“Language wasn’t only for communication. It was also a form of action” ie Talking can be performative. Binge reading Ted Chiang and Borges this weekend #Arrival #freewill #bookofsand

Sources of new ideas:
- Extended conversations with others
- Reading broadly (new fields)
- Detailed (in the weeds) knowledge
- Time away from the computer
- Things that divide people
- Talking with relatively new people to a craft
- Traveling
- Old ideas/books
What about you?

Are you a super-encounterer or a superblocker? Ever noticed people who unintentionally block progress? @exp_radio #recruitment #HumanResources

Just caught up with my former colleague Sergei Diakov. His book on the Discovery of Oyu Tolgoi is now out. An understatement to say this is compulsory reading for all explorers and industrial academics at every level @OTMongolia @AngloAmerican . elsevier.com/books/discovery…

@exp_radio is back tomorrow - a great podcast for anyone interested in the business and technical aspects of mineral exploration!

Thanks. The quote comes from Amos Tversky, to his eldest son, before a tragically early death at 59. This message strongly Influenced the way I taught and wrote. If you want people to remember, tell stories.

Tomorrow we leave our base in Copenhagen (thanks POLOG ApS!) and head to Iceland. One night in Akureyri, then onwards to the #Greenland Frontier.

Put a frog into boiling water, and it jumps out immediately. But put a frog in cold water and slowly boil the water, it will not recognise the danger at all. Does this metaphor apply to how we deal with change in science?

Ever been made #redundant because of the #cyclical nature of our industry? Everyone that works in #mining knows it is #cyclical. There are #booms and #busts. But ever wondered why? This week...@HedleyWiddup joins us to explain why.

Research suggests people are less creative when the stability of their own work group is disrupted. Tune into @exp_radio next week when we talk about why explorers take the brunt of cyclicity

And ‘stuckness’ shouldn’t be avoided. It’s the predecessor of discovery. RIP #RobertPirsig

The most common scenario in exploring for anything new is being stuck and being unable to move. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

No one wants to see another corporate mugshot involving suits, right? To freshen things up a bit, we had a bit of fun with our photo shoot.

Busy few weeks of interviews for @exp_radio. Today I did an interview on exploring for MH370. Watch out for that in an upcoming episode #MH370 #searchscience
