[Andrew P Street] is comedy the new news?via How Donald Trump killed comedy - What happens to satire when the world of politics is a joke? by Andrew P Street.[ Dan Ilic ] Politics is often dense and obfuscates intent, so there's ... value in breaking down, in simple, clear language, what the hell is going on.
Science is not a collection of absolute truths. Scientists are delighted when we are wrong because it means we have learnt something.via Professor Brian Cox on elections: don't vote for politicians who say they have all the answers by Marcus Strom.
The thing about the future is that is actually already here [..]via Douglas Coupland at Konica Minolta's Spotlight Live by Douglas Coupland.
You can observe a lot by just watchingvia The future is not what it used to be. by Mike Peters.
Such a simple and true observation.
Did not even notice the face in the background when I made this photo. Only later did I observe it. Reminds me of this Poster I took on the T Station at Harvard in Boston in 2011.
fearlessness (*) is not the same as the absence of fear (*).via We’re both scared but for different reasons (*) by Jeremy Rolleston (*).
The fearless person is well aware of the fear she faces.
The fear, though, becomes a compass, not a barrier.
It becomes a way to know what to do next, not something that has to be denied or an evil demon to be extinguished.
When we deny our fear, we make it stronger (*). And trying to deny it doesn’t make us fearless (*).
But acknowledging your fear and moving on / choosing a new [brave (*)] mindset (*) is one that permits it to exist without strengthening it or letting it control (*) you.
Success is, of course, as an internal factor – a connection that we, or I, have made with whatever I am searching for.which leads onto a rather interesting observation about the relationship between Success (*) and Searching (*):
Sometimes it can be elusive.
Sometimes it can be immediately self-evident.
The expression. The pose. The posturing. There can be windows that open up that are surprises.
But it’s that connection.
It’s the connection between having a sense of what you are working for, but not really having it defined well enough, so you always have to search, you always have to dig a little bit, it’s always a little bit unknown what you are looking for.
If you know what you are looking for I’m not sure what the value of finding it is.via INTERVIEW: “An Interview with Bruce Wrighton” (1988) (*) by Sean Phelan.
That is to say, I’m not sure what’s the value of doing the search. At that point that part of you has been ‘played out’ so to speak.
If I find myself making the same images over and over again,
I begin to suspect that I have to dig a little harder or deeper to find what the next level of mystery is in a particular subject matter or go on to a different one.

All you have to do is stay calm and go as hard as possible from the start to the finish. It's quite simple, [..]Cadel's pre-stage words were almost prophetic.
You are only riding a bike from point A to point B, but in terms of technique there is so much in terms of pedalling and breathing, and there are the corners. Just concentrating and riding out beyond your limit is very taxing.
