This is a preview — for the full episode, subscribe: https://newmodels.io https://patreon.com/newmodels https://newmodels.substack.com Our guest is Orit Halpern: co-author of The Smartness Mandate (MIT Press, 2023); author of Beautiful Data: A History of Vision and Reason since 1945 (Duke, 2014); and Full Professor and Chair of Digital Cultures at Technische Universität Dresden. Often in discussions about machine learning and smartness, AI is presented as the natural path of human progress, an evolutionary – almost biological – development that emerged out of human communication systems and that has the potential to far exceed them. But as Orit argues, these technologies are neither inevitable nor inhuman. Rather they are the result of a particular intersection of neoliberal theory, psychology, and computer science that generated the economic incentives, political will, and public desire for AI to exist in the specific form we have now. On this episode, Orit animates the technological imaginary that gave rise to our culture of AI, asking, among other things, how a highly adaptive, machine-learning enabled world changes the terms of political possibility and human revolution.

In this episode, we dive into why dominant European perceptions of China turned sharply negative in recent years. Drawing on fresh academic insights from the recently published article “Bundling Threats: Why Dominant Perceptions of China Changed in Europe” by Shaun Breslin and Mikael Mattlin, the authors and Ágota Révész explore how shifting narratives—not just facts—shape policy decisions. The discussion unpacks the deeper, underlying reasons behind these changing perceptions, as well as their more immediate triggers. We also look at how a powerful image of China as a future threat towards European values and interests influences how today's actions by China and Chinese organizations are interpreted, creating a reinforcing loop with real policy consequences. Tune in for a thought-provoking look at how stories, assumptions, and fears drive international relations. This discussion is based on the following article: Shaun Breslin and Mikael Mattlin, “Bundling Threats: Why Dominant Perceptions of China Changed in Europe,” The Chinese Journal of International Politics, Volume 18, Issue 2, 2025, Pages 196–219, https://doi.org/10.1093/cjip/poaf003 Discussion hosted by Ágota Révész, China Centre at the Technische Universität TU Berlin.

Fritz Häber, The Complete Diary: 16 Months in an American POW Camp by Bernd Häber Amazon.com Worldstrings.com 16monthsaspow.com Examining history through family archives frequently complicates our understanding of the past. This complexity is heightened when descendants encounter diverse forms of testimonial evidence from a bygone era—whether it be a photograph, an object, postcards, official documents, or a diary—and undertake the challenging endeavor of deciphering the meaning of these personal remnants within the broader context of historical events. This diary stands apart from the typical World War II narratives found in documentaries, textbooks, and retellings, often providing only the highlights and a broad overview. For readers seeking a genuinely fresh and intimate perspective on the physical war and psychological war that unfolds beneath the surface, this real-life account offers an insightful and comprehensive experience. This is the story of Fritz Häber, a young German father who grappled with the dual responsibilities to his family and country. His reflections provide personal insights that extend beyond him to encompass broader global perspectives. Forced to serve in a Nazi anti-aircraft unit near Munich during WW2, he later endured 16 months imprisoned in an American POW camp. Fritz Häber begins his diary with this dedication: “I dedicate these pages to my wife and my children of whom I hope are still alive and whom to find well when I return from captivity… May these lines serve my wife in the future as a compensation for the long time during which she knew nothing about my well-being, and for the children to serve as an example of how human destinies can get easily mixed up.” Stories such as his prompt an exploration of our family histories and their untold narratives. They illuminate themes of resilience and survival, morality and choice. Even when these tales harbor discomfort or controversy, they possess the power to enlighten us and offer valuable guidance for our present actions. His steadfast and unyielding belief in his survival gave him the faith that he would be reunited with his family one day. Having endured physical and emotional challenges, his story is a timeless, powerful source of inspiration 75 years later and will resonate with future generations. From the author: n this book, which is both a diary and a memoir, you will meet my grandfather, Fritz Häber. As a child, he was just my grandpa, a jovial, vigorous, warmhearted man, whom I would visit during the occasional holiday vacation. It was only later when contentious, life altering, family events were revealed to me that I realized Fritz had served in Hitler's Wehrmacht during WWII, one of the most tumultuous and violent time periods of world history. I had so many questions. Although his part in this global drama can be considered minor, he extensively documented his experiences and shared his astute reflections on everything from human psychology to political philosophy. Like many history buffs, I have spent countless hours reading about high level diplomacy and watching documentaries that detail the technical and military aspects of war, but it was not until reading Fritz's diary that I could fully imagine both the momentous decisions he made and the drudgery of being a reluctant soldier. Fritz, an antifascist, not only warns “human destinies can get easily mixed up” during war, but also reminds us to pay attention to forces that might interfere with our lives in unexpected ways. I am excited to now share his story with you. About the author Bernd, grandson of Fritz, was born in East Berlin - after the Berlin Wall was erected. He grew up in the German Democratic Republic under a Communist ruling government. Bernd attended the Technische Universität in Chemnitz in Saxony/Germany and graduated with a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Process Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing.
Bücher oder DVDs ausleihen – dafür muss man heute nicht mehr in die nächste Stadtbibliothek. Um dennoch attraktiv zu bleiben, gehen manche Bibliotheken neue Wege: hier kann man Nähmaschinen oder Kunstwerke leihen, 3D-Drucker oder Podcast-Studios nutzen, mit Freunden zocken oder gar Behördengänge erledigen. Aber funktioniert das auch in der Praxis? Welche Chancen haben Bibliotheken auf dem Land? Und können Bibliotheken unsere Innenstädte wiederbeleben? Norbert Lang diskutiert mit Dr. Jonas Fansa – Betriebsdirektor der Zentral- und Landesbibliothek Berlin; Ragna Körby – Stadtplanerin, Rheinland-Pfälzische Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau; Tanja Weißmann – Leiterin der Stadtbibliothek Ludwigshafen

#herkesesanat #çağdaşsanat Bir pisuar sanat tarihini nasıl değiştirdi? Öncüsü Beuys'a göre her insan bir sanatçı! Yüksek ve alçak kültür arasındaki sınırı bulanıklaştıran sanat biçimi! Anlamak çok zor! ... Bilgi Üniversitesi'nden Esra Yıldız rehberliğinde çağdaş sanatla tanışıyoruz. Çağdaş sanatın ne olduğunu, önemli sanatçı ve eserleri öğreniyoruz. ... Çağdaş sanat, yüksek kültürle alçak kültür arasındaki sınırı bulanıklaştıran, salt estetikten uzak, toplumsal kaygılarla üretilen sanat biçimi. Öncülerinden Joseph Beuys'a göre, her insan bir sanatçı. Belki bu yüzden çağdaş sanatı anlamak zor! Tarihsel aralık açısından sanat tarihçileri iki döneme işaret ediyor: İlki, 2. Dünya Savaşı sonrası dönem. Milyonlarca insanın toplama kamplarında öldürülmesi ve bundan sonra artık nasıl devam edileceği sorusu. Frankfurt Okulu'nun temsilcisi Adorno'nun, “Auschwitz'ten sonra şiir yazılamaz” sözünün ardından sanatçıların yapıtlarına dikkat çekti. İkinci dönem, 1960'dan günümüze kadar devam eden dönem. Feminizm, çevre hareketlerinin yükselişi, siyah haklar hareketi, 1968'de gençlerin ve işçilerin hareketi açısından önemli dönem. Sanatçıların bunlara karşılık gelen üretimlerini görüyoruz... ... Esra Yıldız'ın çağdaş sanata örnek olarak anlattığı sanatçılar ve eserleri: “Hazır yapıt” terimini literatüre kazandıran Fransız sanatçı Marcel Duchamp - 1917'de Bağımsız Sanatçılar Sergisi'ne gönderdiği ancak reddedilen eseri “çeşme / pisuvar”, modern sanat döneminde olsa bile, çağdaş sanatın kırılma noktası kabul ediliyor. Çağdaş sanatta önemli bir yeri olan, toplumu sanat aracılığıyla şekillendirmede önemli rolü olan Alman sanatçı Joseph Beuys. Ona göre her insan bir sanatçı. Almanya'da 2. Dünya Savaşı'nda tahrip edilen ve ekolojik yapısı bozulan Kassel kentini canlandırma amacıyla yaptığı “7 bin meşe” çalışması, örnek eserlerden. Bu bölüm için seçtiği müzikler: John Cage'ten “Music for Marcel Duchamp” ve “Fontana Mix” Joseph Beuys - Sonne statt Reagan 1982 Türkiye'den örnek verdiği sanatçılar: Ayşe Erkmen - Berlin'de bir evin dış cephesindeki “mış'lı” yerleştirmesi. İstanbul'da İstiklal Caddesi'nin Tünel tarafındaki bir heykeli var. Nur Koçak, Nil Yalter ve Sarkis'in de 70'lerden itibaren öncü isimler. Filmlerin, çağdaş sanatı anlamak açısından önemini vurguladı. Agnes Varda'nın “Les Glaneurs et la glaneuse” / “Toplayıcılar ve Ben” adlı belgeselinin izlenmesini önerdi, neden önemli olduğunu anlattı. Çağdaş sanat ve felsefe ilişkisine dikkat çekti, Fransız felsefeci Jean Francois Lyotard'ın 1985'te Paris Pompidou Kültür Merkezi'ndeki sergisinin önemli olduğunu belirtti. Bu sergi için: https://www.centrepompidou.fr/en/collection/film-and-new-media/les-immateriaux-1985 Ve günümüz filozoflarından Fransız sanatçı Georges Didi-Huberman'ın halen Madrid'de devam eden sergisini işaret etti. Bu sergiyle ilgili için: https://www.museoreinasofia.es/en/exhibitions/in-the-troubled-air NEDEN ESRA YILDIZ? İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi Kültür ve Sanat Yönetimi Bölümünde öğretim üyesi. Lisans derecesini Çevre Mühendisliği (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, İTÜ) ve Sosyoloji (İÜ), yüksek lisans (İTÜ) ve doktora derecelerini (İTÜ) Sanat Tarihi bölümünden aldı. Doktora çalışmaları sırasında Technische Universität Berlin'de bulundu. Doktora sonrası çalışmalarını Berlin Humboldt Üniversitesi ve Paris EHESS'te sürdürdü. Critical Arts, African Arts, International Journal of Arts Management gibi dergilerde, Routledge, Intellect, İstanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi Yayınları gibi yayınevlerinden çıkan kitaplarda akademik çalışmaları, makaleleri yayınlanıyor. Akademik çalışmalarının yanı sıra, Sayfalar Arasında Bir Gölge: Sahaf Vahan (2010) ve Vatansız (2021) belgesel filmlerinin yönetmeni.

In 1976, NASA's two Viking spacecraft touched down on Mars, becoming the first successful landers on the red planet. On board Viking 1, the craft carried several biological experiments to search for life. While most scientists consider the results of those experiments to be negative for Martian life, one experiment gave a positive result. The resulting controversy has spanned decades, with numerous scientists weighing in. Now, Dirk Schulze-Makuch from the Centre of Astronomy and Astrophysics (ZAA) at Technische Universität Berlin questions how those experiments were performed in light of what we know of extremely dry environments here on Earth. These Mars analogs, such as the Atacama desert in Chile, show that while microbes can survive in harsh conditions, too much water becomes a problem. And those Viking experiments may have involved too much water. Join Dr. Franck Marchis as he discusses Dr. Schulze-Makuch's recent Nature Astronomy article and how we should follow the salts instead of the water. (Recorded 28 October 2024.)
Mit Hilfe des Geo-Engineerings soll der Klimawandel abgemildert werden, z.B. indem Kohlendioxid aus der Luft geholt wird. Wenn man solche Methoden angeht oder erforscht, dann hat das Auswirkungen nicht nur auf ein Land. Die American Geophysical Union (AGU) hat jetzt ethische Rahmenrichtlinien für die Erforschung von Geo-Engineering herausgebracht. Stefan Troendle im Gespräch mit Prof. Daniel Heyen, Technische Universität Kaiserslautern-Landau.
Dáta majú nezastupiteľnú úlohu v moderných výrobných procesoch. Okrem toho s nimi narábame pri každodenných činnostiach, ako je napríklad využívanie internetu či rôznych mobilných aplikácií. S dátami sa pracuje aj v zdravotníctve, energetike, doprave, vo finančných službách, ale aj v mnohých ďalších odvetviach. Nachádzajú sa všade okolo nás a ich potenciál je, zdá sa, nekonečný. Samotné využívanie dát, ich zber, analýza a implementácia do automatizačných systémov v priemysle nám pomáhajú optimalizovať výrobu, znižovať náklady a zvyšovať efektivitu. Využitie pokročilých automatizačných technológií môže výrazne optimalizovať výrobu. Ako prebieha automatizácia výrobných procesov? Aké úspešné príklady máme z rôznych priemyselných odvetví? Čo sú to dáta? Ako vyzerá zber a analýza dát? O týchto aj o ďalších otázkach sme sa rozprávali v podcaste na portáli VEDA NA DOSAH s doc. Ing. Radoslavom Paulenom, PhD. Doc. Ing. Radoslav Paulen, PhD., pôsobí v Ústave informatizácie, automatizácie a matematiky na Fakulte chemickej a potravinárskej technológie Slovenskej technickej univerzity v Bratislave. Jeho výskum sa zameriava na využívanie dát pre modelovanie a optimalizáciu v procesnom priemysle. Pôsobil na viacerých zahraničných inštitúciách, ako je Imperial College London, Institut National Polytechnique de Lorraine vo francúzskom Nancy či Technische Universität Dortmund. Pracoval a pracuje na viacerých vedeckých projektoch podporovaných Európskou úniou.
We are revisiting a recent favorite episode this week…Construction: is it only slow to innovate due to tradition, or is there another conversation to be had? In this episode, Sarah Buchner joins the podcast to discuss the industry's outlook on new technology, the difference between AI and “IA,” how to leverage artificial intelligence as a tool in your career, the worldwide issue of construction data inconsistencies, and her company, Trunk Tools, Inc. Sarah Buchner, Ph.D. is CEO of Trunk Tools, Inc. With 20 years of experience in the construction industry, she has founded four live construction technology applications. She holds a Doctorate in Civil Systems Engineering/Data Science from Technische Universität Wien and an MBA from Stanford University Graduate School of Business. She was recently listed on Forbes' 30 Under 30. Todd Takes Embracing Innovation: Innovation should not be seen as a threat but rather as an opportunity for growth in construction. It paves the way for advancements that can transform traditional practices. Technology Adoption in Construction: The construction industry is receptive to adopting technology when the immediate benefits and reasons are clear. This dispels the myth that construction is inherently resistant to innovation. AI as a Collaborative Partner: At its best, AI serves as a powerful partner that enhances human capabilities. It allows humans to focus on critical thinking while it augments and processes data efficiently. Thanks for listening!

The beginning of the modern contraceptive era began in 1882, when Dr. Aletta Jacobs opened the first birth control clinic in Amsterdam. The founding of this facility, and the clinical provision of contraception that it enabled, marked the moment when physicians started to take the prevention of pregnancy seriously as a medical concern. In Contraception: A Concise History (The MIT Press, 2020), Donna Drucker traces the history of modern contraception, outlining the development, manufacturing, and use of contraceptive methods from the opening of Dr. Jacobs's clinic to the present. Drucker approaches the subject from the perspective of reproductive justice: the right to have a child, the right not to have a child, and the right to parent children safely and healthily. Drucker describes contraceptive methods available before the pill, including the diaphragm (dispensed at the Jacobs clinic) and condom, spermicidal jellies, and periodic abstinences. She looks at the development and dissemination of the pill and its chemical descendants; describes technological developments in such non-hormonal contraceptives as the cervical cap and timing methods (including the “rhythm method” favored by the Roman Catholic church); and explains the concept of reproductive justice. Finally, Drucker considers the future of contraception—the adaptations of existing methods, new forms of distribution, and ongoing efforts needed to support contraceptive access Dr. Donna Drucker leads the English as the Language for Instruction Project, which helps faculty, administrative staff, scientific staff, and students at the Technische Universität Darmstadt (Germany) improve their English abilities for teaching and learning. Chris Babits is an Andrew W. Mellon Engaged Scholar Initiative Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin. He researches the intersecting histories of medicine, religion, and gender and sexuality and is currently working on his book about the history of conversion therapy in the United States.

She looks at the development and dissemination of the pill and its chemical descendants; describes technological developments in such non-hormonal contraceptives as the cervical cap and timing methods (including the “rhythm method” favored by the Roman Catholic church); and explains the concept of reproductive justice. Finally, Drucker considers the future of contraception—the adaptations of existing methods, new forms of distribution, and ongoing efforts needed to support contraceptive access Dr. Donna Drucker leads the English as the Language for Instruction Project, which helps faculty, administrative staff, scientific staff, and students at the Technische Universität Darmstadt (Germany) improve their English abilities for teaching and learning. Chris Babits is an Andrew W. Mellon Engaged Scholar Initiative Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin. He researches the intersecting histories of medicine, religion, and gender and sexuality and is currently working on his book about the history of conversion therapy in the United States.

The beginning of the modern contraceptive era began in 1882, when Dr. Aletta Jacobs opened the first birth control clinic in Amsterdam. The founding of this facility, and the clinical provision of contraception that it enabled, marked the moment when physicians started to take the prevention of pregnancy seriously as a medical concern. In Contraception: A Concise History (The MIT Press, 2020), Donna Drucker traces the history of modern contraception, outlining the development, manufacturing, and use of contraceptive methods from the opening of Dr. Jacobs's clinic to the present.

Unser heutiger Gast hat zunächst sein Vordiplom in BWL an der Universität Mannheim absolviert und dann an die Technische Universität München (kurz TUM) gewechselt, um Architektur zu studieren. Beide Studien schloss er mit einem Diplom ab, den betriebswirtschaftlichen Teil an der Fern-Universität Hagen. Er war fast 10 Jahre bei dem internationalen Architekturbüro Henn beschäftigt. Darunter waren Stationen als Project Director und Office Manager in Shanghai, als Project Director und Team Lead Automotive in Shenyang und zuletzt als Team Lead Programming und Innovation. Seit 2016 forsche er an der TUM zu den Themen Architectural Entrepreneurship, Innovation und Zukunft der Arbeit. Seit 2020 leitet er an der TUM als Manging Director das TUM Venture Lab Built Environment. Im Jahr 2023 wurde unser heutiger Gast für seine herausragende Dissertation und sein langjähriges Engagement im Zusammenwirken der Disziplinen Architektur und Management, sowie seine proaktive Förderung der Entrepreneurship-Kultur an der TUM School of Engineering and Design mit dem Franz-Berberich-Preis 2023 ausgezeichnet. Seit mehr als 7 Jahren haben wir uns in nun schon 436 Folgen mit weit mehr als 500 Menschen darüber unterhalten, was sich für sie beim Thema Arbeit geändert hat und was sich weiter ändern muss. Wir sind uns ganz sicher, dass es gerade jetzt wichtig ist. Denn die Idee von “New Work” wurde während einer echten Krise entwickelt. Welche Rolle spielt das Thema Architektur für eine neue Art des Arbeitens? Und was können wir aus der Denk- und Arbeitsweise von Architekten über Innovations- und Arbeitsprozesse in Unternehmen lernen? Wir suchen nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen! Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei "On the Way to New Work" - heute mit Dr. Christos Chantzaras. #NewWork #onthewaytonewwork #blackboat #newworkmasterskills #TUM

On December 19, 1980, Shlomo Lewin, the former chairman of the Jewish community in Nuremberg, and his partner Frida Poeschke were shot dead in their house in Erlangen. Instead of pursuing the leads that led to the right-wing extremist group Wehrsportgruppe Hoffmann, investigators concentrated on Lewin's social environment for a long time. As part of UC San Diego's Holocaust Living History Workshop, German historian Uffa Jensen reconstructs the crime and its motivations, in the process unearthing a history of violence, trivialisation and repression that continues to this day.

Construction: is it only slow to innovate due to tradition, or is there another conversation to be had? In this episode, Sarah Buchner joins the podcast to discuss the industry's outlook on new technology, the difference between AI and “IA,” how to leverage artificial intelligence as a tool in your career, the worldwide issue of construction data inconsistencies, and her company, Trunk Tools, Inc. Sarah Buchner, Ph.D. is CEO of Trunk Tools, Inc. With 20 years of experience in the construction industry, she has founded four live construction technology applications. She holds a Doctorate in Civil Systems Engineering/Data Science from Technische Universität Wien and an MBA from Stanford University Graduate School of Business. She was recently listed on Forbes' 30 Under 30. Todd's Takes Embracing Innovation: Innovation should not be seen as a threat but rather as an opportunity for growth in construction. It paves the way for advancements that can transform traditional practices. Technology Adoption in Construction: The construction industry is receptive to adopting technology when the immediate benefits and reasons are clear. This dispels the myth that construction is inherently resistant to innovation. AI as a Collaborative Partner: At its best, AI serves as a powerful partner that enhances human capabilities. It allows humans to focus on critical thinking while it augments and processes data efficiently. Thanks for listening!

the last words from A. Einstein.Inside of our body is the life force or life energy when we alive. When we pass by, then what happens with this energy? We can't destroy energy. We (our energy) leave our body, as soul/mind. This means we get rid of this false identification with our body and become the spirit again. And this is so true… I was three times clinical dead… I should know it. During my passing by, I remembered the Golden Moments in my life in very intensive pictures… saw my body from the perspective of a bird, nothing to bother about. I could even enjoy it, and last time I didn't want to come back…. Because I felt so free, no worries….I have read that this is totally normal… For what we have a fear of death? The Germans scientists had simulated the death on many people with drugs, read here, the entire report is as download link at the end. Berlin | A team of psychologists and medical doctors associated with the Technische Universität of Berlin, have announced this morning that they had proven by clinical experimentation, the existence of some form of life after death. This surprising announcement is based on the conclusions of a study using a new type of medically supervised near-death experiences, that allow patients to be clinically dead for almost 20 minutes before being brought back to life.This controversial process that was repeated on 944 volunteers over that last four years necessitates a complex mixture of drugs, destined to allow the body to survive the state of clinical death and the reanimation process without damage. The body of the subject was then put into a temporary comatic state.Most common memories include a feeling of detachment from the body, feelings of levitation, total serenity, security, warmth, the experience of absolute dissolution, and the presence of an overwhelming light.The scientists say that they are well aware the many of their conclusions could shock a lot of people, like the fact that the religious beliefs of the various subjects seem to have held no incidence at all, on the sensations and experiences that they described at the end of the experiment. Indeed, the volunteers counted in their ranks some members are a variety of Christian churches, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, and atheists.“I know our results could disturb the beliefs of many people”, says Mr. Ackermann. “But in a way, we have just answered one of the greatest questions in the history of mankind, so I hope these people will be able to forgive us. Yes, there is life after death, and it looks like this applies to everyone.” My video: I can't die, I am Energy… https://youtu.be/RLWiIZFg5a8My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.A/I-can't-die-I-am-energy.mp3http://healthandwellness365.com/2016/07/02/german-scientists-prove-there-is-life-after-death/

Luca Lo Sapio"Carne coltivata"Etica dell'agricoltura cellulareCarocci Editorewww.carocci.itLa carne coltivata non è più fantascienza, ma una realtà alle porte: costituisce una delle nuove frontiere dell'industria alimentare post-animale, in cui l'interesse per il benessere degli animali non umani si coniuga a una rinnovata attenzione per l'ambiente e la salute dell'uomo. Il volume svela il potenziale di una tecnologia che potrebbe ridefinire il nostro rapporto con il cibo, la salute e l'etica ambientale. Con una prospettiva tesa a guardare oltre convenzioni e pregiudizi – dal disgusto al cannibalismo, fino alle critiche morali che fanno leva sulle categorie di natura, diritti e virtù –, il libro non è solo un'esplorazione delle controversie etiche, ma una bussola che indica una possibile via d'uscita dalla crisi umanitaria e ambientale che ci opprime. È un invito a prepararsi all'impatto di un cambiamento epocale: come sarà accolto, come potrà essere integrato nella nostra società e come e in che misura potrebbe aiutarci a vivere in armonia con gli animali non umani e il nostro pianeta.Luca Lo Sapio, insegna Bioetica e Filosofia morale nell'Università di Torino. È stato visiting researcher presso la Technische Universität di Darmstadt ed è coordinatore del Gruppo di ricerca internazionale feat (Future Eating) e fellow dell'Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies di Boston. I suoi interessi di ricerca sono rivolti alla bioetica, all'etica animale e ambientale e alla filosofia della medicina.

Als linke, queere Jüdin fühle sie sich gerade sehr allein, schreibt uns eine News-Plus-Hörerin in einer Mail. Ihr Eindruck: Nach dem Terror der Hamas am 7. Oktober würden sich Teile der queeren oder antiautoritären Linken ausgerechnet mit der Hamas unkritisch solidarisieren. Gibt es tatsächlich Sympathien in gewissen linken Kreisen für die Hamas und woher kommt das? Wie lässt sich Haltung zeigen, ohne antisemitisch oder islamophob zu sein? Das schauen wir in dieser Folge an.

Ein Leben in Freiheit, unabhängig von Rasse, Geschlecht oder Religion – so lautet das Versprechen der „Allgemeinen Erklärung der Menschenrechte“ vom 10. Dezember 1948. Doch nicht erst seit russische Soldaten in der Ukraine Kinder entführen, seit dem Blutbad der Hamas und dem Tod Tausender Palästinenser stellt sich die Frage, was davon heute, 75 Jahre später, noch übrig ist. Weltweit leiden 735 Millionen Menschen an Unterernährung, 100 Millionen sind auf der Flucht – die Kluft zwischen Anspruch und Realität ist groß. Aus der nicht-westlichen Welt kommt die Kritik, der Kampf für Menschenrechte sei die Fortsetzung kolonialer Ausbeutung. Ist die Idee der Menschenrechte noch zu retten?

In this episode, I sit down with Stefano Bacci, Partner and ESG Manager at Ambienta, a private equity asset manager that was purpose-built to pursue environmental sustainability investing in resource efficiency and pollution control. Ambienta is the largest private equity fund manager in Europe dedicated to investing entirely in environmental sustainability.Stefano grew up in Milan, (despite maintaining that he is culturally from Tuscany!). When choosing his career path, he was advised by his parents – both chemists – not to follow in their footsteps if he ever wanted to make any money (!) which led him to study Chemical Engineering at the Politecnico di Milano. He then went on to complete a PhD in Physical Chemistry at the Technische Universität Darmstadt in Germany.Stefano's early career took him to Switzerland where he worked for Ciba-Geigy (later acquired by BASF) in numeric modelling. Five years later, a chance conversation with a fellow graduate from his Ciba-Geigy induction period led him to study for an MBA, starting in Helsinki, then transferring to MIT in Boston.Following his MBA, Stefano spent ten years working in consultancy at the Boston Consultancy Group, which brought him back home to Milan for a year, then on to Stockholm, then to Helsinki where he set up the BCG office and finally to Germany where he spent several years working in the run-up to the ‘dotcom bubble'. It was at this juncture in his life that he decided to switch to investment management and began working at Palamon Capital Partners, where he spent several years, before returning to Italy to work with Ambienta.In this episode, Stefano takes us on a journey from his studies in chemical engineering right through to the point when Ambienta co-founders Nino Tronchetti Provera and Rolando Polli convinced him that sustainability was the way forward. We learn more about these two people who inspired him in his early days at Ambienta and how his passion for sustainability has grown over the years. We discuss how Ambienta considers sustainability and ESG as two very different things, and how they invest in businesses where resources are used more efficiently in order to reduce pollution, waste in landfills and improve air and water quality. We discuss how Ambienta measures the impact of their investments, their typical investors, why sustainability is primary in their investment selection, and much more.I really learned a lot chatting with Stefano, whose passion for environmental sustainability is clear. I hope you enjoy listening to our conversation!About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

Francesco Wiedemann is Co-Founder of Kyte, a door-to-door, app-based car rental delivery company that ambitiously intends to become the largest fleet operator on the planet with 10 million trips per month by 2030. Join Jim and Francesco as they how Francesco went from winning entrepreneurial pitch contests at Harvard and MIT to co-creating a rental car startup that has raised $300 million to date. 3 Key TakeawaysIdentifying Market Gaps: Francesco and his co-founders realized there was a gap in the mobility market for travel longer than an Uber ride but shorter than requiring a long-term car lease. This led them to create Kyte, a service that fills this gap. For entrepreneurs, the lesson is clear: look for areas where existing solutions are lacking or incomplete and aim to fill that void with a better offering.Finding the Right Pricing Strategy: Francesco discussed how they initially underestimated the complexity of pricing in their market. Over time, they invested in developing a pricing engine to optimize their offerings. Pricing is often an overlooked aspect of business strategy, but it's crucial for competitiveness and profitability. Entrepreneurs should continuously evaluate and reevaluate their pricing strategy to meet market demands and operational costs.Help Investors See Your Vision: Kyte secured a credit line from Goldman Sachs despite being a small operation at the time. This was possible because they could convey the potential of their business model and its scalability to investors. Entrepreneurs should focus not just on what their company is now, but also on what it could become, especially when pitching to investors or financial partners.Use Kyte's promotion code for $20 off On Ktye's website or in the Kyte app, at checkout use “THEDIRT20” promo code to get a $20 discount on your purchase.

Before starting Kyte, he worked as a Product Manager for BMW Mobility Services, where he launched mobility services combining carsharing and ride hailing in the US and China. In 2019, Francesco co-founded Kyte, where he leads the company's product vision and product strategy. Fun fact: Years ago, Francesco broke the Guinness World Records for the longest mountain bike wheelie in one hour.

It's a fresh Friday to get out there and “move some lives forward” (Thanks Liza Borches for that phrase). Today we're talking about the released UAW demands and GM's response. We also cover Carvana's move to same-day delivery, as well as a jailbreak of Tesla's infotainment system.Citing the 40% rise of CEO salaries for the Big 3, Shawn Fain, President of the United Auto Workers union announced the union would be seeking wage increases of a 20% raise upon ratification, followed by 5% raises annually over the four-year period."The CEOs of the Big 3 over the last four-year agreement have enjoyed a 40 percent increase in pay on average, so I don't think our workers asking for their equitable share, when inflation's gone up almost 20 percent in the last four years, I don't think it's asking a lot for our members to look for their fair share."Also included in the proposal is a proposed 32 hour work week with a full 40 hours worth of pay saying “I think it will create more jobs, more opportunities for people to get their share in the economy.”GM released a statement pushing back against the broad demands saying that the demands "would threaten our ability to do what's right for the long-term benefit of the team."They also alluded to the threat of many new automakers positioning for market share by saying "We think it's important to protect U.S. manufacturing and jobs in an industry that is dominated by non-unionized competition.”Carvana has begun offering same-day vehicle delivery to customers in specific areas in Arizona, Indiana, and North Carolina after initially launching and testing in the greater Phoenix area Same-day delivery eligibility largely depends on the proximity of the customer to the selected used vehicle and the availability of delivery slots amidst other customer orders.Carvana plans to further roll out this offering across its nationwide footprint in the upcoming months.Three students from Technische Universität Berlin and an independent researcher have cracked Tesla's infotainment system, scoring free upgrades like heated rear seats.This car 'jailbreak' might even unlock self-driving and navigation features where they're usually off-limits.The researchers were also able to extract personal information from the car, such as contacts, calendar appointments, call logs, visited locations, Wi-Fi passwords, and session tokens from email accounts.To jailbreak the car, they used a technique called “voltage glitching,” which involves manipulating the supply voltage of the AMD processor that runs the infotainment system.This sort of hack requires physical access to the car.According to the researchers, Tesla would have to replace the hardware to prevent such attacks.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion
Smartness has permeated our lives in the form of smartphones, smart cars, smart homes, and smart cities. It has become a mandate, a pervasive force that governs politics, economics, and the environment. As our world faces increasingly complex challenges, the drive for ubiquitous computing raises important questions. What exactly is this 'smartness mandate'? How did it emerge, and what does it reveal about our evolving understanding and management of reality? How did we come to view the planet and its inhabitants primarily as instruments for data collection? In the book 'The Smartness Mandate,' co-authored by Professor Orit Halpern, the notion of 'smartness' is presented as more than just a technology, it is presented as an epistemology — a way of knowing. In this episode of Bridging the Gaps, I speak with Professor Orit Halpern, where we delve into the concept of smartness. We explore its historical roots and its cultural implications, particularly its emphasis on data-driven technologies and decision-making processes across domains such as urban planning, healthcare, and education. Orit Halpern is Lighthouse Professor and Chair of Digital Cultures and Societal Change at Technische Universität Dresden. She completed her Ph.D. at Harvard. She has held numerous visiting scholar positions including at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin, IKKM Weimar, and at Duke University. At present she is working on two projects. The first project is about the history of automation, intelligence, and freedom; and the second project examines extreme infrastructures and the history of experimentation at planetary scales in design, science, and engineering. Our conversation begins by discussing the idea of “smartness” as presented in the book. To understand it better, we look at a few examples. The book suggests that the smartness paradigm relies a lot on collecting data, analysing it, as well as monitoring people through surveillance. We talk about the possible risks and consequences of this data-focused approach for personal privacy and individual rights. Next, we talk about how the smartness idea connects with the concept of resilience. We also touch on the fact, as presented in the book, that the smartness paradigm often reinforces existing power structures and inequalities. We explore the biases and ethical concerns that may arise with the use of these technologies. Furthermore, we explore the possibility of using the smartness approach to promote fairness and equality. We talk about how it could be applied to create a more just society. We discuss the significance of multidisciplinarity, and the role of higher education institutions and educators to create an enabling environment for an informed discourse to address these questions. Professor Orit Halpren emphasises the importance of exploring these questions and addressing relevant concerns to make sure we create the kind of world we truly want for ourselves.

Over the last half century, "smartness"—the drive for ubiquitous computing—has become a mandate: a new mode of managing and governing politics, economics, and the environment. Smart phones. Smart cars. Smart homes. Smart cities. The imperative to make our world ever smarter in the face of increasingly complex challenges raises several questions: What is this "smartness mandate"? How has it emerged, and what does it say about our evolving way of understanding—and managing—reality? How have we come to see the planet and its denizens first and foremost as data-collecting instruments? In The Smartness Mandate (MIT Press, 2023), Orit Halpern and Robert Mitchell radically suggest that "smartness" is not primarily a technology, but rather an epistemology. Through this lens, they offer a critical exploration of the practices, technologies, and subjects that such an understanding relies upon—above all, artificial intelligence and machine learning. Orit Halpern is Lighthouse Professor and Chair of Digital Cultures and Societal Change at Technische Universität Dresden. Robert Mitchell is Professor of English at Duke University.

In the ninth episode of Season 11 of the Propcast, host Louisa Dickins is joined by Mateo Zimmermann, Investment Manager at CEMEX Ventures, Chris Bone, Co-Founder & CEO at Modulous and Tim Davies, CEO at HiiROC Ltd. Episode Highlights: • The work that each of the businesses do and how they collaborate • The work HiiROC are doing to try and make hydrogen more affordable • The main issues currently facing the construction industry and the work being undertaken to try and find solutions • How these issues can impair innovation and make the industry quite risk averse • The work Modulous are doing on ESG • The challenge with bringing new talent into the industry who can help drive innovation and technology adoption Why it can take longer to see the rollout of new technologies within the space The different speed of innovation adoption across the industry and the frustrations this can cause • The investments CEMEX are making in companies working on green construction • The issues with supply/ delivery of materials and the work CEMEX are doing to try and resolve this • The future they all see for construction Resources: • LMRE Global Recruitment and Search Consultancy• LMRE YouTube Interviews• PropTech Salary Report, LMRE 2022• Leaplab | CEMEX Ventures• Construction Startup Competition • McKinsey• Modulous• Synhelion• PartRunner – Home Key Takeaways: • CEMEX have been amazing for us through this process because they're thought leaders in their space. They have great views on how the industry can be changed and that's something that we're very keen to help facilitate. Our vision is to help solve the housing crisis while protecting the planet. - Chris • We are rolling out the production of hydrogen, but we're working with partners like CEMEX to say how do we use it in the right setting? So how do you use it to produce cement? How do you use it to produce steel or for transport? - Tim • We can only tackle the challenges our industry are facing, and I want to emphasise on that, if we industry players collaborate to build a better future. - Mateo • We're continually looking at both the physical product and the carbon content of that product. And until you understand the carbon content, it's very difficult to drive change, to improve that, or to be able to track it and understand exactly what level of carbon is, in our instance being put in our buildings. - Chris • It's a very tight margin business. Therefore, when you look at cement or steel and the like to suddenly introduce a much higher energy cost because you're using hydrogen, not natural gas or whatever else is nigh on impossible. So we as technology providers have to provide the solution that makes it affordable. - Tim • I think the paces are also a little bit different. There's obviously a lot of innovations in terms of materials that are happening, but not necessarily there is an adoption on the job site right on construction. - Mateo • It's very inefficient and obviously materials are a large part of the construction budget. So from 40 to 60% depending on the country and it's highly inefficient. It's actually one of the biggest reasons for delays in construction. - Mateo About Our Guests: Mateo Zimmermann Mateo Zimmermann is Investment Manager at CEMEX Ventures, responsible for the Corporate Venture Capital Investments in startups in the Construction technology space. Before joining CEMEX Ventures, Mateo worked at The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) from 2013 to 2017 as a Management Consultant, where he promoted to Project Leader. He previously worked at StepOne as an Advisor for startups and corporates in their Digital Strategies. Before that he worked as an Investment Analyst in Private Equity and Corporate Debt at the Asset Management division of Arcano. He also worked for UBS and Electrolux Group. Mateo has a double degree in Engineering and Management. He graduated as MSc in Industrial Engineering and Management at Technische Universität Berlin (Germany) and obtained a Master in Management at ESCP Europe (Paris, France). He was born in Madrid (Spain) and has both the Spanish and German citizenship. CEMEX Ventures The global economy has endured a tough 2022. With decades-high inflation sapping post-lockdown spending and pushing central banks to hike borrowing costs at an unprecedented clip to bring it under control. Yet despite poor projections and an overall decline in VC funding, 2023 represents an optimistic year for startups in the ConTech sector. Predictions point to trailblazing new technologies and business models entering the industry to improve sustainability and reduce the global carbon footprint. That's why CEMEX Ventures, the corporate venture capital and open innovation unit of CEMEX, goes beyond simply investing. Since 2017, CEMEX Ventures develops relationships between entrepreneurs, investors, CEMEX, and other corporations in order to revolutionize the construction industry as we know it today. Chris Bone Chris is CEO and co-founder of Modulous, the construction technology company that was formed to address the global housing crisis while reducing the climate impact of real estate development. Chris has 25 years' experience in the construction industry, having managed businesses across consulting, manufacturing, and construction. At Modulous he is responsible for all aspects of the company's growth and development in the UK, Europe, and the USA. Modulous Modulous was founded in 2018 by a team of construction, technology, and manufacturing specialists to create an asset-light model for the design and delivery of sustainable homes. Its integrated digital and physical product suite is designed to make the whole construction cycle - from feasibility right through to delivery on site - more efficient and effective. Its software platform generates optimised schemes based on a Kit of Parts, which is manufactured within the supply chain, removing the need for dedicated factories. The Kit of Parts is a standardised set of assemblies providing a high-performance net-zero modular housing system, delivered in half the time of traditional housebuilding, with 70% less waste and 60% lower embodied carbon. Modulous has offices in London and Seattle and is the first globally scalable technology solution to address both the worldwide housing crisis and escalating climate emergency. Tim Davies Tim has held Chief Executive & Board roles across a variety of sectors including green-tech, retail & service-providers working with both corporates and start-ups. He has a proven track record of identifying and delivering new business opportunities and considerable value creation including 20 years' experience working for PE & VC-backed businesses. Now, as CEO of HiiROC, Tim and his team have developed a technology with a potentially transformational impact on Climate Change. HiiROC A transformational new technology for affordable, clean hydrogen production using world leading proprietary plasma technology. HiiROC's Thermal Plasma Electrolysis (TPE) uses renewable (or grid) electricity to split hydrocarbons (biomethane, flare gas, natural gas, propane, etc) into zero-emission Hydrogen and inert solid Carbon Black (i.e. without producing CO2). TPE works at a fraction of the cost of Water Electrolysis, without the CO2 emissions of Steam Methane Reforming and is scalable from micro onsite (saving transport & storage costs) to industrial scale. The highly versatile technology is being piloted globally in 2023 across the hydrogen sectors from industrial decarbonisation to transport to grid blending and power management whilst also being used for flare gas mitigation and CO2 reduction using biomethane.
