CON GONZALO FRÍAS EN CANAL VIA X

En esta notable entrevista realizada al polifacético músico británico Steven Wilson viajamos  a traves de la música, el cine, filosofía, arte y mucho más;  junto a Gonzalo Frías con toda la pasión y estilo que caracterizan a su programa 7MO VICIO. En estos tiempos de cambio, donde el mundo y el séptimo arte de a poco  estan abriendo sus puertas y su visión ante nuevas fuentes creativas, dejando de lado los prejuicios y lo conservador... Les traemos este gran programa de cine  que nos lleva más allá de la pantalla conectándonos con las emociones, la creatividad, el pensamiento y más.
 

La música de Steven es conocida como "Rock Conceptual",  estilo en el cual  convergen las  influencias del cine y la literatura, lo que hace que sus álbumes sean comparados con ver una película o leer una novela. Sus influencias y experimentos musicales son extremadamente dispares, abarcando desde la psicodelia, la música ambiental, la electrónica, el pop, hasta el metal extremo; siendo llamado una "personalidad musical bipolar" por lo imprevisible y evolucionado de su obra.  Ante este genio creativo Gonzalo Frías; conductor de 7mo Vicio y especialista de cine;  con gran reflexión, sensibilidad y agudeza realiza una gran entrevista a la par del espíritu punk que caracteriza este programa que es una fuente inagotable de experimentación e inspiración.

"Curbing climate change"

"Curbing climate change" Why it's so hard to act in time: This summer I worked on the Greenland ice sheet, part of a scientific experiment to study surface melting and its contribution to Greenland’s accelerating ice losses. By virtue of its size, elevation and currently frozen state, Greenland has the potential to cause large and rapid increases to sea level as it melts. When I returned, a nonscientist friend asked me what the research showed about future sea level rise. He was disappointed that I couldn’t say anything definite, since it will take several years to analyze the data. This kind of time lag is common in science, but it can make communicating the issues difficult. That’s especially true for climate change, where decades of data collection may be required to see trends.

A recent draft report on climate change by federal scientists exploits data captured over many decades to assess recent changes, and warns of a dire future if we don’t change our ways. Yet few countries are aggressively reducing their emissions in a way scientists say are needed to avoid the dangers of climate change. While this lack of progress dismays people, it’s actually understandable. Human beings have evolved to focus on immediate threats. We have a tough time dealing with risks that have time lags of decades or even centuries. As a geoscientist, I’m used to thinking on much longer time scales, but I recognize that most people are not. I see several kinds of time lags associated with climate change debates. It’s important to understand these time lags and how they interact if we hope to make progress.

"Blade Runner 2049" Wired review

"Blade Runner 2049" 

Wired review

BY JAMES TEMPERTON VIA WIRED UK

Blade Runner 2049 is horribly beautiful, It's just as brilliant as the original. Its beauty is in shadows, blood, neon, desolation and vast, monolithic temples. From start to finish its soundtrack quakes and bellows like a fog horn with an unshakeable 50-a-day habit. There’s the perfect amount of Ryan Gosling speckled with blood looking into unendingly grey middle-distance while the the soundtrack BWAAAAMPS until you’re shaking in your seat and clenching your fists in awe. Blade Runner 2049 is beautifully horrible.

This is a fever dream in which the characters are dwarfed by the dizzying ambition of the set design. Science fiction films so often imagine a prosaic, Americanised future. Denis Villeneuve – borrowing heavily from Ridley Scott’s original – has created a masterpiece. In 1982, when the camera panned through a dystopian Los Angeles, the look and feel of sci-fi films shifted. Thirty-five years later, that same trick is pulled off over and over.

YOUR GUIDE TO THE FUTURE OF IMPACT CAPITALISM

BY BEN SCHILLER VIA  FAST COMPANY

Every day we’re reminded of the good and bad that companies can do. For each B-Corp taking on a social or environmental challenge, there’s an Equifax exposing your personal data to scammers. For every corporation like Unilever–probably the most sustainable publicly owned business on the planet–there’s a Motel 6 selling out its Latino customers.

The world of business is increasingly filled with a diverse set of organizations. We have companies that are all about profit, that see their whole mission as pleasing Wall Street and their shareholders. We have companies that are partly about profit, that also want to take care of employees, customers, and the communities where they operate. We have nonprofit companies, where business is the means and the motor, but not the end.
