This week we had some very interesting discussions about the evolution of “intelligence” in popular culture building on traditional concepts of “brainiac” intelligence to skills and broad kudos for expertise earned through hard work matched with natural ability.
One of my favorite exponents is Danny MacAskill who does things with bikes which are just extraordinary.
He features in the new UK Cortana ad, but started out with this video 5 years ago.
He’s always been thoughtful about his music too (another reason to like him). This tune is from Band of Horses.
