Is an enlightened society a society without language? This episode explores what starlings can teach us about selves, the space that surrounds the experience of being, and how to create a more welcoming world. The story I discuss in this episode is called 'The end of language'. The hack I mention for finding the subject and verb of a clause is called the question-tag probe. Here's a video on how to use it to find the subject, and here's one on how to find the verb. Have you ever seen a starling murmuration? Watch this video from the RSPB, and be prepared to be amazed (or even, enlightened).
