This is the third part of a series with Lynn Davenport in Dallas on educational technology legislation in Texas, which is connected to Amplify and Learn Capital. Learn Capital set up a campus not far from the state house this spring. The firm had a video made of their launch event open house. In this […]

Yesterday I did a livestream responding to some comments that had been made on my blog, my youtube channel, and Twitter, plus a recent email exchange about the RFK Jr. candidacy. You can see them (not the email, because it was privately sent) below. I touched on the following topics: Pressure for unity and groupthink […]

It’s been quite a week putting out fires. I did two livestreams last night. Each is about an hour. The first addresses a language specialist in propaganda who conjectured that dark forces may be using me to manifest their “shenanigans.” In that one I go into financial astrology, the Foundation for the Study of Cycles, […]

This is a guest post by Kim MacEachern from our Letters from the Labyrinth series. April 2023 Dear Alison, It was at that moment when, sitting in the parking lot in Scottsdale and wrapping up a call with you, I noticed a row of tourists on Segways snaking down the sidewalk across the street that […]

I few weeks ago I shared a few clips from Michael Levin’s interview with Lex Fridman on bioelectricity and morphogenesis. The next day, Lorraine, who had previously contributed a two-part analysis of a book on Teilhard de Chardin and the Omega Point, reached out to say that she had a piece of writing that may […]

The day before yesterday I broke out the last hour of my livestream on persuasion techniques, which centered a critique of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s candidacy. You can watch it here. The post got a lot of comments (for my channel at least). They weren’t inflammatory, and I thank you all for that! Keep it […]

This is the stream from last night. It’s the second installment in a series Lynn Davenport, based in Dallas, and I are working on to explain the true nature of open education resources with respect to extended reality and human capital finance. Click here for part one. Slidedeck here. This part covers slides #30 to […]

I ended up doing a livestream today as part of my personal sorting out of this Substack situation. A friend passed along some information about the structure behind managed behavior change – Elaboration Likelihood Model of Persuasion. I then found a paper from BehaviorWorks Australia that provided more detail, and it explained so much about […]

I’m thinking now that what happened to me over on Celia Farber’s “The Truth Barrier” Substack was a variant on pre-bunking. If you missed the kerfluffle here’s part one, part two, and part three. Jason talks about this cognitive domain management technique in a recent video. In fact, the more I think about it, I’m […]

Very sad state of affairs over on Substack. It’s hard for me to understand what the draw is for being part of a community like that. Choose where you spend your digital minutes wisely. An author who makes accusations and won’t engage in honest dialogue doesn’t seem like such a good bargain. Thank you Cliff. […]
