Ep. 1: CloudCoin and Ep. 2: Therapeutic Writing
Kathryn interviews CloudCoin creator Sean H. Worthington, author of “Beyond Bitcoin: The Future of Digital Currency”. According to Worthington, Bitcoin, an easy, instant and anonymous worldwide payment system, has several fatal flaws which will ultimately prevent its intended use as a practical, decentralized global currency. Worthington and a consortium of mathematicians and computer scientists have designed a new cyber currency, CloudCoin, which he says is unhackable, untraceable, and can't be counterfeited. Kathryn also interviews actress and award-winning filmmaker Diane Sherry Case MFA, author of “Write for Recovery: Exercises for Heart, Mind and Spirit”. When Case started teaching teenagers in prisons, she encouraged her students to use creative writing. Through journaling, she discovered that many of the inmates—all triple felons—were victims of abuse. Case unlocked a healing creativity in them and is now using that power to inspire others.
