InfoBreak: Meditate With Laurie Anderson

Most people have zero idea who Laurie Anderson is, and that's terribly unfortunate. She's an artist, sculptor, inventor, musician, vocalist, humorist and was even NASA's first Artist in Residence. She's one-of-a-kind, indeed, sporting a brilliant mind and unique perspective.

I just got my tickets for her performance in April at UCLA and can't wait. It will be the 8th time I've seen her perform since she toured the Big Science album back in the early 80s.

For today's InfoBreak, I present Laurie performing "Only an Expert", which is part of her new show entitled "Homeland".

More cool vids after the break.
