Using Body Language Consciously:

"A single gesture can be more eloquent than a thousand speeches." (Unknown) ["Body Language"] [Horace Webb]

The Hidden Language of the Body - Insights from "Body Language"

Challenging all of our old assumptions about the subject, Rethinking Body Language builds on the most recent cutting-edge research to offer a new theoretical perspective on this subject that will transform the way we look at other people. In contrast to the traditional view that body language is primarily concerned with the expression of emotions and the negotiation of social relationships, author Geoff Beattie argues instead that gestures reflect aspects of our thinking but in a different way to verbal language. Critically, the spontaneous hand movements that people make when they talk often communicate a good deal more than they intend. This ground-breaking book takes body language analysis to a whole new level. Engagingly written by one of the leading experts in the field, it shows how we can detect deception in gesture–speech mismatches and how these unconscious movements can give us real insight into people's underlying implicit attitudes.

Understand yourself and those around you.

Rethinking Body Language

"21st century art challenges: what makes us human?"

Narciss is an art installation that investigates what might happen if a machine were to exhibit human-like narcissism.The project was inspired by the concept of self-awareness, which has historically been considered unique to the human condition.

AI Explores Human-like Narcissism

The installation design was intentionally stripped back so that the object itself would speak with minimal interference.The team wanted to avoid decorating the machine and instead present it in its most basic, "naked" form.

Minimalistic Installation Design

As the AI observes itself in the mirror, it generates descriptions like "a shadow of a person" and "a bunch of electronics on a table." These descriptions are both accurate and eerie, reminding the team of how humans think about themselves.

Intriguing AI Self-Descriptions

To create a sense of grandiosity, the team filmed Narciss in a marble colosseum.This location was chosen to evoke a heavy, mockumentary feel, emphasizing the importance of the self in the context of the project.

Filmed in Marble Colosseum

The studio behind Narciss, Waltz Binaire, reinvests its profits in creative experiments with new technology.This approach allows the team to explore new possibilities in art and science while preserving the studio's identity.

Reinvesting Profits in Creative Tech

Before using a mirror in Narciss, the team experimented with AI-generated art and Rorschach TestsHowever, they did not feel these approaches made a significant poetic contribution, and ultimately decided on the mirror as the focal point of the installation.

Mirror as Focal Point

Narciss challenges the traditional view of creativity by demonstrating that AI can also generate art.This raises questions about what defines art and the role of AI in the creative process.

Questioning AI's Creative Capacity

Christian Mio Loclair, creative director at Waltz Binaire, believes that by asking profound, evolutionary questions, art can continue to grow and develop in new directions.

Art Growth Through Profound Questions

The AI, Narciss confronts the idea of self-worship and self-centeredness in art by presenting an AI caught in an eternal loop of self-reflection.

Challenging Self-Worship in Art

Narciss is designed to stimulate more holistic and humbling conversations about art and the human condition.By exploring the nature of self-awareness and creativity in AI, the project invites viewers to reevaluate their own self-perceptions and understanding of art.

Stimulating Holistic Discussions

As we progressed further into AI technology, we as human need to reevaluate our own self-awareness about AI and what are we going to do with it, what makes us unique as human?

Little Black Book, What does the AI that got lost in its own reflection tell us about the self and the future of creativity? LBB’s Laura Swinton talks to Waltz Binaire creative director Christian Mio Loclair at NEXT19

You've probably seen my articles floating around here on Deepstash and this article is the rawest article I've made so far since I started this account.My personal goal was to digest things that I want to learn and I just used technology to help me out and I'm just sharing the things I've learned that technology helped curating.I'm here to be a proof that machines and artificial intelligence is an ally and if used by the right hands, it helps humankind understand things faster than trying to find the information themselves.This is the only article purely written by me.

Why am I here?

By sharing ideas that actually benefits me personally was just something that came out of the blue. I was tinkering around AI and I saw its capability of helping me create the persona that I want to have and this led to push through with my plan of leaving a legacy.As a person who works in tech, I know for a fact that techn is here to stay and will surpass human capabilities tenfold given the right conditions. With digital permanence, I'm using this to leave snapshots of my life that would hopefully affect someone in a positive way even when I'm no longer around.This is how I leave a legacy.

The Legacy Plan

Bored Karbatos' image in the digital realm is not planned. It was created through a series of interests that I spent time on in the past few years. This name became my internet persona especially in Web3. I also use this in games as my IGN. This way, I could separate this version of me from the real me. I want these kind of articles to only reach who needs to be reached. I'm only putting out a number of raw articles like this across the next few weeks and if you want to read more stuff like this, make sure to follow and hope that you enjoy the next raw article I'll be making.

Why don't you post more of these?

I just feel like this whole platform is too flooded with info that is supposed to be beneficial but for me, it lacks content like this where the writer just talks about things like an actual human being who just wants to connect.That's why this article is special to me. I usually just write down my thoughts in Google Keep and just keep them there for me to read again when the right time comes and I just realized why don't I share it to the world instead?

Why are you opening up now?

I don't care about clout. Yeah sure, I promote stuff here hoping one you guys buy and I get comission but so what? I'm here trying to make ends meet just like you. I'm just trying out new ways to make money because no one else is doing it around where I live. That's why this article is here. This is just a reminder that sure, most of my content here is about making a list of things that make sense but apart from those content, there's an actual human being behind the account. I don't care if no one reads this but if someone is, I hope that you appreciate my thoughts.

Psh, this is just for clout isn't it?

I've been practicing freewriting since I was in high school and looking back at the amount of content I've generated throughout the years made me realize the value of the information that my mind has. I write down ideas, questions, patterns, observations and even random stuff that I just thought about while staring at the ceiling and none of these where going out in the world. As I grow up, I realized that everyone else is like me. Your mind doesn't stop either it just that you don't write them down.By sharing my ideas to the world, I hope that you share yours too because you have a lot.

My Mind Doesn't Stop

Wow, you're still here! If you've come this far, I want to thank you because I know that somehow, someone out there have gained something from my experience I hope you share this knowledge to others and claim it as your own.Whatever you learn from me is yours to keep forever. Go ahead, share my philosophies and tell them it's yours. Keep the credit and you deserve it. The whole capitalist ideology and the concept of ownership has torn down our nature to share knowledge for free and I'm here to somehow embody the change I want to see. I just want the best for everyone and I hope that you do too

Congrats if you've reached this far

This whole platform is already filled with how tos and guides on how to live a more fulfilling life that we forget that we are humans that feel and not only here to earn and buy the things that we want. This article is something to remind you guys that an actual person is here trying to relate to you.

True health is measured by the quality of our thoughts and the peacefulness of our mind. Health starts in your mind.

8 ways you can beat overthinking 👇👇

99% of the harm is caused in your head, by you and your thoughts.1% of the harm is caused by reality, what actually happens and the outcome.Most of the time, the problem isn't the problem. The way you think about the problem is.

1. The problem is rarely the problem.

Don't think you deserve that opportunity? Apply for it anyways.Don't think your article is good enough? Publish it anyways.Don't think they'll reply to your email? Send it anyways.Never overthink yourself into self-rejection.

2. Avoid self-rejection.

The truth is, most problems aren't solved with more thinking, they're solved with less.You'll find most of the answers you're looking for in silence, in timeband with a clear mind.If you can't solve a problem, stop trying to.

3. Silence and time.

When you start criticising yourself for past mistakes, or seeing disaster around every corner, ask yourself:"Is there anything I can do right now to change the past or to positively influence the future."If the answer is yes, do it take action. If the answer is no, be at peace let it go.You have to take action or let it go, everything else is self-harm.

4. An important question.

You're not going to overthink your way to a better future.You're not going to overthink your way to a better past.All you have is NOW.And what you do with NOW can make right of your past and make good of your future.Make peace with yesterday, let go of tomorrow, grab hold of now.

5. The power of now.

Your thoughts will create scenarios in your mind that reflect your insecurities, fears and worries.So it's important to always fact-check your own thoughts before accepting them, because in highly emotional situations, your thoughts will tell you stories that aren't true.Fact check yourself.

6. Fact check your own thoughts.

No amount of anxiety will change your future, no amount of regret will change your past.Peace is found in acceptance:• Accept imperfection. • Accept uncertainty.• Accept the uncontrollable.You don't have to understand, tolerate or even forget something, but if you want peace, you must accept it.

7. Acceptance is peace.

You can go to the gym, eat healthy, do yoga, drink water and take vitamins, but if you don't directly confront the negativity in your thoughts, you will never truly be 'healthy'.Our health isn't measured on scales, by the size of our muscles or by the width of our waist.

8. Health starts in your mind.
