See pictures and read more on materiallyspeaking.comNilda Comas knew she'd be an artist from a very young age, and now she'll be the first Hispanic master sculptor to create a statue for the US National Statuary Hall. She describes her journey, from a childhood in Puerto Rico to coming to Italy and learning carving skills from the artisans in Pietrasanta.Following the shocking Charleston church shooting in 2015, the State of Florida decided to change one of the two sculptures representing them in the National Statuary Hall in Washington. They chose to honour Dr Mary McLeod Bethune, educator, philanthropist and civil rights activist. Then, from 1600 entries, Nilda Comas won the commission to create the statue in marble.Nilda explains how creating a statue of Dr Mary McLeod Bethune was such an extraordinary commission for her. Bethune was born the 15th of 17 children in 1875, in Mayesville, South Carolina to former slaves. As a young child she became eager to learn how to read and write, and soon education – for herself, her siblings and other African Americans – became her key ambition.Mary McLeod Bethune founded a school for African American students in Daytona Beach, Florida, which later became Bethune-Cookman University.In 1911, Bethune opened the first black hospital in Daytona, Florida. She became a friend to Eleanor Roosevelt and subsequently an adviser to president Franklin D Roosevelt in what was unofficially known as his Black Cabinet. Bethune was the only woman of colour at the founding conference of the United Nations in 1945.This episode follows the creation of this special commission from Florida's decision to change their statue, Nilda winning the commission, finding the stone, the process of creating the sculpture, through to the moment it was unveiled in Italy in July 2021. All against the challenges of the last three years.After the statue was unveiled in Pietrasanta in July 2021 it was shipped to Florida and went on view in Daytona Beach, before taking a short tour to Bethune's birthplace in Mayesville, South Carolina. Finally it will make its way to the US Capitol for inauguration in the summer of 2022.We hear from some of the 54 visitors who came to Pietrasanta from the USA for this special event and hear what the African American statue means to them.ContributorsThanks to all the contributors to this episode: Nilda Comas, master sculptor Nancy Lohman, chair of the Dr Mary McLeod Bethune Statuary Fund Derrick Henry, mayor of Daytona Beach Dr Hiram Powell, interim president of Bethune-Cookman University Rev Thom Shafer of Fort Myers Kathy Castor, Florida Democratic US representative Shonterika Hall, Bethune-Cookman alumni Khalil Bradley, Bethune-Cookman alumni Hannah Randolph, Bethune-Cookman alumni Sarah Slaughter, Bethune-Cookman alumni Jacari W Harris, former B-CU student government president and social justice activist Yolanda Cash Jackson, lawyer and lobbyist.

Philip Sheppard, of Sheppard’s Irish Auction House in Durrow, County Laois, shares some of his favourite reading, watching, listening, eating and smelling.

Detroit: Become Human is a detailed sci-fi narrative with some of Quantic Dream's most ambitious music to date. In order to best score the story's three playable characters, a trio of top tier composers joined the project – each focusing on one thread of an interweaving narrative. For Connor – an android police investigator – Nima Fahkrara mixed an array of hardware synths and custom instruments with electric strings to great effect. Philip Sheppard, known for lavish orchestral arrangements, made the very best of Abbey Road and his own inspiration for Kara's emotional arc. Finally, John Paesano – who gamers may know best for Marvel's Spider-Man – wrote soaring, almost biblical themes to accompany Markus. Though unable to schedule a conversation with John Paesano, I'm fortunate enough to be joined by both Nima Fahkrara and Philip Sheppard throughout this episode. Together, we'll explore their different soundtracks for Detroit: Become Human, the production processes that fuelled them and some thoughts about composing for games in general. Both Nima and Philip have worked extensively in other mediums, and have some interesting perspectives on how they adapt to the world of VGM.

My guest today is Philip Sheppard, composer, cellist, inventor, and a professor at the Royal Academy of Music in London. How do I unpack everything from this episode? Philip is an engaging conversationalist, and coupled with his British accent (let’s face it, in America that carries a lot of weight) I feel like we could have easily expanded this episode to twice the length of the final cut. Philip has led what I consider a dynamic and interesting life, peppered with stories of dinner parties with royalty and recording music in the famous Abbey Road Studio One with microphones used by the Beatles. Phillip says he doesn’t have a “real job,” but he nevertheless is able to make the best of situations and do what needs to be done to be successful. Like many of us, he suffers from imposter syndrome, but instead of allowing that to prevent him from moving forward he leans in and learns whatever he needs to in order to accomplish the impossible.
