During “ The Intersection of Art + Sustainability ” Paul D. Miller (aka DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid) talked with Maranda Pleasant , Publisher and Editor-in-chief of Origin magazine about the magazine (Miller himself is the Executive Editor of Origin ). Miller - a superhuman force who claims to only have 24 hours in a day but who clearly accomplishes more than someone operating under mortal time limits - discussed his free app , his popular hardback offering “ The Book of Ice ” and talked about going to Antarctica to listen to the ice field. "All I can tell you is that I'm half-Jamaican, so that was crazy cold," Miller said during the morning panel when he discussed his trip to Antarctica.
