"The Tudors" on Showtime: tactile living

I recently added Showtime to my basic cable for one reason: "The Tudors" miniseries. It's handsome, gripping, intrigue-ful, well-acted, well-funded, and multilayered. I'm surprised that I can watch scenes over again (digital cable allows this through "OnDemand") and see new details.

Recently I've been exploring 'the senses' - what gives our senses life, and what is 'living'? Granted, this is television -- but I've been struck with how deeply the characters, scenes, and subjects are vibrantly textured. Even the 16th century church music composer, musician and singer Thomas Tullis is portrayed as a frazzle-haired urchin whose talents charm the court. (Granted, there are some historical licenses taken with the show, but it's TV, not historical interpretation)

Here is a 'music video' promo for the series. I loved the scenes and the music of Evanescence. Enjoy. Think about tactile living: living in all your senses.

Thanks to Showtime for providing this little graphic.
