December 17, 2020 at 6:01 PM Because thinking minds are different from evolving organisms and self-assembling molecules, we cannot expect them to use the same means—mechanisms like genetic drift and thermal vibrations—to overcome deep valleys in the landscapes they explore. But they must have some way to achieve the same purpose. As it turns out, they have more than just one—many more. But one of the most important is play. – Nautilus Tags: Art, Ideas, 12.16.2077 people like this. Like
December 17, 2020 at 4:01 PM “MOLAA’s collection is, to be charitable, spotty. But the bizarre claim that certain first-rate artists are “overrepresented” in the collection, which chief curator Gabriela Urtiaga offered to The Times as a rationale for trying to unload 59 works, mostly graphics, does not inspire confidence in upgrading it.” – Los Angeles Times Tags: Art, Times, Visual, MOLAA, Gabriela Urtiaga, 12.16.2093 people like this.

December 17, 2020 at 4:29 PM “Today many regard tolerance not as the willingness to allow views that some may find offensive but the restraining of unacceptable views so as to protect people from being outraged. Regarding tolerance as the demand of those who might be offended, rather than as a permission for those who might offend is to turn the idea on its head.” – The Guardian Tags: Art, Ideas, 12.13.20122 people like this.

December 17, 2020 at 2:55 PM James Grauerholz: “William was not a Buddhist: he never sought or found a “Teacher,” he never took Refuge, and he never undertook any Bodhisattva vows. He did not consider himself a Buddhist, nor — for that matter — did he ever declare himself a follower of any one faith or practice. But he did have an awareness of the essentials of Buddhism, and in his own way, he was affected by bodhidharma.” – Jan Herman Tags: Art, William, Ajblogs, Buddhist, Burroughs, 12.17.20, James Grauerholz144 people like this.

December 17, 2020 at 2:29 PM In the letter, Dramatists Play Service says that the move was partly inspired by the challenges facing the theater business posed by coronavirus.

December 17, 2020 at 3:29 PM “There is a vacuum when it comes to the representation of Latinos in U.S. culture and that vacuum gets filled by figures like Trump, who regularly vilifies Latinos, describing Mexican immigrants as criminals and “rapists.” As I’ve written in the past, the cultural arena offers little to counter to these depictions: it’s either a steady diet of stereotype (maid and drug trafficking roles in Hollywood movies) or just straight-up invisibility.” – Los Angeles Times Tags: Art, Hollywood, Los Angeles, Mike Lee, Visual, Trump, 12.17.20102 people like this.

December 17, 2020 at 1:32 PM Good talk show hosts know their job isn’t to find or interview “good guests”; it’s to build a trust relationship with their audience, cemented over years, caller after caller, day after day. Truly effective hosts like Limbaugh and Michael Savage talk to their listeners as if they’re close and trusted friends. This is a dynamic unavailable to podcasting or television, as it is impossible to replicate without live listener interaction. – The Nation Tags: Art, Media, Audience, Limbaugh, Michael Savage, 12.17.2070 people like this.

December 17, 2020 at 12:28 PM The cycle of harm perpetuated by Facebook’s scale-at-any-cost business model is plain to see. Scale and engagement are valuable to Facebook because they’re valuable to advertisers. These incentives lead to design choices such as reaction buttons that encourage users to engage easily and often, which in turn encourage users to share ideas that will provoke a strong response. – The Atlantic Tags: Art, Facebook, Ideas, 12.15.2070 people like this.
