Journal of Experimental Social Psychology - Lessons from a Faraway land: The effect of spatial distance on creative cognition Abstract Recent research [Förster, J., Friedman, R. S., & Liberman, N. (2004). Temporal construal effects on abstract and concrete thinking: Consequences for insight and creative cognition. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 87, 177–189] has identified temporal distance as a situational moderator of creativity. According to Construal Level Theory [Liberman, N., Trope, Y., & Stephan, E. (2007). Keywords Construal Level Theory; Spatial distance; Creativity Introduction Performance on creativity tasks is highly valued in society (cf. Contrual Level Theory According to CLT (Liberman et al., 2007 and Trope and Liberman, 2003;), one’s mental representation of an event or object is a function of its psychological distance. Psychological distance, which is an index of “closeness” with reference to one’s self, determines the level at which an object is mentally represented.

Entre sculpture et photographie Le musée Rodin revient, pour quelques jours encore, sur un chapitre important des relations très actuelles entre la photographie et la sculpture. À partir de la fin des années 1960 et du début des années 1970, des artistes américains et européens, apparentés aussi bien à l’abstraction de l’après-guerre qu’à l’art conceptuel, au land art, au body art ou au narrative art, développent une pratique conjointe de la sculpture et de la photographie. Huit d’entre eux – Mac Adams, Dieter Appelt, John Chamberlain, Richard Long, Gordon Matta-Clark, Giuseppe Penone, Markus Raetz et Cy Twombly – sont accueillis chez Rodin, dont le recours à la photographie pour diffuser mais aussi élaborer ses sculptures est fondateur. Ils bénéficient chacun d’une petite exposition monographique. Mises bout à bout, elles ne favorisent pas l’élaboration d’un récit global et contextualisé mais déclinent les modalités de ces connexions entre sculpture et photographie. Elles sont plus ou moins fructueuses. Étienne Hatt

Mrs. Doubtfire - Recut as a Creepy Horror Movie It’s amazing what a person can do with a bit of creativity, some editing software, and the desire to take a wholesome, family friendly film and transforms it into something twisted and amazing. Remember Mrs. Doubtfire ? Created by the very talented Peter Javidpour, Mrs. What really nailed it for me was just how serious the film becomes with a little bit of creative scene changes and foreboding music. Given how many re-makes we’ve seen over the last few years, why don’t studios instead try re-making films under a different genre than the original? If you’re looking for more of Peter Javidpour’s work, unfortunately you’re (mostly) shit out of luck. Posted on June 12, 2012 Got something to say?

The Tiny Guide to Creating the Flossing Habit ‘Floss the teeth you want to keep.’ ~dentist, quoted by Nick Crocker Post written by Leo Babauta. For many years, I rarely flossed, and as a result had some not-so-pleasant dental problems. Creating the habit of flossing is a recent triumph for me, and because I’ve had a bunch of people ask about flossing, I decided to share what works best.

Let’s take a look at how to form the habit of flossing. Forming the Habit These are the steps that worked for me: Pick a trigger. That’s really all it takes.

Fraîcheur d'âme, sève perpétuelle, espoir, souhait du dernier repos, humilité, contemplation. .Le vert absolu est la couleur la plus calme qui soit. Elle n'est le siège d'aucun mouvement. Le vert, couleur de la nature, est doué d'un pouvoir de régénération, car il capte l'énergie solaire et la transforme en énergie vitale. En Egypte, la couleur verte est attribuée à Phtah, le créateur et le stabilisateur, et à l'eau, parce que dans la cosmogonie égyptienne, l'eau était l'élément primordial de la création. En Chine, le vert désigne l'Est, le printemps, le bois et la charité ; dans le christianisme, la régénération dans les actes, c'est à dire la charité, et par antinomie la dégradation morale et la folie, le désespoir.

TwistedSifter - The Best of the visual Web, sifted, sorted and summarized How to Tackle Your Clutter Post written by Leo Babauta. So you’ve been putting off tackling your clutter for months, maybe even years. Papers pile up on a counter, shelves are crammed full of books and magazines and other things, closets are stuffed to the point of spillage, clothes pile up on the floor or furniture, boxes and furniture and other miscellaneous things cover your floor. How do you even get started? If you haven’t yet, start by signing up for the free Clutterfat Challenge, a 30-day challenge to reduce your clutter. But once you’ve decided to dive in, how do you get started? There are two methods, both of which are great, and you can combine them. By the way, last night I held a free Clutter Webinar, and a recording of that webinar is at the bottom of this post. Also: Courtney has a post today on how to make decluttering fun. The Surge One of my favorite ways to tackle clutter is in a huge surge — set aside a weekend, for example, and take on as much as you can, one room at a time. Chunking In Combination
