Space

I'm joined again by "artist in residence" Martin Zaltz Austwick to share music, sounds, and stories of space.

Listen to his podcasts Neutrinowatch and Song By Song. Listen to the music he makes as Pale Bird (including the mini album we made together). Follow him on Twitter. And definitely check out the video for Many Moons.

Thank you so much to Jenny Owen Youngs who recorded a voice memo to accompany her song Dragonborn. Listen to the new EP "It's Dangerous to Go Alone" and support Jenny's work at Bandcamp.

Thank you to Lauren Selfridge for sharing her touching MRI-induced trip to the stars. Check out her podcast This Is Not What I Ordered where she has rich and moving conversations with people living with chronic health challenges.
