Big News Unveiled at the 2024 PG&E Innovation Summit in San Jose, CA

November 2024 - San Jose. CA

Thought leaders from around the world converged in California for Pacific Gas & Electric’s 2024 Innovation Summit. Global giants in policymaking, utility, and tech were there to tackle some of today’s most challenging energy and environmental issues with innovative solutions.

PG&E executives say rapidly changing technology and a modern utility landscape have made way for a creative opportunity. They outlined bold plans to deliver an enhanced customer experience with climate change in mind.

The company is partnering with the City of San Jose and Westbank Development Company to meet growing demands for affordable housing while reaching the city’s decarbonization goals. Their plans lean heavily on artificial intelligence.

In downtown San Jose – the heart of Silicon Valley – the project includes three new data centers and upwards of 4,000 residential units.

The plan would transform downtown San Jose, responding to demands for more housing and “AI infrastructure.”

In addition to the big partnership news from the summit between real estate developer Westbank and Pacific Gas and Electric,

Itron and PG&E announced a joint effort to manage electric vehicle charging loads.

The program, now being piloted, will allow PG&E customers to avoid costly electrical upgrades while receiving the benefit of powerful at-home charging, improving the experience for customers and communities at large.

Summit speakers highlight AI as “augmented intelligence,” used to enhance efficiency and drive innovation.

This exciting intersection bridges the gap between the system of today and that of the future.

Clean energy is top of mind for leaders at PG&E’s 2024 Innovation Summit. Nuclear power is part of their work.

The U.S. is the world’s largest producer of nuclear power. California’s only remaining nuclear power plant, Diablo Canyon, is part of the solution.

Diablo Canyon, outside of San Luis Obispo, provides nearly 9% of the state’s electricity and generates 17% of its zero-carbon energy.

PG&E announced it is deploying AI-powered solutions at the Diablo Canyon power plant.

This marks the first commercial installation of its kind at a U.S. nuclear power plant and sets a new standard for information access and analysis in the nuclear energy sector.

Built and running on NVIDIA’s full-stack AI platform, Atomic Canyon’s “Neutron Enterprise Generative AI Solution” will transform administrative efficiency and deliver significant cost savings.

The California Energy Commission estimates the demand for power across the state will rise about 43% in the next 15 years. PG&E says Diablo Canyon will become a more critical, reliable energy asset.

With demand for nuclear power growing worldwide – driven by the growth of data centers, electrification of industry, and transportation – PG&E finds itself once again poised as a leader on the national and global front.

Leaning on tech advancements will fuel productivity, and accelerated, efficient operations translate to seamless and reliable energy delivery for Californians living through longer, hotter summers.

Leaders at the helm expect their innovative work at Diablo Canyon to serve as a model for the remaining nuclear power plants in the U.S.

Behind the Scenes Making of the Wu-Tang Clan rap star RZA’s Photo Shoot of a new Classical Album

August 2024 – Los Angeles, CA:

The Wu-Tang’s founding member, RZA is always evolving, from writing and producing seminal hip-hop records, scoring and directing movies to writing books.

And now, his creative journey continues, as he releases an album, his first solo record since 2008, of classical music that he wrote and composed, The Ballet Through Mud, inspired by the notebooks of stories and lyrics that he wrote as a teenager.

The Ballet is the culmination of RZA’s musical career, a work he is incredibly proud of, that represents the mastery of his craft, a record that speaks without lyrics and that can score the movie of anyone’s daily life.

Bader Studios Hollywood was invited exclusively to spend the day behind the scenes with the Staten Island New York native to experience the photo shoot that would set the direction and tone of this new work.

Ballet is different to RZA’s other classical works, which have typically been film scores (Kill Bill, Ghost Dog, Blade Trinity) in service to an existing picture. The Ballet is purely RZA’s own ideas and inspiration from start to finish, coming at a time when he is fully able to wield the tools of a symphonic composer, evolving from looking for samples to tell his musical story in the early days of the Wu, to now composing for a full orchestra at his piano.

Of course this is classical music on RZA’s terms, that owes as much to Isaac Hayes as it does Peter And The Wolf and Fantasia. As a producer he chose to mix the project in Dolby Atmos, on the Lennon Bus between concerts on the Wu-Tang and Nas tour!, upending traditional orchestral arrangements to try and give the listener the feeling of being the conductor.

Technology and Innovation at the Paris Summer Olympics

July 2024 – Paris, France:

In order for the athletes to compete at their best on the playing field, they need access to the most innovative and creative equipment to help enhance their efforts.

 

Bader Studios was invited by ON Running to visit their pop up LAB to meet Johannes Voelchert, the senior head of innovation concept design, who created Cloudboom Strike LS – LS stands for LightSpray, the trademarked name of the technology – and it weighs just six ounces.

It has 75 percent less impact on the environment than a traditional sneaker Johannes told us – With no heel-cap, laces or tongue, the translucent, sock-like sneaker looks like a running shoe that has lost its outer shell.

Johannes Voelchert, came up with the concept as a student after seeing a Halloween-themed hot glue gun that shot decorative spider webs.

Voelchert brought his technology breakthrough to the Milan Design Fair, where the executives from the Swiss sportswear brand were impressed.

The shoe is created from a single semi-translucent synthetic monofilament almost a mile long that is applied by a robotic arm, engineered to fit to the feet of the ON’s Olympic athletes.

The Cloudboom Strike LS is scheduled to go on sale later this year and is priced in the $300 range.

Over at the Pompidou Centre, Nike built an outdoor skatepark for the many would-be athletes who could only dream of what competing in the Games could actually be.

As the crowd gathered, the skaters were energized and showed off their moves proving that everyone is an athlete.

We take a look back at the recent Tribeca Film Festival where NYC VIBE greeted the filmmakers, writers, director and wife of the captain of the Springboks South African Rugby team that were thrilled to introduce their just finished movie highlighting Siya Kolisi and his foundation’s impact on the world’s stage.

With the 2023 Rugby World Cup Championships about to start in France and Kolisi back in action after an injury this summer, the rugby community will be focused on the talented team about to show the world who they are.

It is said that leaders are born out of many circumstances, including the need to grow up fast. Siya Kolisi had no other choice in the harsh challenges of his upbringing. Trials and tribulations gave way to a leader, and fittingly, the first Black captain of the South Africa national rugby union team. We hear from the man himself alongside family, friends, teammates, and more, as they weave together the grand tale of just who and what makes the Springboks legend so incomparable.

At times the life of Siya jumps off the screen like a fairy tale, with challenges external and internal paving the path for a success story that encapsulates perseverance. A singular story yet one that rings universal in its themes of overcoming, community, passion, and forgiveness. All this comes alongside stunning footage and intimate reveals from the Springboks’ quest to capture their record-tying third Rugby World Cup.

‘Oppenheimer’ U.S. Premiere Cancels Red Carpet Amid SAG-AFTRA Strike – London & Paris Coverage

Universal Pictures canceled the upcoming red carpet at the U.S premiere of Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” amid the SAG-AFTRA strike. Just prior, the cast gathered in London and Paris for the Europe premiere – Bader Studios Europe covered both events to talk with the actors and producers about the strike and this movie being the last one promoted.

“Oppenheimer” cast members, Cillian Murphy, Matt Damon and Emily Blunt were in London for the premiere but did not attend the screening of the film. Nolan informed the audience that his actors left the premiere to start making picket signs for the strike. The premiere’s red carpet actually started an hour earlier so that cast members could attend to promote the movie before the actors’ strike began.

Damon said: “We gave the strike authorization. We voted 98% to 2% to do that because we know our leadership has our best interest at heart.” Emily Blunt told Variety: “Obviously we stand with all of the actors and at whatever point it’s called, we’re going to be going home and standing together through it because I want everyone to get a fair deal.”

Gucci’s Ancora Star Studded Fashion Show in Milan, Italy

With 62 runway shows taking over Milan during fashion week, the Gucci show stood out with the number of stars and celebrities that turned out to see what the new designer, Sabato De Sarno had planned.

Kering hopes this showing will help revive sales at its flagship brand which suffered a sales decline. Bader Media was invited to the show in Milan.

The runway along with the Hollywood crowd that turned out to see what is next, saw a new appreciation of beauty, creating a foundation of a wide scale reset for the French group’s core label – which would be the key to creating buzz and reigniting sales, even if the new designs won’t reach stores until early next year.

Since parting ways last November with previous creative director Alessandro Michele, whose spirited, gender-neutral styles were credited with huge sales and profits to match in a four year period, Kering has been planning a new foundation for the brand’s reset with more elevated and timeless looks.
