I heard two of the band members today on Public Radio talk about making this video. Filmed on a plane travelling in a parabolic trajectory creating 30-second periods of simulated weightlessness on the descent portion of the parabola. Eight weightless periods were stitched together to make the seamless video.<br>
<br>
One band member does look a bit like Jacob Deva Racusin, our illustrious GSBN member. I should know because in addition to seeing him at the Natural Building Colloquium in New Mexico in October, I had dinner with him (and others) last night, and saw him frequently at the Build Well conference the last three days in San Francisco. Another exceptional conference organized and hosted by Bruce and Sarah King. Thank you Bruce and Sarah! (and all who participated).<br>
<br>
Though the conference is over, you can learn more about it at:   <a href="http://ecobuildnetwork.org/buildwell-2016" target="_blank">http://ecobuildnetwork.org/buildwell-2016</a><br>
