Seth Goldstein on Attention

The guy most responsible for getting me into attention just gave a great video interview on Wallstrip. I met Seth just over two years ago in Berlin and honestly didn’t understand all his fuss about “attention”.

This is the talk he should have given me then. The clearest explanation yet of attention and why it matters.

(And as the original author of the Attention Recorder, I must say it’s a cool feeling to have your work mentioned like this!)
