Congrats to Mark Westmoquette & Kiki Kita on publication today of Look Up At Bedtime - it’s a unique and really beautiful kids book that combines science, myth and mindfulness in an exploration of our connections to the stars - I love it! www.waterstones.com/book/look-up...

A fascinating evening's discussion of Jo's new book - In Search of Now - an attempt to bring together the disciplines of neuroscience, psychology, cosmology and quantum physics to try and capture what it is that we consider to be the 'present moment'

I’m really looking forward to this!

Thanks, Phil, lovely to see you there!

What is 'NOW'?

By the time you finish this sentence, it’s already gone.

In her book, In Search of Now, Jo Marchant explores how science is uncovering the mysteries of this elusive moment - what it means for how we experience time, memory and reality itself.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! Very excited it’s finally out 😊

Beautiful copies of In Search of Now, just arrived from @canongate.co.uk! Very excited to finally see it out in the world

Looking forward to this!

For the season final of Where the Wild Thoughts Are, Julian & I picked our favourite bits so far, from listening to ponds to reading purple. Oh and I remembered the time awe nearly killed me, and Julian revealed the moment he understood the entire universe shows.acast.com/where-the-wi...

Can't believe we've made it to 16 episodes of Where the Wild Thoughts Are already! I had a ball this week chatting to the brilliant David de la Haye about how sound can immerse us in hidden underwater worlds, and what it's like to improve music with your garden pond shows.acast.com/where-the-wi...

Looking forward to this!

It was great to chat to you! Hearing you describe the statues and carvings really made me feel like I was creeping down those corridors into the Neolithic underworld...

Excited to share news of my upcoming book, about the science of Now. Thank you @canongate.co.uk for designing such a beautiful cover! Writing this has been a long road (!) but now it's finally starting to feel real... 🎉 😆
