Nicole has worked for 15 years in the education and creative tech sector in Boston, with Sociedad Latina, on a global scale with the Intel Computer Clubhouse Network and now in the world of innovation and the arts with Berklee College of Music's Institute for Creative Entrepreneurship and as a founding team member of the Open Music Initiative.

LP and Nicole spoke a bit about Yucatec Mayan history in this episode. Here are 2 of Nicole's favorites:

Maya Saints & Souls in a Changing World by John M. Watanabe (this one is actually about a village in Guatemala, but it's an excellent case study in acculturation)

Michael Donaldson

LP sits down with Michael Donaldson to talk about his newsletter Ringo Dreams of Lawncare, his blog 8 Sided Blog, the virality of independent music pre-internet, Kraftwerk, Tony Allen, the Clash, and finding your scene.

Best known in the industry as Astralwerks/Virgin Records recording artist Q-Burns Abstract Message, Michael Donaldson learned the ins-and-outs of the music business through managing the influential '90s electronic imprint Eighth Dimension Records. Once the 21st century was in full swing, Michael transformed the label into the music licensing agency 8DSync and a new label, 8D Industries. Michael is also a writer on the topic of "music-listening and music-making and how technology changes the culture around those things." His insights are found on 8sided.blog and his weekly email newsletter, Ringo Dreams of Lawn Care. Michael tries to take a photo of the sunrise every morning and will send the latest one to you if you ask.
