And everything I did to try to improve it made it worse, until I had created a big mess. I wanted to tear it up and start over. I wanted to hide my terrible mess. No one would be the wiser if I just excluded it.If left it out, I would save myself from embarrassment. I saw Asteroid City last night...

As an AI Developer and Artist, I’m always thrilled to find new ways of combining and mixing these two realms. Lately, with the introduction of text-to-image models and the exponential growth of the generative AI sector, the possibilities to experiment are almost endless. Integrating AI...

Last April, I went on my first solo trip and decided to do a self-experiment. I brought a disposable film camera, the Fujifilm Simple Ace, and asked myself: Knowing I only had 27 shots, what would I capture? What things, places, or scenes would I strongly want to hold in my hand? And what wo...

Jose referred to the work of  Daniel Vacanti  and  troy.magennis , and there is further reading and learning from those guys, as well as the Kanban Guide for Scrum Teams of course. On the night, we had some great conversations about how we could use these metrics...

So I’m lying at the corner of Wellington and York with my stuff round me and watching the fucking office workers avert their eyes as they trudge up the street to their 50 storey prisons. Cunts. They think they are so much better than me. They think I’m dirty, a druggie, crazy. They think...

There. I can now retire on this monumental achievement and display of scientific, political and economic prowess. Of course, I’m joking but then again I am not. The very simple act of reading this passage so far has contributed to the problems we face but you can’t ‘offset’ t...

Two people that I eminently respect recommend that I read “The Surrender Experiment” by Michael Singer. I love a good book recommendation, so I was excited to dive in. And what I found was one of the worst, and most dangerous, books I’ve ever read. No, I’m not kidding. And...

The social experiment began with the creation of four powerful cardboard signs, each bearing a message aimed at challenging preconceived notions and fostering a sense of interconnectedness. The first sign carried the words “We are them,” reminding passersby of our shared humanity and enc...

In early December of 2016, I began an experiment. I wanted to find out whether transitioning from male to female would cure my depression. With support from my therapist, I found a doctor and began a regimen of testosterone blockers and estrogen. A month later, blood work showed my levels of both ho...

I conjecture that there is an inherent relationship between what we know of as scientific experiments and the entire field of science. That is, the entire field of science can be viewed as a single large metaphysical experiment, or a meta-scientific experiment. Read More

With all the current talk of psychology being “crazy” and experiments being too dangerous, I’m going to inform you of Zimbardo’s Prison Experiment and give you a window into how dangerous experiments were before the APA psychology codes were introduced. My question for the to...

This is a thought experiment in two parts. Here’s the first. It’s 1942, and a small group of Jewish prisoners at Dachau have stolen some surplus weapons from a shed when the guards weren’t looking, and the door was unlocked. They’ve hidden the guns near the outer edg...

The last star in the universe hurled toward the singularity sending its final bit of mass down the rabbit hole to join the trillions of trillions of stars already there. The stars of an entire universe compressed smaller than the size of an atom. Once the final star disappeared beyond the event hori...

Ata test kitchen for a startup called Wildtype in the trendy San Francisco neighborhood known as Dogpatch, the saku, or “block” of salmon is visually a stunner. The most striking feature is the white striations between layers of orange flesh that serve as connective tissue. I say &l...

I had never tried a psychedelic in my life. And I wasn’t doing it for the thrill. Copious scientific and anecdotal reports of their potential became too powerful to ignore. Where would I get them? Who would support me? What if something went wrong? It was during the pandemic — I had t...
