The chapel was beautiful: stained glass, vaulted ceilings, dark wood pews. And the acoustics in the space were ideal; the natural reverb was lush and gorgeous. Down [...]]]></description>

		<title>Art, Faith, and Discovery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently found this quote by Albert Camus, author of the literary classic The Stranger: &#34;A man&#8217;s work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of art, those two or three great and simple images in whose presence his heart first opened.&#34; Camus&#8217; sentiment is lovely, describing the creative process as [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Superfluid New Year, Reprise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last New Year&#8217;s Day I wrote a heartfelt blog post exploring a poetic interconnection among Taoism, physics, and the turning of the year. Today I feel inspired to reprise that essay, slightly revised, for those of you who&#8217;ve joined me in 2009&#8230; This one&#8217;s for you! I love Chinese philosophy&#8212;its naturalness, its easy wisdom. I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>
