I always find myself comforting people with the words I want to hear.

MA Most of the time I spend when I get up in the morning is trying to figure out what is going to happen.

So, whenever given an opportunity, I try to do something in it or with it or for it.

I'm going to go over some science experiments and try to cover three musical experiments.

As I was leaving the plane in Paris, my bag got stuck in the seat.

I'm trying to remember the words monism, dualism, categories all over the place.

So I thought, okay, I'll try and make an electric toaster from scratch.

And now, all six cups. Should I do it on the first try or should I miss once on purpose?

So as a youngster, I tried to get close to this by drawing airplanes, constantly drawing airplanes.

But the good news is I don't think I need to stand here and convince you to care I'm not even going to try.

Thank you so much. I'm going to try to take you on a journey of the underwater acoustic world of whales and dolphins.

Here I was trying to help, and I had perpetuated the very thing I had spent my life trying to avoid yet another box.

My current work seems to resonate with people in a way that has so taken me by surprise that I still frequently wonder what in the hell is going on.

For a while now, I have been trying to make time to write something new on this blog.

And ever since, I've been walking the mystic path, trying to peer beyond what Albert Einstein called the optical delusion of everyday consciousness.

And so I'm going to try to talk to you over the next few minutes about my career in terms of how I'm able to actually try to study music and really try to grapple with all these questions of how the brain is able to be creative.

So I used to embark on these imaginary journeys to find intergalactic objects from planet Krypton, which was a lot of fun, but didn't get much result.

And then finally, what I've been trying to do here is create a really immersive experience for kids, where they really feel like they are part of that story, a part of that experience.

So I try to I try to create these very minimal activities that allow people to express themselves, and, hopefully whoa, I'm like on the page, but it doesn't exist.

Since we are such a visual species, it's hard for us to really understand this, so I'll use a mixture of figures and sounds and hope this can communicate it.

But just to try to prove that fact to you, I've brought along some bioluminescent plankton in what is undoubtedly a foolhardy attempt at a live demonstration.

Here's a little map. And I thought of maps at the beginning maybe I should just try and do a little atlas of my favorite streets and connections in Rome.

But when I try and think about what I've learned about the meaning in life, my mind keeps wandering back to a seminar that I took when I was a graduate student at Harvard with the great psychologist Erik Erikson.

But I'm going to try and do something different, and try and just close the loop with some of my personal stories, and try and put a face to a lot of the issues that we've been talking about.

And so I went back and I studied my first two acts, trying to see who I was then, who I really was not who my parents or other people told me I was, or treated me like I was.

And so plastic comes from oil, so I phoned up BP and spent a good half an hour trying to convince the PR office at BP that it would be fantastic for them if they flew me to an oil rig and let me have a jug of oil.

And I happen to know that company pretty well because John Heinz, who was our U.S. senator who was tragically killed in a plane accident he had heard about my desire to build a new building, because I had a cardboard box and I put it in a garbage bag and I walking all over Pittsburgh trying to raise money for this site.

The case was adjourned and we gathered outside the court to wait for the verdict. Meanwhile, a few journalists spoke to us trying to know whether we agreed with what Kareem had written or not.
