Something To Think About Series #163 Thought of the day from Venerable Robina Courtin
You can't deal with Hardly Relevant or Losing and Dying. You must be paid at least a deposit in advance. You must have "non-cancellable" under terms and conditions. You have to deal with a legitimate buyer. (I'm a buyer, I just don't have the budget.) The difference between budget and money. Don't argue over small matters and fall into the legal trap. Meet whomever is a stakeholder, especially in small businesses. Conceptual agreement ends with pouring concrete. Don't sacrifice and compromise personal issues. Don't give off "deal vibes". Always give options with value based fees. Always set DTA. Discuss outcomes not "deliverables". Create value with the buyer (that's how to increase fees). Never do a "pilot". Never do pro-bono for a for-profit. Never give a lower fee to sample your work. Do your homework. Act like a peer of the buyer.
Epistemic status: Reasonably confident in the basic mechanism. Have you noticed that you keep encountering the same ideas over and over? You read another post, and someone helpfully points out it's just old Paul's idea again. Or Eliezer's idea. Not much progress here, move along. Or perhaps you've been on the other side: excitedly telling a friend about some fascinating new insight, only to hear back, "Ah, that's just another version of X." And something feels not quite right about that response, but you can't quite put your finger on it. I want to propose that while ideas are sometimes genuinely that repetitive, there's often a sneakier mechanism at play. I call it Conceptual Rounding Errors – when our mind's necessary compression goes a bit too far . Too much compression A Conceptual Rounding Error occurs when we encounter a new mental model or idea that's partially—but not fully—overlapping [...] ---Outline:(01:00) Too much compression(01:24) No, This Isnt The Old Demons Story Again(02:52) The Compression Trade-off(03:37) More of this(04:15) What Can We Do?(05:28) When It Matters--- First published: March 26th, 2025 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/FGHKwEGKCfDzcxZuj/conceptual-rounding-errors --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Episode 217: This week on Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, John Jackson and Emma Lindley-Thompson from Ambition Institute return to explore the next extract from their expert edit—this time, focusing on concreteness fading and its role in mathematics teaching.We discuss: The relationship between procedural knowledge and conceptual understanding and how this influences mathematics instruction. The challenge of premature reliance on abstract symbols and how teachers can strike the right balance between concrete and abstract representations. The debate over concrete representations—do they make abstract ideas clearer, or do they hinder transfer to new contexts? Key implications for teacher professional development and how educators can implement concreteness fading effectively in the classroom.Whether you're a maths specialist, a primary educator, or a leader supporting professional development, this episode provides valuable research-backed insights to enhance mathematical understanding in your teaching.If you enjoy this episode, please support us by subscribing to our YouTube channel, leaving a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, or making a donation via www.ko-fi.com/tdape.

Conceptual metaphor is a theory in cognitive science that claims understanding and problem-solving often (but not always) happen via systems of metaphor. I present the case for it, and also expand on the theory in the light of previous episodes on ecological and embodied cognition. This episode is theory. The next episode will cover practice.This is the beginning of a series roughly organized around ways of discovering where your thinking has gone astray, with an undercurrent of how techniques of literary criticism might be applied to software documents (including code). Books I drew uponAndrew Ortony (ed.), Metaphor and Thought (2/e), 1993 (four essays in particular: see the transcript).Lakoff and Johnson, Metaphors We Live By, 1980. (I worked from the first edition; there is a second edition I haven't read.)Two of the Metaphor and Thought essays have PDFified photocopies available:Reddy's "The Conduit Metaphor – A Case of Frame Conflict in Our Language About Language"Lakoff's "The Contemporary Theory of Metaphor"Other things I referred toHelper T cellsRichard P.

Send me a message.In this episode, I delve deeper into the forms of knowledge that underpin design and technology education. Building on McCormick's conceptual and procedural knowledge framework, I propose a more nuanced approach that considers design knowledge and technological knowledge as existing on a spectrum.I explore how these knowledge types can be visualised as intersecting axes, creating four quadrants that help teachers plan their curriculum more effectively. This framework isn't meant for pupils but serves as a planning tool for teachers to develop knowledge systematically over time.Drawing on Vincenti's work on engineering knowledge, I highlight the importance of design criteria and design instrumentalities – the tools and procedures used when designing. These elements are crucial for pupils to build their repertoire of skills and understanding as outlined in the National Curriculum.The reality of diminishing teaching time for D&T presents significant challenges for delivering the curriculum comprehensively. This framework offers a way to make informed decisions about what to include and exclude whilst ensuring pupils' design and technology capability continues to develop.How might you use this knowledge framework to review your current planning? Could mapping your curriculum against these knowledge types reveal gaps or opportunities for deeper learning? Join the conversation and share your thoughts on how we might better structure D&T knowledge in our teaching.Look out for the next episode where I'll be discussing the often-overlooked but central role of values in design and technology education.Acknowledgement:Some of the supplementary content for this podcast episode was crafted with the assistance of Claude, an AI language model developed by Anthropic.

In this episode, we explore the concept of "conceptual dyslexia" with Samuel West, the founder of the Museum of Failure. We discuss how this term illuminates the cognitive processes of creative thinkers who connect diverse concepts, enhancing our understanding of the world. Samuel shares insights on navigating creativity amidst uncertainty, emphasizing the delicate balance between comfort and critical thinking. Our conversation delves into the influence of context on identity and behavior, revealing how we adapt in different environments. One standout moment is Samuel's introduction of "Failure No. 5," a perfume that embodies failure, celebrating the creative potential found in setbacks. We also challenge contemporary marketing norms, contemplating the possibility of launching products without social media's influence. This episode invites listeners to embrace resilience and curiosity, inspiring a deeper appreciation for the intricacies of creativity and personal growth.
In Poverty and Wealth in East Africa: A Conceptual History (Duke UP, 2022), Rhiannon Stephens offers a conceptual history of how people living in eastern Uganda have sustained and changed their ways of thinking about wealth and poverty over the past two thousand years. This history serves as a powerful reminder that colonialism and capitalism did not introduce economic thought to this region and demonstrates that even in contexts of relative material equality between households, people invested intellectual energy in creating new ways to talk about the poor and the rich. Stephens uses an interdisciplinary approach to write this history for societies without written records before the nineteenth century. She reconstructs the words people spoke in different eras using the methods of comparative historical linguistics, overlaid with evidence from archaeology, climate science, oral traditions, and ethnography. Demonstrating the dynamism of people's thinking about poverty and wealth in East Africa long before colonial conquest, Stephens challenges much of the received wisdom about the nature and existence of economic and social inequality in the region's deeper past.

“Any movement that aspires to be critical must be self-critical. There is value in approaching 'critical' not as an identity, a label, or a dividing line, but rather as a mode of engagement, as a virtue of philosophical and scientific thought. Critical psychiatry, if it is to embody this virtue, can only do so by insisting that it is a 'theory in the making' and by demonstrating continuous self-criticism, questioning, re-examination, and exploration of new possibilities.” - Awais Aftab, Conversations in Critical PsychiatryTo move beyond binaries in mental health, we must complicate questions such as: ‘to medicalize or not to medicalize?' or ‘is it a biological or a psychological problem?' Since psychiatrists get almost exclusively medical training, Dr. Aftab advocates for what he calls “conceptual competency,” problematizing basic assumptions about the mind and brain that can prevent clinicians from truly supporting people and safeguarding their agency. In this episode, we explore the tensions between orthodox psychiatry and its critics, the future of psychiatric diagnostics, and how learning from philosophy and neuroscience can bring fresh perspectives.In this episode we discuss: conceptual competency and challenging underlying assumptions in psychiatry ways in which critical psychiatry/psychology could benefit from being self-critical how modern neuroscience can help break down old binaries how to decide where to intervene across bio, psycho, social factors ADHD as an example of complex causal factors childhood trauma and brain/biological changes why issues in broader medical disciplines apply to psychiatry pluralism and how can disciplines can come together future of diagnostics beyond the DSM eraBioDr. Awais Aftab is clinical assistant professor of psychiatry at Case Western Reserve University and practices as a psychiatrist in Cleveland, OH, USA. His academic, educational, and public-facing work focuses on conceptual and critical issues in psychiatry. He led the interview series “Conversations in Critical Psychiatry” for Psychiatric Times, and a book adaptation has been published by Oxford University Press. He is a senior editor for the journal “Philosophy, Psychiatry, & Psychology.” He peer-reviewed work has been published in top psychiatric journals, he has written for the New York Times, and has been quoted in publications such as the LA Times, VICE News, and the Rolling Stones Magazine.

Send me a message.In this episode, I explore what research tells us about knowledge in Design & Technology education. Understanding the nature of knowledge in D&T is crucial for effective teaching and curriculum planning, so I examine both procedural and conceptual knowledge, exploring how they connect and what this means for our practice.Following our previous discussion on D&T capability, I analyse the relationship between these knowledge types, drawing from Bob McCormick's 1997 paper and wider literature. Through examples from textiles and materials, I demonstrate how procedural knowledge extends beyond following steps to understanding interconnected processes. Looking at tasks like using a sewing machine, I discuss how teachers can build pupils' procedural knowledge over time, helping them develop both technical competence and the ability to select appropriate processes.I challenge some common approaches to teaching theory and discuss how conceptual knowledge encompasses categories and relationships rather than just facts. Using examples from my teaching - including a memorable lesson about bronze - I consider how we might better structure our teaching of materials and their properties.For D&T teachers, this discussion offers insights for curriculum planning and sequencing. Whether you're developing schemes of work or considering progression, these ideas could reshape how you approach building pupils' knowledge and capability.What's your take on knowledge in D&T? How do you balance procedural and conceptual understanding in your teaching?• Examining the importance of knowledge in D&T education • Differentiating between procedural and conceptual knowledge • Discussing the interconnected nature of different teaching procedures • Highlighting the role of literature in shaping understanding • Challenging traditional views on skills vs knowledge in D&T • Illustrating practical examples of knowledge in action • Reflecting on the implications for effective curriculum planningMentioned in the showHurrell, D., 2021.

Something To Think About Series #105 Thought of the day from Venerable Robina Courtin
The rise and fall of the double album in popular music is a fascinating journey that reflects changes in artistic ambition, technology, and the music industry itself. Here's an outline of key developments: Billy Joel Killed the Double Album??? History of the Double Album (wiki) I. Introduction Definition of a double album: Typically a collection of two LPs or CDs, often featuring a cohesive concept or theme. Overview of its significance in popular music. II. The Rise of the Double Album Early Examples (1950s-1960s) Introduction in jazz and classical music as a way to showcase longer compositions. Examples: Miles Davis's Sketches of Spain (1960). First Double album of all time: Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Songbook The Concept Album Movement (Late 1960s) The Beatles' The White Album (1968): A landmark in the double album format, showcasing diverse musical styles. Pink Floyd's The Wall (1979) and other progressive rock bands embrace the format for storytelling. Artistic Expression and Ambition Double albums seen as a canvas for ambitious concepts and themes. Notable examples: The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main St. (1972) and Bob Dylan's Desire (1976). Commercial Success Major sales: Double albums often topped charts and received critical acclaim. Increased visibility of artists willing to take risks. III. The Peak of the Double Album Cultural Impact (1970s-1980s) The double album becomes a symbol of artistic integrity and ambition. Festivals and concerts: Artists using double albums to frame their live performances. Mainstream Adoption More artists from various genres (rock, pop, R&B) begin to experiment with the format. Examples: Fleetwood Mac's Tusk (1979) and Prince's Sign o' the Times (1987). IV. The Decline of the Double Album Changing Industry Dynamics (1990s) The rise of the CD as a dominant format: convenience led to a preference for shorter albums. Economic considerations: Record labels focused on singles rather than lengthy projects. Shift in Listening Habits The emergence of MTV and music videos: Visual media shifted focus from album artistry to hit singles. The rise of radio formats emphasizing shorter songs. Digital Era and Streaming (2000s-Present) Playlist culture: Listeners favor curated collections over lengthy albums. Shorter tracks dominate streaming platforms, leading to a decline in the production of double albums. V. Resurgence and Evolution Recent Trends (2010s-Present) Some artists, like Taylor Swift (The Double Album), explore the format, appealing to nostalgia and artistry. Conceptual storytelling continues in fragmented forms (e.g., extended play releases or singles). Legacy of the Double Album Influence on modern artists: Many still draw inspiration from the narrative and artistic ambitions of classic double albums. Critical appreciation: Recognition of double albums as significant artistic statements. VI. Conclusion Reflection on the evolution of the double album in the context of broader changes in popular music. Enduring legacy: While its prominence may have waned, the double album remains an important part of music history, embodying the struggle between commercial viability and artistic expression.

Creatives and artists can be roughly divided into two types: intuitive and conceptual. Many do successfully combine both styles, but I have never been able to. I am a strongly intuitive writer and have historically failed at incorporating conceptual tools, like outlining and plotting, into my practice. As part of my journey toward being a published author, though, I've been forced to consider using conceptual tools to streamline my writing process. In this episode I tell you how it's going and what I've learned. What it boils down to is that even us intuitive creatives CAN learn to successfully use conceptual tools...as long as we develop them ourselves in an intuitive way.
What comes to mind when someone talks about bringing your mind to work? Many of us might argue that you can't come to work without bringing your mind. But what does it truly mean to bring your mind to work?In this episode, we explore the concept of bringing your mind to work, derived from my book, The Spirit of Work. This idea emphasizes the integration of rational thinking in the workplace. We examine how the mind, described in Bahá'í teachings as the rational soul, engages in different types of thinking—perceptual, conceptual, and creative. Each type can be applied to tackle tasks and solve problems effectively.Additionally, we discuss the significance of mindfulness in making rational decisions and how collaborative efforts often lead to better outcomes than individual attempts. I share stories of a plant manager and an oil and gas rig manager, "Zach" (a pseudonym), who learned that inclusive leadership and seeking input from employees at all levels can result in safer, more productive, and successful work environments.Quote: “Mindlessness is a result of actions taken without any concern for their consequences. Mindfulness, on the other hand, involves using all the powers of the mind to enhance and expand the experience of the moment to its fullest and to make decisions from a fully activated rational soul.” “Thinking isn't uniform; different tasks require different types of thinking.”Bringing Your Mind to Work: For me, bringing my mind to work means using all the powers of my rational soul, both consciously and unconsciously, to solve workplace problems or accomplish tasks. It involves employing the full "toolkit" of my mind.For example:A doctor uses their mind to diagnose illnesses and prescribe remedies.A chef applies creativity to design meals.A recruiting manager uses critical thinking to identify and hire the best candidates.The Importance of Bringing Your Mind to Work:1. Collaboration: Critical thinking is often lacking, but collaborative problem-solving produces better results by leveraging diverse perspectives.For example, a plant manager who was confident in his rollout plan presented it to supervisors without seeking their input. Within minutes, they identified 13 flaws in his plan. This humbling experience demonstrated the value of expertise from those closest to the work. Initially reluctant, he eventually involved frontline employees, including those with limited English proficiency. With the help of translators, these employees provided insights that led to a robust plan, ensuring a smooth rollout with minimal issues. This experience highlighted the power of collective intelligence.2. Safety, Well-Being, Learning, and Encouragement (The "SWEL" Model): Managers often struggle with feeling unrecognized, prompting them to find ways to highlight their work without appearing boastful. Through this process, they often realize that their team members also need recognition.A "bottom-up" approach, where managers help junior staff gain visibility, fosters collaboration and a positive workplace culture.For instance, Zach, an oil and gas rig manager, exemplified humble leadership by valuing his team's skills and fostering collaboration. Recognizing his own limitations, he sought input from his team to improve communication across sites. He introduced monthly online meetings to encourage open dialogue and feedback.Zach's humility created a safe environment for sharing ideas, leading to effective solutions and stronger teamwork. His approach aligned with the SWEL model by making participation inclusive, ensuring all voices were heard, and promoting collective growth.Support the show

Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Phil Toledano, a man whose name has become synonymous with passion, creativity, and, of course, collecting. Known to many as Mr. Enthusiast, Phil is an artist, photographer, and a collector with a taste for the unconventional—his collections spanning watches & cars in a way that reflects his unique perspective on life and creativity. As an artist by trade, Phil has always approached collecting not just as a hobby but as an extension of his creative expression.Raised between London and Casablanca, his formative years gave him a truly global outlook, which is reflected in the way he curates his eclectic collection of cars and watches. In fact, it was a deeply personal moment—the day after his father passed away—that marked the beginning of his foray into car collecting, purchasing a Ferrari Dino in tribute to a man who, like him, had a profound connection to the world of art.Phil's creative journey has been anything but linear. After a career in advertising, he began to take his passion for collecting more seriously, moving from one obsession to the next, always searching for the unique and the unexpected. Phil's approach to collecting is as much about discovery and reinvention as it is about the items themselves. His own watch brand, Toledano & Chan, has garnered significant attention from collectors, affirming his place not just as a curator of fine things, but as a creator who deeply understands the culture of collecting.From the art he creates to the rare pieces he seeks, Phil's approach to life as an enthusiast is truly one-of-a-kind.So without further ado, Phil Toledano, aka Mr. Enthusiast, for Collectors Gene Radio.

In this week's basketball coaching conversation, Queens University of Charlotte head coach Grant Leonard joins the Basketball Podcast to share insights on conceptual offense, including spacing, pace and player development. Grant Leonard was hired by then-Division II Queens as an assistant coach in 2013 and promoted to associate head coach in 2016. Over seven years as an assistant coach, the team achieved a winning percentage of .837 with a 189–37 overall record, consistently ranking in the top 25, including a No. 1 ranking. Queens won the South Atlantic Conference (SAC) regular season championship three times, secured two SAC tournament titles, and made two Elite Eight appearances with Leonard on the staff. He was promoted to head coach for the 2022–23 season, Queens' first season in NCAA Division I. In his first season, Queens went 18–15 with a 7–11 record in the Atlantic Sun Conference (ASUN). Last year, his team reached the Atlantic Sun Tournament Quarterfinals for the second straight season after defeating Florida Gulf Coast University in the opening round. Leonard began his coaching career as an assistant at Shorewood High School in 2004–05. He then assisted in coaching the Washington College Shoremen in 2005–06. For the next three seasons, he was the director of basketball operations for Texas–Pan American. In 2009–10, he served as an assistant coach for the Flagler Saints. From 2011 to 2013, Leonard worked for the Paine Lions as an assistant coach, recruiting coordinator, director of skill development, and defensive specialist, helping the team achieve their first winning season in seven years in 2011–12.
One of Dave's childhood favorites, despite a fair sledding from mates, is up for scrutiny this week! And with a 16 year old Jennifer Connely heading up against a middle aged pop star, what could possibly go wrong? directed by Jim Henson, was an ambitious blend of puppetry, live-action, and cutting-edge visual effects for its time. The film was a collaboration between Henson and executive producer George Lucas, with a screenplay by Monty Python's Terry Jones. Conceptual artist Brian Froud, known for his work on The Dark Crystal, played a significant role in designing the fantastical creatures and the world of the labyrinth itself. The movie's central character, Jareth the Goblin King, was brought to life by David Bowie, who also contributed original songs to the soundtrack, adding a surreal, musical dimension to the film. With a cast that included young Jennifer Connelly and over 100 puppets, the production involved complex puppetry, animatronics, and special effects to bring the magical world to life. The film was shot primarily at Elstree Studios in the UK, where elaborate sets were built to depict the vast, dreamlike maze. Henson's Creature Shop faced technical challenges, especially with creating characters like Hoggle, a puppet requiring multiple operators to control its facial expressions and movements. Though the film was not a box office success upon release, Labyrinth gained a devoted cult following over the years, praised for its imaginative design, memorable characters, and Bowie's iconic performance. The film's mix of fantasy, music, and pioneering practical effects has since solidified its place as a beloved classic in fantasy cinema.

Conceptual papers that offer new theories are hard to write and even harder to publish. You do not have empirical data to back up your arguments, which makes the papers easy to reject in the review cycle. We are also typically not well trained in theorizing, and there isn't even a clear process to theorizing we could learn or follow. Does that mean that we shouldn't even try to write theory papers? We ponder these questions, figure out what is so hard in writing conceptual papers – and share a few tricks that might help if you still wanted to write such a paper.

stanley brouwn is one of the most enigmatic and elusive artists of this century. brouwn created performative conceptual experiments in identity, perception, scale, and relation, among other topics. Almost as important as his conceptual practice is his refusal to share biographical information and requests for his work to never be photographed, replicated, or even analyzed. In other words, what we don't know about brouwn is almost as important as what we do know. Host Dr. Donna Honarpisheh is joined by Adrienne Edwards, the Ingalls Speyer Family Senior Curator and Associate Director of Curatorial Programs at the Whitney Museum, E.C. Feiss, Assistant professor of modern and contemporary art at Providence College, and writer, art historian, and editor, Annie Ochmanek to discuss this enigmatic artist.
