Þrítugasti og annar þáttur af hlaðvarpsþættinum Handboltinn okkar kom út í kvöld. Umsjónarmenn þáttarins að þessu sinni voru þeir Gestur Guðrúnarson, Jói Lange og Arnar Gunnarsson. Í þættinum að þessu sinni fóru þeir félagar yfir leik Íslands og Króatíu þar sem að íslenska liðið tapaði með eins marks mun. Þeim félögum fannst íslenska liðið vera langt frá sínu besta í þessum leik og það væri engu líkara en að orkan væri farin að tæmast hjá nokkrum leikmönnum íslenska liðsins. Umsjónarmenn þáttarins halda þó enn í vonina um sæti í undanúrslitum og þeir eru vissir um að íslenska liðið geri sitt með því að vinna Svarfjallaland á miðvikudaginn. En þeir voru þó ekki eins sammála um það hvort að Danir muni klára sitt verkefni.

This week, we're revisiting the most popular episode of 2021 in which I'm joined by my client and friend, Thalia Prum. Thalia is a dietitian who helps parents overcome picky eating challenges, conquer mealtime battles and raise happy & healthy eaters.     One thing I love about Thalia is her incredible persistence and this is exactly what's allowed her to go from selling $19.99 courses to getting fully booked with a waitlist of eager clients, growing her IG account to well over 100K followers, launching a group program, and making $10K+ months (while also having plenty of time to enjoy leisurely lunches out with her husband and afternoons playing with her kids).     In this episode, Thalia and I chat about: ✨ What led Thalia to start her Instagram account and how it's grown to 127K followers ✨ The tradeoffs that come with a large audience and why having one doesn't guarantee success ✨ Her initial struggle with discovery calls, what fueled her to keep going, and how it led her to getting fully booked with a waitlist ✨ What success looks like for Thalia and what she'd be doing with her time if she had all the money in the world ✨ Why mindset is everything when it comes to business AND overcoming picky eating challenges as a parent     This episode is full of gems and I know you're gonna love Thalia's transparency and all the valuable takeaways she shares.     Connect with Thalia Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/family.snack.nutritionist/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/FamilySnackNutritionist/featured Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/family.snack.nutritionist/ Website: https://theplumpantry.com/      Wanna be my next success story?

Richard Prum really cares about birds. Growing up in rural Vermont, he didn't know anyone else interested in birding his own age. The experience taught him to rely on his own sense of curiosity and importance when deciding what questions and interests are worth studying. As a result, he has pursued many different paths of research in avian biology — such as behavioral evolution, where feathers come from, sexual selection and mate choice — many of which have led to deep implications in the field. In 2017, Tyler agreed with several prominent outlets that Prum's book The Evolution of Beauty was one of the best books of the year, writing that it “offers an excellent and clearly written treatment of the particulars of avian evolution, signaling theory, and aesthetics, bringing together some disparate areas very effectively.” Richard joined Tyler to discuss the infidelity of Australian birds, the debate on the origins of avian flight, how the lack of a penis explains why birds are so beautiful, why albatrosses can afford to take so many years to develop before mating, the game theory of ornithology, how flowers advertise themselves like a can of Coke, how modern technology is revolutionizing bird watching, why he's pro-bird feeders yet anti- outdoor cats, how scarcity predicts territoriality in birds, his favorite bird artist, how Oilbirds got their name, how falcons and cormorants hunt and fish with humans, whether birds exhibit a G factor, why birds have regional accents, whether puffins will perish, why he's not excited about the idea of trying to bring back passenger pigeons, the “dumb question” that marks a talented perspective ornithologist, and more.

This episode of Injustices Uncovered explores the environmental and labor rights issues that go unnoticed in the commercial fishing industry. The two hosts, Quinton and Haley, begin by expelling some common perceptions about fishing and then introduce Vannak Anan Prum, a Cambodian man who's story reveals how modern slavery is possible. The episode concludes by examining the ways in which this injustice is being addressed and how solutions should be improved. Quinton and Haley, with Prum's help, hope to bring attention to this pressing issue and implore consumers in the West to be more mindful of the seafood they buy.

Vackra teorier har haft stor framgång inom fysikvetenskapen. Men kanske har det kommit till en punkt när vi måste ge upp skönheten? Helena Granström reflekterar över det sköna och sanna. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Beauty is truth, truth beauty, skaldade en gång den brittiske romantiske poeten John Keats skönhet är sanning, sanning skönhet men trots skönheten i denna poetiska formulering, är åtminstone jag benägen att ifrågasätta dess sanningshalt. Faktum är att Keats påstående borde betvivlas av alla som någon gång har låtit sig förföras av en vacker men otillförlitlig yta och då har vi inte ens kommit in på skönhetens förgänglighet, som väl i sig måste anses sätta den i motsatsposition till den eviga sanningen. Men det är värt att lägga märke till hur dikten fortsätter, nämligen that is all ye know on earth, and all ye need to know att det sköna och det sanna sammanfaller är hos Keats inte bara allt vi människor vet, utan också allt vi behöver veta. Att skönheten utgör en kungsväg till sanningen är emellertid inte enbart en poetisk devis, utan sedan länge även en naturvetenskaplig. I synnerhet bland fysiker är det lätt att finna ståndpunkter som att en vacker teori inom den fundamentala fysiken har en större chans att vara korrekt, och att naturen bäst beskrivs i ekvationer som är så enkla, vackra, kompakta och allmängiltiga som möjligt.  Den tyske 1900-talsfysikern Hermann Weyl beskriver hur han i sitt arbete alltid har försökt förena det vackra med det sanna, men när han någon gång blivit tvungen att välja, vanligtvis valt det vackra ett val som i Weyls fall mer än en gång visade sig vara det riktiga. De ekvationer som deras upphovsman ansåg för vackra för att överge beskrev visserligen inte det de ursprungligen avsåg att beskriva, men i slutändan visade de sig ändå vara giltiga för någon aspekt av naturen. Historiskt har skönheten med andra ord erbjudit en värdefull vägledning i sökandet efter sanningen om verkligheten. Alla kända naturlagar svarar mot någon form av matematisk symmetri; en egenskap som är av central betydelse för att någonting ska anses vackert inom fysiken. Frågan är om detsamma gäller för den fysik vi ännu inte upptäckt om Keats, det vill säga, faktiskt hade rätt. En som anmäler stark skepsis i frågan är den tyska fysikern Sabine Hossenfelder i boken Lost in math. Att skönhetsidealen spelade en roll för tillkomsten av exempelvis den allmänna relativitetsteorin, innebär inte att de gagnar fysiken idag. I synnerhet inte som grundforskningens förutsättningar förändrats under det senaste seklet: Om den teoretiska fysikens uppgift tidigare var att förklara redan gjorda observationer, är det numera snarare teorierna som avgör vilka observationer som görs, i ofta både kostsamma och tidskrävande experiment. Om vi enbart är villiga att pröva de eleganta hypoteserna, är risken att vi inte hittar något alls. Dessutom har förkärleken för det vackra, menar Hossenfelder, alltmer kommit att byggas in i matematiken, så att det inte längre är tydligt vad den faktiskt är, nämligen en estetisk preferens. Vi förväntar inte bara av våra teorier att de ska ge korrekta förutsägelser, utan också att de ska ha en hög grad av symmetri, inte innehålla någonting till synes godtyckligt, och dessutom gärna kunna ge en gemensam förklaring till flera skilda fenomen i slutändan inte av något mer stringent skäl än att vi tycker att sådant är fint. Effekten av allt detta är att det som fungerar kritiseras för att det inte är vackert nog: På samma sätt som vissa fysiker inledningsvis sade sig ha varit beredda att tro på den numera etablerade kvantelektrodynamiken om den inte hade varit så ful, anklagas partikelfysikens standardmodell idag allmänt för att vara, med Stephen Hawkings ord, ful och ad hoc. Samtidigt som samma fysiker vägrar avfärda det som inte fungerar, och istället justerar sina eleganta teorier för att slippa ta konsekvenserna av uteblivna resultat. De är ju helt enkelt så vackra att de borde vara sanna: Gud är subtil men inte ondsint, som Einstein en gång uttryckte det, med vilket han alltså ville säga att Gud är subtil men han har inte dålig smak. Fysikvetenskapens belägenhet påminner en hel del om biologins, som den beskrivs av ornitologen Richard Prum i boken Skönhetens evolution. På 1990-talet rådde i princip konsensus i forskarvärlden om sambandet mellan ett symmetriskt utseende och god genetisk kvalitet en uppfattning som så småningom visade sig sakna vetenskapligt stöd. Vilket inte innebär att idén övergetts tvärtom. Inte minst lever den vidare i form av det så kallade kostsamhetsargument som gör gällande att estetiska uttryck i djurvärlden allt ifrån ståtliga fjäderdräkter till invecklade parningsritualer är en manifestation av fitnessöverskottet hos den som uppvisar dem: Jag kan inte bara överleva, jag kan dessutom göra det medan jag bär runt på en jättestor stjärt. Men, betonar Prum, Darwin själv insåg att det inte är så enkelt: Skönheten är inte bara en indikation på någonting annat, utan en evolutionär kraft i egen rätt. Istället för att vittna om förmågan till anpassning och överlevnad, tycks ett attraktivt yttre tvärtom kunna stå i direkt konflikt med den, särskilt som den som dras till den vackra ytan ofta nog är beredd att bortse från det som finns under. Begäret efter skönhet, skriver Prum, kommer att hävda sig och underminera törsten efter sanning. Det finns emellertid en uppenbar skillnad mellan fysik och biologi i detta avseende: Om vi tror att det existerar en djup koppling mellan skönhet och sanning här i bemärkelsen funktion är det i fallet med sexuellt urval lätt att föreställa sig att känslan för den skulle ha inpräntats i oss av evolutionen. Att vi skulle vara i besittning av samma genetiskt betingade intuition när det gäller den abstrakta matematiska beskrivningen av fenomen som vi aldrig haft och aldrig kommer att få någon sinnlig erfarenhet av tycks onekligen mer långsökt. Vad är egentligen den evolutionära fördelen med kvantgravitation? Men icke desto mindre tycks många forskare finna analogin oproblematisk: Nobelpristagaren Steven Weinberg liknar fysikerns förkärlek för skönhet vid den hos en hästuppfödare som känner igen en vacker häst. Uppfödarens erfarenhet säger honom, menar Weinberg, att den vackra hästen också är den sortens häst som vinner lopp. Hans kollega Frank Wilczek ser samma samband, men i omvänd riktning: Det har alltid funnits ett evolutionärt värde i att tro på det som är sant, och upplevelsen av skönhet är i grunden ingenting annat än de biologiska belöningssystemens reaktion när de ställs inför det sanna. Hossenfelder, å sin sida, förblir kallsinnig. Att fysiker och matematiker tycker att ekvationer är vackra är knappast mer betydelsefullt än att bilmekaniker gillar att betrakta en väloljad motor. Att dessa specialisters skönhetssinne skulle ha något att säga oss om universums beskaffenhet finns det helt enkelt mycket få skäl att tro. Kanske kommer den slutliga sanningen om universum, när vi väl finner den, visa sig vara precis så otymplig, stökig och bristfällig som verkligheten i stort. Eller kanske kommer vi inte att finna den alls och bor det i så fall inte en sorts skönhet också i det?

The statue of Reine Berthe in the Jardin du Luxembourg is one of my favorites of the twenty illustrious ladies in French history. She may not be as well known as Marie de Medicis but you will know the name of her son and her story is pretty amazing. Born in 720 to Count Caribert de Laon and Blanche-Fleur de Prum her beauty was known far and wide. When Pepin le Bref, future king of the Franks heard of her stunning beauty he wanted her for his wife. Different histories say he may have been married before to Leutburgie and when he heard of Berthe, he asked Leutburgie to leave court. The marriage was arranged and Berthe headed to court to meet her future husband.What happens next is a pretty amazing story, tune into the podcast to see how it ends. More info and photos: https://www.claudinehemingway.com/paris-history-avec-a-hemingway-podcast-1Support Claudine on Patreon and get more of Paris and all her stories and benefits like discounts on her tours, custom history and exclusive content  https://www.patreon.com/bleublonderougefacebook https://www.facebook.com/BleuBlondeRougeInstagram https://www.instagram.com/claudinebleublonderouge/Sign up for the weekly Blue Blonde Rouge newsletter  https://view.flodesk.com/pages/5e8f6d73375c490028be6a76Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/join/Laviecreative)

Paulo Gama Mota é biólogo, doutorado e professor na Universidade de Coimbra. Os seus interesses científicos têm sido o estudo do comportamento animal e a compreensão das suas causas evolutivas. O convidado foi também Director do Museu da Ciência da Universidade de Coimbra até 2015, e é actualmente presidente da Sociedade Portuguesa de Etologia. -> Apoie este projecto e faça parte da comunidade de mecenas do 45 Graus em: 45graus.parafuso.net/apoiar Nesta conversa, fizemos uma viagem pela Biologia Evolutiva, percorrendo vários aspectos da teoria da evolução.  A evolução é um bom candidato à área mais fascinante da ciência. Como dizia o filósofo Daniel Dennett -- de quem falámos no episódio passado -- a descoberta de Darwin de evolução por selecção natural é, provavelmente, “a melhor ideia que alguém alguma vez teve”. Uma ideia muito simples de explicar, mas, na prática, com a imensa variedade da árvore da vida, incrivelmente complexa.  Compreender a lógica da evolução é fascinante por si só, mas também nos ajuda a compreender melhor uma série de outros aspectos, seja de outras áreas da ciência seja do nosso comportamento humano. Por isso, é um tema que já veio a propósito de vários temas que abordei no podcast; temas tão diferentes como genética, inteligência artificial, antropologia, psicologia evolutiva, doenças psiquiátricas, nutrição...e podia continuar. É, por isso, uma grande lacuna não ter ainda convidado um biólogo evolutivo para fazer uma viagem completa pelas teorias da evolução. Este episódio preenche essa lacuna. E, para compensar, não fica por aqui: no próximo episódio, o Paulo regressa para uma 2ª parte em que, depois desta panorâmica, falamos de vários outros aspectos que tornam a evolução um fenómeno tão complexo e, ao mesmo tempo, claro, fascinante.  Nesta primeira parte da conversa com o Paulo Gama Mota, fizemos, então, uma viagem pela biologia evolutiva. Falámos da teoria original de Darwin e do modo como foi complementada, já no século XX, pela visão da selecção como ocorrendo primariamente ao nível dos genes (e não apenas no indivíduo). E falámos também da chamada “selecção de grupo”, uma área controversa da Biologia, que propõe que a evolução pode também ocorrer um nível acima: ao nível dos grupos. Mas para haver selecção, não basta a um indivíduo ter maiores probabilidades de sobreviver mais tempo, tem que conseguir passar os seus genes para a geração seguinte. É aqui que entra a selecção sexual, de que falámos na última parte da conversa e que é uma das áreas de investigação do convidado. Nota: quando, a certo ponto, falamos de Egas Moniz, queremos obviamente dizer Martim Moniz.   Índice da conversa: Como funciona a evolução por selecção natural?

Richard's book is a major reimagining of how evolutionary forces work, revealing how mating preferences—what Darwin termed “the taste for the beautiful”—create an extraordinary range of ornament in the animal world. Prum introduces agency and perception as essential components for evolutionary processes and challenges the dogma that holds that natural selection explains every branch on the tree of life: which species thrive, which wither away to extinction, and what features each evolves. We ask Richard about his unpublished work on pollination and bees to understand the influences of beauty and way the selection process is shaped by the memory of things beautiful ... or sometimes dangerous.

Im November 2019 fand in Berlin das erste Literaturcamp Berlin statt. Im Zuge dieses Barcamps mit dem Themenschwerpunkt Literatur gab es abends einige Lesungen, die wir aufgezeichnet haben und im Nachgang der Veranstaltung als Podcast veröffentlichen. In der fünften Folge liest Alex Prum auf dem #litcampBER die Kurzgeschichte "Rabenfedern", die xier zusammen mit Sven Kreuer geschrieben hat: Murphy ist ein Straßenjunge in Kapstadt. Nun, nicht irgendein Straßenjunge, denn Murphy beherrscht Magie. Murphy bekommt den Auftrag von seinem Mentor (Rabe) einem Vampir nachzustellen, hat einige kleine Diskussionen mit Rabe und findet dann den Vampir, samt Opfer und einem Jäger. Da der Vampir abhaut, beschließt Murphy dem Jäger nachzustellen und herauszufinden, warum so viele Leute Interesse an diesem speziellen Vampir haben.

In this episode we sit down to discuss the very origins of beauty. Are the rather maligned "standards of beauty" imposed upon us by cultural means? Do we absorb them by being constantly bombarded by publicity and movies? As we argue, beauty is a much deeper and universal concept with a long evolutionary history. Beauty transcends human whims, it pervades the animal kingdom. Aesthetics is not the exclusive dominion of our species, in birds, it has generated an explosion of physical exhuberance and fascinating behavior. We humans have not lagged behind in the business of shaping the body and the mind of the opposite sex. From Darwin to Zahavi, from humans to birds, to chimpanzees and back to humans, here we explore what are the mechanisms through which, as Richard O. Prum asserts, "beauty happens".Enjoy!

The wings of a bird, the colors of a butterfly, and the patterns on a seashell defy the theory of Darwinian evolution. Many of us intuit, simply by looking at the splendor that permeates the natural world, that there must be some agent involved other than blind mutations or mere survival-of-the-fittest mechanisms. And now, it seems, some scientists are beginning to accept that intuition, finally admitting that beauty cannot be explained by the theory of evolution, at least as we know it. In a surprising article in The New York Times, Ferris Jabr writes about a small but growing band of scientists who argue that natural selection alone can't account for the eye-popping artistry we see in nature. He cites Yale ornithologist Richard Prum, who argues in his book, “The Evolution of Beauty,” that the elaborate plumage and outrageous mating displays of many birds confer no obvious survival advantage. Instead, they often put these birds at a disadvantage, wasting precious energy and making them stand out to predators. By all the conventional rules of evolution, such costly adaptations should have disappeared long ago. Instead, says Prum, we find them all over nature, not only in birds, which play their wings like violins, but in beetles with high-fidelity, crystalline scales, fish with flags for tails, and a whole assortment of mammals sporting over-the-top headgear. Our world is bursting with unnecessary beauty that Jabr describes as “an affront to the rules of natural selection.” Now, the traditional explanation for aesthetically awe-inspiring traits is that they show off an animal's fitness to potential mates. The parrot with the brightest plumage might have the healthiest immune system. The lion with the bushiest mane must be the most successful hunter. But more and more scientists are challenging this so-called “good genes” theory. Many natural ornaments, like the flamboyant tail of the peacock, put their owner in serious danger without necessarily signaling genetic fitness. Yet peahens (or the females) keep picking the fellahs with the biggest, brightest tails to sire their offspring. While many scientists insist that somehow a cumbersome caboose confers a survival benefit, Prum thinks that's ridiculous. Animals are beautiful not because beauty is useful, he insists, but because…they like it! Through a process called “sexual selection,” Prum and other experts now believe animals shape their own evolution, choosing features in mates that strike their fancy, and exaggerating these over countless generations to produce colors, shapes, and behaviors that dazzle human observers. Now, maybe animals do like being beautiful, but that seems as much a forced theory as the one it replaced. I'm glad some Darwinists are recognizing that survival alone can't account for the art gallery we call the natural world, but is it really a better option to look at that same art gallery and conclude that the paintings produced themselves? Well, here's another option... Recently, Evolution News reported on a peer-reviewed study by scientists in Spain that suggests that just seeing natural designs improves human engineers' creativity. The researchers created a program that “help[s] industrial designers find natural shapes that [are] both functional and aesthetically pleasing” by showing them the features of plants and animals. This is just the latest in an emerging field called “biomimetics,” which literally means “copying life.” The paper uses the term “design” no less than 130 times and “agency” over 140 times. Considering this, plus Jabr's outstanding piece in the Times, it's fair to wonder if we are “approaching the threshold of design acceptance in science.” I hope so. Faced with a natural world brimming with beauty and engineering, scientists should reconsider the dogma that all of this created itself. Instead, they should consider that the mind-boggling beauty we see around us was always intended for our eyes—designed by a master Engineer and Artist, to display His genius and glory through the language of beauty—in a language best understood not by peahens, but by people. As Andrew Peterson sings, could the beauty before us…be for us? I look forward to the day when science joins Christianity in saying “yes.”

Laurel Braitman is a historian of science and the author of Animal Madness: How Anxious Dogs, Compulsive Parrots, and Elephants in Recovery Help Us Understand Ourselves. She’s particularly interested in animals held in captivity. “If their minds aren’t stimulated and challenged they can end up with all sorts of disturbing behaviors,” she explains. Braitman wondered if music could help counter animal anxiety and depression? This question led Braitman to arrange a series of concerts for all-animal audiences. Plus, we hear from Richard Prum, an ornithologist at Yale University, who discusses his latest work — the philosophy of aesthetics. It stems from his earliest research studying small South American birds called Manakins. Manakins are known for outlandish mating displays in which males perform an elaborate dance and to Prum’s eye, the diversity and complexity of these dances could only be explained as an appeal to the birds’ aesthetic preferences. In other words, it’s art. “My hypothesis,” he explains to Kurt Andersen, “is that ornament in manakins evolves merely because it’s popular, or merely beautiful.” Learn more about your ad choices.

The places we live in shape us. I don’t care who you are how indomitable your will…your spirit is in dialogue with the place you live. For example, I live in New York City, a place I wrapped around me like a second skin when I was 18 years old. Back then New York made me feel strong, cool, infinitely removed from the suburbs I grew up in. I’ve been here for 25 years and at this point what I mostly notice is the claustrophobic public spaces, the smallness of the sky. What do you feel when you hear the word ‘Florida’? Do the pleasure centers of your brain light up, imagining palm trees and pristine beaches? Or does your amygdala kick in as you imagine the ancillary costs of a week at Disney World? My guest today is the writer Lauren Groff. In her vivid, dreamlike new book of short stories, Florida is a humid, seething organism that wants to eat you. Snake-infested. Full of sinkholes. A thing to resist, get lost in, surrender to, and sometimes, temporarily escape. Surprise conversation-starter clips in this episode: Richard O.

Deep in tropical jungles around the world are birds with a dizzying array of appearances and mating displays: Club-winged Manakins who sing with their wings, Great Argus Pheasants who dazzle prospective mates with a four-foot-wide cone of feathers covered in golden 3D spheres, Red-capped Manakins who moonwalk. In his thirty years of fieldwork, Yale University ornithologist Richard Prum has witnessed numerous such display traits that seem to contradict a classically upheld scientific dogma—that Darwin’s theory of natural selection explains every branch on the tree of life and accounts for the evolution of every trait we see in nature. Prum joined us to share findings from his book The Evolution of Beauty and dusted off Darwin’s long-neglected theory of sexual selection, in which the act of choosing a mate purely for aesthetic and pleasurable reasons is an independent engine of evolutionary change. He explored how, according to Darwin, mate choice can drive the formation of traits that are ornamental rather than purely adapted for survival, and how the sexual autonomy of the female evolves in response to male sexual control. Prum showed us how this framework grants us insight even into the evolution of human sexuality—how female preferences have changed male bodies, and even maleness itself, through evolutionary time. Join Prum for a unique scientific vision of nature’s splendor that has the potential to contribute to a more complete understanding of evolution and of ourselves. Richard O. Prum is William Robertson Coe Professor of Ornithology at Yale University, and Head Curator of Vertebrate Zoology at the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History. He has conducted field work throughout the world, and has studied fossil theropod dinosaurs in China. He received a MacArthur Fellowship in 2010.

On The Gist, no matter how well the economy goes, pundits can always tell a scary story. What do we get wrong about Darwinism? Evolutionary ornithologist Richard O. Prum says the theory was distorted by Victorian prudes. He explains why a closer look at bird sex shows us what’s really going on with adaptation and natural selection. Prum’s book is The Evolution of Beauty. In the Spiel, yes, “unindictable” would mean the president could commit any crime he wants, even the colorful ones. But let’s not get carried away.

In The Evolution of Beauty, Richard O. Prum's award-winning career as an ornithologist and his lifelong passion for bird-watching come together in a thrilling intellectual adventure. Scientific dogma holds that every detail of an animal's mating displays—every spot on the peacock's tail—is an advertisement of its genetic material superiority to potential mates. But thirty years of research and fieldwork around the world led Prum to question this idea. Deep in tropical jungles are birds with dizzying array of plumages, songs, and mating displays: Club-winged Manakins who sing with their wings, Great Argus pheasants who dazzle prospective mates with a four-foot-wide cone of feathers covered in golden 3D spheres, and Red-capped Manakins who moonwalk. Many such traits struck Prum as out-landishly unlikely to provide practical information.

Deep in tropical jungles around the world are birds with a dizzying array of appearances and mating displays—from pheasants with 3D feathers to moonwalking manakins—traits that seem disconnected from selection for individual survival. Culminating 30 years of fieldwork, Richard Prum, the Head Curator of Vertebrate Zoology at the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History and a world-renowned ornithologist, revives Darwin’s long-neglected theory of sexual selection in which the act of choosing a mate for purely aesthetic reasons—for the mere pleasure of it—is an independent engine of evolutionary change. Sharing from his latest work, The Evolution of Beauty, Prum presents a unique scientific vision for how nature’s splendor contributes to a more complete understanding of evolution and of ourselves in a conversation with evolutionary biologist Amy Parish.For photos from the program, click here. 

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, University of Virginia roommates Eric Prum & Josh Williams spent their collegiate years infusing bourbon with peaches, their apartment strewn with mason jars in the process. What was part preoccupation, lead to a professional career in catering; Williams attended culinary school in Italy, while Prum furthered his studies in design and manufacturing. From that first joint venture, they created W&P Design, a food & beverage company that has made over 200 original products in the barware space. It all started with the Mason Shaker, the base of which is literally a mason jar with a screw on shaker top. Aimed to demystify the art of crafting great cocktails, they followed this up by "Shake", their first in series of service book titles now published in-house by Dovetail Press. This dynamic duo also constructed Carry On Cocktail Kits (which are TSA & FAA compliant at 30,000 feet), and continue to improve drink aesthetics, and functionality, whether at a home bar, or on the road.

In this episode, we speak with Anne Johnson Prum, producer, cinematographer and founder of Cone Flower Studios. Anne has produced a number of films for NATURE including "Hummingbirds: Magic in the Air" in 2010 and the Emmy-nominated mini-series "Animal Homes". Her latest, "Super Hummingbirds" airs on PBS October 12 (Check local listings.)
