I’m treating this [[Digital garden]] as a personal experiment about learning in public and about connected thinking. A big part of it has come from attending grad school during a pandemic (i.e. looking for opportunities to connect and expand my thinking, despite being stuck at home in the basement between too many Zoom calls…)
Learning in public, to me, is a form of accountability and motivation. It’s a form of communication but without the pressures of polish of a personal blog. Writing is an opportunity to challenge and process thoughts about new concepts and literature, to make the learning process active instead of passive.
