"Flow," he argued, was a state of mind, a level of concentration in which outside stimuli, even time itself, seem to fall away. The psychologist who made the concept a cultural phenomenon has died at 87. https://t.co/Ww9huH7RJb
Thinking about grad school next year? Interested in visualization, human/AI interaction, computational art?
Consider Harvard! @wattenberg and I are building up our lab and will be looking for students.

@DH_at_UVA Just realized that the mention of @DigYok really should have included mention of our great and glorious IT specialist Doug Ross, as well as the much missed Robbie Bingler, who put forth much effort and thought into the plumbing and wiring and skeletal structure of the project.
