MASH Podcast: Indian Art History - Episode One: The Magical Prehistoric Art of India

Episode 1 takes the listeners to the magical cave art of our prehistoric folk. Cave paintings are openings to our understanding of our current day ritualistic practices through those that existed 10,000 years ago. Many stories will unfold through the first pieces of art ever created within the modern day Indian subcontinent. You will be surprised to know that we are not very different from our prehistoric ancestors, when it comes to preserving our well being. The Indian Art History series is hosted by Ayushi Chaurasia, an archivist and a collagist.

The Pleistocene Era and the Jōmon Period

We begin 35,000 years ago with the earliest known humans who lived on Japan, the paleolithic hunter-gatherers, followed by the semi-sedentary Jōmon people. Little is known for certain about either group, but I try to construct a basic outline for what their lives would have been like.

Palaeontology

Palaeontology is the study of the history of life on Earth through fossils, a fascinating branch of science that enhances our understanding of extinction, biodiversity, evolution and preservation, and how to respond to climate change.

Professor Kate Trinajstic is a vertebrate palaeontologist and Curtin Research Fellow, who specialises in armoured prehistoric fish. Her work focuses on how early vertebrates evolved an internal skeleton and complex musculature, how lungs developed, and how teeth and jaws evolved.

She is accomplished in a variety of micro-analytical techniques, including synchrotron and neutron scanning of fossil materials, which have opened up exciting new avenues for non-destructive investigations of the structure of fossils.

Her primary field work is in the Kimberley region of Western Australia at the world-famous Gogo fossil site, which was once an ancient barrier reef teeming with fish.

In this episode, Professor Trinajstic discusses how palaeontology can inform our response to climate change, how she uncovers and analyses fossils, her fieldwork at the Gogo fossil site and the discovery she made that reset the evolutionary calendar.

Preview of some of Path of Titans music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWAQ3mztRdQ Here are some questions that were sent to us via email at https://podcast.alderongames.com/contact UpFromTheDepths asks: What influenced you to get into sound design and music composing, and are there any inspirations for the music you've created/plan on creating in the future? SeeRgii KTO asks: Hello everyone! First of all, incredible job Valtiel, I love every single sound and track of this game. My question is, how much time do you spend for lets say, the Laten broadcast? And what software do you use? TundraHunter asks: Will there be a 'main theme' to represent Path of Titans (an iconic melody that may also be included in different tracks)? Also, are you focusing only on tribal music, or will there be other genres as well? Milly asks: How did you come up with the idea for the soundtrack? Has there been any certain inspiration for it? rookrabbit asks: What are your favourite inspirations for calls? Sebastian Sanchez asks: Regarding dinosaur calls, what are some of them inspired by? I am especially curious about Concavenator's calls, as I was one of the donators! Mad and Melony Fan ask: What did you use to make the Spinosaurus calls? Alex Gibb asks: What are the possibilities of using Cassowary calls for one of the dinosaurs? I feel like the Cassowary has very distinct, dinosaur-like calls that would fit well on a carnivore. AnonMax and rookrabbit ask: Which call was the hardest to figure out? The easiest? Milly asks: What are the plans concerning environmental sounds? Are you planning on adding particular sounds that you redeem fitting for the roaming times of the dinosaurs? Eg. certain species of birds, small flyers etc. If so what would they sound like? Ty Anderson asks: Will it be possible to make mods to add or change dinosaur calls?

Episode 2: New Team Members

*This is episode two, recorded on October 11th, 2019. * Hosted by Jiggy the art lead, and Deathlyrage, the lead programmer. We’re both part of the Alderon Games Team, and we’re working on a variety of different games. Our primary focus right now is working on Path of Titans, a dinosaur MMO survival video game. In this show we talk about Path of Titans development, and also touch upon the daily life and struggles of being part of an indie video game dev team. The Path of Titans demo is currently available and you can access it if you’ve bought the game or higher from our store at https://alderongames.com/store/path-of-titans.

Summary: Introduce our new team members Wind and environment detail New skins Translation and regional pricing QnA Gary the squirrel: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/537375837750820884/632089545353068554/unknown.png Video of Gary the squirrel: https://www.instagram.com/p/B3c1e6Llwk6/ Here are some questions that were sent to us via email at https://podcast.alderongames.com/contact JiggyIsAwesome asks Will there be corpse dragging, and pouncing? Maybe even charging for like pachycephalosaurus? It'd be pretty cool if a pterosaur could snatch prey while flying as well. Amanda asks Will there be a map in-game so that we can navigate easier through the world? Fierysmaug asks When you add wind in the game, will the Grass and trees move in the same Direction as the wind? same as Rain? and if it Rains, will there be Puddles arround with water, and is your dino getting a 'wet' look Ghost asks My question today is about what you'd like to do with the fish AI reactions. Is the end goal to have the fish react dynamically and try to move away from approaching predators or potential threats in the water, or more to have them static and moving in some set pattern regardless of who's on the shore bank or wading through? Lumine asks Will everyone be able to create mods or will only certain people? Vividsky asks How much control do you intend to have over mods? for example if people started modding in ww2 tanks for example would that be too far away from the game to be allowed to be modded in? Sergi asks Do you have any plans on making a custom skin system, where we can create our own skins and them get them confirmed to be able to use them or something similar to that? thehollyraven asks Will we ever get skins that are like, say, birds of paradise or brightly colored birds in general for Laten/Deino/Achillo/Any Other Bird-like Dino?

Summary: * Kentrosaurus has been completed. * The AI demo and feedback we got from the AI demo. * Mobile version Demo? * Day/Night cycle demo released and why it’s brighter at night Here are some questions that were sent to us via email at https://podcast.alderongames.com/contact Milly asks What got you into Game-developing and how/when did you start out? Niko asks Will you have an aging method in your game? How will it work during the gameplay if there is one? Lissidragon asks Will the Spinosaurus be a quadrupled? It would be awesome to see a game have this take. Perhaps even having the bipedal as another kind to play. RedRodine asks What's the most difficult part in making path of titans so far? Poncho asks What do the dino collisions really entail in the game for those of us unaware? How will dino collisions be useful in combat scenarios or in just the average scenario? MrDoll asks Will there be collision and trample damage? Mighty Mercer asks Hey there, I was wondering how progress for consoles is going, I know ya cant share massive details or most info yet but even a little tease would do. Also is there anything that the supporters can do? Or is it just a waiting game for now? Infa32 asks Are you possibly going to add functionality for lower specs computers for the early access version of PoT, or is that just for the finalized version? Alyrius asks How much can be said of the combat system? It is certainly one of the more difficult sides of the game to work on and still one of the most vital ones. What kind of combat system is planned? And what will attacks look like? Nick asks How do you guys plan on keeping all the dinosaurs balanced- no matter what animal they are or how long they've been playing? Stagiaire asks What has been you first difficulty on the project ? What has been the biggest difficulty yet ? How many hours do you work on it each day ? What's your favorite dino in the roster for each of you ? How did you feel when the Indiegogo campaign and Alderon Game store reach this crazy amount ? Does Jiggy eat peach everyday ?

Summer Solstice at America's Stonehenge and Serpent Mound

JEFF WILSON, DENNIS STONE and HAYLEY RAMSEY join us to discuss the summer solstice at Ohio's SERPENT MOUND and AMERICA'S STONEHENGE. We will be focusing on the archaeoastronomy of both sites and what the summer solstice meant to these ancient peoples. Both sites will be open on this holiday for observations. At both locations, there is snake imagery. We will hear from the experts what role the snake played in these cultures. America's Stonehenge is best known for the enigmatic stone chambers, but there are also serpentine walls. There are also several snake effigies in the Ohio Valley. We will be putting this info into its prehistoric context.

Grand Canyon Caverns

If you were looking for somewhere that you could arrive in your private plane or helicopter, stay in an RV one night, a motel the next, enjoy some great food, visit some dinosaurs, have a glass of wine or beer in a prehistoric cave, some more good food and delicious giant pies, hunt some ghosts, then finish off the last night sleeping in one of the worlds most unique hotel rooms 220 feet under the ground? Stop searching because we found the only place where you can experience all this and more, its the Grand Canyon Caverns in Peach Springs, Arizona. This world class attraction is located off the Historic Route 66, one hour west of Williams and an hour or so south of the Grand Canyons south rim. We had the privilege of sitting down with John McEnulty, Partner Grand Canyon Caverns, to hear the story of the caverns. We enjoyed the hospitality of John and his staff as we toured the property above and below ground. While sharing a meal with John we learned some history of the cavern, how it came into being, along with the features and improvements that have been added since John and his partners obtained ownership. After our time with John we took a tour of the amazing underground caverns complete with bar, hotel room, and fallout shelter. Yes a fallout shelter, in the event of doomsday above ground you’ll be equipped with enough supplies for you and 2000 of your closest friends to survive for weeks underground. So enjoy this episode and be sure to check out the cavern grounds on your next trip down Route 66. You will not be disappointed. Special Guest: John McEnulty.
