This trialogue is the first in a series exploring the latest interdisciplinary research into tantric completion stage practices such as yogas of dream, sleep, and death. Dr Michael Sheehy is the Director of Research at the Contemplative Sciences Center in the Department of Religious Studies in the University of Virginia. Dr Tawni Tidwell is a biocultural anthropologist and doctor of traditional Tibetan medicine. Dr Julian Schott is an Indologist, Tibetologist, and assistant professor at the University of Vienna. Dr Sheehy shares his cutting edge research into the tantric completion stage yogas of dream and sleep, reveals the implication of new directions in neuroscience and micro-phenomenology, and warns of the danger of esoteric practices becoming extinct. Dr Sheehy proposes a two-way split in the future of religious practice, Dr Tidwell reflects on the decline in the number of spiritual masters, and Dr Schott considers the real meaning of secrecy in Tibetan tantra.

Factory fires, chemical explosions, and aerial pollutants have inexorably shaped South Baltimore into one of the most polluted places in the country. In Futures After Progress: Hope and Doubt in Late Industrial Baltimore (U Chicago Press, 2024), anthropologist Chloe Ahmann explores the rise and fall of industrial lifeways on this edge of the city and the uncertainties that linger in their wake. Writing from the community of Curtis Bay, where two hundred years of technocratic hubris have carried lethal costs, Ahmann also follows local efforts to realize a good future after industry and the rifts competing visions opened between neighbors. Examining tensions between White and Black residents, environmental activists and industrial enthusiasts, local elders and younger generations, Ahmann shows how this community has become a battleground for competing political futures whose stakes reverberate beyond its six square miles in a present after progress has lost steam. And yet—as one young resident explains — “that's not how the story ends.” Rigorous and moving, Futures after Progress probes the deep roots of our ecological predicament, offering insight into what lies ahead for a country beset by dreams deferred and a planet on the precipice of change.

Building an art career with intention doesn't always start with a plan. Sometimes it starts with a gut feeling that something isn't working. That was true for Noelle Phares, who left behind a structured science career to follow her creative instincts—eventually leading to a solo museum exhibition and a thriving, self-directed art business. In this episode (part 1 of 2), host Alyson Stanfield talks to Noelle about how she transitioned from environmental data science into full-time painting, and how her rigorous research background continues to shape her studio practice. The conversation centers around 2024 solo show Tracking Time at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art—how it came together, what she learned from the proposal process, and why she approaches every exhibition as a fully developed project. She also shares her mindset around selling art, connecting with collectors, and painting for impact. This conversation is rich with insight about: Leaving a traditional career to follow a creative calling. The research process behind Tracking Time and why Noelle selected 7 distinct locations along the Colorado River. Working with museums and curators while maintaining your artistic voice. Designing exhibitions that tell cohesive, layered stories. Balancing environmental messaging with visual beauty to draw people in. Creating work that connects with buyers and retains meaning. Noelle's blend of structure, vision, and heart makes this an inspiring listen for any artist seeking to step into a more intentional, expansive chapter. Stay tuned for part 2, where we'll dive into how she structures her business, manages a team, markets her work, and approaches gallery relationships.

Game streamers and live commentators are producing increasingly comprehensive analyses of gameplay, yet scholarship still tends to flatten the experiential media of video games into text for close reading. By shifting focus toward the immersiveness of video games, Playthrough Poetics: Gameplay as Research Method (Amherst, 2024) makes the case for gameplay as a necessary, alternate method. Contributors to this volume engage widely with the activity of play through autoethnographies, meta-analyses of self-broadcasting, new procedural methods like gamespace soundwalking, as well as the affective aspects of games research.  In doing so, they model new possibilities for academic players and gamers alike. Rigorous scholarship meets cultural practice in this innovative, multi-modal edited collection that includes video essays and offers transcripts of the playthroughs themselves. Readers (and viewers) will come away with a toolkit of models, case studies, and conceptual frameworks for analyzing video games through gameplay. This volume is a fresh return to the joy of play: the poetics of games as contemporary forms of storytelling and interactivity. With contributions from Ashlee Bird, Brandon Blackburn, Milena Droumeva, Kishonna Gray, Robyn Hope, Ben Scholl, Maria Sommers, Ashlyn Sparrow, Christine Tran, and Aaron Trammell. Rudolf Thomas Inderst (*1978) enjoys video games since 1985. He received a master's degree in political science, American cultural studies as well as contemporary and recent history from Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich and holds two PhDs in game studies (LMU & University of Passau). Currently, he's teaching as a professor for game design at the IU International University for Applied Science, has submitted his third dissertation at the University of Vechta, holds the position as lead editor at the online journal Titel kulturmagazin for the game section, hosts the German local radio show Replay Value and is editor of the weekly game research newsletter DiGRA D-A-CH Game Studies Watchlist.

This episode features an interview with Gaurav Agarwal, COO and Revenue Leader at ClickUp, an all-in-one productivity platform that replaces all individual workplace productivity tools with a single, unified platform. Gaurav shares his thoughts on keeping your content strategy relevant and the iteration and testing needed to go viral. He also discusses maintaining a blend of B2B and B2C tactics to achieve scalable success.Key Takeaways:Content strategy and going viral is much more about consistency and iteration than it is about the spark of one amazing ideas. Rigorous and experimentation leads to long-term ROI. To stay relevant in marketing, you have to keep up to date on generational trends and new formats of reaching people. You can't get comfortable being a great marketer in an outdate channel. You have to keep bets in your portfolio that have an asymmetric upside, which you can only do if you are willing to take on a certain amount of risk. Don't get too excited about immediate ROI. Quote: A huge part of perfecting craft is you want to stay relevant.  I know amazing marketers  who are gods of Facebook and building viral content on Facebook.  And they fought the short form vertical video format with TikTok so much. They looked down upon it because they thought that this is cringy, this is shot on an iPhone. And I'm like, why are you doing this to yourself? Like, do you not want to be culturally relevant in the next decade? So, a huge part of a great team is staying hungry and not thinking that you've arrived because content, media, consumer preferences, even software is a generational business.  You have to stay on with the formats of what the future is and keep moving towards that direction versus be so happy that I'm this amazing marketer on Facebook. Dude, like your time is up. Facebook pages don't get any distribution anymore. Episode Timestamps: *(03:29) The Trust Tree: Size of audience and LTV should drive your marketing strategy *(11:18) The Playbook: Strategic iteration to go viral on social *(38:03) The Dust Up: Adapt content to different channels and stay true to your brand ethos *(43:52) Quick Hits: Gaurav's quick hits Sponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

In this week's podcast I speak with Bodywork Project student Lisa Fahay, a brand new bodyworker who tells us about her challenges and success stories. Learn how a skiing accident 30 years ago introduced Lisa to CranioSacral Therapy and how The Bodywork Project gave her the confidence to create a vision for her own practice for kids and teens. “I am speaking as Miss Independent. I can do all myself. There's just not a reason to. The Bodywork Project is such a great road map and one thing I realized when I first looked at the syllabus — you don't know what you don't know. In that kind of a situation I think it would be really easy to make mistakes that might be hard to recover from.” —Lisa Fahay This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast: Find out how, as massage or bodywork practitioners, we must give ourselves the same space and grace that we offer our clients. Learn how creative, big hearted people — even those just starting out — can also build successful businesses with the proper guidance. And how The Bodywork Project specializes in breaking down giant tasks into smaller, digestible morsels to help you move forward instead of experiencing analysis paralysis.   Resources from this episode: Lisa Fahay has long been drawn to Craniosacral Therapy (CST). After a life-changing experience, she enrolled in Massage Therapy school in order to pursue training in the CST modality. Rigorous learning at this stage of life has been humbling and gratifying and her Craniosacral Therapy practice will combine her vast history and love of working with children in many disciplines — from art therapy, children's yoga, and beyond. She discovered a particular love of working with tweens and teens, offering an experience of safe touch and access to a calm nervous system. A perennial creator, Lisa's mindfulness props and toys reduce stress and enhance a sense of peace.

Why did Bungie's founder leave the AAA world to start building games in UEFN? What are the advantages and challenges of UGC platforms? Today, we talk with Alex Seropian, veteran game designer and founder of Bungie and Look North World, about the future of our industry. Enjoy!   Key Takeaways: UGC Platforms Provide Some Serious Advantages: Tools like Fortnite Creative and Roblox empower creators, enabling rapid prototyping and innovation. Game Dev is Evolving: The shift from small teams to massive AAA productions introduces challenges beyond what we expected and that remain unsolved. Rapid prototyping is essential for aligning ideas with player expectations but not all large studios are set up for it. Balancing Art and Business is not a trivial tightrope to walk. You need creativity, you also need solvency. Playtesting Matters. Rigorous and intentional player feedback is crucial for refining gameplay and UGC can get you this much more easily UGC isn't all roses and rainbows. There are unique challenges and limitations to navigate being on UEFN, Roblox, or other platforms. Community Engagement: Early interaction with players increases the potential, and similar to playtesting, UGC can give you a bit of a leg up here.

BUFFALO, NY - November 11, 2024 – A new #editorial was #published in Oncotarget's Volume 15 on November 7, 2024, titled “Beyond the hype: Navigating bias in AI-driven cancer detection.” In this editorial, researchers from the Mayo Clinic emphasize the need to address potential biases in Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools used for cancer detection to ensure fair and equitable healthcare. Authors Yashbir Singh, Heenaben Patel, Diana V. Vera-Garcia, Quincy A. Hathaway, Deepa Sarkar, and Emilio Quaia discuss the risks of biased AI systems, which can lead to disparities in diagnosis and treatment outcomes across diverse patient groups. While AI is transforming cancer care through early diagnosis and improved treatment planning, this study warns that AI models trained on limited or non-diverse data may misdiagnose or overlook certain populations, particularly those in underserved communities, thereby increasing healthcare disparities. As explained in the editorial, “For example, if an AI model is trained on Caucasian patients, it may struggle to detect skin cancer accurately in patients with darker skin, leading to missed diagnoses or false positives.” Such biases could result in unequal access to early diagnosis and treatment, ultimately leading to poorer health outcomes for certain groups. Beyond racial bias, factors such as socioeconomic status, gender, age, and geographic location can also affect the accuracy of AI in healthcare. The authors propose a comprehensive approach to developing fair AI models in healthcare, highlighting six key strategies. They first emphasize the importance of using diverse and representative datasets to improve diagnostic accuracy across all demographics. Rigorous testing and validation across various population groups are necessary before AI systems are widely implemented. To promote ethical AI use, models should be transparent in their decision-making processes, enabling clinicians to recognize and address potential biases. The researchers also advocate for collaborative development involving data scientists, clinicians, ethicists, and patient advocates to capture a range of perspectives. Continuous monitoring and regular audits are essential to detect and correct biases over time. Finally, training healthcare providers on AI's strengths and limitations will empower them to use these tools responsibly and make informed interpretations. “The goal should not merely be to create AI systems that are more accurate than humans but to develop technologies that are fundamentally fair and beneficial to all patients.” The authors also urge regulatory bodies, such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to implement updated frameworks specifically aimed at addressing AI bias in healthcare. Policies that promote diversity in clinical trials and incentivize the development of fair AI systems will help ensure that AI benefits reach all populations equitably. They caution against over-reliance on AI without a full understanding of its limitations, as unchecked biases could undermine patient trust and slow the adoption of valuable AI technologies. In conclusion, as AI continues to transform cancer care, the healthcare sector must prioritize fairness, transparency, and robust AI regulation to ensure that it serves all patients without bias. By addressing bias from development through to implementation, AI can fulfill its promise of creating a fair and effective healthcare system for everyone.

What does it take to really create safe and effective skin care and not just buzz wordy 'clean beauty'? When it comes to skincare, less is more! It might sound surprising, but our skin doesn't require a complicated 10-step routine to stay healthy. When you're shopping for skincare, try to look past the trendy buzzwords and fancy packaging. Instead, find brands that use safe and effective ingredients that have been clinically tested to show they work and align with your values. It's all about choosing products that help your skin stay radiant and healthy, no quick fixes, gimmicks or hype here! Tune in to this week's podcast with Amy Gordinier as she discusses creating skin care products that dermatologists trust, covering everything from clinical testing to ingredient safety.  Key Takeaways: - Make sure your product is well preserved. - Safety is far and away the most important. - Understand the products you're purchasing and their formulation methodology. - Dermatologists are the skin experts and should be listened to. - Clean beauty lacks a defined definition, so be cautious. - Collaboration with dermatologists enhances product efficacy. - Rigorous testing is essential for skincare products. - Avoid overusing trending ingredients in formulations. - Consider the holistic approach to skincare. - Preservatives are necessary for product safety. Since Amy launched Skinfix in 2014, she has pioneered the clean clinical category of skincare and brought the conversation of skin barrier health to Sephora. After graduating from Princeton University,Amy lived in New York and London working for some of the biggest names in beauty, from L'Oréal to Jo Malone, before moving to the Canadian coastal city of Halifax, Nova Scotia to start a family. It was there that she met the great, great granddaughter of the British pharmacist who created the heritage Skinfix healing balm.    She was captivated by the powerful formula that the family had passed down through five generations and blown away by the hundreds of hand-written testimonials that they had amassed from people who had used it to heal some of the most serious skin concerns. Since then, she and her team have followed the methodology of using a high level of proven active ingredients at their clinically validated levels to replenish and maintain the vital skin barrier. The Skinfix team works closely with dermatologists to develop therapeutic skincare that is clinically proven to work and will continue until they have helped heal every skin concern that they possibly can. She is also the host of Total Skin Nerds podcast, which features in-depth conversations with top doctors and skin care authorities on a crusade to change how skin is cared for, treated, healed, experienced and talked about.  Skinfix: Website: https://ca.skinfix.com/ Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/skinfixinc/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/skinfix/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skinfix?lang=en    Follow Dr. Mina here:-  https://instagram.com/drminaskin https://www.facebook.com/drminaskin https://www.youtube.com/@drminaskin https://www.linkedin.com/in/drminaskin/ For more great skin care tips, subscribe to The Skin Real Podcast or visit www.theskinreal.com Baucom & Mina Derm Surgery, LLC Email - scheduling@atlantadermsurgery.com Contact - (404) 844-0496 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/baucomminamd/ Thanks for listening!

Howdy, y'all, and welcome to The Cyber Ranch Podcast!  Our guest today is Tim Brown.  If you don't' know who Tim Brown is, he is the CISO at SolarWinds, and as such, is one of us. Or maybe in a way, he is all of us, really.  Tim advises and has held various other roles in the past, including product roles, which our listeners know are well-respected skills down at the 'Ranch. The topic today is cyber regulation.  It can range from self-regulation to associations, principles, practices, lobbying – all the way up to full government regulation.  What works?  What's required? Topics covered: What is the case for regulation? What are the basics rules to provide us coverage and clarity? Not knowing the rules makes people nervous and afraid... Document your own processes, procedures, JDs, what you do, what you don't do. Make it clear! Rigorous banking industry regulations exist already.  How onerous are they?  How badly would they fit the rest of us? Perhaps a GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) equivalent is desired? Process/procedure vs. 'Thou shalt never have a vulnerability!' Heavy-handed governmental oversight - defining standard of care and turning that into something people can stand behind? Remember that Sarbanes and Oxley were people.  Real people. Is regulation required to create a more positive environment in the way SOX does? What does the public-private partnership need so that the rules created are good and realistic and improve cybersecurity for the world? REGULATION IS COMING!  THE CISO COMMUNITY MUST BE A PART OF THAT REGULATION! Have we had a cyber Enron, and do we need one?  That was the real catastrophe that launched SOX... Regarding GAAP, accounting is deterministic vs. dynamic - Can a cyber GAPP ever exist given how dynamic we are? The compliance world: principles based vs. rules based regulation - a more practical model. It may not move the bar enough, but it's a good starting point. Should a whole field of security auditors existing like accounting auditors do? We are youngsters in this craft still... Is the accounting world really the best metaphor?  Auditors, forensic accountants, etc.? Another model is the medical world - malpractice, specific rules and regulations on specific surgical practices? What about a national CISO board or association like the NACD or the American Psychological Association? What about boards like medical review boards that approve specialties? Lobbying How to fund this? Who should be doing the doing?  Inclusivity vs. sound gatekeeping. A barber has to be licensed to cut hair - should we get licensed? This conversation was around with software engineers long before it was with cyber folks.  We learned that self-policing did not really work... The challenge is one of not shackling the business, or at least not appearing to, and the subsequent pushback. The call to action is ultimately this: If you don't have a seat at the table, folks will do things to you rather than with you.  So get involved! Y'all be good now!
