Going for a song: My Eureka moment

Going for a song: My Eureka moment

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1945222/fan_mail/new] Over the course of many years, I had probably over quoted the story about Archimedes and his moment of discovery which has become known as the Eureka phenomenon. As it gets taught in universities around the world, Archimedes discovered his famous principle while in his bath prompting him to leap out and run through the streets of Athens crying something loosely transliterated into English as Eureka, that is to say ‘I’ve found it’.

Today is my example of a eureka moment which I offer as a replacement for some of the overused examples. * Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!  * Email everydaycreativityuk@gmail.com to sign up! * Follow Tudor on Twitter @Tudortweet * Follow Tudor's blogs: * everydaycreativity.uk * leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com

Question Time. A gruesome disappointment

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1945222/fan_mail/new] I’m still getting my head around what I witnessed watching Question Time, yesterday evening. I was attracted to the idea of the programme with the leading candidates in the Makerfield by-election.  Some years ago, I enjoyed Question Time,  when it permitted intelligent debate between guests with interventions from the audience. This seemed to change with the departure of the authoritative but skilfully impartial chairmanship at the time, by Robin Day and his successor David Dimbleby… * Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!  * Email everydaycreativityuk@gmail.com to sign up! * Follow Tudor on Twitter @Tudortweet * Follow Tudor's blogs: * everydaycreativity.uk * leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com

Can you copywrite a sound?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1945222/fan_mail/new] The question of copyright has become a hot issue with the rise of creative products assisted by artificial intelligence systems. I started thinking about this recently with a specific case example. It cropped up the work directed by Jonathan Levitt in  producing a wide range of songs supported by his lyric writers, including myself, with Stephen Tranter, and a range of distinguished poets whose work has passed beyond the limit of copyright legislation. * Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!  * Email everydaycreativityuk@gmail.com to sign up! * Follow Tudor on Twitter @Tudortweet * Follow Tudor's blogs: * everydaycreativity.uk * leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com

How to spot the Traitor

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1945222/fan_mail/new] How to spot a traitor This audio Post was triggered by the timing of my return from a visit to my tennis club every Saturday morning. I still enjoy listening to radio five for the sports programs. On Saturdays, there is a problem called ‘spot the traitor’. It involves three football fans, each eulogising on the football team. However, one of the fans is fake, a traitor if you like. I understand spotting a traitor has become a National TV pastime. thanks to another program. Listening week after week, I began to see the ways in which a guest of the program attempts to identify the traitor, after listening to brief statements from each of the would be authentic fans… * Stay up-to-date with all of Tudor's podcasts, blogs and current affairs commentary by signing up to our newsletter!  * Email everydaycreativityuk@gmail.com to sign up! * Follow Tudor on Twitter @Tudortweet * Follow Tudor's blogs: * everydaycreativity.uk * leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com
