We typically try to make sense of paradoxes using cold logic. But if we ask what they tell us about human intuition, we can improve the way we understand the world around us, says philosopher Margaret Cuonzo bit.ly/33kLE7M

In 1951, Adelbert Ames created the mind-boggling βAmes Windowβ; a rectangular window that appears to be shaped like a trapezoid.
The optical illusion appears as if a window is oscillating back and forth when, in reality, it was rotating onΒ a turntable.

Some joy under #Covid19SA: chanced upon an open @ExclusiveBooks today. I rushed in. Then I overheard a man telling a woman that she is beautiful. She said how could he know? They were both wearing masks.
Because of the book you are reading, he said.
True story.
I think he is in.

I feel that the #Covid19SA lockdown is not going to easily transition into Levels.
The moment Ramaphosa handed over the details to his Ministers, their lacklustre energy has shifted the national mood from solidarity to fragmented confusion and anger.

βHope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good.β
