Description: In this inbetweenisode I read an excerpt from my book, You Are Now Less Dumb, about a strange experiment in Michigan that tested the bounds of the self by throwing three very unusual men into a situation that won't likely be repeated ever again by science.

i enjoyed this and glad i stayed for it. could do  without 1st 2mins. Just the meat plz

One of your best, had to go back and listen to this one again. quiet the insight for me

Easy to Love

In this inbetweenisode I read an excerpt from my book, You Are Now Less Dumb, about a strange experiment in Michigan that tested the bounds of the self by throwing three very unusual men into a situation that won't likely be repeated ever again by science.

This recording is our interpretation of a traditional ritual lament song "dalai" from the Tusheti region in Georgia. Originally, the song is performed by a soloist and a choir without any instrumental accompaniment. 

"Dalai" is a Georgian folk poem song.
The name comes from the refrain("dala ჲ...") that is attached to each Tayyip verse. "Dalai" stands in complete isolation in all Georgian folk music - it ends with an alternation of speaking and unison choir, and the horseman (pronouncing "Dalai") begins in a sad tone.
There is an opinion that "Dalai" came to Tusheti from the Vainakhs and Dagestan culture (in Dargvin musical folklore "Dalai" means song).

Unearthed by Mike Peden for BBE Music, Per Husby Septett’s ‘The Peacemaker’ is a beautiful, deep and under-the-radar small big band set recorded in 1976 by the elite of Norway’s jazz cognoscenti, led by pianist and band leader Per Husby.

Originally issued for Husby on the Studentersamfundets Plateselskap label by the Student Society in Trondheim, Norway, this obscure jazz rarity had no budget for PR or distribution, and with just a mere 500 copies pressed sales were scarce; it soon became a collectors item in Norway and across the globe. The album creates a big-sounding dynamic mix of original compositions by Per Husby and covers, including Harold Land’s modal masterpiece title cut ‘The Peacemaker’, plus a top-draw selection of tunes encompassing post bop, modal, bossa and ballads by the likes of Kenny Wheeler, Cedar Walton and Charlie Parker.

Reissued with original artwork and the approval of Per Husby himself, who has also provided the sleeve notes, ‘The Peacemaker’ is now available once again for download, streaming, CD and as a double 180g LP cut at 45rpm by the Grammy-nominated Carvery studio.

<p>In this episode, Micheal Rousell, author of <a href="http://michaelrousell.com/books/power-of-surprise">The Power of Surprise</a>, explains the science of surprise at the level of neurons and brain structures, and then talk about how surprises often lead to the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves, the different personal narratives that guide our behaviors and motivations and goals, and, perhaps most importantly, our willingness to be surprised again so that we can change and grow.</p><p>In the show, you will how we can use the current understanding of how surprise leads to learning, and how learning depends on interpretation, to improve our lives, and the lives of others</p><ul><li>How Minds Change: <a href="https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome" target="_blank">www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome</a></li><li>David McRaney’s Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/davidmcraney" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/davidmcraney</a></li><li>YANSS Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/notsmartblog</a></li><li>Show Notes: <a href="http://www.youarenotsosmart.com/" target="_blank">www.youarenotsosmart.com</a></li><li>Newsletter: <a href="https://davidmcraney.substack.com/" target="_blank">https://davidmcraney.substack.com</a></li></ul>

005 - Selling Out

What you hear is the sonified expression of the 3D structure of the protein with PDB ID 1akg (ALPHA-CONOTOXIN PNIB FROM CONUS PENNACEUS, see: http://dx.doi.org/10.2210/pdb1AKG/pdb), translated into an orchestral setting (koto [a Japanese string instrument], cello, double bass, viola, flute, and fluegelhorn). The koto is used to express the primary, secondary and tertiary structure of the protein.  

The piece reflects a classical period model of the hierarchical mapping to describe the 3D folded structure of a protein in musical space. The musical mapping begins from the primary amino acid sequence (GCCSLPPCALSNPDYCX) and encodes multiple hierarchical structural levels, and adds musical experimentation. 

We use the concept proposed by Yu, Buehler et al. (ACS Nano) to map amino acid sequences to music, and augment the mapping by adding more data. The 3D folded structure of a protein is coded by inserting strummed chords and interwoven melodies that code for the geometric arrangement of amino acids, the protein's tertiary structure. Rhythm and note volume code for secondary structure.

[1] The protein used for this example is 6cjc (CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A FC FRAGMENT LALA MUTANT (L234A, L235A) OF HUMAN IGG1 (CRYSTAL FORM 3))
