About this listen
Watched: Poems contains a collection of poems that dives into the Big Brother ethos of the 21st century. It seems like there are surveillance cameras everywhere. People are being monitored in subway (underground) stations, public buildings, university lecture buildings, and God-knows-where. David Paul Folyant expertly captures the spirit of fear that results from such an environment. Folyant further pushes the envelop to ponder the possible consequences of today's surveillance culture. Who benefits? Who loses? What are the motivations behind it all? This collection poems truly speaks to the spirit of the age. Many who read it will find much to relate to. This audiobook of poetry will be excellent for poetry groups and discussion groups (and courses) on modern culture and present society. This audiobook can also serve to encourage family discussions on today's cultural environment.

Right from the start, Bigger Thomas had been headed for jail. It could have been for assault or petty larceny; by chance, it was for murder and rape. Native Son tells the story of this young black man caught in a downward spiral after he kills a young white woman in a brief moment of panic. Set in Chicago in the 1930s, Richard Wright's powerful novel is an unsparing reflection on the poverty and feelings of hopelessness experienced by people in inner cities across the country and of what it means to be black in America.

The rules for living in the real world have changed, because the world we live in has changed. Much of the conventional wisdom the last generation has passed on just doesn't apply like it once did. If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.

Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does Intelligence frequently get it so wrong? The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define the way that AI works and the processed information reflects an imperfect world.

We often complain about our fractured mental lives and feel beset by outside forces that destroy our focus and disrupt our peace of mind. Any defense against this, Crawford argues, requires that we reckon with the way attention sculpts the self. Crawford investigates the intense focus of ice hockey players and short-order chefs, the quasi-autistic behavior of gambling addicts, the familiar hassles of daily life, and the deep, slow craft of building pipe organs.

Intuition is the ability to understand something instantly, without the need for conscious reasoning. The dictionary lists these synonyms: hunch, foreknowledge, inspiration, perceptivity, premonition, presentiment, gut feeling, innate knowledge, insight. It also lists the following synonyms, although these are actually different than intuition: clairvoyance, second sight, sixth sense, discernment, gut feeling, and instinct.

alaxy. Humanity was slowly making their way out from Earth to the planets and asteroids of the Solar System, exploring and mining and founding colonies. The mining ship El Cavador is far out from Earth, in the deeps of the Kuiper Belt, beyond Pluto. Other mining ships, and the families that live on them, are few and far between this far out. So when El Cavador's telescopes pick up a fast-moving object coming in-system, it's hard to know what to make of it. It's massive and moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light.

The youth today have been forced into a funnel, focusing on sports and music as their only way to success. When those dreams are shattered, they can lose hope and never dream again. They might find themselves settling for what is, instead of striving for what could be. If you aren’t moving forward, then you are going to be stuck in the corporate cycle of servitude. Big corporations want an endless supply of cheap labor. I want to show the rising stars of the future that they can build their own path and reach freedom.

It is one of the enduring enigmas of the human experience: many of our most iconic, creative endeavors - from Nobel Prize-winning discoveries to entrepreneurial inventions and works in the arts - are not achievements but conversions, corrections after failed attempts. The gift of failure is a riddle. Like the number zero, it will always be both a void and the start of infinite possibility. The Rise - a soulful celebration of the determination and courage of the human spirit - makes the case that many of our greatest triumphs come from understanding the importance of this mystery.
