Are We There Yet?
We’re in the midst of the most important shift in civilization since the invention of the steam engine — the pervasive application of intelligence into every aspect of the world.

“In the purest artistic sense, without ‘edges’ - a point of contrast where light meets dark - an object (and I would venture, concept) has no form.”

Simple analytics, done right, and with the existing treasure trove of data can yield tremendous value.
The application of analytics at scale will require organizational changes.
Wirearchy is “a dynamic two-way flow of power and authority, based on knowledge, trust, credibility and a focus on results, enabled by interconnected people and technology”.

Intelligence
An individual has a theory of mind that imputes mental states to himself and to others.
(David Premack & Guy Woodruff, 1978:515)
In assuming that other individuals want, think, believe, and the like, one infers states that are not directly observable.
(David Premack & Guy Woodruff, 1978:525)
Inferences about another individual are not taught, as are reading or arithmetic; their acquisition is more reminiscent of that of walking or speech.
(David Premack & Guy Woodruff, 1978:525)
The localisation of brain regions involved in normal attribution of mental states and contextual problem solving is feasible …
(Paul Fletcher et al, 1995:109)
Retrieval rarely provides a complete and precise account of prior events; rather, recall often includes both veridical and erroneous information.
We live in a world where cultures everywhere are under assault. Culture is being homogenized and flattened. Younger people, in particular, are being formed and informed by what comes in on a computer screen. Their view is of a glossy and often glib digital world; a consumerist way of life vastly different from their own roots and distant from the natural world.

When 20-year-old Franz Liszt heard the Italian violinist Nicolo Paganini play, he was so stunned he made a resolution to become the “Paganini of the Piano.”
Liszt revolutionized the face of public performance a… and became “the model for every performing concert pianist since the 1840s.”
All in all, I have come to feel that my central interest is in data analysis, which I take to include, among other things: procedures for analyzing data, techniques for interpreting the results of such procedures, ways of planning the gathering of data to make its analysis easier, more precise or more accurate, and all the machinery and results of (mathematical) statistics which apply to analyzing data.
***** **** is a revolutionary search and analytics application that integrates video and data in a simple and intuitive interface. By leveraging artificial intelligence, ***** **** allows coaches and analysts to quickly find clips and analyze complex patterns within a game, streamlining the process of assessing a team’s strengths and weaknesses.
My own experiences and observations suggest there can be a disproportionate amount of time analysing, editing and preparing video clips for the “classroom”, in comparison to the time spent thinking about and designing purposeful (perhaps even creative!) on-field activities and sessions.
In every type of communication we have there is a certain amount of relevant information to us, the signal, and there’s a certain amount of irrelevant information to us, the noise.

The T-Shaped Technologist combines technical knowledge and experience with professional skills, and personal behaviours and qualities which will include leadership, enterprise, and a drive for innovation.
The introduction of the Sorting Room has also had a pervasive effect on the wider organisational culture. There is a greater emphasis for the executives to work as a single team, rather than the traditional siloed approach. This has led to a greater understanding of each other’s problems, and a collective ownership of responsibility.
Design is the art of the making the complex clear, the disordered ordered, the unusable usable.

… will bring together the best researchers from around the world and a range of disciplines to tackle complex problems around artificial intelligence, data and technology and managing their impact on humanity.
“we need to keep reasserting the importance of people, and the diversity of our lived experiences, into our conversations about technology and the future. It’s easy to get seduced by all the potential of the new and the wonders it promises. There is a lot of hype and not so much measured conversation.” Link
Stimulation of the Posterior Cortical-Hippocampal Network Enhances Precision of Memory Recollection (Aneesha Nilakantan et al, 2017)
Binding among select episodic elements is altered via active short-term retrieval (Donna Bridge and Joel Voss, 2015)
Active retrieval facilitates across-episode binding by modulating the content of memory (Donna Bridge and Joel Voss, 2014)
Could interventions in the HPM network reduce certain memory precisely, and erase unwanted memory ... and such allow for the “un-learning” of “dark memories”?
