Eccentric Circles

Vorticism blasts onto the London scene.  London sees the arrival of Italian Futurism with its glorification of machinery, war and above all, the motor car. The Futurists, in turn, engender Vorticism, possibly Britain’s only homegrown avant garde movement. The Vorticists believe that artists should be supreme representations of the individual, that they should make challenging art which rattles the...

At the turn of the 20th century, in Britain establishment tastes in art prevailed and leaned traditional. Despite being the heart of a global empire, the country suffered from an island mentality. The fall of Oscar Wilde and his subsequent escape to Paris only added to a suspicion of all things French. Decadence itself had been a French import. The English, according to the painter and writer, Wyn...

The Edwardian period tends to get a bad rap - legitimately in the case of human zoos - but is there anything for which we ought to be grateful? Because of how it ended, with the carnage of the First World War, it’s easy to see the time as the quiet before the storm. But as we saw last episode, this was far from the case. There was rampant culture war, a crisis of confidence about the Empire and wh...

We tend to think of the Edwardian period as a dull interlude, where a complacent ruling class lazed away in blissful ignorance of what was coming: industrialised warfare and the dissolution of empire. In reality, this was a time of huge upheaval. There was the fight for Irish Home Rule, suffragism, socialism and vegetarianism. Telegraph cables stretched around the world. Darwinism had dealt creati...

When I first became a parent, I was undiagnosed, burnt out and overwhelmed. Now, ten years into my parenting journey, I've evolved into a confident, creative, joyful, parent, a transformation I couldn't have imagined a decade ago. Today I'm talking about my journey, what I've learned, and how I got here. Show notes, book recs, and transcript here: https://www.neurodiverging.com/how-im-thriving-as-...

Right at London’s centre is Trafalgar Square, presided over, from his column, by the wounded figure of Admiral Nelson. Running into the Square from the East is The Strand. It has been a thoroughfare since Roman times. Along with the trams and omnibuses, carts and cattle, walked our cast of mad, bad and brilliant thinkers whose ideas and energy helped to build the world we know today. Over the cour...

Today, we're happy to share an episode from Learn with Dr. Emily , where she interviews comedian and ADHDer, Penn Holderness. Enjoy! --- Growing up, Penn Holderness knew he was different than his friends. He had tics. He was called a spazz. He would cry really easily. In basketball practice, he would nearly chew through his shirt if he wasn't running around enough. If he was growing up in the 2020...
