A Mother's Day request to the MacArthur Genius Grant, Nobel Prize Committee...

Thinking of my mother's health on Mother's Day...

Where are the MacArthur genuis grant, dead seriously, the Nobel Peace Prize... other such prizes that "ideally" support the betterment of mankind? Fetzer, Noetic Institute, Goldman!? The fate of the planet no longer rest in the future. Any action taken now cannot be from the same paradigm that brought us here. Traditional routes of funding intrinsically don't have the capacity to imagine people liberated to be sufficient without the funders receiving a 'significant' impoverishing return from a majority of people. Sacklers, Dey, Lily, Woods and a million more names show us how to chain people to addiction, fantastic corporate profits and poverty for the majority of people. The sun doesn't follow that operating principle. Ecosystems and bioregions don't work that way. Earth's natural systems don't work that way. Aptera as it currently exists, a solar car company, is a bridge leaving behind consumption of this living planet, concentration to the fewest "deserving" entities.
To Goldman, Fetzer and others I say support a relationship to this planet mankind has largely heard rumors of. Aptera is a concrete step to seeing and valuing man's connection to the planet in a way of Peace and Power without domination without its destruction. Grantors, consider this company, please significantly fund it- now.
Oh! Almost forgot! I will work on being a better son, but, Happy's Mother's Day Gaia!

Warms my heart to see Hearts of Space continue its weekly tradition of a one-liner Bay Area Weather report.

From this weeks program #1094, originally broadcast November 13, 2015:

"Bay Area Weather: desperate crickets"

Deep cut Hearts of Space trivia: Program #168, "KINGDOM OF THE SUN" had the 1st BAY AREA WEATHER: "Sizzlin and drizzlin"

Sadly, it appears the most recent iteration of the HOS site no longer shows it

Hearts of Space episode 501 - ALTIPLANO has 6 tracks from Gustavo Santaolalla's 1998 album RONROCO.

Santaolalla "composed the music for the video game THE LAST OF US (2013) and its sequel THE LAST OF US PART II (2020)" (& TV too) & his track IGUAZU sounds sympatico with the theme from THE LAST OF US.

"The music of the high Andes plateau — the "altiplano" — comes from the western edge of South America, an area that extends a thousand miles from southern Ecuador through Peru and Bolivia, to Northern Chile."

#NowListening

I grew up listening to Hearts of Space on NPR radio. The show started in 1973 and persists today as a streaming service. They play various genres related to #ambient, space music, down-tempo #electronica, #Celtic, world music, and new age.

Here’s a #playlist on Spotify that has 761 hours of Hearts of Space music! That’s my jam this morning. #HeartsOfSpace
