Podcasts about textures

Welcome back interior designer Meg Braff to the podcast! Meg first joined the show in 2017 to discuss her first book, The Decorated Home, and now she returns to celebrate her second book, Gracious Interiors, published by Rizzoli. Growing up in Mississippi, Meg watched her mother and grandmother host beautiful, thoughtful parties, and she has carried that effortless Southern hospitality into her design firm. She sits down with Caroline, Taryn, and Liz to discuss how she optimizes floor plans for hosting, why every guest room needs wallpaper, and her favorite tricks for making formal antiques feel approachable. Design for Entertaining: Meg begins every project by analyzing the floor plan to maximize how a family lives and hosts. She looks for ways to provide multiple dining options, like a small setup for six indoors or a long table for thirty outdoors, and uses elements like pergolas and outdoor fireplaces to extend the entertaining season. The "Dress Rehearsal" Trick: A great host makes entertaining look effortless so guests never feel like an inconvenience. Meg recommends setting your table the day before to ensure you have the right counts for flatware and vases, and turning on your playlist an hour early. This allows you to be fully dressed and enjoying a cocktail right before the doorbell rings. Thoughtful Guest Rooms: Wallpapering a guest room is an easy way to make visitors feel expected and special. Elevate the stay by clearing out the medicine cabinet, stocking it with nice toiletries, and leaving out a water carafe, a small plate of fruit, and a note with the Wi-Fi password. Demystifying Wallpaper: Meg—who launched her own expansive fabric and wallpaper line 18 years ago—loves bold patterns, but notes that even a simple grasscloth adds necessary warmth, depth, and texture to a room lacking architectural details. She also encourages hanging artwork directly over wallpaper, provided the pieces relate to each other in scale. Mixing Antiques & Textures: To keep formal antiques from feeling stodgy or unapproachable, Meg mixes in mid-century pieces, like brass and glass coffee tables. She also uses woven materials, like French rattan chairs, bamboo altar tables, or jute rugs, to visually lighten a room and make it feel younger. Go-To Accessories: Meg frequently layers her rooms with vintage brass, nautilus shells, colored or clear glass hurricanes for romantic lighting, and robust collections of books to make spaces feel truly lived-in.

Each chapter represents a different stage of the voyage: awakening, momentum, and what lies beyond. These are not three separate mixes. They are three chapters of the same story. Threshold II – Momentum Once the threshold has been crossed, motion becomes inevitable. Textures evolve, energy builds, and every transition drives the journey forward.

"In “Strands/Textures”, I weave together the field recording (as the main strand), with other strands of sounds inspired by the descriptive phrases and aerial images in the materials describing this section of the Lech. This piece was created in VCVRack2 using a combination of the original field recording, field recordings/foley sounds created specifically for this track, and modules available in VCVRack. "For the “string of pearls” imagery used to describe the appearance of this section from above, I added in recordings of beads and jingle bells being strung on a filament and recordings of plucking the filament. I incorporated “ears of the upper Lech” and the notions of taking space and time into the spoken word section, which is also a moment of calm and pause, but also of direction for moving forward. In a bit of word- and sound-play around the braiding of the river being constrained, I used a specific constraint for the sequenced parts of the track, I used Audible Instruments' Macro Oscillator (the VCVRack version of Mutable Instruments' Braids module). "The sequenced parts of the track represent the vibrancy of community in Stanzach around the river, but notes in sequences are randomized, bringing in additional dimensions of space and time."Section of the river Lech reimagined by Stephanie E. Vasko. -------Flow is a creative exploration telling the story of a river through the power of sound. The project is a collaboration between the University of Padova and the University of Würzburg, with support from Cities and Memory. Explore the full project at https://citiesandmemory.com/flow.

Building on de‑escalation work from Stage 1, they explore how to move past “talking about the injury” into fully opening the scene of the wound so that real limbic revision can occur. Ryan shares how his own disorientation around when and how to work with injuries led him to train intensively with George and Karen, and how doing solid attachment‑injury work actually taught him how to do all of Stage 2. James opens up about his personal learning edge—how hard it can be, as a caregiver, to invite vivid pain into the room—and what helps him stay present instead of pulling back. Across the episode, they unpack: Why “you cannot change what you cannot open” How to set a platform for attachment‑injury work that stabilizes both partners The art of scene work: evoking 5–7 concrete sensory cues to move from summary into live experience How to hold the injured partner's pain open long enough for the offender to truly feel the impact Why clients are “not fragile, they're too stable”—and what that means for our stance as experiential therapists They also connect this process to AIRM, the EFT World Summit, and the broader map of Stage 2—reminding us that deep injury work is not a side path, but a powerful way into the heart of restructuring the bond. Key Teaching Points from This Episode 1. Why Attachment Injury Work Belongs in Stage 2 Most clinical conversations get stuck in “What do we do with injuries in Stage 1?” Stage 1 is about stabilization and de‑escalation, not “doing surgery” on the injury. Once there is enough stability and safety, Stage 2 is where we go to the heart of the injury to create lasting change. For Ryan, learning to do good Stage 2 attachment injury work was how he learned to truly do Stage 2 at all (vs. just using its concepts). 2. “You Cannot Change What You Cannot Open” Effective injury repair requires fully opening the synaptic memory system of the event. Therapists must help clients move from summary (“this thing that happened back then…”) to live, embodied experience in the room. If the pain stays in the background, it acts like a “boogeyman”—emerging unpredictably and hijacking the bond. The task is not to “make them hurt,” but to give the pain that already lives in them a chance to be explicitly on stage, in a safe, co‑regulated frame. 3. Scene Work: How to Open and Stay in the Injury Ryan describes his scene‑based approach: Set a clear platform (framing why you're going here, for both partners). Open a specific scene of the injury and stay there (often 20+ minutes, “circles and circles”). Focus primarily on one partner's deep experience at a time. Use 5–7 concrete physical/sensory cues to shift out of summary and into experience: What do you see? What do you smell? Temperature on your skin? Textures around you? What's happening in your body? In your eyes? “You can't revise what you can't open”: the deeper and clearer the scene is evoked, the more powerful the potential for revision. 4. The Therapist's Own Edges and Nervous System James shares that, from his caregiving/medical background, watching vivid pain come alive in session can be hard on his own nervous system. The temptation is to protect clients from feeling too much, but: We are not creating pain. We are bringing existing pain into shared awareness so it can be held and transformed. Therapists must train themselves like firefighters: Trust your training Trust your equipment (the EFT map, Tango, AIRM) Trust the people you've trained with A healthy fear of what could go wrong is important, but must be balanced by a clear vision of what is lost if we never go there. 5. “Right Dose at the Right Time” Drawing on Bruce Perry's work: therapy requires the right dosage at the right time. Do not do this kind of deep, evocative surgery in Stage 1—that would be an overdose on an unstable system. In Stage 1: We treat the injury (acknowledge, validate, build some safety), But we do not do full surgical repair yet. In Stage 2: The partner is more available to co‑regulate and respond. The bond is more ready to sustain deep limbic work and revision. 6. Clients Are Not Fragile—They're Too Stable Ryan's provocative teaching line: “Your clients are not fragile. They're too stable.” They are stable in their woundedness and rigid organization: Rigid protective strategies Rigid negative self/other models As experiential therapists, if we treat clients as too fragile to go into these places, we: Collude with the stability of the injury Miss the opportunity for deep restructuring We must hold both: Tenderness and strong alliance (like a good mom with a third grader) Relentlessness in going after the dark places 7. Two Core Goals of Attachment Injury Repair (AIRM) Ryan summarizes the two main goals of attachment injury repair: The injured partner sees their pain reflected back in the eyes of the injurer. Not just verbal apologies The limbic system needs to register: “You are with me in this pain now, not talking me out of it.” Often assessed by asking (carefully): “Do you feel like your partner really gets the depth of this?” A felt sense of confidence that, given the same circumstances, this would not happen again. This is not cognitive reassurance alone. It's a body‑based sense that something fundamental has shifted in the bond and in the injurer. When both are present (often over multiple sessions), the injury can be considered functionally repaired, and the couple can return to the previous stage of EFT work. 8. Platform Building: How Ryan Sets Up the Work Ryan starts with a platform conversation before opening the scene: To the offender: “I'm not doing this to make you feel bad. You deserve not to have this event be the story of you.” Frames the work as a way to retire the “Scarlet Letter” and integrate the event into a larger, more hopeful story. Uses metaphors like sleeping on an unpinned grenade—life is too precarious if the injury is never addressed. To the injured partner: Names that a part of them is still stuck in that place (delivery room, the moment they discovered the affair, etc.). With their permission, he proposes spending several sessions there to go find and bring back that part of them. This platform: Clarifies what they're doing and why. Re‑establishes consent and collaboration. Begins stabilizing the offender's shame and the injured partner's fear before going deeper. 9. The Five “People” in the Room Ryan offers a helpful image: during injury work, there are effectively five people involved: The therapist The adult injured partner The adult injuring partner The younger/earlier version of the injured partner in the scene The younger/earlier version of the injurer in the scene The work is about going after all of them in a redemptive way—bringing those divided versions back into connection and coherence. 10. From Scene Work to Tango Move 5 and Back to the Map Once the scene is open, Ryan sees the work as “old‑school Step 5”: Deep affect assembly in the injured partner Clear enactments to the offender Sculpting the offender into A.R.E. responsiveness (Accessible, Responsive, Engaged) Helping the injured partner take in that responsiveness He often uses multiple, small enactments rather than rushing to one big one: Micro‑processing present‑moment shifts “What do you see in their eyes right now?” “What happens in your body as they reach for you?” Crucially, after deep injury work: Don't get so disoriented that you abandon the EFT map. Ideally, you return to where you were (e.g., late withdrawer re‑engagement) and complete the rest of Stage 2: Full withdrawer re‑engagement Pursuer softening 11. Using Yourself and Accepting Disorientation Ryan normalizes that, in late Stage 1, Stage 2, and especially Stage 2 injury sessions: He often leaves feeling completely disoriented (in a good way). It takes a minute to re‑orient, use the bathroom, splash water on his face. This disorientation is a sign that: He has fully entered the memory with them. He is using himself deeply as an experiential therapist. He distinguishes this from burnout: Burnout was more present when he tried to work these places without scene‑based experiential depth. Deep scene work, while intense, is actually more effective and less demoralizing than spinning in summary and argument. 12. Honoring Clients and the Mission of EFT Therapists Both highlight: Clients as major teachers—it's worth explicitly thanking them at times. Sue's stance: even at the end of her career, she was “excited to go up the hill and see what my clients are going to teach me today.” They frame trainers (and this podcast) as trying to be like: Military commanders who can't go on every mission, but must equip the troops well: Best training Best equipment Clear mission The closing tone: Deep appreciation for therapists who are willing to go to dark, painful places with their clients. Reassurance that with the map, the tango, and the AIRM frame, you are not walking into those places alone.

This episode is titled: The mystery of Korean CuisineOnce, long ago in the misty mountains of the Korean Peninsula, Buddhist monks carried their simple bowls into quiet temples carved from stone and cedar. It was the fourth century when Buddhism first took root during the Three Kingdoms era, bringing with it a gentle vow: to live without causing harm. The monks listened to that vow carefully, and from it grew a way of cooking that would endure for more than seventeen centuries. They called their food sachal eumsik—temple cuisine—and in every step of preparing, serving, and eating it, they practiced the art of mindfulness, turning the act of nourishment into a quiet form of meditation.In those early days, the monks followed the ancient precept against intentional killing. Meat and fish slowly vanished from their tables, replaced by whatever the mountains offered freely. By the time of the Goryeo Dynasty, records whisper of vegetarian dumplings stuffed with wild greens and kimchi made from foraged leaves. Through the Joseon era, even as Confucianism rose and temples faced hardship, the monks held fast to their craft. They learned to coax deep flavor from fermented soybean pastes—doenjang rich and earthy, ganjang salty and bright—while carefully avoiding anything that might disturb the stillness of the mind.The heart of this Cuisine rests on a few sacred rules. No meat, no fish, no eggs—mostly no animal products at all, though a few gentle allowances for honey might slip in among the more lenient. Above all, the monks shun the five pungent vegetables: garlic, onions, chives, green onions, and leeks. These, they believe, stir the senses too fiercely, awaken restless desires, and cloud the clarity needed for true contemplation. Instead, reverence guides every choice. In the fourth century, during the Three Kingdoms era, Buddhism first took root. ;;;namulgochujang, gochujang; Ingredients must come from the season and the surrounding hills—wild greens gathered at dawn, roots, supplements, mushrooms that grow in the shade of ancient pines. Nothing is wasted; peels become stocks, stems flavor broths, and every part of the plant is honored. Balance becomes the quiet art of the meal. Flavors seek harmony—earthy, salty, sweet, bitter, and the deep umami that fermentation brings. Textures play together: something crisp, something chewy, something soft. Colors follow the traditional five directions: red from chili, gochujang, hujag, ag adapted without forbidden element;, green from fresh nam; yellow from sesame; white from rice or tofu; black from seaweed or fermented soy. Spring brings bright, astringent notes; summer offers cooling, slippery dishes; autumn leans toward gentle sweetness; winter warms with sour comfort. The monks cook gently—steaming to preserve life force, simmering to draw out essence, lightly sautéing so the ingredients retain their vitality.From this philosophy spring dishes that feel both humble and profound. A bowl of doenjang-jjigae arrives steaming, its broth made from kelp and shiitake, carrying radish, tofu, and greens in quiet abundance. Hobak mandu—zucchini dumplings—might be steamed until tender or pan-fried to a golden edge, their filling a whisper of seasoned vegetables. Namul banchan appear as small jewels on the table: fernbrake glossy with sesame, balloon flower root crisp and nutty, aster leaves bright with perilla. Rice steamed in lotus leaves carries the faint perfume of the flower. On hot days, kongguksu arrives cold and refreshing, its nutty soybean broth poured over chewy noodles. Pine nut porridge warms winter mornings, and stuffed shiitake caps hold gentle potato fillings. Portions remain modest, inviting the eater to savor each bite with full attention, to feel gratitude for the chain of life that brought the food to the bowl.Read the full contentMore Podcasts Chef Walters Cooking School

Textures released their latest album Genotype in January of 2026 and because John is an insatiable fan of music that can be hard to tap your toes to, the guys had to get into it. Derek and John spent some time exploring its ambient and progressive metal elements, vocal styles, and production quality. They also got into a bit of the band's evolution, their favorite tracks, and the importance of music in coping with life's challenges.www.shittalkreviews.comSpotify - https://tinyurl.com/STR-SpotifyApple Podcasts - https://tinyurl.com/STR-Apple-Podcasts#Textures #progressivemetal #ambientmusic #albumreview #musicanalysis #musicproduction #mentalhealth #genotype #phenotype #Silhouettes #dualism #drawingcircles #polars #stefbroks #jochemjacobs #PieterVerpaalen #DanieldeJongh #dennisaarts #RemkoTielemans #metal #progDrop us a line!

HT2548 - Exposure Tones vs Exposure Textures The so-called "exposure triangle" is usually thought of as a means of controlling the lightness and darkness of an image, and that's obviously true. But we old timers learned in studying the Zone System that tones are related to textures, particularly in combination with the angle of illumination. Human vision almost never sees tones without textures. Even the absence of texture is a form of texture. This RSS feed includes only the most recent seven Here's a Thought episodes.

Reginald Jackson's inspiring new book takes a transdisciplinary approach to rethinking how we read, how we pay attention, and why that matters deeply in shaping how we understand the past, live in the present, and imagine possible futures. Textures of Mourning: Calligraphy, Mortality, and The Tale of Genji Scrolls (University of Michigan Press, 2018) explores the relationship between reading, dying, and mourning across three central texts: the Heian period The Tale of Genji; the twelfth century Illustrated Handscrolls of the Tale of Genji (or, Genji Scrolls); and the twenty-first century Resurrected Genji Scrolls exhibition. The book's analysis pivots on some key questions, including: “How does the desire to observe dying bodies potentially damage them?”; and “how do these deteriorating bodies in turn alter the texture of linguistic and visual representation?” The book addresses these questions while helping readers understand and appreciate calligraphy as a “kinetic medium” through which we might “chart the shifting contours of mortality's link to legibility between terrains of written text and painted image.” In tracing Genji's decompositional aesthetics across the four major parts of the book – Dying, Decomposing, Mourning, Resurrecting – Jackson's writing simultaneously helps us to understand how mourning can itself be a kind of reading (and how “dwelling with the dead” can be a critical practice) at the same time that his writing becomes itself a form of mourning. As he reminds us in the book, mourning is not simply about experiencing loss: it can also be a resource for thriving. Textures of Mourning demonstrates what that might look like both when studying the medieval past, and when using it as a resource to inform the contemporary present and its many forms of violence. Ranging across art history, Japanese studies, and performance studies, this is a movingly and gorgeously composed book that should serve as a model for what transdisciplinary scholarship can be, and a reminder of the importance of performing and supporting more work that dances across disciplinary boundaries.
