Dave Tourjé: You Have to Destroy What You Create to Become FreeWhen Dave Tourjé was two years old, he had a box of wooden blocks. Every day he'd dump them on the floor, stack them into towers of color, admire what he built—then destroy it and start over.That ritual never stopped.Tourjé is a painter, a punk rock musician, a skateboarder, and a founding member of the California Locos—a collective of LA artists who represent the city's raw, multicultural energy. When he sat down with me for Audio Signals Podcast, we talked about survival, rebellion, and what it really takes to stay free as an artist."You have to learn to destroy what you're creating to really become free," Tourjé told me. "Otherwise you're gonna be trapped by your own creation."He calls himself a lucky survivor of the eighties. Born in 1960, raised in Los Angeles, he hit the punk rock scene at 19, got his first skateboard at 7, and was riding swimming pools by the time urethane wheels made it possible. He studied art on scholarship but quit when they asked him to do papier-mâché in college. "That was third grade for me," he said. "I just said, fuck this. I'm outta here."He's the only practicing artist from that program.When galleries started selling his concrete and steel furniture around the world, Tourjé thought they'd embrace his paintings too. Instead, they told him to stick with what was selling. When collectors wanted commissioned work in different colors, he walked away. "I was not built to do it," he said. "So I bowed out."Instead of finding a patron, he built one. A construction company that runs without him—a machine that pays him without requiring him to owe anything to anyone. "It's going to be my patron," he explained. "It's a similar model, but without all the social implications."That freedom let him focus on the California Locos, a collective he assembled around 2011 with friends who were all leaders in their own corners of LA culture—surf, skate, street art, tattoo, photography. "We are basically Los Angeles," he said. "A very honest reflection."Their book, Renaissance and Rebellion, tells the story from the sixties to now. It's published by Drago in Rome and distributed internationally. They're currently showing at the California Surf Museum in Oceanside, with museum shows lined up for 2027 and Spain on the horizon.But the moment that stuck with me came at the end of our conversation. We talked about how musicians destroy as they create—every live performance disappears the moment it's played. "It's like painting a painting that as soon as you put it down and you go to get the next paint, the paint is gone."And when someone looks at his paintings and sees something he never intended? He doesn't correct them. "The story is the painting," he said. "As soon as the artist says what it's about, everybody has to abide by the rules."He refuses to impose meaning. Once he's done, he becomes an observer. The work is no longer his—it's an object from the past. He's already onto the next thing.That's what freedom looks like after a lifetime of rebellion.Stay tuned. Subscribe. And remember—we are all made of stories.-- Marco_______________________________________________________________________________________Audio Signals Podcast

Jensen Huang Just Won IEEE's Highest Honor. The Reason Tells Us Everything About Where Tech Is Headed.IEEE announced Jensen Huang as its 2026 Medal of Honor recipient at CES this week. The NVIDIA founder joins a lineage stretching back to 1917—over a century of recognizing people who didn't just advance technology, but advanced humanity through technology.That distinction matters more than ever.I spoke with Mary Ellen Randall, IEEE's 2026 President and CEO, from the floor of CES Las Vegas. The timing felt significant. Here we are, surrounded by the latest gadgets and AI demonstrations, having a conversation about something deeper: what all this technology is actually for.IEEE isn't a small operation. It's the world's largest technical professional society—500,000 members across 190 countries, 38 technical societies, and 142 years of history that traces back to when the telegraph was connecting continents and electricity was the revolutionary new thing. Back then, engineers gathered to exchange ideas, challenge each other's thinking, and push innovation forward responsibly.The methods have evolved. The mission hasn't."We're dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity," Randall told me. Not advancing technology for its own sake. Not for quarterly earnings. For humanity. It sounds like a slogan until you realize it's been their operating principle since before radio existed.What struck me was her framing of this moment. Randall sees parallels to the Renaissance—painters working with sculptors, sharing ideas with scientists, cross-pollinating across disciplines to create explosive growth. "I believe we're in another time like that," she said. "And IEEE plays a crucial role because we are the way to get together and exchange ideas on a very rapid scale."The Jensen Huang selection reflects this philosophy. Yes, NVIDIA built the hardware that powers AI. But the Medal of Honor citation focuses on something broader—the entire ecosystem NVIDIA created that enables AI advancement across healthcare, autonomous systems, drug discovery, and beyond. It's not just about chips. It's about what the chips make possible.That ecosystem thinking matters when AI is moving faster than our ethical frameworks can keep pace. IEEE is developing standards to address bias in AI models. They've created certification programs for ethical AI development. They even have standards for protecting young people online—work that doesn't make headlines but shapes the digital environment we all inhabit."Technology is a double-edged sword," Randall acknowledged. "But we've worked very hard to move it forward in a very responsible and ethical way."What does responsible look like when everything is accelerating? IEEE's answer involves convening experts to challenge each other, peer-reviewing research to maintain trust, and developing standards that create guardrails without killing innovation. It's the slow, unglamorous work that lets the exciting breakthroughs happen safely.The organization includes 189,000 student members—the next generation of engineers who will inherit both the tools and the responsibilities we're creating now. "Engineering with purpose" is the phrase Randall kept returning to. People don't join IEEE just for career advancement. They join because they want to do good.I asked about the future. Her answer circled back to history: the Renaissance happened when different disciplines intersected and people exchanged ideas freely. We have better tools for that now—virtual conferences, global collaboration, instant communication. The question is whether we use them wisely.We live in a Hybrid Analog Digital Society where the choices engineers make today ripple through everything tomorrow. Organizations like IEEE exist to ensure those choices serve humanity, not just shareholder returns.Jensen Huang's Medal of Honor isn't just recognition of past achievement. It's a statement about what kind of innovation matters.Subscribe to the Redefining Society and Technology podcast. Stay curious.

From the January 5 Episode: A New Year's MVP Ballot, The Jokic Injury and a Jaylen Brown Renaissance, The Pistons and Their Possibilities

In this episode of The Fractional CMO Show, Casey tackles the question every fractional CMO is asking: Which AI tools should I be using? But his answer isn't what you'd expect.    Casey admits he spent 14 months considering ditching fractional work entirely to chase the AI gold rush. Instead, he doubled down on something old-fashioned: actually knowing how to do the work. He shares war stories of letting Claude write a client report that turned out mediocre, and the AI-generated voiceover that everyone hated - until his experience proved it doubled results.    The truth? AI won't fix bad fundamentals. If you can't write persuasive copy yourself or don't understand how ads actually work, ChatGPT will just help you produce garbage faster. Learn the craft first, then use AI to speed up what you already know how to do right. Key Topics Covered: -Be a Renaissance man/woman first: Understand copywriting, design fundamentals, how ads actually work before touching AI  -Study the masters: Gary Halbert, John Carlton, Paris Lampropoulos, David Deutsch - learn persuasive copy from the greats  -AI can't replace taste, discernment, and experience: These three things are what clients actually pay you for  -Do it manually first, then use AI to scale: Write the ad yourself, make it work, then prompt AI for 50 variations  -His actual AI stack: ChatGPT and Claude for writing, Eleven Labs for voiceovers, Lovable/Bolt for quick web mockups  -Don't outsource critical thinking: AI note-takers and automation rob you of the skills that make you valuable

What was the role of experimentation in early science? How did past scientific paradigms continue to influence current scientific discourse? What is the utility of understanding the history of science for modern scientists?Peter Dear is a professor emeritus of history at Cornell University, and the author of several books, including The World as We Know It: From Natural Philosophy to Modern Science and Discipline and Experience: The Mathematical Way in the Scientific Revolution.Greg and Peter discuss the evolution of science from natural philosophy, addressing how scientific progress is not simply a linear journey towards greater knowledge. Peter talks about the transformative periods like the Renaissance and the scientific revolution, and the debate over the definition and significance of terms like 'scientific revolution.' They also explore how today's scientific practices are deeply rooted in 19th-century developments. Their conversation also covers the historical context behind Newton's and Darwin's work among other famous scientists throughout history.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:The two “registers” of science09:50: Science nowadays, and through the course of the last, well, developing over the last two centuries, really in the 19th and 20th centuries, science is still talked of as if it were a naturaln actual philosophy, even if that term is not used very much anymore. Science is sometimes regarded as something that is about understanding the universe, understanding the natural world as if it is an intellectual enterprise and just an intellectual enterprise. And at the same time, it is also regarded as something that is practically useful, practically valuable, and these two different registers for talking about science, I think, sort of ride alongside one another and switch back and forth depending on how it is that people want to represent any particular kind of knowledge.The birth of experimentation22:23: One of the things about experimentation, is that it was a matter of developing practices, procedures for generating knowledge claims about nature that were different from the ways in which experience had been used, particularly in Aristotelian or quasi-Aristotelian context, to talk about the behavior of nature. Experiments are a particular way of understanding what experience is useful for in making sense of the world.The twin dimensions of science40:30: I think all scientists have always relied on the twin dimensions of science, the fact that science can be regarded as an actual philosophy when it's talking about the way things are, and the fact that science can be regarded as, or talked about in terms of, instrumentality. When you are focusing on the capabilities, the practical capabilities, the particular ideas and procedures enable you to do, and at different times and places, scientists will sometimes play up the natural philosophy side of things and at other times play up the instrumentality side of things, depending on what it is interested in talking about at the time. But I think everyone, all scientists, regard those as both essential elements, so to speak, of what scientific inquiry is all about.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Scientific RevolutionFrancis BaconParacelsusAristotleNicolaus CopernicusGalileo GalileiIsaac NewtonRené DescartesRobert BoyleTaxonomyCharles LyellAlbert EinsteinThomas KuhnGuest Profile:Academia PapersProfessors Emeriti List at Cornell UniversityGuest Work:Amazon Author PageThe World as We Know It: From Natural Philosophy to Modern ScienceRevolutionizing the Sciences: European Knowledge in Transition, 1500-1700Revolutionizing the Sciences: European Knowledge and Its Ambitions, 1500-1700Discipline and Experience: The Mathematical Way in the Scientific RevolutionThe Intelligibility of Nature: How Science Makes Sense of the WorldMersenne and the Learning of the SchoolsResearchGate Page Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, we examine the decisive clash between Martin Luther and Pope Leo X, focusing on the documents and events that turned reform into rupture. We walk through Exsurge Domine (Arise, O Lord) and Decet Romanum Pontificem(It Becomes the Roman Pontiff), explaining what Rome actually condemned, why Luther refused to recant, and how authority, obedience, and doctrine became the central fault lines of the Reformation.The episode also explores Luther's responses in 1520, the public burning of the papal bull, and the appeal to a future council, alongside Leo X's broader vision for the Church, including his patronage of Renaissance art through figures like Michelangelo and Raphael. By grounding the discussion in primary sources rather than slogans, this episode asks a crucial question: who has the authority to judge doctrine when Scripture itself is disputed?This is a historical and theological deep dive into how competing claims of authority produced one of the most consequential schisms in Western Christian history.If you'd like to donate to our ministry or be a monthly partner that receives newsletters and one on one discussions with Dr. Stephen Boyce, here's a link: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7Here a the link to the documents: https://www.papalencyclicals.net/leo10/l10exdom.htmhttps://www.papalencyclicals.net/leo10/l10decet.htm

This video introduces Cesare Borgia, a central figure of the "italian renaissance" whose audacious "power struggle" and "machiavellian tactics" are explored. We examine the "historical facts" behind his ascent, noting how his actions influenced "niccolo machiavelli" and shaped the era of "pope alexander vi."In this episode of Hidden Forces in History, we follow the Borgia rise:- How Rodrigo Borgia bought the papacy and became Pope Alexander VI- The murder of Juan Borgia and why Rome blamed Cesare- Cesare's brutal conquest of the Romagna (and the Senigallia trap)- The poison rumors, the fear weapon, and why their reputation “worked”- How their corruption helped ignite the chain reaction leading to Reformation-era backlash- The real pattern: institutions with moral authority becoming cover for private powerThis isn't Renaissance gossip. It's a template—old, repeatable, and still visible today.

The Emperor's New Groove, unfortunately lumbered as part of the blame for the beginning of the end of Disney's Renaissance period, is actually three movies in one:The original movie that was never made, Kingdom of the SunThe movie we gotAnd the documentary that Disney does not want you to see, The SweatboxIn this episode, I'm going to be telling you about all three; plus the alleged DreamWorks plan by ex-Disney chief Jeffrey Katzenberg to beat Disney to release with The Road to El Dorado, the fact The Emperor's New Groove didn't have a script until two weeks after it was released, and how The Emperor's New Groove accurately predicted the tonal change to Hollywood animation in the 2000s.If anyone asks you how did Disney managed to make The Emperor's New Groove, you could just refer them to this episode, or you could simply say “well, ya got me, by all accounts, it doesn't make sense”.Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode.

Step into the shadowed corridors of history with the latest episode of Cryptic Chronicles as we unravel the enigmatic world of Renaissance demonology. This was a time when the arcane intersected with the intellectual, as scholars, theologians, and occultists sought to catalog the infernal hierarchy and decode the mysteries of dark spirits. In this episode, we delve into the era's most infamous grimoires, explore the influence of Renaissance magic on the perception of demons, and examine how cultural and religious shifts shaped humanity's understanding of the supernatural. Whether you're fascinated by the lore of infernal pacts or the philosophical debates of the time, this episode shines a light on the Renaissance's complex dance with the demonic.

(01:02) OVT doet natuurlijk niet anders dan terugkijken op wat er is gebeurd, maar in de laatste uitzending van het jaar doen we dat traditiegetrouw door aandacht te besteden aan bijzondere mensen die ons het afgelopen jaar ontvallen zijn. Met onze recensenten Wim Berkelaar, Fresco Sam-Sin en Bart Funnekotter. Zij bespreken:  Jane Goodall  Alice Wong  Ronald Venetiaan  Robert Jay Lifton  Lili Veenman  Anthony Grey Margot Friedländer Ozzy Osbourne Peter Arnett   (49:00) Deze week is de column van Sana Valiulina.    (55:45) Al jaren verslindt journalist Erik van den Berg dagboek na dagboek voor zijn rubriek in de Volkskrant. Elke doordeweekse dag is er weer een historisch dagboekfragment met de datum van die dag. In een krant vol actualiteit geeft zijn rubriek de lezer een inkijk in het verleden.    (1:09:21) Op een dag hoorde Olga Majeau over een sprookjesachtig kasteel dat had toebehoord aan haar Hongaarse voorouders. Een kasteel boven op een berg, met twee torens en een toegangspoort. En in dat kasteel bevond zich de grootste schat: een immense Renaissance-collectie met werk van kunstenaars die in wereldmusea hangen: Correggio, Bernini, Tiepolo, Rafaël, Brueghel…  Het kasteel is inmiddels een hotel, maar de kunstcollectie is verdwenen. Waarom is het kasteel niet meer in de familie? En wat is er met de kunstcollectie gebeurd? Valt er nog iets van terug te vinden?    Olga's zoektocht naar antwoorden blijkt al snel een heus true crime verhaal over internationaal kunstrecht, over duistere belangen, en over de perfide trekjes van de kunsthandel.         Luister naar Zeg Paus, waar is m'n kunst? gemaakt door Olga Majeau en Stef Visjager voor AVROTROS en NPO Luister, en werd mede mogelijk gemaakt door het NPO-fonds.

Order 'The Golden Thread: A History of the Western Tradition' by Professor James Hankins here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Golden-Thread-Ancient-World-Christendom/dp/1641773995UnHerd's Freddie Sayers talks with Professor James Hankins, a forty-year veteran of Harvard University, about the precarious state of the Western tradition and the burgeoning resistance movement in classical education. Moving through a 2,500-year narrative arc from the ancient Greek invention of reason to the modern-day "cult of innovation," Hankins warns that elite institutions are suffering from a dangerous cultural amnesia. But, despite the degradation of the canon, offers a defiant hope rooted in history, arguing that Western civilisation has survived near-extinction before and remains ripe for a new Renaissance.

On this episode of Thelema Now!, host Harper Feist is joined by author and occult scholar Frater Acher for a deep exploration of his book The Olympic Spirits: Paracelsus' Practice of the Inner Stars, published by Three Hands Press. Frater Acher delves into the enigmatic system of the Olympic Spirits as presented by Paracelsus, unpacking their planetary nature, practical magical applications, and relevance for contemporary practitioners. Moving beyond theory, the conversation explores inner cosmology, visionary practice, and how working with the "inner stars" can become a living, experiential path of initiation. This episode is an illuminating discussion on planetary magic, historical sources, and modern praxis—essential listening for students of Thelema, Renaissance magic, and serious occult work.

The greatest energy source for civilization before the steam engine was wind. It powered the global economy in the Age of Sail. Wind-powered sail ships made global shipping fast and cheap by harnessing free, reliable ocean winds to propel large cargo loads over vast distances without needing fuel or frequent stops. It also powered windmills, the factories of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Windmills allowed for abundant bread by milling flour by turning heavy grindstones with wind-driven sails. They also powered trip hammers to forge iron and steel by lifting and dropping massive weights. We can credit them as well for pumped water, sawed timber, and processed oils, spices, and paper. Wind is one of most elemental yet overlooked forces shaping our world today, and it is at the center of the human story. Many times it changed history – such as “Protestant Wind” saving England from the Spanish Armada, kamikaze winds halting the Mongol invasions of Japan, and easterlies carrying Chernobyl’s fallout. Wind also powers massive turbines today, but there was a forgotten moment in the 1880s when we could’ve chosen wind power over fossil fuels. It even creates certain types of civilizations. Some historians believe the cleverest and most civilized people lived in places where weather was varied and posed constant challenges. Today’s guest is Simon Winchester, author of “The Breath of the Gods: The History and Future of the Wind.” We look at how wind—life‐giving and destructive, chaotic and harnessable — has shaped civilization from antiquity to today.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
