about Hey there. My name is Maria Popova and I’m a reader, writer, interestingness hunter-gatherer, and curious mind at large. I’ve previously written for Wired UK, The Atlantic, The New York Times, and Harvard’s Nieman Journalism Lab, among others, and am an MIT Futures of Entertainment Fellow. Maria Popova. Photograph by Elizabeth Lippman for The New York Times Brain Pickings is my one-woman labor of love — a subjective lens on what matters in the world and why. Founded in 2006 as a weekly email that went out to seven friends and eventually brought online, the site was included in the Library of Congress permanent web archive in 2012. Here’s a little bit about my seven most important learnings from the journey so far. I think of it as LEGOs — if the bricks we have are of only one shape, size, and color, we can build things, but there’s a limit to how imaginative and interesting they will be. Please enjoy.

Les cartes de pays imaginaires - Voyage dans les contrées de l'utopie «Souvent, l’objet du désir, où le désir se transforme en espoir, devient plus réel que la réalité elle-même. » Célèbre romancier italien, mais aussi philosophe, essayiste, critique littéraire, Umberto Eco a longtemps été fasciné par le symbolique et le métaphorique, qu’on retrouve par exemple dans ses livres pour enfants (les trois cosmonautes, la bombe du général,…). Il revisite aujourd’hui ces allégories qui lui sont chères dans « Le Livre des terres légendaires »; un voyage illustré dans les plus grands lieux imaginaires de l’histoire, peuplés d’habitants fantaisistes et coutumes étranges, qui prennent place dans des lieux aussi différents que la mythique Atlantide ou le petit appartement de Sherlock Holmes. On peut également y découvrir le royaume de la Reine de Saba, celui du prêtre Jean, des îles de Gulliver, l’Eldorado et le Pays de Cocagne,… Eco écrit dans l’introduction : La réalité de ces illusions est le sujet de ce livre ».

7 Strategies To Help Students Ask Great Questions Bring TeachThought Professional Development To Your School! 7 Strategies To Help Students Ask Great Questions by Terry Heick Questions can be extraordinary learning tools. A good question can open minds, shift paradigms, and force the uncomfortable but transformational cognitive dissonance that can help create thinkers. The latter is a topic for another day, but the former is why we’re here. 8 Strategies To Help Students Ask Great Questions 1. The TeachThought Learning Taxonomy is a template for critical thinking that frames cognition across six categories. It imagines any learning product, goal, or objective as a “thing,” then suggests different ways to think about said “thing”–mitosis, a math formula, an historical figure, a poem, a poet, a computer coding language, a political concept, a literary device, etc. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Wakako Kawakami’s Striking Installations of Giant Textile Birds When Alfred Hitchcock directed his classic film The Birds, he left open the question as to why the birds turned their fixation towards humanity. The mystery surrounding his film made it one his most chilling pieces of work, portraying a bird’s-eye view of the world as if nature were judging us. Osaka based Japanese artist Wakako Kawakami takes a note from Hitchcock with her giant textile budgies that she installs in various locations. Their plush faces peer down on us from office windows and building entrances with empty eyes, compelling for their massive size and beautiful colors, but at the same time unnerving and mysterious. Kawakami was also thinking about the presence of nature when she first created her gigantic birds, explaining that her reason for using parrots as a motif was in an attempt to express life, and out of a fantasy that her own pets were larger than life.

Sacred Tree Profile: Hawthorn (Lore, medicine, magic, and mystery) Hawthorn branches and leaves In honor of Samhuinn, a festival of beginnings and endings, today we’ll explore the most sacred of trees–the hawthorn. This is the 6th post in my “Sacred Trees in the Americas” series where I examine abundant trees in the Eastern and Midwestern parts of the USA, exploring their many qualities: physical, magical, herbal, mythological, and so on. Previous posts have include Eastern Hemlock, American Beech, Sugar Maple, Eastern White Cedar, and Hickory. Each of these posts takes 20-30 hours to research and write, not to mention the countless hours I spend with the trees to understand them and share their stories as best I can. And now friends, let’s enter the forest and visit the hawthorn. I remember when I was a child, running through the hawthorn grove behind my house. As an adult, I would be thrilled to come across a hawthorn in full fruit, ready and waiting for a harvest. Hawthorn tree in early summer About Hawthorn (Physical) Example of hawthorn rust Abundance
