For centuries, the Indian Ocean has been a vast crossroads of cultures, goods, and ideas - but what role did Islam play in weaving this intricate web of connections?  Arab, Berber, Persian and Indian merchants spread Islam from the seventh century onwards across the vast geographic areas of the Sahara and the Indian Ocean. Muslims in turn fostered diasporas, built architectural marvels, and circulated ideas, from the spice routes of Gujarat to the Swahili coast of Zanzibar. This episode unravels the “longue durée” of Islam's influence, tracing how faith, trade, and culture transformed global interactions and local identities across continents.   Join Walid Ghali and Farouk Topan from the Aga Khan University's Institute for the Study of Muslim Civilisations, and Daren Ray, from Brigham Young University as we challenge conventional narratives and spotlight the centrality of Muslim cultures in understanding the Indian Ocean's interconnected past - and its enduring legacy today.

Science and the Sea podcast

A rare species of sponge found in the Red Sea and Indian Ocean has a rare distinction: It has levels of a metal that are thousands of times higher than ever seen in any other organism. And most of that metal is stored away by a type of bacteria that lives inside the sponge.Sponges are filter feeders—they draw in water, filter out food and other solid bits, then shoot the water and solid particles back into the sea. Some contaminants can lodge inside them. Some studies have found high levels of arsenic, barium, and other toxic substances.A more recent study looked at the species called Theonella conica. It's found down the eastern coast of Africa. Up to 40 percent of its body weight consists of bacteria and other microscopic organisms, many of which have a symbiotic relationship with the sponge.Over two decades, researchers collected specimens from Zanzibar, off the southeastern African coast, and the Gulf of Aqaba, at the northern tip of the Red Sea.When they analyzed the sponges, the scientists found extremely high levels of molybdenum. The metal is important for the metabolism of people and other animals, but only at low levels. At high levels it's toxic. So the metal may help protect the sponges from predators.The element was concentrated in one of the species of bacteria inside the sponge. It changes the material into a harmless mineral, which is flushed back into the water—keeping the sponge safe from both predators and the toxic element.

  Uddrag af dagbogen til Oberst C. K. I. Christensen, Fellow ved Royal Society for Vildfarne Filmstudier, nedskrevet under hans ulyksalige ekspedition til det Afrikanske kontinent, sommeren 1898. Genfundet i maven paa en udstoppet hyæne paa Nationalmuseet i Nairobi. Side 2 - Landgang med tweed og tvivl Stormen fik bølgerne til at skrige som smaa børn, og havet bar lugten af forliste drømme. Vores dampskib blev slynget op paa Afrikas kyst som en døddrukken flodhest. Jeg vadede i land iført mit fineste tweed og et blik, der signalerede staalsat inkompetence. Ingen modtog mig. Kun en død ged og et skilt: “VELKOMMEN TIL AFRIKA – VI ANBEFALER HAT OG NERVEMEDICIN.”     Første observation: Afrika er uforholdsmæssigt varmt, uigennemskueligt og anerkender mestendels ikke gemen bordskik. Jeg udpegede derfor straks kontinentet som fjendtligt. Fire dage senere, et sted syd for Khartoum, var min hest død af varme og anger. Min sidste daase-pølse var fortæret, og kortet jeg havde købt i Antwerpen viste sig muligvis at være bagsiden af en vinmenu fra Holland-Amerika-linjen. Mit kompas snurrede som en gal tepotte. Jeg begyndte at gaa.     Side 16 - Under paraventen: En gentleman bekender sin angst Paa ottendedagen, et sted mellem et udtørret flodleje og min sidste pibe Capstan Navy Cut, hørte jeg stemmer. Ikke inde i hovedet denne gang – virkelige stemmer. Jeg fandt ham i skyggen af et akacietræ. Han kaldte sig Sonny, og tilbød mig et stykke tørret kød, som jeg senere opdagede var hans dagbog. Han førte mig til en teltlejr, hvor man var i færd med at bygge en jernbane. Jeg bemærkede straks fraværet af enhver form for sikkerhedsprotokol, samt det faktum at lejren havde et foruroligende misforhold mellem levende og døde arbejdere. Brølet kom ved skumring. To skabninger. Løver, ja, men med manér som mordere. De bevægede sig lydløst mellem teltene. Jeg naaede akkurat at høre en jæger, med krop som en whiskyflaske og en stemme af kogt læder, sige: “‘The Ghost and the Darkness' (1996).” Jeg flygtede gennem lejren, der stank af imperiel arrogance og løvepis, og gemte mig under en dynge kongolesiske paraventer, der var malet med scener fra et bedre liv. Da jeg kom til mig selv, laa en udstoppet løve ved min side og stirrede anklagende.     Side 29 - Min tid som fodnote i en andens metafor Jeg fandt min næste guide for foden af Spitzkoppe-bjerget i Damaraland, bappende paa et tibetansk bedelys. Eller var det en jernspurv? Jeg antog, det var en slags lokalt inhalationsritual. Det viste sig at være hans frokost. Hr. Ask Hasselbalch – en besnærende type med langt blik og kort lunte, der talte i taager og bar sin tropehjelm paa kunstnerisk sned. Han stirrede ind i solen, som skyldte den ham penge, og hviskede: “Dette er ikke en ørken. Dette er en allegori. Og du er en fodnote.” Jeg nikkede høfligt og forsøgte at fremstaa som en mand vant til at blive metaforisk degraderet. Før jeg kunne bede om mere haandgribelig vejledning, begyndte sandet at bevæge sig. En skikkelse formet af støv og sorg gled gennem landskabet med den selvsikkerhed, man normalt kun ser hos folk med eget vaabenskjold. Han samlede blaffere op. Ensomme sjæle. Og de forsvandt. Jeg vaagnede i et forladt tehus. Paa en serviet, mellem en kop dampende rooibos og en flue i koma, stod det skrevet: “‘Dust Devil' (1992)”. Jeg drak teen. Den smagte af symbolisme… og kardemomme.     Side 77 - På feltfod med Den Glødende Kossak (Notater fra fronten) Til sidst krydsede jeg en grænse (moralsk, forstås) og mødte Lord St. John-Paridon. En mand for hvem sort krudt var et krydderi. Han sagde ikke meget, men duftede svagt af kampvognsolie og propaganda. Uden varsel kastede han mig op i en hestekærre holdt sammen af patronhylstre og patriotisme og satte kursen durk mod flammehavet ‘Red Scorpion' (1988), hvor en højrøstet kossak ved navn Dolph Lundgren skinnede som en babyolieret obelisk midt i et opbrust hav af stridende indfødte. Jeg kastede op af respekt ved synet af Zarens glinsende barbar, som han stod der i modlyset fra den dræbende sol med vodka i aarerne og bly i blikket. Han udnævnte mig overraskende til feltpræst, og jeg døbte omgående en bærbar artillerifløjlskanon, mens officererne istemte med salmer, og en uralsk pansersavant forsøgte at forhandle med en hest. Vi passerede gennem kampzoner, hvor lastbiler eksploderede af stolthed og Dolphs anmasende viljestyrke fik selv baobabtræerne til at gribe til vaaben. En tank forsøgte at kapitulere, men blev omgaaende overtalt til at eksplodere i stedet. Jeg red bort paa trykbølgen, ud mod horisonten, som en gentleman paa en galopperende flaske Zanzibar-gin.      Kapitlet uden hvilket intet ville være muligt Jeg maa, med løvernes brøl endnu rungende i kraniet og en mild hjernebetændelse bag brillen, nedfælde min dybeste tak til jer – medlemmer af den hæderkronede Klub Moviebox. Jeres bidrag er som portvinen i mit glas: sød, klinisk nødvendig og til tider eksplosiv. Uden jeres rundhaandede støtte maatte jeg finansiere ekspeditionerne gennem ulovlige visninger af ‘Crocodile Dundee II' paa en opsprættet mulepose i det vestlige Zambia, eller bytte The Moviebox Collection-videoer mod myggenet og malaria-piller ved kontinentets mange uforudsigelige grænseposter. Det er jer, der gør det muligt for mig at bære tropehjelm med værdighed, og fortsætte disse svimlende cineastiske odysséer uden kompas, kort eller samvittighed, i jagten paa film, som kun vinden, Peter Peter og muligvis tordenguden Shango kender. Epilog Og saaledes slutter beretningen om vores prøvelser og pinsler paa det Afrikanske kontinent. En rejse med løver, dæmoner og eksploderende lastbiler. Hvad lærte vi? Maaske intet. Maaske alt. Men én ting staar klart: Jeg er vendt hjem med skrammer, visdom og tre nye VHS'er, som alle er dækket af sand og forbandelser. Spol altid episoden tilbage, naar De har lyttet færdigt. Med tropisk hilsen, Kaptajn Ask, Kommandør Sonny, Oberst Niels og Deres ydmyge rejsefører, C. K. I. Christensen, Esq.

Pierre Haski, journaliste, chroniqueur à France Inter et surtout ancien président de Reporters Sans Frontières.Je ne vais pas y aller par 4 chemins, j'adore écouter Pierre sur France Inter, je le trouve didactique, clair et surtout il garde son courage.L'épisode a été enregistré à la toute fin décembre 2024 afin de vous donner le contexte de notre conversation.Si vous suivez l'actualité avec un soupçon de perplexité, vous le connaissez sans doute pour sa capacité à rendre la géopolitique intelligible dans un monde toujours plus complexe. Pierre est aussi l'auteur d'un ouvrage sur la Palestine, sujet brûlant s'il en est, qu'il aborde avec la profondeur d'un expert mais aussi l'humilité de l'homme de terrain.Dans cet épisode, j'ai voulu aller plus loin que les simples flashs d'info ou les réactions épidermiques. J'ai questionné Pierre sur ce qu'il appelle “la marge du monde” – ces zones que l'on regarde peu, mais où se jouent les équilibres de demain.

Pierre Haski, journaliste, chroniqueur à France Inter et surtout ancien président de Reporters Sans Frontières.Je ne vais pas y aller par 4 chemins, j'adore écouter Pierre sur France Inter, je le trouve didactique, clair et surtout il garde son courage.L'épisode a été enregistré à la toute fin décembre 2024 afin de vous donner le contexte de notre conversation.Si vous suivez l'actualité avec un soupçon de perplexité, vous le connaissez sans doute pour sa capacité à rendre la géopolitique intelligible dans un monde toujours plus complexe. Pierre est aussi l'auteur d'un ouvrage sur la Palestine, sujet brûlant s'il en est, qu'il aborde avec la profondeur d'un expert mais aussi l'humilité de l'homme de terrain.Dans cet épisode, j'ai voulu aller plus loin que les simples flashs d'info ou les réactions épidermiques. J'ai questionné Pierre sur ce qu'il appelle “la marge du monde” – ces zones que l'on regarde peu, mais où se jouent les équilibres de demain. Nous avons évoqué la guerre en Ukraine, le conflit israélo-palestinien, la position ambigüe de la France, l'émergence du Sud global, le rôle grandissant de la Chine… et surtout les fractures qui nous empêchent souvent de comprendre ce que vivent “les autres”.Ce qui m'a profondément marqué dans cet échange, c'est cette manière qu'a Pierre de relier ses expériences personnelles – à Zanzibar, à Jérusalem, en Afrique du Sud – à la grande Histoire.

After a long journey, as both Italian andSwiss railways decided that this Sunday was the best day for network and equipment maintenance, I arrived in Geneva after dusk. On Monday 17th ofMarch at 9 o' clock, as sharp as a Swiss clock, the FIATA Headquarters' meeting began with a rather ambitious programme, harbouring the desire to “provide participants with key market trends and trade developments as well as an external outlook in corridors and logistics in an uncertain environment.”Michael McKay kicked the ball with some historical and cultural background for the city of Geneva, a crossroad for the world of trade and an international meeting magnet: 5,000 conferences annually, half a million delegates, 43 high level international organizations based in Geneva . . . shall we name them all? One for all: the Red Cross/Red Crescent. Turgut Erkeskin    President Turgut Erkeskin welcomed 200+ delegates at FIATA's HQ from 51 countries: “this year, speakers and moderators have been invited from all over the world” to animate several sessions. Among the achievements of FIATA, Turgut mentioned the excellent work with many internationalorganizations, theachievements in FIATA's digital policy and risk and insurance and cybersecurity policies. He also gave account of a new regional engagement programme, which – for the first time this year – will see FIATA organizing regional meetings in all regions, starting with Zanzibar, then India, Brazil and Prague in the EU. “FIATA remains focused on trade facilitation,” declared Turgut.

Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

"I was inspired to create a piece reflecting the complex history of this World Heritage Site via the personal recollections of a centenarian with fond memories of growing up on such a cosmopolitan coast. And yet if we go further back, more complicated histories also reside here - and so I wanted to refer to that ambiguity sonically - especially in a place which is now such a tourist destination.  "I used the field recording to create a portal in and out of the space and also to make a few new sounds scattered around the piece. It's a beautifully vibrant street soundscape to be able to springboard from in various ways. This is a place where I have travelled and experienced sonic histories constantly emanating - each element telling a different origin story - looping back to the present day where sounds reveal the past and present intertwined. "I included sounds of a call to prayer, ocean and also words from a guide at the Anglican Cathedral - the music also includes Indian vocals, a background Swahili church service and my own musical response. I wanted diverse sounds reflecting the different communities and elements revolving within and around such a rich and multi-layered place."

Abdulrazak Gurnah won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2021 ‘for his uncompromising and compassionate penetration of the effects of colonialism.' In his latest novel, Theft, he returns to the streets of his childhood home in Zanzibar, to trace the intertwined lives of three young people in a story of love, betrayal and kindness. The Possibility of Tenderness is a memoir by the prize-winning poet Jason Allen-Paisant as he moves from his family home in the rural Jamaican hills, to Oxford's gleaming spires, to the woodlands of Leeds. It's a story about the transformative power of plants and the legacy of dreams. Language, music and food are at the heart of Samantha Ellis's new book, Chopping Onions On My Heart: On Losing and Preserving Culture. The daughter of Iraqi-Jewish refugees, she grew up surrounded by the noisy, colourful sounds of Judeo-Iraqi Arabic, a language in danger of being lost forever. Producer: Katy Hickman

Lightweight furniture? Perfect for clearing space for workouts or dance parties.The more convenient life gets, the less we move.One of the biggest home mistakes? Letting clutter take over—because it's not just a physical mess, it's a mental drain. Empty walls might seem minimal, but too bare can feel unfinished. And color? It sets the mood. Keep bedrooms restful, workout spaces energetic, and save bold reds for a statement outfit, not your kitchen walls.Let tech work for you. Swap harsh overhead lights for smart bulbs and lamps to protect your circadian rhythm. And don't let clutter creep back—keep a donation bin handy so there's always an easy exit strategy (clutter in, clutter out).Want a kitchen that supports healthy habits? Use clear glass containers for effortless meal prep, add an anti-fatigue mat to keep your body happy, and bring in plants or candles to create a space that feels as good as it looks.Biggest trend right now?

Luigi De Pascalis"Il buio e le stelle"La Lepre Edizioniwww.lalepreedizioni.comAndrea Sarra nasce nel 1895 a Borgo San Rocco, immaginario paese d'Abruzzo all'ombra della Majella, e fa parte di una generazione che più di ogni altra vedrà cambiare il mondo. Quindici anni fa Luigi De Pascalis ha già narrato parte della sua storia, dall'infanzia alle trincee infernali della Grande Guerra, nel romanzo La pazzia di Dio, incastonato nella parte centrale di questo libro. Ora – con una scrittura poetica e insieme di raro, potente realismo – affida alla voce di Andrea il racconto del “prima”, l'epica corale e senza tempo di Borgo San Rocco, filtrato dai ricordi familiari, e di un “dopo” a Zanzibar, dove il protagonista approda alla ricerca della donna africana che suo padre Filippo ha amato più di ogni altra. Si delinea così un viaggio che coincide con la vita, in continuo moto ondivago tra passato e presente, denso di incontri che, ognuno a suo modo, si riveleranno decisivi. Come l'Ulisse omerico Andrea è al tempo stesso tutti e nessuno, sospinto da ogni lancio di dadi del destino verso un'Itaca che resta indelebile in lui, malgrado ogni sua fuga più o meno consapevole.Luigi De Pascalis ha pubblicato molti racconti di genere fantastico, vincendo diversi premi (Montepulciano, Courmayeur, Tolkien tra gli altri). È stato il primo scrittore italiano di narrativa fantastica a essere tradotto negli Stati Uniti, in un'antologia ormai storica del genere a cura di Sprague De Camp, ed è presente in molte antologie italiane. Con La Lepre Edizioni ha pubblicato anche, nel 2010, Rosso Velabro, Il labirinto dei Sarra, La pazzia di Dio; la graphic novel Pinocchio (2011, Premio Carlo Lorenzini); Il nido della Fenice (2012); Il mantello di porpora (2014, candidato al Premio Strega); Notturno bizantino (2016, candidato al Premio Strega e vincitore del Premio Acqui Storia); Volgograd (2018); Il signore delle furie danzanti (2020); Il cavaliere, la morte e il diavolo (2021). Tra i libri pubblicati con altre case editrici: La morte si muove nel buio (Mondadori 2013); Il sigillo di Caravaggio (2019), Il pittore maledetto (2020) e La congrega segreta (2022), tutti e tre con Newton Compton; Odissea futura (già finalista al premio Urania, Tabula Fati 2024). Con Delos Book, tra il 2014 e il 2023, ha pubblicato in e-book La cena di Dumas, Il collezionista di sogni, La Chanson d'Antiochie, Il vaso di Pandora.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Many of us take turning on a light switch or connecting our devices to a home Wi-Fi network for granted. If our phones need charging, we plug them in, if we want hot water we boil a kettle.

Mix of the Week #574 is "Bright Patterns Influences Mix" by United Freedom Collective Follow and include @unitedfreedomcollective in your track ID requests "This mix is made up of music that has inspired me along the journey of writing and producing our new record ‘Bright Patterns'. It warms up slowly but should have enough groove in there to get people moving their bodies. As well as one cut from the record, I have also included an edit I made of the wonderful Shabaka track ‘Ital is vital'. There's music from the US, Zanzibar, Lebanon, Togo, Algeria, Germany, Guyana... it's a smorgasbord of musical traditions that I love, and hope you do too." - United Freedom Collective https://unitedfreedomcollective.bandcamp.com/album/bright-patterns --- ✉️ DC Email list: eepurl.com/dN23Jw
