"And I think the important thing that we understood that we have here. First, other players in the field, at least the main ones, they can't animate a single image. Not in a good quality. It's not so hard to animate a photo if it doesn't look good. But in high quality, there are no other players. So this is one. And we do both also the high quality and for one single image. But when you think about it, and we do it very fast. We do it we create it in 60 FPS. It's twice faster than real time. Now you start to understand, think about generative AI and about the conversational AI and what's happening with large language models. And genetic AI in general, the whole hypes with generative AI was the two main building blocks is a large language voltage, the GPT. And the photo generators, the daily two stable diffusion Imogen, et cetera. And we are exactly one above. We take the photos. Please those with humans. And with the characters and make them speak the text, we can convert them, transform them into a video. So once we understood that and that we can be the first ever generative AI platform that combines GPT, stable diffusion or some other we decided to use the stability AI. Plus our unique text to video solution, this can be something big. So we stopped everything super quickly connected, integrated these two. And launched that on product hand. We had to somehow tell the world that this amazing technology exists and it's an important building block of generative AI. And so we launched a product and it was a success. It was a good move and we won product of the day, product of the week, product of the month, and I see in the social networks, people really like the output. It really brings value to create those to companies. So yeah, come visit the studio. Yeah, people should check it out. And there's like anyone can use it. I think there's a free sign up to give them a bunch of tokens. So they can generate a few examples themselves and to give it a shot. You mentioned that it's fast. So there's two different things about fast, right? So you talked about 60 frames per second, which I think is uncommon. And I think a lot of the generations we're seeing out there are probably 30 frames. Per second. And or slower, okay? So in the 60 frames per second is important because it helps the movements look more natural and smooth. Is that correct? I think the important part here in first, no, it's not about that. It's about just the time that you need to wait until the result is ready. Oh, I see, so you're generating. You wait less. So if it's a if it's a video of ten minutes, so you will wait less than 5 minutes. If it's one minute you wait less than 30 seconds. But the important thing is not to prefer not to get into the details, but what it enables us to do now with our premium clients enterprise clients and soon with the rest of the world, which involves large language models and NLP in conversational AI, which. Might be like the next type of media of everything will be built on conversations and maybe the next TikTok will be something regarding the involved conversations. It's such a powerful tool. Yeah, don't want to get too much into the details, but they have amazing things coming..
Something Rhymes with Purple

"But anyway, the museum is so named because originally they were places dedicated to the muses, these 9 goddesses who were believed to inspire every bit of human learning. I hope that helps. It doesn't help its conclusive. It tells us everything we need to know. That's lovely. So whatever age you are, please keep the questions coming and the comments to its purple at something else dot com. And image and I would just say I'm very sorry about the dog's bollocks. Well, you shouldn't apologize to her. She's amused. It's her parents, who are saying what I'm doing, that it's a good thing for immigrants and listening to this, does she listen unsupervised or dear dad? Don't worry, Imogen. I think you can cope with whatever. That's the joy of language. It's rich. Oh, it is so rich. And also, I would just say you mentioned amused there just in case Imogen was wondering whether that is linked to a museum. Actually, that goes back to an old French word, meaning to stare, stupidly. And actually the first meanings of amuse were all to do with deceiving people rather than entertaining them. So that's got a slightly slightly different origin. But guess what? It is linked if you go back far enough to these ancient muses because the whole idea was that you were inspiring some kind of emotion and in this case it was basically an animation where you were a bit gullible and believe in things that you shouldn't. Well now we move to three words from Susie before you get two very short burns from me. What are your three words this week?.

"Arriving at a bus stop, and perhaps seeing a parent with a pram that they're trying to lift into the bus by themselves or they can't get in, you know, it's really quite typical behavior for us to then spontaneously join up with another passenger and sort of lift the prem into the bus, for instance. We do those kinds of collaborations all the time. So in that moment, we obviously do something we engage in an action that's not individually available to us assuming it's a very heavy prayer anyway. So we kind of already assume that others will copyright. We kind of adopt the group and the we perspective really readily and really easily, we can see this at when we perhaps go on camping trips together with others. Of course, not every group will be equally prone to be cooperative in the way that perhaps we individually are but there's often a kind of natural corporation that takes place around who does what and people help each other out. So that's my first response. I don't think we should overestimate the difficulty in switching because we already do that. There's nothing in what I'm saying that suggests that we are in any way only tendency reason in Imogen we need to do that. The other bit always, we need to always reason more and we mode. We already doing both. The other thing where I think your question is really relevant is to be aware that obviously the background conditions and circumstantial factors play a massive role in whether or not we will adopt the prospective of the group or reframe. And one particular example comes to mind and that's sort of the legal ramifications, for instance, we might be we might have situations where, for instance, some countries have a legal duty to rescue, for instance, where failure to provide assistance is a crime..

"Honey. He would he would he tweets about he told creeper up twitter. I had to look something up myself. Things may just hang on. I'm to just check rat. Yuccas zachary specifically like timing charts in there like how to give something punch or something impact and you know i can imagine him wanting to go back and say okay now. What was the spacing that i use before that was recommended by art. Babbitt or milk call is yeah. That's amazing thing to and maybe you could speak to this. A little bit is that richard was a consonant Like you said before. He always learning always asking questions of the great masters away before him. I try and tell my students all the time you know. We are on the shoulders of giants. You know acknowledged that enjoy that because we have given we've been giving great you know a rise up basically by all this dogs that came before Addict early on was huge. The as a child was like very influenced by milk. Call i know he was loved. Disney animation. Franken like you said particularly. Didn't he become kind of a an understudy or a student of milk. Call specifically yeah. I mean he never worked with mill and but they became great friends and famously Dick wrote a mill to fan listener. Antic this lovey. Studio in soho square in in london and milk was going on a fishing expedition. I he was a great fishermen fly fishermen and it was coming to london. The dick said you must come to the studio and as as some milt was walking through the studio dick got down on. his hands. Took his handkerchief foul. He published his shoes and and england and milt said something like him. I think it was something like you said. Oh you shouldn't be doing that. And then you say well maybe you should you know your automation ing so good looked up painting ridiculous down and oil painting and he said okay. You can stop polishing. He said you can draw. Yeah that's phrase rhino. I cannot imagine though you know. Everybody's i know 'cause one of those animation legends of course that if your student or if you're a veteran doesn't matter you see in appreciate the work that he's done and by all means probably the best of all the all the was that came through disney certainly as a designer so And i know that that richard was always you know a consummate professional seeking knowledge and stuff but he must've yeah you must've been Just a fan boy of stubby milt seines inada and the great scenes that melt dade and he was doing that. He did that in his eighties. You know he. I think i think the thing about the about dicky's that he wanted. He wanted to learn and he wanted. He wanted the media. As i said you wanted the medium to be as good as it possibly could be united So he wanted everyone to raise. You wanted to raise the ball for everybody you know and i. I'm interested to know what you guys. You're teaches what do you think the fall has been raised. You think that because of because of debt absolutely one hundred percent and you know. I don't know where we would be as an industry without You know i the nine man. Yes i think what they did. And of course you know Being published franken always book on the illusion. Life was was huge for our generation probably more than current generation. A what what dick is done in the end mater survival kit and just by here example. Just the fact that he didn't just talk about it but wasn't a very good draftsman wasn't very good animator. He talked about it because he could do it and he proved every time. That's why i think he's revered as the animators animators that he didn't just talk the talk. He walked the walk. And and like you said mo- i just it's so impressive to hear you say that in his eighties. He's still learning in his eighties. He was doing life drawing and make academy award winning animated short right and a can we just talk about prologue for seconds. Because oh my gosh. So prologue came out. What twenty sixteen. That's why you were at the academy awards and that's what that's how we met at that party. We started talking about earlier and That must've been one of the last hurrahs for for dick right to get out to the us. To see a lot of people. I would imagine his. It wasn't i you might have you guys might had another trip after that but Prologue is a phenomenal work And i do remember when we were emailing mo- about doing a podcast with with With richard on on for our podcast and also doing some at c. t. n. It was always well dick's right in the middle of prologue and he's gotta finish this thing and So i know it was like a lot of blood sweat and tears for him to make that short. What was that like for you Being alongside him helping him. You know supporting him. How what was your involvement on on prologue. And and just. How long was that in the works. Can you give us a little background. I mean i. I couldn't even begin to tell you how long i mean he did. Every i mean he. You know everything it was it was. He drew everything. I mean and and you know it was just one short so he so all the camera moves withdrawn. Yes so the it was literally. I mean it was it was something. He said he himself he wanted to do that. He wanted to do something that was one show. So there's no edits.

"The anger over the violation. Wow yeah for sure or sore so based on that you find yourself when you write something like the same especially when he put it out into the world you find yourself wanting them like hoping that they might just stumble upon it this personally toward the in any way or if you even made me think like this is for beta process. This i write for sleep for me to process things at the same time. I've had separate talk with this person to address this violation. And i appreciate it some of the ways to which he reacted to it. I do not appreciate some of the other ways that he not necessarily reacted to the talk necessarily but other elements of it is. Is this a little bit too conflicts to go into here. So i have very mixed feelings but you know to answer your question. More directly is that. This is something that i would be willing to read in front of that person So it's not something. I want them to stumble upon because until now it's not really put out there. Likely eat this in front of him. Speculatively i do it to create some distance between myself and what i'm actually thinking about. Maybe the jump started that train of thought. This poem came from that goal of not wanting to say the exact thing but the wanting to explore it in maybe express just in a less explicit way. What is speculation. That new for you. In this fall when i go into a poem i have no idea what i'm gonna end up writing and so with this particular poem the stroll through a stroke through hanging gardens. I do not realize that it was going to become this. You know so. I don't believe. I knew exactly at least during the first line because the third line already sets sets it up but the first mine is more out of the continual feelings i have because the prop was. Where would you want to be. So i think in writing out poetry sometimes than reading it and also having a discussion about it right now also makes me recognize the duality of my feelings. And and i think how like that's also present maybe to a less degree in your poem because you had already cut off your relationship with that person even though it's you haven't explicitly written down something until earlier this year. The fact is you have already done the actions to terminate the relationship whereas this is more like i am more interested in gaining better understanding of the person to see if they're willing to make changes to prevent these things from happening is just a tip of the iceberg kind of thing because when you're getting to know someone right again in a relationship where there's a possibility of things going on mutual. You know affection. Whatever ended a violation of trust happens. Then you always wonder or when you like when you become more mature and you've had some relationships under your belt especially with similar experience than your lake okay. How much of a warning sign is this. Is this person still worth might. Continue investment of feelings short fur for sure. I'm so happy to hear that. I'm not the only person who measures emotional commitment that way. I feel like i'm able to out there late or quantify how. I'm like emotional. Enter them putting into personal and try to calculate what they're putting in to me or have a negative relationship like give that i then i make comparisons. I'm glad things relationships that way. I think i think of it as being healthy for protecting your interviews report. Yeah yeah i think so you know. Obviously i think for both of us. The calculation is not done on a physical leisure mid is done as a reflection on and also based on our self respect and respect for our own time and energy right because we don't have an infinite amount of time we do not have an infinite amount of energy so to me especially given how busy i am. I want to be more conscious and be more self respectful in terms of how much i invest in certain relationships and absolutely and on the other hand you know the fact is the heart will just will not listen to the mine. In the specific way the heart will crush for however long it wants to crush so there is always some uncontrollable aspects to it. You'll feel that longing you feel that wanting things to work out especially things that appear in the beginning that workout and then when it doesn't work out you still hold onto that hope. Yeah cargo back to what you said about the body feeling. I feel like homes at all really writing especially about relating to be A special and access some. That's kind of taxing but really simple way to like you're saying a discovery or hope inclined to remember good things that you might have forgot and i think that oftentimes wheat bright from a place of pay or of ethic. That's where a lot of things start or sadness but the And i think it's really special thing to either find a rewriting or find a reason to hope you know Yeah yeah i use it. Hope it's very important right because we don't want to get corner into a place where we think okay. I'm never going to find the person that is right for me because the fact is there are so many choices out there. I mean it is just for a human being on an average lifespan. it is really an unlimited amount of choices. And so i think we should continue to explore and hope. Is that engine that runs stat. Continue exploration of what is possible. Who is out there. I hope people realize that they have an unlimited amount of choice and that if they run into a relationship where they feel like their boundaries violated and when they point out that fact is the person does not respond in the respectful way that you expect them to that people move on and people go spend their time finding better choices. Because as i said to a person with an average lifespan the choices are limitless. Absolutely apple probably. And it's a it's a really powerful important thing to set boundaries and.

"Arm morton's have been is already pretty private by deterrent became more private debt. And i just became even more careful about like sort of personnel. Give that to definitely made. Especially since i had been subdued pretty minor but definitely real homophobic in corporal. Violence what. I was younger but then i became constantly preoccupied with the potential violence. It felt really scary to come out because it was just opening up to more essentially and for a while. That was just something that i could have handled the stress of psychologically. By while at me like your. Yeah yeah understandable. I mean we. We all have to firstly protect our survival rate. Yeah absolutely absolutely also recognized that like i knew of violence and concerns violence come from a place of disability on the other side of that coin they absolutely confirmed places triplets Mad and i've been able to walk the world's until eighteen pretty comfortably. And and i think that something went to start dealing with trauma or a big theme was the. I felt very rob of on this sense of safety. I usually taken for granted. Andrew realized. I felt like i needed and so i didn't wanna give the whole reason. Time egoistic again is self preservation. But it's it's absolutely drama of it and how intense it felt. There was rooted in the fact that i felt very safe for a very long time since late. A dramatic loss. I guess yeah. Yeah i think at times voss and then also just felt like it really just all get dramatic shift. I didn't find myself really lamenting the satellite centre. Save but i definitely recognize. I'd had it as that. It was god. Yeah i think a lot of us have that experience when you know we have assumptions of all world because because of our past experience maybe we've been lucky and then that sentenced schiff realizing that actually people or environments that you think were safe. Is ashley not as safe as you think. Exactly it's a very hard thing. Yeah in the is. It just feels like the floor Collapses underneath you since you mentioned this anti semitic incident does part of your identity is also something that was subjected to violence. I don't i don't know if this is a real incident or something you've dreamt about okay in the dream. Having my head slammed into a locker in real life. I defected to other forms of violence. That were not as potentially damaging Locker they've that absolutely right. Did that also make you feel like you have lost a sense of safety or was it such a common occurrence that you're sort of psychologically more Well i would say a lot of the viruses. Jarvis subjected to i definitely could just happen again but a lot of the was during a certain period in middle school and for years middle school and in high school. When i think we're starting to move around the world a little bit more independently and seek e kind of becomes more rb concerns like if i'm going to volunteer somewhere and i'm just taking a train going somewhere. That's a sixteen year old definitely did Wasn't really happening anymore. So i would. I would say things have definitely had an impact on being and certainly back in high perceived as the cinch uh especially when i was in high school where a lot the terrell this relationship took place in and develop experts disorder. I didn't really. I don't i. Don't think those incidents affected me ask launch. Because they'd stop and because i was just a again it's the white van. I just didn't really have the sense that they would start again. I think people perceive me as clear but a lot of people just proceed airy heterosexual and that felt like it was caught a counterbalance to any. Here's the violence that already. Errands did not experience any anti semitic violence at all. i think. Yeah yeah unfortunately is on the rise again so we sure how recently this particular incident once. It's interesting because when you talk about post traumatic stress disorder especially given your intersectional identity. You always wonder how much of a contributing factor each facet of that is. Are you still friends with this person though. I've not yeah. I haven't spoken to them in probably six years. Have a festival but going back to what. You're saying intersex finale of trauma. I definitely think that for a lot. Twos and i'm starting to recognize that or more but certainly prolonged ourselves as a jewish person. Probably i don't know that i can accurately general is just popping up everywhere especially when start since i started paying attention to I think that there's a lot of underlying anxiety about violence targeted anti semitic violence which vote for seeing to a but even before those things and it just because of a hollow costs. I remember listening to an interview on mark barrett and jason alexander for stanford seinfeld barbarito. Like us are always ready to run.

"I read it in the green snake. Imagery was so prevalent in my mind. It reminded me of this phone. Call over the ben. Which i'm going to re now we can talk about it and i think as soon as i start reading it will become very clear. Wide chose this fall so over the band in the land of the emerald snake. We watched water serpentine along the bottom of sandstone walls. As lenses pointed more than is to proffer proof of marvel's beyond the imagination and the sun interfere with the task at hand after a few momentary imitations of statuettes pilgrims france across flaky jutting rocky plates recalling similar formations guarding central coast shores pleading the rims of the sheer drop landing on the body was beaches below that reached back from the river's edge to meet the vertical strike. Asians above like two lovers stretching to embrace. Can i say. I love all the crystal in reviewing. I'm like move by geology. Thole wretched earth day earth imagery ball above. Yeah yeah it is very much. Earth is a description of landscape so it is very rooted in the actual body of the little marble that we live on. I noticed that in. Also the serpentine energy. That that you were referencing to In semblance of my poetry. As well so i would like to know. Where air did this horn take place or what was was the space that was inspired principle. If it was visible i wrote this. When friends and i went to the horseshoe been. It's near the grand canyon. The kirk right. Yeah it was amazing and there. There is a river that runs through. You know how river basically carves all of our earthen space just like how what channels through us ray. And and it's just amazing. How the water from the top of poor. She'd been when you look down. It looks like there's at emerald snake. That's just slowly meandering through this canyon space. That's much smaller grand canyon contrast that beautiful emerald coloring the dark green with the sort of like the brighter green of the banks of the river and then also the red cliffs of the area. And the if you go further up you see the blue sky with some white clouds puffy clouds in whatever she wants to pick it it's beautiful it's just breathtakingly beautiful. I don't feel like. I did the picture justice but then i'm also talking about more how people interact with that beauty with that natural beauty. That's so difficult to capture. Yeah just. I'm like as i looking at the photographs. Hearing your description of the whole is. I don't know just makes the paul so much more rich because i feel like even just the curvature that the writing has taken a measure that was intentional yes but even curvature yes but curvature of the all those resembling that were she would love it. That's really gorgeous. This was my first visual poem or concrete poems and it was difficult to get the shape. I mean now i look back on it and i'm like are you could do better with that shape but i still. I still got the what. You're what you're doing. I think it didn't Help because walls in below are like those pilgrims right. The lovers stretching toward raise. I can be the kind of like the reaching with the way that you. It's thank you okay. So another question. Would you say that this power is purely or like some poems are are there too if placed in history and them or there may be something to be said about the reader within. Do you feel that. This poem is upon where you are. I guess snapshot of something that you wanted to hold i guess forever or would you say that. This is equal to inner sensibility. That you felt perhaps presently are at the time that you wrote it and feeling it does both and i feel like the aspect of revealing itself. I think that happens automatically because we as writers are writing a piece and no matter what it reflects back on us and maybe what we thought at the time. Maybe what. We feeling the time. So i wish to capture this moment. It's a recall. I didn't write a at the moment that i was there. I did write a soon after so. It's a recall poem. And i am trying to capture my words what i observed. Why was there at the same time. The unintentional effect is giving people a little bit of a view. Into how i view these things because as always you mentioned before i don't know if he might say this documentary work so within documentaries at even though the intention is to be objective and more journalistic might to not be there at least not show up in front of the lens. But how what you decide to show what ends up remaining in the film itself also shows the documentary makers i and sensibilities so no matter what. We're in it something that i'm feeling like. So strong with their on sometimes works point us two things about our world that we don't even know right so i feel like explicit phone bills channel like in the land of the emerald snake right and then i look. We're near the grand canyon winnie. People don't know their pyramids and the grand canyon is very very mystical and the space. This is just feels like it has a lot of secrets right and then back to emerald emerald off. The information of the land enrolled is one of the oldest stones it's in the breastplate of righteousness rights got all this floor of its strength in the land of the emerald snake. Right the land. Where where truth is is whipping and moving through the waters of fifty agent lance right. I don't know i'm just getting. I'm getting so as when i saw the photograph and hearing you read it and it's got so many chills just thinking are what can be gathered from that like the pentagon post listening to this. You know what their connections to that land or to these crystals ornament to the history of arizona..

Whatever that she could and then for her that was a giant pot of collard greens given ever mentioned in. Its willing to pace to homeless people you know. That was her showing up. Had nothing to do with what she believed in but like how she believed in in love you know that inspirers everything i do not on this. I want to be that person you can be around and feel gave you save blitz like you can say what you need to say for like when you listen to this person that you can receive something about also bill about was a reciprocal relationship because my grandmother was number like a meant to teach anyone anything you know but you always left blue something inch and she always would be very open to sneak. Whatever it was that you had weather was you know you want to say something or something. As she you know she was very receptive of of being able to change even in her old age. So that's something that. I try to carry in my work or what i do. Yeah well me. Nine years old is very young. Do you ever feel burdened. Less now than i did four. I'm an aquarius. So i still most aquarius space milford and with the knowing just knowing the lot of being very aware of everything just just as being aware of the light dark the and kind of not always having a space to be able to share that i felt i felt burden to have grown up in a very christian society and then buying so much receptivity and love in being someone who can see see light in all all versions of the truth moment. Like that You know there are. I don't see. I don't see any person's religion as as any story that is not right and i felt like that was something that my community didn't understand and and it's kinda hard to still be like. Yeah i'm i'm here with your love your i'm not trying to sway the children out of what we're doing but i also know what i know and i you know what i'm saying so i think they're they're Distance myself a little bit from the community that i grew up. I lived in the bay area. Now i don't go to church. I i church you know so. I think it's all about translating and not everyone in my family is ready to understand that translation and a whole graciousness that but now that i think i understand that a little bit more. It's easier for me to not fill burden. And i feel i feel actually really lucky. Only fortunate member might be able to think this way Yeah it's not easy. Because i think when you're coming from a place of understanding inclusivity were think every religion is just a different entry point but other people don't think of it at that do you think of it as the only entry point did it a little bit difficult conversation to hold you live when you grow up especially like baptists very much like it's just the way you know and can be kind of With people telling me openly that certain religions of people are bad. And i'm thinking didn't guard the slate. Everybody was joe who later interfering. We should love everybody. Rallying on say that my friend who wears this or wears a job at school should not have the same love and affection and attention of our guard. Doesn't make any sense. You know me growing. I've always trying to really live. People know there are like there's something about this that doesn't i don't know this execution execution of a little uncomfortable. Yeah yeah. I think people interpret signals from the universe in their own way and is not always. There's some noise and interference. Yeah that's all it is. I think that's what's making it here. silver is that you can love the interference from the noise and understand why poetry is really will because you can read a poem and it could be about whatever i can. I can make a poem about love light. And universe and how the cosmic cosmic stars are all part of our skin right and someone could seed something completely different. But that's what they needed to perceive. You know so. I think that's what i try to do. You know wherever wherever you're coming from lincoln still receive something at the end of the day. Napping nestle religion news release supposed to have been says point to a higher rail. That's artists access points. A transcendent know that work is being. does it harm. Yeah yeah and and not hopefully done not to the detriment of others which i find it especially ironic. Win is the religions of the book that are sort of lake targeting. Each other big. You worship the same god her. That's why i thought it was interesting. When you mentioned the other palm in the pack. I sent you about the. I think it was called tony church. My name and japanese demon but in our culture in means the sacred space. It's a whole area. Anytime ancient persia that is only ground space gray any west african culture that also means the goddess mother that the dead souls return to right so like ra at the same time on both the dark and the light in this space where people the plan that bone particularly people.

Just be new. Why are we going to humanize one person for having realized that before everyone else we know gert or having taken that step to just be okay with it and not run away from that darkness. Try smash it over the head yeah. I think it's difficult though. I think for anybody is very difficult to emit to Darkness within ourselves and how we're integrated the to The in a yang going. Back to that hutu mixed together not even like in the young is whereas so separate. It's not clearly delineated at all and that may negative traits could fuel positive effects It's just a matter of how you use certain things so very true shadow where it comes in the. It's all the process until people can emit to. it can recognize themselves house. There is always going to be a part of them. That's hidden right. So because i wasn't sure what the poem was about when.

"Attentions understanding generational traumas through the writing through. What comes of natch as i rise. Sometimes i'll right. And i won't even thinking of sex right but it will turn into an erotic on okay. Mind achey fair. What is what is that telling me about erotic. Would've telling me about human nature right and so now it's coming from more expanded outwardly. Expanded freckle view of. I'm in place instead of being reactive to type. i'm. I'm not sure that these two are separated. It's the lies very blurb between the two. Because i think one of the things that helps Oneself to understand something is to teach it to someone else because you have to. Have you feel early. A good teacher tried to prepare to be presenting material in a way that other people can understand in. so we're in the process. Do you think you are at. I'm definitely right now in our experience in a of allowing myself to experience into feel into learn the poem came from space. And time will i was. I was in college rights on my writing. My thesis is myself my whole four years of college for exploratory writing my culture and my generation will by my family. I did a lot of work into my caribbean and my southern side. Mom and did a lot of interviewing with my mother and my grandmother and it was coming from that space of just getting to know he or from where are very much so and so now that that bore his work has been laid out. It's more space to me. It open channel. That makes everything that i do. I see myself as my name secrets. Big straight now It names in means a place to comment yet. Res- i feel like my work for myself is to be able to be grounded enough to be at rest within my body so that when messages are coming to me i can not be mitigated by what experiences and allow myself to the teacher that makes sense. Yeah because i think you could be getting mixed messages if you are. If you're not in a grounded space and yeah given the fact that you got an award for people came in your family travel to the places the ceremony and that it was very big deal because the recognition you got. I was wondering what part does poetry clay in your life is poetry another professional avenue for you in conjunction when your business. That's something i've been really work. It's integrate actually at. I think it's really but we were having this conversation because there was definitely appointed time after college where i think i just need to experience and i was pushing myself too. I was thinking. Oh my gosh. I'm not meeting my own personal deadlines a getting another book. Doubt right because my my poetry that this the senior thesis is now sort of under the colleges library or whatever you know so. It's not in the place where i wanted to be. Necessarily i really have been kind. Bushing myself to limit create more. Let me create more so equally. So i can have more people see it you know and that's something that is in the works. I have a blog. Now has a lot of my work on it. But i'm working on incident scenes and ficials. Because i really want to express the spiritual aspect there light poles music but then sewed integrate the poetry as well in a way that can palatable and Let something that is is in my present right now But i've been using the poetry along to sort of help me with my definition learned that taro is so poetic. And that's why i gravitated towards it. When i do tarot readings i have the cards laid out before me and i will read them like poland literally right out the the insight right with the meeting of the old for the car and this actually is inspired by holiday eighty shockley and she has a book where she creates taro. Cards out of out of images of her neighborhood or black playing of just you know thyr hydrants bursting with water is different gorgeous images and she writes poems and creates her own sort of instrumentation for it and they really inspired me to do that with my work too. So i've been using the by. I guess let poetic voice over politic license to if insight when i do on by tall readings of howie been translating been practicing in keeping the the voice as i formulate how i would like a message to to be received right now Okay that's great that you are continuing with your poetic work and integrating that to your other work determination crystal were sounds like you have always been in touch have a sensitivity to it. In fact that it is something that's probably hereditary. But when did you decide to move into the sort of work spiritual regards fires providing spiritual weren. That's something that i feel like it's been like a very hereditary. Although my family has been deeply in christianity. I always see my grandmother's kitchen. Rich family on my mother's side is from the style of crew. Do magic in the south. So much energy there Feel this when my grandmother was alive. Your purse superstition of a thorough. The recipes that she would create when i'm looking into e foul of looking into a hutu or google tradition. I'm seeing the same recipes. I'm seeing the same herb. I'm seeing a lot of the same mantra prayers gray with five. Am in the morning chains getting up at the witching hour you know to to send out positive energy to her friends and family. I'm like how is that. Not magic how is that. Not spirit working through her in then not having nothing to do with the denomination. It's just the life work that she was doing. So i've just been inspire from my grandmother's life in when she asked i do feel like there was a transparent energy and responsibility. Mum i literally had a dream for asked. And i knew i knew the change pass from answer when i was nine years old and it happened over arab series of forty days of mike detector forty days so very biblical rights of already very like just interesting energy around her final hours button and that the final hours of after passage invisible in a dream it was completely white space. Just she and i there. And i could tell that she was giving me something as she was giving it to me. Her body disintegrated and completely disappear. Wake up like maybe moments after and by families in the living room they tell.

"Highly resonating with me. Bursa foremost because of not eating here of the lower than the emerald tablets ryan. So that's all about this. Ancient knowledge of everything and one is approachable to knowledge tatra sex right and creation for masculine and feminine create off. Everything in the universe in law is lives within the alert of masculine and feminine. Even though we are trying to understand in dismantle a massive human as far as how we've seen it in our patriarchal society. I think in the spirit realm and shows up everywhere. It's unique. I think when it comes to the green snake it's like there's the knowledge information as gang energy there's movement there is the earth in being connected to the the cardinals and then and also the cold ray ends of the taboo. The white snake. I feel this. The canes minds on the crown shocker for the third act doctors represented white or clear. Clear shimmering right i'm thinking crystal opal and this it and living at home. I felt a lot of times. I can't express a smartphone. Intellect myself self because i have two respects thirty thousand dollars with his house with religious beliefs. A cage in the garage right so it's in the dark it's shrouded it's locked up so that also kind of tied to our sexual understanding to like i feel like when we have we experienced chain where we have been told that parts of ourselves are bad or evil or dirty marina been ostracized because of your expiration be moved. Their time have been occupied because they live somewhere out of razor because they had sex before when they were married or whatever. These things were aren't even liking somewhat of the same gender young so a lot of or retreat reflects like my. We're nature as well. And so being a queer person. In a very christian household was not armitage left in owning and so that kind of white glimmering sneaker all these other glimmering aspects of myself that are also part of the subversive nature being hit ending luckily but So do you feel the in terms of relationship between these two snakes that the green one is more the body the earth as she said the physical manifestation and the white one is more the mental understanding the. Okay okay okay. I always wonder when poems involve other people if the poet has shown the poem to the person that day written abou- so even though this particular poem is not wholly about your mother so i was wondering if you've ever showed it to her refracted and it's really funny because this poem or if this series that the phone is a part of I got really high accolades or in college. Like like huge like like like things i didn't even expect would have been like i have. My name is on a black. As the first african american woman writer to get the certain type of accolade at this private white institution it comes olive so it keeps people flew out in money. It was a whole thing for these poems in most of which are hidden. Great my own. My son and i did a reading with the. My mom was even beer for the reading because she just was flying the second day. But you know. I don't think she's heard all of them and i'm not sure if she's heard unless you're he has he asked but it is also fairly sexual Keep the i tend to try to be respectful. What i hear what. I obviously mentioned my fingers. Being in in the wet rarely thursday slowing things. I haven't opened up to her. I guess our shared with her yet but we our relationship has changed since this whole was win. We'll say this hope was written in a time. When i was trying to find more freedom women my sexual self and just within my my mental self. This and i think he spoke on if this was a conversation in the reader as well or a conversation to the first of all about these poems felt like you're sitting in a bathroom right at school and you see these things written on the back of a wall and usually the things you see written professional or or there are things that are on remind right you need to find a space release in an only place you can you can say it is is in this anonymous way on this dirty bathroom door you know. That's that's the kind of energy these phones would have power. It's what if life for someone else to be able to appear in and see where they also have the same experience in kind of life. Yeh i'm here with you. You know it doesn't have to be a full conversation but it can't be like yeah. No i'm there too. And i've held that i know that feels like in a decade. Seen you here Yeah i think it's really interesting when you have an i do as well. There are poems that i've Partly due to language barriers as well never show my mom though we've had similar conversations in other ways so do you. Do you feel like through poetry. You are processing in some ways things that you cannot speak to other people about. I think that's what it's our office is interesting. You're kind of caught me at an interesting place with my poetry in a transition. I i felt a lot of my work was coming from where he confessional. Very secret space Because it was often times very erotic. Very much about the occult life a very much about channeled. Information that i felt at the time is not ready. It's not ready to be spoken about I wasn't ready. I think just needed to work on my confidence in my throat chakra But also i think just the space. I was in my spirit really really certain that this work needs to be expressed at a at a certain time and i feel where i am. Now how i'd do express more so from a state of this is what i am who i am. This is how my body operates through the matrix this time. This is what i'm receiving. This is what i need to get to you before it was kind of like. This is what i am. Why and how can. I explore that and through my exploration. Could i help other people than to locate in fines himself as well. It was more so from a place of of sort of like happens to you. Oh snap in the reaction in the confession of feelings and now i'm coming into a place though understanding inner standing and then wanting to offer something to people that they can have a conversation with with their own soul with their higher. So you feel like this particular poem is more about. Obviously you explain yourself and you try to understand that experience of becoming the it seems to me and then now your poems are more didactic in nature innocence. The athol.

"There's this office energy around new snakes in the house one of laying in my room and the snake in my room was green. The second stink was in the garage in that snake was white and silver and like magical looking and she said that the snake that was in the room was free on caged but just in the center for snake that was in the garage was case for this was the magical snake and that just had me thinking about snakes. Any no growing up in church thinking seen as demonic but up always been really drawn to the snake and so then this also connects to this natural youthful curiosity like the exploration episode in. This was something that i do. And i got caught often exploring myself or or having that private time so i interpreted myself as the snake. The snake is seen as the subject of subversive creature this creature that excludes zina's sexualizes demonic It is the thing that deterred eve from being in the garden of eden right my biblical connection to it but then is in my room. So am i that. Am i as this useful. Being cooped grew up in the church whose name literally means holy place. Doing something that my pastor would have thought you know unholy or unclean. But yet i'm enjoying myself you know i am understanding more about my body so it's sort of like exploring and subverting this. Yeah and in through my mother's perspective through her fear you know she's running to try to save me from these creatures that she dreamt about the niamh the creature the feared creature. Wow what does she think. The snakes meant. I'm not sure to be honest. I think my mom is is very tap. But she doesn't oftentimes acknowledging this hers of inset religious or the restriction think she'd probably belt that bat that sense of wanting to explore wanted to understand the cell wanting to tap into the taboo because perhaps thinking that was something that she also knew from her childhood or burn experience. So i kind of saw it as a self fulfilling prophecy or like you know our projection. You know if the thing that you perhaps seen yourself. Lee c. Or put her via other So yeah it could be a little bit of that. But that's just my own interpretation. But i think she oftentimes have dreams about things that i'm doing or if i'm in trouble or if i'm sick she'll feel and there's still a dream about it and so message or calling me like you know. Oh my gosh. She'll be freaking out laboratory. Or and then i read. This means that for me a little bit of that connection to occur in intuition in the end with like what's happening with me right. Yeah it's really interesting in terms of the poem in terms of the we talk about. What the green snake means. And that sort of like a personification of your self especially at your sexual exploration of the south. I was one ring in terms of the other snake to silver white. The one that's caged with your mom term the more magical one what that means to you and how you see.

"You remember what you wrote about your in your first poem. Unsleeping i poems. Where were all really secret. I as a child ahead of the very active soccer. I was very a i. Enjoyed and i was curious. about sex. So i would write about it. I write about before like or write about desire And i realized that a young age ahead of very advanced vocabulary and i was able to elaborate on topics that i didn't feel that my parents would be okay with so i didn't really share my poetry for a long time or i would only share it with my classmates or very few people so i think the first few poems i would've wrote would have been like love poems or Yeah just poems about guys. I liked him. Schooler boys went to kim's early early romance rain. If you like a lot of younger a raiders who started a young especially around teenage years they do tend to focus on the first crashes and you know we we all right about that and when i get into that hitting puberty that confusion of the hormones flooding our bodies and this changing and being lake. I just got used to this body. What is going on stage thinking back on. It's kind of a really beautiful time period because everything is so fresh right. Moitri at the time is also inviting. The freshman is so curiosity. I think it can. it's on. it's a very press this time for that kind of poetry especially the age where I think you are pushed to be over sexual hours. And we've forget the romance materials the the nature of the naturally of in life. And i think that when. I when i look back on those combs do appreciate them for me being able to seize that aspect for me so i started really watching tv and that into you know the matrix of it all and started to lose my innocence. I think in that sense. But i i was just as were talking about thought When i did start sharing my poetry was in church. No if you can imagine how how odd it would be. My whole family knows. Oh she's a writer university writer sharing your poetry. You have something. And so. I have to write a whole new church appropriate. Viable themed chirped appropriate along with like scripture references. Even though in my mind. I'm like oh my guys see what actually been writing on. Y'all not have on the pulpit. That's one of the poems. I don't know how early you wrote that poem but one of the poems you send me in your packet references of it almost felt like a sort of you confessing to What you feel about the relationship between you in church is a really interesting pong.

It's gleaming other boasting a proud and silvery white. The creatures ride like water in the center of my bedroom. The usual fear had escaped her. She explained when she fell into the gaze of the beasts. Her lips parted though when she thought to speak. The eyes of her body in real time snapped open. She left from her bed and ran sleep rhythm to find me writhing undulating till celebrations still in my uniform from school. Like water geyser stream two fingers gleaming wet peering into pink thank you. I think i read this poem with come to think of. I can't remember exactly what i thought. But given what you just told us. I think i have a better idea of what this poem is about. But instead of me trying to interpret. Since i have the author here i'm just going to ask you. What is the poem about. Effort is really interesting. You pick the flint because this poem is part of a series that i wrote For my college thesis and it was mythic autobiographical sort of ethnology.

Elevate: The Official Podcast of Elite Agent Magazine
Interview With Imogen Callister
"Today i'm joined by. In calcutta aka k- the media coach after korea to spend journalism real estate operations and a position is branding and marketing specialist at rei imaging now ex with businesses and individuals to help build their brand online. Emmy can you. You can call me. Whatever you like. But miceli i get codeine. Welcome to the show. Thank thank you so much for having me. It's an on obviously debate here on your incredible podcast. Awesome for you to be. He and the media coach is relatively new venture for you. Yeah which you started in january. The she so tell us a bit about it. So look i guess my passion really stems by two ways. One my love of real estate but predominantly my background's journalism media and marketing and it's really blending. Those two worlds together and being an agent is a unique job sam. Every day they have to apply for a new job like imagine that world. It's not easy and you've constantly go to be out there prospecting for new clients and it's my job to help my clients build a personal brand that people want to connect with an also build world-class campaigns in social media marketing and digital online presence to really help them connect with more sellers out there in the marketplace. And it's hard to believe but a lot of people we pick up the fire in one hundred times a day. We make all these goals but you forget like our mobiles right in our hands and everybody fact checks everything now. In fact seventy percent of all sellers will look you up before making a decision on you as an agent so the media coverage was kind of founded on my true passion of helping agents and look like many people. It's been a challenge with covid. I've just had just the best journey. And i really. I'm sorry lucky. I get to wake up every day and leave my passion and my dream and help agents and with some of the top performers in the country. Now so i just feel like it's it's an absolute honor to really work in that position. I mean you've done raising job. So far and really covered as proven agents need to start acting like media companies themselves anyway. So it's great that they've got someone like you to help them along and i think covert is really sorta taught agents viva lesson in terms of you. Don't take back the narrative in the only thing that people here out there is the mainstream media which is obviously always the right. Listen and the thing is think the hardest part for agencies the first question is they say. I don't know what to post because everyone cares about what other people think. And that's human nature satellite. Go onto worried about pricing. I don't know what to post. And i don't know what to say in my purse. That builds brand attraction will makes the whole world of social media like a photo. I mean even though that's not really relevant now likes going on social media where like inist rally aware actually the only place in the world currently with no likes on facebook and instagram. Like if going to the states while that movements coming through so for an aging. It's really breaking down those barriers of understanding that innate to master paid and an own media strategy into their brand so an own media strategy is how they channels look facebook. Instagram linked in google business. What i call like. They pass active brands. They passive brandies lack. They google they look on google. What serves into that brand and making sure that spoiled class when people are typing and then they've got their active brand for their own channels. So that instagram you know. Everyone wants to be into famous. In fact he mcallister of locked you. You know that whole own media channel like may that content pressure now is that then for an agent you really need to look at. How do you create writing fans in your marketplace. Like it's been around for years these idea that other people generate leads into your business but it's gone blown up into the online world now a carry and how it's blowing up. He's all these online reviews and always online review platforms and it's breaking down that disruption for them so they know where to build reviews in brand it gets the more kind of licencees and the last thing i guess formulating strategy for agents now is a lot of people sam. They say to me all you know. I've tried social media before. And i say okay. What have you done that. I'll put up a video. I k and did you do that once. Yup yup. that didn't do anything sat. And it's kind of like you need to understand that ninety. Seven percent of revenue on facebook is made by digital advertising.

Cannabis in Canada: Who wins and who loses under new law
"Job must have picked up. Quite an exciting time to be cannabis lawyer in Canada, though I suspect that you to like the dogs will be finding less work coming. You away what's happening. Well, we'll see what happens. There are forty five offenses in the new cannabis act. So I imagine there will still be worked for criminal lawyers with respect to drug sniffing dogs. I would say that these dogs it was they were never a big deal and never a big part of Canadian policing. You'll see them at the border. So these are these. These dogs will actually be out of work, come legalization in Canada, although their role was limited to begin with. Limited, but this was a job for life. If you're a Canadian sniffer Doke because from from what from from this time of being a pup, you'll knows was trained to track cannabis. Yeah, and it. It can bring issues with respect to reasonable grounds. So if an officer believes you have cannabis that's actually lawful, it's lawful to carry up to thirty grams of cannabis on your person. So sniffer dog detects lawful cannabis, but then the officer finds something that's not cannabis, but is he legal Imogen? There will be challenges in court. So that could be the reason why the are taking sniffer dogs into retirement in some police forces across Canada. So there's no possibility. I'm no dog training expert at, but is it possible to their? I teach an old kind of sniffing dog new tricks. From from what I've read. That's that's not possible. Once they've discovered the smell of cannabis, they know what it is. So certainly having them on on staff could present some problems, some court challenges if someone is charged with another offense and what led to that was reasonable grounds to believe the personnel cannabis and cannabis is legal. That's going to bring some issues into the court could be simply a dog thinks it's suppose cannabis. The individually stopped in such dilemma for whatever reason, enough evidence of another crime images does that affect Tivoli, throw the judicial process out of the window simply because this pull Doug smelt something that he or she shouldn't have done. Sure. So it doesn't automatically take the evidence out of the case as it would in the United States, but you can file a motion to have the evidence scrapped from the case and not say decision that the judge will make taking into account different factors, including whether it would bring the Justice, the system of Justice into disrepute, if the evidence was not allowed in Jordan cannabis lawyer, thank you for joining us a man like to be quite busy in the next few weeks.
