Organised Curiosity
The name of this website was inspired by a conversation I listened to on the Origins podcast between Lawrence Krauss and the English novelist and screenwriter Ian McEwan.
When asked about his interest in Science and how it informs his work, Ian McEwan says,
“Well, if we draw back… what is Science?
To me it is organised curiosity.”
I really liked this beautifully condensed idea, two words that neatly describe the methodology and mindset of a scientist. But that too of a designer, and well, me.
