Well worth an hour: RadioLab from WNYC

Just finished listening to the 1st episode of the 5th season of a show carried on NPR called RadioLab. This is really inventive, interesting radio. It features modern sound design and production techniques and is always about something interesting.

This week, the subject was “Choice” and how we make it and why.

“Choice: We turn up the volume on the voices in our heads and try to make sense of the babble. On a journey around the country to understand how emotion and logic interact to guide us through our options, we ponder how we get through the million choices and decisions we make every day. Forget free will, some important decisions could come down to a steaming cup of coffee…”

Great radio and modern production techniques...

It was a fascinating hour and well worth the listen. And although they did not speak specifically to the choices made in a creative endeavor like music, the observations have interesting implications.

Check out the show here.
