Why do airlines sell too many tickets? - Nina Klietsch

Have you ever sat in a doctor’s office for hours, despite having an appointment? Has a hotel turned down your reservation because it’s full? Have you been bumped off a flight that you paid for? These are all symptoms of overbooking, a practice where businesses sell or book more than their capacity. So why do they do it? Nina Klietsch explains the math behind this frustrating practice.

Georges Descombes, “Designing a River Garden ( Daniel Urban Kiley Lecture)


source: Harvard GSD    2016年11月17日
Beginning in the late nineteenth century, the Aire River, which runs northeast into the Rhine, was progressively canalized near Geneva, where it flows through valleys historically devoted to farming. In 2001, the State of Geneva opened a competition with the idea of restoring the Aire to its original shape and meanders by eliminating the canal. Atelier Descombes Rampini proposed instead, in their winning entry, to combine the clear territorial cut of the canal with a parallel new vast divagation space for the river. In the process, as Georges Descombes stated in the proposal, “the canal becomes the pointer for the transformations, a reference line giving the possibility to understand the ‘before’ and ‘after’—a becoming which superimposes both situations” and accepts that “something began which was already there.”The design’s complex organization links the new river space to a linear series of gardens in the former canal. The realized design has become a long linear garden that organizes the views in a true Einsensteinian montage, aiming at introducing into this territory “shocking” juxtapositions intended to prompt “questions, worries, hopes” that will renew attention and emotion.Among Descombes’s architectural realizations are the Swiss Path around Lake Uri in Switzerland, the Bijlmer Memorial in Amsterdam, and Parc de la Cour du Maroc in Paris. The Aire River project was awarded the Schulthess Swiss Gardens Prize in 2012, was named Best Swiss Landscape Architecture Project of the Year in 2015, and is a finalist for the 2016 Rosa Barba Landscape Prize.

Learning in a Digital Age with Sonia Livingstone


source: The RSA    2016年11月29日
Learning in a Digital Age with author & professor Sonia Livingstone. What is the meaning of education in a digitally connected but fiercely competitive and individualised world? Professor Sonia Livingstone presents the results of her most recent fieldwork, based on the experiences of young teenagers growing up and learning in a digital world. Livingstone offers insight into young people’s everyday lives, and unveils how the structures of social class and cultural capital shape the development of personal interests, relationships and autonomy.

Language of the Gods, Part Three: Tantra and Chakras, with Debashish Banerji


source: New Thinking Allowed     2015年12月31日
Debashish Banerji, PhD, is Dean of Academic Affairs at the University of Philosophical Research in Los Angeles as well as an adjunct faculty member at Pasadena City College and the California Institute of Integral Studies. He is also the former director of the East West Cultural Center in Los Angeles. He is author of Seven Quartets of Becoming: A Transformative Yoga Psychology Based on the Diaries of Sri Aurobindo and also The Alternative Nation of Abanindranath Tagore, a book about his great grandfather. He edited an anthology about his great uncle, Rabindranath Tagore in the Twenty-First Century.
Here he focuses on the more esoteric aspects of the Sanskrit tradition, particularly as embodied in Tantra. Whereas traditional Vedanta teachings emphasize the attainment of spiritual freedom by abandoning all desire, in Tantra the emphasis is placed on the fulfillment of all desires. Tantric traditions also elaborate in great detail the subtle bodies of the human being, include nodes of awareness called Chakras and pathways between these Chakras called Nadis. There are seven Chakras starting at the base of the spine and rising up to the “Thousand Petalled Lotus” above the top of the head. Each of these is associated with a different focus of consciousness. Each is also associated with a different Hindu goddess. Through Tantric meditation one achieves an awareness of the unique powers associated with each goddess.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He serves as dean of transformational psychology at the University of Philosophical Research. He teaches parapsychology for ministers in training with the Centers for Spiritual Living through the Holmes Institute. He has served as vice-president of the Association for Humanistic Psychology, and is the recipient of its Pathfinder Award for outstanding contributions to the field of human consciousness. He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.
