Ready to discuss, dissect, and debate another delectable Curiosity Bite? Glad you relentlessly curious adventurers are here to tackle these topics with us. How do you determine what’s valuable or entertaining enough to share? Is this different for what you share in-person and what you share online?

How are your life experiences influenced by your plans to document or share? When you watch interesting videos and photos, do you consider who was holding the camera? Do you consider what the person who posts wants you to believe or feel? Do you think that documenting your life makes it harder to change your mind?

Discuss, debate, and dissect with us!

The lens is – and always will be – curiosity. Each week, fun informal conversations center around one delectable Curiosity Bite designed to give your brain the time and ideas to think about thinking, to flex your curiosity muscle… and maybe even… revolutionize the way you think.

What’s more important to you? What you know…or how you think?

Do you say you value how you think more than you value what you know? How much time to you set aside for thinking, developing how you think?
