(https://discord.gg/jWF9BbF) OTTO BINDER: THE LIFE AND WORK OF A COMIC BOOK AND SCIENCE FICTION VISIONARY by Bill Schelly Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary chronicles the career of Otto Binder, from pulp magazine author to writer of Supergirl, Captain Marvel, and Superman comics. As the originator of the first sentient robot in literature ("I, Robot," published in Amazing Stories in 1939 and predating Isaac Asimov's collection of the same name), Binder's effect on science fiction was profound. Within the world of comic books, he created or co-created much of the Superman universe, including Smallville; Krypto, Superboy's dog; Supergirl; and the villain Braniac. Binder is also credited with writing many of the first "Bizarro" storylines for DC Comics, as well as for being the main writer for the Captain Marvel comics. In later years, Binder expanded from comic books into pure science writing, publishing dozens of books and articles on the subject of satellites and space travel as well as UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Comic book historian Bill Schelly tells the tale of Otto Binder through comic panels, personal letters, and interviews with Binder's own family and friends. Schelly weaves together Binder's professional successes and personal tragedies, including the death of Binder's only daughter and his wife's struggle with mental illness. A touching and human story, Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary is a biography that is both meticulously researched and beautifully told, keeping alive Binder's spirit of scientific curiosity and whimsy.

My special guest is L.A. Marzulli who's here to discuss what he thinks the alien phenomena really is and why everyone should be worried.     This book exposes the UFO phenomena, alien abductions, cattle mutilations, alien implants, and direct contact. It postulates that these are interdimensional beings not entities from another planet. It further exposes what may be the coming great deception as prophesied in the Bible.   Some sightings involving astronauts or NASA include: During the Gemini 4 mission, pilot Jim McDivitt spotted an object that he described as a "white cylindrical shape with a white pole sticking out of one corner of it." He took two pictures of it. His partner, Ed White, was asleep at the time.[5] McDivitt maintains that it was some unknown but man-made piece of debris, while James Oberg argues that it was most likely the Titan II second stage of the craft.[6] In a transcript of Gemini 7 mission, the astronauts mention a "bogey" which ufologists have claimed was a reference to a UFO.[7] Oberg, based on his trajectory analysis of the mission, describes the astronauts' comments about a "bogey" as referring to booster-associated debris, and not a reference to some sort of UFO.[8] The astronaut who made the comments, Frank Borman, later confirmed that what he saw was not a UFO, and that when he offered to go on the television show Unsolved Mysteries to clarify, the producers told him, "Well, I'm not sure we want you on the program."[7] Within the UFO community, stories have spread that Neil Armstrong was reported to have witnessed multiple UFOs during Apollo 11.[9] An explanation was that the sightings could have been attributed to jettisoned components. Additional stories were accredited to a hoax spread by science fiction writer Otto Binder.[1] Buzz Aldrin says his words were taken out of context from an interview in 2005 about the incident.[3] During a 2005 spacewalk outside the International Space Station, astronaut Leroy Chiao reported seeing lights in a formation he described as "in a line" and "almost like an upside-down check mark".[4] The incident was promoted as a possible UFO sighting in the television series Are We Alone?.[4]Chiao later identified the lights as being from fishing boats "hundreds of miles below".[4] In August 2013, according to NASA TV, astronaut Christopher Cassidy saw a UFO float past the International Space Station near its Progress 52 cargo ship.[10] It was soon identified by Russian flight controllers as an antenna cover from the Zvezda service module.[10] On August 19, 2020, Cosmonaut Ivan Vagner posted a video on Twitter featuring UFOs on a time lapse he recorded of the Aurora Australis. Vagner dubbed the objects "space guests" with Roscosmos quote tweeting Vagner to say “An interesting and at the same time mysterious video made by the cosmonaut of Roscosmos Ivan Wagner from the International Space Station.”Follow Our Other ShowsFollow UFO WitnessesFollow Crime Watch WeeklyFollow Paranormal FearsFollow Seven: Disturbing Chronicle StoriesJoin our Patreon for ad-free listening and more bonus content.Follow us on Instagram @mysteriousradioFollow us on TikTok mysteriousradioTikTok Follow us on Twitter @mysteriousradio Follow us on Pinterest pinterest.com/mysteriousradio Like us on Facebook Facebook.com/mysteriousradio

Episode 1 - Murdock and Marvel: 1961-1963 Normally we will be moving a year at a time, starting with Daredevil's introduction in 1964.  But this week we want to set the stage, with a quick look at the early years of the Marvel Universe, from 1961-1963. Reintroducing Ourselves The Year in Comics Comic books in the early 1960s were selling at levels that today's publishers can't even hope to attain, but the industry still down in comparison to the heady days of the pre-code “Golden Age” of comics during the 1940s and 1950s. SALES DATA  Publisher   Monthly Copies  Market Share  Dell    9,686,424    37%  National (DC)    6,653,485    25%  Harvey    2,514,879    10%  Charlton    2,500,000    10%  Marvel    2,253,112    9%  Archie    1,608,489    6%  ACG    975,000    4%    The Year in Marvel Marvel was founded in 1939 by Martin Goodman First title was Marvel Comics #1 with the Sub-Mariner and the Human Torch  Joe Simon was first Editor-In-Chief Jack Kirby was hired in 1940, and co-created Captain America with Simon that year  Also in 1940, Stanley Lieber, the teenage cousin of Goodman's wife, was hired as an office assistant.  In 1961 Timely became Marvel, just in time for FF #1.  The 1st Marvel branded comics were Journey into Mystery #69 and Patsy Walker #95  Many important creators worked for Marvel during this time, but according to the data in the Grand Comics Database it was primarily the work of 2 writers, 3 artists, 3 inkers, two letterers and one colorist that set the groundwork for the Marvel universe. These 11 creators are:  Stan Lee  476  Writer/Editor  Larry Lieber  260  Writer  Steve Ditko  253  Writer/Artist  Jack Kirby  222  Writer/Artist  Don Heck  132  Artist  Dick Ayers  173  Inker for Kirby / Penciller  Paul Reinman  52  Inker for Kirby / Penciller  Sol Brodsky  36  Inker / Production Manager  Artie Simek  303  Letterer  Ray Holloway  62  Letterer.  Black creator  Stan Goldberg  424  Colorist / Artist (humor stuff)    The Year in Daredevil  Way back in 1940 Jack Binder created the first Daredevil as a boomerang wielding vigilante who had a tragic backstory like Batman and was fighting Hitler in the comics before the US entered the war like Captain America.  The character was popular through the 1940s, but was mothballed when superheroes went out of favor in the 1950s. Note: Jack Binder is the older brother of Otto Binder, co-creator of Mary Marvel, Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes!  Otto was one of the all-time greats in comics, with over 50,000 pages written over parts of five decades. For more about him check out:  Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary by Bill Schelly (2016)  https://www.penguinrandomhouseretail.com/book/?isbn=9781623170370 This Week's Spotlight No spotlight this week because there haven't been any Daredevil comics published yet! The fun starts next week.  The Takeaway The Marvel boom of the 1960s heralded a fundamental transformation of the comics industry.  Marvel books skewed towards older audiences, with more disposable income.  Marvel fans increasingly looked at comic writing or drawing as a preferred career choice, and both the comic industry and comic fandom began a transformation that would result in the creation of specialty shops and the direct market.  One way to see this change is to look at how the popularity of comic “genres” changed over time.  Marvel genres in the early 1960s  Humor (13 titles, 116 issues, 25%)  SF/Fantasy/Monsters (7 titles, 108 comics, 23%)   Romance (11 titles, 94 issues, 20%)   Superhero (7 titles, 47 issues, 10%)   Western (4 titles, 44 issues, 10%)   Pinup (4 titles, 42 issues, 10%)   War (1 title, 4 issues, 1%)  Marvel by the late 1960s is over 50% Superhero!  Questions or comments We'd love to hear from you!  Email us at questions@comicsovertime.com or find us on Twitter @comicsoftime. ------------------ THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING CREATORS AND RESOURCES  Music: Our theme music is by the very talented Lesfm.  You can find more about them and their music at https://pixabay.com/users/lesfm-22579021/.  The Grand Comics Database: Dan uses custom queries against a downloadable copy of the GCD to construct his publisher, title and creator charts.  Comichron: Our source for comic book sales data.  Man Without Fear: Kuljit Mithra's Daredevil site contains a staggering collection of resources about our hero, including news, interviews and comic details.    The American Comic Book Chronicles: Published by TwoMorrows, these volumes provide an excellent analysis of American comics through the years.  Because these volumes break down comic history by year and decade they are a great place to get a basic orientation on what is happening across the comic industry at a particular point in time.  Joshua and Jamie Do Daredevil: A fantastic podcast that does a deep-dive into Daredevil comics.  This ran from 2018-2020, and covered most of the first volume of Daredevil, and was a fun way to get an in-depth look at each issue of Daredevil from 1-377.  My Marvelous Year: This is a reading-club style podcast where Dave Buesing and friends chose important or interesting books from a particular year to read and discuss.  This helped me remember some fun and crazy stories, and would be a great companion piece to Murdock and Marvel for those who want more comic-story-specific coverage.  BOOKLIST  The following books have been frequently used as reference while preparing summaries of the comic history segments of our show.  Each and every one comes recommended by Dan for fans wanting to read more about it!  Licari, Fabio and Marco Rizzo.  Marvel: The First 80 Years: The True Story of a Pop-Culture Phenomenon.  London: Titan Books, 2020.  This book is sort of a mess, as the print quality is terrible, and Titan doesn't even credit the authors unless you check the fine print.  It's like this was published by Marvel in the early 60s! But the information is good, and it is presented in an entertaining fashion.  So its decent, but I would recommend you see if you can just borrow it from the library instead of purchasing.  Wells, John.  American Comic Book Chronicles: 1960-1964.  Raleigh: Two Morrows, 2015.  Not cheap, but a fantastic series that is informative and fun to read.  Wright, Bradford.  Comic Book Nation: The Transformation of Youth Culture in America.  Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2001.  This is the revised edition.  Marvel Year By Year: A Visual History.  New York: DK Publishing, 2022.  The academic in my rails at using information from any work that doesn't have an author credit, but this is a decent (if very surface) look at each year in the history of Timely / Marvel from 1939 to 2021.    Cowsill, Alan et al.  DC Comics Year by Year: A Visual History.  New York: DK Publishing, 2010.  Because its nice to occasionally take a peek at what the Distinguished Competition is up to.  Dauber, Jeremy.  American Comics: A History.  New York, W.W. Norton & Company, 2022.  An excellent, relatively compact history of the domestic comic industry from its 19th century origins through to recent 21st century developments.  An excellent successor to Bradford Wright's Comic Book Nation.

How did Ted know certain events were going to happen? He claimed ETs, "Space Intelligences" told him. The story of Ted Owens is a challenge for skeptics. The PK Man: A True Story of Mind Over Matter, Amazon - by Jeffrey Mishlove  Forward by John E. Mack Ted Owens claimed he had been visited by extraterrestrials (ETs). He said the ETs taught him how to use his mind to control objects and events, a power that he called "psychokinesis" or PK. Owens claimed he used his PK abilities to predict future events, such as the outcome of sporting events and the stock market. He also claimed that he used his PK abilities to help people, such as by healing the sick and preventing accidents. Ted called the ETs, "Space Intelligences" ...  When claims of his PK abilities were ignored or challenged, he rebelled and is said to have produced earthquakes, civil unrest, UFO sightings, strange weather events, and other powerful phenomena. Jeffrey Mishlove saw more than a few demonstrations. Enough to say Ted did indeed possess abilities that are beyond explanation. Regarding his temper and creating disturbances or causing physical harm when aggravated, Jeffrey says he experienced the effects of one of those negative outbursts. Ted acknowledged (without being confronted or accused) his actions and apologized.   Amazon Reviews - 1. "The reason this book is on my keeper shelf is because of the valuable exercises in Chapter 11. I found them to be empowering and unique. If you are interested in developing abilities or honing what you have, have a look at them." 2. "I knew Mr. Owens from about 1970 to 1973 and have read other books, magazines and articles about Ted, or written by Ted, or his preferred biographer, Otto Binder, who wrote the original comic "I Robot" which later became famous for Isaac Asimov as a book."

Episode 36 - All About the Big Red Cheese This week we are taking a major diversion from our normal path, and taking a look at Marvel's Distinguished Competition.  That's right, we mentioned a while ago that we would be starting to branch out a bit, and with the new Shazam! Movie appearing in theaters this weekend I wanted to get Duane up to speed on the original Captain Marvel, one of the oldest heroes in comics – a character that once was more popular than Superman himself!    This Week In Comics Brian Michael Bendis Announces Fortune & Glory Sequel  Marvel Teases the Debut of a New Spider-Man Hero  Recommendation: DC stories for new comic readers Morrison's All-Star Superman George Perez's Wonder Woman Alex Ross's Justice This Week's Stack Shazam Vol. 1 (1973) Shazam! Power of Hope (2000) Shazam! The Monster Society Of Evil (2007) Creator Focus: Jeff Smith 2 Minute Recap and Discussion Topics Shazam Vol. 1 This is VERY MUCH a kids book, but also VERY meta aware, with numerous references to “I remember him from when I was a kid…he doesn't look a day older.” Kid superhero, no surprise, was well liked by kids “Mr. Binder” is a reference to Otto Binder.  Wrote many classic Captain Marvel stories, and also co-created Supergirl.   Very much feels like the first Shazam film Quick history of Captain Marvel and why Shazam is used  Shazam! Power of Hope Alex Ross is like no other comic artist.  He is our Norman Rockwell. Many of his characters are based on real people, who serve as models for his illustrations.  The model for Shazam has been the same person for decades. This is a simple, powerful story.  Tells a wonderful story with some action and makes you think after finishing it.  Shazam! The Monster Society Of Evil  A very fun story, and a love letter to the whole history of CM/Shazam  Has a very “old fashioned” feel  Not something to think too deeply on  Adults aren't cast in a friendly light throughout this.   Call back to older Villains – Dr. Sivana.

My special guest tonight is author Jeff Danelek who's here to discuss his book called  UFOs: The Great Debate: An Objective Look at Extraterrestrials, Government Cover-Ups, and the Prospect of First Contact.     UFO sightings in outer space are sightings of unidentified flying objects reported by astronauts while in space that they could not explain at the time. These sightings have been claimed as evidence for alien visits by ufologists.  Some of the alleged sightings never occurred: science fiction writer Otto Binder perpetuated a hoax claiming Apollo 11 Commander Neil Armstrong had encountered UFOs during the Apollo mission.[1]UFO proponents see comments by astronauts or photos processed by NASA as one of the "strongest bodies of evidence" because they are considered to be of high trustworthiness; however, NASA Assistant Administrator for Legislative Affairs, Robert F. Allnut, concluded in a 1970 letter, "after fifteen years of manned space voyages including space stations and landing on the Moon, spacemen have brought back not a shred of evidence – verbal, photographic, or otherwise – for the existence of extraterrestrial spacecraft, or 'UFOs'."[2]  In 2009, footage from NASA was posted on YouTube by ufologists which "renew[ed] UFO conspiracy theories that the government is hiding knowledge about its interactions with intelligent life" by relying on a "lack of context" to promote a "collection of indistinct imagery and allegations".[3] A number of the incidents were collected for an episode of the 2014 television series Are We Alone?     Are we alone in the universe?  UFOs and all related phenomena have been deeply embedded into our culture's consciousness―the possibility that aliens are among us can't be easily dismissed or ignored. Today, one burning question keeps the fire of speculation raging: Do aliens really exist?  With a fair-minded, yet incisive, look at the case for and against extraterrestrial life, J. Allan Danelek takes you on a tantalizing tour of the controversial issues, paranormal experiences, and scientific theories surrounding UFOs and alien intelligence in this stimulating book on UFOs.  One big conspiracy?  Decide for yourself as you consider the fascinating facts―the mysterious crash in Roswell, crop circles, alien abductions, radar and satellite observations, and more. Danelek delves into government cover-ups, examines the prospect of space travel, and even proposes scenarios of first contact with an alien race.  By taking part in this captivating discussion, we can discover the truth about our world and gain insight into human nature. What will the ever-evolving UFO debate reveal about your beliefs?       It's super easy to access our archives!   Here's how:   iPhone Users: Access Mysterious Radio from Apple Podcasts and become a subscriber there or if you want access to even more exclusive content join us on Patreon.   Android Users: Enjoy over 800 exclusive member-only posts to include ad-free episodes, case files and more when you join us on Patreon.    Copy and Paste our link in a text message to all your family members and friends!

Ep: #36 | Maliarte no seu Podcast: Tecnologia e Comunicação entre Interfaces I, Robot (em português Eu, Robô) é uma coletânea literária de contos escrita pelo russo Isaac Asimov. Os contos já haviam sido publicados em revistas. Asimov amarra os contos uns aos outros, como uma pesquisa de um jornalista, que vai entrevistando as pessoas e aí entram os contos. Um dos maiores sucessos de Asimov, contém as Três Leis da Robótica, enunciadas por Asimov e amplamente aceitas até por outros autores. O título da coletânea veio do conto "I, Robot" (1939), de Eando Binder (pseudónimo de Earl (1904–1965) e Otto Binder (1911-1974). Asimov queria que o título fosse Mind and Iron, e inicialmente se opôs quando a editora usou o mesmo nome do conto. Isaac Asimov foi fortemente influenciada pelo conto.

[VOTE FOR WHAT YEAR WE COVER IN 2021: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HPLW5SX] It's our first ever big superhero blockbuster! Only took us 99 episodes to get to one. This week, we're talking about Supergirl, released November 21st in 1984. It's pretty terrible, however we can't quite agree on if it's so-bad-it's-good or if it's just a really awful movie.

It's Superman IV!Here we are again and this time we bring you Christopher Reeve's last outing as the Man of Steel: Superman IV. It's a crying shame that this is the end of the line for the man that is so excellent in this role that he's become iconic. The sad part is, you can see him really trying and fighting against the dying light that was this once proud series. God bless the man and everything he was - a planetary treasure.Plus!Did the United Nations relocate to Milton Keynes? Was the Kent's Farm in Hereford all along? Did Cannon Films go super cheap on all of the sets and location shoots? All yes.Also!We learn how Superman was ripped off to create Captain Marvel and then Superman plagiarised Captain Marvel and sued him out of existence. This is a roundabout way of saying that there were some legal shenanigans. We also cover the very sad tale of the great Otto Binder - a man who deserved a far better fate than the one that befell him.Thank you, as always, for downloading. It means an awful lot at the moment as we're still no closer to all living under the same roof again. Doing this gives us a chance to hang out and laugh for a while and we appreciate you joining us.

Visit Superhero-Fiction for the Full Shownoteshttps://www.superhero-fiction.comTrish - Almost done with this draft of Fire and Ice and ready to revise!Jeremy - Also, almost done with the third book in his next series, hurray!This month in Pop-Culture History 1959 Supergirl, Kara Zor-El flew onto the scene, created by Otto Binder and Al Plastino. 1980 Empire Strikes Back is released. Fun Fact: The movie was NOT a hit with fans, they hated Han and Leia together, they hated the ending, and many hated Darth Vader being Luke’s Dad.2010 - Betty White hosted Saturday Night Live, thanks to a push by fans on Facebook. She won an Emmy for her appearance and further cemented herself as one of the Queens of comedy. (There’s a GREAT Documentary on Netflix about Betty White if you want more awesome in your day.)Geek Outs!Trish-The Lady from the Black Lagoon  Chronicling the life and lost legacy of Millicent Patrick, this book is part biography of an amazing woman from Hollywood’s golden age, and part memoir of the author’s struggles with misogyny in Hollywood today. I was deeply moved by this book and can’t recommend it enough! If you’re a fan of movie monsters you need this book.  Get the book!Jeremy- The Walking Dead - I don’t have a lot of time lately to spend on media, but the newest season is keeping me interested. The Whispers are a creepy ass villain and there’s even a bizarre zombie sex reference. But overall, there have been some episodes that made even my skin crawl and that’s a huge feat. The dead weight has been skimmed from the plot and we’re left with a tightly written story about survival and what happens when good people are pushed too far.Deep Dive - So you think it’s a Superhero novel, huh?Is it or isn’t it a Superhero Novel is one of the most talked-about and hotly debated topics when any superhero author brings up how their category has been overrun by non-superhero books. Today, Trish and Jeremy will introduce you to an easy way to answer this question. If only someone from Amazon were listening and would do something about this…To help make it easier to figure out if a novel is indeed a superhero novel, we created the Heinrich-Flagg Test. To be considered a superhero novel, at least two members of the Avengers (from any given roster) must be able to exist in the novel without changing their origin or their powers.So let’s try it with some popular characters:Harry - Harry Potter - FailKatniss - Hunger Games - FailEve Tanaka - Heroine Complex - Gray Area (leans toward Pass)Buffy from Buffy - We tried, but FailQotW:  Who do you want us to put to the test? Send us that hero that is in the gray area between great hero and superhero.

Having been a part of the zine scene in the 1960s and early 1970s, and starting when he was a teenager, Schelly worked with many of the movers and shakers within the fan community and published several fanzines of his own. In the early 1990s he returned to comics as a chronicler and as a historian, writing various overviews of comic fandom, and then later making his mark as a comics biographer, covering the lives of such creators as Joe Kubert, Otto Binder, John Stanley, and Harvey Kurtzman, the latter biography earning him a 2016 Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Book. On this interview episode, Derek talks with Bill about his new book, Sense of Wonder: My Life in Comic Fandom – the Whole Story, and his decisions to revise and expand this memoir from its original 2001 version released through TwoMorrows Publishing. This new edition of Sense of Wonder, published by North Atlantic Books, is significantly expanded, covers Schelly's entire life up until now, and is written with a much more personal, and revealing, tone than the original. Bill discusses in detail his history in comics fandom and his growth as an editor and writer, as well as the personal milestones that have marked his life.  You can learn more about Bill Schelly and his work by checking out his website.

OTTO BINDER: THE LIFE AND WORK OF A COMIC BOOK AND SCIENCE FICTION VISIONARY by Bill Schelly Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary chronicles the career of Otto Binder, from pulp magazine author to writer of Supergirl, Captain Marvel, and Superman comics. As the originator of the first sentient robot in literature ("I, Robot," published in Amazing Stories in 1939 and predating Isaac Asimov's collection of the same name), Binder's effect on science fiction was profound. Within the world of comic books, he created or co-created much of the Superman universe, including Smallville; Krypto, Superboy's dog; Supergirl; and the villain Braniac. Binder is also credited with writing many of the first "Bizarro" storylines for DC Comics, as well as for being the main writer for the Captain Marvel comics. In later years, Binder expanded from comic books into pure science writing, publishing dozens of books and articles on the subject of satellites and space travel as well as UFOs and extraterrestrial life. Comic book historian Bill Schelly tells the tale of Otto Binder through comic panels, personal letters, and interviews with Binder's own family and friends. Schelly weaves together Binder's professional successes and personal tragedies, including the death of Binder's only daughter and his wife's struggle with mental illness. A touching and human story, Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary is a biography that is both meticulously researched and beautifully told, keeping alive Binder's spirit of scientific curiosity and whimsy.

Andy and Derek are pleased to have as a guest on their show Bill Schelly. A new edition of his book, Otto Binder: The Life and Work of a Comic Book and Science Fiction Visionary, was released earlier this month from North Atlantic Books. The guys talk with Bill about the legendary writer's work on the Captain Marvel and the Marvel family, his impressive run on Superman titles, and his role in the early science fiction pulps (mostly under the name he used when collaborating with his brother, Earl, Eando Binder). As they point out in the conversation, there are facets to Binder's life that are overshadowed by his work on the Big Red Cheese, and Bill's book thoroughly chronicles the sides of Otto Binder that you may not have known. Examples of this would include Binder's work at EC Comics, his writing for Jim Warren's Creepy, his close ties to comics fandom, his attempts at becoming science magazine publisher, and his later-life research on UFOs. They also discuss the darker aspects of Binder's life and the challenges he faced in his last decade. In addition to their discussion of the new Otto Binder book, the Two Guys also talk with Bill about his other works, including last year's biography of Harvey Kurtzman, his research on Joe Kubert, his upcoming book on John Stanley, and his histories of comics fandom. The guys come away from their conversation arguing that Bill Schelly's research is indispensable to comics scholars and that he continues to provide detailed and highly readable, almost novel-like, chronicles of the medium.
