In this opening episode, we explore RNA as both a biological messenger and a symbolic signal—something that appears to arrive from beyond us in Pluribus, and yet has always been at work within us. Through a layered binaural soundscape oscillating between delta and theta states, this reflection considers RNA not just as genetic code, but as a coordinating force in life: shaping cooperation, regulation, and connection at every level.

Rather than approaching RNA as a scientific problem to solve, this episode invites a quieter question: what happens when we listen to the patterns that already sustain us? Drawing from evolutionary biology, folklore, nervous system science, and the themes of Pluribus, the episode reflects on how life organizes itself—not through domination, but through joining.

This is a meditative inquiry, not an explanation. Headphones are recommended. Let the sound hold the space as the system settles, and notice what the idea of RNA-as-signal evokes in you.
