Podcast appearances and mentions of tom higham

Jak si starší ročníky pamatují ze školy, vývoj člověka byl velmi lineární: opice, Australopithecus, Homo erectus, neandertálci a pak my. Jak ale ukazují moderní výzkumy, ve skutečnosti se po Zeměkouli pohybovalo mnoho odnoží a variant našich dávných předků. Jak to s vývojem člověka bylo, popisuje v knize Svět na počátku evoluční antropolog Tom Higham, který se výzkumem našich předků sám zabývá.

Ceri explores the world of digital art and creative leadership with Tom Higham, Creative Director and founder of Mediale. Tom shares his knowledge and experience, from film festivals to cutting-edge digital projects, and gives his thoughts on artist development, community engagement, and the challenges of running a creative organisation. Ceri and Tom also talk about personal health, leadership styles, and share their visions for the future of arts and technology. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tom's career highlights the importance of networking and seizing opportunities in the arts, from volunteering to leadership roles. Effective creative leadership involves balancing artistic vision with practical considerations like funding, stakeholder management, and team dynamics. Community engagement in arts projects requires a genuine interest in people's stories and a collaborative approach between artists and local groups. The digital art sector is very international, presenting both opportunities and challenges for UK based organisations and artists. Successful arts organisations need to adapt their leadership and project approaches based on the specific context and scale of each initiative. Tom stresses the importance of clear communication and boundary setting in leadership, while maintaining flexibility and empathy to be successful. Personal health management, including addressing invisible disabilities is essential in sustainable creative leadership. The arts sector should critically examine the impact and sustainability of large scale cultural events versus ongoing, community focused initiatives and what they can alternatively offer. BEST MOMENTS  "I always found I would tend to let the work expand to fill the time I give it." "Talking, communicating to different people outside of your inner sphere is quite a skill and there aren't that many people in the arts who do that well, I don't think." "You have to build the trust to be able to take that risk, I think that's really important, but also to build that trust, you have to tell a compelling story." "The hardest stuff about being an arts leader is probably, I'm imagining, similar to the hardest stuff about being a leader in the energy sector or in the retail sector. It's people." "I think you've clearly done so well over your career is actually that trust and that deep love that you have for the artists and their idea, but then finding the language and the synergy, those kinds of moments of alignment with somebody else." "Clarity is kindness, you know, and sometimes that means even if you're saying clearly, actually, no, that doesn't work for me, it actually helps people to understand and take action accordingly." "I would suggest to artists that you have to figure out what you want to pursue and figure out how to talk about it."

Fifty thousand years ago, Homo sapiens was not the only species of humans in the world. There were also Neanderthals in what is now Europe, the Near East, and parts of Eurasia; Hobbits (H. floresiensis) on the island of Flores in Indonesia; Denisovans in Siberia and eastern Eurasia; and H. luzonensis in the Philippines. Tom Higham investigates what we know about these other human species and explores what can be learned from the genetic links between them and us. He also looks at whether H. erectus may have survived into the period when our ancestors first moved into Southeast Asia. Filled with thrilling tales of recent scientific discoveries, Tom Higham book The World Before Us: The New Science Behind Our Human Origins (Yale UP, 2021) offers an engaging synopsis of our current understanding of human origins and raises new and interesting possibilities--particularly concerning what contact, if any, these other species might have had with us prior to their extinction. Melek Firat Altay is a neuroscientist, biologist and musician. Her research focuses on deciphering the molecular and cellular mechanisms of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders.

'Fascinating and entertaining. If you read one book on human origins, this should be it' Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules - For Now 'The who, what, where, when and how of human evolution, from one of the world's experts on the dating of prehistoric fossils' Steve Brusatte, author of The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs 50,000 years ago, we were not the only species of human in the world. There were at least four others, including the Neanderthals, Homo floresiensis, Homo luzonesis and the Denisovans. At the forefront of the latter's ground-breaking discovery was Oxford Professor Tom Higham. In The World Before Us, he explains the scientific and technological advancements - in radiocarbon dating and ancient DNA, for example - that allowed each of these discoveries to be made, enabling us to be more accurate in our predictions about not just how long ago these other humans lived, but how they lived, interacted and live on in our genes today. This is the story of us, told for the first time with its full cast of characters. 'The application of new genetic science to pre-history is analogous to how the telescope transformed astronomy. Tom Higham brings us to the frontier of recent discoveries with a book that is both gripping and fun' Paul Collier, author of The Bottom Billion 'This exciting book shows that we now have a revolutionary new tool for reconstructing the human past: DNA from minute pieces of tooth and bone, and even from the dirt on the floor of caves' David Abulafia, author of The Boundless Sea 'The remarkable new science of palaeoanthropology, from lab bench to trench' Rebecca Wragg Sykes, author of Kindred 'Higham's thrilling account makes readers feel as if they were participating themselves in the extraordinary series of events that in the last few years has revealed our long-lost cousins' David Reich, author of Who We Are and How We Got Here 'A brilliant distillation of the ideas and discoveries revolutionising our understanding of human evolution' Chris Gosden, author of The History of Magic

Sick of hearing about running? Here's  a podcast about archaeology! Steve talks to Prof Tom Higham from Oxford University about lockdown in Greece and Tom's work with carbon dating religious relics and Neanderthals. Topics also cover Greek food, who would win in a race between a Neanderthal and a Human and whether archaeology really is as sexy as Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford and Tom Hanks (Da Vinci Code) both get a mention.

It’s one thing to understand the potential of art to impact our everyday lives, its quite another to provide the drive to make it happen. As an Arts Professional, Tom Higham facilitates festivals, art projects and events. His role is to link us, the audience, with the art. It’s an arts organisation’s job, he says, to find something that we can connect to.By his own admission, he coasted through education until the combination of dead-end job and volunteering at film festivals provided the lightbulb moment. After a Masters in Cultural Management, his career rapidly evolved as he worked with artists, developers, designers, arts organisations and policy makers all over the world to curate and produce ambitious artworks and creative projects. Most recently, and closer to home for us, he’s taking on the role of Creative Director at York Mediale. He says: ‘’I am interested in the enabling power of digital technology, and inspired by well-considered, simple and effective ideas and artworks.’’ Ideal, then, for the Mediale with its strapline ‘’Art, Meet the Future.’’It’s through York’s 2018 Mediale that Tom’s and Stage One’s paths first crossed. Sitting between us and the artists whose work we help to create, we were interested to find out more about his role, perspective and thoughts on working in the creative industries. We’re joined in this episode by Mediale Chair, Tim Leigh, who also happens to be Stage One’s Sales and Marketing Director.

I hung out with both members of electronic dream pop band AQUILO, Ben Fletcher and Tom Higham, backstage at the Commodore Ballroom right after they walked off stage. They were opening for their friend UK singer-songwriter electronic artist Låpsley. (In fact you can hear Låpsley in the background backstage warming up her singing voice while we chat.) Generally I don't like to do interviews after the band's set because the band is distracted by many other more fun things to do like beer. But Ben and Tom were game to try an interview and half the fun of this hang sesh is all of the crazy interruptions. How do the band react when I pronounce the band's name wrong? How did Tom and Ben meet? What it was like to work with performer and record producer SOHN on some songs? What strange skills do Ben and Tom especially admire about each other? Which AQUILO song got Tom's Dire Straits fan Dad to take notice of his songwriting? What was it like traveling to Iceland to work with producer Ólafur Arnalds (the producer who did the music for the UK version of the Broadchurch television show)? Who interrupts our interview? How many interruptions are there? What are Ben and Tom like after a few beers? You'll have to listen to find out! Tracks played on the radio edit of the show... 1) AQUILO, Aquilo EP (2014) "You There" 2) AQUILO, Silhouettes (2017) "Human" 3) AQUILO, Silhouettes (2017) "I Gave It All" 4) AQUILO, Silhouettes (2017) "Silhouette" NO songs CANCON

This panel discussion featuring Professors Steve Furber & Ross King, Tom Higham from Future Everything and Mark Ewart from Barclays Bank, focuses on the Future of Computing, with questions from local schools around the North West of England.

Tom Higham examines some of the projects the Radiocarbon Accelerator Unit has been involved with over the last few years; from dating the Neanderthal extinction, to identifying the bones of Richard III and Alfred the Great.
