Less pills and more herbs might be a good idea!
Nature is still smarter than we are. The world — and our physiology — is still more complex than we like to think.
Designer Suzanne Lee shares her experiments in growing a kombucha-based material that can be used like fabric or vegetable leather to make clothing. The process is fascinating, the results are beautiful (though there’s still one minor drawback …) and the potential is simply stunning. (Recorded at TED2011, March 2011, in Long Beach, CA.

Lyrics to Roots To Grow :
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
The world is cold, the world can lie
(Stefanie)
Every child has its own piece of sky
A place you hold till the day that you die
I wanna be heart, I wanna be soul
I wanna be free to do the best I can
And that’ll keep me satisfied
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
(Stefanie)
That’s what your mama gave you
(Choir)
The world is cold, the world can lie
(Stefanie)
Nobody else will save you
My God he asks promises I just can’t make
I need to search my wilder side
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
(Gentleman)
Lord have mercy
Yeah, I know that sky’s the limit
You know why?
Anyways
You bless with every tingle
When you wanna be
Actual virtual reality
You know if I’m missin’ you
You are in charge of your memory
Certain things take time to see
Yes you got to have a mind of your own
Responding to your feelings deep down in your bone
Life is so lucious
Soul is so precious
Now spread your wings and fly
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
(Gentleman)
That’s what your mama gave you
(Choir)
The world is cold, the world can lie
(Gentleman)
Nobody else will save you
(Stefanie)
My God he asks promises I just can’t make
I need to search my wilder side
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
(Stefanie)
Somewhere I hear my name
far off in the haze
But now I don’t feel the same
need somewhere else, somewhere else to play
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
(Gentleman)
That’s what your mama gave you
(Choir)
The world is cold, the world can lie
(Stefanie)
Nobody else will save you
(Stefanie)
My God he asks promises I just can’t make
I need to search my wilder side
(Choir)
Roots to grow and wings to fly
