Antipixel: The Radius of Human Experience:
Here’s a little game I sometimes play when I’m bored. Works best in the denser urban environments, but you can play it anywhere. It helps to believe that pretty much anything a human can do is being done by someone somewhere at any given moment (although you can switch this thought off when you’re done).
Imagining yourself at the centre of a circle, how far do you have to expand the radius of that circle until you’ve encompassed all of human experience?
Great post. I tried to find a good way to work it into my site for a few minutes, then just decided a quote and a link would work just fine. I probably do that too much, but here, it seemed the best approach.
