Awe

submitted by jamesdeanxxo on 05/28/16 1

Psychologist Nicholas Humphrey has proposed that our ability to awe was biologically selected for by evolution because it imbues our lives with sense of cosmic significance that has resulted in a species that works harder not just to survive but to flourish and thrive. Join Jason Silva every week as he freestyles his way into the complex systems of society, technology and human existence and discusses the truth and beauty of science in a form of existential jazz. New episodes every Tuesday. Thumbnails artwork and wardrobe: www.imaginaryfoundation.com Select footage: POND5 and Shutterstock and Discovery archives.
