That said this hide and seek program is huge on the island. Well done Jen and Eben!

The only person I know who has found one is Chuck Duval.

My wife, daughter, and I went on a couple of hunts last year. I watched today's episode on Sunday morning and seeing what the expert hunter was doing correlates with what I have read to be recommended. Searching along paths moving foliage with a walking stick. It must be like fishing, there is a skill and a pattern to identifying holds, as that orbivore guy had it dialed in.

I love the orb project and feel it is an interactive art installation at a scale that transcends what is normally considered interactive public art. I feel it is more honest/genuine than the work Banksy. I have always found more appeal to art that is widely accessible to everyone. I also feel the nature of it in its totality is absolutely magnificent, and such and incredible gift. Thank you Eben and Jenn.

The only thing a disagree with is that the project connects people with nature. I feel that it definitely puts people in nature, but if you ever spot someone looking for orbs they are most often not smelling the roses. They are on a mission, and sometimes will almost walk into you on the trail as they are completely unaware of anything but the object of their hunt. These orbs are as powerful as cell phones. Complete and absolute mind control. Well played Eben and Jenn.

Those were some very thoughtful words. Thank you.

I agree with you about people not connecting with nature and while some people are “orbsessed” I have seen plenty of people who walk slow enough to look down, look up and look all around and can process what is all around them.
