  1. A quotation from Douglas Adams

    If you try and take a cat apart to see how it works, the first thing you have on your hands is a nonworking cat.

  2. Langage des signes

    On entend souvent dire qu’il faut savoir découvrir les signes qui se trouvent sur notre chemin pouvant nous aider à nous guider. Tout est là, mais comment les repérer, et découvrir le sens ? Malheureusement, il y a rarement une grande affiche lumineuse qui nous indique qu’il faut continuer dans cette direction. Les seules qui construisent ce type d’affiche ce sont les vendeurs d’illusions. Ils tentent d’attirer au lieu de guider. Et si pour découvrir et décoder les signes […]

  3. A quotation from Galileo

    But I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason and intellect has intended us to forego their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them. He would not require us to deny sense and reason in physical matters which are set before our eyes and minds by direct experience or necessary demonstrations.

    Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) Italian astronomer, physicist, engineer, polymath
    Letter (1651) to Christina of Lorraine, Grand Duchess of Tuscany [tr. Drake (1957)]

  4. Derniers fragments

    C'est du fond de mon lit que je vous parle - et si je ne suis pas en mesure de m’adresser à une grande assistance, c'est à chacun de vous - à chacun de vous, que je parle au creux de l’oreille. Quelle émotion ! Quelle idée extraordinaire a eue Alain d’utiliser un moyen aussi simple, un téléphone, pour me permettre d’être parmi vous. Merci à lui. Merci à vous, Alain et Evelyne, pour cette longue et profonde amitié - et pour toutes ces années de persévérance. Des grandes […]

  5. Le frisson musical

    En concert, dans un casque, vous écoutez un morceau et tout d’un coup : la chair de poule, un courant d’air frais dans la nuque, l’envie de pleurer... Vous avez un frisson musical, une manifestation physique de l’émotion. Que se passe-t-il alors dans votre cerveau ?  Quel genre de musique provoque ce frisson ? Est-ce que la musique serait une sorte de drogue ? Quelques réponses avec le professeur en psychologie cognitive, Emmanuel Bigand et les artistes Anne Paceo, Cristian […]

  6. And then I took the Metro and returned to Jor Bagh Metro Station from where I took and auto to the India Habitat Center. Very colorful!

    Again, using the Pocket Dispo.

  7. The street is a hard place. We can yap as much as we wish to, and claim we are a world leader but, we are not.

  8. I went from the garden to Connaught Place in Delhi. One man had exited a masjid where he went to pray. The others focused on their business. Again, using the Pocket Dispo.

  10. A creative idea often sounds ridiculous for about five minutes.

    Then you try it.

    That small gap between “this probably won’t work” and actually testing it is where a surprising amount of good work begins.

  11. There is a tiny park near my CA's office, and I went in there to take a few photos with my Pocket Dispo. I copied the images to the Adobe Cloud and applied a community preset. This one, creating surreal images, caught my eye.

  19. The Missing Piece of Education

    Education, in whatever institution you are in, lacks the system that actually contributes to your success. Be it in schools, or universities, you largely have to self-study to ace in life. This defeats the purpose of coming into institutions where you already have great infrastructure but largely under-utilized. Peripheral knowledge is available for free on the internet. One can argue you need peers to push you forward and develop social skills. But you can get that through community clubs as well. Peer network shouldn’t be the only reason to enter universities. What we should be coming to institutions for is to understand the nuances, the tactile knowledge. How often you go to your professors to understand a concept you couldn’t get through the internet? How often our syllabus covers topics not available online? We are killing the natural curiosity of students and making them machines. We no longer pause and observe our surroundings, the world, the people, nature. Life is boring, but we’ve now filled it with constant dopamine. When did you last sat with someone in silence? Yes, that’s a thing, when you come together, don’t talk, don’t use your phones, maybe read a book, and still feel quality time spent together. All of this is not difficult to create. You don’t need policies for this. It’s not alien to our culture. University administrations can make such an environment very much possible. Especially the new and upcoming ones. We need a lot of hands-on experimentation, and I don’t mean this as a career training, but as life skills. Professors shouldn’t be there for just attendance and grades. They are experts in their field, and each student must take leverage and advantage of that specialization.
