After struggling through a dozen drafts of her previous episode on physics and time, Mara finds herself staring at all the ideas that didn't make it into the final cut. Rather than sweep them away, she invites listeners into her messy creative process—exploring the mysterious grammar of the Bible's opening word, the confetti of human perspective, the beautiful chaos of entropy, and her gentle disagreement with a physicist about humanity's place in the cosmos. Sometimes the splattered paint around the canvas tells its own story.
