Hundertwasser on 99% invisible

Another podcast plug. This week 99% invisible did a story about one of my favourite eccentric artists and outside the box thinkers. I have always loved this man's out of the box thinking and bright colours, but when I was in New Zealand I bought his book "The Art of the Green Path" and really got deeper into his philosophy, which guided all of his wild and resonant thinking. Here is a story that does a beautiful job of summarizing this indescribably wild person. http://99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-straight-line-is-a-godless-line/

A Moth story about the birds and bees.

In case you haven't ever heard the Moth podcast I highly reccomend it. I was driving from Prince Rupert to Quesnel the other day and listening to a ton of podcasts to help pass the time. Stumbled across this one about a mother trying to cope with talking to her inquisitive daughter about the sexual health. She talks about how we pass this on from generation to generation, each of us trying to do our best with what can be a sticky subject. I appreciate her thoughts. http://themoth.org/posts/stories/the-conversation
