SU: View From Above

From the perspectives of the pilot, crane driver and climber, from mountain summits and a trapeze, Felicity Finch reflects on how the space above us and the heights we strive to reach can affect how we perceive our earth-bound lives below. With readings from Friederich Nietsche, Beryl Markham and Sam Keen and music by The Velvelt Underground, Edvard Grieg and Ane Brun, and an interview with mountaineer Stephen Venables.
