It aired stroies by some of the genre's best writers like Norman Spinrad, Arthur C. Clarke, Gordon R. Dickson, and Ray  Bradbury. Many of the readings were enhanced by music, periodic sound cues, and the occasional character voice, however they are not completely dramatized.Related Links:Journey #115 - The Power of the Sentence by David M.

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   In 2013 I spoke with Andrew Yang who was the CEO of Venture for America at the time. He was at his office and multi-tasking during our interview, so when you listen to the interview, you’ll hear some background noise and typing. At the time he talked about being invited to the White House amongst several things.   Who would have predicted that a few years later that he would be running as a Democrat for the 2020 U.S. President election?   Many now know him as the Presidential candidate who proposed something called the “Freedom Dividend.” With the 2020 U.S. Presidential election results unfolding, and Joe Biden recently declared President-elect, some say that there may place for Andrew in the Biden administration. I thought it would be a good time to share this interview that I did with Andrew.     Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   Andrew’s involvement with the Entrepreneur Challenge and Competition and connection with the Taiwanese American Professionals What is Venture for America? What it was like for Andrew to be invited to the White House and speak to President Barack Obama about Venture for America? How Venture for America was modeled after Teach for America What cities Venture for America was in (at the time of the interview) and where they were planning to expand to What types of startups Venture for America works with How long is the bootcamp that Venture for America fellows are required to go through and what are they taught How many fellows there were in Venture for America (at the time of the interview) What are some of the things that the fellows have done/accomplished How Jeff Weiner the CEO of LinkedIn has agreed to join Venture for America’s investment council The highlights of being involved with Venture for America for Andrew What’s the most challenging thing about running an organization like Venture for America What motivates Andrew with Venture for America Who are some of Andrew’s role models in the nonprofit space What’s the difference between a struggling and successful entrepreneur What advice Andrew has for someone wanting to start a community-based organization What Andrew’s future plans are for Venture for America Andrew’s book Smart People Should Build Things Andrew’s thoughts on Taiwan and the entrepreneurship of the Taiwanese people   Related Links:   Venture for America: www.ventureforamerica.org   Teach for America: https://www.teachforamerica.org/   Charity Water: https://www.charitywater.org/   Donors Choose: https://www.donorschoose.org/   Angela Lee Duckworkth’s TED talk about Grit: https://www.ted.com/talks/angela_lee_duckworth_grit_the_power_of_passion_and_perseverance?utm_campaign=tedspread&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=tedcomshare     Smart People Should Build Things by Andrew Yang: https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B00DB3D7EY&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_BVrSFb10ZBV39   Andrew Yang’s campaign website for the 2020 U.S. Presidential election: https://www.yang2020.com/   Taiwanese American Professionals- New York (TAP-NY): https://tap-ny.org/

Actively learning is a lot like using applied research. It's a very useful place to work from, you can be confident enough to proceed making things yet not too confident to prevent learning as you go. We setup teams and organizations to sink or swim based on too much certainty. We're certain often from a combination of ego and efficiency seeking without adapting until expensive mistakes happen. What if we practice being confident enough and setup teams to actively learn instead? And the UX Mindset series continues!

Where does UX go wrong? Whether a system is broken at the surface or takes deeper understanding to see how it's not serving the health of its audience along with it's other constituencies: UX can be used to help fix or to make things worse. How can that be? Organizations have a lot to do to just exist and maintain exsistence. Some are not questioning things they could question to fix what's broken. Let's pay attention, be curious, inclusive and move what we make toward collective health. And the UX Mindset series continues!

It's useful to have even a rough concept of what you're working toward, things you know are important or likely to encounter, or at least are worth checking to see if they'd be helpful. For example, a mental model like a creative progression going from rough concept to refined to complete.

After a long THA absence, John White Joins Paul again to catch up on the latest drama following the US General Elections. Are we experiencing the biggest fraud of our generation?  Related Links: https://twitter.com/JohnTheWhite1

In this episode we talk to Paul Vallely, author of Philanthropy: From Aristotle to Zuckerberg about his new book and what we can learn from history that can help inform our understanding of modern philanthropy and our thinking about where it should go in the future. Including: What value does a historical perspective bring? Would people working in philanthropy/civil society would benefit from more historical perspective? What is the fundamental distinction between the Greco-Roman tradition of philanthropy and that which emerged from the Abrahamic religions, and why it is still important in understanding philanthropy today? What does history tell us about the relationship between charity and justice: i.e. do they exist in opposition, or is charity a means of delivering justice? How is this debate is reflected in the history of philanthropy, and why does it remain relevant today? How have views on the nature of poverty shaped philanthropy? I.e. Is poverty seen as a moral failing on the part of the individual, or a structural flaw in society? Are poverty & inequality “problems to be solved” or merely part of the natural order that accords some wealth and some poverty- and what does this mean for the role of charity? As we see controversy once again about “Victorian attitudes” towards the “deserving and undeserving poor”, are these issues that we need to grapple with in thinking about philanthropy? What can we learn from history about the question of “tainted donations”, and the extent to which the way in which wealth has been created determines the legitimacy of trying to do good through giving it away? What is the distinction the book draws between “strategic” & “reciprocal” philanthropy? It is clearly almost impossible to understand the history of philanthropy without understanding some theology, as religion and charity were inextricably entwined for a long time. But what role does religion play in driving and shaping modern philanthropy? The freedom that philanthropy and civil society have to run counter to the status quo or the policies and public opinion of a particular time has been a key part of driving historic social change. How do we preserve this freedom, whilst also answering concerns that unchecked philanthropic power could end up being anti-democratic? What is the core role of philanthropy within society which differentiates it from either state or market provision? The book speaks approvingly of celebrity activists (making the point that they are in some ways following the template set by the original “philanthropist” John Howard). What role can this kind of philanthropy play? Why is it often viewed somewhat cynically?     Related Links   Philanthropy: From Aristotle to Zuckerberg website Guardian extract from Paul’s book, “How Philanthropy Benefits the Super-Rich” Paul’s blog for NPC “Why history should matter to philanthropists and philanthropy professionals” Paul on BBC Radio Three’s Free Thinking.

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Jason Wang, the Founder of Cypress River Advisors spoke with me about how his advisory firm which is normally not in the business of producing PPE, was able to start the production of face shields at scale in four weeks in Taiwan during the COVID-19 pandemic. The effort which is called Face Shields for the First Line, donates face shields to health care and essential workers.   We also talked about how they cut down on the shipping costs and minimized waste by using polypropylene a material lighter in weight than acrylic and flat packaging due to the origami design of the face shield.   Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   What’s it been like being in Taiwan during the Coronavirus pandemic Jason’s, upbringing and career path before he relocated to Taiwan and founded Cypress River Advisors What brought Jason back to Taiwan What Cypress River Advisors does How Cypress River Advisors has been impacted by COVID-19 How this advisory firm had no prior experience producing PPE but its Face Shield for the First Line effort was able to produce and ship their first face shields in four weeks Why Jason decided to start Face Shields for the First Line How Face Shields for the First Line began with producing intubation shields and then face shields The origami design of the face shields and light-weight materials used to cut down on shipping costs What bra elastic has to do with Face Shields for the First Line What’s been most challenging with Face Shields for the First Line What’s been most rewarding about Face Shields for the First Line How Jason manages the business of Cypress River Advisors and Face Shields for the First Line How fatherhood has changed his outlook on life The future direction of Face Shields for the First Line   Related Links:   Face Shields for the First Line Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/faceshieldsforthefirst     Face Shields for the First Line donated to Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, NY   Face Shields for the First Line on Spotfund: https://spot.fund/faceshieldsforthefirst   Cypress River Advisors: https://www.cypressriveradvisors.com/   A conversation between Taiwan’s Vice President Chen Chien-jen and Ellen J.

Advocate for design in order to advocate for and include learning about our audiences. We designers practice many useful skills to help us and those we work with to make inclusive decisions that shape products and systems.

Something I've been considerering for a number of years: how can I help spreat the tools of ux design far and wide. Human centered design + understanding systems and situations where the things we make connect with the audiences we serve are useful mechanisms for so many. Here I talk about how I started with "UX for all" then "Practicing UX" and am thinking how "UX Mindset" may be even more approachable as a way to choose to involve people and see situations differently to be able to make better things.

Season One of The Mandalorian concluded with a two-part story arc consisting of “Chapter 7: The Reckoning” and “Chapter 8: Redemption.” In this episode of Hyperspace Theories, Tricia Barr and B.J. Priester analyze how the finale episodes pay off the storytelling and characterization set up during the course of the season. We also look ahead to how the threads left open at the end of Season One may lay the groundwork for the stories to come in Season Two. The finale episodes of Season One provide compelling character development for the titular Mandalorian (whose real name, we learn, is Din Djarin), as well as further evolving Baby Yoda’s understanding of the Force, a change of heart by Greef Carga, and the fateful sacrifices of Kuill and IG-11 to save the Child from Imperial captivity. We also discuss the humorous sequence at the opening of Chapter 8, involving the two biker scouts with Baby Yoda, and examine the storytelling impact and thematic purpose of humor in conveying a moral message to the audience. And of course we have to talk about the incredible new villain, Moff Gideon – who, it is revealed in the last moments of the season, is in possession of the Darksaber, an important relic of Mandalorian culture.

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Dr. Peter Tsai is the Taiwanese American inventor of the technology behind the N95 mask, the piece of personal protective equipment that has become such a part of our everyday vernacular since the onset of the global Coronavirus pandemic. With the shortage of N95 respirators at the beginning of the pandemic, Dr. Tsai was called out of retirement to figure out how to sterilize N95s for reuse, and to help scale up production of the masks. In part one of my interview with him he talks about his roots and early career. Dr. Tsai also explains how the technology behind the material of N95s works, offers some suggestions on how to make more protective D.I.Y. masks, and why everyone should wear masks.   Next week we’ll be sharing part two of my interview with Dr. Tsai next week, in which he talks about how he was called out of retirement and what has happened since.   Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   What it was like growing up as one of 10 children One of his early childhood inventions Why he decided to pursue further studies in the United States What it was like when he first arrived in the U.S. and what his expectations were The biggest challenge Dr. Tsai faced when first arriving in the U.S. The tough decision that Dr. Tsai had to make about his two daughters while he was still working on obtaining his PhD degree When and how Dr. Tsai started working on the material that is now used for the N95 mask How adding an electrostatic charge to fibers improves their filtration efficiency How the “corona charge” (yes, the same word “corona” but different in meaning from the Coronavirus “corona”) when added to microfibers improves filtration efficiency by 10 times The first use of this charged fabric technology was for air filtration in 1992 In 1995 the U.S. was set to issue new standards for respirators, which is now called the N95 The 95 of “N95” mask refers to the fact that it needs to filter out 95% of submicron particles How the science behind charging fibers works The misconception that the size of a fabric’s pores need to be smaller than particles to block them Electrostatic charged media is good material for respirators The comparison between cloth masks (which are made of woven material) and N95 masks (which are made of nonwoven material) Cloth masks with higher filtration efficiency must be compactly woven, thicker or higher weight How cloth masks are good shields to contain the virus inside a mask avoid infecting others Cloth masks are not ideal but they can contain the spread of the virus to others Dr. Tsai’s recommendations regarding wearing cloth masks The most commonly found types of nonwoven materials that can be used as a filter for a D.I.Y. mask How to test if a fabric is hydrophobic How a MERV 14 home use filter (typically used for air filters) is electrostatically charged and hydrophobic and good to use as a filter for a D.I.Y. mask Dr. Tsai explains why he thinks everyone needs to wear a mask (whether its cloth or N95) How Dr. Tsai is working on making high filtration efficiency materials more breathable Research on the material used for the N95 mask began in 1987, then in 1992 the technology used for the N95 mask was first developed The material has been improved from 1992-2018 How Dr. Tsai is motivated to innovate by the changing needs of the industry   Related Links:   TaiwaneseAmerican.org article about Dr. Peter Tsai, “Our Dad Invented the N95 Mask: Our Taiwanese American Story”: http://www.taiwaneseamerican.org/2020/09/peter-tsai-n95-inventor/   Washington Post article about Dr. Peter Tsai, “The retired inventor of N95 masks is back at work, mostly for free, to fight covid-19”: https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/2020/07/07/peter-tsai-n95-mask-covid/   NBC News article about Dr. Peter Tsai, “Taiwanese immigrant who invented N95 mask on working amid COVID-19 racism”: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/taiwanese-immigrant-who-invented-n95-mask-working-amid-covid-19-n1233777

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   Earlier this year, I spoke with Professor Scott Simon about his research on Taiwan’s indigenous peoples. He is a Professor in the School of Sociological and Anthropological Studies and Co-holder of the Research Chair in Taiwan Studies at the University of Ottawa. He’s done research in Taiwan since 1996, spent an accumulated 10 years of residence in the country, and published 3 books about Taiwan. We talked about Taiwan as the cradle of Austronesian peoples and culture, and what the designation of a group of people as “indigenous” means from an international law perspective. What’s interesting to me is how Professor Simon’s work invites us to think of Taiwan as a Pacific island nation rather than a renegade province of China.   Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   How Professor Simon got interested in the indigenous peoples of Taiwan How there were a lot of changes pertaining to the indigenous peoples of Taiwan around 1996 The indigenous people that Professor Simon met while in Taiwan What brought Professor Simon to Taiwan initially in 1996 How Professor Simon had initially planned to obtain his PhD in China but ended up doing it in Taiwan How Professor Simon's research on Taiwan’s indigenous peoples and economic development led him to study the ecology and environment, and the study of Austronesian peoples The connection between the Bhatani Islands of the Philippines and Taiwan The similarity between the CHamoru language (of the people of Guam) with the Truku language of the Taiwanese indigenous people and Tao language spoken in Taiwan’s Orchid Island Looking at Taiwan as a Pacific island nation and not just as connected to China Taiwan’s connection to Guam, Marieta Islands, Carolina Islands, Maori of New Zealand and Easter Island Book recommendations for people wanting to learn more about Taiwan’s indigenous peoples The difference between categorizing a group of people as indigenous vs. an ethnic minority The three nations in Asia that recognize indigenous peoples The political implications that come with a group of people being declared indigenous     Related Links:   Professor Scott Simon’s author page on The Center for International  Policy Studies of the University of Ottawa website: https://www.cips-cepi.ca/author/scott-simon/   Undoing Fieldwork in a Time of Epidemic by Scott Simon: https://cascacultureblog.wordpress.com/2020/04/20/undoing-fieldwork-in-a-time-of-epidemic/   Professor Scott Simon’s books:   Tanners of Taiwan: Life Strategies and National Culture: https://books.google.com/books/about/Tanners_of_Taiwan.html?id=ostwAAAAMAAJ   Sweet and Sour: Life-Worlds of Taipei Women Entrepreneurs: https://books.google.com/books/about/Sweet_and_Sour.html?id=gFyqAuPTAgkC

With Season Two of The Mandalorian premiering at the end of the month, our latest episode of Hyperspace Theories revisits the stories told in Season One. Between the three-episode opening arc and the two-episode conclusion falls a trio of distinct episodes that build and develop a number of important character dynamics. Tricia Barr and B.J. Priester discuss Chapter Four: Sanctuary, Chapter Five: The Gunslinger, and Chapter Six: The Prisoner and what they contribute to The Mandalorian’s story progression. Many of those developments involve the show’s central and titular character. Like the middle of a Campbellian journey, Mando faces tests and trials while encountering allies and enemies. These episodes, for example, reinforce Mando’s distaste for droids and his sworn commitment to never remove his helmet around other people. They also show his worldly experience, his tactical combat prowess and creativity, and the code of honor that plays a role in determining which adversaries he defeats but leaves alive – and which ones he kills. And of course, his relationship with his ward, Baby Yoda, advances too, with a little prompting from Cara Dune, Omera, and Pelli Motto, as well as Mando’s own burgeoning affection for the child. Check back soon for our next episode, also to be released before Season Two begins, when we will discuss the finale episodes of Season One.

Growing up, I knew I was struggling with things that other people seemed to be able to do without a second thought. I thought I was just lazy, that I needed to be more disciplined and to take things more seriously. But it never worked, and I never understood why. Now, after a lifetime of searching, I finally have the answers.  This week, I want to talk with you about my experiences with having been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, how it can affect you and your relationships, and my experiences with getting diagnosed and getting treated.  Here's what happened. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: What people get wrong about ADHD Why so many people don't get diagnosed or treated when they need it How having ADHD can affect your confidence and your relationships Why people with ADHD have anxiety and depression How getting treatment has changed my life ...and so much more.

Captain Ray Carmody and Anya Borisovna get married and rocket to the moon to save the human race.To download, right-click here and then click SaveFredric Brown (October 29, 1906 – March 11, 1972) was an American science fiction and mystery writer. He was born in Cincinnati.  He is perhaps best known for his use of humor and for his mastery of the "short short" form—stories of 1 to 3 pages, often with ingenious plotting devices and surprise endings. Humor and a somewhat postmodern outlook carried over into his novels as well.The famous pulp writer Mickey Spillane called Brown "my favorite writer of all time".  Science fiction and fantasy writer Neil Gaiman has also expressed fondness for Brown's work, having his novel Here Comes A Candle narrated by the character Rose Walker in the collection The Kindly Ones of The Sandman.  Brown also had the honor of being one of three dedicatees of Robert A. Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land.X Minus One was a half-hour science fiction radio drama series broadcast from April 24, 1955 to January 9, 1958 in various timeslots on NBC.  Initially a revival of NBC's Dimension X (1950–51), the first 15 episodes of X Minus One were new versions of Dimension X episodes, but the remainder were adaptations by NBC staff writers, including Ernest Kinoy and George Lefferts, of newly published science fiction stories by leading writers in the field, including Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, Robert A. Heinlein, Frederik Pohl and Theodore Sturgeon, along with some original scripts by Kinoy and Lefferts.Related Links:Journey #65 - Knock by Frediric BrownTheme music: Liberator by Man In Space To comment on this or any episode:Journey on over to the ForumsLeave us a voicemail at 77-JINTO-107 (775-4686-107)Send comments and/or recordings to journeyintopodcat@gmail.comTweet us us TwitterPost a comment on Facebook hereComment directly to this post down below

A note from Talking Taiwan host Felicia Lin:   With major league baseball playoffs soon upon us, we thought that this episode might appeal to our baseball fans. It seems like a distant memory now, when about a month into the Coronavirus pandemic, Taiwan was the only place on the planet where live professional baseball was being played. My guest on this episode is Professor Andrew Morris whose research on baseball in Taiwan presents a fascinating new angle and way of seeing Taiwan’s history. I came across his writings and research when I when I was doing some research for my interview (episode 77) with Richard Wang the English-speaking broadcaster of CPBL games in Taiwan.   How important is baseball to Taiwan? Did you know that there’s a baseball related image featured on Taiwan’s currency or that Taiwan’s little league baseball team won 17 times from 1979 to1996?   Interestingly, Professor Morris began our interview by sharing his own mistaken assumption of baseball as a symbol of American culture in Taiwan. He went on to explain that baseball was introduced to Taiwan by Japan, while it was a colony of Japan from 1895-1945. We covered a broad range of topics including how baseball survived the arrival of the Kuomintang in Taiwan, the rise of Taiwan’s little league team, the establishment of a professional baseball league in Taiwan (CPBL) which has had its ups and downs, and the short-lived Taiwan Major League.     Here’s a little preview of what we talked about in this podcast episode:   How Professor Morris got interested in the topic of baseball and the history of Taiwan How baseball in Taiwan is not as it seems on the surface, a symbol of American culture in Taiwan What were some of the most surprising and interesting things that Professor Morris has learned about baseball in Taiwan over the course of his research The role of Taiwan’s Indigenous people in the game of baseball in Taiwan What baseball tells us about Taiwan’s Japanese colonial era How Chiayi (嘉義) is known as the spiritual home of baseball and how that was captured in the film Kano How “Kano,” is the nickname of the old Chiayi Agricultural and Forestry Vocational High School, which comes from the two Japanese words “Ka-gi No-rin” The Kano baseball team became the best team in Taiwan and is remembered by the Japanese How Kano is remembered as an example of the success of Japan’s colonialism in Taiwan Baseball as a pathway for Indigenous peoples during Taiwan’s Japanese colonial period Professor Morris’ thoughts about the film Kano and its historical accuracy The Japanese influence that we still see in Taiwanese baseball today How after the Kuomintang arrived in Taiwan, around 1946, they tried to remove and erase Japanese culture, but baseball was allowed to remain What happened to baseball after the Kuomintang arrived in Taiwan How baseball games were played in the aftermath of the 228 massacre and a famous baseball coach was killed in the 228 massacre Taiwan’s little league baseball team and how it served to bolster Republic of China (ROC) nationalism The 1968 legend of what led Taiwan creating a little league team and participating in the little league world series How in 1969, the Taiwanese little league team played in the Little League World Series in South Williamsport, PA for the first time and won Between 1969-1996 the Taiwanese little league team won the Little League World Series 17 times and became a source of pride for the Taiwanese who watched the games late at night The story (from the 70s) of how a coach of a little league team comprised mostly of Black players sensed the anti-Chinese and anti-Taiwanese sentiment against the Taiwanese little league team How the Taiwanese little league team became a source of Taiwanese pride (different from ROC pride) How the KMT hired Chinatown thugs to beat up the pro-Taiwanese little league fans and fights would break out between them after little league games What happened to Taiwan’s little league team The legacy of Taiwan’s little league team How the American little league teams that were able to beat Taiwan’s little league team were celebrated an ESPN made a 30 for 30 film about this The story behind the image of the youth baseball team that appears on Taiwan’s 500 dollar bill The establishment of the CPBL and its game throwing and gambling scandals The short-lived Taiwan Major League (TML) and how it differed from the CPBL How baseball has been tied to Taiwan’s national identity in the past but that has changed as Taiwan has become more democratic The research that Professor Morris is working on now Professor Morris’ recommendations of other books on the subject of baseball in Taiwan   Related Links:   Professor Andrew Morris’ Cal Poly webpage: https://history.calpoly.edu/faculty/andrew-morris Professor Andrew Morris’ Digital Commons page (which has full text of some of his articles): http://bit.ly/ADMorrisDC   Colonial Project, National Game: A History of Baseball in Taiwan (Asia Pacific Modern Book 6) by Andrew D.

Rejection hurts... but the fear of rejection can often hurt even worse. In fact, when we give into the fear of rejection, we often set up a pattern that can affect us throughout our lives. Rejections we've experienced in the past can end up affecting us NOW. When we give into the fear of rejection, we can end up reliving that fear, long after it's happened... feeling the pain as though it's happening to us again, right now. When that happens, it becomes a way that we almost give up our free will; life becomes a series of steps that you take to try to AVOID feeling the discomfort and pain of rejection. It's time to learn how to break the cycle and learn how to stop letting your fear control you. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS: What science can teach us about rejection and rejection sensitivity How our brains work against us and keep us in a cycle of fear and avoidance Why rejection hurts, even years later How a fear of rejection can CAUSE the very rejection we're trying to avoid How understanding your body can help you conquer your fear of rejection ...and so much more.
