When the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus—back after a six-year absence—begins its 50-city tour of North America this September, it will include 75 highly trained performers and a litany of extravagant acts. Tightrope walkers will flit across a triangular rope, 30 feet in the air. Acrobats will launch themselves between four spinning wheels suspended from stadium ceilings. BMX bikers will spring off a giant trampoline. And a 360-degree set studded with massive video screens and enhanced with sonic spatial technology will envelop audiences in the spectacle. There won’t, however, be any lions, tigers, or bears. Oh my! “When you have a brand called ‘The Greatest Show on Earth,’ you can’t downscale,” says Juliette Feld Grossman, chief operating officer at Feld Entertainment, which acquired the iconic circus in 1984. “You really have to reimagine and reinvent.” Founded in 1871, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus delighted American families … [Read more...] about The Greatest Show on Earth gets a second chance

We’ve selected the firms making the biggest impact across 54 categories, including advertising , beauty , design , and more. In this age of tumult, the world needs more than pretty buildings. The architects, designers, and firms in this year’s list of Most Innovative Companies are designing beautiful things, to be sure, but they are also thinking bigger and deeper about the production, the impacts, and the future of what they’ve designed. This year’s winning firm, 3XN , has created what could be a model-setting project: an office tower built mostly from the bones of the aging building it’s replaced. The approach not only slashed the building’s environmental impact, it demonstrated that creative, new designs don’t always need blank slates—or new construction! Other companies in this year’s list, such as Carmody Groarke and … [Read more...] about The 10 most innovative companies in architecture for 2023

Valve is No. 37 on Fast Company’s list of the World’s 50 Most Innovative Companies of 2023 . Explore the full list of companies that are reshaping industries and culture. Valve’s Steam Deck is more than just a beefed-up Nintendo Switch alternative. It’s also a counterpoint to the closed platforms that have come to define modern consumer electronics, and a way to upend traditional consoles by making PC gaming more accessible. The handheld costs more than a Switch at $399, but it’s better-equipped to play the latest games at higher quality, and it draws on Valve’s wildly popular PC storefront to offer a vast game selection. Even so, Valve doesn’t limit users to the Steam catalog. Through a built-in Linux-based desktop mode, the Steam Deck supports installing all kinds of other applications, from web browsers and classic emulators to such rival game marketplaces as the Epic Games Store. Users can also tweak the system’s theme, sounds, and boot-up animations, and they … [Read more...] about Valve’s Steam Deck is letting gamers hold the future of open platforms in their hands

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin When you think of beauty pageants, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Probably not academia, social responsibility or sustainable finance. Dr Ana Nacvalovaite, Research fellow at Kellogg College, University of Oxford, says otherwise. Aside from being a distinguished academic and renowned expert within her field of work, Ana is also Mrs Great Britain, and will soon be competing in the semi-finals for “Mrs Globe”. At first it may seem like a contradiction, but for Ana, the world of pageants and academia intersect in several ways. “Beauty pageants have given me a platform to promote social and environmental issues that are important to me, such as gender equality, human rights, and sustainability. It has given me a stage to speak” she tells me. “As an academic, I'm passionate about promoting social responsibility and sustainability and all aspects of society. So, my involvement in the beauty pageant has given … [Read more...] about Beauty Pageants And Academia – The Perfect Contradiction?

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Across two beta weekends now, I’ve been dealing with a good amount of technical frustration with Diablo 4, a game I otherwise very much like . While I know “it’s a beta,” and Blizzard has said outright that there will be long lines and disconnects as they try to gather data for a smooth launch…I am not convinced this is going to be a smooth launch. It’s less than three months away now, and I very much don’t believe that Blizzard will be able to keep up with the tidal wave of players who arrive at launch, and that we will endure a fairly long period of problems. I think the best case scenario right now is to avoid something utterly devastating like Diablo 3’s Error 37 launch, but I still don’t think it’s going to go great. What’s been happening? For large chunks of the weekends, particularly during peak times, login queues have been extraordinarily long, usually 30-60 minutes, but sometimes as long as two hours. But it’s … [Read more...] about The ‘Diablo 4’ Beta Does Not Inspire Hope For A Smooth Launch
