@estherswilliams What's that thing called when something changes when it's observed?

Some people are using Lullability to relax before bedtime.

More a case of deep sleep, perhaps, than of deep blue.

25 years ago a human could still beat a supercomputer at chess. On February 10th, 1996 Russian world chess champ Garry Kasparov defeated IBM’s chess-playing computer Deep Blue.

But tech fought back just one year later, and a re-programmed Deep Blue won the rematch.

I’m experimenting with themed Lullability relaxation recordings, so in commemoration of today’s anniversary of Kasparov vs. Deep Blue, this one’s example words are all inspired by chess and computers.

I’m not sure at the moment, but this Carole King-inspired video could only be available today, so check it out while you can, if you can.

Before it’s too late, in fact.

It’s Carole King’s birthday.

Born on February 9th 1942, the legendary singer-songwriter co-wrote her first number one hit “Will You (Still) Love Me Tomorrow,” for The Shirelles when she was just 18 years old.

In a survey over 80% said watching the first Lullability YouTube video made them feel more peaceful. More than a third of them reported that it made them feel *much more* peaceful.

Encouraging early findings after inviting people to try this little video (audio recording really) designed to relax.

82% said it made them feel more peaceful. 38% of these said it made them feel MUCH more peaceful.

It will help me greatly if you can complete this short (one-question) survey after you experience it, please.

How are you sleeping? The pandemic is affecting sleep for millions of us.

Google just said that in the past year insomnia was searched more than ever before.

I’ve experimented with a wide array of potentially sleep-inducing sounds every night since July.

A short thread.

I’d love you to experience its potential as a simple way to feel more peaceful during the day.

If you have 15 minutes, please try it via this YouTube video. Please DON’T listen while driving or operating machinery!
