Before we all get out of here, a PSA for #BookTwitter: If you like books, you'll love @GuardianAus new-ish pod Book It In. Four hosts (I'm one of them!) with v different taste in books have deep conversations with authors about who they are and the ideas behind their books 1/6

Almost exactly 70 years ago, one of the worst outbreaks of polio struck Denmark. The incredible push to contain it, led by Bjorn Ibsen, gave rise to intensive care in hospitals.
This is the story of how it happened, which I produced for @WHYYThePulse

Thanks to @WHYYThePulse and @DanielESemo for sharing the story of the Copenhagen #polio epidemic of 1952 and how it shaped modern #ICU.
To learn more about it can preorder my book! #TheAutumnGhost due out May 2023 @greystonebooks

The 1950s polio outbreak birthed the modern Intensive Care Unit—the idea of providing critical care to the sickest patients.
On this episode, we explore the roots of intensive care, what makes the unit unique and how it endured the pandemic.

On Day 2, I'm in Yea, where Leigh grew up right by the edge of the river, and the farther he travels on it, the more it feels like home

Well this is very exciting! 💚My first story for the great Australian podcast and radio show, @_allthebest . Tune in live on Sunday at 9am Sydney time (Midnight Irish time) on FBi Radio: fbiradio.com/
First up, we have a story produced by @conorsweets, which follows the incredible love story of Sunny and Peter, who both led parallel lives being convicted of crimes they didn't commit. You can keep up with Sunny's work helping the recently exonerated here @SunnyCenterFDN.

My annual letter:
danwang.co/2021-letter/
This year I discuss China as a place that both moves fast & breaks things and moves fast & breaks people; Lem’s ocean; Mozart’s most strange and subtle opera; dynamism; the Sichuan Basin; prophets over pragmatists; Metaverse; and more.

I was fortunate enough to work on another story for @99piorg, this time about a topic as simple(ish) as ABC

Alphabetical order is a default we take for granted. It’s often the first we try -- or a last resort when all other methods fail. In some cases, it is completely useless. Early ordering methods were often chronological, or by size, geography or hierarchy.

Imagine doing 14 24-hour radio races IN A ROW! That's how @DanielESemo chose to spend hotel quarantine. I had a chat with him about the stories he made and what he learnt. mikewilliams.com.au/daniel-s…

Tokyo-based producer @DanielESemo brings us a story about the Japanese hanko (carved seals used in place of signatures), a tradition that persisted during the digital era. And, how the COVID pandemic might bring a change to this ancient, analog practice. 99percentinvisible.org/episo…

I had a lot of fun chatting about Japanese hanko and their history for this "99% Invisible" podcast episode!
It's extremely well-made and worth a listen, even if you think you already know about hanko.

This algorithm can reconstruct an audio by analyzing minute vibrations of objects depicted in a video. In this experiment, intelligible speech was recovered from the vibrations of a potato-chip bag photographed from 15 feet away through soundproof glass ow.ly/SIdV30n37Hg

Japanese internet works in magical ways...someone went and made an app called "Crabhouse" because they didn't get how Clubhouse works
Clubhouseの使い方が全然わからないのでCrabhouseを３日で作りました。
誰かがゲーム起動するとカニが増えます。たまにしゃべります。それだけカニ。

Cool to see that “Pro Tools is gatekeeping” article make the internet rounds (seeing it outside of my usual podcast spaces, too). I have thoughts...
