A (horny) word in your ear: the growing desire for audio erotica
The erotic audio industry is booming as listeners seek an ethical and more immersive alternative to porn. So what does it take to write and voice modern sexual appetites?
In search of answers, @miles.ellingham went beyond the research and tried his hand at writing an erotic story of his own.
Swipe to listen to a taster, then read the full piece at the link in our bio.

On the cover of this weekend’s O, The Observer Magazine: Very Horny Voices.
What does the rise of audio erotica tell us about modern desire?
A few months ago, @miles.ellingham travelled to Amsterdam, home to many of the voice actors behind the genre, to find out why narrative porn is having a moment.
“Scripts are meant to be expansive, not mechanical, with narratives that encompass sex, not the other way around,” Miles writes in this week’s cover story. And, inspired by the voice actors and producers he met along the way, he decided to try his hand at writing one himself.

My report from Iceland is out in print today. Pls grab a copy. It’s about the end of the world and how we talk about it @theobserveruk - big thanks to @andrimagnason who the piece follows.

Glaciers are not supposed to stop moving, but in 2014 one did.
Iceland has roughly the same amount of this moving ice as the Himalayas, and the latter’s glaciers supply water to China, Pakistan, India and Afghanistan – about 1.9 billion people.
Glaciers function as natural archives, trapping prehistoric air, which can be tapped and studied. They act as the health meter for the world, and that meter is dwindling because the glaciers are melting at an alarming pace. In order to talk about the slow death of the world, we need some kind of a starting point. As far as activist Andri Snær Magnason is concerned, that starting point is the receding glaciers of Iceland.
Twelve years ago, in Iceland, the unthinkable occurred: the first glacier died, meaning it had shrunk so much that it could no longer move. Its name was Okjökull.
@miles.ellingham travels to Iceland to see Okjökull and meet Magnason.

@carlitorovelli, the bestselling theoretical physicist, believes time travel is improbable but not impossible.
@miles.ellingham transports Rovelli back to the 1970s: “In Bologna, the centre of Italy’s left-wing hotbed, Carletto, as he was then called, a student, is having a lot of sex. That’s not all he’s doing, but it’s no small part of it. Carletto’s comrades have sex like they’re exchanging business cards.” When they are not having sex, Carletto and his friends are agitating for a world in which “work and the police are abolished and ‘cigarettes no longer taste like tear gas’.”
But then, when he is 25, something remarkable happens to Rovelli: he comes under the spell of an excitable elderly professor and he is awakened to the rival joys of quantum mechanics…
Over the course of two days with Rovelli at his home in Madrid, and armed with his GCSE knowledge of the universe, Miles asks the physicist all the big questions. Is time real? Why do string theorists and loop theorists loathe one another? And whatever happened to Carletto?
Find out by reading the full interview at our link in bio.

Making Great Yarmouth Great Again
‘Has the once-thriving town of Great Yarmouth really embraced the anti-immigrant worldview of its MP Rupert Lowe?'
'“Deindustrialised” is a word you read a lot when researching the town, mostly in relation to commercial fishing, but it doesn’t tell the whole story.' @miles.ellingham heads to the seaside home of Joyland to discover more.

For 30 years, the England Band has followed the national football team around the world with its trumpets and drums.
They've endured disappointment, ridicule and countless false dawns — often at enormous personal cost.
So what keeps them coming back?

Twenty years ago, a film crew arrived in a small Roma village in the Romanian countryside, paid the locals £2.50 each, and told them they were making a documentary.
They were actually making Borat — a global sensation that won Sacha Baron Cohen a Golden Globe and depicted Glod's residents as backwards, inbred, and criminal.
For today’s piece, Miles Ellingham travelled there to ask an obvious question: what happened to the people left behind?
