Waking Up is a five part story set in Brooklyn NY in 2035. This is the third episode, titled "Reasons to Live," featuring the poetry of Maria Garcia Teutsch.

Story:Waking Up is about a synthetic consciousness born trapped inside a human. It is an exploration of the science and spirituality of consciousness, as well as the fallibility of our subjective perception. 

Music: In some Vedic and Buddhist writing, consciousness is described as a vibration. The music seeks to explore the effects of two waves vibrating together.
