Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman

Where I am, this show premieres on the Science channel on 4 October (the day I go back to school, amusingly!). I wonder if it's because they 'heard' me rant on how the Discovery Channel never seems to update our scientific 'climate' accordingly.

Morgan: dweller of the sea, enchanter, the edge of the sea 

Freeman: a person awarded or inheriting the freedom, with any attached privileges, of a borough or city; a man who is not a slave or serf

Mika's star tunnels

Here are some of Mika's stargates! 

Happy Ending (above): he ascends to a higher plane in a dream, sees the light, while the hands indicate the tunnel through which he can find "a little bit of love" and escape feeling "as if he's wasting".

In Love Today, he plays a very self-infatuated character (or perhaps someone who believes too much in the 'self-help' attitude). Love and attention (the 'heaven's light') are projected on a screen behind him, but there is somewhat of a disconnection.






Back to Happy Ending, there is also a highly significant scene, recalling Michelangelo's Creation of Adam and suggesting that this is about achieving God-consciousness (even though, as Deepak Chopra says, we feel that in the aftermath of Ecstasy/Glory, there is "ho happy ending" and we are abandoned. He says it is important to then follow the spiritual clues).
