Apologies for the long silence; enjoy these videos while you wait.

This is a new phenomenon sweeping YouTube, and especially among those of is in the online Atheist community who deeply appreciate science. These videos fill me with awe and make me choke up with emotion as much as an inspiring hymnal does for religious people.

(features Neil de Grasse Tyson, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Richard Feynman, and Carl Sagan)



The above is actually a second installment. The original work that kicked off this phenomena was called "Glorious Dawn", featuring astrophysicist Stephen Hawking and the late Carl Sagan...



This first work is actually on my iPod. The artist who composed has generously been making the MP3 available for free download.

Very creative use of an Autotuner...apparently giving birth to this new genre of online music. There are also satiric songs poking fun at politicians, etc.

More on library stuff in a bit, just wanted to share these for now.
