Have a gander at the work of a master (Caravaggio). The Calling of Saint Matthew depicts the moment when Jesus Christ inspires Matthew to follow him and become an apostle. For those of you who may not know, Matthew was a tax collector.

Matthew 9:9 "He saw a man named Matthew. sitting at the tax collector's booth. "Follow me". He told him. and Matthew got up and followed him. Now you see that part of the scripture? Seems like a series of events. Right? WRONG!

Caravaggio inserts human emotion into otherwise sterile words on paper, giving them heft and life. See how Matthew is sitting next to 4 men? Two on his left are consumed by their worldly professions?

One of the key influencers of decision making with regards to design from an architectural point of view is the orientation of any building in relation to the sun. The sun provides an immense amount of info about the world. Using that as a guide to work with, instead of against.

So we can look at how art, and photography is heavily influenced by the same concept. Where is the light coming from? How does that create depth? How does it create a relationship between the user and their content.

When we design applications at #moonlit we take this into consideration. We want to be informed by practices other than our own. We get to go and harvest the riches of fields much older than our own.

Game theory:
Pros: Gives you a frame of reference to evaluate information, even if partially correct.
Cons: Gives you false confidence in your assessment of others.
Where does it fail? It gives you a static understanding of a dynamic situation.

If you're an excellent communicator and the person across from you isn't one, you can dynamically convert their frame of reference without much effort. Do you want an example?
Ok, let's take the concept of Russell Conjugation and test it. Finish with a Nietzche example.

Making a sales pitch can cause some people to perspire, others to sweat, and the lucky few can glow. See that? It's 3 different ways to describe sweat. The contextual usage of visual queuing makes it emotionally appealing or repellant.

The problem with a hierarchy is that when it gets deeply corrupted, and you are at the top, you become the bottom very quickly. This explains the complete lack of accountability by the Biden gov and US military.

A good hierarchy is one of transparent accountability to the inner circle. That conversation auto corrects small errors. Thus, the message can fan out loud and clear across the organization.

Once it’s corrupt you see the lack of trust manifest. Now you gotta lie and cover up things. Not because you are trying to right a wrong, but because you have found yourself in the prisoner’s dilemma.

A lot of people can't distinguish between different types of information. The most common is the inability to tell the difference between instructive information and factual information.

Second note, facts have a shelf life. They are not forever (time) true nor infinitely (space) true. What is true in one instant of time in one location may not be true somewhere else or even the same place at a different time.

Most often when someone disagrees with a take I offer, it's because they take my instructive bits of information and seek to compartmentalize it into factual boxes. It doesn't fit, because it's not MEANT to fit that way.
