5-Bullet Friday — Chimp Discoveries, Lucid-Dream Tech, Sam Harris and Learning to Think, and More
|
|||
Hi All! Here is your weekly dose of 5-Bullet Friday, a list of what I’m pondering and exploring. Feel free to forward along if the spirit moves you. Article I’m reading“Chimpanzees seen self-medicating with healing plants when sick or injured” (Washington Post). Thanks to Dr. Mark Plotkin of Amazon Conservation Team for sharing this. Alternate link. From the article: Track I’m enjoying for writing“Singularity (Original)” (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music) by Stephan Bodzin. What has piqued my curiosityProphetic’s Morpheus-1. I have not tried this product, but my interest in lucid dreaming goes back to my high-school wrestling days, when I used it for performance enhancement. Here’s the one-liner about Morpheus-1: “The world’s first multi-modal generative ultrasonic transformer designed to induce and stabilize lucid dreams.” Has anyone used this device or something like it? If so, please let me know your results on X/Twitter @tferriss with #lucid. What I’m listening to a second time“A Postmortem on My Response to Covid” (SamHarris.org, YouTube) by Sam Harris on the Making Sense podcast. This might seem like an out-of-date posting, but it isn’t. This is a world-class example of how a very smart person does a postmortem on their own thinking, and I think it’s worth studying. Excellent poker players might do postgame analysis of their decision-making in similar fashion. Consider this a meta-skill that applies to practically everything. Quote I’m pondering“A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament. Its beauty comes from the fact that the author is what he is. It has nothing to do with the fact that other people want what they want. Indeed, the moment that an artist takes notice of what other people want, and tries to supply the demand, he ceases to be an artist, and becomes a dull or an amusing craftsman, an honest or a dishonest tradesman. He has no further claim to be considered as an artist.” You can complement this edition of 5-Bullet Friday with my blog post on how to lucid dream, my conversation with Sam Harris, and the latest supercombo podcast episode, featuring bestselling author Neil Gaiman and design powerhouse Debbie Millman. |
