Kara Swisher recently interviewed tribologist Jennifer Vail about the role of friction (on her podcast)... Kara isn’t a fan of the ‘remove all friction at all costs’ Silicon Valley mantra, as she points out, sex without friction wouldn’t be good.
Also, the gamification of biohacking, when it comes to the numbers, is insidious. Tracking to understand, rather than trying to reach a ‘high score’, is incredibly hard to do, even with the best will in the world. I had to stop wearing my watch at night, for a while, to reset my brain after falling down that hole.
I feel like we are in this together, with many of the same beliefs and vulnerabilities. Feels good to not be alone. Hope you're well. I've also enjoyed your honest take on the fall of photography as an art form over the years. Keep sharing...
