Jamie Catto (Faithless co-founder) and Duncan Bridgeman (ex Take That producer) have set out to make a multimedia project, the duo have made a film documenting all their travels on which they asked various musicians to contribute as well as speaking to some of the worlds most interesting celebrities, writers and influential figures including Noam Chomsky, Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra, Gabrielle Roth, Ram Das, Susan Sarandon and Billy Connolly asking them to give advise or just speak about different matters be it personal or universal issues.

Musicians who worked on the project include Michael Stipe, Alanis Morissette, Maxi Jazz, Carlos Santana as well as African tribal and Bedouin musicians, Chinese rappers, Gabonese Pygmies and Tuvan throat singers.

'We're on a mission to make self-reflection hip for just a moment, just long enough to save us.' Jamie Catto
