Sarah Perry on Insight:
A special type of intelligence is the organization of complexity into a simpler, less resource-intensive form. The experience of such a compression is what is called “insight,”via Cartographic Compression by Sarah Perry at ribbonfarm.
Iain S. Thomas on Art and Empathy:
[nice artists] create because they want to describe the world to others so that they won’t make the same mistakes or so that they’ll know what to look out for. They’re extreme empaths and if you’re extremely empathetic, you’re extremely good at communicating and art is about communicating a feelings from a thing to a person.via Intentional Dissonance by Iain S. Thomas.
