What is wonder? Where can we find it and how do we share it? Is it starting the day with a moment of mindfulness, or is it living closer to nature? Perhaps it’s a conversation with a stranger that shifts your perspective. Do we encounter it in grand spectacles, or in the smallest, most human moments?

We’ve invited friends and collaborators from the Wonderfruit creative community to consider these questions, from musicians to architects to Buddhist teachers, each of different ages and from various backgrounds. Through the window of their lived experiences, we’re exploring a space to be curious, pay more attention and listen to the subtle magic hiding in plain sight.

“Pineapple eyes” is a well-known Thai proverb that refers to seeing from many viewpoints, just as a pineapple has eyes all over it. Inspired by this idiom, we want to find out if looking through the lenses of each person's perspective makes us more compassionate—and all the more capable of wonder.

Sometimes irreverent, sometimes contemplative, each episode speaks from the head and the heart, sharing the stories of the people we work with and how they connect to facets of Mind, Nature and Sound. These intimate interviews have helped us see the world a little differently and with greater equanimity, so we’d like to share them with you.

The Pineapple Eyes is a non-chronological, freeform podcast. Listen however, whenever you like!
