1. Breaking The Horizon

All songs by My bubba, written during Scandinavian winter months full of longing for warm, exotic places - except East Cave, where the lyrics come from a Slavic folk song, and Sexual Healing, by Marvin Gaye & Odell Brown. Recorded in Seahorse Sound Studios, Los Angeles, and House of Blues Studios, Encino. Produced and mixed by Noah Georgeson. Mastered 
by Golden Mastering.

Sexual Healing

A shimmering evening fantasia of insect song and the singing of Bayaka men sitting in a circle illuminated only by firelight and stars.

Note: To fully experience the 3D sound in this soundscape, listen to the recording with your headphones on.

Fairy tales don't only belong to the domain of childhood. Their overt themes are threaded throughout hit TV series like Game of Thrones and True Blood, Grimm and Once Upon a Time. These stories survive, says Maria Tatar, by adapting across cultures and history. They are carriers of the plots we endlessly re-work in the narratives of our lives -- helping us work through things like fear and hope.

A profound stutter as a child left Alan Rabinowitz virtually unable to communicate and to prefer animals to people. Now a conservationist of tigers and jaguars, an explorer of the world's last wild places, he has extraordinary insight into both animals and the human condition.

One of the values of science is to make us uncomfortable says Lawrence Krauss. The particle physicist explains why we should all care about dark energy and the Higgs Boson particle. Science literacy matters, and, more importantly, he suggests we should take joy in science — just as we cultivate enjoyment of arts we may not completely comprehend.

With new techniques of brain imaging, neuroscientist Rex Jung and his colleagues are gaining a whole new view of the differences and the interactions between intelligence, creativity, and personality: 

"With intelligence, there's the analogy I've used is there's this superhighway in the brain that allows you to get from point A to point B. With creativity, it's a slower, more meandering process where you want to take the side roads and even the dirt roads to get there."

How do we prime our brains to take the meandering mental paths necessary for creativity? Rex Jung unsettles some old assumptions, and suggests some new connections between creativity and family life, creativity and aging, creativity and purpose.

For Mother's Day, the celebrated Jewish-Buddhist teacher and psychotherapist, mother, and grandmother: Sylvia Boorstein. The best way to nurture children's inner lives, she says, is by taking care of our own inner selves for their sake. At a public event in suburban Detroit, Krista Tippett draws out the warmth and wisdom of Ms. Boorstein, and, in a light-hearted moment that is an audience pleaser, Ms. Boorstein shares what GPS might teach us about "recalculating" and our own inner equanimity.
