This call for papers also explores the critical dimension of freedom of speech as it intersects with the realms of sport and warfare, particularly within the Global South context. This theme encourages a deep dive into how freedom of expression is navigated, contested, and manifested within sports during war and peace. We invite submissions of individual articles of up to 10,000 words that investigate the complex relationship between sport and war from the Global South perspective.

🌍✨ Today, April 22nd, let's celebrate significant milestones in the history of science and technology that have shaped our world! 🚀 🔬 In 1915, the tragic use of chlorine gas at the Battle of Ypres marked a turning point in modern warfare. This day reminds us of the profound consequences of scientific innovation and the importance of ethics in research. 🌿 🌳 In 1970, a wave of awareness swept across the United States with the very first Earth Day, mobilizing over 20 million people for the protection of our planet. This initiative launched a global movement, highlighting how collaboration can lead to positive changes. 🌐 📜 Then in 1993, the Chemical Weapons Convention was signed, banning the use of these terrifying weapons. A powerful reminder that peace and security are also products of human innovation. 🕊️ Each of these moments underscores the duality of technology: capable of both the best and the worst. They encourage us to reflect on our own impact and how we can, individually and collectively, steer technology towards the good of all. 🌟 💬 Let's share our thoughts: How can we, as professionals, promote responsible and sustainable innovation in our fields? Let's start the discussion! 🗨️

#PCMS chair Frank Williams, with over four decades of experience in #journalism and editing (BBC, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty), offered profound insights into the #media's shifting role, the erosion of #trust in legacy outlets, and the transformative impact of #technology on editorial responsibilities. 👉 You can access his presentation from the #TechWatch project held at Rebel in Oslo here (in English): https://lnkd.in/eu5Yvn5w 🗣 The discussions that unfolded after the event, extending into spirited exchanges at Rebels Bar, delved into the evolving dynamics of the #media landscape. A focal point of our dialogue was the critical challenge of reinstating #trust in media amidst the surge in #AI applications and #socialmedia platforms, where the veracity and quality of information often remain unchecked. This issue resonates deeply in our current climate, where discerning truth from mis/ #disinformation has never been more complex. 🗯 Moreover, our exchange with the Norwegian audience shed light on the media's increasing #bias and #political alignments, fostering 'confirmation bubbles' that further complicate the public's quest for impartial news. ✍ These discussions underscore the necessity of our continuous effort to understand and adapt to the fast-evolving #digital landscape, ensuring media remains a pillar of #democracy and a trustworthy source of #information. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to these invaluable conversations. Let's keep the dialogue going. Thanks: Elektronisk Forpost Norge #EFN Tom Fredrik Blenning and Øyvind Hanssen from UiT for kicking off the #TechWatch project and Active Citizen Fund from EEA and Norway Grants via Nadace OSF for the support. #MediaTrust #DigitalTransformation #withCourage #HumanRights #ColdWar

The futurists of the 1960s anticipated a 21st century of warp-speed economic progress and technological marvels: limitless energy, space colonies, and, of course, flying cars. So what happened to the sci-fi world we were promised? In The Conservative Futurist, AEI Senior Fellow James Pethokoukis explores the history of the "Great Downshift" that crushed our dreams of a fantastic future and charts an optimistic—yet realistic—path to the kind of progress and prosperity that those techno-prophets once foretold. The Conservative Futurist reveals that the failed futuristic visions of the past were totally possible, and they still are if America chooses to take risks boldly and embrace the future with confidence.

Say what you will about Goose, but their latest release is a truly compelling artistic and commercial decision. Ted Tapes 2024 is a generous act of faith, a vulnerable gesture to the fanbase. The compilation is essentially a three-hour series of live improv takes with their new drummer, Cotter Ellis. Rehearsal sessions. Tryouts. As the band wrote: "They were recorded solely for the purpose of reference, not intended for any kind of release. The instruments and microphones were rigged up quickly, and the playing was raw and free from any expectations." So, why release them? The community response has been overwhelmingly positive, even after weeks of grim rumor mill nonsense following Ben Atkind's unceremonious departure (and following what was seen as, overall, a lackluster 2023 for the band). Of course, the main thrust of the critical reception is: Well, what's the new drummer's deal? It's been amazing to read through fans' in-depth dissection of Ellis's style (fans literally scrutinizing snare drum tightness, polyrhythmic decision-making, improvisatory communication). Not every band is lucky enough to have a fanbase that cares that much. Of course, there's been a lot of shoot-from-the-hip troll comment bullshit, but overall the chatter has been incredibly insightful. The point, I think, is to lay the cards on the table and share something with the fans: Listen to this guy we just hired. Listen carefully and try to hear what we heard. Understand with an open heart why we dragged our band through this cataclysmic change and try to imagine with us the brighter future ahead. Goose is a young band primed for growth. It's easy to poke fun at them as some sort of teeny-bopper jam band in Phish's shadow, but, what the hell, they *are* a young band in the throes of early development. You're either interested in the story or you're not, and if you are you soon realize that it's the same story you're telling yourself about your own life: You are making your way through this world like everyone else, stumbling, rising each morning, embracing those you love and attempting slowly to build something new for your future, which is to say, attempting slowly to build something new for your past.
