WNYC's Radio Lab
Are We Coins?

29 Jun 2009 | 6:30 pm

After we released our show about Stochasticity, we received a lot of comments about the idea humans can be just as predictable as coins. In that show, Jonah Lehrer was telling us about a study on the 82-83 76ers, and he was saying that even when a basketball player is supposedly hot – really on a streak – he is no more likely to make his next shot that any other time. Basketball players are slaves to their averages. Well, it turns out this isn’t the whole story. In fact, right before we released the show, Jad got a call from Steve Strogatz, a mathematician from Cornell University.

This hour, Radiolab examines Stochasticity, which is just a wonderfully slippery and smarty-pants word for randomness. How big a role does randomness play in our lives? Do we live in a world of magic and meaning or … is it all just chance and happenstance? To…

Video: Using Live View Mode for Macro Shots

KerryG

2 Jul 2009 | 7:47 am

One of my favorite shots at a wedding is the ring shot or close-up shots of specific details. For these shots I love to use a Lensbaby Composer. With many DSLR’s it can be pretty tricky because of the warping action of the Lensbaby lens along with the small viewfinder and when using the super wide angle lens it just compounds the issue on macro shots. In the past, the best I could do was to get the focus as close as possible and then take a series of shots making slight changes to the focus each time. With the Canon EOS 50D that I am using now life has become MUCH easier with the Live…

If you are updating an old version of the database, then you miss out on stuff! This happens, sadly, all the time when more than one person has access to a master database.

Why you may ask? Well look at this statement made in the article: One study found that men who were taking statins before undergoing surgical removal of their prostate had a lower risk of having the cancer return. “The use of statins at the time of surgery was associated with a 30 percent reduction in the risk of recurrence of prostate cancer,” said lead researcher Dr. Robert J.

You're familiar with volcanoes, eruptive vents where hot magma escapes the Earth's interior – sometimes with disastrous effects. But did you know that volcanoes have shaped many of the planets and moons in the Solar System, not just our own Earth? And just in the last few years astronomers have discovered there are cold volcanoes on some of the icy objects in the outer solar system.

It’s a bitchfest royale in this week’s news, as two mediocre authors let rip at their critics – Britain’s Alain de Botton (“a writer so grand nowadays that his entire works are written in the royal We” says the Telegraph) and American Alice Hoffman (“not an author whose work I believe can be taken very seriously” says the Literary Saloon).

In our family”, wrote Ann Morrow Lindbergh, “an experience was not finished, nor truly experienced, unless written down and shared with another.” Today, we’re considering the difference between diaries and autobiographies – which one is the more truthful? And which the more self-serving? Do you keep a journal? Is it an inviolably private matter (to go with you to the grave) or do you subscribe to Mae West’s dictum – “Keep a diary and one day it’ll keep you”?
Books That Matter: Death Comes for the Archbishop

29 Jun 2009 | 1:32 pm

"The greatest American novelist of the 20th century" says Oxford don John Simopoulos of Willa Cather, the author who grew up in Nebraska and is best known for her depictions of frontier life. John recommends Death Comes for the Archbishop (1927) "nothing short of magical" he says, and when John says that, you can take it as gospel. He also suggests you read Shadows on the Rock (1931), a novel set in 17th century Quebec describing the quiet, isolated life of Cecile Auclair and her father, the town apothecary, and The Professor's House (1925), set around an ancient cliff city in New Mexico.

"So that’s what you look like!" was one of the most commonly-heard exclamations at London’s Poetry Café on Friday evening, as the cast of LITOPIA AFTER DARK made a little bit of Litopian history – yes, we finally met, face-to-face, in the flesh, and bereft of the horny carapace of electronic pseudonymity. We recorded two shows back-to-back – this is the first, totally live and completely unedited. The format is a little different to the usual LAD sweet-and-sour melange – we decided to use this occasion to launch the first of this year’s Summer Entertainments... you’ll find that…

Story: After the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the government suspected that some Muslim charities were funneling donations to terrorist groups like al-Qaida. Anyone who donated to those charities could be accused of giving material support to terrorists. As a result, many Muslims abandoned their religious commitments to charity, one of the five pillars of Islam.

It's all Iran this week, folks. Violence and protests have flaired in Iran following last week's disputed election results. The government moved quickly to shut down the flow of information out of, and into, the country. But Twitter and other social media tools are keeping that flow of information going. In fact, it's not a flow, but a flood. We'll take an in-depth look at how vital social media tools have become in Iran in the wake of the elections. Show notes, links and pics at tinyurl.com/wtpblog.

It was during the lead up to the Quebec referendum in 1995 that Jowi Taylor came up with the idea for a guitar that would incorporate pieces of Canadian history, literally. He spearheaded a tremendous effort to find things as disparate and meaningful as Pierre Trudeau's canoe paddle, the sacred Golden spruce of Haida Gwai and Maurice Richard's Stanley Cup ring. Then, he had the 64 artifacts turned into a guitar. The guitar debuted three years ago.

All Smiles is the music of Portland, Ore., artist Jim Fairchild. If the name sounds at all familiar, it's because he was the guitarist for Grandaddy before the band broke up in 2006. I've talked a lot about former Grandaddy frontman Jason Lytle this year, and how his own solo album (Yours Truly, The Commuter) shows that he was the great talent and creative force behind the band. But Fairchild is incredibly talented in his own right.

He's about to release the whimsically titled Pop Ooga Plus, his third full-length LP; like his first two albums, it's full of delicately woven glitches and pops that seem almost tangible, as though they're tumbling out of the speakers. Pop Ooga Plus is a mostly instrumental album, but Hasunuma sings on this short but sweet cut called "Vol. Struggle."
The Legends: "Always The Same"

National Public Radio

16 Jun 2009 | 1:48 pm

The Legends is a group from Stockholm, Sweden that's put together a fantastically crunchy, introspective rock album called 'Over And Over.' Though there are some quieter, gently strummed moments on the record, much of the guitar work on 'Over And Over' is very reminiscent of My Bloody Valentine or The Jesus And Mary Chain, with dreamy waves of screeching feedback.

The Antlers In Concert

National Public Radio

25 Jun 2009 | 7:54 am

The Antlers have released one of the year's best albums. 'Hospice' is s an epic but intimate album of astonishing beauty, as well as one of the most moving, heart-wrenching set of songs I've had the pleasure of hearing. It evolves and unfolds majestically, soaring from hushed moments to grand, cage-rattling swells of shredded guitar noise. This performance was recorded live at the Black Cat in Washington, DC in March, 2009.

10 Jun 2009 | 8:23 am

Hear selections from Manners and more in a full concert recorded live from Washington, D.C. The performance is followed by an interview with the band.

Talk about Art

2 Jun 2009 | 6:00 am

Talk about Art is a six-minute documentary film that highlights visitors to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC. Among the visitors who share their thoughts on art are people from all walks of life—including students, a taxi driver, an architect, a security guard, and a hairdresser. These are not art historians, but art is a common bond for them, and definitely a force in their lives. For some art is a way to connect to the past; for others it is a way to see the world around them in a different way. Listening to their side of the museum experience may get you talking about art as…

BOTNS #32: Gifts for Dad

2 Jun 2009 | 9:05 pm

It's a short podcast this week. I'm just back from Book Expo America (BEA) in New York. Ann stayed in the NY/CT area for a few appointments and is not home yet. So I'm doing the podcast all by myself (yikes). BEA was an exhausting blur, but an amazingly fun one! There are a ton of great books coming throughout the rest of 2009. We got the scoop on many that we're looking forward to reading and telling you about. For Father's Day, I recommend three books (in addition to Ann's Lee Child recommendation from last time): a work of narrative history about Napoleon's march toward Russia and the…

BOTNS #30: We Go Viral

5 May 2009 | 9:15 pm

We start today's episode by talking about some celebrities that influence the book-buying public. Oprah is an obvious one. For our UK listeners, Richard and Judy are often responsible for books selling hundreds of thousands of copies (and they've just put up their list of summer reads). But there's one other person who's been helping books sell. A recent New York Times interview with President Obama included the fact that he's been reading Joseph O'Neill's Netherland (also one of Ann's favorites), and sales picked up right away. The publisher even rushed the paperback to stores - it now goes…

So Many Tsars, So Little Time

30 Jun 2009 | 6:44 pm

It's been only a couple of months since my last trip to Amsterdam, so there better be a good reason to return so soon for yet another visit. And how could I say no to an invitation to attend the inaugural ceremony for the opening of the Hermitage Amsterdam, the ambitious collaboration between the famous museum in St. Petersburg and its colleagues in the Netherlands? While two previous attempts at branding by the Hermitage Museum â first in London and then in Las Vegas â turned out to be short-lived, this latest and most ambitious venture, in a beautifully restored 17th century…
All the Presidents' (Men and) Portraits

9 Jun 2009 | 6:44 pm

Sunday morning's ritual: a large cup of coffee and piles of newspaper spread out all over my bed. Then, out into the world to the farmers' market, with its abundance of color, texture, and taste. The Santa Monica market is brimming with eccentric characters vying for attention. Last Sunday, it was a slim, shirtless young fellow, with his pants so low that the only mystery remaining was whether he'd been circumcised or not. Looking at the multitude of his boring tattoos, I wondered if he had been exposed to art in school or had ever been taken to a museum. You see, I have a theory that if our…
Highs and Lows on the Museum Scene in LA

2 Jun 2009 | 6:28 pm

Let me come clean. Every time I visit the Metropolitan Museum, I skip the galleries displaying American art, and until recently, it was the same with the Huntington in San Marino. I would spend most of the time there savoring the world-class collection of English paintings and then finish by looking at a couple of temporary exhibitions. Not any longer...
Will Nude Edge Cowboy Out of White House?

26 May 2009 | 6:44 pm

On Inauguration Day, four months ago, I talked about the dream I had for what our new president could accomplish if he decided to become a champion of art. I imagined Barack taking Michelle and their adorable girls on a stroll through the National Gallery, and I fantasized about the president deciding to bring contemporary artworks into the White House â not only into the living quarters, but the Oval Office as well. What a great chance it would be to breathe new energy into the historic rooms, which have gotten a bit stale and could use a break from traditional images of…
So Close to the President, Yet So Far Away

19 May 2009 | 6:44 pm

President Obama's commencement speech at Notre Dame has gotten a lot of attention. I heard it on the radio and watched it on TV and was impressed by his eloquence. But when I saw on the front page of Monday's New York Times the photo of students with the president â big smiles and handshakes all around â I was taken aback by the unintentional lack of civility shown by the students. Take a look at the photograph...

Iran on the Brink; Financial Regs; Healthcare Snag

Massive post-election protests in Iran are being met with threats of an iron fist if they continue. What should Obama do? Treasury Secretary Geithner unveiled new regulatory proposals to oversee the financial industry. Will they better protect consumers or are they too watered down by special interests to create real reform? And the CBO announced the costs for healthcare proposals â before the actual bill has been proposed.
Iran; Big Bank Payback, Reregulation; Healthcare

12 Jun 2009 | 3:05 pm

There's a big turnout for the presidential election in Iran. Can a former PM have persuaded the youth vote he's really a reformer? Will the poor out-vote the middle class? Also, banks are eager to pay back their TARP money. Are they just trying to postpone inevitable reform and re-regulation? Plus, will a public-plan healthcare option become a reality, or will partisan compromises strip any plan of any real change for the uninsured?

Is Sonia Sotomayor a judicial activist? A racist? Is empathy a good or bad thing in a judge? Also, North Korea's nuclear activity is an unwelcome challenge. Only China has the kind of influence to get them to scale back, and they've chose not to pull those strings. Then, what's in GM's future? Will the free market or government influence the kinds of cars they should be producing? Finally, can Obama succeed in reforming healthcare?

The Daily PWN 84: A New PWN

Matt Ryan

24 Jan 2009 | 6:43 pm

Hey it’s Matt Ryan with The Daily PWN. You might have noticed an extended absence of audio podcast over the past few months and may be wondering what happened. Well, the answer is pretty simple. After eighty episodes and less than a dozen comments on our website, it became apparent that either we weren’t discussing the topics that really matter to listeners or our site wasn’t as community friendly as would foster a more active conversation. I took a look at some of the email feedback and some of the numbers from past episodes to see where we hit it right and where we may…

BH4BP #52 – Enjoy Concerts, But Protect Your Hearing!

Talli van Sunder

2 Jul 2009 | 1:05 am

Photo by peasap via Flickr Most of us love concerts, but we hate what it does to our ears afterward. Right after a concert our hearing tends to be shot. We feel like we are underwater and have difficulty hearing. Everything sounds so distant and mumbled for a few hours. Since many of us have experienced this, I thought it would be a great topic to cover. So in this episode, I will go over how loud noises can cause hearing loss and give you tips on how to reduce noise and prevent hearing damage. Some references I used while researching this show are The New Wellness Encyclopedia, Mayo Clinic…

We have even more changes that we want to make over time to take it to the next level. Since summer is here, I thought it would be fitting to cover a popular warm weather goal: Getting a flat belly. My goal in this show is to teach you the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about how to achieve a flat, trim stomach. This is important because many people are not completely happy with…
BH4BP #51 – Pasta: It’s Back On the Menu!

Talli van Sunder

25 Jun 2009 | 1:30 am

Photo by Kanko* via Flickr Pasta has gotten a bad rap over the past few years. It has been categorized as a fattening food and been placed in the bad carbohydrate category. Some people have even claimed that it has a high glycemic index. But are any of these claims actually true? That’s an important question to ask because many people love pasta but have been avoiding it like the plague because they believe that it is bad for them. Especially when they are trying to lose weight. But are we operating under the right assumptions? So, today I am going to dedicate this show to…

David van Sunder

29 Jun 2009 | 5:00 am

In this week’s episode of Millionaire or Bust, I covered the news and dug into some neglected feedback. First, I covered the news for the week: Oil was at $69.22/barrel when I checked on Monday, June 29, 2009 at 5:23 am EST. With 5 bank failures, the bank failure total reached 45 for the year.

Have Tinkerbell, will travel

Emily

1 Jul 2009 | 11:11 pm

When my two older daughters were young I bought each of them a small, lightweight Laura Ashley suitcase from TJ Maxx. They were the cutest things and the perfect size for an overnighter or two at Grandma’s. Even now they use them if it’s a single-night’s stay and no serious travel is required. I would be afraid to send those little suitcases on a cross-country trip or through baggage check at the airport. There is no way they’d survive the abuse! And yet those ever-popular, far-too-many, carry-on rolling suitcases aren’t very child friendly (nor are they cute…

A new politics of the common good - Reith Lectures 2009

2 Jul 2009 | 8:00 am

BBC's Reith Lectures 2009 have come to an end with the last lecture and it has been a wonderful ride. Except for the second lecture, that had wee too many examples to support the point, it was pretty persistently an outstanding series. The returning point, to be rounded off in the last lecture (transcript), was that we have been giving too much freedom to the market, resulting in a situation where real policies and real debates are no longer part of the public discourse, but rather left to be decided by market forces. Sandel's plea to let fundamental issues to be decided politically and…

On the basis of my reviews he discovered Ersatz TV and wrote an enthusiastic piece on its maker Annik Rubens or Larissa Vassilian as Van den Boogaard reveals in his blog is Annik's real name. It is all nice and charming that I love Ersatz TV and many of the other podcasts I review at this blog, but I am basically an amateur. The fact that Ronald van den Boogaard agrees with me on this particular point is most of all the achievement of Annik Rubens, but I am willing to admit I feel flattered…

Daartoe had KRO's Voor 1 nacht oud-coureur en wielerjournalist Maarten Ducrot in de studio. Ducrot vertelt openhartig over het lijden in de sport en hoe de toprenner verschilt van de recreant en de amateur in de mate waarin hij pijn kan lijden. Aan de hand van zijn eigen ontmoeting met de pijn komt dit aspect heel levendig uit de verf. Het onderscheid met de absolute winnaars in de wielersport is dan weer hierin gelegen dat…

New podcasts in June 2009 - Anne is a Man

KunstlerCast #70: Commercial and Corporate Art in Public

James Howard Kunstler & Duncan Crary

25 Jun 2009 | 7:19 am

James Howard Kunstler takes a look at various types of public artwork on display in Troy NY, a small American city. Kunstler notes that many public murals in America attempt to put a human face in places where people are noticeably absent. He notices that 20th century commercial advertisements painted on building exteriors exhibit more skill than most 21st century "art." He analyzes a painted steel, corporate sculpture that adorns the public face of glass box corporate building. He also discusses the role that formal statues play in adorning public squares.

KunstlerCast #69: Public Art and Public Eyesores

James Howard Kunstler & Duncan Crary

18 Jun 2009 | 1:48 pm

James Howard Kunstler discusses public art in our cities and towns. Modern public art often lacks artistry and is an ironic representation of our 21st century junk empire. But Kunstler says we don't need any more irony. We need a dignified public realm. Instead of engaging amateurs and children to splash paint on the blank walls of publicly facing buildings, we need to stop creating blank walls in the first place. Even the skilled work of professional muralists often results in little more than a neurotic attempt to give our deactivated streets the appearance of life, when the real problem is…
KunstlerCast #68: Historic Preservation

James Howard Kunstler & Duncan Crary

11 Jun 2009 | 9:26 am

James Howard Kunstler addresses some issues regarding historic preservation. Kunstler supports historic preservation, because adaptive reuse is part of what makes the great European cities so rewarding to be in. According to Kunstler, the historic preservation movement really ramped up in the U.S. after the destruction of Penn Station in New York City. At times the historic preservation movement has gotten hysterical to save any scrap of anything built before WWII. But Kunstler believes that hysteria is understandable when one considers that modern Americans do not create buildings that are…

FluidMedia: Overflow
How to Prevent Social Media Fatigue

jmagennis@befluid.com

12 Jun 2009 | 7:00 am

We discuss one of the more challenging aspects of immersive participation in social media marketing on this week’s Overflow Podcast, we call it social media fatigue. Due to vacation time, work deadlines and simple fatigue we identified that it has caused Cameron to participate a little bit less throughout his social networks. It brings up a very real question, especially for those whose work involves not only contributing but fully immersing in social media on behalf of clients and as an agency in general. How can you prevent the fatigue that comes with trying to be plugged in 24/7?
Social Media Is A Double Edged Sword

jmagennis@befluid.com

4 Jun 2009 | 10:45 am

Our Overflow Podcast this week centers around possible dangers that could occur by implementing social media tactics, when the offering isn’t ready for the rapid word of mouth distribution of the message. Cameron and Joe set the stage for the discussion as it relates to a former client who had hired us to help with their marketing efforts. We had immediately assessed their need for a re-branding and re-positioning strategy in order to achieve their stated goal of reaching an entirely new demographic. This tourism / destination site had seen a steady decline in attendance as their…

In the initial segment of the Overflow Podcast this week, we come clean with the music that we have used for intros and outros for each episode and admit to using copyrighted material from our ITunes collections. It has been a fun component of the post production process, finding the perfect song to compliment the topic whether it be from a lyric, the artist or simply the tone of the composition. However, since we are trying to set a positive example for the rest of the podcasting community we want to respect the ownership rights of the artists who created the music, so it is time to tap the…

Our Overflow podcast for the week is a reminder to make the Offline Ask a key element of your marketing strategy, even in a growing online world. Cameron returns from his vacation with key insights from professionals in the tourism community who made it a point to remind guests to frequent the social networking sites like Facebook and Trip Advisor to leave comments and ratings about their services. At times we focus so hard to driving traffic to the social networks trying to form users into a community, that we forget to encourage that behavior when having face to face interactions with our…

This week on the Overflow podcast, it is the first ever solo effort by Joe Magennis, due to Cameron’s travel schedule. I believe it is the hardest form of podcasting since you have no one to use as a sounding board, no one to step in to help you gather your thoughts or to let you catch your breathe. The overall theme of this post is .. Are you where you thought you would end up? Our agency, Fluid Media has certainly undergone some changes over the years. We have tested alternative strategies flowing us into pools and eddies but we have continued to move in a singular direction…
