Re Human Day 27
Re-inventing ourselves is the most important skill nowadays. I’m re-inventing myself by improving in 15 areas at a time. This post is part of my Re Human project.
Daily Habits
Re Human Extended Activity: Fridays is Music Production and Digital Drawing & Painting.
Music Production
Spent a bit of time adding stuff to the snippet I posted on Thursday. Then thought it would be better practice to start from scratch and create a new beat. Focusing on Quantity is very important for getting good at creating-like skills.
So I made a new beat (deep house):
Digital Drawing and Painting.
Books: I’ve been listening to The Dream Machine. Some notes from today:
Engelbart saw computers as a way to augment human intellect.
How to start doing that? Manipulating words seemed like the obvious way to start. It’s a way to manipulate your ideas. Our thoughts are based on symbols, language — so if you can see them in a screen and manipulate them, you can manipulate your ideas.
Writing: This post, code, and a daily thought (now realizing it’s related to the last note ^ on dream machine).
Fitness: My warmup, biceps, handstands, human flag practice. Recorded myself holding the human flag for around 2 seconds — thought it’ll be useful for my weekly recap or for posting on instagram as a story progression.
Meditation: According to my Muse headband, today I had less time in the “deep calm” state than yesterday but had only 24 seconds in the “active” state. I think the assessment is very dependent on the initial calibration one has to do at the beginning of each session.
Piano: Been learning La La Land’s Sebastian and Mia’s theme!
Soccer trick juggling: Today I was able to do a couple around the worlds, but it’s still not a consistent thing.
Connections, takeaways and Ideas for tomorrow
Excited to send my weekly present tomorrow. Today I spent a while putting it together.
