[FRIAM] Experts explaining stuff at multiple levels of difficulty

[Nick Thompson]

Eric,

 

We are planning a ferocious argument at FRIAM on this video (see below), and I am wondering what a believer in “embodied consciousness” might have to say about it, going in.  It’s only about six minutes long, so perhaps you could take a moment from your drywall.

Robert, 

 

These are great.  Let’s have a huge effing fight on Friday about this one:

Bruce is going to love it and I think it’s a crock.  In fact, I think it gets crockier the more “expert” it becomes.  

 

But I still love it.

Following on from a conversation I had with Nick last week. Here are some videos from WIRED in which experts explain their field at (widely) varying levels of difficulty.
