Wednesday, April 28th, 2010Being wise has long been a sought after attribute in humans in our society. For centuries, many ‘wise’ people have been lauded singly for such a trait. But what is wisdom, and how are we all working on being wise every day in our lives? Perhaps the kid in The Matrix said it best. Maybe […]
Don’t force it.
Monday, April 26th, 2010There is a great scene in the movie Oceans 12, where George Clooney and Brad Pitts’ characters are walking together in Amsterdam brainstorming ideas to make $198M in 2 weeks to pay back the casino owner they stole from in the first movie, Oceans 11. The two are career criminals, smart con-men that run elaborate heists […]
Annotate the Game
Sunday, January 3rd, 2010I was having breakfast with good friend Amir Nissen this morning and we got to talking about how to learn, learn well and learn quickly.
Fast learning is not a particularly new concept - Tynan recently got a tutor to speed him through learning Japanese whilst Tim Ferris took to learning his language through martial arts. Both […]
Trampoline videos now online
Friday, December 18th, 2009It’s with great pleasure that I’m able to write this blog post today and point everyone to the new Trampoline Vimeo Channel, on Vimeo. The last Trampoline was run in late October and many of the talks shared on the day still resonate with me now. Talks like Dan Donahoo speaking about Edge Theory, Peter Spence speaking about Intergenerational Learningand, […]
Co-Preneur on Tuesday mornings
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009What are you doing on Tuesday mornings, between 9am and 12pm? Are you in Richmond around that time? Fancy doing some Co-Preneuring?I’ve recently been working on starting a business, called Indy Socks. You can see some Mission Reports that we’re posted on Ross’s site talking all about the concept. I won’t go into detail here […]
Peer producing a Trampoline presentation
Sunday, October 18th, 2009Trampoline is next week, and that’s very exciting for a whole host of reasons. Last Trampoline, I presented in a session in the afternoon on Biomimicry, but didn’t give it the justice the topic probably deserved. This time, I’m very excited to be working on a presentation with Xavier Shay which stemmed from the email discussion […]
Your skill set and the Ballet Imperial
Thursday, July 10th, 2008I recently was lucky enough to head along to the Australian Ballet Companies latest season, Ballet Imperial, at the State Theatre. The night was fantastic - I am growing an appreciation for some of the finer arts going about, especially from a performers point of view. The ballerinas performing for us that night we the […]
The Experimedia Experience: wifi, desk, ambiance
Friday, April 4th, 2008This is just a quick post I thought I would share before venturing off on a day of coffees and other meetings. I have been chilling out in the State Library today, crunching some work and the like. It has free wifi, cheap lockers to store stuff in, a free (large) desk and an ambiance […]
Time is money, life, mindfullness and such…
Monday, March 10th, 2008I came across this NT Times article link, as posted by Stoye Bowd originally here. It links very closely with the idea of Mindfulness which I have been learning about now for the past 3-4 months. It’s an ongoing process, and also links well with what Col recently said at the Ergo blog. Many links, […]
Microsoft vs Google on my laptop
Friday, February 8th, 2008I just downladed Skype as my laptop hasn’t had it on since it was wipped. In doing so, I was asked if I wanted (read, forced to) upload the Google toolbar to my Internet Explorer. Well, for those of you familar with the Vista opperating system…and the famous Allow, Allow, Allow Microsoft vs Mac ads, […]
