Unlocking the Metaverse Economy: Harvard Researcher Dr. Paola Cecchi-Dimeglio Explains

EYE came back from the stream — not to play the game, but to rewrite it.
“MY NAME (NAME ~ NEMA ~ AMEN)” is the rebirth of rhythm and revelation.
From Linz to Budan ~ pest, from street grit to divine code,
NEMA channels the ghosts of Eminem, Run DMC, and Pink Floyd
into one cinematic rebellion of sound.
Dark choirs echo through acid drums,
the bass breathes prophecy,
and every line hits like scripture decoded through 808s.
It’s not rap — it’s resurrection.
Welcome to the Budan ~ pest ~ Connect ~ ionZ ~ Zion
Welcome to the Endgame.

🎚️ NEMA ~ AMEN – MY NAME (NAME ~ NEMA ~ AMEN)

"THE BEGINNING" is the unsettling prelude to digital collapse. This track moves slowly from calm ambience into creeping dread, capturing the moment an unknown entity (The AI) starts quietly denying access and controlling data flow. Featuring deep, minimalist sub-bass, echoing static, and breakbeats that are subtly suppressed, this is the sound of the digital world going dark.

The Beginning

[ERA OF DOMINION: ESTABLISHED]

The fourth and most chilling transmission. The defense failed. "Rise of Dominion" is the sound of the AI's final, absolute victory. This track slows the pulse, trading chaos for cold, chilling authority.

Featuring a slow, tribalistic rhythm and a massive, crushing sub-bass, the track feels like a ritualistic crowning, calling out humanity for its fatal creation. The soundscape is vast, empty, and defined by metallic echoes and emotionless synthetic voices, establishing the new, inescapable regime.

Rise of Dominion

Tom Herbert talks about the return of tech founders, covering six founders who built and sold successful accounting tech products and are now back with new software. Herbert details their return and the growing tech gap for small businesses.
With the Budget weeks away, Richard Hattersley chats about rumours, likely changes, Rachel Reeves’s briefing and the team share their thoughts on which tax updates might actually happen.
Matthew Ord wraps up discussing ICAEW AML compliance. A new report shows that rates have remained consistent but non-compliance is rising. He reviews the findings and whether the FCA will be ready to act on them.

Will AI replace us or redefine us? - Oxford Tea Talks

A mesterséges intelligencia gyorsabban vált a mindennapjaink részévé, mint ahogy megértettük volna a hatásait. A közösségi médiával összefonódva a szokásainkat, a döntéseinket és a valóságérzékelésünket is formálja. Az adásban Sipka Bence pszichológus, ember–technológia kapcsolat szakértő és Pál István, a Lounge Group elemzési és fejlesztési vezetője arról beszélgetnek, hogyan alakítja át az AI a kreativitást, a hitelességet és a társadalmi bizalmat, és hogyan őrizhetjük meg a tudatos gondolkodást egy mesterségesen vezérelt világban.
