Story hunter and one of Israel’s leading podcast creators, Maya Kosover moved the audience with the story of the first artwork ever presented in space, The Laughing Star, created from the rolling laughter of a young American woman. The sound of her laughter was printed in space using a 3D printer and launched into endless wandering across the universe. Like any powerful story, it unfolded with an unexpected twist that infused the word “space” with additional layers of meaning.

In a live mini podcast on stage, Kosover told the story accompanied by live music from cellist and composer Maya Belsitzman.
