Derek does the California Mille – California's take on the 1000-mile Italian road rally, the Mille Miglia. Behind the wheel of a 1956 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Veloce, Derek (and OTS & Co. cofounder, Tazio Ottis), experienced some of central California's best driving roads between Half Moon Bay and Calistoga alongside over 80 of the finest automobiles to exist by the mid-20th century. === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US.

After Martin's passing, his wife and two sons (specialists at Broad Arrow and Bring-a-Trailer ) carried on the tradition until the event was purchased by Hagerty in late 2020. It's a swanky affair with spas, fancy lunches, drive-thru oyster bars, and open regular bars, with specialist mechanics and flatbed tow trucks at your beck and call. Naturally with 70-year-old (or older) cars, many breakdowns ensued. A Mercedes 300SL needed a tow, and a Ferrari 250 TdF required assistance from Patrick Ottis Company after several transmission components welded themselves together. A bolt came dislodged on the shift linkage of a Citroën ID promptly stranding it, but Derek's stash of spare bolts saved the day. Differentials were grenaded, and problematic torpedo fuses were replaced while still in motion. A woman in a Honda Accord even PIT-maneuvered a pre-war Bentley on the Golden Gate Bridge. The Carmudgeons discuss past rally experiences in a W201 190E in Europe, Jason's 5000-mile trek to Ohio in his Scirocco, the Orange Blossom Rally in a Mazda Cosmo, and the BABE Rally in a $400 Cadillac stretch limo. Derek touches on the Colorado Grand Rally and Copper State Rally, and the boys discuss possibly starting the Curmudgeon Mille e Uno Rally. Derek points out that Miles Collier, cofounder of the precursor to the SCCA, posited that there are 2 types of enthusiasts: contemplative and experiential. Rallies are definitely for the latter. Plus Jason wears an un-tailored button-down, we dive headfirst into porta potties, and we wonder if the 1988 Honda Accord is too reliable to rally. Learn more about your ad choices.

How to not get ripped off when buying a used classic car! How to spot fakes, frauds and phonies! The importance of documentation and pre-purchase inspections, and other lessons learned over 50 collective years of car shopping! === This episode is sponsored by Vyper Industrial — America's #1 rated shop chair, tool carts, and creepers, proudly made here in the US. Visit vyperindustrial.com and use code CARMUDGEON for $50 off. === We start off with a reminder to put fuel stabilizer in your car when it's going to sit for a while – especially if you're using garbage California gas. We debate what the acronym “smh” stands for, and discover there seems to be a cat-flatulence epidemic in France. Then we'll dive right into the importance of the pre-purchase inspection (PPI) – something Jason thought he was more than qualified to perform himself on a Le Mans-blue Alfa Romeo GTV at Monterey Car Week several years ago. However, at the urging of concours car-prep extraordinaire, Tim McNair, Jason acquiesced and let expert automotive consultant, Chuck Wray, take a look at the car, and almost immediately discovered that Jason was moments away from buying two GTVs that had been stealthily welded into one. Derek will fill us in on how there can possibly be multiple “numbers matching” cars with the same serial numbers. And we'll cover several of the factory-based archival certification programs like VW's Birth Certificate, Porsche's Kardex and Certificate of Authenticity, Lotus' Certificate of Vehicle Provenance, and the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust. We'll cover Ferrari Classiche (pronounced “classi-kay”), and the handful of exhaustive and painstakingly researched books detailing the specs of iconic models: Carrera RS, The Dino Compendium, and Simon Kidson's The Lamborghini Miura. Plus automotive engineering and restoration atelier, Pur Sang. We take a trip to Esoteria once again to discuss the subtlest model changes on cars like the Scirocco, Rover SD1 3500, Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3-16 and what each change signifies (or doesn't in the case of VW's haphazard product planning). Jason even uncovers a handful of U.S.-spec C43s accidentally left the factory wearing a Europe-only paint color, Black Opal. Which is actually blue. Jason's approach to not getting screwed while buying a 996 cabriolet on eBay involves arriving at the seller's in a blacked out E39 BMW 5-series wagon with Argentina plates and wielding a baseball bat – classic haggling. Meanwhile, Derek does everything by the book and pays for a $500 PPI on a Porsche 911 he found online, only for it to arrive smoking and in need of a head rebuild. Both Carmudgeons revel in learning the histories of their cars (and others' cars): Jason getting the original paperwork for the Ferrari 308 GT4 from distributor Chinetti-Garthwaite to dealer Schwing Motor Company in 1975, and Derek tracking down his friend's 356's Kardex and subsequently locating photos of the car with its original owner when the car was brand new. There's loads of automotive history, forensics, anthropology and archaeology in this one! The question is, would you give up your original California plate if it meant no more SMOG checks? Leno's Law hopes to find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Früher fuhr Vati nach Feierabend im Scirocco nach Marokko, den Kofferraum auf Anschlag gepackt mit Strandklamotten, Dosenbier und ner Stange Lord Extra.

The legendary, 500-hp Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series was never produced with a manual transmission. So, Derek had one built. === The Carmudgeon Show Sponsor, Vredestein Tires: https://www.vredestein.com/ Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === Derek Tam-Scott's company, OTS & Co., purchased a C209-chassis 2008 Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series for science/tax reasons and immediately sent it to Matt Kwiek of @kwiekclassics for a new Mercedes-sourced manual transmission swap. How does the legendary AMG M156 6.3-liter V-8 (which is actually 6.2 liters) work with a 6-speed manual? For science, Derek hired SCCA Hall of Fame race car driver Randy Pobst to set a lap time in both a stock, automatic CLK63 BS and a 6-speed swapped one. The Black Series is one of Jason Cammisa's favorite cars of all time. He attended its launch at Willow Springs raceway, where he struggled to keep up with an 80-year-old Denise McLuggage as she executed flawless and effortless laps in the exact same car. It's a fun story. The ‘mudgeons then briefly cover all the Black Series models: the R171 SLK55, C209 CLK63, R230 SL65, W204 C63, and SLS AMG.  Is the CLK Black Series peak AMG? Derek compares the 6-speed swapped CLK to the fifth-gen Pontiac GTO and E39 BMW M5 Dinan S2. And the Carmudgeons discuss whether other collectible cars should also be manual-swapped, including the Lexus LFA, Alfa Romeo 4C and 8C, and the E60 M5.  The boys also ponder if tearing out the OE tranny on the Black Series is a crime akin to that of the Sacrilege Motors 964 911 EV conversion.  Which wasn't, actually, a crime. We end with a brief discussion of twin-engine cars: a half-Leaf half-motorcycle, a Twini (dual-engine Mini Cooper), DuRocco (twin-engine Scirocco), a pre-war Alfa, and a Citroen 2CV Safari.  Plus, the van, Jynah, prepares for potentially slippery, wet and white conditions with a brand new set of Vredestein Wintrac Pros!

Derek and Jason own many cars and once in a while, many of them break. Or receive really cool upgrades. It's time for a car-nerd fleet update! === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev See: https://www.vredestein.com/ And: https://www.radwood.com/socal-2024 === The boys start with discussing "de-advanced" ignition timing on the Rover SD1 — and Jason did his first-ever brake master cylinder rebuild. But the big issue is that Jason wants to downsize his fleet (he still has 10 cars) but loves the different experience that each car offers. The Rover has a big (ish) lazy V8 and is unlike anything else Jason has. Derek wants to be done with his Citroën CX because it sprung a hydraulic leak, but then found the Citroën community — and, hopefully, someone to work on it. And so maybe it'll stay.  Thanks to Derek's guilt, 9 of Jason's cars have fresh brake fluid — which doesn't seem like a big deal, but doing 9 brake-fluid bleeds is time consuming. And worse, Jason discovered that his E30 Touring still had ATE Super Blue in his car. Which confirms that it was at least a decade old. Derek's Porsche 944 no longer has a 14-year-old timing belt, which means it can be driven to Radwood SoCal (hopefully on new Vredestein tires, no less!) Jason and Derek talk about today's ridiculous trend of people changing timing belts at 3, 4, or 5 years, with no mileage on them. This is an epidemic in the Ferrari community — when mechanics happily double the recommended replacement interval.  Jason has been suspecting that his VW Cabriolet is suffering from SMS: the dreaded transmission self-machining syndrome that kills many 020 transmissions. But after some exploratory surgery, it really now seems like a bad wheel bearing. That would figure, since Beatrice the E30 (the 1989 325i) also needs a wheel bearing after completing a track day (with Randy Pobst as an instructor on Sonoma Raceway.) These tend to come in pairs. Just not on different cars! Derek suspects his S124 E320 wagon (with the dogleg 5-speed and 3.6-liter swap) has bad wheel bearings, too. More urgently, Derek is having a Motronic Month: he's finally troubleshooted some strange running on his Porsche 964, which has gotten progressively worse over the last decade. He also found that one ignition module had failed, so it was running on half of its spark plugs. A new idle control valve didn't fix it, but swapping a DME (engine computer, or ECU in non-Porsche speak) from his dad's 964 fixed everything. Jason's buddy's 993 is doing the same thing — so Derek might have just inadvertently found that car's problem. Jason had never heard of rebuilding an ECU (except on Honda Beats) but thats' it. Jason's cars mostly don't have DMEs, and he's been fighting with ignition timing on both of his 16-valve Volkswagens (the Scirocco and Cabriolet) and wonders if he just should upgrade all the old cars to a Holley EFI or Megasquirt. Derek found a hard top for his R129 Mercedes SL, in Florida, but shipping was too expensive. So he found a local one in the wrong color . Jason has once done that, with the wrong color hardtop on his 996 for track use, and Derek also bought a very expensive new softtop for that SL. RIP by the way to Bruno Sacco, to Mike Valentine, and almost to Jeremy Clarkson.  The R129 SL500 / 500SL is the best deal in the collector-car world, period.  Jason did another (for a total of three) Power Acoustic CP-71W Single-DIN wireless Apple CarPlay head unit. He loves them. And that's before the $140 (+ tax) pricing. Except that he won't put one in the Mercedes 190E 2.3-16 because the Becker is too iconic. Or the Beat, because of the Gathers (Honda) head unit in there. Or the e31 850CSi. Continental and Blaupunkt make retro-looking radios, but Becker's original units can be retrofitted with Bluetooth or Aux In. Porsche Classic PCM unit is amazing, but it's far too expensive for non-Porsches. Says Jason. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If you put someone from 1985 in a modern car, what would they be most surprised by? Hint: Why is it so much easier to get a speeding ticket today? === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === The Carmudgeons chat briefly about Jake's Honda CR-Z — a manual, hybrid, very good-looking car — and why it doesn't have a K20 or K24 instead. The main point of discussion, though, was started by Jason's drive in his Scirocco looking at how high 1980s cars rev on the highway. And he explains why '80s cars are geared so short (it's to achieve their relatively low top speeds at their relatively high-rpm power peaks.) In discussing this, Jason explains how German car companies chose their top-gear ratio. (Hint: it's to maximize top speed.) But there are, of course, other major changes since the 1980s — and not just things like keyless-start and infotainment. Or just power.  NVH, mostly as a function of torsional rigidity, has changed dramatically. And with it, safety. Including things like ABS, ESC, AEB, FCW, and then of course all the other driver aids we take for granted today.  Including the ones like BAS — brake assist — which several times accidentally almost caused Jason to have a crash. (Or make someone else crash.) But... Jason does describe a few times he experienced modern automatic braking systems have actually avoided an accident that WOULD have happened. One in a VW and one in a Mercedes, that could have caused him to hit pedestrians. It was a triumph of modern safety technology. Also, cars have grown tremendously in size and weight. And the total area of the glass has shrunk considerably, so visibility has changed for the worse.  So has ride quality — today's cars have far stiffer suspension, coupled with large wheels and small sidewalls. 1980s cars often rode more smoothly than today's cars.

Un coche “fallido” no es un mal coche, al menos, no necesariamente. Porque puede que el coche no sea malo sino que, simplemente, los objetivos marcados por su fabricante sean demasiado ambiciosos. Nos vamos a centrar coches sin duda fallidos, que eran buenos coches, pero que no alcanzaron las expectativas y los objetivos que buscaban. En todos los coches os contamos cuál es nuestro argumento para considerar ese coche fallido. 1. Audi A2 (1999). El A2 es la respuesta del Audi al Mercedes Clase A.Audi puso todo de su parte y en este coche supuestamente modesto usó la misma tecnología “todo de aluminio” que había usado con éxito en el A8. La diferencia es que el A8 era un coche Premium y podía ser caro y el A2, por el segmento en que estaba, no podía ser caro… o no tanto. 2. Citroën C6 (2005). Sustituir a un mito como el DS n o era nada fácil, pero el Citroën CX creo que lo consiguió. Sustituir al sustituto de un mito era aún más difícil y el XM lo consiguió… en parte. Por prestigio puede, pero no por ventas o reconocimiento. Pero ya la cuarta vez… era muy difícil. Y el C6, un coche que os digo que era y es excelente, nunca lo consiguió. 3. Hillman Imp (1963). ¿Fallido un coche que se fabricó en más de 10 países y del que se vendieron más de 400.000 unidades? Pues sí, y hay tres motivos que os voy a detallar: Primero, el Hillman Imp nace en 1963, con motor posterior con todos los inconvenientes que tiene… Segundo, el Mini, el rival del Imp, en su primera versión triplica la producción del Imp. Tercero, el gobierno del Reino Unido insistió en montar una fábrica de este coche en Escocia… y fue un fracaso. 4. Honda FR-V (2004). Si copias a un “coche incomprendido” lo más normal es que te salga otro “coche incomprendido”. El Honda FR-V copiaba la fórmula de 3+3 plazas del Multipla, a mi modo de ver una buena idea. Pero para mí, esta vez la copia no superó al original… 5. Jaguar XJ220 (1992). La lección que Jaguar y otras marcas de coches superdeportivos aprendió con este coche es esta. “Si quieres que un superdeportivo triunfe, no escatimes en cilindros”. considerase a la vanguardia de la tecnología, que era lo que pretendía más que hacer negocio. 6. Lancia Thesis (2001). La idea era redefinir la presencia de Lancia dentro del Grupo Fiat y que se convirtieses en la marca Premium dentro del grupo y que ofreciese diseño italiano. Así que Mike Robinson, que de italiano se ve que tiene poco, y que en esos tiempos era el responsable de diseño de la marca propuso este diseño que definió como “neoclásico”. A ver, hojeando revistas de la época lo cierto es que este diseño no gustó a nadie… 7. Seat Toledo III (2004). ¿Por qué empeñarse en vender una cosa como lo que no es? Seat quería competir con este modelo con las berlinas convencionales con mayor poder, digamos, de representación… que el Toledo, no tenía. Además, como no se vendía, pero era práctico e iba muy bien, pues lo vendieron barato para Taxi… con lo cual la poca imagen de “berlina de representación” que pudiera tener, si alguna vez la tuvo, se la cargaron. 8. Studebaker Avanti (1962). Este coche es un claro ejemplo de coche fallido: Nació para salvar a la marca y, por el contrario, la condenó. Si miras el coche, que para mí es muy bonito, si te digo que era uno de los más rápidos de su época y que estaba bien hecho, la pregunta es… ¿qué pudo fallar? El diseño de Raymond Loewy, sí, el mismo que diseño la botella de la Coca-Cola, se adelantó demasiado a su tiempo… 9. VW Corrado (1989). Con el Corrado VW no proponían un sucesor del Scirocco, quería tener un Coupé de alto nivel. Y se dejaron la vida en ello, en un coche bonito, con un buen bastidor… y que tardó en tener motores a su altura.. si es que los tuvo, pues los VR6 de 2.9 litros y 190 CV, pero, para mí, este coche merecía más. Si os interesa este coche, “la Biblia” del VW Corrado es el libro “Corrado, el purasangre de Osnabrüch” escrito por mi buen amigo Miguel Ángel Águila Buchaca. 10. VW K70 (1970). El VW K70 era un NSU Ro80 con una carrocería de estética más convencional y con un motor mucho más convencional, pues el rotativo daba paso a un 4 cilindros en línea. Y sencillamente, era un coche excelente. Para mí el K70 fue un éxito pues quizás no se vendió como se merecía, pero descubrió a VW cual era el camino para el sucesor del Escarabajo… un tal “Golf”, no sé si os suena… seguro que sí. Conclusión. La frase que dice “con todos los que están, pero no están todos los que son” va como anillo al dedo para este vídeo. Veo vuestras propuestas para un segundo video en comentarios.

Jason just solved a nagging problem on his car that he paid to have fixed 26 years ago. Turns out, the mechanic charged him for a repair he didn't make. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === Jason just solved a nagging problem on his car that he paid to have fixed 26 years ago. Turns out, the mechanic charged him for a repair he didn't make. === Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === It's well known that Jason Cammisa's Volkswagen Scirocco 16V is his favorite car. What's not so well-known is that he hit a curb while driving it back in the late 1990s, and bent a control arm. After saving for over a year, he finally had the money to replace the arm, and commissioned a local repair shop to perform the work. The Scirocco came back from the alignment shop with bad news: Installing the new control arm didn't put there wheel back where it belonged. The Scirocco's frame was bent.  After living with the guilt of having damaged his favorite toy for more than a quarter-century, Jason finally got up the gumption (and money) to have the car's frame straightened.  The frame shop had some interesting news: there was nothing wrong with the car — the control arm was merely bent. Turns out the shop that charged Young Jason to replace the arm... didn't. And last week, Jason finally replaced it himself, solving a decades-long alignment issue.  This made Jason think about his first three bad experiences as a young man with a VW shop (who tried to charge him near as much in diagnostics than he'd paid for the whole car for a simple bad ground wire) a VW dealer who disconnected his headlights and tried to extort him out of hundreds... and the aforementioned shop — all of whom are responsible for encouraging Jason to do all the work on his cars himself. Derek has a similar story about a local mechanic to tried to charge him $4500 for a simple ignition coil.  Fun times. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jamie Orr joins us for a chat about all things automotive from his younger years. Growing up in Scotland there were Minis, Metros and Ford Sierras. Later on, he moved down south and was taught to drive at the legendary TRL (home of GTI International).His Dad used to restore motorbikes in a high rise flat, had a manual lathe from a submarine, and bought a Lotus Elise as his company car! But both of his parents are petrol heads - now driving a VW Beetle and Mk4 Golf with BBS alloys! We touch on the DVLA in Swansea, how this may have been a 'gift' from the Government in lieu of closing the coal mines. In fact the DVLA was formed in Swansea in 1965 and the mines closed in the 1980's but it was a nice theory!We also speak about how Jamie got into VWs (his grandparents Scirocco Storm may have been a slight influence) but he bought his first when he moved to the USA. We hope you enjoy these tales and many more in this great episode.

Maxi Blitz Dei Carabinieri: L'Operazione Scirocco È Un Successo!Una grande operazione chiamata "Scirocco" è stata effettuata dall'Arma dei Carabinieri attraverso un maxi blitz. Ecco che cosa è successo!#breakingnews #ultimenotizie #notiziedelgiorno #notizie #cronaca #blitz #carabinieri #operazionescirocco #successo

Have you ever wondered what drives your decisions, what fuels your motivation to stick to a workout plan, or why certain foods seem irresistible? The answer might surprise you – it's all about a powerful brain chemical called dopamine. This neurotransmitter plays a crucial role in our everyday behavior and choices, often without us even realizing it. In this article, we'll delve into how dopamine influences your adherence to exercise and nutrition programs, what causes its levels to fluctuate, and, most importantly, what you can do to optimize dopamine levels for better health and well-being. As a health and fitness enthusiast, you might already know that maintaining a healthy lifestyle isn't just about willpower – it's about understanding and working with your body's natural processes. That's what we aim to uncover here. So, whether you're looking to boost your motivation, improve your mood, or simply understand your body better, you're in the right place. Let's dive into the world of dopamine and discover how this crucial neurotransmitter can be your ally in achieving your health and fitness goals. What is Dopamine? - Understanding the Basics Dopamine, often referred to as the "feel-good" neurotransmitter, is a chemical messenger vital for conveying signals in the brain. It's produced in various parts of the brain, including the substantia nigra and the ventral tegmental area.Schultz, W. (2007). Multiple dopamine functions at different time courses. Annual Review of Neuroscience, 30, 259-288. But dopamine is more than just a messenger of pleasure; it's a critical component in your ability to think, plan, focus, and find things interesting. The production of dopamine starts with the amino acid tyrosine. Tyrosine undergoes a series of transformations, eventually becoming dopamine. Once produced, dopamine travels through different pathways in the brain, each influencing various aspects of behavior and physical function.Wise, R. A. (2004). Dopamine, learning and motivation. Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 5(6), 483-494. Interestingly, dopamine is not just confined to the brain. A substantial portion is also produced in the gut. This gut-derived dopamine is pivotal in regulating gastrointestinal motility and ensuring the proper functioning of the digestive system.Eisenhofer, G., Aneman, A., Friberg, P., Hooper, D., Fåndriks, L., Lonroth, H., … & Lundberg, J. (1997). Substantial production of dopamine in the human gastrointestinal tract. Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 82(11), 3864-3871 The gut-brain axis, a communication network linking the gut and the brain, suggests that the dopamine produced in the gut could also have indirect effects on mood and behavior.Carabotti, M., Scirocco, A., Maselli, M. A., & Severi, C. (2015). The gut-brain axis: interactions between enteric microbiota, central and enteric nervous systems. Annals of Gastroenterology, 28(2), 203. Dopamine doesn't work in isolation. It interacts with neurotransmitters like serotonin and norepinephrine, creating a delicate balance affecting everything from your mood to your motor skills.Carlsson, A. (1959). The occurrence, distribution and physiological role of catecholamines in the nervous system. Pharmacological Reviews, 11(2), 490-493. In general, dopamine is central to motivating behavior by signaling the anticipation of a reward. It's involved in various functions, including memory, attention, mood, learning, and even motor control.Berridge, K. C., & Robinson, T. E. (1998). What is the role of dopamine in reward: hedonic impact, reward learning, or incentive salience? Brain Research Reviews, 28(3), 309-369. Dopamine's Influence on Exercise and Nutrition Adherence As we've seen, dopamine is a key player in the brain's reward system. But how exactly does this translate to our exercise and nutrition habits? Exercise-induced dopamine release creates a feedback loop in your brain. When you exercise,

It's time for a quick Carmudgeon Catch-Up. The boys have been busy filming, but they're back in the studio for a session to discuss what's been going on. And, it turns out, to ponder what life would be like with only two cars. == This episode of “The Carmudgeon Show” is presented by Valentine One Radar Locator: Find radar before it finds you! https://bit.ly/Valentine1_Hagerty Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-ICONS == The updates are many! Jason's Dodge Grand Caravan finally got the custom license plate he ordered almost a year ago – and its innocent profanity is making him laugh.  Beatrice the E30 325i is back on the road after a double-suspension swap with Jason's 325i Touring. Thanks to help from the legendary Bill Arnold Independent BMW, the Spec E30 kit is now on Beatrice, complete with a new clutch and throw-out bearing, and she's ready for track days and rallies. And, of course, taking Jason's niece to Thunderhill Raceway's Teen Survival driving school. Where G learned just how it feels to be in low-earth orbit.  And the 325iT switched back to factory antiroll bars with H&R's new springs, tuned specifically for E30 Touring, and Bilstein B8 shocks that were a gift from our friend Sreten at M539 Restoration in Germany.  Meanwhile, Jason also went to Radwood SoCal 2023, where he gave away a gorgeous set of RML Snowflake wheels to a deserving Scirocco fan. He also met @outlaw_welt — a fan and a gentleman who 3D-printed a bunch of Carmudgeon Show and Jason Cammisa Hagerty Show logo pieces. And gave Jason a ride to the airport in his C126 500SEC 6-speed manual.  Of course, no Carmudgeon Show would be complete without a discussion of Sacco-era Mercedes, and the boys successfully put on a Cars & Coffee in Berkeley on Bruno Sacco's 90th Birthday. More than 100 cars showed up, including almost a dozen W124 500Es. Quite an achievement — and Happy Birthday, Mr. Sacco! Meanwhile, Jason will have just completed his third 24 Hours of Lemons race at Sonoma Raceway (wish him luck and safety) with Bill Arnold and Randy Pobst. The last time they ran this race, 2 years ago, they won overall in their tired, battered E28 BMW. And Derek has major news to share: he's parting ways with ISSIMI to start his own dealership. Daihatsu? Daewoo? Either way, Derek will be peddling the Cheapest D in Town! Details to follow! And he spent a couple days driving his brother's Rivian R1S. Derek's bro has what could possibly be the best 2-car solution ever: an ND2 Miata and a Rivian. This leads the boys to discuss: what would happen if they had to get down to just two cars. Would Jason keep just the Scirocco and the Ferrari? What else?  And could Derek actually do it? The Carmudgeon Show is part of the Hagerty Podcast Network. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dopo un paio di giornate fredde e soleggiate dove si sono viste diffuse gelate anche in pianura, arriva il maltempo. Le correnti che accompagnano questo primo impulso perturbato sono umide e miti, data la componente meridionale, ma date le basse temperature, inizialmente nevicherà a bassa quota, non in pianura dove pioverà da subito, ma in collina.

A causa di una nuova perturbazione che sta per abbattersi sul nostro Paese oggi la protezione civile ha diramato allerta rossa in Emilia-Romagna soprattutto sull'Appennino emiliano l'allarme è anche per pericolo frane. Allerta arancione in altre cinque regioni italiane: Toscana, Veneto, Liguria, Lombardia e Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

For our 21st episode we dig out our first recording ever. On this episode of Dads with Cars, the boys learn their way around recording a podcast. Cam witnesses the magic that a Porsche SUV can be, Ben squeezes himself into the trunk of a Scirocco and Evan walks us through his history of cars and trucks. Hosted on Acast.

Hoy te vamos a hablar de coches que estoy seguro que no conocéis, al menos no todos. Porque antes de que VW llegase a diseñar y fabricar el Volkswagen Golf, un modelo que la salvó de la ruina, dio muchos palos de ciego… Os contamos una parte de esta historia en el vídeo titulado “Cuándo VW casi se arruina” que te aconsejo ver, pero como siempre, vamos a comenzar esta historia por el principio… bueno, más bien por la mitad… nos vamos a los años 60. “VW se ha quedado dormida”. No, esto no lo digo yo, lo dijo la prensa por culpa de unas declaraciones del ministro alemán de finanzas, Franz-Josep Strauss, quién culpó al presidente de VW en ese momento, Nordhoff de no aprovechar los momentos de bonanza para diseñar nuevos modelos. Si os preguntáis que pintaba el ministro alemán de finanzas en todo esto, os recuerdo que VW nace como una empresa perteneciente al estado alemán y al de Baja Sajonia y que en estos años aún un 40 por ciento de la empresa era de titularidad pública. ¡Era necesario un sustituto del Escarabajo! Vaya por delante que, en este momento, el nombre de Golf no existía... pero lo uso para simplificar, porque lo que buscaba VW era un sustituto del Escarabajo, que acabo siendo el Golf. Pero antes hubo otros intentos, raros, locos, curiosos… y todos fallidos. Y os lo vamos a contar y os lo vamos a enseñar. P603 Sachsenring AWZ. Ahora cuesta creerlo, pero en 1963 en VW pensaron que la tecnología de Trabant podía ser la solución. Alguno se reirá, pero el Trabant P603 tenía rasgos de modernidad, como su tracción delantera o su carrocería parcialmente de Duroplast, como en tradicional Trabant 601. EA 235 y 235a. En 1967 se proponen dos prototipos desde luego originales y con un rasgo en común: Abandonaban el motor bóxer de refrigeración por aire por un cuatro cilindros de agua de diseño Audi… en realidad que había diseñado Audi con la ayuda de Mercedes... como veis… ¡todo un lio! EA266 Porsche. Este prototipo fruto del trabajo conjunto de los ingenieros de NSU y de Porsche era muy original, tanto que llevaba el motor… ¡central! La disposición era curiosa, con el motor bajo los asientos traseros a un lado, con los accesorios al otro lado. De esta forma se pretendía maximizar el aprovechamiento del espacio interior. Pero el coche era alto, ruidoso en su interior y caro de fabricar. ES 276 VW. Este prototipo es un paso atrás, básicamente retomar el 235 y actualizarlo… pero este modelo no sedujo a nadie… hay que encontrar otra vía… EA 337 Giugiaro-Italdesign. La situación en VW comienza a ser desesperada… Y entra en escena Giugiaro, que hacia dos que había creado su propia empresa, Italdesign, encadenaba éxito tras éxito y tenía fama de rápido y resolutivo. VW llevaba 25 años buscando un sustituto al Escarabajo, y en 1970 hubo una reunión entre la dirección de la marca y Giorgetto y el mensaje fue claro: “Haz lo que quieras, pero hazlo rápido”. Y con todo este lio se llega a 1972 cuando sucede algo que supone un mazazo para la compañía: Opel supera en ventas en Alemania a VW que, recordemos, que venía de tener un “cuasi” monopolio una década antes. Pero en esos años pasa cosas buenas. Muy buenas, diría yo. Y es que VW compra Auto Union que a su vez era dueña de NSU y que ya tenía coches de tracción y motor delanteros, en concreto el precioso NSU Ro80 que dio lugar el primer VW refrigerado por agua: El VW K70. VW ya lo tenía todo: Un motor de 4 cilindros refrigerado por agua, un chasis de tracción delantera y una carrocería muy bonita de diseño italiano... con retoques alemanes… ¿Qué faltaba? Ya habían lanzado el Passat y el Scirocco, nombres de vientos. Se planteó el nombre de Caribe y finalmente se eligió el de Blizzard... que afortunadamente estaba registrado por una marca de esquís. Y a pesar del pomo con pelotita de Golf, se eligió el nombre de Golf en referencia a la corriente del Golf, “Golf Strom” en alemán…

Antes de la llegada de los dos modelos “salvadores” de la marca, el Boxster en 1996 y luego el Cayenne en 2002, Porsche tenía un grave problema: La “911dependencia”. Una historia interesante, porque muchas veces intento romper esa dependencia de un solo modelo… y muchas veces fracasó. Confieso que esta historia me gusta por muchos motivos: Porque me gustan los coches incomprendidos… sobre todo cuando son tan buenos coches. Porque me gusta Porsche y porque muchos de esos modelos fracasados e injustamente tratados eran y son excelentes coches y con méritos suficientes para lucir esa marca. Lo que Porsche ha hecho, con enorme éxito, es pasar de ser una marca que dependía casi de un solo modelo a atreverse con todo: Por supuesto deportivos, SUV de todos los tamaños, berlinas, coches Diesel, híbrido, eléctricos… Y le ha ido muy bien. Todo comenzó con el Boxster nacido en 1996. Este coche tenía dos singularidades muy interesantes para ser un Porsche deportivo: Motor central, que Porsche un usaba en un modelo básico desde 20 años antes y el hecho de haber nacido como descapotable. Y más tarde llegó la revolución, el Porsche Cayenne, el primer Porsche que no era verdaderamente un coche deportivo. El éxito fue clamoroso, porque mucha gente “con posibles” quería tener un Porsche en su garaje, pero un Porsche cómodo, amplia y de cuatro puertas laterales… Porsche 914. A finales de los 60 VW y Porsche no eran la misma empresa, como ahora, pero si tenían muy buena relación, porque Porsche, antes y ahora, además del negocio de la fabricación de coche tiene el negocio de la “venta” de ingeniería. Porsche ya buscaba un sustituto para su 911 y VW un sustituto para el ya “viejo” Karmann Ghia, un coche precioso, pero ya antiguo camino de los años 70. En VW encargaron el diseño a Porsche, pero a Porsche le gustó mucho su propio diseño, una historia que más tarde se repetirá. Y pensaron, ¿qué pasa si hacemos un coche que nos valga a los dos? Así nació el 914, diseñado por Porsche, pero que equipaba motores VW o Porsche. Porsche 924. La historia casi se repite. Porque es parecida. Llegamos a mediados de los 70 y nuevamente el grupo VW quiere un coche deportivo y nuevamente le encarga el diseño a Porsche, que diseña un bonito coupé con motor delantero y cambio atrás para mejorar el reparto de pesos, el famoso sistema “transaxle”. Nace el VW de código interno 425. VW se echa atrás… acabarían diseñando su propio coupé sobre la base del Golf, el Scirocco. Pagan el diseño del 924 para meterlo en un cajón. Pero a Porsche su propio diseño les había gustado mucho y se lo recompran al VW y en 1975 lanzan el 924 con un motor de origen VW de 2 litros y 125 CV. Pocos coches en la historia han sido tan injustamente tratados. Porsche trata de “reflotar” el modelo con el 924 S con motor Porsche de 4 cilindros, 2.5 litros y 150 CV e incluso con un “Turbo” de 170 CV… pero entre uno y otros, el coche no triunfa… Bueno, según se mire fabricaron en 10 años 83.000 coches, una cifra lejana a las previsiones… Y el 924 evoluciona y se convierte en el… Porsche 944. En 1982 se produce una “huida hacia adelante” propiciada por los vendedores de Porsche que seguían viendo con buenos ojos un Porsche “asequible” … Rodrigo, no te olvides de las comillas. Lo más interesante de este coche era su motor que no era un diseño nuevo, sino “medio V8”. Porsche había fabricado un fantástico V8 de 5.0 litros para su 928 y si usabas la mitad tenías un sensacional 4 cilindros de 2,5 litros. Por supuesto hubo versiones S, S2 y el turbo, con 217 CV. Tampoco tuvo el éxito esperado, pero Porsche no daba su brazo a torcer y lanzaba otra evolución… el… Porsche 968. Ni más ni menos que un 924 con motor de 944 llevado a los 3 litros y estética de 928… Este modelo llega en 1992 y para mí era un coche verdaderamente “redondo”, bueno como deportivo, como GT, refinado, con un comportamiento intachable y un acabado extraordinario… El motor era una joya, un 4 cilindros atmosférico de 3 litros, con bielas y pistones forjados, árboles de equilibrado, sistema de distribución variable “VarioCam” y 240 progresivos y eficaces caballos. Una maravilla… pero muchos, no solo “Porschistas” sino periodistas y aficionados no le perdonaban a este coche tener “solo” cuatro cilindros. ¿Fue un fracaso? Pues sí y no, pero desde luego, desde mi punto de vista no tuvo el éxito que merecía y creo que aún hoy es un coche no tan valorado como debería. Aunque poco a poco los aficionados están dándose cuenta de lo buen coche que es. Porsche 928. Lo primero que hay que decir del 928 es que es un coche absolutamente excepcional. Un proyecto tan ambicioso como, probablemente, equivocado. Me explico: El mercado más importante de Porsche cuando se presentó el 928 en 1977 era los USA. El 911 era un coche caro, no muy amplio, incómodo y para unos difícil de conducir, para otros directamente peligroso. Y Porsche quiso, de nuevo, sustituir al menos parcialmente al 991 ofreciendo un modelo que, de alguna manera, era un “guiño” al estilo americano: Mayor tamaño, mucho más habitable y cómodo, con motor V8 y mucho más “dócil” que el 911. Y muchos pensamos que se equivocó. Porque el que tenía un Porsche en los USA no solo presumía de rico, también de ser una personal dinámica, joven al menos de espíritu, con buenos reflejos y buen conductor. Ese “aura” de coche difícil para hombres con carácter ofrecía mucho atractivo. Y no le faltaban argumentos. El motor V8 de 4,5 litros desarrollaba “solo”; con comillas, 240 CV, pero un enorme par. Ha podido ver este motor desmontado y es una joya, parece una obra de orfebrería más que de mecánica. La versión GTS llegó a los 347 CV. Como curiosidad hubo un prototipo de 4 puertas, al estilo del Mazda RX8 o el BMW i3, el denominado “Estudio H50” que se adelantó 20 años al Panamera. Pese a todas sus cualidades, el 928 no acabó de triunfar ni en los USA ni mucho menos en Europa, se vendieron entre 1977 y 1995 menos de 60.000 unidades. Conclusión. El año que viene el Porsche 911 cumplirá 60 años. Pero Porsche ya no tiene ni prisa ni necesidad de buscar un sustituto… ni creo que lo haga en muchos años. Porque Porsche tiene ahora una gama en la que hay de todo… y es la marca más rentable del Mundo. Al final va a ser cierto que se aprende más de los fracasos que de los éxitos. Coche del día. Sin duda el 928 GTS de 5,4 litros y 350 CV… un coche que pude probar y que fue el primer coche con el que sobrepasé los 250 km/h.

Andy and Jon chat with an ex colleague of Andy's, Tim Crighton.Tim grew up with his Dad running a race team, and competing around the country. He was also lucky enough to benefit from his Dad starting a Kart circuit, which led him to get behind the wheel himself aged just 7.Fast toward twenty something years from his debut in T cars and he's just competed at Goodwood Members Meeting in two different vehicles, much to his Dad's delight as "wire wheels and carburettors are best".This discussion takes in a Rover 827, a couple of Mk2 Golf GTIs, a Scirocco, a Calibra and a few different vans as well. It also gets philosophical, and dabbles with vehicle investments too. It's a gem!We hope you enjoy it.Andy and Jon. Support the showWe'd love you to hear and share your stories, please tag and follow us on social media. www.instagram.com/mydadscar_podcastwww.Facebook.com/mydadscar podcastwww.buymeacoffee.com/mydadscarIf you'd like to support the podcast and are able to, you can ‘buy us a coffee' which will help towards costs of hosting and purchasing equipment to allow us to record guests in person, rather than just on zoom.

Siempre hablamos de que muchos de los nuevos modelos tienen una evidente falta de personalidad… esa es una cara de la moneda. La otra: Muchos de los que se van o ya se han ido, sí que tienen personalidad… ¡Y ya los echamos de menos! Me he dado cuenta de que 7 de los 10 son coupés o deportivos y 9 de las 10 tres puertas… Vamos con la lista de coches que, al menos yo, voy a echar de menos... algunos mucho de menos. 1. Alfa Romeo 4C (2013) Esta el primero y en un coche que echo de menos, más o menos, desde 2018. ¿Por qué? Porque intenté comprarme uno, una unidad concreta que era el de pruebas de prensa de Fiat en España. Incluso me dieron precio… pero alguien, de la casa, se me adelantó… ¡qué pena! 2. Dodge Viper SRT (2016) El Dodge Viper, a pesar de ser un coche moderno, aparecido en 1991 y fabricado hasta 2017 puede considerarse, con todos los honores, como un verdadero y legendario deportivo americano. En mi opinión las señas de identidad de esta auténtica bestia son dos: Una, su estética, que te puede gustar o no, pero que impresiona… al natural, os lo aseguro, mucho más que en foto. La segunda seña de identidad, su motor: Nada de un V8, sino en “pedazo” de V10 que en la versión SRT de 2016 ofrecía 654 CV… probé este coche y me impresionó… desde luego no era un coche fácil, pero… 3. Lancia Ypsilon 2ª generación (2011) En este caso, la desaparición fue doble, ya que en 2014 desaparecía no solo el Ypsilon sino la marca Lancia… que parece que va a volver. Sería muy buena noticia. 4. Mazda RX7 III (1992) Hablo de la 3ª y última generación y pese a ello es el más antiguo de esta lista. ¿Y por qué está? Primero, porque es un coche excepcional por estética, comportamiento y tecnología… yo diría que irrepetible. Luego, porque me llamo la atención que en un estudio que hizo la compañía británica de seguros GoShorty analizando las búsquedas en Google y el número de hashtag relacionados con diferentes modelos, este modelo ocupaba el numero 3 de esa lista… impresionante… 5. Nissan 370 Z (2008) Por desgracia en esta lista hay dos Nissan desaparecidos casi a la vez. No sé, imagino que Nissan sabe mejor que nadie lo que le conviene, pero es una pena que una marca que ha sido siempre, bien como Nissan o como Datsun, ser un referente Mundial entre los coches deportivos, renuncie a este tipo de coches. 6. Nissan GT-R (2007) No sé si más pena me da aún el GT-R, auténtico mata-gigantes y que se erigió en un duro rival entre otras marcas, de Porsche. Nos dejó en 2022 pero ya antes se “masticaba” la tragedia. Una verdadera pena. 7. Range Rover Evoque Coupé (2011) Un SUV coupé…,una versión inteligente porque su denominación coupé provenía de sus dos puertas laterales, no de una luneta absurdamente tendida. La razón de que se dejase de fabricar: Solo el 5 por ciento de los Evoque vendidos eran de 3 puertas. 8. Seat León III SC (2012) Otro coche que da pena. Porque el León III fue el primer Seat León con carrocería de 3 puertas, que muchos echábamos de menos... y ha desaparecido en 2018. Como fin de fiesta hubo una versión especial SC FR Limited Edition con motor TSi de 125 CV que se vendió a muy buen precio… y que seguro se cotizará, en su momento, como clásico. 9. Škoda Yeti (2009) ¿Un SUV entre la lista de coches que echo de menos? Pues sí. Me gusta la marca Škoda, aunque con todo el lío con la probable desaparición de Seat, no me gustaría cogerle manía. Pero este SUV, que no era demasiado SUV y era un buen coche para ciudad, me hizo “tilín”, lo confieso. Entre otras cosas por su estética… 10. Volkswagen Scirocco (2008) Otro coche desaparecido en 2017. A ver, os confieso que nunca me entusiasmo el último Scirocco, que veía demasiado próximo en prestaciones e incluso en estética, al Golf…Pero después de casi diez años VW ya no lo ofrece… y le echo de menos. VW no lo da por muerto y anuncia, yo diría “amenaza” …con un futuro posible regreso transformado en coche eléctrico. Conclusión. Estaba pensando que a lo mejor alguno echa de menos a otros VW, como la reencarnación de Beetle … yo no… Nunca me pareció un buen “remake”. Pero sí hay otros coches que echamos de menos… seguro que con vuestra ayuda, podemos hacer una segunda versión de este video… Coche del día. He elegido uno que podía haber estado en la lista, el Peugeot 208 GTi, con sus tres puertas. Estuve en la presentación en Niza de este coche de 204 CV y un bastidor de excelente puesta a punto… ya no lo encontrarás en la Web oficial para configurarlo… Otro 3 puertas casi coupé que ya empezamos a echar de menos…

Lots of cars are named after a geographic location. Many cars are named after a place you'd never see them. We discuss them all. In this episode of The Carmudgeon Show, Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Hyphen-Scott discuss cars named after places! But first, an update on some of the boys' cars: Derek's R129 Mercedes 500SL finally has rebuilt hydraulic cylinders — and a functioning roof. Jason's W201 Mercedes 190E 2.3-16 has had a rearview mirror blowout. Jason decides he hates his Scirocco after working on the interior for a few hours — and then dropped it off at the body shop to have its frame measured for straightness because he still loves it. Derek's Citroën still doesn't run. Jason signed up for an autocross in his Lotus Elise SC and can't decide whether to run the Michelin Pilot Sport All-Season 3+ tires, or put the original Yokohamas back on. But then - they got to the subject at hand: Cars named after places! And we made a comprehensive list of every car named after a place. Over 100 of them! Here they are. EVERY CAR NAMED AFTER A PLACE!

¡Hablemos de los años ’90! Fueron buenos tiempos y había muchos modelos coupé. ¿Buenos tiempos? Pues entonces muchos aficionados decían que eran un timo, que esos coupés, denominados “industriales”, eran berlinas “disfrazadas” con una carrocería mona y un motor ligeramente potenciado. Muchos de esos coupés están ahora a precios asequibles. ¿Timo u oportunidad? El concepto de deportivos industriales se comenzó a acuñar en Europa sobre todo con el Ford Capri… que a su vez no dejaba de ser una versión “a la europea” del Ford Mustang. ¿Por qué esa denominación? Muy sencillo, porque sobre el mismo chasis-plataforma del Ford Cortina, una berlina media, Ford propuso una carrocería coupé muy bonito y que fue un acierto. Un verdadero coupé, sí, pero ¿un verdadero deportivo? Si tenemos en cuenta que las versiones más vendidas eran las de motor de 1.3, 55 CV y la de 1.6 de 88 CV para un peso de más de 1.000 kg… pues muy deportivos no eran. Para mí, con excepciones contadas, los coupés son los coches más bonitos. Para mí y para mucha gente que se los compra por imagen y por su belleza y no tanto por sus prestaciones. Por eso, para mí, muchos de estos coupés de los 90 más que un timo, por no ser verdaderos deportivos, son una verdadera oportunidad para comprar coches clásicos o pre-clásicos muy interesantes y a veces a mejor precio. 1. Alfa Romeo GTV (1995) Lo vi en su estreno en el Salón de Ginebra de 1995. Sí, es cierto, es tracción delantera, ¡como todos los de esta lista! Pero con un interior tan bonito y con el motor V6 de tres litros, 24 válvulas y 220 CV, ¡no me digáis que no os gusta! 2. Audi Coupé B2 (1988) Confieso que me gusta más el B1, para entendernos, el coupé en el que está basado el Audi Quattro. Pero es de 1981 y el B2 se fabricó entre 1988 y 1997. También confieso que, estéticamente, puede que sea el menos atractivo, pero es un coche fiable y bien acabado. 3. Fiat Coupé (1993) Este diseño del estadounidense Chris Bangle no deja indiferente. Unos lo adoran y otros lo odian.. Confieso que ahora me gusta más que cuando salió. El que cuenta con el motor 5 cilindros, 20 válvulas y turbo, de 220 CV es un verdadero tiro y una compra recomendable. 4. Ford Probe (1988) Otro caso de un coche que fue y quizás siga siendo todo un “patito feo” … Este modelo, fruto de los acuerdos de Ford con Mazda, contaba con la plataforma nada menos que del RX7 y estaba bien terminado y con buenos ajustes. 5. Ford Puma (1997) Ya sabéis que yo no os engañó nunca… me puedo confundir, pero digo siempre lo que pienso… y ahora lo voy a decir… ¡no me gusta nada el Ford Puma! Y es que creo que, para lucir, todos los coches, pero los coupés también, hay un tamaño mínimo. Y, lo sé, el Puma no es pequeño, mide 4 metros de largo, como otros coches de esta lista. ¡pero parece encogido e hinchado! 6. Opel Calibra (1989) El Calibra sí que ha salido del purgatorio por el que pasan todos los coupés generalistas, por la puerta grande y ahora es un modelo cotizado…. Y con razón. En su momento toda la prensa dijimos que era el Opel de tracción delantera con mejor comportamiento de la historia, y es que este Coupé, supuestamente derivado del Astra iba mucho mejor. 7. Peugeot 406 Coupé (1997) Peugeot tenía ya tradición de hacer coupés derivados de las berlinas y diseñados por Pininfarina. Me encantaba el 504 berlina y más aún el 504 Coupé V6, diseño de Pininfarina. Con una buena base, el 406 ,y un buen diseñador… 8. Volkswagen Corrado (1989) Iba a llamarse Typhoon y situarse por encima del Scirocco. Pero no se llamó Typhoon ni llegó a situarse, claramente, por encima de su antecesor y a la vez coetáneo. Era claramente más pesado que el Scirocco y eso se notaba. 9. Volkswagen Scirocco II (1982) Es un coche fantástico pues, aunque está basado en el Golf GTi MK1 su bastidor, por explicarlo de forma sencilla, está a medio camino entre el Golf MK1 y MK2 y su comportamiento solo puede clasificarse de fantástico. 10. Volvo 480 (1986) Me encanta el P1800 Coupé de 1961 y este personalísimo 480 con tres puertas que pude ver en primicia en el Salón de Ginebra de 1986. El Turbo, con motor 1.7 litros y 120 CV daba mucho juego, era un motor agradable y un coche bien acabado… no me importaría nada tener uno. Coche del día. Cuando hablo de coches de los 80 y 90 me acuerdo de mi etapa de probador. Y recordando estos coches me he acordado de un coupé, muy especial, que me encantó: El Mazda MX3. Era, y seguramente siga siendo, el motor V6 de coche más pequeño del mercado, un V6 de 1.8 litros y 136 CV.

Episode 91 The Silent Episode Playlist Morton Feldman, “Intersection” (1953) from First Recordings: 1950s (1999 Mode). Feldman, like Cage, had already been a proponent of including silence in his pieces. Feldman was a part of the Project of Music for Magnetic Tape (1951 to 1954), an artist's collective founded by Cage to explore experiments in magnetic tape music. From this period came several works, the most famous of which was Williams Mix (1952) by Cage. For Williams Mix, Cage commissioned the recording of hundreds of taped sounds by Louis and Bebe Barron and then specified how to splice them together using a daunting 192-page graphical composition created using chance operations. Cage conceived the work for eight tracks of magnetic tape played simultaneously. The other members of the collective, in addition to helping edit Williams Mix, also created some unique works of their own using the same library of sounds. Feldman was one of these composers but took a decidedly different approach than Cage. For Intersection, Feldman used a graphic score composed of a grid, a method he had been testing for various instrumental works such as Intersections No. 1 for Piano (1951). The score could be likened to a sheet of graph paper with one row assigned to each of the eight channels. Each square, or cell, of each row represented a unit of time to be occupied by either a sound or silence. The sounds were assigned only as numbers representing the lengths of tape snippets to be used, thus regulating the duration of individual sounds. The sequence and simultaneity of the audio was dictated by the “intersection” of sounds and silences across the columns of the score. The realization of the piece was left in the hands of Cage and Earle Brown, who assembled the tape segments by following the grid score. The choice of sounds drawn from the tape library was left to the executors of the score. Whereas Cage had not actually specified the use of silence in the score of Williams Mix, Feldman clearly had, and this is evident from the result. Speaking about the piece later, Feldman famously said that he “loathed the sound of electronic music.” He disliked the labor of executing a piece by cutting up magnetic tape and didn't feel the result was justifiably unique. He also said, “John [Cage] says that experimental music is where the outcome cannot be foreseen. . . . After my first adventure in electronic music, its outcome was foreseen.” 3:24 John Cage Variations I from Darmstadt Aural Documents Box 2 – Communication (2012 NEOS). Two Pianos, Electronics, Radio Sets, David Tudor, John Cage. This German disc is part of the Darmstadt Aural Documents projects and features recordings from 1958. This track was of the European premiere of Variations 1 and was recorded at the International Ferienkurse für Neue Musik Darmstadt September 3, 1958. This track is enlightening because it not only contains a work by Cage with purposefully scored silences, albeit by chance operations, but is also a live recording with an audience. You can clearly hear how the audience responds during the silent passages, mostly in their bemusement. Whereas the implied humor was unintentional, I often experienced this phenomenon while seeing a Cage performance. I wanted to include this as an example of what can happen when silence becomes part of a live performance. Chance operations were used to determine the placement and duration of silences. 8:50 John Cage, “WBAI” (1960) from Early Electronic And Tape Music (2014 Sub Rosa). Sine wave oscillator, record player, synthesizer, radio. Description of the piece from the score in the Edition Peters catalogue (1962) of Cage's works: “Certain operations may be found impossible e.g., 3 or 4 at once. Let the operator do what he can without calling in assistants.” Chance operations were used to determine the placement and duration of silences. This performance for sine wave oscillator, record player, synthesizer, radio. Not performed by Cage and recorded in 2013 by participants following the score. Originally presented on WBAI (NY) as a solo work scored for performance with Cage's lecture ("Where Are We Going? And What Are We Doing?"). From the comments of the score: “This composition may be used in whole or in part by an operator of machines.” Personnel on this disc include, Square-wave oscillator, Auxiliary Sounds, Radio, Robert Worby; Performer, Langham Research Centre Auxiliary Sounds, Cassette, Open-reel tape, Radio, Iain Chambers; Synthesizer, Auxiliary Sounds, Spoken Word, Philip Tagney; Turntables, Auxiliary Sounds, Open-reel tape, Felix Carey. 7:04 John Cage, David Tudor, “Klangexperimente (Sound Experiment)” 1963 from Siemens-Studio Für Elektronische Musik (1998 Siemens Kultur Programm). Interesting collection of tracks by a variety of artists invited to explore the technological possibilities of the early "Studio for Electronic Music" built and run by Siemens since 1956 in Munich and Ulm. In the case of the Cage piece, both Cage and Tudor programmed this work using punch cards, an early computer control device. Chance operations were used to determine the placement and duration of silences. 1:58 Henri Pousseur, “Scambi (Exchanges)” (1957) from Panorama Des Musiques Expérimentales (1964 Philips) is an electronic music tape composition by the Belgian composer , realized in 1957 at the Studio di Fonologia musicale di Radio Milano. Pousseur fluidly added silence patches throughout this piece, using them to create tension due to their unpredictable nature. This is an analog recording, so the silences include an abundance of tape hiss. 6:27 Ton Bruynèl, “Reflexen (Reflexes)” (1961) from Anthology of Dutch Electronic Tape Music: Volume 1 (1955-1966) (1978 Composer's Voice). Recorded in Bruynèl private electronic music studio. Another tape work that shows the potential for splicing in silence as a tool of the composer. The silences are carefully added from about the 2:14 to 4:00 mark to underscore the accelerating pace of the music. Note that the original recording has rumble from what sounds like a turntable, plus tape hiss, so the “silences” are not as abject as they are in digital recordings. 4:41 MEV (Musica Elettronica Viva), “Spacecraft” from Live Electronic Music Improvised (1970 Mainstream). Performers, Alan Bryant, Alvin Curran, Frederic Rzewski, Ivan Vandor, Richard Teitelbaum (Moog Modular synthesizer). The liner notes described the following editing process for this album that includes the random insertion of silent passages within the recorded live tracks: “The tape has been edited and interspersed with silence in accordance with a random number programme to give a representative cross-section of a concert lasting two hours.” 19:50 Maggi Payne, “Scirocco” from Crystal (1986 Lovely Music Ltd.). Composed, engineered, performed by Maggi Payne. This beautiful piece of ghostly, haunting sounds is long enough to create an expectation of a continuous soundscape, only to two drop off in two spots to present long silent or nearly silent passages. 10:26 Mika Vainio, “In a Frosted Lake” from Aíneen Musta Puhelin = Black Telephone Of Matter (2009 Touch). Produced and recorded in Berlin 2008. This piece seems to be about amplitude and inaudible frequencies, frameworked by silences. There is a pattern of eight peak tones from the start to the end of the piece. In between these peaks are quieter sounds and silences, with a tension that leans toward achieving a silent state. 5:53 Giancarlo Mangini, “September 14, 2020, from 4.50a.m. to 5.02a.m. ...and remember what peace there may be in silence” from Electronic Music Philosophy, Vol. 27: Silence (2020 Bandcamp). From the twenty-seventh collection of tracks from the collective known as Electronic Music Philosophy (Tustin, California) came this disc devoted to works composed using silence as a principal technique. In this work, there is a steady pattern of silences from start to finish, but the duration of the silences gradually increases in many instances as the work progresses. 11:38 Richard Chartier, “Herein, Then” from Other Materials(2002 3Particles). This disc includes is a compilation of tracks and unreleased works from 1999-2001. Limited to 500 copies. Composed, produced, programmed, and performed by Richard Chartier. As with many of his tracks, Chartier explores the outer reaches of human hearing. Many of the sounds in this track cannot be heard when played on loudspeakers with even moderate background noise. There are actually only two spots of abject, digital silence in this track, although due to the low frequency and amplitude of many of the other electronic tones, you might think there in nothing there. This is a clever, psychological trick. 5:02 Marina Rosenfeld, “Formal Arrangement” from Plastic Materials (2009 Room40). Composed and performed by Marina Rosenfeld. Among the various commissions found on this disc is this solo electronic work. A pattern of silences in which 25 evenly-spaced sound events, mostly gong- or bell-like tones, are each followed by a fade and then a discrete, abject silence. 2:35 Tetsu Inoue, “Super Digital” from Fragment Dots (2000 Tzadik). Composed, Programmed by Tetsu Inoue. I knew Tetsu and he would probably be embarrassed to know that I counted every conceivable “digital” silence in this special piece of music. There are 293 of them that I think one can perceive. Many are short, but because silence is an important structural component of this work, I thought it warranted a fresh listen. The longest of these silences is but 2.5 seconds. The shortness of all the tones, either audible or silent, works together to form a unity. 3:39 Miki Yui, “Balloon” from Small Sounds (1999 BMP Lab). Composed, engineered, and performed by Miki Yui. Recorded in Cologne, Germany. The composer wrote, “small sounds are to merge and fuse with your acoustic environment—please play in a transparent level; in different atmosphere.” In this piece, the silences are placed in the middle of sounds to break up an otherwise continuous noise. 2:57 Opening background music: Mooshzoom, “Silence” from Electronic Music Philosophy, Vol. 27: Silence (2020 Bandcamp). From the twenty-seventh collection of tracks from the collective known as Electronic Music Philosophy (Tustin, California) came this disc devoted to works composed using silence as a principal technique. Plus clips from the following as examples: Amelie Lens, “Resonance” from Contradiction (2017 Second State); Nora En Pure, “Norma Jean” from Come With Me (2013 Enormous Tunes). Opening and closing sequences voiced by Anne Benkovitz. Additional opening, closing, and other incidental music by Thom Holmes.

Der VW Corrado – Sportwagen aus Kostengründen (1988-1995) Eigentlich sollte der Corrado Nachfolger des Scirocco II werden. Doch irgendwie liefen in Wolfsburg bei der Entwicklung die Kosten aus dem Ruder und ein Corrado wurde plötzlich fast doppelt so teuer wie ein Scirocco. VW reagierte und positionierte das neue Modell eine gute Klasse höher. Das Sportcoupé wurde plötzlich auf dem Papier und damit in den Prospekten ein Sportwagen – vor allem um den hohen Verkaufspreis zu rechtfertigen. Und der Scirocco blieb in Produktion und wurde ein paar Jahre parallel zum Corrado angeboten. Die Kostenexplosion bei der Entwicklung sind seit jeher ein Rätsel, weil der Corrado weitgehend auf Großserientechnik setzte: Bodengruppe vom Golf II, eine Motorenpalette, die ebenfalls in anderen Autos der Volkswagengruppe zu finden war und das etwas triste Interieur aus dem VW Passat. Das einzige wirklich Neue war das unter der Ägide von Designchef Herbert Schäfer gezeichnete Blechkleid: eine für die damalige Zeit mutige, aggressive Keilform. Passenderweise wurde der Corrado auch bei Karmann in Osnabrück und nicht in Wolfsburg gefertigt. Allerdings gab es potente Motoren, zum Debut 1988 einen 1,8-Liter-Vierzylinder, der es mit einem G-Lader auf stattliche 160 PS brachte und ab 1991 einen VR 6 mit bis zu 190 PS - mit 235 km/h Spitze der bis dato schnellste VW aller Zeiten. Mit diesen Aggregaten erzielt der leichte Corrado sportwagenmäßige Fahrleistungen, allerdings zeigt sich das recht brave Fahrwerk dieser Leistung nicht immer voll gewachsen. Als junger Klassiger ist der Corrado ein perfektes Einstiegsauto in das Oldtimer-Hobby. Dank teilverzinkter Karosserie relativ rostresistent, günstige Ersatzteile aus der Großserie, ein noch überschaubarer Kaufpreis bei gleichzeitigem Wertseigerungspotential und vor allem: jede Menge Fahrspaß. Das finden auch Ron und Frederic. Oli ist diesmal etwas verhalten, kann dem Corrado nicht so richtig viel abgewinnen, denn als Opel-Fan sympathisiert er mit dem Calibra. Was das alles mit Winzern, Wirbelwinden und Verdichtung zu tun hat – das erfahrt ihr in diesem Podcast.

Elite climber Mary Eden (aka Tradprincess) shares her struggles and breakthroughs in Training, Nutrition, Tactics, and Mental Game.  - Mary Eden is perhaps most known for her crack and off-width climbing at an elite level, but as you'll hear in our chat, she doesn't consider herself an "off-width climber"… she's a climber. A climber who seeks discomfort and charges headlong into styles that challenge her. Bouldering, sport climbing, crack and off-width… she gets after all of it, and at an incredibly high level. Just a few months ago Mary accomplished a life goal when she became the first woman to send Necronomicron on gear, an insanely cool 100ft 14a horizontal roof crack in the White Rim. Mary is humble, honest, and an incredible example of what can be accomplished with focused hard work, an open mind, and a seemingly bottomless well of stoke. I think you'll find this conversation very relatable, and very motivating.  - Petzl is the official gear sponsor of The Struggle.

«Quando vedete una nuvola salire da ponente, subito dite: “Arriva la pioggia”, e così accade. E quando soffia lo scirocco, dite: “Farà caldo”, e così accade. Ipocriti! Sapete valutare l'aspetto della terra e del cielo; come mai questo tempo non sapete valutarlo? E perché non giudicate voi stessi ciò che è giusto? Quando vai con il tuo avversario davanti al magistrato, lungo la strada cerca di trovare un accordo con lui, per evitare che ti trascini davanti al giudice e il giudice ti consegni all'esattore dei debiti e costui ti getti in prigione. Io ti dico: non uscirai di là finché non avrai pagato fino all'ultimo spicciolo».

Il racconto "Audace" è quello di un viaggio, che dalle colline del Carso ha portato 6.492 bottiglie di Prosecco Doc Trieste a 20 metri di profondità nel Golfo della città, per affinarsi e maturare.Underwater Wine rappresenta un sogno territoriale: affinare il Prosecco Doc Trieste nel suo Golfo, utilizzando l'esperienza di un grande gruppo come Serena Wines 1881 e l'estro di una azienda del Carso come Parovel vigneti oliveti 1898.Il Prosecco Doc Trieste, che alla profondità di 20 m, si è affinato con parametri straordinariamente peculiari: la temperatura, la salinità, la concentrazione di ossigeno disciolto, la presenza di fosfati, silicati, nitriti, nitrati e clorofilla. Tutti questi parametri naturali mutano con le stagioni e con il passaggio dei venti garantendo ad Audace Prosecco Doc Trieste spumante l'unicità gustativa e caratteriale. La Bora e lo Scirocco generano importanti oscillazioni sub-inerziali che contribuiscono al continuo movimento delle bottiglie e questo continuo cullare ha portato ad un'evoluzione singolare e straordinaria.

Las marcas puramente generalistas han ofrecido sino siempre, casi siempre, en sus gamas, un modelo deportivo. Y si no siempre, casi siempre, han fracasado. Los deportivos de las marcas generalistas sistemáticamente han fracasado… aunque hay explicaciones y hay excepciones… ¿Es lo mismo coupé que deportivo? Sí y no. De un coche con carrocería coupé se espera una cierta deportividad, por prestaciones y comportamiento. Pero hay coches muy deportivos con carrocerías nada deportivas, como son todos los Gti y algunos ejemplos paradigmáticos, como puede ser el Mitsubishi Evo, un coche muy deportivo con carrocería de taxi… Los coches deportivos solo mantienen su valor y su caché si son de marcas Premium… o semi-Premium y que siempre han cuidado mucho esta categoría. El caso Toyota. Si atendemos a su variada gama, que empieza muy abajo Toyota es una marca generalista. Pero es una marca que, en muchos mercados, entre ellos es español, se percibe como algo más que generalista, quizás, entre otras cosas, a su contrastada calidad. Y también, quizás, porque siempre han cuidado este segmento de los coches deportivos. Toyota siempre ha ofrecido deportivos de mucho nivel. No podemos olvidar al excelente Supra ni al Celica ni al MR2 de motor central. Y en la actualidad sigue cuidando este segmento. Volkswagen: La sombra del Golf es alargada. VW es otra de esas marcas que podíamos definir como semi-Premium y que siempre ha cuidado el segmento de los deportivos, con coches como el Corrado y las sucesivas generaciones de Scirocco… pero siempre a la sombra del Golf. Los refinados Honda. No me quiero olvidar de Honda, otra marca muy especial y que siempre ha tenido deportivos en su gama, algunos muy modestos, como el S600 que pude conducir en un rallye de regularidad, el precioso S2000, el polivalente Prelude o su majestad el NSX. Hyundai Coupé. En este caso no hay duda: Hyundai es una marca generalista. Y en sus comienzos, una marca con imagen casi de Low Cost, como era el caso de todas las coreanas. Pero es que Hyundai se lo curró de verdad. Fui a la presentación de la primera generación (1996-1999) y probé la versión de 1.8 litros y 130 CV. Muchos compañeros míos decían que el coche era muy feo, algunos que corría poco y ninguno que no fuese muy bien de bastidor… Los fracasados. He elegido unos pocos, aunque hay más. Los he elegido por que son coches todos ellos que probé en su momento y algunos de ellos, también después, ya como clásicos. Vamos por orden alfabético. Citroën SM (1970-1975) ¿Un fracaso el SM? Ya sabéis que es un coche que me encanta, pero sí, fue un fracaso. El Citroën SM debutó casi al mismo tiempo que la crisis del petróleo. Y por mucho motor Maserati que llevase un deportivo tan caro, tracción delantera y bastante delicado… no interesaba demasiado. ¿Se adelantó a su tiempo? Puede ser. Ford Cougar (1998-2002) También estuve en la presentación de este coche en Alemania. Y acerté en su momento cuando dije que este coche no iba a triunfar. ¿Era un mal coche? Pues no, pero no era deportivo para nada y su estética, en mi opinión, era un poco anodina. Fiat Coupé (1993-2000) Honestamente, no so muy fan de Chris Bangle, diseñador de este coche… que desde luego es original y llamativo, pero no me parece un coche de verdad bonito. Aunque voy a ser honesto: Al contrario de muchos de los coches de esta lista, que han envejecido mal, creo que a este coupé la pasa lo contrario. Opel Calibra (1989-1997) Este coche no era ni más ni menos que un Vectra con carrocería coupé. Pero con la aparición del V6, del Turbo, de 4x4 y su participación en el DTM, se le dio bastante lustre. Peugeot 406 Coupé (1995-2005) Este coche no solo fue diseñado por Pininfarina, sino incluso fabricado cerca de Turín. Y es que es un coche bonito que tuvo éxito, del que se vendieron más de 100.000 ejemplares. Suponía el retorno de la marca a este segmento y se ofrecían versiones con motor 2.0 litros de 136 CV y un V6 de 3.0 litros y 207. Siempre fue un coche cerca del concepto GT, coche bonito pero práctico y cómodo, y lejos del concepto deportivo. Renault Fuego (1980-1982) Poner una carrocería coupé y un motor más potente a un R18 no lo convierte en deportivo. Y luego ya, si para colmo, le pones un motor turbodiésel… pues ¿Qué queréis que os diga? El Fuego fue un buen coche, especialmente valorado en Argentina, donde se le vio mucho en competición. Conclusión. Los usuarios amantes de los deportivos valoran mucho la marca. Pero esto no es solo una cuestión de “marquismo”, que también, sino de diversión al volante. El mayor problema de los deportivos generalistas es que no eran deportivos, sino coches con carrocerías más bonitas destinadas a personas que no necesitaban una berlina.

Mercoledì e giovedì il clou: l'innalzamento di un anticiclone africano all'altezza del Mediterraneo centrale, comporta la risalita di correnti calde di Scirocco, che portano con sé un buon quantitativo di sabbia sahariana. Le zone più colpite dal fenomeno saranno quelle alpine centro-occidentali, Sicilia, Sardegna e le regioni tirreniche, ma il fenomeno sarà evidente anche in Veneto.

Nuova puntata della Hit Chart Top 20 con Matolas & Claudia con un super parterre di ospiti: Marco Guazzone, Mani, Scirocco, Pwas e iosonocorallo.E l'immancabile appuntamento con Happy 20th Anniversary.

 Dès l'Antiquité, les marins créent la rose des vents pour déterminer leur route selon la direction du vent.     La rose des vents indique les 4 points cardinaux et les 4 points intermédiaires matérialisés par 8 vents. Ce sont les Phéniciens qui ont été les premiers à faire usage de la rose. Plus tard, elle a été utilisée dans la Grèce antique et améliorée par les marins italiens. Ainsi sur beaucoup de portulans de l'époque apparaîtra une rose des vents avec les initiales italiennes TGLSOLPM. T pour Tramontane c'est-à-dire le Nord, G pour Grecale ou le Nord-Est, L pour Levante ou l'Est, S pour Scirocco donc le Sud-Est, O pour Ostro soit le Sud, L pour Libeccio ou le Sud-Ouest, P pour Ponente ou encore l'Ouest et M pour Maestro c'est-à-dire le Nord-Ouest.  Les portulans ce sont les cartes de navigation qui sont utilisées du XIIIe au XVIIIe siècle. Ils ressemblent à une toile d'araignée dont les fils indiquent les lignes de vents qui quadrillent les surfaces maritimes entrecoupées des traits de cotes. Certains sont très simples car ils servent usuellement à la navigation. D'autres sont de véritables objets d'art, décorés avec raffinement. A l'époque, ils sont même considérés comme des secrets d'Etat, notamment par les royaumes du Portugalet de l'Espagne à partir du traité de Tordessilas en 1494. Aujourd'hui ils sont précieusement conservés à la Bibliothèque nationale de France par exemple ou par les collectionneurs passionnés.     La rose des vents est dessinée sur ces portulans et permet de déterminer le cap à suivre. Ce symbole est particulièrement cher au joaillier Giampiero Bodino qui le décline, comme dans les plus beaux portulans, avec une richesse de couleur et une variété de style très latine.  En 2014 il présente à la Biennale, un flamboyant motif de rose des vents en diamant sur or blanc avec un cœur et des rayons d'émeraudes irradiés de spinelles noirs, qui scandent aux4 points cardinaux le collier chocker deperles d'améthystes.  En 2015, sa collection Rosa Dei Venti explosent de saphirs bleus et pourpres, d'irisations vertes et bleues et de scintillements jaune et rouge, exactement comme les flamboiements méditerranéens quand leur ciel embrasse la mer.   Et en 2017, Giampiero Bodino créera un bracelet précieux Rosa dei Venti où le cabochon d'émeraude de taille remarquable dissimulera le garde temps comme un secret.  Alors que pour le Noël 2017 Rosa Dei Venti devient une collection capsule monochrome où la pureté du diamant souligne la rigueur des 4 pointes de la rose des vents juste éclairée par un cabochon de rubellite.        Entre le XVe et le XVIe siècle les marins espagnols et portugais explorent les mers au nom que leurs souverains Castillans et Portugais qui pensent à se partager le monde. Vasco de Gama (1469-1524) découvre les Indes. Fernand de Magellan (1480-1521) donne son nom au détroit qui clôt le Moyen-Orient et ouvre le monde contemporain. Christophe Collomb (1451-1506) découvre les Amériques en croyant trouver les Indes. Hernàn Cortes (1485-1547) annexe l'empire aztèque. Et le florentin, Amerigo Vespucci (1454-1512), explorant les mers au service de la Castille, se rend compte que Christophe Collomb a découvert l'Amérique et c'est lui qui lui lègue son nom.     Ce sont ces histoires qui ont inspiré la designer en joaillerie Nathalie Castro pour imaginer en 2008 un modèle unique et déposé où la rose des vents en diamants et calcédoine bleues rythme un magnifique sautoir en or blanc, céramique blanche et bleue en hommage aux Azulejos et en filigranes en référence aux savoir faire joaillier méditerranéen.        La cartographie des mers est essentielle et en mutation en ce temps des grandes découvertes.   La première Rose des vents est documentée sur l'Atlas catalan d'Abraham Cresques en 1375 et dès lors sa représentation évolue.  Au XIVe siècle la direction du nord apparait sous la forme d'une fleur de Lys sur les portulants portugais. Sur d'autres cartes, l'Est est symbolisé par une croix de Malte, indiquant Bethléem, c'est-à-dire l'endroit où le Christ est né. Le très célèbre Portulan Kunstmann I, créé par le navigateur portugais Pedro Reinel en 1504 décrit l'ouest de la mer Méditerranée, l'océan Atlantique, et les territoires limitrophes, dont le Nouveau Monde. C'est la première carte connue avec une échelle de latitude. La grande rose des vents dessinée au milieu de l'océan Atlantique est également la première à être orientée vers le Nord.     Si on étend ce symbole d'orientation vers une dimension plus mystique, on peut penser que porter une rose des vents donne la chance de naviguer à flots ou de trouver le bon port.      C'est surement pour cette raison qu'en 2015 la première collection d'Elie Top baptisée « Mécaniques Célestes » mêlait tous les instruments d'études des marins et les transformaient en une cohérence de symboles. Les étoiles, les astrolabes, les globes terrestres et les roses des vents…étaient rassemblés en un bijou mystérieux à découvrir. Rien qu'en une manchette, un pendentif ou même une bague, un monde complet se découvrait. Tout d'abord une sphère, d'argent patiné comme un monde inconnu. En la soulevant on découvre tout un système planétaire en mouvement, des anneaux, des astres, avec au cœur une autre terre, de pierre, d'or et de diamants. Une architecture cosmogonique complexe comme une extravagance mathématique. Un astroglobe dont auraient rêvé les explorateurs des mers et qui aujourd'hui porté sur soi guide un voyage intérieur de sa rose des vents secrète.  Poursuivant cette symbolique, en 2016, Elie Top créera au cœur de sa collection, une étoile mystérieuse, une rose des vents dont les rayons endiamantés entourent une sphère cœur d'Onyx mobile sur un axe central qui dévoile à loisir une autre étoile unique comme l'étoile du berger. Une autre façon de se rappeler son chemin intérieur.           Paris a lui aussi sa rose des vents. Elle marque le point kilométrique 0 des routes quittant la capitale, dont on se sert comme référence pour le calcul des distances avec les autres villes de France. Il est situé devant la cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris. Son histoire n'est pas glamour : à cet endroit se dressait au Moyen Âge un poteau nommé « Échelle de Justice » au pied duquel les condamnés s'agenouillaient pour faire amende honorable ou être condamné à mort. L'échelle est remplacée en 1767 par un carcan qui fut adopté comme point zéro par lettres patentes de Louis XV du 22 avril 1769.     Et à Marseille, le port de mer emblématique, la maison Hopethediamantstore créé en 2012 par Marie Bagnoli et son frère propose une rose des vents très pure en diamant certifié et or recyclé dans un pendentif dont la simplicité met en avant la force du symbole.        La signification de la rose des vents est bien de trouver un port d'attache en toute sécurité. Ce qui pourrait être une allégorie pour puiser dans ses racines et retrouver un patrimoine historique.      Ainsi, Victoire de Castellane, Directrice Artistique de Dior Joaillerie, a construit la collection rose des vents comme une allégorie de la vie de Christian Dior et notamment en hommage à l'étoile en métal trouvée le jour de la création de la Maison et qu'il portait superstitieusement sur lui. Coté pile la rose des vents est en or rose avec un coeur de diamant, cote face les pierres représentent les 4 points cardinaux : la nacre blanche pour le nord, la turquoise pour le sud, l'opale rose pour l'est et le lapis-lazuli pour l'ouest.  D'année en année, la rose des vents s'impose aujourd'hui comme une des collections emblématiques de Dior, avec émail, diamants, en perlé, réinterprété par Victoire de Castellane à chaque saison et représentée par Anne Ewers, Cara Delevingne et Emilia Clarke.     Pour aller jusqu'au bout de la symbolique, LVMH a d'ailleurs imaginé le parfum rose des vents pour lequel le maître-parfumeur Jacques Cavallier Belletrud a imaginé un sillage des roses de Grasse.     La rose des vents, boussole des marins, devient ainsi grâce aux joailliers le bijou du voyage intérieur, de la recherche de soi, de l'esprit explorateur et l'élan pour atteindre ses objectifs.     Alors, merci, de ce précieux talisman et Bon vent !     Ainsi se termine cette histoire de la rose des vents.     Je suis Anne Desmarest de Jotemps et je donne une voix aux bijoux chaque dimanche.

“Scirocco”, nuovo romanzo a fumetti di Giulio Macaione (Basilicò, 2016; Stella di mare, 2018) e edito da Bao Publishing, è una medicina lenitiva per il vostro cuore. Sospeso, anzi, galleggiante tra una umida Venezia e una sperduta Sicilia, “Scirocco” narra la storia di Mia, adolescente aspirante ballerina, di suo padre Gianni che sta cercando di riprendere in mano la sua vita e della eclettica nonna Elsa: anima artista, vedova di un marito che ha amato per la sua intera vita e che ora si prepara a riaffrontare il fantasma di un suo vecchio male. Un tumore, che potrebbe separarla dalla sua famiglia, e dalla sé stessa che lei vuole sia ricordata. Una storia generazionale, di vite che si intrecciano tra campagne e acqua alta, tra quel mare che da San Mauro Castelverde puoi solo vedere e a Venezia non puoi veramente toccare, “Scirocco” affronta il tema dell'amore, del futuro e del lutto senza mai appesantirsi.In questa puntata, insieme a Costanza, Giulio Macaione ci parlerà di cosa lo ha ispirato e di quanto in realtà forse il fumetto orientale ha davvero lasciato un segno sulla nuova generazione di fumettisti.Infine, ma non meno importante, di come scrivere e leggere siano punti cardini per addomesticare e accettare un dolore incancellabile.

Podcast guest 309 is Scirocco Slaton. Scirocco had a near death experience where she was tested. Also during her NDE experience she went to a white room. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jeffrey-s-reynolds/support

In the latest episode of Bangers & Classics, James decides not to buy a Moke but gets yet more free stuff, David runs out of paint after failing to spell 'Transylvania' correctly, a stunning new business idea is revealed, the Scirocco mark 2 breezes into the Banger or Classic courtroom, the challenge yields some surprising results, the lads give sage (and onion) advice on how to deal with car (and wall) snobs, and a new road test criterion (with added Sumo wrestler) is born.

The 16:9 PODCAST IS SPONSORED BY SCREENFEED – DIGITAL SIGNAGE CONTENT While the people who wake up in the morning thinking about digital signage fully understand and appreciate the value and importance of great, effective creative, there are lots of end-users who don't quite get that part of it - and still think of display projects as AV technology exercises. It's particularly true with large format display jobs - which are being green-lighted all the time based on lots of discussion around pixel pitch, scale and cost, but almost none about what will be on the display. Alberto Scirocco is the Founder and Creative Director of the motion and design studio leftchannel, which is technically based in Ohio, but is largely virtual. His office, for example, is on the Italian Riviera. Poor fella. I had a chat with Scirocco about the Wild West nature of the business, when it comes to design. We had a great conversation about  what makes displays interesting and engaging, and how the good ones have a function. Subscribe to this podcast: iTunes * Google Play * RSS TRANSCRIPT Alberto, thanks for joining me. You're off in Italy! Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, that's right. I am in Italy right now.  Can you tell me the background about leftchannel?  Alberto Scirocco: We started leftchannel about 20 years ago and at the beginning, we just started as a motion design studio, so a more traditional format at the time. Did a lot of advertising, music videos, film titles, and a lot of our gigs were really artistic execution, and then, in the course of time, through the years, we've become more and more involved in actually crafting some of the messages that we're animating and putting in motion, and it's been an interesting road, and of course, markets change in a lot of different ways and technologies have changed in lots of different ways, and one of the things that have been interesting for us has been adapting to all the new stuff and we have an experimental nature. I come from industrial design and fine art, and so I'm always gonna have this foot in both camps of being engineer minded, but also have a real passion for really expressive artistic work, and in the last several years, we have been being more and more focused on really trying to apply strategy to design and making sure that we were doing stuff that's useful and not just pretty. This would be more motion, graphic design than video editing?  Alberto Scirocco: Correct. We end up having to do a lot of production, but generally, our focus is design, and so when we do production it is because it's part of a piece that we'll have design and animation within it.  I'm guessing if you've been at this for 20 years, that the demand to do things on screens has grown quite a bit because 20 years ago, digital signage was one of those things where you had to explain what it was. Now, there are so many screens out there and there are so many large format displays where it moves away from just being messaging to experientially engaging stuff where you really have to think about the creative.  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, exactly. I think that's part of what motivated this conversation is exactly the fact that, as you mentioned, signage used to have a very practical, very pragmatic mindset, you think about billboards and advertising and there's a very clear function of what those things are for. For a while now, screens have appeared in a lot of different places and it's bringing a lot more functions to the table, a lot more opportunities of what screens can do and some of them are really quite powerful, and so yeah, the demand has grown quite a bit. The nature of the request has grown quite a bit, because like you said, I think when I first started there were jumbotrons, and you were doing pixel animation, stuff that looked like 80s video games on this gigantic screen. So they were very delineated into what they were trying to do.  But now it's wide open. You have art installations, you have places that completely define placemaking, completely defined by the screen and the experiences inside. So, it's a pretty exciting time. I have to say for this type of work.  You're doing in Italy. leftchannel, I believe is based in Ohio, but you're virtual and you work around the globe, right?  Alberto Scirocco: That's exactly right. We have people from all over and also when we were very much in Ohio, we still didn't work in our geographical area. So we've always done national, international work just because the nature of the work is unique, and so it's attracting people from all over.  In the context of digital signage and large format display, what are some of your projects that people listening might be familiar with? Alberto Scirocco: I think there were a couple of Times Square videos that are likely to have seen something we did for Disney and Exotica which were very visible and that stuff folds down that category of the more traditional type of work that you would think, but it's very noticeable, it's really big and flashy and you're really competing for eyes, but it was really fun, project because of the fact of combining animation, obviously they're very illustrative look and then very graphic components and having to support Exotica and the product and advertising. So we love things like that, briefs like this, where there's lots of complicated stuff that need to come together. That's stuff that we get really excited about.  Have you done much in the way of permanent installations, like the creative for permanent ones?  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, there's actually a couple of large corporate pieces we have done for companies, which is also a very exciting and interesting field for us. Once again, we tend to get involved in a lot of different things, but there was a common thread and the common thread is trying to build something that does something. I know that it doesn't seem like much, but it was actually the real thought behind it. We really love work that has a functional quality and sometimes even artistic pieces have a very functional quality, right? I refer frequently to the Samsung screen in Korea, which I'm sure you're familiar with, and it's interesting because some of that work obviously feels very artistic, but it has a great effect on that area. It defines that place completely.  So there is a function to it and the function is not always directly advertising, which is actually one of the issues that I have sometimes in industry is how to directly focus on advertising. A lot of this signage is missing some of your opportunity, but yeah, we've done some large installations on corporate buildings. And like I said, that's also a very interesting field sometimes because you're trying to create something that is doing something for the audience, and so it's entertaining and interesting, it defines space, it does something for people passing by. It's still telling a story of a company and there's lots of different ways that you can do that. Sometimes it's a very explicit story, but sometimes it's just a complete composition of impressions as well.  If I look on your portfolio page on the experiential side, I see did the Sheraton Dallas and Verizon stores and things like that.  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah. So it's a very broad spectrum. The Sheraton was a very fun project. We're still engaged in the project, we visit to refresh their content from time to time. Very interesting placement of these two structures that are wrapped with screens because being on the doorway, they have this almost like arch triumph feel, right, where they are greeting people on the way in but they're also are still addressing all the people on the inside, from the bar and restaurant inside the lobby. And so they have a dual function, so it's really interesting to create work that has that impactful effect on people that come in. But it also has an ambient peaceful environment feeling for the people that are on the inside. So yeah, that's been an extremely fun project. We're actually rolling out a couple of new modules for that in the next couple of months.  Your managing director, Candy, I was trading emails with her and she was saying how experiential is in something of a Wild West phase. What do you guys mean by that?  Alberto Scirocco: If you think about advertising, in its infancy, there was a lot of defining what advertising could do and then if you fast forward all the way to today, there is a science to advertising. There's a lot of things that are just so clearly defined to the point that, unfortunately, there are also expectations on both ends, right? You just know how certain things are gonna look and sound, but it's because there's clarity of how people react to things and what works. And in truth, there's always creative space in every place. But when something gets very refined and it's not in infancy anymore after a while, there's just a little bit less space. But digital signage is really in a sense in its infancy, there are still firsts that are coming out. And people are going at it in a lot of different ways. Sometimes they're going at it a little backward. So there's a lot of people that, for example, will look at a space and they'll say, we need a screen there, and that seems to make sense, because they're looking at in terms of hardware, “let's put an opportunity there” but obviously, the screen is just an opportunity. It's just an empty potential, and when people walk by a screen, they don't see a screen, they just see what's on the screen, and so it's odd how a lot of these installations are basically being done that way, without a real strategy of the necessary hat are we trying to do with this space, what do we want people to see? And then sourcing the technology that supports it.  I know there are really a lot of situations where people are saying we're going to put something there and somebody will figure out what goes on.  Yeah I've heard stories. I remember a friend of mine, who's a creative director for a digital shop in the Toronto area saying he got a call one day from an AV integrator who had put up a big LCD video wall somewhere, and the guy was asking, “Do you have any content we could put on this thing because we're lighting it up today?” Michael, my friend, was on the other end of the phone, just looking at the phone call going, “What the hell?”  Alberto Scirocco: That actually happens a lot. You mentioned that and I know it seems crazy and I think to most people listening to this, it might seem like a very odd thing, but it actually happens so much that people contact us and ask us for blank content to have for those situations, just generic stuff to fill screens. So it's a little bit crazy, right? If you imagine that movie theaters did that, they just put up screens and, speaking of that, I tend to make this kind of comment, when's the last time you told somebody to go down to the theater to have a great new projector?  People are very unaware of the technology and technology is transparent to the user. At the same time, I get it because I understand how people, especially coming for real estate, feel like if we had something here, they didn't want to lose that potential, and because, as I said, this is a little bit far west, because it is a little bit lost. Right now you can go to a number of people to have a conversation about creating an experience. You could be talking to an architect and that kind of makes sense. You could be talking to a company like us, a video company, you can be talking to a hardware manufacturer, you can talk to an integrator. So there are lots of different people you could be interfacing with and obviously, they're all coming from a different position. You go to Best Buy to buy a TV, you walk out with a TV. There is an understanding that there's content out there you're going to see. Similarly, with subscriptions, the content is a given, and so with the same mindset, you go out, you buy a gigantic screen, maybe it's just an ultra-widescreen, and all of a sudden there's really nothing for that thing out there. That has to be made by somebody, and for us, sometimes that's amusing and entertaining because somebody hands you a very weird form, and then we suddenly have to figure out, who's here, what is the story, what kind of mindset there and how long ago as well, like we have to visit in reverse trying to figure out what we can make with space, and t, that can be fun for designers, but as you can imagine there was an opportunity in kind of planning things if possible. You mentioned being somebody who has an affinity for things that have a function to them, do big experiential/engaging displays need to have a point, or is it enough to be wow factor/eye candy?  Alberto Scirocco: I don't know that I can make such a blank statement. In my opinion, there's always a point, that is the point. I'm in Italy right now, which is where I'm from. There's a lot of art, a lot of public art. There's also a lot of decorated places. So most buildings are decorated, most gates are decorated. You just grew up with this idea that wherever you lay your eyes, there's going to be something pretty. Somebody is taking the time to decorate it, and but there's also a lot of functional spaces out there, especially modern spaces that tend to be very functional. There's just a certain sense of what a strip mall looks like, and it's a very undecorated place, right? There are a lot of very pragmatic places. Certainly, something that is just pretty and the spectacle can really do quite a bit for space and that's a function, making something beautiful is definitely a function. So when I say function, I don't mean that automatically it is creating schedules or whatever, but the point that I make is that, if you are trying to make a place interesting, then maybe advertising is not the right thing to do with that space. And for example, there's actually an airport that I won't mention. They went through a very large renovation and part of the renovation, they put these two gigantic screens and all to do is show advertising and it's almost like an intentionally designed strategy to make people ignore the two biggest screens on earth because when you think about it, I don't know, there's a bigger softball than people in the airport. People are just bored and pretty much everything you're doing, the airport is waiting. So you're waiting in line, then you go wait in another line, and if you have nobody in line, you are just simply waiting, and so it'd be pretty easy to entertain those people, but that's the one thing that we have gotten really good at doing is not looking at advertising, and a hundred percent of retiring programming is really not a good use of that space, and so then it's a whole lot of people that are wasting a lot of opportunities.  Is there a monetization model for this sort of thing where it is experiential as visually interesting, but you're doing something that's going to pay for this what is still pretty expensive tech?  Alberto Scirocco: I think there are lots of them, I think there are lots of different ones. If you have a mall and more people are coming, that has value, and so there's a monetization for the children area in the mall clearly iins the fact that you're creating traffic, you're attracting people who can spend time. So there's really a lot of monetization strategies and for a lot of different situations, and that's what I mean by function. Those are those situations where you can have that conversation and say, what is it that we want in this case? I think sometimes people fall into that trap of directly monetizing something and then say we're just going to sell space. But that's not automatically something that is going to work. So sometimes you have to be a little bit more strategic about really what do we want out of this space and how is that going to be functional for us? And sometimes, traffic, the quality of the experience of the viewer. You think about theme parks and theme parks are money machines in a lot of different forms, right? People pay at the door to get in and everything in there is expensive, and then they're just gigantic shops but people are enjoying themselves. And so that's the point. You're trading something for something you've giving the audience, and you're charging them for it, and I think everybody's very comfortable with that. We all don't mind paying for it. That's a good win-win, consumers are comfortable with it.  So I think if you make a space worth people's times and people having a good experience then they're okay rewarding you, by spending their money on your experience as the product you offer. So I think that's really what it comes down to. You're trying to make sure that it's a dialogue between two groups, and so you want to give the audience something that fits with their story. So where they are, where they're trying to do in this specific place, that makes sense for where they are and people are rewarding you. So when you engage with a new customer or maybe re-engage with an existing one, what's the process? How do you sit down and set the intention for the project?  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, that's a varied answer because the customers are coming from lots of different places, and so sometimes you have people that come to the table with nothing. They just know that for example, I have a property and they want to embellish it or they want to create something that will give a sense of value or sometime they'll have a property and the city is asking them to invest in art and that's it, and they have to invest some percentage. So there are lots of different agendas, but you also have marketing teams and insights who have a very clear sense of what they're trying to do. And it varies quite a bit, so it depends on really what people bring to the table. So when people have no real idea what they're trying to do, we try to take a really broad approach and explore the opprtunity, understand the space, understand the audience of the center, who could be there, who is there, what will be good for them? It's essentially a design thinking exercise, as you can imagine, it's just really clearly understanding who we are on our end and meaning us as the client, and so understanding, what they offer, what they can do that is positive and obviously, what they have to gain and then the same, do the same thing for the audience and then try to draw vectors, trying to understand really what's a place where both groups can overlap in a natural way and it translates into the design. When you're producing content for a client, how does the conversation go when you're talking about the sustainability, the shelf life of the piece? Because I've seen lots of work that looks fantastic, but it's there too long. It becomes stale dated.  Alberto Scirocco: That's right, and that also changes greatly because it changes, based on how frequently people go to a place. Going back to the example of theme parks, sometimes some of those experiences stay for a really long time, because you're not just going there every day, and so you might experience it twice in the arch of seven-eight years, and so it doesn't quite get old. But you put something in front of a mass transit terminal, like a subway and the same people now are going over twice a day or two, four times a day, every day, and now it's quite different, and again that's what really comes down to what we're talking about. So really understand the situation, understand the use. And then of course there's always the component of finance. What makes sense financially?  So if the frequency is important, then you have to be creative about creating content that has an ability to change frequently, and as you said, that really is an application of the space or the use. They're all different. But that's something that definitely figures. We definitely try to be really focused on that as well. How frequently refreshes, how refreshes are going to come together and, is there going to be a need for drastically changing the content, because maybe it is like an array of different pieces, or is there a story that gets to be evolved? We have some corporate clients where we're busily redoing or modifying the piece every couple of years and which is a fairly long period of time, but it is an evolution of the same story. So it still satisfies the original brief has just new content, new footage, new design/  One of the workarounds for the cost of content and the challenge of keeping it refreshed is doing visualized data. There are several pieces out there in the world at airports, in public buildings, and so on. I'm a fan of the set-and-forget types that it's very efficient and everything else, but I'm starting to wonder more and more about its effectiveness because I just wrote about one at the Sydney Australia Convention Center yesterday, it's a 96-meter long display, and it'almost looks like a blue screen of death, but it's not obviously. Code running across the screen. It looks visually interesting. But I wonder sometimes when people are looking at this, do they know what they're looking at? And does it matter whether they know what they're looking at? Alberto Scirocco: But, it's funny to some degree it doesn't. Some of those pieces, they're really much more akin to art and video generative, something that is generative work that is generated by data. In the end, it's really more for our satisfaction to know that it's generated by data, but it's a very plastic piece. It looks like what it looks like and if it's beautiful and it's interesting to see, then it's something you can watch for a period of time, it's like watching a waterfall. You can pretty much watch it endlessly because it's just naturally interesting, and so if you're able to recreate that natural sense of something that has just enough evolution, enough variety, but some qualities that are attractive, so that piece can stand forever, and then when it was generated by data or not, but it's irrelevant, and it's very transparent tp most users, it becomes really cool for designers.  People get really excited sometimes, but it does but is they are really visible. I don't know if you're an audiophile, but I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to this stuff and I love audio stuff, and sometimes you're looking at an amplifier and that its distortion is so low and but in the end, you're not really hearing that. You just know it, so it becomes an intellectual appreciation that your body really just ignores. Is it a little bit like buying a car in the old days, everybody would open the hood and look at the engine and all that, and now I suspect 99% of people never even flip the lid open ‘cause they don't know what they're looking at and who cares?  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, exactly. It just knowledge. It's nice to know about the product. It's nice to know what's happening behind it, but it doesn't necessarily affect your experience of it, but it's interesting.  It's interesting work and it's cool that work is out there. It's cool that people have found a way to in some way, intellectually you can compare the fact that something moves very naturally, but is still generated by data and so you can say the way that the flow of data kinda ends up being similar to a form of chaos controlled chaos, which is similar to nature. This stuff is all really interesting in theory. In the end, if the piece is beautiful, then it's beautiful to look at, and then at the same time, as you said, it could also be puzzling but then, a lot of abstract work is, so I think there's a lot of good in that. And as it's right application, like you mentioned, the airport is a good place for a piece of art, especially a piece of art that is constantly evolving. You have the perfect audience, in that case, to sit down and contemplate something that is just transforming, I think that's really a good application. You mentioned the Samsung board in Seoul's Gangnam area. There's been a lot of stuff on LinkedIn and I guess more broadly on social media about these anamorphic displays. Are you seeing a lot of demand for that from inbound customers?  Alberto Scirocco: Yeah, we are. There's definitely conversations that come about it and all these things, it's always funny. We were very experimental at the beginning of our careers as a motion design studio. I was very interested in really doing things just to see what you could do with the media, and it wasn't like a desire to be different. It was just like curiosity about what the software and the medium could do, because it was new. So we did a video of photo parallax, which is a very trite technique today, but, in 2004, it wasn't, it was very new and we put it out there and it was a video for a DJ and it was the first video of MTV put on their online presence, and for a couple of years, it was a daily email of somebody asking us to repeat that and then years later, we did something else which was visit combining cell animation with 2d work, with digital work and trying to make, so another thing that also became very popular eventually, and then for a couple of years, it was everybody asking for the same thing, and so that's how it works.  Somebody puts a waterfall in the lobby, everybody wants a waterfall in the lobby, and their first waterfall is super cool, it's a really cool idea and it's great. The 40th that's out there, It's still cool, but it's not necessary. What basically ends up happening is that you, as an artist, find yourself getting constantly typecast, and when you're concentrating to break that typecast because what you are trying to say to people is, “I can do a lot of different things, and that was an idea, and I have more ideas”, but it's easy to shop for a thing that you see then for ones you don't see, and so I think that's what happens.   That screen you mentioned, it's very successful, it's very smart. It's also very simple, and it's really good, you know what I mean? It's just a beautiful, fun thing and I love to see it and that's what you want it to be. You want it to be something that you just said, I'd love to go see that in person, and so now everybody's thinking, “oh, that's it, that's the solution!”  But you'll have to break it to them thatthe visual effect really only works from a very specific angle. Alberto Scirocco: I know. Here is this massive thing that's visible for a really large surface, but it really only works for one slice of that. But when you are in that slice, it is pretty cool but it's a very good solution, and I think it's a great thing and that's what we were saying earlier about what you brought up about the wild west. It is wide open right now because when we do something that is going to be on a curved surface and everybody's going to be really stoked about that, and then there's going to be something else because there is a lot of space for exploration which, as I said, that's what's attracting us a lot, it's another opportunity to try stuff and do new things. All right, Alberto. That was a great conversation. Just one quick, last question. If people want to know more about your company, where do they find you online?  Alberto Scirocco: leftchannel.com. I know we went real deep on that one, but we have lots of work on Vimeo and work and other channels as well. But yeah, people come and check us out.  All right. I appreciate you giving me some of your time.  Alberto Scirocco: Thank you so much for having me.

Scirocco Energy's (LON:SCIR) Tom Reynolds talks to Proactive London about investing £1.2mln in Energy Acquisitions Group Ltd (EAG), a vehicle in the sustainable energy sector with plans to acquire an anaerobic digestion (AD) biogas energy project in Northern Ireland. EAG has an agreement to acquire Greenan Generation Limited, which has a 0.5 megawatt AD plant, which creates biogas, and a new joint venture is expected to pursue a series of identified acquisition opportunities in the AD sector. Reynolds says 'strategically it is a very big deal'.

Er ist unüberhörbar Österreicher, geboren in Wien, aber seit 30 Jahren kennt man ihn auch im deutschen Galopprennsport: Andreas Suborics hat als Jockey fast 1700 Rennen gewonnen, darunter auch mit Scirocco 2004 das BMW 135. Deutsche Derby, war dreimal Champion seiner Zunft, ist dabei auf vier Kontinenten in den Sattel gestiegen und hat viele Jahre in Hongkong gelebt. Seine Karriere geht einher mit so großen Pferdenamen wie A Magicman, seinen ersten Gr. I-Sieger, Tiger Hill, Shirocco, Silvano, Sabiango, Paolini und Overdose, um nur einige zu nennen. Eine ziemlich große Karriere für den Sohn eines Konditors in Wien, der mit 14 Jahren seine Lehre in der Freudenau begonnen hat. Seit fünf Jahren ist er als Trainer in Köln aktiv, hat auch dabei viele Höhen aber auch einige Tiefen erlebt. Das Jahr 2021 steht unter positiven Vorzeichen: Mit Best of Lips steht der Winterfavorit im Stall, der so voll ist wie nie. „Im Moment habe ich 60 Pferde im Training“, erzählt Andreas Suborics in unserem RaceBets-Podcast Interview, das Nika S. Daveron und Frauke Delius mit ihm in dieser Woche geführt haben, „glücklicherweise konnte ich den ehemaligen Demme-Stall, in dem ich damals bei Bruno Schütz in Köln angefangen habe, dazu mieten, eine tolle Anlage mit altem Gemäuer, das im Sommer nicht zu heiss wird und im Winter nicht zu kalt.“Sein Winterfavorit sei gut über den Winter gekommen, „er hat fast 25 Kilo drauf gepackt, an seiner Klasse besteht kein Zweifel“, so Suborics, „die Frage ist nur, ob er über die Distanz kommt, aber das werden wir im Verlauf der Saison erfahren. Auch ohne das Derby gäbe es tolle Rennen für ihn.“ Aber in seinem Stall haben wir auch in vielen anderen Boxen nachgeschaut, wie es den vierbeinigen Cracks im Suborics-Stall geht. Außerdem haben wir natürlich auch die Tipps für den drittletzten Sandbahn-Renntag der Wintersaison 2020/2021 in Dortmund. Unsere Wett-Experten David Conolly-Smith, der mit drei Siegwetten auf Hot Hannah in der internen Battle auf den Führenden Christian Jungfleisch viel an Boden gut gemacht hat, und Ronald Köhler versuchen erneut wieder jeweils drei Siegkandidaten auszugraben.

It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   Škoda starts series production of all-electric Enyaq Škoda has started series production of its all-electric Enyaq iV model based on MEB. Up to 350 units of the e-SUV will eventually be produced daily at Škoda’s main plant in Mladá Boleslav on the same lines as the Octavia and Karoq model series containing combustion engines." according to electrive, writing about the potential for 120,000 of these a year from this plant: "The Enyaq iV is the first MEB-based electric car in the Volkswagen Group build outside of VW’s Zwickau plant in Germany. The ID.3 and ID.4 are currently being assembled there, with derivatives of the Audi Q4 e-tron and the Cupra el-Born to be added later. Other MEB plants in Europe are not scheduled to begin until 2022, such as Emden as the second plant for the ID.4, and the VW commercial vehicles plant in Hanover for the production version of the ID. Buzz."   In comparison at the VW plant in Germany already making the ID.3 and ID.4 they have production capacity of 750 a day, or 5,250 a week. Over a 48 week year (allowing for one week shutdown per quarter) that's 252,000 VW brand cars from just that one factory.   https://www.electrive.com/2020/11/26/skoda-starts-series-production-of-all-electric-enyaq/     VW Speeds Up Work on Small Electric Car "Volkswagen AG is accelerating development of a compact electric car that will cost less than 30,000 euros ($35,800) as tightening emissions rules and generous subsidies bolster sales of battery-powered vehicles, according to people familiar with the matter. The VW-branded car may be introduced as early as 2022" writes Bloomberg today: "To free up funds for the industry’s biggest electric-car offensive, VW will take more steps to shrink its portfolio of combustion-engine cars after already culling models including the Beetle and the Scirocco. It will discontinue the mid-sized Passat sedan in the U.S. and sell only the station-wagon version in Europe, the people said. VW may also phase out the upscale Arteon coupe, they said."   https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2020-11-27/vw-speeds-up-work-on-small-electric-car-culls-combustion-models   How the US plans to turn all its iconic school buses electric "The US school bus is a cultural icon. With its distinctive yellow livery, this design classic has inhabited the roads of North America in various forms since 1939, and the region is unique in having a fleet of dedicated buses for transporting school students. Most other areas use ordinary public-service buses for the school runs. On average 480,000 yellow buses carry upwards of 25 million children to school on a daily basis in the US." says Electric Hybrid Vehicle Technology website, the problem is, they're dirty diesel: "poor air quality has been proven to be responsible for high rates of asthma, cancer, and heart disease; and research by scientists at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has shown that just a small increase in fine-particulate pollution, such as that from the diesel engines of school buses, results in a 15 percent increase in the death rate due to COVID-19. . President Elect Joe Biden’s Build Back Better plan for creating a more resilient, sustainable economy proposes making all American-made buses zero-emission by 2030, starting with the school bus fleet, which would convert within five years."   The buses are currently made in Alabama, California, Georgia, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, and both North & South Carolina.   There is an unusual bias in the U.S., so far in 2020 there were 40,714 school buses registered and 5,402 city buses.   A problem is the price, 350k compared to 100k for diesel. TCO is not as powerful because they do so few miles.   https://www.electrichybridvehicletechnology.com/opinion/how-the-us-plans-to-turn-all-its-iconic-school-buses-electric.html   VW's EV boss discusses the move to electrification "Thomas Ulbrich, Volkswagen Group's e-mobility boss, has spent two years overseeing VW's move to electrification. Ulbrich discussed the challenges of refitting eight of the automaker's global plants to build full-electric cars"   On retooling for the ID.3: "We converted the plant virtually during ongoing operations. In one half of the plant, we were still building full numbers of combustion engines when we started with the electric vehicles in the other half. But in the end, everything worked despite the enormous challenges that the coronavirus pandemic demands of all of us"   On the MEB platform: " Even at the development stage, we designed the platform in such a way that we have far-reaching synergies through identical parts for different vehicles and different models. This time, we made sure that the concept of the bodies was identical across all brands, so that we had sufficiently differentiated vehicles in terms of design, but which we could still build on one assembly line."   On expansion: "The two plants in China, Anting and Foshan, will start up this year. The same applies to Skoda's production in Mlada Boleslav in the Czech Republic. Dresden in Germany will follow at the beginning of 2021, Emden and Hanover, aso in Germany, in 2022. In the second half of 2022, Chattanooga will also start up in the U.S."   On scale: "Our goal is to build 1 million EVs for the Volkswagen brand alone in 2023 and to achieve global output of 1.5 million by 2025. The MEB-based vehicles of the other group brands will then be added."   On how important the ID.4 is: "It is particularly important at the start of our electric offensive that we serve the volume segments. That's the best way to achieve economies of scale and make full use of our plants. And the ID4 will be our volume driver, which, with 500,000 units, will account for a third of our global EV sales in 2025."   https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/vws-ev-boss-discusses-move-electrification+   China's SAIC Motor Launches New Electric-Vehicle Project "SAIC Motor Corp. has initiated a new project to produce high-end electric vehicles, the latest expansion move by Chinese car makers enticed by a rosy outlook for new-energy vehicles. SAIC, one of China's largest car makers by sales volume, said Thursday that it has teamed up with a Shanghai company and Alibaba Group Holding to run the project called Zhi Ji." according to MorningStar.com: "Zhi Ji will launch luxurious electric-vehicle models, SAIC said, without providing details on the timeline, pricing or sales target. Alibaba's role is more of a technology provider for the project, a company spokeswoman said. The high-end NEV market in China is set to get crowded next year, with both foreign and domestic makers expected to launch more premium models"   https://www.morningstar.com/news/dow-jones/202011272280/chinas-saic-motor-launches-new-electric-vehicle-project   Cornwall to rollout 150 new EV chargers with £2.9m funding "Cornwall Council has secured £2.9 million in funding from the European Regional Development Fund to continue its electric vehicle (EV) charging rollout." says Current News: "A further £725,000 has been committed by the council to cover the remaining cost of the 150 chargers, which will be installed in a range of locations including council car parks and offices as well as in communities where there is currently limited chargepoint availability."   https://www.current-news.co.uk/news/cornwall-to-rollout-150-new-ev-chargers-with-2-9m-funding   New Opel Corsa-e Rally is Ready to Go The Opel Corsa-e Rally is the first all-electric rally car from a carmaker. The Blitz-badged electric vehicles will next year take part in their own one-make series – the ADAC Opel e-Rally Cup. Two complete rounds of the German Rally Championship (DRM) were rehearsed during the three-day test programme – including special stages, road sections and servicing. The unique features of electro-mobility, such as times spent driving and charging, temperature management of the battery and fine-tuning the software, were tested for the first time in a rally environment. The all-electric cars also completed long runs to test the durability of the new components.     You can listen to all 937 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.   It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast.   And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing.   Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I’ll catch you tomorrow and remember…there’s no such thing as a self-charging hybrid.     PHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE (PREMIUM PARTNER) BRAD CROSBY (PREMIUM PARTNER) AVID TECHNOLOGY (PREMIUM PARTNER) PORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATI (PREMIUM PARTNER) AUDI CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) VOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM  (PREMIUM PARTNER) DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNEL (PREMIUM PARTNER) RICHARD AT RSYMONS.CO.UK – THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE SPECIALIST (PREMIUM PARTNER)   DAVID AND LISA ALLEN (PARTNER) OEM AUDIO OF NEW ZEALAND AND EVPOWER.CO.NZ (PARTNER) GARETH HAMER eMOBILITY NORWAY HTTPS://WWW.EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/  (PARTNER) BOB BOOTHBY – MILLBROOK COTTAGES AND ELOPEMENT WEDDING VENUE (PARTNER) DARIN MCLESKEY FROM DENOVO REAL ESTATE (PARTNER) JUKKA KUKONEN FROM WWW.SHIFT2ELECTRIC.COM RAJEEV NARAYAN (PARTNER)   ALAN ROBSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALAN SHEDD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEX BANAHENE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEXANDER FRANK @ https://www.youtube.com/c/alexsuniverse42 ANDERS HOVE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREA JEFFERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREW GREEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASEER KHALID (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASHLEY HILL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BÅRD FJUKSTAD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRIAN THOMPSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRUCE BOHANNAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHARLES HALL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRIS HOPKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRISTOPHER BARTH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) COLIN HENNESSY AND CAMBSEV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG COLES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG ROGERS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAMIEN DAVIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVE DEWSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID FINCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID MOORE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PARTINGTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PRESCOTT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DON MCALLISTER / SCREENCASTSONLINE.COM (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERU KYEYUNE-NYOMBI (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) FREDRIK ROVIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GENE RUBIN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GILBERTO ROSADO (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GEOFF LOWE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEDLEY WRIGHT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN GRIFFITHS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN SEAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN (WATTIE) WATKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JACK OAKLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAMES STORR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JIM MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODICERS) JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE FROM KENT EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON MANCHAK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JUAN GONZALEZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEN MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEVIN MEYERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KYLE MAHAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LARS DAHLAGER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LAURENCE D ALLEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LEE BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LUKE CULLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARCEL WARD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARK BOSSERT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARTY YOUNG  (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MATT PISCIONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIA OPPELSTRUP (PARTNER) MICHAEL PASTRONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIKE WINTER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHAN GORE-BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NEIL E ROBERTS FROM SUSSEX EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NICHOLAS MILLER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NIGEL MILES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) OHAD ASTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL RIDINGS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL STEPHENSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GLASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GORTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETER & DEE ROBERTS FROM OXON EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHIL MOUCHET (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHILIP TRAUTMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RAJ BADWAL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENE KEEMIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENÉ SCHNEIDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RICHARD LUPINSKY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB HERMANS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB FROM THE RSTHINKS EV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RUPERT MITCHELL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) SEIKI PAYNE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEPHEN PENN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEVE JOHN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) THOMAS J.

Think about the last great visual experience you've seen. Can you name the hardware components, the types of light used, or the specifications of the speakers that accompanied this experience you're thinking of? Probably not because a great experience for a consumer is not about the hardware; it's about the feeling. On this new episode of LEDTalk, host Tyler Kern sat down with two venerable experts in creating stunning visual experiences-- David Venus, Chief Marketing Officer at PixelFLEX and Alberto Scirocco, CEO of LeftChannel."Content is not the thing that runs the hardware, content is the whole experience," Scirocco said. LeftChannel is an Ohio-based motion graphics and animation studio with a focus on creating innovative, brand-centric work across platforms."But sometimes we see people who are excited to run into building a visual experience so they rush straight to the solution. They figure, 'I want to put screens in this space,' but when they do that they already created a portion of the content," he said.That's why thought has to be put into the content picture as a whole, Venus explained."Purpose really starts from the beginning," Venus said. "What are you trying to accomplish, create, and evoke in this digital experience?"

A influência de Scirocco sobre Reccoa continua crescendo, e tudo que ela queria, na esperança que isso a tire dessa situação, era que Char tomasse alguma atitude - qualquer uma. Café com Gundam é o seu cereal matinal feito de titânio de Luna, o blend perfeito da brisa da manhã e o cheiro de pólvora nos campos de batalha do Ano de Guerra. Toda semana, Darko assiste um episódio enquanto toma um chazinho e comenta suas impressões enquanto novato na franquia que revolucionou a ficção científica no Japão. Voe, Gundam!

The official "ISSIMI" t-shirts are here! https://teespring.com/stores/issimi-shopLike a magnificent grand piano that needs to be tuned, you can drive a vintage car that drives nothing like it should.How, where, and who maintains a car can influence how it drives, even more than any inherent goodness or badness from the factory. There is some variation between cars when new, but it’s minimal — the big difference comes from how they’re treated by their owners. And, perhaps more important, the competence level of the mechanic works on them. Derek postulates that one-owner cars are often some of the best, because that person paid full new price for the car and treats it as such; subsequent owners who purchased at a discount might treat it as a cheap used car. The flip-side is that some problems crop up gradually, so the owner might not notice.Both Carmudgeons have driven good and bad examples of many cars — from W124 Mercedes to Ferrari 308 GT4s. And the variation between them is huge. This is another reason why Jason doesn’t want anyone to drive his Scirocco: maybe they’ll realize it’s not perfect. Because no old car is.But of course his Scirocco is close. ;)=The Carmudgeon Show is a comedic, information-filled conversation with Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott, two car enthusiasts who are curmudgeonly beyond their years. Proving you don’t have to be old to be grumpy, they spend each episode talking about what’s wrong with various parts of the automotive universe. Despite their best efforts to keep it negative, they usually wind up laughing, happy, and extolling their love for cars. Which just makes them angrier and more bitter.ISSIMI is an enthusiast-owned, full-service specialist offering sales, consignment, collection management, service, and consulting to discerning enthusiasts and collectors.

Jason’s deeply technical understanding, made possible by a lifelong obsession with cars, allows him to fully digest what’s going on within an automobile — and then put it into simple terms for others to understand. Also, a Master’s Degree in Law trained him to be impossible to argue with. Derek Tam-Scott still tries. He’s a young automotive expert with old-man taste in cars, and a Master’s Degree in Civil Engineering — which means he knows how to be civil to Jason. Or at least he tries. With a decade and a half’s experience buying, selling, driving and brokering classic and exotic cars, he’s experienced the world’s most iconic cars. And hated most of them.

Heiße Luft aus Wolfsburg. Ron steht auf die kantige Form des Scirocco I, Frank liebt den sportlichen Flair der karierten Sitze (GTI/GLI) und die niedrige Sitzposition, aber Oli möchte erst noch von den Vorzügen des Ur-Scirocco ("Heißer Wind") überzeugt werden. Der maskulin wirkende Renner (830 kg Leichtgewicht) fuhr selbst in der 1,5 Liter-Version großvolumigeren Konkurrenten wie dem Ford Capri und Opel Manta davon. Auch seine Rostanfälligkeit und der Hang zu ausgehärteten Ventilschaftdichtungen ("nebeln") werden im Podcast besprochen. Viel Spaß mit dem cw-Wunder der 70er!

Jonathan Johansson är tillbaka med det konceptuella albumet Scirocco där han tar upp terrordåden på Drottninggatan och den i Trollhättan. Det blir också en rapport från Folk och Kultur i Eskilstuna och en intervju om nya pjäsen "Prekariatet". Ett album döpt efter "den kvävande hetta och onda ökenvind som kommer från Nordafrika och sveper upp över Europa, och färgar alpernas vita snö brun". I den experimenterar Jonathan Johansson med en ny hårdare ljudbild, återvänder till sina religiösa rötter och försöker svara på helt omöjliga frågor som var börjar och slutar djuret i människan. HÄLFTEN AV LANDETS MUSEER HAR SVÅRT ATT TA HAND OM SINA SAMLINGAR En ny rapport från organisationen Sveriges Museer visar att 50 procent av Sveriges museer anger att de har dåliga förutsättningar för att ta hand om befintliga samlingar men också för att kunna samla in föremål till framtidens samlingar. P1 Kultur är på plats på Folk och Kultur för att prata med Åsa Hallén från Värmlands museum och Maria Jansén som är överintendent på Statens historiska museer. PREKARIATET SOM TEATER Istället för fasta anställningar har en drös tillfälliga jobb erbjudits för många i samhället. För några kanske det är en dröm att kunna flyta runt och känna sig fria. Men vår gäst Felicia Ohly undrar om det inte bara är ett nytt glorifierat proletariat med otrygga och fattiga medborgare utan socialförsäkring och pension. Hon har skrivit föreställningen Prekariatet, baserad på dokumentära berättelser från dagens Malmö som har premiär på Malmö Stadsteater på lördag. 24-ÅRING BAKOM FLERA GRAMMISNOMINERINGAR Vi möter den 24-årige musikproducenten Straynane som tog en risk och satsade alla sina kort på musiken. Idag är han nominerad till årets producent och har producerat andra nominerade artister som Z.E, Einár och Dree Low. VIRUSRASISM Varje vecka väljer en medarbetare på kulturredaktionen ut ett ord som sätter fingret på samtiden. Den här veckan följer Felicia Frithiof upp förra veckans ord virus med den sortens rasism som följer med virusspridningar. NÄR VÄSTVÄRLDENS GLASHUS KRACKELERAR I veckans sista OBS essä skriver författaren och essäisten Dan Jönsson om en ambitiös dansk bok som försöker förklara hur västvärldens ekonomiska och politiska modell, som var en självklarhet efter kommunismens fall. Har börjat skaka i sina grundvalar, åtminstone enligt vissa. Programledare: Lisa Wall Producent: Saman Bakhtiari

Our guest is the Sicilian singer and multi-instrumentalist Cristina Cusimano AKA Maria Violenza! Andy talks with Cristina about: the music on Maria Violenza's excellent debut full-length album, Scirocco, speaking and singing in Italian, Sicilian, English, and French, and her incredible performances which feature Cristina building her songs live onstage with guitar, synthesizer, and drums via a looping station. Scirocco is available via Kakakids Records now at https://kakakidsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/scirocco. You can watch Maria Violenza perform live via YouTube here.

That’s the question Derek Tam-Scott asks on this week’s episode of the Carmudgeon Show. Jason has owned his 1987 VW Scirocco 16V since 1997 — and has had plenty of other Mk1 Volkswagens, including a Cabriolet — that have out-ranked, out-fun, and out-lasted the Porsches, Ferraris, Lotuses, BMWs, Miatas, and Cosworth-Mercedes in his collection. Jason drives the fastest, best, and most expensive cars in the world — but hasn’t found anything to knock the Scirocco off its pedestal. Except possibly the Cabby. The A1-chassis VW is the giggle-factory pinnacle of fun, he says, telling the story of how this VW keeps him in love with it, why he’s built nearly ten engines for it, and how buying it was a con-job accident in the first place.The Carmudgeon Show is a comedic, information-filled 25-minute conversation with Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott, two car enthusiasts who are curmudgeonly beyond their years.

Dal Vangelo secondo LucaIn quel tempo, Gesù diceva alle folle: «Quando vedete una nuvola salire da ponente, subito dite: “Arriva la pioggia”, e così accade. E quando soffia lo scirocco, dite: “Farà caldo”, e così accade. Ipocriti! Sapete valutare l’aspetto della terra e del cielo; come mai questo tempo non sapete valutarlo? E perché non giudicate voi stessi ciò che è giusto? Quando vai con il tuo avversario davanti al magistrato, lungo la strada cerca di trovare un accordo con lui, per evitare che ti trascini davanti al giudice e il giudice ti consegni all’esattore dei debiti e costui ti getti in prigione. Io ti dico: non uscirai di là finché non avrai pagato fino all’ultimo spicciolo».INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/nicoladon/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/nicolasalsa/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjFaPuCe1M_ju0hdCstulAw

Think about the last great visual experience you've seen. Can you name the hardware components, the types of light used, or the specifications of the speakers that accompanied this experience you're thinking of? Probably not because a great experience for a consumer is not about the hardware; it's about the feeling. On this new episode of LEDTalk, host Tyler Kern sat down with two venerable experts in creating stunning visual experiences-- David Venus, Chief Marketing Officer at PixelFLEX and Alberto Scirocco, CEO of LeftChannel. "Content is not the thing that runs the hardware, content is the whole experience," Scirocco said. LeftChannel is an Ohio-based motion graphics and animation studio with a focus on creating innovative, brand-centric work across platforms. "But sometimes we see people who are excited to run into building a visual experience so they rush straight to the solution. They figure, 'I want to put screens in this space,' but when they do that they already created a portion of the content," he said. That's why thought has to be put into the content picture as a whole, Venus explained. "Purpose really starts from the beginning," Venus said. "What are you trying to accomplish, create, and evoke in this digital experience?"

Episode 19 includes truest crimes involving Guns n’ Rosé, a drunk arsonist, and cat thievery.

His approach to self talk has inspired and motivated me, and he hits on so many key aspects during this interview that we can all implement and take on board to enhance our levels of happiness and mindsetA shining example that what you see, isn't what you always get and the importance of never judging a book by its cover.I thank Alex for his openness, his bravery and for being an all round great guy.

dad which then spiraled on to anumber of other things later down theline a first sort of new heir sort ofmental health problems was funnilyenough when out in New York theChristmas okay after I'd lost my dadI was literally walking down one of thestreets going towards Grand CentralStation and I'm I just felt so likeoverwhelmed it was said he was sostrained and that felt anything like hadjust overwhelmed and I was just likeBestway describing he was trapped insidemy own head rocky do you Jonesy no Imean I sort of trapped in my own headand I was I was just really overwhelmedfor no particular

bodyit's another thing yeah yeah laterpercent and have you so what have youdone then since then cuz obviouslyyou're similar to me in that respect soI we touched on it briefly before thissometime personal training myself rightyeah and I understand the importance ofyou know looking after yourselfphysically but more so now I train everyday more for this ya know Mike andpeople don't get that people might thinkis for aesthetics or for a six-pack orsomething it's truly not yeah it's trulytwo combines ie not have that V anymoreyeah is that something that you do aswell so I think now yeah training isvery much a part of me improving mymindset as well now it's probably themost essential thing for me nowso I know it's a difference when I don'ttrain serotonin levels drop in except Iknow some big differencelack of energy that's not now was thethat was the main one for me cuz I had aweek off my own training a couple ofweeks back and I was just tired andwaking up tired going to bed tired itwas just yeah boy it's one of them likebut then you start self sabotagingyourself don't you for not draining themwell in reality your body needs to restbut yeah I mean it's very important forthe mindset nonetheless and the morepeople can recognize that yeah thebetter creasy's yourself were you've gotgoal you've got a target point you gottayou've got a goal point focal pointmm-hmm so in terms of briefly you meantlike the mental health thing would youcall it anxiety and overwhelm or wouldyou actually call it depression have youbeen diagnosed or is it something thatyour yeah I mean oh yeah well I sufferedwell still suffer from anxiety now okaybut I had my main by that bad episodelast January I have nowhere rightabsolutely out of nowhere so obviouslywhen I lost my dad I was quite low andBobby that will be the best time verynumb okay maybe didn't understand asmuch as I should have done what wasgoing on maybe so I sort of known to thefeeling's boffing last January that thatwas a real scary moment or a scary pointI think my sleep started to go and onceyou sleep starts where you don't dealvery well with all our suffering withinsomnia this was about two weeks so Ijumped on some medication friends are indepression and slowly slowly start tolift okay and it was quite amazingreally because we've in the space of ayearI don't it's mad mad to think about abought Mustang right I traveled over Iknow another free countries childanother three countries changedworkplaces again and I'm not saying thiswas from the tablets whatsoever but Ialso think another defining thing Ibought some of Tony Robbins he's contentokay a big mindset guy guru and I boughthis content and did that for three orfour weeks and that was a bit of a gamechanger as well that's brilliantso in the space of six months to a yearand switched from literally rock-bottomI mean when I say rock-bottom I was Ihad to move to my mom's for about twoweeks would you say you were eversuicidal I had thoughts I've never hadnever come tried to commit now I didhave thoughts but I would never do okayI know but never done it but and yeah Igot to that I got to that sort of verylow pointjust lying on a sofa watching the TV andhe was he was a terrible terrible part Ithink my mom was really shocked as wellthat I've gone from that to that pointin course here it was crazyWow and I was helpless to it mmm it feltlike I couldn't do anything like nowobviously in hindsight you can recognizeyou were in this kind of slum yeah yeahso in that particular moment would youoblivious to it like how you acted rightokay not clear okay couldn't do a thingit's crazy it was literally at zero Wowand it was a kind of Tommy Tory Robinsorry Tony well and it's fully enough sowatch these pearl he's got he's got aprogram on that let's call them I am NOTyour guru yeah and I watched that everyday for like five days I'm going to crya lot yeah I was crying there's onescene with it with the lady who hadsuicidal woman yeah yeah that's whatpulled me out of it okay the suicidalwoman when she said like I can't cope nomore a car and that was a turning pointI vote no more of this now yeah yeah gotmyself back into work so obviously atthis point I was in Irelandokay I'm self-employed or wasn't earningI'm off work I'm in January a reallybusy periods of all these sports allthese sports are going on yeah yeah butyet just completely overwhelmed feltlike I was way out of controlWow didn't have a clue what was going onhow to tackle it so this six-monthtransition now you've got you've got theMustang you've gone travelling you'vesort of lifted yourself back up againyeah sort of finding your way againyeah is that a recent event now are wetalking is that now her armhow's your position right now goodstrong fantastic strong I mean from lastJanuary to this January's been verystrong okay and so on food threat thisyear and just find that then so Ifollowed Tony Robbins I follow a lot ofpa yeah because I have to how I put foodin my mouth how I lift weights I have toalso put stuff into my mind yeah Bagonon that sort of stuff whatever it iswhoever you you know you resonate with Ithink you should put it into you yeahyeah because otherwise you startwatching the news your thoughts arecompletely the wrong way yeah in withthe way that I wouldn't recommend if youwant like a strong mindset yeah so sothat's itand so what I want to know now isobviously you're in a good place nowtouch briefly on the gym stuff what'syour daily habits like now because I'mthinking there's probably a thousandpeople listening to this who canresonate with what you've just gonethrough the anxiety that feeling of justbeing in a rock yeah and I believe thatmotivation doesn't last forever and itcomes down to a level of discipline tokind of just get over those bad daysyeah so what kind of routines do you doon there like a daily basis I mean I trymy best to sort of get up the same timeevery day quickly c'est quoi best 7Harper 7 mmm saying you've got thatsolid routineI normally have breakfast as normal Iwon't so I'll prep the food for the dayahead or the on coming days because I'dnormally have gaps ok in between clientsI can pop em and prep all the food yo Dit's fresh then as well of course I'mfortunate enough that I can come backhome and get obviously so I've got astress with crap not saying it's a badthing to prep into brilliant things yeahabsolutely I don't do that anymore Icould do so close myself yeah I can justcome pop back so they're not all go towork do like my morning sessions maybestraight through into the afternoon thentrain and maybe come back then a fewmore you need depends on what theDiaries looking like okay nighttime Idon't really have caffeine past 2 3o'clock ok I cook caffeine off I'm nottoo picky with food late at nightdoesn't it doesn't really bother me yeahas long song again and that caloriesthat any impaired a thatreally matter fury at 11 o'clock or notmore so more freedom like yeah I like tosleep like yeah yeah say yeahthen I'll obviously do what I was goingon meeting where the chat with friendsgirls whatever whatever's on the agendaI don't normally train in evenings okaynot normally I'd normally have itwrapped up by get out of the way freep.m. yeah training do you listen tobooks do you read books do you do anygratitude or goal-setting or anythinglike that yeah it's funny enough for allyou're gonna see this is mad as welloh I'd actually vote when I was in thisrow yeah or as I was just coming out ofit last year I droped some goals downand every single one was it happened itwas AMA I wrote it down on piece ofpaper and stuck on the side of my bed onthe cupboard and one was buy a new cardsaid Range Rover originally why don't Iupped it out a lot but that was one Igot a new car yeah trap wait this is soweird since it said travel to freeanother three countries you've neverbeen to yeah we're not in trouble I wentto Dublin I went to Budapest I went toZurich Switzerlanddamn what was the other Craig this isthe craziest one I think once said mootmove Jim places because it will changethe game this was these worldwide okayAndyI did that you spoke about the lid yeahplastic my mindset was gone from thereto learn so I wasn't particularly happyat work yeah mr. just was not helpingmatters whatsoever yeah but it was justweird and every single one that I wrotedown yeah yeah and I didn't refer backto him all until one day I just lookedhim before yeah yeah well this is thething so I'm very big on personaldevelopment like I pride myself on mylast job think I read like 50 books orsomething okay and the first ever thisis this is why we were quite similarwhen I was 25 I was working in London atthe time and the first persondevelopment guru I ever found was 20Robbins yeah so I was listening to hisstuff I mean one of these tapes hementions writing it down and theimportance of goals and I remember Ithat particular point I wrote downI think it was like two three cause acommon belief there Birnam the phase 2and it was 2 1 buy a house and two tobuy a golf always wanted a golf croquetyou could never afford one like mom anddad blessing they brought me a fiatpunto which is like the best time everyeah it was all we could afford and isyour first car loved it to bits but inmy head was always like if I can get agolf kind of made it yeah and at thattime again in a row tip I forgot aboutit until about two three years later andI'm getting a Scirocco cuz they've justcome out a stroke I look hard beforeyeah they are amazing my kind of thefault of sure up so ever so I'm meant toget involved it's just kind of like inmy eyes a bit man upgrade yeah and I'vegot buying my first investment hold andso it was weird because I rememberfinding my books women burrows moving asa what's this and I'll pretend it's mygoals and that's why every time I'vedone it it has worked so now one of mykind of practices on every morning is towhat my goals now nothing you've justproven that yes yes because what happenssubconsciously you're almost seeing theopportunities out there and you'reprobably driving more towards a 100percent so yeah yeah I mean I writegoals down and what was everything wastalking about I meditate 39 ok yeah it'swhen I was struggling in that bad pastI've seen tell okay can ask what yourmeditation process is I just use a anyYouTube app that I really can we're richone for grieving cried she just loved itI mean this loads so simple it's asimple matter of I'm just thinking forthe listeners get on YouTube the stuffsout there type in minute yeah yeah forhowever long you can do it yeah yeah anduntil you fall asleepreally that's why also you do at nightyeah I do it at night I don't reallytend to do a probably a good ideabecause if you're anything like me butI've got to sleep and I'm worrying aboutother things I've got to do the nameyeah that's how the brain works so it'svery seductive at night isn't it yeah soI tend to do it at night and sometimes Iwon't use it if I'm quite chilled I'lljust go straight to sleepit'll depend yeah yeah so your foodobviously you're a personal trainer andI'm probably the worst person trying togive food advice because I used tosuffer with binge eating I would be veryflexible with my diet so if I fancysomething I'm just gonna eat it becauseI don't have been doin it later yeah somy diet is a bit like I do get responseson Instagram but how are you eating thisagain to me it's all about calories yeahyou know what goes into your body youbarely enough effectively European Kyeah yeah body composition so have yougot any particular foods that you eat oragain um now I mean so up more flexwe're gonna try and cut down like soobviously I've been bulking for Trump onsome mass a while now I finally hit 15stone plus now so I think I'm back downto 15 stone now was 15 stone fight fourweeks agoyeah I'm 15 stone now so I'm quiteregimented leave it now as I cut downwhen I'm trying to bulk up I'm not asrecommending I'm still in terms of thefoods I mean I'll keep the same foodslike every I'll change them up every twoweeks so if a breakfast still be oatswhey protein powder and not salt Ana'smilk yeah then two big meals of likechicken noodle stir-fry and the last methat we salmon I'm right and I'll be thesame for two weeks and ostrich eat ofwire okay it seems to be workingyeah and then obviously hydration isasleep yeah I have loads I only drinkwater really water and tea I couldpretty much have the same food I supposeon all the time my only thing is when Ifirst died I took a everything thatyou'd consider open commas here a badfood yeah and then what was happeningwas I did that for about 18 months I wasso strict and the moment I stoppeddieting because I gave up boxing all ofa sudden mate I was in like 10,000calories a day to that to that reallyhonestly to the point last um what wouldbe here I'd be out with the missus and Icouldn't buy the car back because I wasjust like glued up like the nightprofessor horrible and what used tohappen was I used to beat up for twodays Friday Saturday sometimesabsolutely hate myself swear at myselfin the mirror and I used to go to thegym three times a day up until thefollowing Thursday and then what I do isI use down to like 1800 so I'm wonderingin overtraining and then all of a suddencome Friday again when I go out for adrinkI'm drink and obviously then you loseall your common sense and I've do the10,000 Kelly thing again slow so I'lluse this thing called my fitness parkwhich yeah mate he was like this justlike you all the time so I've got overthat too hypnotherapy and why I did itand then that's why now I'm veryflexible in my process of said that youpercent my diet is like nutrient-densefood you know that the stuff that youyears they're talking about but then thelast day if I want a biscuit or achocolate you're gonna see me do itbasically okay so yeah it's interestingyeah yeah why were we accessible it's umit's crew shoulder yeah I mean I wish Ihad more of a nutrient-dense style atyourself I just think there's also anargument for sustainability as well yeahyou've got other diets sustainable andyou've got to enjoy it because that'sgonna have mental implications if not aswell if you're not enjoying your food init everything looks back to the point ifyou're not enjoying your food you're notgonna sustain it yeah therefore yourbody's not maybe where it's supposed tobe or where you want it to be thereforethe mental problems coming it's all it'sall interlinked of course everything'sinterlink to it and just on the mentalhealth thing there that you that you'reon about so would you say that'sprobably the biggest adversity thatyou've been through during that time andfor the listeners because I'm surethrough our life we're all gonna losesomebody very close to us and go forthat sort of patch in our lifewhat were the lessons that you learnfrom it and how did you fully get overit god Jerry's the 100 percent thebiggest adversity I've never experiencedanything like that my entire life noteven when the day my dad passed okay Ididn't feel as bad right as I did lastJanuary the emotional pain was just as asailor's overwhelming do you think itwas a build-up from I think every whathappened was rock so I went see acounselor like last and late last yeargoing into early this year because I'venever I never had a proper bereavementcounseling and I still had loads ofstuff underlined and I think that's whatthe bill that was okay so imagine havingthat much emotional pain build-up forwhat three years and just explode analpha to correlate shape yeah it's justit's just gone explode in the air yeahand I tell you in terms of the lessonslearn I think the bereavement counselordefinitely helped me to understand asinteresting the stuff and the lessonsthat I learned were the grief has notimelineit's now got a time line there's noproper way to grieve yeah yeah it's okayto feel back you've got it you've got tofeel these emotions you've got to feelthe emotions and not subdue them okaysee if you subdued him you have anepisode like I did and that's I wouldn'twish that wish that were my worst enemy[Music]another lesson was probably I learnedthat I'm strong a lot stronger than afault of I thought you were yeah yeah toget through that I mean there's not muchto phase me now to be honest if I cancome over that they're in the fin andand this is one of the things I've triedto do with this podcast as wellis I don't want somebody to go throughwhat you've just been through you knowto lose their parent and then go throughthe pressure what I wanted to do isrealize the last point you said that wasjust amazing it's but stronger than wewe know we are and that we think we'recapable of and I think the only way youfind that is by going through someadversity or yeah I should never know orshould I be no no this is where I love Ilove the gym and I love people that areinto the gym because when you go to thegym you don't go there to have like aluxury time you go there you put yourbody in distress yeah provided how youtrain and then you you're almost tryingto grow in that moment and I urge peoplenot just to do that in the gym to dothat through life as ah yes why I got toprobably speak in sessions when most ofthe time I choke oh you go you're goingto like help you absolutely opt thatdoes I mention that the other thingthat's been really good especially foryourself with anxiety as well I thinkthat's brilliant and the first few timesI've been there and they've asked me tosay something I'm just looked out everywannabe luck don't say it's in numberone public fear though isn't it it isand I thought in my head if I canconquer that I can conquer anything andI wonder way there now and I think liketwo weeks four actually won the bestbeat of the day coach me if you ask methree months already left yeah you knowchances that's amazing though man yeahso hence white but you're doing the samethings like you've had to come out ofthis sort of dark hole and you've doneit and you've said some amazing thingsthey're like it's okay not to feel greatgrief has no timeline and I think comingfrom a male and most of you know if youcould follow Alexpaid so like Instagram in great physicalshape you're training people you'regoing to come across as a sort of alphamale or suppose yeah yeah cause there'sa vulnerability in what you're sayingand I think as a guy I think we need toobviously it's best that more yeahbecause we have this thing like bravadolike our culture our weaknesses and Ithink especially meant to have one ofthe things I'm working on this year asare is really trying to raise awarenessfor mental health yeah because my momsuffered with it support people withmental health and I think people areyourself it make other people who may bein a similar situation to yourself thinkif alex is it 100 yeah yeah now youwon't believe the amount of people thathave told me to have gotta do you won'tbeliefs add isn't it like I honestlythink most of the human race has it tosome probably got it some degree yeahwhere some people just say you how abouta few years I've had people just comeout yeah about it for about ten yearsright but I'm the on the surfaceeveryone's got masks everyone's got amess yeah some of the strongest peopleare no wood on the surface successfuland they've come you have beenabsolutely struggling for 10 years it'scrazy my anxieties but today I'm strongyeah yeah and this is this is what I tryand be as transparent as I can on mysocial media with everything I doso ridership there something's goneabout try and say not to sound likedepressing because I don't want to comeacross as a depressing life yeah andit's almost like guys it's okay not tobe okay yeah or to have a shit day whereyou just feel like you're in the funkbut I get those days but if course he'sgone wrong like I probably had the bestday before and I wake up the next dayfeel absolute shit for note-for-note nothat's that's unfortunate the horriblething about yeah anxiety and stuff it'sit can just creep up on you forabsolutely no reasonhence why it did two years off well yeahthis was exactly and I'm overwhelmedfeeling as well oh there's there's beenoverwhelmed moderately than has beenoverwhelmedcompletely with everything that youcan't control anything you you can'teven function under the day-to-dayroutine if you ask me a question I replya very about ten-secondlater Wow it's a serious very seriousthing very serious thing and you'reworking on it now though yeah I think ofmy massive yes inroads to it to behonest and I honestly put that down tothe bereavement counselor okay so you'drecommend anyone going through that toat least talk whether it's with thecounselor you know some people have astigma attached to that but I think talkis probably one of the most important100% I mean I wouldn't see a really goodwoman called Elaine at Walsallbereavement center which is free yeahyeah free of charge so I mean that thesystem she's got there she's very she'svery very good I mean it just made meunderstand my emotions more Jamie andcosy I think the trouble with anxietyfeel completely alone with it down yeahand you think the only one in the worldyeah yeah absolutely ten times worseyeah see people need to understand thatyou're not the only one going through itand that in itself makes hugeimprovement because you feel sort oflike the most worthless one in the roomis not make sense so yeah it's nice andother people are soft it's nice to knowin a way people are suffering as well ashorrible as that I know what I mean bythat though I know it's nice to knowthat people have the same infusionproblems yeah and I think if we lickabout twenty said earlier that'sprobably the problem with society todayespecially when you're hearing aboutkids with like depression or kind ofsymptoms they go I don't like socialmedia and seeing this perfect life thateveryone's portraying yeah that's notthat's not it it's like somebody mightpost every brand new car or they mightpost a holiday but there might be indebt there might have had a bereavementthe day before so anything would havehappened absolutely and if what happensis we see that as a snapshot now you gotto remember 99.9% of people on in theworld are already gonna post highlightsthem on this follow us has greatreception we've see the good sideabsolutely and and that's kind of likethe gift and the curse I think withsocial media which is and again anotherreason I do this issay look yeah you got fantastic stuff onyour histogram you can learn a hell of alot about fitness and personal trainingand stuff but there's a real person hereand you could probably learn morevaluable life lesson yeah yeah by thisinterview that since 100% I think Ithink the kids of our generation nowthat didn't set up to fail that garbsI'm sure they've got no chance becausethey're coming to a world where they'vebeen handed this this phone here thistablet here yeah and I think I waslistening so glad you know simon Sinekyeah yeah yeah I was listening to someof his stuff I mean he's basicallysaying there's no way like kids now canhandle the dopamine fix of what they'relooking at the big good hormone fixbecause they're they're obsessed of itthat as soon as air phone pings afterhappy it's crazypick it up when they don't want you tobe happy about his own when you thinkabout it the grand scheme of things it'sjust but I was just I was drivingthrough some place near Warsaw a fewweeks ago and I was just looking and Iwas like the kids coming out of schooland every single one on the street wason the phone I'm not talking aboutone in ten every single one of them wason the phone and a fuck I just referback to when I just call I was runningaroundI mean running around and doing justcrazy stuff like I look at them now andI think that you just been cell phoneit's not their fault I don't think it'stheir fault it's not their faultI think leeches are allowing some phonesinto lessons are they now it's like yousaid potentially setting them up to failisn't it I think we're kind of like agood generation where we lived beforethe phony era but also now we get tobenefit I suppose from like a workperspective yeah so I fell into the trapinitially of like say like Instagram youknow you looking who's engaging my postand stuff yeah I do now and I probablysaid for the last four months iswhenever I write a post unlike what theFacebook I use quite a lot I just turnedmy phone off them and I only ever gotback to reply what I don't do is scrollthrough Facebook and like other people'sstuff will follow other people's stufftoo much yeah is it all supportive butbecause I don't want to put my mind inthat in that moment or no rage yeahagente really thinking yeahI'm doing enough or I'm not enoughbecause someone's always doing this sojust on my own something you have to bea bit selfish that look this is what Iwant to say if you resonate with itfantastic if you don't mind past it butI just want to get off my chest so areyou social media especially prayerthat's a way I just talked it to myselfand it's kind of like my journey yeahyeah I can be like oh yeah you shouldsay that then how much I've got grownsince yeah if that makes senseand that's helping massively because Ireckon if I was constantly on Facebookand I've done it where I'm just watchingeveryone and everyone's buying new carsand doing crazy things and I'm like youalmost been inferior a little bit yeahbut as you said those points wouldfollow up at the same time how do youknow that person is in hasn't taken ahuge loan to pay that you just put onthe Instagram of the face but of courseyeah they haven't been given thathaven't won the car you didn't it mightbe one those free optionsyou're never know any plug youautomatically think are their doing wellthey're doing it right that's the phrasenew reality probably haven't got muchself worth custom I've been given thecar so Duty absolutely and I think themost important thing is probably likehappiness that how happy are they reallyoh yes well of course this is this isthe issued so it's all falserepresentations what they do is take iton face value isn't it yeah this is itas you say it's the the pros and cons ofsocial media media but I think now whatwhat annoys me is that I have to usesocial media for business for businessat the same time I hate it yeahBono's gotta be done 100% that's that'swhere oh yes stuck between ever to letgo of social media and just try and finda way that you can live with it yeahbecause it's only gonna get worse yeahof course I mean we spoke about voicehence the podcast yeah everything'sgoing to probably voice-activatedapparently there's a massive statistic Idon't know if the top of my head thatmost people when they search into likeGoogle or Syria or something and I'mprobably talking about youngerdemographic yeah they dovia voice so that's how much is changingI mean that we're probably still used totyping stuff and it's it's incrediblereally I mean it's incredible how muchwe've developed break I just wish youknow their whole mentor half side andthat sort of it was developing at thisyeah we said yeah it's um it's very veryscary for them yeah I don't know if yourclients on any one set stuff or yeah I'mpretty much to go to guy oh yeahfantastic yeah pretty much do you be agood great advocate but very very verymuch so and i've i've had people likei've pulled people a depression i pulledthem have things by just doing what I doreally don't rely telling going from myexperiences etc regardless from youngerthan them or not doesn't matter haveanother different experience absolutelybut you have massively change peopleit's mentally physically got more thebest periodsyeah what you do what you do but I meanI'm not gonna name names I don't know soenough like I mean there was one guytrained is literally where I was interms of rock bottom he didn't lead thehouse that he didn't leave the house andhe hadn't trained in how long and Ipretty much pulled him out of it he wasin this last year I think he was in itthey're not then I didn't know hedropped before he was it fell a bit lowand poor mentally before I did so I Ifell into I fell into it I got back outof it and pulled him okay sort of out aswell which is commendable because it'sprobably the hardest thing just puttingyourself out yeah and I just rememberinglike I was trying to I was trying to getinto work but couldn't write I was tellhimself yesterday I'm going back in andfire comes to it and I can get back inand I remember I'm just saying you justtake your time etc so eventually gotback in and now he's here and of a threeor four stone down fantastic at work hada baby oh wow I love that me had a babyyeah yeah loves these training so goodstuff good on you mateso yeah he's on it now yeah I thinkbecause obviously I did my qualificationI think about eight years ago my lastfew clients I stopped at the back end oflast year they used to say the trainingand everything yeah it's fine whateverbut they say we enjoy like the mindsetporks and stuff that I used to give himlove that side of it because you don'tknow what people what stresses have goton the life and you don't know what inthat hour our slot or whatever you haveyeah you don't know how much you'llbenefit directly because people I'lltell you after G that you don't evenknow what you do yeah you don't see noyeah you don't see it yeah do you know Imean and that's a special thing I thinkthat's a special thing about the job Iagree if you can change someone's lifearound like that it's pretty bit there'sno better feeling better than earningmillions for some companies latelyabsolutely you're gonna see not much ofoh yeah so would you say that's yourkind of motivation now like movingforward or I mean what what keeps yougoing now on a daily basisthat in itself only percent that I meanI think you have to get to know people alittle bit more don't you their personalgoals what the one thing you can startto build that rapport yeah and once youstart to build that rapport it meanseven more to you doesn't it because youlied the pass and you become be the bestdigital yeah my similar so you'rerocking up into work and it's not evenwork Jeremy you doing it for them andlet's just see the seem so grateful yeahyou made me want to go back there yeahthat's a big finger isn't it I mean ifyou can if you can do that that's prettyspecial I think of course but if you canstart to retune people's minds andrelationships with food exercise withthemselves it then impacts on thepersonal life and other stuff like thatyeah you create a butterfly effect yeahpositive because I think if you if youcan start to improve that that there'sgonna be good things that'll topple overabsolutely from that closing the hardestworkers in the room in the gym andnormally the heart the most successfulpeople financially your family wiserelationship probably if you take thatlevel of discipline and work ethic intothe world it's all a discipline isn't itunder the most disciplined people aremost successful people and if you canprove that in the gym probably one thehardest I agree scenarios are going tobe ok I always look at someone and ifthey're physically in good shapeyou know you've got some good level ofdisappeared another half hours yard workI know you've had to probably go tosocial events and not eat what everyoneelse is eating or drink what everyoneelse a drink lot you've had to makesacrifices so I fully appreciate thatyeah a lot of people don't understandthat they'll call those sort of people agym free cause yes absolutely yeahwhen you think about it now the matter Ialways you've probably have to do tochange a physiques and our bodies andit's incredible incredible amount yeahbut a lot of people don't understandthat and there are a hell of a lot oflazy people yeah yeah hell of a lot oflazy people which I can't understand Idon't understand how they've got to thatyeah how about that stage whoever itstuning from a young age or Parenthood orfell in with the wrong crowdI don't know yeah do you know I mean soI don't know it's one of the pillarsthat are you so I was in corporate firstI went straight into business one of thethings that I wanted to do was to workwith people on a one-to-one basis so yesI love the person training I do it moreand I sort of mindset basis as well lieespecially property and stuff but canhelp them yeah develop and one of thefirst things I'll say before I startworking with them is you gotta get a gymplandon't be talking to liver yeah one thingfor you to do before you do anythingelse is work on yourself first so all ofthem will have to do some level ofphysical activity now whatever that isit doesn't need to be lifting weights itcould be yoga ISM going for runswhatever they want to do but you have todo some level of activity yeah yeah Imean that almost be any discomfort inorder to grow yeah and always do thatface because then I think like you saidif they're if they can work really hardto give 100% on that they're nothingokay that's a great trait with thatcould work with that person's gotworking yeah yeah whereas if they'veturn around but no I just want to learnabout this or making money but Iwouldn't do this I'm not okay I'mprobably not the right code for you yeahbecause my coach is gonna be holisticit's gonna be about everything yeah yeahand I think you'll be great at thatI think obviously as your businessstarts to expand in your personaltraining you could potentially I don'thave your own franchise I don't knowwhat your goals are but because you haveboth aspects of it I think you're veryreally well yeah yeah it is a good thingto tap into niche it's all interlinkedisn't it and it's only gonna get it'sonly gonna get moreprevalent in society a hundred percentso what's your fear now death right okayI spoke to my Cantrell about thisbecause she was like when when you losepeople close to you rather than extendedfamily or someone who's not particularlyclose to you you realize mortality cuzuntil then you're immortal our ninjaknow I mean you don't fit nothing youreally think cuz I it doesn't reallycross your mind you're invinciblethrough more so that death scares meokay now yeah that scares me and I thinkyou just you've hit the nail on the headthere because if somebody hasn't gonethrough death listening to this podcastthey're gonna think nice not reallyresonating somebody who's been throughit it almost comes in your head on adaily basis so I think everyoneeveryone's going to lose some worth somestage that's just the way the worldworks you know we haven't worked out howto survive forever and I lost aboutseven people within 18 months no friendsor familybut prior to that I'm not really lost noone so for me is like here soul and soulhas lost their granddad or the grandmaand I feel sad but that was it it wasvery short-livedwhereas now yeah that whole death thingI suppose it does scare me because Ithink I don't know if this is my lastday hence why I try and like bust my assand work as much as I can to make surethat if I was to leave today I've leftthe world in a better place yeah if thatmakes sense so is motivation it is rightit is you become more instantly you feellike most things scarier and what was itkind of saying now she was likeobviously once I lost my dad I felt likeI needed to do everything fast needed tobuy have sat down rah-rah-rah all ofthese things because she doesn't knowhow much time you've got and that'sthat's unfortunate thing of this wholerealizing mortality send you in a rushyeah that's where the anxiety sets inyeah whatever nothingness by then thatresonates with me so much because I feelI've got so much to do so many people Iwant to help and I'm like I could begone tomorrowand it scares me yeah so you're tryingto rush into it everything yeah and Iknow that's probably not the right placeI I follow of course it's not yeah butwe know we know this for your towerwe'represident absolutely well yeah thatthat's what she was saying if she feltlike oh my dad died at this age am Igonna die at this age now yeah I'vegotta do this I gotta do that harsh inorder to this yeah and in reality you'vegot all the time in the world reallyyeah but in that moment in thatchanneling yeah we exact it in your headyeah but you can't get out of its it's aparent and that's the UMthat's mortality isn't it do you followGary Vaynerchuk a little bit yeah wellhe started to grind on me after was ityes he's a mob like Jota but one of thethings he says he's really good is hesays you should be impatient in there inthe micro I either short-term or patientfor the macro for the long-term whichwhen I think about it and why he says itmakes sense so it's like yes you shouldwork absolutely like 100 percent everysingle day as if it's your last day butstill know your goals that you want toachieve and stuff are gonna take longera bit like I suppose bodybuilding forexample yeah you're now on a cot forexample to get t-they it's not gonnahappen no matter how hard you traintoday you're not going to get to thatbody today yeah even if you've had thebest I ever today something happen butwhat you can do is absolutely crush itright now and then tomorrow repeat nextday repeat and then all of the suddenyou will you will get there as well yeahso like that's one thing he says thatreally resonates with me yeah but likeyou said when you get that level ofanxiety and it it overwhelms you it'sdifficult to think you're like you'renot thinking there's no claritybasically your thoughts yeah yeah andwhat what people need to realize likeyou're in control of these thoughts youcan still control them you've justyou've gone down a path where you thinkyou can't control them do you know Imean except every four is well withinthe control we just don't know it likewhen you're in that bad patch yeahthat's right and that's what I learnt aswell and that was with the bereavementcounselor yeah yeah that's powerful butlike you are in control of your thoughtsit's just a belief that you're not thatmeans you're leaving that you're notwhen you are should we were before wewere beforebefore we had events and one not so manyI think about it a lot we were kids thethoughts we have you're invincible youknow we were going toKaizen our heroes why can't we have thatan absolutely because somewhere alonglife somebody's told you you can't dosomething or you've fallen down andrather as a kid where you keep gettingback up you've actually said you knowI'll stay down we're just going theopposite way yeah yeah that's a problemin it and it does take certain thingslike these events traumatic events andother events in your life that obviouslymake up your thoughts do you know itmeans in your beliefs your beliefs arethe one you start believing certainthings about the world and yourself thatcomes out in your actions and yourbeliefs are just a combination of thethoughts yeah cause this is why you'vegot a control everyone everyone's gotdifferent millions of ways it's not justus yeah of coursetrust me when you get to a deepconversation with someone you reallyknow what the thinking about you theyactually thinking that you know I meanso you know we're not alone with thatthat's what we've got and you are youare in control you've just got to tryyour best to control them it's a goodaffirmation tough so I do affirmationsin the morning as wellso I say stuff like I'm no longeranxious I'm not shy yeah yeah I thinkyou have to consciously make the effortwhich is a viewfinder so you have toconsciously make yeah yeah because ifsubconsciously I'm I'm not in I'mpotential everyone has to do this yeah Ican't see how you can you cannot do it Ithink everyone does do it but we assumethe people at the top like you knowyou're Dwayne Johnson you're Kevin Hartcelebrities they don't do it but theydid Wayne Johnson suffers yeah dad yeahreally badly rock is that everyone'sIdolit's amazing mean yeah and you are youare approaches of your your thoughts youare you are your thoughts on powerful meyeah but like people need to understandyou can't control them yeah if you wantto if you just let them spoil problemsisn't it absolutely yeah but whatthey've got understand if you do have aday like that that's fine push it intothe car but that's all and as well areyou better start to continue to beatyourself up for another few weeksthat lifestyle enough disease we've realsaturations and without you behind somehorses or absolute making up these theseproblems yeah which is what humans tendto do we can we can sabotage ourself asmuch as you want but we don't tend to doto us so why should we do it toourselves but we Dukes it's easyit's true though innit nice I'm notgonna say to you what's going on in myhead about I won self-sabotage myselfthen say the same stuff to you it'sdeeper nasties or what to do yeah yeahisn't that weirddo you know what I mean what so why whywhy why do we think it's right to do itto us ourselves he's probably the mostimportant at the end of the day I'm yessir if you think about it logically weare actually the most important peopleto ourselves yeah so yeah but it's it'seasy and it's easy to say to yourselfit's no one's gonna question okay we'regonna go in three two onewhat did you eat for breakfast squats ordeadlifts squats the ability to fly orbe invisible fly

Today’s guest is a newer member of EO. Alberto Scirocco joins Kevin to talk about moving here from Italy, and how his freelance design turned into a business. Since starting the company, he discusses the change in the demand and the field, and how they as a company have had to change and evolve to keep producing the best product. Tune in today to hear about some of their specific projects at Left Channel, and what Alberto hopes for the city of Columbus, when it comes to creative engagements. Key Takeaways: [:29] Alberto is a newer member of EO, and is here to share his lifeline. He is originally from Milan, Italy, and he moved to Columbus when he was 20, and attended the Columbus College of Art and Design. Coming here allowed him a lot of different artistic learning opportunities, and after he finished school he working doing design in motion for a production house. [2:35] He fell in love with the profession and advanced very quickly, and then began freelancing. His freelance venture grew to include more employees, and suddenly Alberto was running a studio/business. This began in 2008, and in the last five years, the business has been changing. There is more organization and intention about the way they are doing business. The focus now is more on solving people’s problems, which has led to a deeper satisfaction. [6:44] Originally they used to interact more with advertising agencies and operated more as an execution group. Now they interact more with companies, forming deeper connections and long-lasting relationships with their clients. [7:46] The turning point came around 2011 when Alberto had to reorganize some roles when people left, and it brought to light some of the work that had been done, and the work that was being done by others in the field. All in all, it has led to a much more positive outcome, despite the constant change. Alberto speaks to how this change in demand has affected their efforts and product. [11:50] Fortunately there are still creative opportunities for Alberto, while he’s working to develop the business side as well. There are still visual things he wants to solve, but he tries to balance the work he does for his clients with the passion projects they work on as a team. [13:55] Alberto talks about the importance of having a team. It allows for a lot of idea share that allows everyone to do stronger work. Some of Alberto’s favorite projects are the ones that play to the natural strengths of his team; their excitement makes a great work environment. Alberto talks about some of the different types of projects they have handled, as well as the ways they’ve tackled some projects that aren’t quite as exciting or demanding. [19:13] While the variety of projects they do keeps creativity fresh, it does present a bit of challenge for the business side. They are wanting to move closer to relationships and longer engagements. Project work requires more planning and hunting for projects. [21:08] Alberto talks about growing up in Italy, and where his entrepreneurial aspirations stemmed from. Growing up, he had a difficult time in school. It was when he started studying martial arts (jiu jitsu) that he felt empowered, and this translated to many other avenues of his life, including school. This experience taught him the importance of being exposed to great teachers, and served as a catalyst for his creative and entrepreneurial ventures. [26:19] Kevin and Alberto talk about the transition from Milan to Columbus. Even though they’re both big cities, there is a different mindset between the two cities. Alberto enjoys that Columbus allows opportunities to be in the fray or to take a step back from the bustle, while still being in Columbus. [30:50] Alberto got involved with EO when he began speaking at conferences. As he got to know his competitors and have a chance to talk to them, he desired to find that same community in Columbus. When he was expressing this to his friend Chris, he was introduced to EO, and it has been a great experience so far. It has provided a great platform to talk about shared experiences with people who understand, and are going through the same things. [36:50] Right now Alberto’s team is working on a lot of housework — organizing and rethinking some of their branding. They have a lot of projects coming up that should be pretty exciting for him and the team. [40:38] Recruiting can be difficult as a creative company where a lot of their competition is outside of the area. Currently they are looking to recruit more on the business side, preferably people who have some experience in business-specific roles. [44:35] One of the things Alberto wishes is that the people of the city took a braver approach at the self-perception of the city itself. Columbus has all the potential the people put into it, and it is a unique city that the people should take pride in. This may help to encourage some of the more creative businesses and originators in the city.   Mentioned in This Episode: Columbus Chapter of Entrepreneurs’ Organization Left Channel

Volkswagen is breaking out of its design straitjacket with the Volkswagen NCC (New Compact Coupe) — a near-production-ready concept with a hybrid drivetrain. High-ranking officials from VW headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany, have confirmed to Inside Line that the NCC will become part of the next-generation Jetta lineup following its unveiling at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show. The elegant front-wheel-drive coupe has been conceived to fill the hole left in VW's product line for North America following its decision to withhold from importing the Scirocco to these shores. After years of attempting to convince U.S. car buyers that hatchbacks are the wave of the future, the German carmaker has acknowledged that a traditional three-box body style is vital for any car meant to achieve sales success in North America.
