Aristotle said that. Quite true.In the meanwhile, Design 101 reached its 55th videoclip (out of 101).

I think I can say that we are getting truly excellent at it.Not because of the act, but because of the habit.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.

Ecology from the Air

Very nice, from a TED lecture (thanks to Simone Sala for the link).

What are our forests really made of? From the air, ecologist Greg Asner uses a spectrometer and high-powered lasers to map nature in meticulous kaleidoscopic 3D detail -- what he calls a very high-tech accounting system of carbon. In this fascinating talk, Asner gives a clear message: To save our ecosystems, we need more data, gathered in new ways.
