To and Fro
Most of the time when we feel stuck, it’s not because we don’t have ideas.
It’s because our ideas aren’t moving.
Today I looked up the word circulation, and one part of the definition grabbed me by the collar:
“Movement to and fro or around something.”
To and fro.
It feels like the rhythm of thinking itself.
Ideas come to you — in the shower,
... See moreVincent Van Gogh on the accumulation of small things:
“Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. The trick is to focus on the first small thing. Starting small is still starting, and small beginnings often lead to extraordinary endings.”
AI is aggregated human intelligence. So it’s better to call it collective intelligence than artificial intelligence.
Emphasizing the collectivity (something built on the commons) over the artificiality (a feat of technology) gives us an entire new way to see, perceive and relate to the technology.
-via Holly Herndon, in conversation with Ezra Klein

But there appeared to be creative benefits too. Every artist I met seemed to have a sketchbook to hand,... See more

“Better note-taking” misses the point; what matters is “better thinking”
Lots of people write about solutions to the problem that Note-writing practices are generally ineffective. The vast majority of that writing fixates on a myopic, “lifehacking”-type frame, focused on answering questions like: “how should I organize my notes?”, “what kind of... See more

One: You have to train yourself to notice things. It's not 100% natural at first – it certainly wasn’t for me – but raising those antennae is a very worthwhile thing to do. And it snowballs: once I got started taking notes, I ended up taking more and more of them.
