A: I definitely came to appreciate other artists and art history more than I did just coming out of art school. I wasn’t focused on art history. I was only mildly interested, and now I’m a little bit less self-centered and more interested in what other artists have done.

Until recently, “awe” was not something that academic researchers studied.
But when Dr. Paul Piff, a social psychologist at the University of California, Irvine, became interested in the experience of awe,
he had a radical idea.
What if you could actually measure it?
What if you could design a research project that produced evidence-based data about the effect of awe on the people experiencing it?
The result was an unprecedented study led by Piff and his tea…
No day is the same, so that is one thing to keep you interested. When we’re not too busy, I get to remind myself that I work in a museum packed full of artwork, so it’s not like a stuffy old office, you know?

Hey #ctv. STOP with the auto-play videos. One, if I am interested I will click play. Two, it causes Vivaldi to white screen when it starts playing. You are the only site (so far) that somehow gets around the settings I have about auto-play. Thing is that when I see a video clips getting ready to play I just go back and don't watch or read the news article.
With recent news I'm curious about what a plagiarism detector would say about my thesis, but as a non-academic I don't have access to the tools.. Do you just upload a pdf to them?

I was not really interested in the new Onimusha game, but the positive buzz made me download it on Switch 2. It is pretty sweet. Atmospheric, looks great on Switch 2 (RE Engine) and the gameplay was not as Soulsy as I feared. Just fun Capcom-style action - at least on the lower difficulty. Now I have to see how well it runs on my BC-250 and PS5 to decide where I want to play the full game.

"The thing that concerns me most is violence, the use of force and the threat or the implementation of damage to enforce an opinion. As I said at the beginning, I'm a scientist. I relish facts. I'm interested in ideas. I'm curious about relationships. Violence is just the opposite of that. Violence is the way to gain power without ideas, and it reduces your resources, it stifles dissent and experimentation which we desperately need." — Dennis Meadows (Club Of Rome, Limits Of Growth)

Some business advertising told me I should have a “growth mindset”. I don't like that at all. I want to be interested and interesting, caring, curious, loving, engaged, learning, teaching, kind, strong, weak, and open minded.

It somehow is a condensed description of what is wrong with capitalism.

Been mostly playing Unloop, which you would think is a pretty simple game requiring not a lot of performance.
But the headset has not been performing well with it. It gets by. Slows down and drops frames as it gets latter in the loop with more actors acting.
So compared to the Quest, the Frame is more expensive, and it's worse performing, and it's battery life is worse, it's less comfortable and it needs more expensive and rare chargers.
So obviously I think the Frame is clearly better by some considerable margin, mostly because Steam is not a nightmare end-of-the-world surveillance capitalist and spook collaborator run by the word's biggest creep, whereas Facebook is that.
Instead Steam have built a device which is open for programming, and which I am interested in writing software for, and which doesn't feel pwned by the man before it even arrived.
