I'm fascinated by the eyes and what they reveal about our perception.
I spent four years measuring it at NIH, Oxford, and UC Davis (+ a lot of other places). Now I'm building Noddr into the safety glasses industrial crews already wear.
Things I always highly highly highly recommend dedicating time to
This book has had so much influence over how I communicate. Trusting people is not a flaw.
To assume the best about another is the trait that has created modern society. Those occasions when our trusting nature gets violated are tragic. But the alternative — to abandon trust as a defense against predation and deception — is worse.
I was 14 when I first watched this, and it has stayed with me ever since. I hope to meet Adichie in person one day. She has shaped so much of how I listen and how much I trust anything that describes a person in a single sentence.
I would like to end with this thought: that when we reject the single story, when we realize that there is never a single story about any place, we regain a kind of paradise.
