@paisatish @GabrielleNYC there isn’t an official recording I’m afraid. But much of what he covered can be found in previous talks online.

Last Friday I caught @rorysutherland's talk "Why you have to believe in magic" at @Fal_AMATA. A brilliant and funny presentation about how humans post-rationalise and the importance of "climbing mount silly" to make creative leaps. The event was sponsored by ‘BE good’, Falmouth.

@SoapboxConcepts So cool to see. Thanks for sharing and congrats on such a cool soapbox.

In #theMatrix, if the robots were smart, they would have set the simulation in the 1800s when there was no tech. No-one would have questioned whether they were living in a simulation because everyone was still riding horses to work #movieplotholes

Creators *need* to be self-indulgent because if you aren’t, you’ll end up making something that is technically correct in every way but also painfully boring, mediocre, and forgettable

@danamarykuoch Thanks Dana 🙏 #paddymounter has always been an illustration idol of mine since I was a child.

Twitter is like walking into a room full of people arguing then getting sucked into the argument and wasting hours of your life.

In his lifetime, Eric Carle wrote and illustrated more than 70 children's books.

He didn't get started until he was 40.

Growing up in WW2, he felt the world was too gloomy — so he used bright colors to cheer kids up.

He gave us the Very Hungry Caterpillar and much more.

RIP.

A good way to tell elder millennials from younger ones is to shriek-sing “PEACHES COME FROM A CAN” at them and see what happens
