The Optimism Bias

31 f 12

I’ve been reading a book called ‘The Optimism Bias‘ by Tali Sharot. In a nutshell, the premise of the book is that people tend to have a cognitive bias towards optimism, and that this bias has been naturally selected for because it helps us to get things done, to move forward, to procreate. The reality […]

On Losing Direction

31 f 12

To ‘lose direction’ can literally mean just that. You are going somewhere, in a particular direction, let’s say, south for example. Suddenly, you’re not sure which way is up, your internal compass is on the fritz, your phone is out of batteries (hence no sat nav) and you forgot your A to Z because you […]

New Years Movie Mayhem

7 f 12

Here’s my round-up of this past year’s best films, by category, as invented by moi, which is fine, since all categories are constructs anyway! BEST DANCE MOVIE ‘Pina’ (see my review HERE) BEST DANCE MOVIE – Honourable Mention PUSS IN BOOTS. PIB isn’t really a dance movie, but it does have a few dance sequences […]

A Winged Victory For the Sullen & The Trees Grew Emotions and Died

3 f 12

If you’re in the mood for some music to work to, check out the excellent A Winged Victory for the Sullen. If you don’t like Sigur Ros or ambient music by the likes of Brian Eno, you probably won’t like this. If you DO like that sort of stuff…you’re in luck! For great experimental electronica […]

Moneyball, Margin Call and Melancholia…or (it’s the end of the world as we know it)

3 f 12

Yes, yes, my penchant for alliteration continues unabated into the new year…. And yes, all three of the aforementioned films have titles that begin with the letter ‘M’, but they also share an exploration of the end of worlds, both metaphorically (Moneyball and Margin Call) and literally (Melancholia). MONEYBALL (one of the year’s best films […]

New Year News

3 f 12

Well, autumn came and went. I was in the US for a good portion of it, mainly writing, although I had a few social fires to help put out as well. I’ve been back in the UK for a quiet Christmas with my equal half, the majority of which was spent cooking and playing the […]
