Episode: The Parallax View #82: Excess and absence (with Alex Ebert)
Description: Alex Ebert is an American singer-songwriter, best known for being the lead singer and songwriter for the American band 'Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros'. He is an Golden Globe winning composer for the Robert Redford movie "All is lost". But most of all, Ebert is also a pretty deep and fascinating thinker and philosopher.
Tom Amarque and Andrew Sweeny invited him to The Parallax View to talk about "excess and absence", two core concepts of Ebert that interweave music and metaphysics and are entry-points to his worldview. Do it up.
