The first-business I ever conceived was a children's edutainment program
that shared basic science concepts through the performing arts. It was all about the
most energy efficient shape and we used hula hoops, ping pong balls, juggling balls, bouncing balls and more to embody the lessons. Indeed, the space-time warp is bent by the mass of objects within it - the larger the object, the more it bends space (and, thus, time) around it. (Imagine LOVE as a mass? Me? I'm just throwing out these balls hoping they'll stick like glue...)
Jupiter is known to have 32 moons orbiting it. At one point in my journey, I would look into a 10" telescope under a light-filled, Idyllwild-night sky and point out Io, Callisto, Ganymede and Europa (Jupiter's four largest moons) to the inquiring BodyMinds of children. Light penetrates space with its laser-like beams, yes, and it is sweet curves that nurture and sustain life as we know it.
(p.s. the gorgeous voice and soft tabla playing in the background is local singer-songwriter ashley foster. you can hear her sing, "sweet you are," on our valentine's day videoblog here.)
