Episode 54

The seventh of eleven pisodes in which Miriam returns to ramble with me on my mind map. The six topics we randomly generated this time were left- and right-handedness, "cultural self-harm", fractality in nature, MK Ultra, ley lines and Conlon Nancarrow.

continue discussing proposed theories about ley lines, then drift off into general ideas about belief and objective reality, touching on dowsing, sympathetic magic, cults of saints, and a common theme in Peter Pan, Lord of the Rings and Winnie the Pooh.
