (30:48) Thank you to Julie C. Van Camp whose work on dance, copyright and philosophy has been very important and who made a similar point about prohibitive costs and limited case law during a Q and A at the American Society of Aesthetics Eastern meeting in 2024 (31:14) For more on the possible commercial benefits of copyright exploitation, see Pavis, Waelde and Whatley (2017) ‘Who can profit from dance?: An exploration of copyright ownership': https://www.euppublishing.com/doi/10.3366/drs.2017.0185 (53:55) Harmony Bench's book Perpetual Motion (2020) is available here: https://dhjhkxawhe8q4.cloudfront.net/minup-wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/16153547/Bench_9781452962481.pdf Trevor Boffone's Renegades (2021) also discusses the issues that can arise when dance moves from one community into another context: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/renegades-9780197577684?cc=us&lang=en& (01:16:00) You can find more about Charlotte Waelde's work here: https://pureportal.coventry.ac.uk/en/persons/charlotte-waelde/publications/ The Space's Digital Rights Toolkit is a helpful resource regarding rights when sharing online: https://www.thespace.org/resource/the-spaces-digital-rights-toolkit/ #brookemilliner #aswithinsowithout #hettyblades #dance #copyright #podcast #coventryuniversity #lukelentes #thecapsule #thecapsuleldn

This is the third Australian Article Club. It covers the following article: Nyberg, G., Backman, E., & Tinning, R. (2022). Moving online in physical education teacher education. Sport, Education and Society, 29(3), 358–370. https://doi.org/10.1080/13573322.2022.2142776   In this article the authors discuss the challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic created for preservice teachers' knowledge in and about movement and their developing movement capability in PETE in a Swedish University. In a way, covid potentially accelerated the process of a Physical Education degree transitioning to fully online. We discuss why this continues in some universities and the factors that contribute to it. We also discuss some of the effects we think it is having on graduate teachers and ultimately the effect it may have on students – all because the PE community and others do not value the 3 dimensions of Arnold's model equally. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pwrhpe/support

With over 12K retail locations closing in 2020, leaving 159M square feet of retail space unoccupied, many might be thinking that the future of brick and mortar retail locations is permanently on the decline. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, retailers opened more stores than they closed in 2021, “with a nearly 40 percent increase in year-over-year store opening announcements” (AZ Big Media). Retail Refined host Melissa Gonzalez, spoke withBrent Paulsen, Managing Director and Head of Retail at UNTUCKit about the company's brick and mortar store strategy, the future of retail, and how data analytics can be utilized to drive decisions and increase profitability.Paulsen has spent 30 years working in retail store operations for multiple companies including Bloomingdales, Home Depot, Sears, Montgomery Ward, and Lord & Taylor. His breadth of experience in brick-and-mortar operations made him a perfect fit to join UNTUCKit in 2015 when the company was looking to expand its store presence. At the time, the company had two locations. Since joining the company, Paulsen has been part of the company's rapid growth leading to the addition of 86 stores in the U.S., Canada, and the UK as of June 2022.For those who are not familiar with the brand, UNTUCKit is casual apparel that is designed to be worn at work with the ability to successfully transition to life after the workday is done. “Our tag line, ‘Shirts Designed to be Worn Untucked,' is how we differentiate ourselves from other retailers… our job is to really get people into a product that fits them. A shirt that is designed to fit well that is not a custom product is our market niche,” said Paulson.In discussing the company's brick and mortar strategy, Paulson noted that “we are definitely believers that the role of a store is important to a brand. So UNTUCKit was initially a direct-to-consumer brand, DTC brand, we positioned our first store after opening a popup in New York in the Fall of 2015. The customer response to being able to see and feel and touch and try on our product was exceptional.”Online sales data helped determine where to open stores based on where the product was already selling well. This helped build credibility for the brand while increasing online and in-person sales. And it helps defray the costs of traditional advertising such as TV, radio, and social media – the cost of introducing a customer to the brand through a physical store can be very cost-effective compared to other advertising methods.

Grad Programs Moving Online Curt and Katie chat about the quick move to online learning when the pandemic hit. We talk about the challenges with virtual platforms – what has worked and what has not. We look at the decisions related to starting or continuing therapist education at this time. We also talk about the opportunities that have been gained and ideas for students and professors on how to more effectively approach online graduate programs. It’s time to reimagine therapy and what it means to be a therapist. To support you as a whole person and a therapist, your hosts, Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy talk about how to approach the role of therapist in the modern age. In this episode we talk about: Graduate programs for therapists moving online during the pandemic The education one applied for is vastly different from what you’re getting right now The rapid shift to online education and lack of deliberate choices to shift how to teach Synchronous and asynchronous elements of education The requirement for faculty to learn and utilize technology effectively A lack of interaction due to polite students keeping their mics off The spoke and wheel conversations that impact how learning happens The lack of guidance on how to create truly effective online education Navigating time on screens Role plays translating into learning telehealth, rather than in-person therapy The lack of interaction with the material, more passive learning Developing clinical efficacy for telehealth The uncertainty of the efficacy of clinical work in the newer space of telehealth The impact on discussions social justice, racial and cultural identity, due to the ability to opt out of the conversation in online education The importance of figuring out how people learn and how it applies to the online space Should people delay or pause education? What the impacts on the workforce might be Opportunities within the online learning space, especially when the technology is well used Theoretical versus practical base The need to have more deliberate and direct conversations to create connections that may have happened organically The adjustments and planning that may improve the situation Different factors that impact each student’s and each professor’s ability to engage Looking at expectations, support, and needed infrastructure What students can do to better access education during this time Developing personal relationships with professors Putting together options to increase connection and interaction with peers Seeking career mentorship and synchronous conversations Moving from venting and commiserating to advocacy within the system The ability to make changes, be nimble, and put forward a collective voice Our Generous Sponsors: CPH & Associates CPH & Associates is an insurance company that specializes in professional liability insurance for mental health professionals.

Schools moving online - Dr Amy Graham explains about schools going online because of the coronavirus, the digital divide and how will this affect children in remote areas.

The crew continues to struggle with stay at home orders and balancing it with their therapy.   Michael has moved his private practice a teletherapy setting and he continues to identify ways to improve his therapy delivery.   Michelle is adjusting and facing the challenge of working from home while her husband works from home as well and having a young child at home.  Michelle's clinic remains closed but is making plans to open shortly.  Matt continues to change the way he is presenting therapy to his students from the school district and still is seeing elderly patients in the home setting.  On today's show we are talking the recent updates on the FDA and sterilization of masks, a study on paper versus cloth masks, looking at special education and kids falling through the cracks, and telepractice success stories.  Hours after recording this show, Battelle was approved to use the serialization process for masks.  On this week's Informed SLP update, they look at the research behind hearing aides and young children.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at what ASHA is doing for us during this time of pandemic.    The Discord is up and ready for people to interact with the crew 24/7.   SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, like front line workers and SLPs who are working with out Covid-19 positive patients.        SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS.  This week's due process comes from the crew as they hate the way people use racial terms to name the current Covid-19.       Article #1: A recent study shows that the use of cloth masks have a higher infection rate than the surgical masks.  Also Ohio based Battelle has identified a way to sanitize N95 masks.  At the time of recording, they were awaiting FDA approval to disinfect up to 160,000 masks per day.  Hours after recording, the FDA gave them the approval needed.    Article #2: As we move education online, the role of the special education teacher and related staff becomes more difficult.  Recent articles look at the risk our students face of falling through the cracks of education.    Interview: Ayelet Marinovich is an SLP and the host of the Learn with Less Podcast.  On her show and in her books she addresses the challenges and realities of early parenthood, and the information you need to know about early childhood.   The Informed SLP: Keeping anything on a toddler that the toddler doesn't want there is one of life's great challenges. Hats, sunglasses, pants… the struggle is real. When you add hearing aids to that mix you'd better put on a hard hat because there may be things flying at your head. So if you work with toddlers who are Deaf/Hard-of-Hearing (DHH), you are 100% going to get parents coming in saying that they have the hearing aids, but the toddler just will not wear them.   ASHA Spotlight: COVID-19 has created many challenges to our daily lives. One of the ways ASHA can help you during this difficult time is to offer you free continuing education.  ----more---- Contact Email: speechsciencepodcast@gmail.com Voicemail: (614) 681-1798 Discord: https://discord.gg/3Tm5jrS   New Episode and Interact here: www.speechsciencepodcast.com podcast.speechsciencepodcast.com   Support Patreon – https://www.patreon.com/speechsciencepodcast   Rate and Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/speechscience-org-podcast/id1224862476?fbclid=IwAR3QRzd5K4J-eS2SUGBK1CyIUvoDrhu8Gr4SqskNkCDVUJyk5It3sa26k3Y&ign-mpt=uo%3D8&mt=2   Credits Intro Music: Please Listen Carefully by Jahzzar is licensed under a Attribution-ShareAlike License.

Many of us have created incredible online networks through a variety of platforms like LinkedIn and beBee. But, most have never met face-to-face with their followers but feel an incredible camaraderie and warmth toward each other. Sarah Elkins took this the next level after wondering how to leverage her incredible online professional network to improve her real life, face-to-face business, and community. She had a vision of a conference that would join up the dots and physically connect with her virtual connections.  A conference with no keynotes, no crowded, awkward "networking" events where you've either painfully introduced around, or observing the small cliques of people who already know each other. She wanted to create a professional development that had not been seen before. We have all been to many conferences. You know the breaks between sessions, the after-hours conversations in the lobby or the bar when you get to know the speakers and participants? You know those times when, outside the meeting rooms, you learn more from the others than you did from any of the formal sessions? Sarah Elkins decided to take a risk and create No Longer Virtual (NLV). A conference that leverages those side-conversations and makes them the foundation of your NLV experience. Guest Info No Longer Virtual - http://elkinsconsulting.com/no-longer-virtual-connect-f2f/ @sarahelkins     

In 2015, the food market in Belarus rapidly developed, changing from traditional brick and mortar stores to online retailing. Payment cards are being widely used in the country, and with cards comes the ease of online payments. Increasing penetration of mobile internet subscriptions also paved the way for this development. So far, Euroopt is the only company in Belarus providing internet food retail services, but the company has expanded into Russia where loyalty to Belarusian food products is historic. Euroopt has made a major breakthrough for other companies looking to expand in online food retail.

In the past five years, restaurants have moved into the online space faster than originally expected due to technological saturation. Food delivery is growing exponentially and restaurants that wouldn’t normally offer delivery options can now make use of independent contractors who own their own vehicles. There are even restaurants opening with no physical storefront - the menu appears online only with food being ordered via an app or website and delivered directly to the consumer. In developed countries, having food prepared for consumers immediately is no longer for fast food chains, and we’ll see more of these online ventures moving forward.

This week we are taking a look at the continuing growth of online literary magazines and what it offers the young, the loyal and the down and out. We speak with those behind a mysterious new literary project devoted to TV called the Channelling and we meet Mark Mordue, who was tired of bloodless travel writing and devoted his issue of an online magazine to bringing it back to life. We also revisit an interview from earlier this year with Ivor Indyk about the end of his magazine HEAT and the possibility of its online rebirth.
