This is a new series from Knock This Door podcast where we talk about certain human behaviors. This life is nothing but a mix of random choices science makes and selective choices we make. How do we perceive choices around us and how do we make decisions in picking one thing over another? Let us find out.

We invented numbers to count the objects around us. May be we wanted to know who has more and who has less. From the invention of numerical system, mathematics started to evolve. However, this invention we are going to talk about, took mathematics, modern science, engineering and astronomy to an unimaginable place. In this podcast, we are going to talk about the significance of the unnatural number called Zero. (References: scientificamerican.com, vox.com, livescience.com, zerorigindia.com) 

Imagine walking barefoot wherever you go, now think about the significant role that shoes play in our day-to-day life. This invention is so important for the human kind who loves to take every possible step in the world to rejoice life as we know it. (References: everyfactever.com)

Modern human can happily sit back and celebrate birthdays, anniversaries on a specific date in a year. We can identify seasons by months and perfectly plan to plant crops and harvest. Thanks to several civilizations who resolved a great puzzle from the sky which lead to the invention of calendar. (References: timeanddate.com, timecenter.com, historyworld.net, history.com)

The concept of money is fascinating, the soul of world trade including our next dinner lies under currency of any form we use. From cattle & grains to bits & bytes, money has several faces. For any country to not face an economic failure, the value of its money should neither be in surplus nor in deficit. (References: Investopedia.com, Mint.com, Telegraph.co.uk)

One of the best ways to trace the human history is to follow back the path we took in the last several years. It is true in many ways that roads have directly reflected the conditions and attitudes of human life times and the closely knit cultures across the world (References: roadandtrack, britannica.com, globalcitizen.org)

Time to talk about another invention that revolutionized our civilization. It continues to play several roles in culture and human lives - from being a tool to record history and spread education to being an unassuming domestic product such as the paper napkin. (References: TheGuardian, Stlcc.edu)

We are going to talk about the characteristics of color and how it is perceived by us on a day to day basis. We have used color to express art, emotions and much more. (References: Canva, Aeon)

We cannot talk about culture without one of the primary invention of human race. We have become social animals because of this amazing ability to listen and share stories. Let’s talk about Language. (References: SIL International, Ethnologue, The origin of Language by Edward Vajda)
