Hosts Giulia Donatello and Lee-Sean Huang welcome Jarrett Fuller, a designer, writer, educator, editor, and podcaster. He is an assistant professor and director of undergraduate programs in Graphic & Experience Design at North Carolina State University, director of the design studio twenty-six, and host of Scratching the Surface. He's edited or co-edited four books, and his writing has appeared in Fast Company, The Architect's Newspaper, Eye Magazine, and Design Observer. His work has won awards from Communication Arts and The Type Directors Club, and he was previously an editor at Eye on Design and a designer at Facebook, Warby Parker, and The Whitney Museum of American Art.Drawing from his new book, Graphic Designers After Graphic Design: Designer as Publisher, Researcher, Change Maker, Performer, Artist (Princeton Architectural Press), Jarrett explains why graphic design is far from dead. They explore how the field's lack of strict boundaries is its superpower, letting millennial and Gen Z designers expand into publishing, research, activism, performance, and fine art.
In This Episode* Graphic designers persist. Jarrett contrasts a future where design persists without human designers with one where designers thrive by reclaiming their practice beyond commercial silos.* The "superpower" of a blurry discipline. Unlike architecture or industrial design, graphic design has always resisted definition. Jarrett argues that this is what allows the discipline to keep expanding and adapting to new cultural moments.* Designer as publisher. Jarrett discusses how designers move beyond shaping the container for someone else's text and become cultural producers when they control the content and make it public.* Social change and activism. Revisiting manifestos like First Things First, Jarrett shows how making complex political ideas visual and legible remains a fundamental form of social action.* Performance, unscripted risks, and rapid prototyping. Drawing on his interview with Silvio Lorusso, Jarrett and Lee-Sean compare design research and public presentations to stand-up and improv, favoring risk, live feedback, and mistakes over slick corporate TED Talks.* Resisting the "AI sameness trap." Reflecting on his recent Fast Company essay, Jarrett argues designers fear AI only because they've been designing for lowest-common-denominator sameness. He calls for radical experimentation and cultural difference.* Going back to the roots (graphe). Jarrett revisits the Greek root of "graphic," reminding us that graphic design is medium-agnostic and encompasses studying, writing, drawing, and giving shape to the world.* Flipping design education. Jarrett proposes redesigning design curricula to start with history, ethics, and critical theory, saving tools and software for last.

Goed onderwijs ontstaat niet alleen in het klaslokaal. Natuurlijk doet de kwaliteit van de leraar ertoe, maar ook de organisatie daaromheen bepaalt in belangrijke mate wat leraren en leerlingen kunnen bereiken. Denk aan de kwaliteit van leiderschap, de samenwerking binnen teams, ruimte voor professionele ontwikkeling en de manier waarop een school gezamenlijke ambities formuleert en bewaakt. Juist wanneer scholen hun onderwijs duurzaam willen verbeteren, is het daarom relevant om niet alleen te kijken naar individuele professionals of afzonderlijke lessen, maar naar het functioneren van de school als geheel. Welke omstandigheden helpen leraren om goed onderwijs te geven, van elkaar te leren en samen verantwoordelijkheid te nemen voor de ontwikkeling van alle leerlingen? André de Waal, academic director van het HPO Center, Ed Ilgen, onderwijsadviseur en bestuurssecretaris bij Stichting Eem-Vallei Educatief en Marjolein Bos, regiodirecteur bij Stichting Viertaal zijn op onderzoek gegaan om te bepalen wat scholen kunnen leren van het gedachtegoed rond High Performance Organizations. Daarbij gaat hoog presteren nadrukkelijk niet over voortdurend de beste moeten zijn. Het draait om een organisatie die mensen in staat stelt zich te ontwikkelen en gezamenlijk steeds beter onderwijs te realiseren. In deze podcast wordt de expliciete verbinding met de dagelijkse onderwijspraktijk gemaakt. Zo vraagt dit om hoge ambities, maar ook om professionele samenwerking, een sterke interne organisatie en leiderschap dat ontwikkeling mogelijk maakt. Kwaliteit is daarmee niet alleen de verantwoordelijkheid van de individuele leraar. Het wordt een gezamenlijk vraagstuk: wat willen we voor leerlingen bereiken, welke omstandigheden zijn daarvoor nodig en hoe kunnen we als organisatie iedere dag een beetje beter worden?

Hva skjer når mennesker slutter å tenke selv? Og hvordan kan intelligente og tilsynelatende vanlige mennesker bli en del av systemer som gjør grusomme ting? Grethe Bøe-Waal er tilbake i «Snakk med Silje». Hun er forfatter og filmregissør med en master i filosofi. Denne gangen starter vi en serie på seks episoder om en av det 20. århundrets mest betydningsfulle og fascinerende tenkere: Hannah Arendt. I første episode blir vi kjent med mennesket Hannah Arendt. Hun vokste opp som jødisk kvinne i et Europa i voldsom endring, med en sterk og politisk engasjert mor og en far som langsomt forsvant inn i alvorlig sykdom. Allerede som ung møtte hun antisemittisme og erfarte hvordan andre mennesker kunne påtvinge henne en identitet hun ikke først og fremst hadde valgt selv. Senere studerte hun filosofi og innledet et forhold til professoren og filosofen Martin Heidegger. Han var hennes store intellektuelle forbilde, men skulle senere knytte seg til nazismen. Forholdet mellom Arendt og Heidegger ble komplisert og skulle følge henne resten av livet. Grethe mener vi allerede i den unge Arendt kan se spirene til spørsmålene som senere skulle gjøre henne berømt: Hva er ondskap? Hva skjer når vi slutter å tenke selv? Hva er forskjellen mellom å være intellektuelt briljant og å handle moralsk? Og hvilket ansvar har hvert enkelt menneske når systemet rundt oss beveger seg i feil retning? Vi snakker også om identitet, feminisme, Rosa Luxemburg, Immanuel Kant, kjærlighet, fremmedgjøring, det å stå opp for seg selv og Arendts senere berømte begrep «ondskapens banalitet». For kanskje er Hannah Arendt særlig interessant nettopp i brytningstider. Når gamle sannheter utfordres, maktsentre forskyves og samfunnet polariseres, blir spørsmålet om vår egen evne og vilje til å tenke selv desto viktigere. Dette er første episode i en serie på seks samtaler med Grete Bøe om Hannah Arendt, hennes liv og ideer.

What's Really Going On Inside Animals' Heads?

The Pulse

Do animals feel love, anger, or empathy? Researchers have long dismissed such ideas as anthropomorphism, arguing that attributing human emotions to animals was unscientific.But as we learn more about animal sentience, that's starting to change — and, in the process, we're learning more than ever about the complex inner lives of animals, including why we may be more alike than we once thought.On this encore episode, we explore what researchers have discovered about what's really going on inside other species' heads. We talk with a primatologist about why she believes baboons and other animals possess a theory of mind; investigate whether crabs, lobsters, and shrimp are capable of experiencing pain; and hear about one beagle's journey from lab subject to pet. Host Maiken Scott and reporter Alan Yu visit the Chamounix Equestrian Center in Philadelphia to test an app that claims to detect pain in horses. When primatologist Christine Webb was in college, she was taught that it was “unscientific” to investigate animal emotions — but that attitude has started to change. We talk with Webb about what's causing that shift, what she learned from her mentor, the famed primatologist Frans de Waal, and the challenges involved with stepping outside our human biases to understand the inner lives of animals. Webb is an assistant professor in the Department of Environmental Studies at New York University, and her new book is “The Arrogant Ape: The Myth of Human Exceptionalism and Why it Matters.” Reporter Sophia Schmidt pays a visit to the Elmwood Park Zoo in Norristown, Pennsylvania to meet an unlikely pair of besties: Hunter, the red-tailed hawk, and Stan, the turkey vulture. We hear about why Hunter and Stan's relationship is so rare, how they became friends (and, sometimes, more than friends), and what biological factors could be driving their behavior. It's easy enough to believe that animals like cats and dogs have feelings — but what about less cuddly creatures, like crabs, lobsters, and shrimp? Pulse reporter Liz Tung talks with researchers who've been investigating the question of sentience in decapod crustaceans, and whether or not they're capable of feeling pain. We talk with journalist Melanie Kaplan about her investigation into the world of animal research, spurred by her adoption of Hammy — a beagle who spent the first four years of his life in a lab. Her book is, “Lab Dog: A Beagle and His Human Investigate the Surprising World of Animal Research.”

This week on The Horn, Alan speaks with Alex de Waal and Abdul Mohammed, former senior officials for the African Union's mediation team, on how the split between Sudan and South Sudan fifteen years ago led to two failed states, the high-level diplomacy at the time to prevent all-out war, and whether such mediation is still possible today. In this episode of The Horn, Alan is joined again by Abdul Mohammed and Alex de Waal, who worked together for the African Union High-Level Implementation Panel (AUHIP) for Sudan and South Sudan, to talk about the inside diplomacy surrounding the separation of Sudan and South Sudan, how those dramatic events led to the tragedies in both countries today, and the state of mediation in today's fragmented world. De Waal is co-author of a new book The Sudans that tells the account of the African Union's major mediation initiative under President Thabo Mbeki tasked with helping mediate Sudan's split. Alan, Abdul and Alex discuss some of the untold history of that period, why negotiations ultimately failed to produce two viable states, and whether such coordinated high-level diplomacy is still possible in today's fragmented regional geopolitics.

Duizenden studenten hebben zich de afgelopen weken aangemeld bij een studentenvereniging en dus is het weer tijd voor de ontgroening. Maar zijn kruipen door de modder, liters alcohol drinken en nachtenlang liedjes uit het hoofd leren nog wel van deze tijd? En hoe kijken christelijke studentenverenigingen eigenlijk naar ontgroeningen? We spreken erover met Chiel Burger van Ichtus Rotterdam, Willem de Waal van C.S.F.R. Utrecht en Barend Last, schrijver van De kunst van het ontgroenen.

Teks: Hand 2:37-47.Hoe lyk dissipelskap? Dissipelskap beteken om `n leerling en `n volgeling van Jesus te wees en te bly. In Handelinge 2:37 – 47 sien ons iets van hoe dit lyk om Jesus te volg. Dit is soos `n baba-foto van die kerk. Die konteks is na die uitstorting van die Heilige Gees en na Petrus se preek op Pinkster – vra die mense wat moet hulle doen? Dit is die regte vraag om te kan groei in ons verhouding met die Here. Ook ons moet vra wat kan óns doen in ons reaksie op die werk van God se Woord en die werk van God se Gees. In hierdie preek gaan ons kyk na 7 aspekte van dissipelskap en die sewende aspek gaan oor hoe om seker te maak dat ons dissipelskap gesond kan bly.

This is the 70th year of Sudanese independence, but there is little to celebrate and much to lament as the country continues to tear itself apart. Three major civil wars have consumed 43 years of Sudan's seven decades, not counting the many years of violence and genocide in Darfur from 2003. The current war has entered its fourth year with no prospect of peace. Recent fighting has drawn the world's attention to the central Sudanese city of El Obeid, where thousands of desperate civilians are sheltering from a feared onslaught by the genocidal Rapid Support Forces. Alex de Waal returns to the podcast to discuss the driving forces behind the violence and why the world is incapable or unwilling to stop it. Alex de Waal is the Executive Director of the World Peace Foundation and one of the foremost experts on Sudan and the Horn of Africa.

In a world racing toward smarter machines, empathy speakers and authors Rob Volpe and Maria Ross get curious in this limited subseries about what only humans can feel, do, and be — and why that's our greatest competitive advantage. Enjoy this limited subseries here on The Empathy Edge.Morality, Conscience, Storytelling & CommunityWhere does our sense of right and wrong actually come from? Maria and Rob trace the roots of human morality across three sources: evolutionary wiring that hardwired empathy for group survival, cultural transmission passed down through family and community, and the personal reflection that continues to shape our ethics well into adulthood. They look to Frans de Waal's research on chimps and bonobos, and to highly social species like wolves, crows, and honeybees, who enforce unwritten norms on the group. But a key distinction: animals register unfairness, while humans ruminate in moral anguish over it.By the end of the conversation, they find themselves less certain than when they started about whether humanity could ever agree on even three to five truly universal moral principles, and invite their listeners to contact us with their opinions.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com and search by episode title."That's where our empathy work lies - how do you bridge that gap between your different potentially moral or ethical codes?" — Maria Ross Episode References: Frans de Waal on morality in primates, Primates and Philosophers Jonathan Haidt, The Righteous Mind: righteousmind.comPeter Singer, The Expanding CircleColler Doolittle Prize for interspecies communication: https://coller-dolittle-24.sites.tau.ac.il/ The Ezra Klein Show: Chris Rufo Thinks the Right Can Control This.

In a world racing toward smarter machines, empathy speakers and authors Rob Volpe and Maria Ross get curious in this limited subseries about what only humans can feel, do, and be — and why that's our greatest competitive advantage. Enjoy this limited subseries here on The Empathy Edge.Is being vulnerable and admitting mistakes part of being human? Antonio Damasio is a professor at USC, not Vanderbilt. We apologize for any confusion.Emotion, Empathy, Vulnerability & LoveHumans feel, and we feel in ways that are layered, contradictory, and impossible to fully optimize away. Today, Maria Ross and Rob Volpe explore the full emotional range: why grief and joy aren't opposites, why vulnerability is the prerequisite for genuine connection, and why desire, longing, and love remain stubbornly resistant to logic. They discuss the Feelings Wheel as a lens for emotional nuance, consider what happens when empathy erodes entirely, and finally, they discuss the question of empathy and AI: it can simulate empathy through language, but emotion, at its deepest level, is not information processing. Listen in as they discuss feeling everything - for that is how we experience life and connect with others.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com and search by episode title."I think the allure of AI for some people is that ‘I'm going to get a very objective, pragmatic, data-driven answer, devoid of emotion.'

She's the author of 11 novels, including The Missing Pages, which was published last fall. We were delighted that she agreed to come on the show and speak to us about this book, although we did sneak in a question about The Velvet Hours published in 2016, which our book club read many years ago. It is about a real Paris courtesan in the Belle Epoque who in her later years as World War II approaches shares her life story with her granddaughter.   The Missing Pages is a historical fiction novel that is about a man's love of books, but it is also a ghost tale, a romance, and a story of the Titanic all rolled into one. Richman is known for making the reader feel the sumptuous details of the world she is writing about, and she does it again in this book.   Our book rec segment of the show is all about musicians, but we're not talking solely about musician memoirs, although we do have one of those. We've got a children's nonfiction book about a Ukrainian pianist who performed for Nazsis, a National Book Award winner, a mystery about a stolen violin, a story about a wedding singer whose own relationship is on the rocks, and a coming of age story set in the 1970s that includes a rock star.    Books Mentioned in This Episode: 1- The Missing Pages by Alyson Richman  2- The Velvet Hours by Alyson Richman  3- The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray  4- All the Beauty in the World by Patrick Bringley  5- Buckeye by Patrick Ryan  6- The Hare with the Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal  7- Underlake by Erin L.

En este vídeo de AMADAG TV exploramos cómo el caso de Punch conecta con una verdad incómoda sobre el ser humano: nadie aprende a sostenerse solo si antes no ha sido sostenido. Analizamos por qué el contacto, la cercanía y la sensación de protección no son un lujo emocional, sino una necesidad básica del sistema nervioso. Desde los experimentos de Harry Harlow hasta la teoría del apego, veremos por qué un simple objeto puede convertirse en un regulador emocional cuando el mundo se vuelve demasiado hostil. También reflexionamos sobre algo muy actual: vivimos hiperconectados, pero muchas veces profundamente solos. Tenemos pantallas, notificaciones, mensajes y estímulos constantes, pero cada vez más personas sienten que no pertenecen, que no encuentran un lugar seguro o que viven emocionalmente abrazadas a sus propias “felpas”: rutinas, móviles, series, vínculos ambiguos o refugios que calman… pero no siempre reparan. Este vídeo te ayudará a entender por qué la exclusión social duele tanto, por qué la empatía hacia Punch fue tan intensa y qué nos revela esta historia sobre nuestra propia ansiedad, nuestras relaciones y nuestra forma de buscar consuelo. Porque la resiliencia no consiste en no necesitar nada, sino en encontrar un apoyo cuando el mundo aprieta, usarlo sin vergüenza y, cuando llega el momento, volver a acercarse a los demás. Si alguna vez has sentido soledad, miedo al rechazo, necesidad de refugiarte en algo para poder seguir o la sensación de estar sobreviviendo más que viviendo, este vídeo es para ti. Y si quieres comprender de verdad cómo funciona la ansiedad, el apego, el sistema nervioso y la manera en que construimos seguridad emocional, te invitamos a dar un paso más.

Beyond Anthropomorphism: The Science of Animal Emotions

Do animals feel love, anger, or empathy? Researchers have long dismissed such ideas as anthropomorphism, arguing that attributing human emotions to animals was unscientific.But as we learn more about animal sentience, that's starting to change — and, in the process, we're learning more than ever about the complex inner lives of animals, including why we may be more alike than we once thought.On this episode, we explore what researchers have discovered about what's really going on inside other species' heads. We talk with a primatologist about why she believes baboons and other animals possess a theory of mind; investigate whether crabs, lobsters, and shrimp are capable of experiencing pain; and hear about one beagle's journey from lab subject to pet. Host Maiken Scott and reporter Alan Yu visit  the Chamounix Equestrian Center in Philadelphia to test an app that claims to detect pain in horses. When primatologist Christine Webb was in college, she was taught that it was "unscientific" to investigate animal emotions — but that attitude has started to change. We talk with Webb about what's causing that shift, what she learned from her mentor, the famed primatologist Frans de Waal, and the challenges involved with stepping outside our human biases to understand the inner lives of animals. Webb is an assistant professor in the Department of Environmental Studies at New York University, and her new book is “The Arrogant Ape: The Myth of Human Exceptionalism and Why it Matters.” Reporter Sophia Schmidt pays a visit to the Elmwood Park Zoo in Norristown, Pennsylvania to meet an unlikely pair of besties: Hunter, the red-tailed hawk, and Stan, the turkey vulture. We hear about why Hunter and Stan's relationship is so rare, how they became friends (and, sometimes, more than friends), and what biological factors could be driving their behavior. It's easy enough to believe that animals like cats and dogs have feelings — but what about less cuddly creatures, like crabs, lobsters, and shrimp? Pulse reporter Liz Tung talks with researchers who've been investigating the question of sentience in decapod crustaceans, and whether or not they're capable of feeling pain. We talk with journalist Melanie Kaplan about her investigation into the world of animal research, spurred by her adoption of Hammy — a beagle who spent the first four years of his life in a lab. Her book is, “Lab Dog: A Beagle and His Human Investigate the Surprising World of Animal Research.”

Jonathan Leaf is a playwright, screenwriter, author and journalist, who's won a slew of awards, has been compared to Saul Bellow for his “literacy and seriousness,” has written a half-dozen books, and also written for The New Yorker, The New York Post, The New York Daily News, The American, National Review, The New Partisan, The New York Press, The Weekly Standard and The New York Sun.His latest book, The Primate Myth, upends the common knowledge that humans are a subspecies of ape. Primatologists Jane Goodall and Frans de Waal were completely wrong. If anything, we are a subspecies of dog. Modern technology proves it, and, by giving us an accurate portrait of human nature, explains our penchant for sports, fashion, war, altruism, financial bubbles, suicide and homosexuality, among many other things.

The late world-renowned primatologist Professor Frans de Waal (1948-2024) explores the nature of sex and gender among our cousins the apes, and how gender diversity is a common and pervasive potential on nature's masculine-feminine continuum. In the quest to overcome human gender inequality, he suggests that our focus needs to be on the inequality. Featuring The late Frans B. M. de Waal, Ph.D., was a Dutch/American biologist and primatologist widely renowned for his work on the behavior and social intelligence of primates. C. H. Candler Professor Emeritus at Emory University, de Waal was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and was declared one of The Worlds' 100 Most Influential People Today by Time magazine in 2007.

New @TalkArt podcast episode! We meet legendary artist, potter and author @EdmunddeWaal at his studio in South London!!We explore more than 40 years of making pots, and learn about the first major exhibition of acclaimed Danish ceramicist Axel Salto (1889 – 1961), considered one of the greatest masters of 20th-century ceramic art. This epic new show curated by #EdmunddeWaal (b.1964, Nottingham) is now open at the Hepworth Wakefield, including a major new installation by de Waal reflecting on Salto's enduring influence.Salto was a radical polymathic figure who crossed boundaries from one discipline to another, producing an extraordinary body of ceramic work alongside paintings, wood- cuts, drawings, book illustration and textiles. Salto is internationally renowned for his highly individual and expressive stoneware inspired by organic forms, characterised by budding, sprouting and fluted surface textures that appear to ripple and burst with life.In his own visual art and literary works, Edmund de Waal uses objects as vehicles for human narrative, emotion, and history. His installations of handmade porcelain vessels, often contained in minimalist structures, investigate themes of diaspora, memory, and materiality.De Waal's sculptural practice, writing, and art historical research are deeply intertwined, as he works across mediums and collaborates with museums, poets, performers, musicians, and other visual artists, both living and deceased. Much of de Waal's work is concerned with collecting and collections—how objects are kept together, lost, stolen, or dispersed. His ceramics and writing expand upon conceptual and physical dialogues among minimalism, architecture, and sound, imbuing them with a sense of quiet calm. Manifest across de Waal's practice is a distinct aesthetic philosophy that puts the hand, the sense of touch, and thus the human above all else. His work is about connecting people by reviving and telling stories that matter.Playing with Fire: Edmund de Waal and Axel Salto is now open and runs until 4th May 2026 at Hepworth Wakefield.Follow @EdmundDeWaal and @HepworthWakefield on Instagram.
