In this episode of ART IS CHANGE, theater artist and educator Derek Goldman shares how performance can become a civic practice — not simply entertainment, but a way for people to reconnect with themselves, each other, and the deeper responsibilities of citizenship.This episode is part of a special Art in Action series we're producing in partnership with the Charles F. Kettering Foundation's Democracy and the Arts program. In these episodes we'll be speaking with artists, cultural organizers, and arts leaders who are navigating and challenging current efforts to limit free creative expression and free speech. Together, we'll explore what freedom of expression means in practice, not as an abstract right, but as a lived responsibility at the heart of democratic life.Drawing on his In Your Shoes™ methodology, Goldman explores how storytelling and embodied listening can open surprising pathways for mitigating polarization, isolation, and fear.At the center of the conversation is a deceptively simple process: Two people talk deeply with one another, transcribe the conversation, and then publicly perform each other's words. The result is not debate, but encounter. From collaborations between conservative Christian and progressive theater students to work in prisons, hospitals, public health spaces, and global conflict zones, Goldman describes how theater can function as “relational fitness” — strengthening the neglected civic muscles of empathy, attention, and human recognition.This episode explores three interconnected ideas:How the In Your Shoes™ process transforms strangers into collaborators through radical listening and embodied storytelling,Why Goldman believes democracy depends not only on freedom of speech, but on the freedom to speak vulnerably and be heard without fear, andHow artists can work across sectors — from diplomacy to public health to incarceration settings — to rebuild trust, connection, and civic imagination in communities.Notable MentionsPeopleDerek Goldman – Laboratory for Global Performance & PoliticsTheater director, educator, and co-founding director of Georgetown University's Laboratory for Global Performance & Politics. Goldman is the creator of the In Your Shoes™ methodology and the co-leader of the Art of Care initiative discussed in this episode.James Thompson – University of Manchester / Care Aesthetics ResearchApplied theater scholar and author whose work on care aesthetics explores the artistic dimensions of caregiving, humanitarian performance, and social practice.Thornton Wilder – Author of Our TownPulitzer Prize-winning playwright whose classic meditation on everyday life and human presence became an unexpected touchstone in Goldman's work with incarcerated students.Studs Terkel – Oral Historian and BroadcasterLegendary oral historian and radio producer whose conversational storytelling approach echoes through Goldman's ensemble-based methods of testimony and listening.Tony Kushner Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright referenced in relation to actor Tom Story's reflections on drawing strength from performing the role of Prior Walter in Angels in America during his own medical recovery.Organizations & ProgramsCenter for the Study of Art & CommunityThe home of ART IS CHANGE, dedicated to research, training, and storytelling at the intersection of arts, democracy, community development, and social change.The Charles F.

The Cost of a 5-Day Trip to Iceland. Local Expert Advice on how to budget for it.

All Things Iceland Podcast

Along with hearing about volcanoes, waterfalls, black sand beaches, and gorgeous landscapes, one of the biggest things people associate with Iceland is how expensive it is. And honestly, that conversation comes up constantly. It's one of the most common questions when I am helping travelers planning their first trip here. Iceland has built a reputation online for being adventurous and fascinating, but also very expensive. And to be fair, it absolutely can be. Publications like Travel + Leisure have even ranked Iceland among the most expensive travel destinations in the world. From my perspective as someone who has lived in Iceland since 2016 and helped thousands of travelers through my podcast, social media channels, private consultations, and my in-depth video course, The Savvy Traveler's Guide to Iceland, what stands out to me is this: most people don't create a realistic budget for Iceland. Inside This 5-Day Iceland Budget Guide Knowing where to start with Budgeting for 5-days in Iceland Why the Season You Visit Changes Your Entire Budget What Kind of Iceland Experience Do You Want? Flights to Iceland Accommodations: The Biggest Budget Variable Rental Cars & Iceland’s New Road Tax How to Save on Renting a Car and Camper Van in Iceland The Hidden Iceland Expense Most Travelers Forget: Parking Fees Food Costs in Iceland Activities & Tours: What to Expect Use Discount Codes Strategically to Save Money Unexpected Costs Realistic 5-Day Iceland Budgets by Season Winter Budget Breakdown Shoulder Season Budget Breakdown Summer Budget Breakdown Knowing Where to Start with Budgeting a 5-day Trip for Iceland I think that people don’t always create a realistic budget for Iceland because they don’t know where to start. Travelers are often unsure about  how much to set aside for accommodations, activities, rental cars, food, parking, or even how much the season changes everything. So instead of just throwing random numbers at you, I want to walk you through how I would personally budget for a 5-day trip to Iceland depending on your travel style, the season, and the choices you make while you're here. Because the reality is that a 5-day trip to Iceland could cost one person around $1,300 and another person over $4,000 — and both of them could still have incredible experiences. The Season You Visit Iceland Changes Everything If there's one thing I really want travelers to understand before budgeting for Iceland, it's this: the season you visit impacts almost every single part of your trip. That includes accommodations, rental cars, flights, activities, and even how you spend your time while traveling. I'm honestly not exaggerating when I say that the exact same hotel room can literally double or triple in price depending on the month. For example, a hotel room that costs around $120 per night in winter can easily jump to $250–350 per night in summer. Same room. Same location. Same hotel. The only thing that changed is the season. Now, I don't say that to scare anyone. There are also unique events that can create unusually high prices, like the 2026 total solar eclipse in Iceland, where some accommodations are charging thousands of dollars per night because demand is so intense. That's not the normal reality for Iceland travel, but it does show how much seasonality and demand affect pricing here. Rental cars work exactly the same way. In summer, demand skyrockets, and travelers are often shocked by how quickly prices increase if they wait too long to book. What Kind of Iceland Experience Do You Want? Another huge part of budgeting for Iceland is understanding the type of trip you actually want to have. I think social media sometimes makes this harder because people see inspiration online and accidentally start comparing their budget to someone else's completely different trip. Maybe you want to see the Northern Lights, but you're planning to come in summer, which, by the way, isn't possible because the sun barely sets. Maybe you want to base yourself in Reykjavík and do day trips, or maybe you want to road trip around the country and stay in multiple places. Perhaps you want to rent a camper van or stay in luxury hotels for part of the trip because you're celebrating something special. All of those decisions affect your budget. One thing I regularly help people understand during my private video consultations is that Iceland often looks much smaller on the map than it actually is once you start driving around it. For example, if someone wants to stay in Reykjavík the whole trip but also drive to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, I explain that this is about a five-hour drive one way. That's ten hours of driving in a single day before you even stop at waterfalls, black sand beaches, or anywhere else along the route. That's why route planning matters so much in Iceland, not only for your sanity but also for your budget. Flights to Iceland – Cost per Season Flights to Iceland fluctuate constantly depending on the season, where you're flying from, how early you book, and global fuel prices. For winter, flights are often around $400–700 roundtrip, while summer flights can range from $600–1,200 or even higher. And honestly, airfare pricing lately has become even harder to predict because of global fuel market instability and international conflicts affecting energy prices. Those things trickle into airline pricing too, so whenever I give ranges for Iceland travel costs, I always want people to understand that these numbers are based on averages and trends, not guarantees. One thing I personally recommend is signing up for airline email lists, like Icelandair or Delta Air Lines, because they regularly send flight sales. I also use Google Flights to track pricing trends, and you'd honestly be surprised how much prices can fluctuate from one week to another. Accommodations in Iceland: The Biggest Budget Variable Accommodation is usually where people underestimate costs the most. For budget accommodations like hostels, guesthouses, smaller rooms, or shared bathroom situations, you're generally looking at around $400–700 total for five nights in winter and about $700–1,400+ in summer. For mid-range accommodations, such as private hotel rooms, apartments, or guesthouses with private bathrooms, winter pricing is usually somewhere around $700–1,400 for five nights, while summer can jump to $1,200–2,000+. And yes, summer pricing really can get that high. If you're considering a camper van, that can sometimes help reduce accommodation costs, though prices vary dramatically depending on the vehicle and the season. I always recommend booking accommodations as early as possible for summer travel. Honestly, if you can plan a year in advance, that's ideal. Six months minimum is usually what I suggest if possible. Rental Cars Cost & Iceland's New Road Tax If you're planning to leave Reykjavík, I strongly recommend considering a rental car because it gives you so much flexibility. Winter rental prices for a smaller car are often around $120–150 per day, while SUVs are closer to $170–180 per day. In summer, smaller cars can easily be $150–200+, and SUVs can go even higher depending on the size and capability of the vehicle. For a five-day trip, many travelers spend somewhere between $600–1,200+ once you include gas and insurance. And there's another thing travelers now need to budget for. Starting in 2026, Iceland implemented a kilometer-based road tax system that applies to vehicles, including rental cars. Iceland Kilometer Fee Information Most travelers won't calculate this themselves because rental companies typically include it either as a per-kilometer fee or as a flat daily charge. For example, Go Car Rental Iceland currently charges approximately €10.50 per day as a flat mandatory road tax fee. Fuel prices in Iceland have lowered somewhat since the road tax was introduced, but global events still impact fuel pricing significantly. How to Save on Renting a Car & Camper Van in Iceland Through my discount links with Go Car Rental Iceland and Go Campers, you can save 7% on your rental. Go Car also includes free 4G WiFi, while Go Campers includes a free sleeping bag. And honestly, the WiFi is incredibly useful because you can check weather, road conditions, maps, email, WhatsApp, and social media while driving around Iceland You can head to gorentals.is/allthingsiceland Once you enter your travel dates, the 7% discount is automatically applied. For Go Car:When you get to the extras section, select 4G WiFi. You'll see the price stays the same, even though it has been added.  For Go Campers:Choose a sleeping bag under the “extras” section, and same thing, the total price won't increase. And just so you know, using my link gives me a small commission at no extra cost to you. It's one of the ways you're supporting All Things Iceland and the content I create. So thank you for that. The Hidden Expense in Iceland that Most Travelers Forget: Parking Fees Many waterfalls, black sand beaches, scenic viewpoints, geothermal areas, and hiking spots now charge for parking. This is especially in popular areas like the Golden Circle, South Coast, Snæfellsnes Peninsula, and downtown Reykjavík. I've seen this change a lot over the years since I moved here in 2016. There were many places that used to have completely free parking, but because of the increase in tourism, road maintenance, parking lot maintenance, and of course landowners wanting to make money, parking fees have become much more common. I usually recommend budgeting around $80 USD total for parking during a 5-day trip depending on how much driving you're doing. You can also use the Parka app to look up parking fees in advance, which can help a lot with planning. If you're unsure where to go or how to organize your route efficiently, I highly recommend checking out My Iceland Map on Rexby. It includes 350+ personally recommended locations around Iceland that I've visited and enjoyed myself. Food Costs in Iceland Food absolutely adds up in Iceland if you eat every meal out. A casual restaurant meal is usually around $20–35 per person, while a nicer dinner can easily be $40–80+. Coffee and a pastry are often around $10–15, and cocktails in Reykjavík can easily cost over $20 each. For five days, I'd say a budget traveler who cooks some meals or makes sandwiches could probably spend around $150–300, while a mid-range traveler who eats out more regularly could spend around $300–700+. One of my favorite budget hacks is booking accommodations with breakfast included. Then you can eat a larger breakfast, make sandwiches or grab snacks for later, and only pay for dinner out. For groceries, Bónus is generally the cheapest option, while Krónan is another great alternative. And surprisingly, IKEA Iceland is one of the cheapest places to sit down and eat a full meal in Iceland. I’m not suggesting that you eat at IKEA every day but I just think it is fun to share that random information. What to Budget for Activities & Tours in Iceland This category really depends on what type of traveler you are. Some people are perfectly happy exploring waterfalls, scenic drives, geothermal areas, and hiking trails, which can keep costs relatively low. Others want glacier hikes, snorkeling, whale watching, ice caves, and snowmobiling. All of these activities can add up quickly. The Blue Lagoon and Sky Lagoon are generally around $100–150+, glacier hikes are around $100–200+, whale watching tours around $118–150+, and ice cave tours can range from $150–300+ depending on the experience. One of my favorite lower-cost alternatives to the major lagoons is going to a local swimming pool like Laugardalslaug. It has Olympic-sized pools, hot tubs, a cold plunge, slides, and it gives you a chance to experience Icelandic swimming pool culture alongside locals for a fraction of the cost of the lagoons. And if you love museums, there are actually certain times of year when you can visit many for free during events like Winter Lights Festival in February and Menningarnótt (Culture Night) in August. Use Discount Codes & Links to Save Money in Iceland One of the easiest ways to save money in Iceland is by not paying full price when you don't have to. My free Iceland Discount Code Bundle includes discounts for rental cars, camper vans, tours, activities, hotels, outerwear, and more. Most tour discounts are around 10% off, and when you apply those savings across multiple activities, it really does make a noticeable difference in your final trip budget. Always Leave Room for Unexpected Costs This is honestly one of my biggest Iceland budgeting tips overall: always leave room for flexibility. Weather changes quickly in Iceland, and road conditions can shift plans unexpectedly. That could mean rerouting, staying somewhere an extra night, changing accommodations, or adjusting activities because of storms or warnings. Whenever possible, I recommend keeping a few hundred dollars of flexibility in your budget if you can. It just makes the trip feel significantly less stressful. Realistic 5-Day Iceland Budget by Season For winter travel between November and March (excluding holidays), a budget traveler is usually looking at around $1,300–2,000, while a mid-range traveler is closer to $1,800–2,700. Winter tends to be cheaper because hotel demand is lower, rental cars are less expensive, and there are fewer crowds. The trade-off, of course, is less daylight and more unpredictable weather. For summer, budget travelers are usually spending around $1,800–3,000, while mid-range travelers are closer to $2,500–4,000+. Summer costs rise because of peak tourism demand, midnight sun season, easier travel conditions, Highlands access, and limited accommodations. The biggest reason I wanted to make this episode was honestly to help people manage expectations. Iceland can absolutely be expensive. But once you understand how seasonality works, where your biggest expenses are, and how to budget realistically, it becomes much easier to create a trip that works for your finances and travel style. And honestly, being informed ahead of time makes Iceland feel so much less overwhelming. The Random Fact of the Episode Did you know that Iceland has around 41 active volcanic systems — including volcanoes beneath the ocean? According to Náttúra Íslands (Natt.is), a volcano is considered “active” if it has erupted within the last 11,000–12,000 years, which is actually pretty recent in geological terms. The most active volcanic system in Iceland is called Grímsvötn, located in Southeast Iceland. It has erupted on average about once every decade over the last thousand years. Meanwhile, Iceland's largest volcanic system is Bárðarbunga, and many of the country's enormous lava fields were created from eruptions there. What's also fascinating is that volcanic systems in Iceland are often made up of: a central volcano, plus a fissure swarm, all connected to a shared underground magma chamber deep within the Earth's crust. Which honestly explains why Iceland can sometimes feel like you're standing on another planet. Icelandic Word of the Episode ferðakostnaður — travel expenses or cost of travel Pronunciation: FEHR-tha-kost-na-thur This felt like the perfect word for this episode because honestly… that's exactly what we've been talking about the entire time.  In Icelandic: ferð = trip/journey kostnaður = cost/expense So together: ferðakostnaður = the cost of traveling. Example: “Ferðakostnaður á Íslandi getur verið hár á sumrin.” “Travel costs in Iceland can be high during the summer.” And trust me… Icelanders definitely understand this too, especially when traveling around their own country during peak season.

What happens when Artists are embedded inside the systems that run the world? --- hospitals, railroads, steel mills, shipping companies, government ministries... In this episode, we explore the the strange, funny, visionary, and unexpectedly influential story of Barbara Steveni and the Artist Placement Group — a loose coalition of British artists who, beginning in the late 1960s, attempted something radical: placing artists inside the machinery of everyday institutional life not to decorate systems… but to complicate them.This show explores how artists embedded themselves inside mega-corporations and government agencies — often producing confusion, resistance, revelation, and occasionally profound organizational insight. And:* Why artists may function best not at the edges of society, but deep inside the systems shaping public life.How attention, metaphor, and observation can help institutions become more self aware and better run. * Why imagination inside organizations is often disruptive, inconvenient, and deeply necessary.Notable MentionsPeopleBarbara Steveni — British artist, organizer, and co-founder of the Artist Placement Group whose pioneering work embedded artists inside industrial, governmental, and civic systems as catalysts for institutional reflection and imagination.John Latham — Influential conceptual artist and APG collaborator whose work challenged conventional ideas about institutions, perception, time, and social systems.Ian Breakwell — British artist, filmmaker, and diarist associated with APG whose observational work explored institutional life, mental health systems, and everyday social rituals.Mierle Laderman Ukeles — Maintenance artist whose long collaboration with the New York City Department of Sanitation transformed public understanding of labor, infrastructure, and civic care.David Whyte — Poet and organizational thinker known for bringing metaphor, reflection, and human inquiry into corporate and institutional environments.Organizations & InitiativesArtist Placement Group (APG) — Radical British initiative founded in the late 1960s to place artists inside corporations, industries, and government agencies not to decorate systems, but to deepen and complicate them.Organisation and Imagination (O+I) — The later evolution of APG, continuing its investigation into the relationship between imagination, institutions, governance, and organizational culture.Intermedia Arts — Influential Minneapolis arts organization that helped pioneer artist/community development collaborations and embedded civic arts practice in the United States.The Hayward Gallery — London arts venue that hosted APG's influential 1971 exhibition Art & Economics, bringing artists, industrialists, and public officials into direct dialogue.Projects, Concepts & EventsArt & Economics / INN70 — Landmark APG exhibition and public experiment exploring relationships between artists, economics, bureaucracy, and institutional life.Incidental Person — John Latham's concept describing artists embedded within institutions as independent observers capable of perceiving what bureaucratic systems themselves no longer notice.John Latham and the Scottish Bing Projects — Exploration of Latham's visionary proposal to reconceive Scottish industrial spoil heaps as cultural memory and environmental sculpture.The Institution — Ian Breakwell's work emerging from placements inside psychiatric hospitals, examining institutional systems, observation, and human vulnerability.Publications & ResearchThe Artist Placement Group and the Industry of Art — Major essay tracing APG's philosophy, institutional placements, and long-term influence on socially engaged and cross-sector artistic practice.Barbara Steveni: I Find Myself — Steveni's memoir and archival reflection on APG, institutional imagination, and artist-led systems intervention.Artist Placement Group Chronology — Historical timeline documenting APG placements, exhibitions, collaborations, and policy interventions.Artforum — “Rate of Return: The Artist Placement Group” — Contemporary reassessment of APG's influence on institutional critique, social practice, and embedded artistic work.Acknowledgements (FreeSound.org)Dream-Drifting by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/665193/ -- License: Attribution 4.0NixenoFX - short music jingle and start and end music.mp3 by nixeno -- https://freesound.org/s/427552/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Marlow and the DownUnder by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/719007/ -- License: Attribution NonCommercial 4.0September 21 Equinox by audiomirage -- https://freesound.org/s/827532/ -- License: Attribution 4.0AMB_pub_small_busy.wav by matucha -- https://freesound.org/s/189876/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Hello User: Bright Cheery Intro Music by jjmarsan -- https://freesound.org/s/476070/ -- License: Attribution 4.0Podcast 27_Crackle by PodcastAC -- https://freesound.org/s/720338/ -- License: Attribution 4.0*******Art Is CHANGE is a podcast that chronicles the power of art and community transformation, providing a platform for activist artists to share their experiences and gain the skills and strategies they need to thrive as agents of social change.Through compelling conversations with artist activists, artivists, and cultural organizers, the podcast explores how art and activism intersect to fuel cultural transformation and drive meaningful change.

The Chafetz Chaim influenced the Jewish People in many ways, among them through his Yeshiva in Radin and through the many popular books which he authored. Through his Yeshiva he influenced generations of students, while hiring a staff of Roshei Yeshiva par excellence. Rav Moshe Londinski, Rav Naftali Trop, Rav Yerucham Levovitz, the Chafetz Chaim's own sons in law Rav Hirsh Levinson and Rav Mendel Zaks, to mention a few. Though the Yeshiva experience a bit of downturn with passing of the old generation, the name lived on in other Yeshivas founded to carry his memory. The Mishna Berura was the Chafetz Chaim's famous work, which had an impact on halacha across the Jewish world and increased in influence over time. The impetus of his writing was to fill a need and reflected on the great responsibility he felt towards his people. Such was his work Machaneh Yisrael geared towards Jewish soldiers in the Czar's army. Nidchei Yisroel was a companion for the Jewish immigrant, while other pamphlets were geared towards Jewish women.

The Tsar's Generals and the Press – Russian Military Journalism in the Reform Era

Explaining History (explaininghistory) (explaininghistory)

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we explore a little‑known but revealing corner of Russian history: the military press during the reign of Alexander II.After the humiliating defeat in the Crimean War, it was clear that Russia's army – and the autocracy that sustained it – needed fundamental change. Alexander II, who came to power as the war dragged on, embarked on a series of "Great Reforms", most famously the emancipation of the serfs in 1861. But reform was always a balancing act between modernisation and the preservation of autocratic power.Nowhere were these tensions sharper than in the military press. Historian E. Willis Brooks, in an essay from the collection *Reforming the Tsar's Army*, examines how War Minister D. A. Milyutin used newspapers and journals to communicate new ideas to officers and conscripts – while struggling to control the very voices he had unleashed.Publications like *Ruski Invalid* (The Russian Veteran) and *Voyeny Sbornik* (Military Review) were meant to be loyal instruments of state policy. But as they sought readers and relevance, their editors – some of them former utopian socialists – began to clash with government censors and even the Tsar's ministers. The result was a chaotic, semi‑autonomous press that both advanced reform and exposed its contradictions.We look at the founding of new military journals, the explosion in readership, and the uneasy partnership between Milyutin and his old radical acquaintance Colonel Pisarevskii, who was given the extraordinary task of running a government newspaper as a capitalist enterprise. Their struggle over "official" and "unofficial" opinions reveals the limits of censorship – even in an autocracy.Topics covered:- The Crimean War and Russia's military humiliation- Alexander II's Great Reforms- War Minister D. A. Milyutin- The military press: *Ruski Invalid*, *Voyeny Sbornik*- Censorship and the "epoch of sensorial terror"- The experiment of semi‑commercial government journalism- Pisarevskii, utopian socialism, and the dangers of editorial independence- How state‑led reform struggles with public communicationIf you enjoy the podcast, please consider supporting us – we are migrating from Patreon to Substack.

If you don't already know who Steph Abegg is, I can almost certainly say that you've used her work. Her detailed route topos, trip reports, and beta overlays appear all over the internet covering climbs from the North Cascades to Red Rocks. For nearly 20 years, she's been quietly building one of the most comprehensive free climbing resources on the internet—not for profit, not for sponsorship, but because she genuinely loves documenting routes and helping people have better days in the mountains. She's what the climbing community needs more of: someone creating value without asking for anything in return.This is Steph's second time on the show. Three years ago, she had just landed a data science job and bought a house in Estes Park. Now she's unemployed, living in a Transit van, and writing a book of her favorite climbs across North America. What happened in between is a story about rejection, redirection, and choosing passion over security—even when it doesn't make financial sense.#femaleclimber #rockclimbingThanks to our sponsors!LIVSN DesignsCheckout Their Ecotrek Trail Pants HEREUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for an extra 15% OFF Your OrderHelp Support The Show & Unlock The Ad-Free PodcastResourcesSteph's Website (Donate HERE)Steph's IG

PR becoming a critical strategy for visibility. In this episode, Morgan Norris, VP of Marketing at TREW, breaks down why PR matters more than ever and how to properly prepare subject matter experts and executives for media opportunities.One of the biggest shifts driving renewed interest in PR is the evolution of search and AI. Traditional website-first strategies are no longer enough. Today, brand visibility increasingly depends on being featured in trusted third-party sources like technical and trade publications. These outlets not only influence human audiences but also shape how AI models surface and prioritize information.To take advantage of this, companies need to rethink how they prepare their spokespeople. For SMEs, success starts with thoughtful media training. That includes providing briefing documents with background on the publication, the editor, and likely interview angles. Even a short practice session can help reduce nerves. SMEs should come equipped with real-world examples: customer stories, performance data, or application use cases to bring technical concepts to life.On the other hand, executive interviews require a different level of preparation. Leaders must align on what information can be shared publicly, especially when it comes to company data. Morgan recommends preparing key facts in advance and developing three core stories executives can consistently return to during interviews. This ensures messaging stays focused, strategic, and impactful.Across both groups, one theme stands out: consistency. Without clear, aligned messaging, PR efforts aren't as effective. ResourcesConnect with Morgan on LinkedInConnect with Wendy on LinkedInRelated article: News Releases in B2B Tech: Why They Matter and How to Do Them RightRelated episode: How B2B PR Should Fit into Your Integrated Marketing StrategyRelated episode: A Technical Editor-in-Chief's Perspectives on PR, Hot Industry Topics, and AIDownload the News Release TemplateLearn more about TREW's PR and Thought Leadership Services

Success is so strongly sold to you in academia.It's part of the culture.Part of the myth.We're told there is one path:success → happiness → utility → more success.And business schools may be the purest version of this belief.Everything becomes about success.Publications.P-values below 0.05.Getting it “through.”As if one number can explain a complex world.But the older I get, the more this feels wrong.Success often signals luck, not mastery.Complex systems don't resolve into single outcomes.We simplify because we need stories, not because the stories are true.Pick five people at random.Call them “successful.”Ask them why.They'll explain it beautifully.Almost no one will say: I don't know.That's the uncomfortable part.Much of life is randomness.Where you were born.Who raised you.Which teachers supported you.Which doors happened to be open.So when we say “only success matters,” we erase all of that.And real people feel this instinctively.Outside academia, this logic often makes no sense at all.Some practical truths I've learned:• Achievement is a weak proxy for meaning• Success metrics hide enormous luck• Simplifying the world doesn't make it simpler• Fulfillment lasts longer than outcomes• You don't need permission to live wellIf this helped you reframe even one quiet doubt,share it with someone who's been measuring themselves too harshly.You're already enough.

What use is art makingwhen freedom is under pressure?From the Center for the Study of Art and Community? This is Art is Change, a chronicle of art and social change where activist artists and cultural organizers share the strategies and skills they need to thrive as creative community leaders. My name is Bill ClevelandThis episode is part of a special Art In Action series we're producing in partnership with the Charles F. Kettering Foundation Democracy and the Arts program. In these episodes, we'll be speaking with artists, cultural organizers and arts leaders who are navigating and challenging current efforts to to limit free creative expression and free speech.Together, we'll explore what freedom of expression means in practice, not as an abstract right, but as a lived responsibility at the heart of democratic life.This show features my conversation with painter, organizer, educator and “root waterer” Jordan Seaberry,about what happens when art moves beyond decoration and entertainment and becomes a powerful civic practice for listening, organizing and building people power. Jordan's work, which spans painting, policy, comics, teaching and movement building, is all grounded in the conviction that human creativity is not extra.Along the way, we follow Jordan's journey from the south side of Chicago to the Rhode Island School of Design, otherwise known as RISD, to Oregon organizing around prisoners rights, studying at Roger Williams University School of Law, and helping lead the US Department of Art and Culture.In it we will learn about:* How Jordan's life as a painter and organizer came together from RISD disillusionment to grassroots organizing, law school teaching and cultural strategy.* Why listening is central to both art art and organizing. Whether the canvas becomes an ear or an organizer helps someone rehear their own life with dignity* How artists can generate real civic power by joining movements, helping build alternative systems, and challenging dominant institutions from both inside and the street.Notable MentionsPeopleJordan Seaberry — Painter, organizer, educator, and co-director at the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture, whose practice bridges painting, policy, comics, and movement work.Adam Horowitz — Founding leader in the creation of the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture's people-powered national framework.Arlene Goldbard — Writer, speaker, and longtime cultural activist who helped shape USDAC's founding vision.Gabriel Baez — Cultural organizer and early USDAC leader involved in its national development.Jonathan Highfield — RISD faculty member and an important mentor in Jordan's political and intellectual formation.Carlton Turner — Artist, organizer, and co-founder of Sipp Culture, building rural cultural infrastructure in Mississippi.Brandi Turner — Co-director of Sipp Culture and key partner in its community-rooted cultural work.Dan Denvir — Host of The Dig, the podcast Jordan names as a useful guide in making sense of the current political moment.Nadine Bloch — Activist, trainer, and creative strategist with Beautiful Trouble, mentioned in connection with artists against authoritarianism work.Michelle Alexander — Civil rights advocate and author of The New Jim Crow, one of the books Jordan cites as deeply influential.Richard Powers — Novelist and author of Bewilderment and The Overstory, both named in Jordan's recommendations.Jon Fogel — Author of Punishment-Free Parenting, which Jordan connects to broader questions of punishment and power.Kathryn Bigelow — Director of A House of Dynamite, the film Jordan references in thinking about the state and the individual.OrganizationsU.S. Department of Arts and Culture — A people-powered, non-governmental “performance piece” that prefigures what a real federal department of arts and culture could do in support of cultural democracy.Charles F.

Veins of Influence: Colonial Sri Lanka (Ceylon) in early Photographs and Collections by Shalini Amerasinghe Ganendra (Neptune Publications, 2023) is a pioneering monograph that brings a rich array of early images (specifically of Sri Lanka (Ceylon)) into the global discourse of photography, pairing a striking lens of visual appreciation with distinctly humanizing perspectives. In the context of colonial photography, “veins of influence” delineates the circulatory pathways through which images operate, tracing not only their material production and dissemination, but also the curatorial, creative, cultural, epistemic narratives they generate across time. The over 450 images featured are from the: Royal Collection Trust; Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford; Royal Commonwealth Society, Cambridge University; Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland; Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; Rothschild Archives and, also by the famed Victorian photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron. (A little known fact is that Cameron spent the last 4 years of life in Ceylon and died there.) In addition to these UK collections, this publication includes early photographs from important local family collections and period publications.

Veins of Influence: Colonial Sri Lanka (Ceylon) in early Photographs and Collections by Shalini Amerasinghe Ganendra (Neptune Publications, 2023) is a pioneering monograph that brings a rich array of early images (specifically of Sri Lanka (Ceylon)) into the global discourse of photography, pairing a striking lens of visual appreciation with distinctly humanizing perspectives. In the context of colonial photography, “veins of influence” delineates the circulatory pathways through which images operate, tracing not only their material production and dissemination, but also the curatorial, creative, cultural, epistemic narratives they generate across time. The over 450 images featured are from the: Royal Collection Trust; Pitt Rivers Museum, University of Oxford; Royal Commonwealth Society, Cambridge University; Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland; Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; Rothschild Archives and, also by the famed Victorian photographer, Julia Margaret Cameron. (A little known fact is that Cameron spent the last 4 years of life in Ceylon and died there.)

This episode features a conversation with four colleagues involved in the International Consortium for Indian Ocean Studies (ICIOS). Mahmood Kooria is Lecturer in the History of the Indian Ocean World at the University of Edinburgh. His research interests are in the premodern Indian Ocean world, global history of law, Islamic cultures, matrilineal-matriarchal communities, Afro-Asian connections, and manuscript traditions. He is the author of the book Islamic Law in Circulation, published by Cambridge University Press in 2024. Tom Hoogervorst is a professor at KITLV. His research explores human connections and cultural contact through food and language. His doctoral work traced Southeast Asian influence on the early Indian Ocean world through loanwords and linguistic borrowing. His most recent book is Language Ungoverned: Indonesia's Chinese Print Entrepreneurs, 1911–1949, published in 2021 by Cornell University Press. In 2024, he launched a project on the culinary influence of early communities with roots in the Indonesian archipelago in Sri Lanka, South Africa, and Suriname. Ariel C. Lopez is Associate Professor and Assistant to the Dean for Research, Publications, and Information at the Asian Center, University of the Philippines, Diliman. His areas of interest include Indonesian Studies, Colonial and Maritime History, Philippine History and Southeast Asian History. He is the author of the book Philippine Confluence: Iberian, Chinese and Islamic Currents, C. 1500-1800, published by Leiden University Press in 2020. Finally, Aireen Grace Andal is a researcher at the Airlangga Institute for Indian Ocean Crossroads, Airlangga University, and she is currently a Research Fellow at the International Institute for Asian Studies. She is a cultural geographer whose work focuses especially on children's experiences of – and engagements with – cities, and she also researches island geographies and peripheral urban transformations. The primary focus of discussion is the newly relaunched International Consortium for Indian Ocean Studies, which builds upon earlier initiatives started in Leiden nearly a decade ago. In introducing the new consortium, the guests also discuss the importance of collaborative, multi-centered, and multi-vocal approaches to research, and they reflect on how an Indian Ocean perspective can disrupt and unsettle the traditional cartographies inherited from earlier area studies divisions.

When Shogun was released last year on Hulu, it featured a great cast, spectacular visuals, and a gripping story. It was a commercial and critical success on release, and again when awards season came around. So of course, academic historians fretted. Were they concerned that it painted sixteenth-century Japan as another Game of Thrones (with more ninjas and fewer dragons)? Maybe a little. But most scholars were anxious because they understood how important the show would be, how profound an impact it would have, for years to come, on the public's perception of Japanese culture and history — all the more so because the story captures a moment of extraordinary significance, in such vivid detail, on such a vast canvas. In this talk, David Spafford, Associate Professor of Premodern Japanese History at the University of Pennsylvania, takes a closer look at the complexities of the period and unpacks why this particular moment in history matters so much — and how the hit Shogun series does (or doesn't) help us understand it. David Spafford was born and raised in Rome and first moved to the States to earn his PhD. He is currently Associate Professor of Premodern Japanese History in the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at the University of Pennsylvania, where he teaches courses on samurai and the invention of the Way of the Warrior, on early modern urbanization, and on premodern law and violence. He is the author of A Sense of Place: The Political Landscape in Late Medieval Japan (2013), which explores the resilience of medieval regional identities and cultural geographies during the early Warring States period. In recent years, he has written about the role and boundaries of kinship in warrior society between 1450 and 1650. He is currently completing a short monograph on the writings of a sixteenth-century widow, known to us only as Jukeini, the only woman to rule a warrior domain. Paul Atkins is professor of Japanese in the Department of Asian Languages and Literature at the University of Washington, Seattle, where he teaches and writes about the literature, drama, and culture of medieval Japan. He holds a Ph.D. in Japanese from Stanford University. Professor Atkins was awarded the William F. Sibley Memorial Translation Prize by the University of Chicago in 2011 and the Kyoko Selden Memorial Translation Prize by Cornell University in 2021 for his translations of classical Japanese texts into English. Publications include the monographs Teika: The Life and Works of a Medieval Japanese Poet (University of Hawai'i Press, 2017) and Revealed Identity: The Noh Plays of Komparu Zenchiku (Center of Japanese Studies, University of Michigan, 2006) as well as a number of articles. Presented by Town Hall Seattle and Washin Kai. This event is sponsored by the UW Center for Japanese Studies and the UW Department of Asian Languages and Literature.

What does it mean to be queer in a society often defined by its rigid traditions, colonial scars, and rapid neoliberal transformation? In this episode of Korea Deconstructed, we sit down with Dr. Samuel Perry from Brown University to challenge the common misconception that LGBT issues are a "new" or "Western" import to the Korean peninsula. Through his new anthology, A Century of Queer Korean Fiction, Dr. Perry reveals a long-standing tradition of diverse sexualities and gender expressions that have navigated censorship, war, and dictatorship for over a hundred years. We explore the coding of literature during oppressive eras, the dangers of using Western yardsticks to measure Korean resistance, and how the rise of neoliberalism has impacted social visibility versus true acceptance. From figures like Yi Gwangsu to the gritty, three-dimensional characters of modern writers like Sang Young Park, we explore a literary history that is as complex but, at the same time, beautiful.

A specialist in Japanese and Korean history, culture, and literature, he is the author of Recasting Red Culture in Proletarian Japan: Childhood, Korea, and the Historical Avant-garde.

Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From August 2025. Today's 2 topics: - Big Bear Solar Observatory is a unique facility operated by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Its 1.6 meter Goode Solar Telescope is located on the north side of Big Bear Lake at an elevation of 6,760 feet above sea level in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California. Being surrounded by cold water at high altitude provides the site with exceptional atmospheric stability and thus the possibility of extremely high quality solar images. It is hard to predict the value of basic research, however, work like this will eventually enable scientists to better understand how solar flares and other activity in the Sun's atmosphere effect astronauts, communications systems, auroras, radio blackouts, geomagnetic storms, satellites, power grids, and more on our home planet.   - Recently, using data from the Japanese infrared telescope AKARI, Dr. Amos Y.A. Chen and his collaborators published a paper in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia which predicts the approximate positions of two massive Planet 9 candidates. To arrive at their conclusions this team carefully searched the AKARI observations for objects which over the course of months change their positions relative to distant stars and galaxies. Further observations are required to determine if either of these move like a Planet 9 or if instead they are some other type of distant astronomical object.     We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Is science missing something fundamental?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, I sit down with astrophysicist Adam Frank to explore one of the deepest questions at the intersection of cosmology and consciousness: has modern science systematically ignored experience itself?We examine whether the scientific worldview — powerful as it is — leaves out the very thing that makes science possible: the lived perspective of the observer. From physics and emergence to life, mind, and meaning, this conversation pushes beyond reductionism and asks whether experience belongs at the foundation of reality.We discuss the role of observers in physics, the limits of materialism, whether consciousness is an accidental byproduct or an intrinsic feature of the universe, and what it would mean to rethink science without abandoning rigor.If science describes the world — where do we fit into the picture?TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction: Exploring The Blind Spot Book & Podcast Overview(0:51) - Lapsed Platonist: Astronomy, Philosophy & Origins of Thought(1:55) - The Quasi-Religious Appeal of Perfect Knowledge in Science(2:44) - Comic Books, Marvel Mythology & Spiritual Impulses(3:53) - Mind-Body Problem Revisited: Moving Beyond Dualism(5:38) - Realism vs Anti-Realism: Experience as the Basis of Knowledge(6:47) - Crisis in Modern Sciences: Husserl & Embodied Metaphysics(8:32) - Analytic vs Continental Philosophy: Why the Divide Matters(9:53) - Eastern Philosophies & Their Neglect in Western Science(12:56) - Quantum Mechanics Screaming for Lived Experience(14:37) - God's Eye View & The Blind Spot Assumption in Science(18:14) - Limits of a Theory of Everything: Embodied Failures Explained(21:04)- New Science & Philosophy: Moving Beyond the Blind Spot(25:22) - Experience-First Perspective: Wittgenstein & Generational Shifts(30:51) - Semantic Information, Meaning, and Agents in Complex Systems(32:34) - History, Catastrophes & Human Creativity Across Long Scales(38:10) - Search for Alien Life & Techno Signatures: Paradigm-Shifting Implications(46:42) - AI Hype, Techno Overpromises & Materialist Defensiveness(50:28) - Life, Co-Arising, and the Co-Constituted Self & World(55:37) - Closing Reflections: Embracing Life's Weirdness & Cosmic WonderEPISODE LINKS:- Adam's Website: https://www.adamfrankscience.com/- Adam's Blog: https://www.everymansuniverse.com/- Adam's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=71Z6Q98AAAAJ&hl=en- Adam's Books: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B001JS7N66- Adam's X: https://x.com/AdamFrank4- Adam's FB: https://www.facebook.com/AdamFrankAuthor/CONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

For decades, neuroscience treated the brain like a digital machine — storing information in synaptic connections and sustaining activity like a switch flipped on. But what if that model is incomplete?In this conversation, I sit down with Earl Miller, MIT professor and head of the Miller Lab, to explore a growing shift in cognitive neuroscience: the brain may compute using dynamic electrical waves.We discuss how oscillations coordinate millions of neurons, how waves interact with spikes in a two-way system, why large-scale brain organization may depend on rhythmic patterns, and what this means for artificial intelligence.If cognition isn't just stored in connections — but emerges from real-time analog wave computation — how should we rethink intelligence?

“The reality is none of us use light continuous forces.” “Friction is awesome. Friction is great, we would be miserable if there was no friction… (with) uncontrolled movement everywhere” “Segmented arch mechanics are very tough to gain three-dimensional control over the tooth.”  “The last major landmark in fixed appliance and in orthodontics was the pre-adjusted edgewise appliance.” “The root is not moving according to the wish of the orthodontist (with aligners)” I'm joined by Madhur Upadhyay for a deepexploration of biomechanics, biology, and the true limits of orthodontic innovation. We examine advances in appliances, aligners, and digital workflows and why they have, as of yet, not improved speed or quality of clinical outcomes,and innovation is still governed by the same biological constraints that dictated tooth movement a century ago. However progress has been significant in workflows for both fixed and aligner therapy. We also discuss why complex biomechanics arerarely implemented in routine practice, whether pre-adjusted appliances were the last major landmark innovation, and what aligners can, and cannot, achieve in terms of root control in terms of biomechanics. The conversation extends toartificial intelligence in diagnosis and treatment planning, asking whether automation enhances clinical care or gradually replaces critical thinking. We conclude with thoughts of micro and nano-plastics and the focus needed on this topic in orthodontics. Please like and subscribe if you find it useful! Please visit the website for this interview podcast:https://orthoinsummary.com/the-hidden-biomechanics-of-fixed-appliances-aligners-orthodontics-in-interview-madhur-upadhyay/ .Publications by Madhur UpadhyayBiomechanics of clear aligners: hidden truths & firstprinciples 2022 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejwf.2021.11.002ClearAligners in Extraction-Based Orthodontic Treatment: A Systematic Review andMeta-Analysis 2026 DOI: 10.1111/ocr.70052   #OrthodonticsInSummary# Madhurupadhyay #Orthodontics#biomechanics#TADs#OrthodonticsInInterview#FarooqAhmed#OrthodonticBiomechanics#DentalEducation Farooq Ahmed

Is the brain really the source of mind — or is consciousness something more deeply biological?In this conversation, Anna Ciaunica challenges neurocentrism and explores the idea that cognition may not begin with neurons at all. We examine neuroimmune coupling, pregnancy as a nested model of subjectivity, basal intelligence before brains, and the fragile embodied self revealed in depersonalization experiences.We also explore biological idealism, multiscale intelligence, and whether artificial systems can ever replicate the ontological structure of living organisms.Topics include:• Neurocentrism and its limits• Immune systems as fact-checkers for survival• Basal cognition before neurons• Pregnancy and nested subjectivity• The fragile embodied self• Depersonalization & active inference• Touch and self-other boundaries• Biological idealism explained• Ontological differences between AI and life• Multiscale intelligence and self-organizationThis episode moves from cells to selves to artificial systems — and asks whether experience might be more fundamental than we assume.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) – Introduction & The Challenge to Brain-Centrism(4:33) – Philosophy's Role in Questioning Scientific Assumptions(8:47) – Neuroimmune Coupling & The Origins of Thought(14:56) – Pregnancy, Nested Systems & Cellular Perception(17:18) – Embodiment in Early Development(23:47) – Phenomenal vs Grounded Experience(29:46) – Fetal Sensory Processing & Early Cognition(36:20) – Layered Analogies for Cognition(40:09) – Basal Intelligence Before Neurons(46:24) – Soma-Sema Theory & Death Anxiety(51:23) – Birth, Death & Ontological Boundaries(55:25) – Depersonalization & The Fragile Self(1:03:39) – Cracks in Transparency & Self-Perception(1:10:50) – Touch, Interaction & Self-Other Boundaries(1:16:45) – The “No Body” Problem(1:21:08) – Brain ≠ Mind: The Neuroimmune Challenge(1:29:09) – Biological Idealism Explained(1:37:59) – AI vs Biological Ontology(1:46:43) – Hidden Assumptions in AI Discourse(2:00:05) – Final ThoughtsEPISODE LINKS:- Anna's Website: https://annaciaunica.fr/- Anna's X: https://x.com/AnnaCiaunica- Anna's Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/annaciaunica.bsky.social- Anna's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=ZUMz7EAAAAAJ&hl=en- From Cells to Selves: https://aeon.co/essays/why-you-need-your-whole-body-from-head-to-toes-to-think- When The Self Slips: https://aeon.co/essays/what-can-depersonalisation-disorder-say-about-the-selfCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

Whether print or digital, text or image, artistic or scientific, rare or common, historic or contemporary, most of the content we encounter contains accidental mistakes—ranging from typos to factual errors to errors arising from prejudicial assumptions—and a significant proportion of it also contains deliberate misinformation resulting from various forms of forgery, fakery, and piracy. In Forgers, Fakers, and Publisher-Pirates (U Alberta Press, 2025), Linda Quirk introduces the work of notorious and lesser-known forgers, reveals the various ways in which experts and authors have faked their own identities—ranging from carefully-selected pseudonyms to falsified ethnicities to fraudulent credentials—and explores a number of shady publishing practices. We can all become better readers and better at protecting ourselves from scammers by improving our understanding of the nature of the content before us. Linda Quirk is a librarian (Bruce Peel Special Collections, University of Alberta, Edmonton) whose research and publications focus on a group of women who, in the nineteenth century, did pioneering work in various fields and whose writings helped to break down the barriers then preventing women from full participation in Canadian society.

On this episode of The Zach Show, Andrew Iliadis explains how companies like Palantir, Anduril, and SpaceX are reshaping warfare, surveillance, and state power by building autonomous defense technologies faster than governments can regulate them. He traces the roots of this shift to post-9/11 defense expansion, cloud computing, and Silicon Valley's deep ties to military funding. By analyzing Palantir's patents and products, Iliadis argues these firms don't just analyze data, they define reality through “ontology,” shaping who is watched, predicted, detained, or targeted. When prediction becomes policy and private tech sets the agenda, democratic oversight struggles to keep up.Guest bio: Andrew Iliadis is an Associate Professor of Media Studies and Production at Temple University's Klein College of Media and Communication. His research examines how data science, AI, and digital infrastructure are reshaping media, governance, and power, with a focus on surveillance, automated decision-making, and national defense. He is the author of Semantic Media and the forthcoming Autonomous Defense (UC Press, 2026), and serves on multiple editorial boards. Subscribe to The Zach Show 2.0 to gain early access to all future episodes, exclusive AMAs, the ability to suggest guest questions, bonus content, and more: https://thezachshow.supercast.com/ ANDREW ILIADIS LINKS:Website: https://andrewiliadis.com/CV: https://andrewiliadis.com/cv/Publications: https://andrewiliadis.com/publications/Autonomous Defense (Book) Coming Soon on UC Press: https://bit.ly/4t37uEa THE ZACH SHOW LINKS: The Zach Show 2.0: https://thezachshow.supercast.com/Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3zaS6sPYouTube: https://bit.ly/3lTpJdjWebsite: https://www.auxoro.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auxoroTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thezachshowpod If you're not ready to subscribe to The Zach Show 2.0, rating the show on Spotify or Apple Podcasts is free and massively helpful.
