How to hacking creativity through neuroscience?

FLAGCX + Adam Horowitz, MIT Neuroscientist presents

Neuroscience - Meta-thinking - Self-Curatorship - Radical DIY Learning

First step: Neuroscience Science is one of the humanity’s greatest achievement. We must awake up to the fact that we have to be part of the story, thinking about science, and thinking about the meaning of science

as it applies to our world.

"Focus on the brain as the primary biological substrate for awareness”Anil Seth, Cognitive and Computational Neuroscientist, Editor-in-Chief of Neuroscience of

Second step: Meta-thinking / Consciousness The art of asking why and attempting to look beyond what you see on the surface.

Let’s search inside in the mind and the heart who you are - and who you want to be.

"Self-Awareness engages the neocortex (the thinking brain) in the process of emotion. It is going beyond insight into one’s moment-to-moment emotional experience; it expands into a broader domain of “self”.

" Chade Mang-Tan, Founder of Google Search Inside Yourself Institute

Second step: Conscious meditation 2min - Who you are Memories, learnings, experiences, choices, pains, etc.

2min - Who you want to be Dreams, desires, experiences, motivations, etc.

Third step: Curation Curator is the person who select, filter, interpret, organize. The word is derived from latin, and

means 'taking care’. We need to get into the habit of collecting information that’s all around us so our brains have something to work with (repertory).

Minimalism.

"In-Betweenness is a fundamental condition of our times" Homi K. Bhabha, Director of the Humanities Center at Harvard University

Don’t relax: Uncomfortability is the New Convenience

It's not just about the data, but about how we change, tweak and making better choices

based on the findings of that data

Fourth step: Radical DIY Learning Radical DIY learning is the way to bring order to inner magical and chaos

and start acting for your own purposes and bring method and commitment to your self-development.

"To make a collection is to find, acquire, organize and store items. It is also, inevitably, a way of thinking about the world."

Hans Ulrich Obrist, Curator
