How can one find meaning in what often feels like a meaningless world? Think of this as a travel guide to small islets of rest and recuperation - art, literature, film, song, place, object - to give all of us nihilists a break from our burdens for about half an hour. Expect disquisitions on, among others, emptiness, dewdrops, not realising one's dream, Kathleen Ferrier's vocal timbre, Bill Callahan and authenticity.

Also, forthcoming, will be a series entitled 'Unsolved Questions in Philosophy', addressing rarely asked questions such as: What will we do when the machines have set us free? Can we laugh in a time of mass extinction? Why is the end of the world always shown as a bang and not a whimper?

In either case, expect long, discursive essay-like responses interspersed with sounds.
