Presentation Zen: 7 Japanese aesthetic principles to change your thinking - 0 views

  • Exposing ourselves to traditional Japanese aesthetic ideas — notions that may seem quite foreign to most of us — is a good exercise in lateral thinking, a term coined by Edward de Bono in 1967. "Lateral Thinking is for changing concepts and perception," says de Bono.
  • Beginning to think about design by exploring the tenets of the Zen aesthetic may not be an example of Lateral Thinking in the strict sense, but doing so is a good exercise in stretching ourselves and really beginning to think differently about visuals and design in our everyday professional lives.
  • Kanso (簡素) Simplicity or elimination of clutter.

  • Fukinsei (不均整) Asymmetry or irregularity.
  • Nature itself is full of beauty and harmonious relationships that are asymmetrical yet balanced. This is a dynamic beauty that attracts and engages.
  • Shibui/Shibumi (渋味) Beautiful by being understated, or by being precisely what it was meant to be and not elaborated upon.
  • The term is sometimes used today to describe something cool but beautifully minimalis
  • Shizen (自然) Naturalness. Absence of pretense or artificiality, full creative intent unforced.
  • It is not a raw nature as such but one with more purpose and intention.
  • Yugen (幽玄) Profundity or suggestion rather than revelation.
  • Datsuzoku (脱俗) Freedom from habit or formula.
  • Seijaku (静寂)Tranquility or an energized calm (quite), stillness, solitude.

Why Parents Shouldn't Feel Guilt About Their Kids' Screen Time - The Atlantic - 3 views

  • There’s a tendency to portray time spent away from screens as idyllic, and time spent in front of them as something to panic about.
  • the most successful strategy, far from exiling technology, actually embraces it.
  • if the “off” switch is the only tool parents use to shape their kids’ experience of the Internet, they won’t do a very good job of preparing them for a world in which more and more technologies are switched on every year.

  • mentors are more likely than limiters to talk with their kids about how to use technology or the Internet responsibly—something that half of mentors do at least once a week, compared to just 20 percent of limiters.
  • They’re also the most likely to connect with their kids through technology, rather than in spite of it
  • children of limiters who are most likely to engage in problematic behavior: They’re twice as likely as the children of mentors to access porn, or to post rude or hostile comments online; they’re also three times as likely to go online and impersonate a classmate, peer, or adult.
  • once they do get online, limiters’ kids often lack the skills and habits that make for consistent, safe, and successful online interactions. Just as abstinence-only sex education doesn’t prevent teen pregnancy, it seems that keeping kids away from the digital world just makes them more likely to make bad choices once they do get online.
  • While limiters may succeed in fostering their kids’ capacity for face-to-face connection, they neglect the fact that a huge chunk of modern life is not actually lived face-to-face. They also miss an opportunity to teach their children the specific skills they need in order to live meaningful lives online as well as off—skills like compensating for the absence of visual cues in online communications; recognizing and adapting to the specific norms of different social platforms and sub-communities; adopting hashtags, emojis, and other cues to supplement text-based communications; and learning to balance accountability with security in constructing an online identity.
  • We can’t prepare our kids for the world they will inhabit as adults by dragging them back to the world we lived in as kids. It’s not our job as parents to put away the phones. It’s our job to take out the phones, and teach our kids how to use them.
