You don’t have to be self sufficient for growing food to be worth it. The fun in the project, the process, the learning and the harvest can be achieved in the smallest spaces. Microgreens are packed with nutrients, flavour, look great and grow so fast and you can grow them in practically anything, but there is something especially pleasing about these little tins lined up on the windowsill. Here I’ve grown - Broccoli Cress Pink kale Pak Choi Radish Sango I have been asked many times about what to do in the garden each month, when to start seeds, what’s good for each season - so I’m really excited to say I am launching a platform where people can grow along with me. I’ll be sharing what I’m sowing, growing, harvesting and eating as well as fun new projects an...

As Byung-ho Chan points out, the multitasker returns to an animal state: it's animals who have to remain in this state of watchfulness and vigilance, who cannot really commit to a single task, but are always in the pluralized state of having to survive. Animals do not become calligraphers, or mathematicians, or poets. They remain animals.
I find that there's something very wrong with people who ignore or suppress or have cut out their drives. And something very wrong with people who will never be reasonable or apply reason and give reason charge to their instincts or over their instincts.

Cohn was a powerful institutional figure who possessed what was apparently direct line reporting to the President of Harvard, James Conant, who was a chemist. Given this rare privilege, Cohn seemed always able to garner the generous funding that ensured progress would never be hampered by traditional academic bureaucracy.
