In the latest episode of Two Friends Talk History, Zofia and Dr Briana King return to our discussion into Classical Receptions studies. This time, we go into some of the heavier subject matter that we felt deserved its own episode.  Briana joins me to unpack the dark and often overlooked threads of sexual violence in ancient history and its modern reinterpretations through case studies from film and television. We discuss ancient precedents for modern cinematic and television representations of sexual violence - made spectacle – in retellings of Roman narratives.We're diving deep into how classical reception shapes public perception—and why that matters.

Grandpa Bill's Grunts & Groans-"Magmatic water" refers to water trapped within or released from magma. This water plays a crucial role in #volcanic activity, #hydrothermal systems, and the formation of certain #mineral deposits.A "narrative form" implies telling the story of this water's journey, its effects, and its historical significance.The Hidden Journey: A Narrative of Magmatic WaterFrom Earth's Depths: The Epic Tale of Magmatic WaterMagmatic Water: A Geological Story of Fire and FluidThe Water Within: Unveiling the History of Magmatic HydrologyVolcanic Waters: A Deep Earth NarrativeGeneral Geology:#geology,#earthscience,#volcanoes,#hydrology,#geoscience,Specific Terms:#magmaticwater,#magma,#hydrothermalsystems,#volcanichydrology,#mineralformation,Narrative/Storytelling:#earthstory,#geologicalnarrative,#sciencecommunication,#deepEarth,Visual/Media:#geologyphotography,#sciencevideos,#earthvisuals,Memory Palace Location: Imagine a grand, underwater palace made of shimmering obsidian, deep within the ocean trenches. This is Neptune's domain.Characters and Objects:Neptune: The central figure, holding his trident, representing the power and pressure of the deep sea.Vesica, the Bubble Sprite: A tiny, shimmering creature made of trapped gas bubbles, representing vesiculation. She flits around Neptune, sometimes multiplying, sometimes bursting.Viscos, the Slime Serpent: A large, sluggish serpent made of thick, sticky magma, representing magma viscosity. He moves slowly and traps Vesicas bubbles.Hydro, the Steam Kraken: A powerful kraken that constantly emits jets of steam and boiling water, representing hydrothermal interactions. He clashes with Viscos, creating explosive bursts.The Mnemonic Story (Walking Through the Palace):Entrance: You enter Neptune's palace. He stands at the entrance, his trident glowing. Vesica, the Bubble Sprite, is dancing around him, showing the initial formation of gas bubbles (vesiculation).The Viscous Chamber: You move into a chamber where Viscos, the Slime Serpent, lies coiled. Vesica's bubbles get trapped in his thick, sticky body (high viscosity), slowing her down. In some areas, her bubbles build up, creating bulges in Viscos's body.The Hydrothermal Cauldron: You enter a cavern filled with boiling water and steam. Hydro, the Steam Kraken, is thrashing about, releasing jets of hot water. He clashes with Viscos, causing explosive bursts of steam and magma (hydrothermal interactions). Some of the bubbles from vesica are released in these explosions.The Eruption Gallery: You reach a gallery where you see different underwater volcanic eruption styles. Some are gentle lava flows (low viscosity, easy bubble escape), others are explosive bursts of steam and ash (high viscosity, trapped bubbles, hydrothermal interactions). Neptune points his trident, showing how these elements combine.Vesiculation (Vesica): The initial formation of gas bubbles.Magma Viscosity (Viscos): The thickness of magma, affecting bubble movement.Hydrothermal Interactions (Hydro): The interaction of magma with seawater, leading to steam and explosions.Neptune: The controlling force, representing the deep-sea environment and the diverse eruption styles.

It's that time of year when Walter Afanasieff takes over the charts. Walter is the writer and producer of “All I Want for Christmas Is You”—the biggest Christmas song of all time—and he also produced “My Heart Will Go On.” But that's just the tip of the iceberg. From writing and producing with Mariah Carey to working with Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, and Barbra Streisand, Walter has been behind some of the most unforgettable songs in music history.He co-wrote dozens of hits with Mariah Carey, including “Hero” and “One Sweet Day”—the record-breaking duet with Boyz II Men that held the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for 16 weeks. And let's not forget “My Heart Will Go On”—yes, the Titanic theme with Celine Dion—which earned him a GRAMMY for Record of the Year. Walter also won the Producer of the Year GRAMMY in 2000.This year, he's nominated for Best Song Written for Visual Media for his song "Love Will Survive" with Barbra Streisand from the miniseries The Tattooist of Auschwitz. Walter co-wrote the piece with Hans Zimmer, Charlie Midnight, and Kara Talve, and produced it alongside Peter Asher.In this episode, we dig into Walter's incredible journey through the music world. From his early days working with Narada Michael Walden (fun fact: Walter played synths on “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”) to collaborating with some of the biggest voices in history, Walter is an absolute legend. He's also a dear friend, and I'm so excited to share our conversation with you today. Let's go!

A career in science communication wasn't exactly what our guest, Jasmine Corbett, expected when she grew up, but now she is the Media and Communications Manager at the Manta Trust living out her dream to help share their work with the world.  In this episode of the Beyond Jaws podcast, co-hosts Andrew Lewin and Dave Ebert interview Jasmine Corbett, the Media and Communications Manager for the Manta Trust. Jasmine shares her unique journey into the field of science communication, highlighting her passion for underwater photography and marine biology. Jasmine grew up in a creative family, initially envisioning a career in traditional photography. However, after discovering scuba diving during a gap year in Thailand, she shifted her focus to marine and natural history photography. She pursued a degree in Marine and Natural History Photography at Falmouth University, where she learned to combine her artistic skills with a passion for marine conservation. Her career began with various roles in marine conservation, including working as a dive instructor and managing marine conservation projects in the Maldives. During her time in Baa Atoll, she had a transformative experience witnessing manta rays, which deepened her commitment to their conservation. Jasmine's connection with the Manta Trust began while working as a marine biologist for Reefscapers, where she collaborated with the Manta Trust on research projects. Her photography and videography skills caught the attention of the Manta Trust's founder, leading to her current role in media and communications. In this position, she is responsible for creating compelling visual content that raises awareness about manta ray conservation and engages the public. Throughout the episode, Jasmine emphasizes the importance of visual media in science communication, noting that it can transcend language and academic barriers. She discusses the challenges of conveying complex scientific information in an accessible way, particularly when addressing serious issues like the threats faced by manta rays. Jasmine's approach involves crafting narratives that include a beginning, middle, and end, focusing on the context, challenges, and solutions to inspire action and hope among audiences. Overall, Jasmine's career exemplifies the integration of creative passions with scientific communication, showcasing how visual storytelling can effectively promote conservation efforts and engage diverse audiences.

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.In this episode of "Discover Daily," we begin with significant leadership changes at OpenAI and Stability AI. Mira Murati, Chief Technology Officer at OpenAI, has announced her departure, leaving a void in the company's technical leadership and raising questions about the continuity of ongoing projects. Meanwhile, acclaimed filmmaker James Cameron has joined the board of directors at Stability AI, signaling a shift in his stance on AI in filmmaking and potentially revolutionizing visual media creation.We also dive deep into an incredible archaeological breakthrough, where researchers from Yamagata University and IBM have used AI to uncover over 300 new geoglyphs in Peru's Nazca desert. This discovery nearly doubles the number of known designs and sheds new light on the ancient Nazca civilization's artistic practices and cultural significance. The AI-assisted method proved to be 20 times faster than human analysis, with the system being particularly effective at identifying smaller, more intricate figures. The success of AI in uncovering geoglyphs in the Nazca desert has implications for archaeological research worldwide. Similar techniques could potentially be applied in other regions known for ancient land art, such as the southwestern United States, Australian Outback, and Sahara Desert. As AI technologies continue to evolve, they promise to accelerate the pace of archaeological discoveries, deepen our understanding of ancient civilizations, and provide new ways to preserve and share our cultural heritage.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/mira-murati-departs-openai-HKHYnPjSQH.htsRvd58FuQhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/james-cameron-joins-stability-bB6rRHn7RsO_Thp9Mncrkwhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/ai-finds-new-nazca-lines-QONt2ZsoRPWmE51bAwM4.gPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

When drummer Antonio Sanchez released his album Bad Hombre back in 2017, he was responding to a few events that took place in his world at the same time.  On a political level, the music was a response to the racism of the Trump campaign against Mexicans. In fact the title of the record Bad Hombre seemed to be an answer to Trump's assertion that a wall needed to be built at the US Mexican border in order to get the “bad hombres” out of the US.  An immigrant from Mexico himself, Sanchez reappropriated the phrase. Itseemed, in fact, to be a perfect fit for him because not only did it work as a form of resistance - by using the term he made his feelings clear without having to say too much about it - but it also borrowed from the jazz vernacular. You know, when musicians really respect someone, they will often refer to them as “bad”. And in that context, Antonio Sanchez is definitely a bad hombre. Sanchez moved to the US in his early 20s from his native Mexico to go to music school. One of his first teachers, the Panamanian born Danilo Perez, was a supporter, and their work together was one of the early launchpads for Antonio.  While he was playing with Danilo, the guitarist Pat Metheny heard him, and that led to a musical relationship that has been at the center of his life for 20 years. Sanchez went on to become one of the most sought-after drummers on the international jazz scene. Has won four Grammys, and has been named Modern Drummer's "Jazz Drummer of the Year” three times, and appeared on the covers of all the big jazz magazines.  From early on he thought about drumming, and particularly soloing, as a form of storytelling. He says “I'm a sucker for a good story.” So it was only a matter of time before some great storyteller would find a way to use Antonio Sanchez's drums to help tell a story. And that was exactly what happened when the Mexican film director Alejandro González Iñárritu asked Antonio to do an all drum score for his film Birdman in 2014.  The film went on to win three academy awards and the score earned Antonio awards (including a Grammy for Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media) and nominations at the Golden Globe and BAFTA Awards. As significant as the awards and accolades were, maybe more significant was that the sound of Antonio's drumming truly entered the zeitgeist after Birdman. And though he hadn't planned for it to turn out that way, he realized that the level of expectation, curiosity, and even pressure on him to follow up that success with something equally resonant had risen.  So when in 2017 Antonio went into his newly built home studio to record Bad Hombre, he had a lot of psychic energy stored up and ready to use. He made an entirely instrumental solo record, he played all the instruments and did what has become his trademark production work of mixing drones, samples, programming and live drumming. In fact the only collaborator on the record was his nonagenarian grandfather, the Mexican actor Ignacio López Tarso who appears on the first track.  Five years, one pandemic, a few political cycles, and a handful of other projects later, he's back this year with Shift: Bad Hombre Vol. II. This time the list of collaborators is a bit longer.  Somewhere in the dense fog of the pandemic, Sanchez decided to ask some of his favorite singers and songwriters — for material he could deconstruct and reimagine. The result sees Dave Matthews & Pat Metheny, Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross, Meshell Ndegeocello, Lila Downs, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Kimbra, Ana Tijoux, Becca Stevens, Silvana Estrada, MARO, Thana Alexa (who is his wife)  & SONICA sitting in on their own tunes — or ideas co written by Sánchez. The idea of “shifting” might not only apply to the songs on Bad Hombre Vol. II, but also to a change in Antonio's approach - In the first Bad Hombre release, he was extremely political. Over the years, his outrage and fury with Trump and the turmoil at the US–Mexican border muted – and Sánchez himself “shifted” how he thinks about what he does, and where he wants to go next.  We talked recently about that search, the same one that started back in Mexico when he was a competitive gymnast, classical pianist and aspiring rock drummer and brought him all the way to where he is today, the Bad Hombre. www.third-story.com www.patreon.com/thirdstorypodcast https://www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

Born to a film-making family, Leopoldo Torre Nilsson was the first Argentine film director to be critically acclaimed outside the country. Before he died in 1978 from cancer, aged 54, Torre Nilsson worked alongside his wife Beatriz Guido, a published author, on many of the scripts which he turned into successful films. One of them, Martín Fierro (1968), is about the main character of Argentina's national poem.
