Review of Are Animals Creative?

This is my second hearing of Sean Cole's lovely piece on the artistry of animals -- and I could listen again and again in a heartbeat. It's a compelling question he asks and the answers he gets, while certainly not "answering" the question, do make you think about the fine lines that separate (or don't) man and beast.
From a technical standpoint the production is flawless and the use of nat sound is creative, but the real gems in this segment are Sean's writing and delivery.
This piece would air quite naturaely in a local arts & culture program, but I can definately hear it in a newsmagazine program as well.
Well done!
