In his new novel, “Twist,” the National Book Award-winning Irish writer Colum McCann tells the story of a journalist deep at sea in more ways then one: A man adrift, he accepts a magazine assignment to write about the crews who maintain and repair the undersea cables that transmit all of the world's information. Naturally, the assignment becomes more treacherous and psychologically fraught than he had anticipated. On this week's episode, McCann tells host Gilbert Cruz how he became interested in the topic of information cables and why the story resonated for him at multiple levels.“Now, I don't know if the novel is prescient in any way. I wanted to talk about repair. And when I got deep into the subject, I did talk about repair — which is, human repair or actual repair of a cable. But I also ended up talking about sabotage, too. And the sabotage of these cables is something that has to be on our minds.” Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

Another day, another Lovecraft! Martin Dunlop joins me to look at Howard Lovecraft and the Undersea Kingdom (2017), an animated film dense with Lovecraftian lore, odd voice decisions and freaky critters. It's a slog with not much Jeff but we survived unscathed! Seymour also makes a stanky appearance.

After a five-year closure, the Frick Collection in New York will reopen to the public on 17 April and this week opened its doors to the press. The Gilded Age mansion, created on Fifth Avenue for the industrialist Henry Clay Frick, has been restored and enhanced by Selldorf Architects, with the executive architect Beyer Blinder Belle. It is the biggest upgrade to the building since it first became a museum in 1935. Ben Luke talks to the architect Annabelle Selldorf. Then, Cabelle Ahn, a contributor to The Art Newspaper who is a specialist in 18th-century art, joins us to review the transformed museum. This episode's Work of the Week is A woman abalone diver wrestling with an octopus (around 1870), a woodblock print by the Japanese artist Taiso Yoshitoshi. Our associate digital editor, Alexander Morrison, discusses the work with James Russell, the curator of a new exhibition, Undersea, at Hastings Contemporary in the UK.The Frick Collection opens on 17 April.Undersea, Hastings Contemporary, 29 March-14 September.Subscription offer: enjoy a three-month digital subscription to The Art Newspaper for just £3/$3/€3.

CEO Sameer Khetarpal promises tech upgrades every six months, integrating AI into store management. The company is also pushing for faster deliveries, with 70% already happening in under 20 minutes and a new guaranteed 20-minute service coming to India's top seven cities. However, dine-in sales remain sluggish as free delivery drives online orders. Meta's Project Waterworth: Building the World's Longest Undersea Cable Meta is advancing Project Waterworth, a 50,000-km undersea cable connecting India, the US, Brazil, South Africa, and more. The aim? Faster internet and AI-driven applications across platforms like Instagram, WhatsApp, and YouTube. Meta is in talks with Airtel, Jio, Tata Communications, and Lightstorm for landing the cable in India, navigating regulatory hurdles. With 95% of global data flowing through subsea cables, this move enhances India's digital backbone while reducing dependence on geopolitically sensitive routes like the Red Sea and South China Sea. Indegene Expands AI-Driven Pharma Solutions in the US & Europe Bangalore-based Indegene is capitalizing on AI in pharma commercialization and regulation, particularly in the US and Europe, where it derives 64% of its revenue. With US pharma firms under pricing pressure, CEO Manish Gupta sees a major opportunity: “Pricing and market access are critical, and our AI-driven solutions can help.” The company has launched Cortex, an AI-powered platform, and is expanding in Europe, with a London center, an Ireland acquisition, and a move into Spain. Since 2010, Indegene has grown from ₹33 crore to ₹2,500 crore and is poised for further scale. Global Investors Shift from US Stocks Amid Tariff Uncertainty Investors are pulling billions from US stocks, redirecting funds to Europe, Asia, and emerging markets due to concerns over US tariff policies. In March alone, European investors withdrew $2.37 billion from US equity ETFs. April 2, Trump's “Liberation Day” tariff plan, threatens new trade tensions, prompting 15 of the world's largest asset managers to reduce US exposure. Goldman Sachs & Barclays have already cut their S&P 500 forecasts for 2025. While some analysts argue US stocks remain attractive, foreign outflows may weaken market performance. Lollapalooza India Booms Despite Industry Challenges The third edition of Lollapalooza India attracted 60,000+ fans with Green Day, Shawn Mendes, and others. While ticket sales hit records, India's live entertainment infrastructure remains weak, lacking dedicated concert venues. “We have to build everything from the ground up,” says Anil Makhija, COO of BookMyShow Live. Diljit Dosanjh's criticism of India's concert ecosystem further highlights these issues. High taxes and ticket resale controversies (e.g., Coldplay's Mumbai show) also pose challenges. Despite this, India's live music market is growing fast, with global artists increasingly making India a tour stop. BookMyShow is pushing for policy changes, better infrastructure, and new festivals like Bandland. “Fans are ready. Artists are ready. Now, the ecosystem needs to catch up,” says Makhija.

Undersea cables form the backbone of global communication, with over 95% of global internet traffic relying on hundreds of fibre-optic cables criss-crossing the globe. But recent incidents such as disruption to cables in the Baltic Sea have highlighted concerns over their security and raised the possibility of ‘grey zone warfare'. The Inquiry examines who owns and runs this vast global network, what happens when things go wrong, and what the future holds for underseas cables. Are they powerful enough to sustain future communications, and what role could quantum technology play in their future?

Countries considered hostile to the West are threatening to cut under sea cables, which carry 95 percent of the world's data. China, Iran and Russia are suspected of threatening to sabotage cables, carrying 95% of the world's data, which makes the network vital to the global economy. Russell Padmore examines how the lines laid on ocean floors are the backbone of the internet, so they need to be protected, but international military cooperation is limited. Produced and presented by Russell Padmore(Image: An undersea cable between Helsinki and Rostock which was laid in 2015. Credit: Getty Images)

When a British submarine surfaced in the North Sea to warn off a Russian spy vessel sailing just 45 miles from the British mainland, a series of shadowy maritime sabotage incidents burst onto the front pages and into public consciousness. In the past year undersea cables vital to European digital infrastructure have been targeted for damage - most notably in the Baltic Sea. With blame difficult to pinpoint, suspicion has fallen on Russia, which Western security services have warned is engaged in ‘hybrid warfare' - utilising sabotage, cyber attacks and other non-military hostile acts - in a bid to weaken NATO countries and destabilise Western democracies.  In the latest episode of This Is Not A Drill, Gavin Esler discusses the threat to European infrastructure from undersea sabotage with Sophia Besch, a senior fellow in the Europe Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. And to assess the wider threat from potential hybrid warfare operations we hear from Ian Bond, deputy director of the Centre for European Reform. • Go to http://proton.me/notadrill to receive a 38% discount on Proton Mail • This episode of This Is Not A Drill is supported by Incogni, the service that keeps your private information safe, protects you from identity theft and keeps your data from being sold.

From ancient myths of sea monsters lurking below to Jules Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, the ocean has long been both a source of fear and fascination. For Captain George Bond, a Navy medical officer in the 1960s, the deep sea was humanity's next frontier. Undersea agriculture, deep sea mining, and human colonies on the ocean floor made up his dream for the future.Today we bring you the story of the U.S. Navy's little-known experiment building homes on the ocean floor.

AP correspondent Naeun Kim reports on patrols in the Baltic Sea being stepped up, in response to suspected undersea cable sabotage.

Edition No76 | 07-01-2025 - An anchor belonging to the oil tanker Eagle S, suspected of being used to damage undersea cables in the Gulf of Finland, has been located and retrieved from the seabed. This follows the seizure by police in Finland of the Russian-linked dark fleet tanker Eagle S. This is the first time a ship suspected of sabotaging undersea infrastructure has been taken into custody by authorities, according to Estonia Prime Minister Kristen Michal. Estonia Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said the damage to undersea infrastructure was not a coincidence. “They have become systematic, and we must consider them an attack on our infrastructure,” he said. The Finnish customs service believes the Eagle S is part of a shadow fleet of ageing tankers being used to evade sanctions on the sale of Russian oil. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's frontline towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- Trucks under Christmas Tree https://donorbox.org/trucks-under-christmas-tree/fundraiser/silicon-curtain The Goal of the Campaign for Silicon Curtain: € 10,000 to purchase 1 truck to save Ukrainian lives. ---------- Here are some interesting points about the seizure of the vessel, made by expert Robin Häggblom on Twitter last week. 1) Finnish Defence Forces involvement seems to have been limited. It was the Finnish Border Guard's flagship that shadowed the tanker and caught it in the act, According to Robin this was largely handled by the ministry of the Interior and Law Enforcement, rather than obvious military forces units. 2) The Police told a reporter they don't plan on contacting the Russian authorities. This was a strong and correct gesture of contempt for Russia and its actions. But Robin notes that it may also mark an end to the process of soft appeasement of Russia known as Finlandization, where the USSR and Russia was given special consideration compared to other states. 3) If the Russians have been foolish enough to use shadow fleet vessels as SIGINT platforms, for monitoring and intelligence operations, then we may expect must closer tracking of their grey fleet by NATO powers, and potentially more interventions. The shadow fleet-concept, notes Robin, rests on the right of innocent passage, while intelligence gathering specifically is mentioned as *not* being part of that under UNCLOS Article 19, 2. If there is reason to suspect innocent passage isn't adhered to, it can up new legal actions, which the Western allies have been loath to adopt until now. 4) The operation is typical for how Finland handles hybrid operations. Everything is done according to the book and within a clear legal framework. But the signalling around this operation appears to be unusually strong, which may be intended as a clear message to Russia. More of a show of force than was necessary may indicate that Finland and other countries' patience with Russia's illegal, aggressive and risky actions does have limits. More on this story in forthcoming episodes with experts Elizabeth Braw and Jerry Hendrix. ---------- NEWS SOURCES: https://yle.fi/a/74-20135216 https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/finland-court-rejects-owners-request-release-oil-tanker-2025-01-03/ https://www.lloydslist.com/LL1151950/Finland-police-seize-Russian-linked-dark-fleet-tanker-Eagle-S-in-cable-cutting-investigation ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ----------

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of Discover Daily, we delve into the latest maritime crisis in the Baltic Sea, where the Estlink 2 power cable connecting Finland and Estonia has suffered significant damage. The investigation centers on the Eagle S tanker, part of Russia's shadow fleet, as NATO and European nations respond with enhanced security measures and cutting-edge underwater surveillance technology to protect critical infrastructure.We then journey to Antarctica to track A23a, the world's largest iceberg, as it embarks on an extraordinary voyage after being grounded for over three decades. This colossal ice formation, larger than Rhode Island, has provided scientists with unprecedented insights into ocean dynamics through its interaction with a fascinating phenomenon known as a Taylor column, which caused the massive iceberg to spin at 15 degrees per day.The episode culminates with groundbreaking research revealing the surprisingly slow processing speed of the human brain - just 10 bits per second - despite receiving billions of bits of sensory input. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of cognitive limitations, decision-making processes, and the future development of artificial intelligence systems that could better mirror human cognitive architecture.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/baltic-undersea-cables-cut-aga-mldvtKRKRYy1_hqiq8rVsAhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/world-s-largest-iceberg-on-the-_JL2daWNTU2Buipo_pFc6whttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/the-human-brain-is-very-slow-YGm.UjyKRW.caXXHnhlb4QPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

The knives come out over information, manufactured evidence and a conspiracy to commit. The Weaver wars heat up. Yanking chains to get back on the scene. A touch of Asperger Syndrome doesn't help. The pitfalls of the genius class. They are trying to drive a wedge between Elon and Trump. The VP's wife has a background. Gov. Bergrum and China go way back. The Matt Gaetz trap. The Greenberg deals. Beto's wife knew about railroads and borders. People are not paying attention to real factual information. There will be war in 2025. It's those influencers on social media again. The Chinese are playing us. The North Dakota reasons for prominence. Orders have been issued to military. Mobilization is happening. Be invested in the story. Art is a vehicle for truth. Everything has a duplicity. There are many facade's surrounding Trump. Fatalism means NCSWC. The New Year's show will be great. The biggest threat is Chinese. It's time to disengage. Less is more now. Focus on communities. A lot of confusion will occur this year. Everyone wants to be at the inauguration. Pay attention and hold information providers accountable. Old news is an operational technique. Undersea cables are targets. MH370 is related. Google was stealing cable coms. In the end, there will be plenty of pain from all the truth bombs revealed.

In this episode, we're joined by Florian Flade, an investigative journalist for Germany's public broadcaster WDR based in Berlin. In this conversation, Florian discusses the activities of Russian research ships that are suspected of espionage. He explains how these ships, while officially labeled as academic vessels, are equipped with advanced technology for intelligence gathering, mainly focusing on critical underwater infrastructure. The conversation delves into the geopolitical implications of these activities, the Russian government's official stance, and the role of Chinese ships in potential sabotage operations. Additionally, the discussion highlights the legal challenges in addressing maritime espionage and the difficulties in investigating incidents at sea. Florian also discusses NATO's evolving strategies in response to Russian spy ships, particularly in the context of the Baltic Sea.
