Every Wednesday I share five things I liked and think you might like too. Here are this week’s five things…
- Two great pieces on having ideas. A 5-Step Technique for Producing Ideas and How to have an idea (this one's my favourite!)
- More wisdom from Seth Godin (he's a regular feature here!). The chance of a lifetime.
- I often like to try to imagine what the future will be like. Where technologies like artificial intelligence, driverless cars and virtual reality will take us, and how they'll change our lives. Last week, I came across the article 'Speak, Memory'. It's a fascinating read about something I'd not given much thought to at all. How the technologies that help shape our lives, change our relationship with death. It might sound morbid, but it's a brilliant piece that's well worth reading. — "When her best friend died, she rebuilt him using artificial intelligence"
- Anohni on art, corporations and the music industry. Her thoughts on the state of the music industry particularly resonated with me. (Don't be put off by the weird text formatting or colour scheme of the website!)
- "Yes!" to all of these. 33 thoughts on reading by Austin Kleon.
That's all for this week. If you liked this, check out my previous Five Things posts or sign up to receive future posts in your inbox.
