///BIOPHILIA///

"Welcome to Biophilia: the love for Nature in all her manifestations, from the tiniest organism to the greatest red giant floating in the farthest realm of the Universe. With biophilia comes a restless curiosity, an urge to investigate & discover the elusive places where we meet nature, where she plays on our senses with colors & forms, perfumes & smells. The taste & touch of salty wind on the tongue. But much of nature is hidden from us, that we can neither see nor touch, such as the one phenomena that can be said to move us more than any other in our daily lives--Sound. Sound harnessed by human beings delivered with generosity & emotion is what we call Music. & just as we use music to express parts of us that would otherwise be hidden, so too can we use technology to make visible much of nature's invisible world. In biophilia, you will experience how the three come together: nature, music, technology. Listen, Learn, & Create. Travel the cosmos lying at your fingertips, touch the galaxies & move through their three dimensions. Discover the different song apps as they are introduced into the constellations & explore their extra features. & should you feel lost in space, you can always use the musical compass icon to take you home. Now, forget the size of the human body, remember that you are a gateway between the universal & the microscopic. The unseen forces that stare the depths of your innermost being, & nature who embraces you & all there is. We are on the brink of a revolution that will reunite humans with nature through new technological innovations. Until we get there.. prepare, explore, Biophilia."

..there was this reality of biophilia I experienced this past trip to the Philippines,
presented ever so clearly.
You can see it in my eyes as I feel it in my heart:
this new life, this new love, this new light*
