Fascinating interview with Michael Prime, bioelectrical composer, filmmaker, botanist, ecologist.
We take a walk around his unique gardens on Cape Clear Island. Here he has collected and nurtured plants from all over the world, often now endangered in their natural habitats. Michael is of course also well known for his long and successful musical career and we aim to analyse the cross fertilisation between these two deep passions of his.
Since 1987, he has used of bioactivity translators to amplify the electrical activity of plants and fungi. This has been central to much of his work. Through the medium of sound, listeners are able to enter and interact with the transient world of plant reactions.

Ambre Soubiran, CEO of Kaiko, joins the show this week to talk about how the pioneers of crypto and blockchain laid the foundation for the transformation of capital markets, Kaiko's role beyond crypto as a financial market data provider…and the best route for sailing across the Atlantic!
This episode is kindly sponsored by Ireland's fintech and financial services recruitment specialists, Top Tier Recruitment. If you would like an intro to the team at Top Tier Recruitment, please click here.
For more episodes and our entire back catalogue of show notes go to MoneyNeverSleeps.ie.
For insights delivered to your inbox beyond the spoken word, subscribe to our MoneyNeverSleeps newsletter right here on Substack.
Kaiko was founded in 2014 and is now a market data provider in the blockchain-based digital assets space, providing institutional investors and market participants with enterprise-gradedata infrastructure. In this episode, Ambre talks through the intersection and merging of Kaiko's story with her personal story – see below for some of the best soundbites:
On her entry point to the crypto and blockchain space: "In 2012, for me, it was a refreshing new venture, I was going to these really random bitcoin meetups in these underground venues on Brick Lane in London, it was really sketchy at the time, but in a good way. It was really smart people that were inspired and changing the world and doing so in a technological and mathematical way that were really close to my heart."
On thinking about crypto differently: "Bitcoin is very often perceived as a "crypto-anarchist revolutionary-against-institutions" mindset, which is indeed the genesis of it, but not everyone is like that, and I think it was more about challenging the status quo and re-thinking the notions of money, and that's what I really liked about those meetups.”
On dispelling market rhetoric: “Banks definitely don’t ignore blockchain anymore, but I was trying to push it at a time when they weren’t ready for it yet. But the "blockchain-good-crypto-bad" mindset frustrates me a little bit, because what makes a blockchain work are the consensus and incentivization mechanism.
If you don't have a unit of value, i.e., a cryptocurrency or token, that incentivizes people to maintain the network in a decentralised way tied to a blockchain, you’re missing out on the main points of what makes a blockchain work.”
On knowing your target investors: “If you're a founder in the blockchain or crypto space, and you have to spend the first 15 minutes of a 30-minute pitch to a VC explaining blockchain and crypto, you're in the wrong meeting.”
On the capital markets: “The capital markets industry is definitely less creative than it used to be, and that's one of the things that drove me to crypto is that there's still so much room to build.”

We interviewed Grainne O Keefe the new CEO of the Ludgate digital hub in Skibbereen for our podcast show to discover her insights into the growing network of Irish digital hubs. We also covered adapting your business model during a global pandemic, and how the future could be bright for rural and remote Irish digital hubs, both in West Cork and beyond.
Grainne joined Ludgate in Skibbereen as CEO in July 2020. She brings with her a wealth of international management experience spanning 20 years in locations as diverse as London, Tokyo, New York and Skibbereen.
Most recently Grainne spent a number of years with Spearline as Head of Innovation and while delighted to be back in her home town of Skibbereen continuing her career trajectory her journey before this is reflective of a large number of our graduates in the area. She graduated from UCC with a BCL in 1993 and then went on to complete an MBS at the Michael Smurfit Graduate School of Business, UCD, in 1995.
From there she joined Bank Of Ireland's Graduate Programme and spent 18 months in Jersey, Channel Islands before moving to London to join JP Morgan in 1998 and subsequently Goldman Sachs in 2003. These organisations enabled global mobility + career expansion spanning London, Tokyo and New York providing Grainne with extensive managerial and strategic roles across global teams.
In 2013 Grainne returned to West Cork to ensure her children could benefit from a childhood in West Cork. Her main priority with Ludgate will be to continue the strategic goal of job creation in the rural area ensuring future generations have the option to pursue interesting and challenging careers without the need to leave. Ludgate offers that path to the people of West Cork.

Bio: Ben Goertzel is a leading world recognised authority in artificial intelligence research, inventor and serial entrepreneur. Ben is a deep thinker and also a man of action as the founder and CEO of SingularityNET, the Chairman of OpenCog Foundation, the Chairman of Artificial General Intelligence Society, the Chief Scientist of Mozi Health and Vice Chairman Humanity+ Goertzel is the chief scientist and chairman of AI software company Novamente LLC; chairman of the OpenCog Foundation; and advisor to Singularity University.
He was Director of Research of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (formerly the Singularity Institute). Goertzel is the son of Ted Goertzel, a former professor of sociology at Rutgers University.
[2] He left high school after the tenth grade to attend Bard College at Simon’s Rock, where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Quantitative Studies.
[3] Views on AI In May 2007, Goertzel spoke at a Google Tech talk about his approach to creating Artificial General Intelligence. He defines intelligence as the ability to detect patterns in the world and in the agent itself, measurable in terms of emergent behavior of “achieving complex goals in complex environments”.
A “baby-like” artificial intelligence is initialized, then trained as an agent in a simulated or virtual world such as Second Life to produce a more powerful intelligence.[7] Knowledge is represented in a network whose nodes and links carry probabilistic truth values as well as “attention values”, with the attention values resembling the weights in a neural network.
Several algorithms operate on this network, the central one being a combination of a probabilistic inference engine and a custom version of evolutionary programming Ben Goertzel’s focus these days is the SingularityNET project (http://singularitynet.io), which brings AI and blockchain together to create a decentralized open market for AIs.
It’s a medium for the creation and emergence of AGI, a way to roll out superior AI-as-a-service to every vertical market, and a way to enable everyone in the world to contribute to and benefit from AI. Ben’s passions are numerous, including AGI, life extension biology, philosophy of mind, psi, consciousness, complex systems, improvisational music, experimental fiction, theoretical physics and metaphysics. For general links to various of Ben pursuits present and past, see his website http://goertzel.org
