- cares about polymathy studies more than about the credentials of being a polymath. there is no end goal; it is an activity, a work in progress.
- current society forces you to stay in a track of specialization.
- "polymaths in progress": a manifesto for this attitude.
- polymaths helping each other with an overlapping
- topic: amateurism, can it sometimes be disrepect towards a discipline?
polymathy is a state of being. In that state, there is only a state of connection.
expert == a miner
polymath == depth + breadth + integration. A polymath pursues a mission: there are no disciplines, there are other connections. This is a spectrum, though.
topics:
- dilettantes/generalists
social networks are user content plus an algorithm
twitter: more than one network. many.
