Connections

Filed under: Education — dcoe @ 12:18 am and

I’ve just read two blog posts that came together in my mind, as blog posts will, with a resounding crash.

Crash bandicoot

Don’s led me to explore the Milgram’s fascinating six degrees of separation theory, which basically confirms what your mother always told you - just watch how you behave out there -people know who you are.

Ollie’s led me to the mind-blowing shifthappens presentation, showing how vast the world is, how skewed our perceptions of it are in the so-called west, and yet how connected we are, and increasingly might soon become through the supercharged advance of technology.

But only if you’re living in the right place at the right time, apparently. (I suppose Glow might give Scottish children the wherewithal to catch some coat tails in this race!)
