Hohoho! Zu Weihnachten bringen wir einen Sack prall gefüllt mit Kontroversen! Seien es Rosinen, Brotgewürz, Minze oder Koriander. Seien es „KI“-Browser, die Nutzung von generativer AI für Concept Art oder Vibe Coding. Man kann auch kontrovers diskutieren, ob das überhaupt Kontroversen sind! Ein paar Nicht-Kontroversen haben wir auch, Weihnachten soll ja schließlich positiv begangen werden: Weltweit wurde zum ersten Mal mit Solar und Wind mehr Energie produziert als mit Kohle, eine wundervolle Nachricht! Und die Association for Computing Machinery stellt ab Januar auf Open Access um, das heißt du, ich, wir alle können ohne Einschränkungen auf alle Veröffentlichungen, Artikel, Papers etc. zugreifen und sie herunterladen. Viel Spaß mit Folge 287 und entspannte Feiertage! (Anm. d. Red.: In einer früheren Fassung wurde nicht vor Minze gewarnt, wir bitten dies zu entschuldigen.)

PURANA Media is an annual, peer-reviewed, open access journal focused on modes of cultural production encompassed by the term purāṇa (a Sanskrit word designating things 'ancient' or 'primordial'). Populated by deities, sages, and a host of other more-than-human agents, the purāṇic past has been disseminated through a wide range of media and forms of embodied knowledge. As an authoritative discourse, purāṇa has been integral to the shaping of history and cultural memory in early South and Southeast Asia. In the contemporary world this discourse continues to (re)create the past as a social, political, and affective force. The journal approaches purāṇa as a way of worldmaking that uses memories of a distant past to meaningfully anchor the relative present and envision a future possible. PURANA Media adopts a broad methodological and regional scope. The journal integrates scholarship on primary historical sources (textual, visual, and material) and their contexts, critical reflections on heritage-making and museum studies, as well as contributions in art, design, photography, and other media.

For decades, the field of scholarship that studies the law and practice of international organisations -also known as 'international institutional law'- has been marked by an intellectual quietism. Most of the scholarship tends to focus narrowly on providing 'legal' answers to 'legal' questions. For that reason, perspectives rarely engage with the insights of critical traditions of legal thought (for instance, feminist, postcolonial, or political economy-oriented perspectives) or with interdisciplinary contributions produced outside the field. Ways of Seeing International Organisations: New Perspectives for International Institutional Law (Cambridge UP, 2025) edited by Dr. Negar Mansouri & Dr. Daniel R. Quiroga-Villamarín challenges the narrow gaze of the field by bringing together authors across multiple disciplines to reflect on the need for 'new' perspectives in international institutional law. Highlighting the limits of mainstream approaches, the authors instead interrogate international organisations as pivots in processes of world-making. To achieve this, the volume is organised around four fundamental themes: expertise; structure; performance; and capital. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

I talked to Dr. Samuel Moore about his recent book, Publishing Beyond the Market: Open Access, Care, and the Commons, (U Michigan Press, 2025) Samuel Moore is the Scholarly Communication Specialist at Cambridge University Libraries, Associate Lecturer at Cambridge Digital Humanities, and College Research Associate at King's College, Cambridge. In his book, Sam argues that the move to open access should focus less on the free accessibility of research outputs and more on who controls the publications and infrastructures for scholarly communication. By deploying theoretical literature on science and technology studies, care ethics, and the commons, the book critically interrogates open access and reimagines a more ethical future for researcher-led publishing. A case study of Plan S – the multi-funder European policy for open access publishing – explores its tendency to rehearse all the failures of commercialisation. Through critical engagement with the open access landscape, the book reveals the shortcomings of market-centric and policy-based approaches to open access book and journal publishing, particularly their tendency to reinforce conservatism, commercialism, and private control of publishing. Going forward, the book explores the importance of collectivity and democratic governance within the transition to open access publishing. It suggests that developing a commons-based, scholar-led publishing landscape through a series of presses that are each managed by working academics could offer a productive counterpoint to marketised systems of open access and subscription publishing. In weaving themselves together in order to "scale small" these publishing initiatives would act as a counter-hegemonic project based on mutual reliance and care. By illustrating how these projects build toward a commons-based publishing future, and how they may complement other approaches to publishing within university presses and libraries, the book culminates in an argument for the infrastructures, policies, and forms of governance needed to nurture such a collective vision. Sam's book, which I am glad to say is available as an open-access ebook alongside the paperback, is the subject of our conversation.

Hanwook Yoo, Xuechun Zhou, and Beth Phillips presents the results of a research study that showcases the importance of assessing academic readiness prior to admission to a nursing program. This article is OPEN ACCESS so read and share widely.

Dr. Vera Rödel ist Juristin mit einem Master in Medizin und Gründerin von Prof. Valmed, der ersten generativen KI-Medizinprodukt der Klasse IIb in Europa. Gemeinsam mit dem Neurologen Prof. Heinz Wiendl entwickelt sie KI-Lösungen, die klinische Entscheidungsprozesse sicher, valide und datenschutzkonform unterstützen. Ihre seltene Kombination aus juristischem und medizinischer Fachwissen und technischer Expertise macht Dr. Vera Rödel zu einer zentralen Gestalterin der medizinischen KI-Zukunft. Ihr Ziel ist es, eine verlässliche Alternative zu unregulierter „Shadow AI“ zu schaffen – mit einem System, das sich streng an Leitlinien orientiert und medizinische Erkenntnisse nachvollziehbar abbildet. Zertifizierte KI für die Medizin Gleich zu Beginn erklärt Dr. Vera Rödel, warum sie den anspruchsvollen Weg der Zertifizierung als Klasse IIb-Medizinprodukt gewählt hat. Für sie war klar, dass nur diese höhere Klassifizierung genügend Spielraum bietet, um medizinische Datenbanken fortlaufend aktualisieren zu dürfen und gleichzeitig die Qualität der Entscheidungsunterstützung abzusichern. Während viele KI-Tools bewusst geringere regulatorische Anforderungen wählen, setzt Prof. Valmed auf maximale Transparenz und medizinische Validität. Damit reagiert Dr. Vera Rödel auf den zunehmenden Einsatz von KI im klinischen Alltag, der bisher meist unkontrolliert und datenschutzrechtlich bedenklich stattfindet. KI wird unverzichtbar im Klinikalltag Im Gespräch zeigt sich, wie stark das Gesundheitswesen bereits jetzt auf KI zurückgreift. Dr. Vera Rödel beschreibt, dass viele Medizinerinnen und Mediziner ChatGPT oder ähnliche Modelle auf privaten Geräten nutzen, weil die Zeit im Alltag fehlt, komplexe Leitlinien nachzuschlagen. Genau hier sieht sie die dringende Notwendigkeit einer regulierten, sicheren und medizinisch geprüften Alternative. Für sie ist klar: KI darf im klinischen Umfeld nicht dem Zufall überlassen werden. Sie muss Ärztinnen und Ärzte entlasten, ihnen aber gleichzeitig die Sicherheit geben, dass jede Empfehlung auf valider Evidenz beruht. Wie Prof. Valmed funktioniert Die Oberfläche des Tools orientiert sich bewusst an modernen Sprachmodellen. Anwenderinnen und Anwender können Fragen so formulieren, wie sie es im Gespräch mit Kolleginnen oder Kollegen tun würden. Die KI antwortet ausschließlich auf Basis geprüfter Daten, zeigt Quellen an und verweist auf die zugrunde liegenden Leitlinien. Dr. Vera Rödel hebt hervor, dass das System lieber bewusst keine Antwort gibt, als falsche Inhalte zu generieren. Zudem arbeitet Prof. Valmed ohne personenbezogene Daten, was die Nutzung in sensiblen klinischen Umgebungen erleichtert. Das Ergebnis ist ein vertrautes, intuitives Interface, das dennoch strenge medizinische Standards erfüllt. Integration in klinische Systeme Besonders wirkungsvoll wird Prof. Valmed, wenn es direkt in bestehende KIS-Systeme integriert ist. Dr. Vera Rödel beschreibt, wie sich dadurch der Workflow spürbar verändert: Die KI erscheint genau dort, wo Entscheidungen getroffen werden, und liefert Vorschläge, ohne dass zusätzliche Fenster oder Programme geöffnet werden müssen. Diese Integration sorgt für Akzeptanz und führt dazu, dass medizinische Teams das Tool selbstverständlich in den Alltag übernehmen. Kooperationen wie jene mit Medatixx zeigen, wie stark die Nachfrage nach eingebetteten KI-Lösungen wächst. Die medizinische Datenbasis Ein wesentlicher Erfolgsfaktor des Systems ist die umfassende Datenbasis. Prof. Valmed verarbeitet rund 2,5 Millionen medizinische Dokumente, darunter Leitlinien, PubMed-Artikel im Open Access, Cochrane Reviews und EMA-Dokumente. Auch internationale Richtlinien, etwa aus Italien, sind eingebunden. Dr. Vera Rödel betont, dass diese Daten laufend aktualisiert werden und eine außergewöhnliche Breite medizinischer Sachverhalte abbilden. Das ermöglicht sichere Entscheidungen selbst bei seltenen Erkrankungen. Nutzen im Alltag Besonders eindrücklich beschreibt Dr. Vera Rödel das Feedback aus der Versorgungspraxis. Anwenderinnen und Anwender berichten über deutliche Zeitersparnis und bessere Entscheidungen, weil Leitlinien nicht länger mühsam recherchiert werden müssen. Gleichzeitig steigt die Behandlungsqualität, da die Empfehlungen immer evidenzbasiert sind. Interessant ist, dass nicht nur Ärztinnen und Ärzte, sondern auch Pflegekräfte, Apotheker und pharmazeutische Unternehmen von dem Tool profitieren. Alle erhalten schnellere, klarere und nachvollziehbare Informationen für ihre täglichen Aufgaben. KI für Patientinnen und Patienten Ein spannender Teil der Diskussion widmet sich der Frage, wie Patientinnen und Patienten künftig selbst mit KI arbeiten werden. Dr. Vera Rödel weist darauf hin, dass Menschen immer weniger googeln und stattdessen sofort KI-Systeme befragen – oft ohne zu wissen, woher die Informationen stammen. Für sie ist das ein Risiko, aber auch eine Chance. Deshalb plant sie eine Version von Prof. Valmed, die medizinisch korrekte Informationen direkt für Betroffene zugänglich macht. So könnten patientenseitige Recherchen zuverlässiger werden und das Gespräch mit Ärztinnen und Ärzten auf einer besseren Basis stattfinden. Herausforderungen und Wandel im Gesundheitssystem Im weiteren Verlauf beleuchtet Dr. Vera Rödel die strukturellen Hürden im europäischen Gesundheitssystem. Datenschutz, fragmentierte IT-Infrastrukturen und konservative Ausbildungsstrukturen erschweren den Einsatz neuer Technologien. Gleichzeitig sieht sie die Notwendigkeit, KI-Kompetenzen stärker in der medizinischen Ausbildung zu verankern, damit zukünftige Generationen sicherer und selbstbewusster mit KI arbeiten können. Europa müsse lernen, moderne Technologien schneller und mutiger zu integrieren, ohne dabei die eigenen Werte zu gefährden. Prof. Valmed Academy und Zukunftspläne Zum Schluss erklärt Dr. Vera Rödel, wie Prof. Valmed mit der eigenen KI-Weiterbildung, der Prof. Valmed Academy, Vertrauen schafft. Ärztinnen und Ärzte können dort CME-Punkte erwerben und lernen, wie KI-Systeme funktionieren, welche Grenzen sie haben und warum sie zuverlässig genutzt werden können. Zudem berichtet sie über die breite Einführung des Tools: Mehr als 2000 Ärztinnen und Ärzte nutzen Prof. Valmed bereits, dazu mehrere Universitätskliniken sowie medizinische Einrichtungen in Italien, im Mittleren Osten und in Asien. Dass Prof. Valmed vollständig bootstrapped ist, ermöglicht schnelle Entscheidungen und eine klare Ausrichtung an medizinischen Bedürfnissen Der Beitrag Dr. Vera Rödel – CEO von Prof. Valmed – schafft sicheres „ChatGPT für die Medizin“ statt riskanter Schatten-KI erschien zuerst auf Visionäre der Gesundheit.

By turning traditional assets like bonds, carbon credits, and real estate into digital tokens, tokenisation promises faster, cheaper, and more transparent transactions. But the real game-changer? Tokenization could open the door to investment opportunities that were once out of reach for most investors. So, how is this technology being adopted today, and what new possibilities could it unlock On Wealth Tracker, Nadiah Koh speaks to Justin Chapman, Executive VP & Group Head of Strategic Partnerships, Digital Assets and Financial Markets at Northern Trust, to find out more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's episode features guest host Michael Upshall (guest editor, Charleston Briefings) who talks with Ross Mounce, Director of Open Access, Arcadia, a family philanthropy. A paleontologist, Ross has a PhD in evolutionary biology. When he began his PhD research at the University of Bath, he realized the lack of access to research papers and the data, and he believed researchers need to be more open and transparent with their work. Ross began working with Acadia around 8 years ago. Since 2002, Arcadia has awarded $1.3 billion to organizations around the world. Arcadia funding areas include conserving and restoring nature, recording cultural heritage and promoting open access. In this interview, Ross talks about the Arcadia funding model, and how it is managed.   Ross says "We love to see practical change in the world.

In Ausgabe 118 des Science Busters Podcasts besprechen Kabarettist Martin Puntigam und der Astronom Florian Freistetter, ob publish oder perish besser ist, wie viele Papers Florian Freistetter veröffentlicht hat, worin der Unterschied zwischen referierten und nicht-referierten Papers besteht, wer wann Publi sagt, ab wann eine Studie wert ist veröffentlicht zu werden, warum man wissenschaftliche Studien nicht einfach lesen und verstehen kann, welche Papers Wissenschaftler:innen lesen und welche nicht, wie ein wissenschaftliches Paper aufgebaut ist, ab wann Publizieren ärgerlich werden kann, ob man eine gute Fachzeitschrift zweifelsfrei von einer schlechten unterscheiden kann, warum zitiert zu werden allein noch nicht viel aussagt, wofür Herausgeber:innen bei Journalen zuständig sind, ob Peer-Review sagt oder Peer-Review, warum es manchmal länger dauert, obwohl eh alles passt, ob man sich seine Gutachter:innen aussuchen kann, ob man seine Arbeit einfach so veröffentlichen darf, wieso Gutachter:innen nicht bezahlt werden, weshalb wissenschaftliche Fachzeitschriften so teuer sind, was ein Pre-Print-Server ist, ob der grüne Weg des Open Access ans Ziel führt oder ob der goldene Weg besser ist, worum es sich bei einem Zuschussverlag handelt, was B. Trüger wissenschaftlich publiziert hat und in welchem Predatory Journal und warum „Take me off your fucking mailing list” fast einmal wissenschaftlich veröffentlicht worden wäre.

In this episode ‘Does minor aggression have a major impact?' we confront a sensitive but crucial area: the effects of intimate partner violence and aggression on children. Dr. Jane Gilmour and Professor Umar Toseeb are joined by Dr. Hedwig Eisenbarth from Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand, the lead author of the paper The Impact of Less Severe Intimate Partner Aggression on Child Conduct Problems, published in JCPP Advances. This paper focuses on lower levels of violence, so they use phrases like ‘minor' or ‘less severe'. This phraseology, of course, does not imply that they are considered acceptable.  They explore how attachment theory, social learning, and even genetic factors may intersect with a child's experience of aggression in the home. The discussion covers the importance of the home environment, the need for intervention, and the complex challenge of studying these behaviours across different cultures.

The International Society for Nurses in Genetics convened a steering committee to develop a competency framework defining the role of Genomics Nurse Educators. This podcast with Dr. Deborah O. Himes presents strategies nurse educators can use to teach genomics application through a nursing program. Read the full article – it is OPEN Access (and share with colleagues).

How do we know through atmospheres? How can being affected by an atmosphere give rise to knowledge? What role does somatic, nonverbal knowledge play in how we belong to places? Atmospheric Knowledge takes up these questions through detailed analyses of practices that generate atmospheres and in which knowledge emerges through visceral intermingling with atmospheres. From combined musicological and anthropological perspectives, Birgit Abels and Patrick Eisenlohr investigate atmospheres as a compelling alternative to better-known analytics of affect by way of performative and sonic practices across a range of ethnographic settings. With particular focus on oceanic relations and sonic affectedness, Atmospheric Knowledge centers the rich affordances of sonic connections for knowing our environments.

Risible: Laughter without Reason and the Reproduction of Sound (University of California Press, 2024) explores the forgotten history of laughter, from ancient Greece to the sitcom stages of Hollywood. Delia Casadei approaches laughter not as a phenomenon that can be accounted for by studies of humor and theories of comedy but rather as a technique of the human body, knowable by its repetitive, clipped, and proliferating sound and its enduring links to the capacity for language and reproduction. This buried genealogy of laughter re-emerges with explosive force thanks to the binding of laughter to sound reproduction technology in the late nineteenth century. Analyzing case studies ranging from the early global market for phonographic laughing songs to the McCarthy-era rise of prerecorded laugh tracks, Casadei convincingly demonstrates how laughter was central to the twentieth century's development of the very category of sound as not-quite-human, unintelligible, reproductive, reproducible, and contagious.

Today I had the pleasure of talking to Professor Xiang Biao on his new book, Self as Method: Thinking Through China and the World, which was originally written and published in Chinese. The English translation has just come out with Palgrave Macmillan. Self as Method provides a manifesto of intellectual activism that counsels China's young people to think by themselves and for themselves. Consisting of three conversations between Xiang Biao, a social anthropologist, and Wu Qi, a rising journalist, the book probes how China has reached its current stage and how young people can make changes. The Chinese version, 把自己作为方法, was named the “most impactful book of 2021” by Dou4ban4, China's premier website for rating books, films, and music. The English version, which is entirely Open Access and downloadable for free, was translated by David Ownby. The book reached 157,000 downloads in just over a couple of months.

Note: This episode was originally uploaded to my Patreon Tier 3 in August 2025. It's now available as 'open access' for all followers!Speculative Frequencies: A Mixed Bag of Mysticism, Music & Mystery This ‘mixed bag' episode dives into four rich and provocative topics:*Occulture & Re-enchantment: A look at the Revenant Journal's editorial on “The Occult,” exploring how mystical practices challenge dominant paradigms and foster cultural resistance through feminist, queer, and neurodiverse lenses. *Lux Interna's Sonic Rituals: Reflections on a multimedia salon by the band Lux Interna, whose music and scholarship invoke desert mysticism, spiritual reckoning, and mythic storytelling. Includes themes of embodiment, wildness, and devotional resistance. *Feminist Witchcraft & Counter-Theology: A deep dive into Lolly Willowes and Satanic Feminism, examining how occult symbolism reclaims feminine autonomy and spiritual sovereignty. Plus, how rock music channels occult motifs for identity and transformation. *Forgotten Languages & Anomalous Cognition: A speculative exploration of the enigmatic website Forgotten Languages, its ties to CCRU theory-fiction, and psychological research on UAP witnesses. Themes include encrypted knowledge, post-human communication, and linguistic alienation. This episode has examined the intersections of sonic ritual, feminist resistance, and anomalous cognition through diverse cultural and theoretical lenses. From speculative philosophy to experiential narratives, these perspectives challenge dominant epistemologies and invite reconsideration of the boundaries between the real and the imagined. Future dialogues may benefit from interdisciplinary synthesis and critical engagement with the margins of knowledge. If you enjoyed this mixed bag, and would like to have more episodes like this, please let me know! I can certainly provide more content like this in the future. PROGRAM NOTESRevenantIntroduction : RevenantLux Internanews — Lux Internalux.interna | Instagram, Facebook | Linktree"From My Body Alone Do I Know This": Sacrament & Scripture as Technologies of the Self in the Work of Jacob BöhmeLolly Willowes | Project GutenbergSatanic Feminism: Lucifer as the Liberator of Woman in Nineteenth-Century Culture | Oxford AcademicSeason of the Witch: How the Occult Saved Rock and Roll: Bebergal, Peter: 9780399174964: Amazon.com: BooksForgotten Languages Full: Books 2022-2025The Deepest Internet Mystery You've Never Heard Of (and Why It's Now in the Congressional Record) - YouTubeCcru- cybernetic culture research unitCcru - CCRU WikiPsychological aspects in unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) witnesses | International Journal of Astrobiology | Cambridge Core  Interviews with Bob Cluness and David Metcalfe can be found in the Rejected Religion Patreon Library. www.patreon.com/RejectedReligion All Music by Daniel P.

Are we already living in some kind of fascist or technocratic dystopia? How do we avert the AI dystopia? These are the types of things that you'll see thrown about in op-eds and analysis pieces all over the net and the press. Dystopia is doing some kind of work in our political vocabulary that goes beyond a reference to those iconic dystopian novels or their sort of contemporary successors. … Sometimes politics seems to be so absorbed in the train of fantasy and the imaginary that it becomes worrying. But like it or not, or like specific expressions of the political imagination or not, the political arena is an arena of the imagination. Habermas once said that people don't fight for abstractions, but they do battle with images.                                                                                                                    – Matthew Benjamin Cole, NBN interview 2025 After centuries of contemplating utopias, late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century writers began to warn of dystopian futures. Yet these fears extended beyond the canonical texts of dystopian fiction into post-war discourses on totalitarianism, mass society, and technology, as well as subsequent political theories of freedom and domination. Fear the Future: Dystopia and Political Imagination in the Twentieth Century (U of Michigan Press, 2025) demonstrates the centrality of dystopian thinking to twentieth century political thought, showing the pervasiveness of dystopian images, themes, and anxieties. Offering a novel reading of major themes and thinkers, Fear the Future explores visions of the future from literary figures such as Yevgeny Zamyatin, Aldous Huxley, and George Orwell; political theorists such as Max Weber, Hannah Arendt, Herbert Marcuse, Jürgen Habermas, and Michel Foucault; and mid-century social scientists such as Erich Fromm, Max Horkheimer, Theodor Adorno, David Reisman, C. Wright Mills, and Jacques Ellul. It offers a comparative analysis of distinct intellectual and literary traditions, including modern utopianism and anti-utopianism, mid-century social science, Frankfurt School critical theory, and continental political philosophy. With detailed case studies of key thinkers from the Enlightenment to the late twentieth century, the book synthesizes secondary literature and research from a range of disciplinary areas, including in political theory, intellectual history, literary studies, and utopian studies. This wide-ranging reconstruction shows that while dystopian thinking has illustrated the dangers of domination and dehumanization, it has also illuminated new possibilities for freedom. Professor Cole published his book with the University of Michigan Press as Open Access: find the detailed insights and arguments that Matthew discusses in our interview here as an online publication with downloadable options.

With detailed case studies of key thinkers from the Enlightenment to the late twentieth century, the book synthesizes secondary literature and research from a range of disciplinary areas, including in political theory, intellectual history, literary studies, and utopian studies.

Are we already living in some kind of fascist or technocratic dystopia? How do we avert the AI dystopia? These are the types of things that you'll see thrown about in op-eds and analysis pieces all over the net and the press. Dystopia is doing some kind of work in our political vocabulary that goes beyond a reference to those iconic dystopian novels or their sort of contemporary successors. … Sometimes politics seems to be so absorbed in the train of fantasy and the imaginary that it becomes worrying. But like it or not, or like specific expressions of the political imagination or not, the political arena is an arena of the imagination. Habermas once said that people don't fight for abstractions, but they do battle with images.                                                                                                                    – Matthew Benjamin Cole, NBN interview 2025 After centuries of contemplating utopias, late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century writers began to warn of dystopian futures. Yet these fears extended beyond the canonical texts of dystopian fiction into post-war discourses on totalitarianism, mass society, and technology, as well as subsequent political theories of freedom and domination. Fear the Future: Dystopia and Political Imagination in the Twentieth Century (U of Michigan Press, 2025) demonstrates the centrality of dystopian thinking to twentieth century political thought, showing the pervasiveness of dystopian images, themes, and anxieties. Offering a novel reading of major themes and thinkers, Fear the Future explores visions of the future from literary figures such as Yevgeny Zamyatin, Aldous Huxley, and George Orwell; political theorists such as Max Weber, Hannah Arendt, Herbert Marcuse, Jürgen Habermas, and Michel Foucault; and mid-century social scientists such as Erich Fromm, Max Horkheimer, Theodor Adorno, David Reisman, C. Wright Mills, and Jacques Ellul.
