Noticing
summary
Claims that meditation is literally noticing things and that asking email 20 people what one is good at yields actionable direction (teaching), backed by a concrete result: five students built iPhone projects—an AR pastry app, a Wordle‑like ML scavenger hunt, and Super U body‑remodel app—and presented them at Apple Battersea. Proposes a build path (skateboard→scooter→bike→motorbike→car), an unfolding schedule (1h→2h→4h→... forty days total), and two ongoing builds: a solar-powered mesh network and a planet‑scale AR sculpture.
