Based in Glasgow, Angela Kirkwood is an illustrator and animator known for her whimsical, topsy-turvy worlds filled with expressive characters that inspire joy and curiosity. Having worked for clients like Adult Swim, Nike and The New York Times, her work is characterized by a unique DIY aesthetic that evokes nostalgia for childhood cartoons. Angela transitioned from a career in graphic design during the pandemic to pursuing animation and illustration full-time. In this episode, Angela emphasizes the value of seeking inspiration beyond the screen. She shares how stepping away from the computer and immersing herself in real-life experiences fuels her creativity and helps avoid repetition. Angela believes that seeking out inspiration off-line allows for a more personal touch in her work, helping her create authentic art that resonates deeply with audiences. Angela's approach to character design is both intuitive and intentional, capturing the essence of human emotion in a playful and engaging way. She draws inspiration from everyday interactions, infusing her characters with a sense of joy and underlying complexity. Her characters—although often simple in form—are designed to be easily animated, allowing their personalities to shine through in motion. She also discusses the importance of community support, the impact of AI on jobs, and why life is hard, but reality TV helps. Listen, learn and stop asking for permission to be your own weird, authentic self. _________MENTIONED LINKS: • University of Dundee: BDes Illustration • “The Animator's Survival Kit” by Richard Williams • Norman McLaren (Scottish-Canadian animator) • “Quasi at the Quackadero” (1976) by Sally Cruikshank • Priit Pärn (Estonian cartoonist & animation director) • Bravo TV _________FOLLOW ANGELA: Instagram: @angelakirkwood Website: angelakirkwood.com Shop: angelakirkwood.com/shop _________If you liked this episode, please subscribe and leave a review.

Līdz 28. septembrim Rīgā norisināsies Latvijas Laikmetīgās mākslas centra rīkotais ikgadējais starptautiskais laikmetīgās mākslas festivāls “Survival Kit”. Tas pieteikts ar nosaukumu "Simurga nams" un tā mākslinieciskā vadība uzticēta Eiropā bāzētai kuratoru apvienībai "Slavs and Tatars" un Mihalam Gžegožekam. Pasākuma rīkotāji skaidro, ka, izmantojot mītisko putnu Simurgu kā simbolu, šīgada festivāls pievērsīsies transnacionālo saišu un brīvības kritiskajam stāvoklim pasaulē, kur cilvēka identitāte bieži tiek uztverta vienkāršoti. Par festivālu stāsta Latvijas Laikmetīgā mākslas centra direktore, "Survival Kit" dibinātāja un radošā direktore Solvita Krese, mākslas kolektīva "Slavs and Tatars" dalībnieks, viens no "Survival Kit 16" izstādes kuratoriem Pajams Šarifi (Payam Sharifi), "Survival Kit 16" publiskās programmas kurators Evarts Melnalksnis un arhitektu biroja OAD dizainere un ainavu arhitekte, “Grīziņdārza” vīzijas un attīstības attīstītāja Zane Legzdiņa. Solvita Krese: "Festivālu iedibinājām 2009. gadā. Patiesībā nedomājām, ka tas būs festivāls, vienkārši reaģējām uz ekonomisko krīzi, kas Latviju smagi skāra. Bija daudz tukšu veikalu, tukšu telpu un šķita, ka tās vajag apdzīvot, ievācāmies kopā ar māksliniekiem, mums bija ļoti ierobežoti līdzekļi, paši visu darījām, veidojām savām rokām, lai ar radošo enerģiju piepildītu šo tukšumu. Un tā tas festivālam iegājies, ka vienmēr izmantojam tukšas telpas, dodamies no vienas vietas uz nākamo. Kopš 2009. gada festivāls ir izaudzis par vienu no nozīmīgākajiem notikumiem Baltijas reģionā, festivāls ir apjomīgs, ar starptautisku izstādi tā centrā un ļoti dinamisku publisko programmu. Sākumā vairākus gadus spriedām, vai ir jēga veidot festivālu ar nosaukumu "Survival Kit", bet pēdējos desmit gados, īpaši pēdējā laikā ir arvien vairāk iemeslu domāt par “izdzīvošanas komplektu”. Ģeopolitiskās krīzes, karš Ukrainā un Gazā, pandēmija, ekoloģiskās katastrofas – tas viss liek domāt par nākotnes scenārijiem un to, kā izdzīvosim. Šogad festivālu kūrēt esam aicinājuši mākslinieku kolektīvu "Slāvs and Tatars", kura intereses sniedzas no Berlīnes mūra līdz Lielajam Ķīnas mūrim. Un šī nav nejaušība. Pēdējos trijos gados, kopš Krievija Ukrainā izvērsusi plaša mēroga iebrukumu, esam vairāk uzmanību pievērsuši Centrālajai Āzijai un Kaukāzam. Ceram veidot horizontālu tīklu starp Postpadomju teritorijām un Austrumu Eiropu. To nediktē ne Rietumeiropa, ne Maskava, bet mēs cenšamies rast jaunu solidaritātes formu. Šogad izstādes nosaukums ir “Simurga nams”.  Simurgs ir mītisks putns, labi zināms austrumu kultūrās. Bet es vēlējos atrast arī kādas līdzības latviešu kultūrā. Un sapratu, ka daudzās latviešu tautas pasakās figurē Brīnumputns. Viņš ir tāds kā glābējs. Ir pasaka, kurā aklā karaļa trešais dēls ar laipnību un gudrību pārvar dažādus šķēršļus, atrodo Brīnumputnu un aizvedot to atpakaļ pie tēva – Karalis, dzirdot Brīnumputnu dziedam, atgūst acu gaismu. Domāju, ka mūsdienās, šajā trakajā pasaulē, mums tādi Simurgi vai Brīnumputni ir ļoti nepieciešami, lai tie izdziedinātu mūsu laika aklos karaļus." Pajams Šarifi: "Aizvadītajos trīsdesmit gados pēc padomju savienības sabrukuma, katra valsts ir centusies spodrināt savu nacionālo identitāti, kopt savu valodu, un tas ir brīnišķīgi. Bet tas noved pie identitātes sašaurināšanas, nacionalitāšu norobežošanās un aktivitāšu limitēšanas. Un mūs, ne tikai kā māksliniekus, bet vienkārši kā cilvēkus, interesē, ko kopīgu varam atrast, kas mūs vieno. Tās nav politiskas saites, bet piemēram, šāds mītisks putns. Tādu zina Irānā, Tadžikistānā, Uzbekistānā, Azerbaidžānā un vēl citās zemēs līdz pat Ukrainai. Simurgs mūsu pasaules daļā ir tikpat zināms kā ērglis jūsu pusē. Un kad es saku „ērglis”, uzreiz prātā nāk konkrēts attēls. Ērglis vairākām valstīm ir nacionālais simbols, to redzam Vācijas, Polijas, Albānijas karogos. Ērglis vienmēr ir mačo, ļoti maskulīns, tas simbolizē impēriju un nacionālismu. Nekad neesmu redzējis ērgli attēlotu kā sievišķu būtni. Tas vienmēr ir tāds slinks toksiskās maskulinitātes paveids. Savukārt Simurgs ir pavisam citādāks. Tas ir mistisks putns, ko vari sasniegt tikai tad, ja atsakies no sava ego, tādā budisma izpratnē. Simurgs ir nebinārs, reizēm ar sievietes seju, reizēm ar suņa seju, vienmēr liesmo un pieder nevis šai, bet jau nākamajai pasaulei. Patiesa atklāsme bieži pieprasa simbolisku nāvi – atteikšanos no sevis tādā formā, kādā esi sevi līdz šim pazinis. Šī ekspozīcija ir par transformāciju, par idendtitātes pārtapšanu, par dažādām identitātēm, par transnacionālismu. Nevis tikai: ka esi latvietis, lietuvietis, polis, pat  ne caur defisi – britu-pakistānis, bet par to, ka domājam ārpus nacionalitātes robežām, meklējot to, kas mūs vieno. Vai nu tās būtu valodu grupas, līdzīgas rituāla prakses, tradīcijas – tāds ir šīs ekspozīcijas pamats. 

No 30. augusta līdz 28. septembrim Rīgā notiks Latvijas Laikmetīgās mākslas centra (LLMC) rīkotais ikgadējais starptautiskais laikmetīgās mākslas festivāls “Survival Kit”. Kultūras Rondo izvaicājam festivāla programmas kuratoru Evartu Melnalksni un Laikmetīgā mākslas centra direktori Solvitu Kresi. Apvienības Slavs and Tatars un Mihala Gžegožeka (Michał Grzegorzek) kūrēto festivāla izstādi “Simurga nams” (House of See-More), kas būs skatāma radošās pilsētas “Grīziņdārzs” telpās Zemitāna ielā 9, papildinās plaša un daudzveidīga programma, tostarp sniedzot iespēju labāk iepazīt par festivāla vadmotīvu izvēlēto mītisko putnu Simurgu.

In this heartfelt and incredibly helpful episode, Rebecca welcomes her dear friend Laura Brann to tackle one of the most emotional and logistical challenges for parents—sending your child off to college. Laura, a seasoned mom of three and an expert event organizer, shares her wisdom on everything from packing the right dorm supplies to navigating the emotional rollercoaster of drop-off day. With warmth, humor, and hard-earned insight, Laura opens up about what she learned from sending two of her children off to school—and what she'll do differently with her third.

What happens when every external support is stripped away, and all you have left are the resources stored in your mind and heart? Danny Mac explores this profound question through the remarkable story of Major Daniel Whittle, a Vietnam War pilot whose life was literally saved by the Bible verses and hymns he had memorized as a child.The turning point came during a violent monsoon rainstorm when the entire prison was plunged into darkness. As thunder crashed and rain pounded the building, Whittle suddenly recalled his 37th hymn—"Showers of Blessing," based on Ezekiel 34:26. The divine timing of remembering this particular song during an actual downpour became a powerful symbol of God's presence even in the most hopeless circumstances. As Whittle later wrote, "All this talk of scripture and hymns may seem boring to some, but it was the way we conquered our enemy and overcame the power of death around us."Danny Mac challenges listeners to consider what they're storing up inside themselves for times of crisis. Are you memorizing scripture? Do you know the lyrics to songs that move your soul, whether traditional hymns or contemporary worship music? These aren't merely religious practices but survival tools for the darkest moments of life. Join the conversation and share what spiritual resources you're building into your life today.

Listen to this fascinating chat between two experienced school heads about how to survive and thrive in the role. This is great listening for anyone interested in being a school leader and what its like being in the 'big chair'.

This week on Parenting is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg welcomes comedian Mike Cannon for a Father's Day–timed conversation packed with raw insight, humor, and real talk about parenting sensitive kids while holding onto your sanity and creative drive. Mike opens up about life with a kindergartner and a seven-month-old, reflecting on how jujitsu helped his son build emotional resilience—and how parenting has forced him to confront his own childhood trauma, OCD, and anger. The two comedians swap stories about navigating vulnerability, shifting identities post-kids, and finding joy (and a little stability) in edibles. Mike also unpacks the internal war he feels before going on stage and how childhood fears shape his on-stage energy. They cover everything from microdosing trends among parents to the strange poetry of seeing your father's face in your baby's crying eyes. He shares how a Don't Tell Comedy set pushed him to reshape his material for younger audiences, while still anchoring it in authentic parenting truths. Plus, he and Ophira bond over their shared frustration with schools punishing behavior by taking away recess—arguably the one thing kids need most.

This month's show really is going down the toilet! That is to say, the downstairs loo of our special guest Matt Skywalker-Jones, which he's turned into a bijou display room. Matt tells all to Andy P, and talks about his collecting journey, and his many vintage passions. Elsewhere, the lads ponder Star Tourism, tell all about their latest finds, and battle it out in the Action Playset Face-Off, which sees a Death Star and an Ewok Village up against not one but two Cantina playsets.  Jason hosts this month's quiz, and in New Acquisition shout-outs, we hear about 12-back display shippers, Japanese pencil cases, Peruvian board games, Helix and Letraset shenanigans on eBay, and an HCF pencil pot. A packed Rebel Briefings section sees chat about latest happenings in the collecting universe, as we catch up with a new blog on early Kenner displays, hear about the latest charitable offering from the Pennsylvania Star Wars Collecting Society, recall Thomas Troy's Troop Transporter, take a look at a Palitoy book, a signed Survival Kit and a great Greek gun, before looking ahead to Echo Live and Celebration Japan. Licensee this month is Burger King, as the team sink their teeth into a whopper of a promotion across all three original trilogy movies. Plenty of bluff, bluster and banter besides, look for the podcast in all the usual places.

When it comes to sitting around that beautiful Holiday table, something happens when we're surrounded by people who love us, where the invisible adult line called independence and autonomy is blurred, wiped out somehow, and all topics seem like fair game. As vegans we need to deal with conversations about why we aren't eating the non-vegan apple pie and what's the difference if you just have "a little butter", navigate questions about grass fed beef, animals who are treated well, mom and pop farms, and the carnivore diet. If you're in recovery from an eating disorder or disordered eating you may have to listen to people talking about their exercise regimes and what diet they're on. If you're just a regular human, you may have to navigate comments on your single status, or your childless or child free status, your child raising ways, your job status, how your body has changed. Mix a large family gathering with some extended family you haven't seen in a while, alcohol, traditions and especially food traditions, and you'll find yourself in conversations around the table where you might need a few skills that run along a spectrum of brushing it off, to a little grace and understanding, to a big dose of boundary setting. This is what we'll be talking about in today's post and episode, how to set boundaries in conversations around the Holidays, whether these surround the topics of being vegan, or any other life choice or change.

When Michael Brown was killed in his home state of Missouri in 2014, Morgan DeBaun was dismayed by the poor media coverage of the story. Realizing there was a gap in authentic, real-time coverage of Black issues, she set out in search of venture capital to build a platform for Black voices. To her disappointment, everyone she approached said no. But she found her way to social impact investors who provided the first round of funding she needed to build Blavity, a leading digital media company for Black culture and millennials. In this episode, she shares how she built an influential media empire and offers practical advice on navigating the toughest challenges of founding and leading a company. In this episode, Hala and Morgan will discuss:  - Why hard work is not enough - Being an outsider in Silicon Valley - Bootstrapping vs. raising venture capital  - Finding social impact investors to fund Blavity - Rallying her investors to raise more capital - How diversity can boost your bottom line - Celebrating wins to attract and keep the best talent - Using anonymous feedback to build a stronger team - Learning to lead 200 employees  - Balancing entrepreneurship with personal life - And other topics… Morgan DeBaun is the founder, CEO, and Chairman of Blavity Inc., a company that builds product solutions and media for Black consumers and the enterprises that want to reach them. She launched Blavity in 2014 to address the lack of media representation for Black audiences and has grown it into a multimedia empire that includes brands like Blavity News, AfroTech, Travel Noire, and Shadow & Act. Under her leadership, Blavity reaches over 100 million readers monthly and hosts AfroTech, the largest Black tech conference. Morgan advises top brands on diversity strategies and shares her insights through her podcast The Journey and The Journey Newsletter. Her work and thought leadership have earned her recognition on Forbes' 30 Under 30, America's Top 50 Women in Tech, and The Root 100.
