[...] It’s worth it, to stick around,

to drown and to float, to sink,

shrink, and to rise, with a new

thank you wrinkled on your skin:

it’s been an honor, every time,

to entwine my story with yours,

to pour my river into your sea,

and be if nothing else one line

of the design life has painted,

waited on your beautiful face. [...]

'[...] You know, I have grown convinced that human beings are all sources of light. Maybe not in the sense of electromagnetic radiation, although probably that is something Danny would be very excited about, but for sure of radiation of some sort. Call it love, call it halo, call it charm. I think we all are radioactive in some way. For better or for worse. [...]'

With the stroll through memory lane of the busy streets of the city, we try to explore what Light is and can be.

Welcome everyone to the second season of Perspective! This week it's a little break for us to explain to you what we have in store for you in a brand new season and brand new perspectives. We hope you will like it just as much as the first one.

Welcome to a special episode of Perspective. Today you will get a chance to get to know us a little bit closer and see what is our favourite colour, what do we miss the most and a piece of advice we got. This is our take of the "73 Questions with ..." that Vogue does, but with our podcast twist!

This is the last episode of Perspective's first season. So as we approach this ending, we will start reflecting on what kind of beginning we can imagine when things end, what endings can mean, how we can live both beginnings and endings from the best perspective. Thank you so much for having taken part in this wonderful adventure with us, and we hope to find you there for the beginning of season 2!

The word 'perfection' was introduced into the English language more or less in the 13th century, and the etymological origin of the word isthe Old French 'perfection', which in turn originated from the Latin word 'perfectionem'. The original meaning of 'perfection' is actually 'to bring to full development', therefore 'perfect' simply meant 'completed, finished, accomplished'. How many layers of meaning has this word aquired with the passing of time though! Today we're going to explore all that the notion of perfection conjures up for us, its impact in our social and inner lives, and on the way we perceive reality.

What is the time? An abstract man-made concept or clear vision of seconds passing by? In this episode we are trying to explore what time means for us in many different aspects.

Today, starting where we left off in Episode 22, we are going to talk about how democracy can be threatened by censorship and the manipulation of information. Are we educated enough to vote? Are we adequately equipped to make a critical and informed choice? How can we overcome our tribal politics and free ourselves of our distorted perceptions of reality? For more reflections on how easy it is to make people feel threatened by what they don’t know, and on what we imagine would be a more peaceful society, listen to the whole episode!

In this episode, we are talking about the experiences we had during our school years, what education is for us while trying not to get angry at our countries educational systems. At the end we are trying to answer the question: What is school for?
