Wow - too cool! Hope you're enjoying Renaissance Ethnography. Compelled to add that since Humans is for a general audience whereas Renaissance Ethnography was the book of my PhD dissertation, Humans goes down fewer rabbit-holes to the centre of the earth and contains *far* more jokes! :-)
OMG thank you all round! I worked hard to make Renaissance Ethnography something people could read without wanting to poke forks in their eyes. And I spent *so much more time* working on making Humans beautiful and exciting to read. Fingers crossed that the effort has worked. :-)
Haha definitely not reaching for a fork! My struggle is to not copy every sentence into my notebook. I’ll be doubling the weight in book darts before I’m through.
This is awesome! I remember exactly where we were when we had this conversation and love love love how you've created a pro version of the concept that is about to change my work flow. "This errand comes with music/ends in a treat" is going to be my new mantra.
Yes he does! What a great host. I remember him from forever ago when he was a performer who made jazz cool and accessible for more people in the UK. I was already a hardcore bebop fan, though. :-)
Woah - loving the synchronicity here. I’m currently reading both Renaissance Ethnography and Babel.

Already have it on pre-order! Very looking forward to it. (Also loving the rabbit holes in Renaissance Ethnography. Your writing is very compelling.)

Delighted to hear it!

Thrilled to be able to gift to you what I made with your gift of words! :-)
LOVE. Disambiguate feels like a Seinfeld episode; YTML is thanks to Dr. Crane!
Thanks - and yes, Dr. Crane and Daphne's mother are the source of Daphne's YTML meltdown!
Jamie Cullum makes everything better. I put music on for my errands too- turns boring-time into me-time.
