Bob Hambly, Creative Director, Hambly & Woolley design firm in Toronto: examines the topic of observation in this video presentation – how we’ve become visually complacent, how we are manipulated to see certain things, how important it is to have good observational skills, and how we can go about improving them. This is something we can all get better at. And the better we get at observing, the better we will get at generating creative ideas.
“Roughly 25 years ago, it took five full workdays to view the amount of information we now observe in 24 hours. Due to this increase of information, our minds have become very proficient at tuning out to prevent an information overload – making us lazy observers.”
An excellent and engaging presentation. The remedy for increasing our observational skills is of course meditation and mindfulness – see my posts – Mindfulness – Experiencing Reality in HD – and Effortless Meditation – on how to get started.
