There are controversies over this philosophy as to whether it counts as irrational, or whether it results in useful attitudes or behaviour. The Dunning-Kruger effect is when someone who knows fuck all about something, is under the deluded impression that they are in fact, an expert on said something.</span></p>Beat The Drumtag:beatthedrum.co.uk,2005:Post/47349962017-06-06T14:09:56+01:002021-10-15T14:09:30+01:00THE ART OF THE TRICKSTER<p><span class="font_large"><strong>'Trickster makes this world' </strong>the book from our good friend U.S. academic Lewis Hyde, explores how the power of disruptive imagination creates culture. </span></p>

Both are a means of investigation. Artists and scientists both strive to investigate the deeper truths of reality. Loved by both Brian Eno and Professor Brian Cox, electro pop pioneers Beat The Drum are being praised for their breath taking track “This Is!” Science has long known everything living is connected to everything else in the universe. Everything is just different aspects of one huge intelligent interconnected living system. Philosopher Alan DeBottain says of the track “Absolutely awesome, I am gobsmacked at what they have achieved, it's a game changer”</span><br><br><iframe class="justify_inline" data-video-type="youtube" data-video-id="BbYoJNp_Z6s" data-video-thumb-url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/BbYoJNp_Z6s/0.jpg" type="text/html" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BbYoJNp_Z6s?rel=0&wmode=transparent&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" height="300" width="400" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe></p>Beat The Drumtag:beatthedrum.co.uk,2005:Post/46827272017-04-24T16:43:08+01:002017-04-24T16:43:08+01:00WTF!

She found it hard to raise herself from her suitably “comfortable for a princess” bed of down and soft linen, which had been warmed by her nights rest. She tried many things, over many years, but was never quite sure she had found the right way to wake up and start the brand new day.<br><br>Then a friend mentioned to her that they had tried something new, which she might find refreshing and stimulating, and offered to set it up as a surprise start to her very next awakening, to which she swiftly agreed. When it was time for bed that evening she found it difficult to fall asleep, because of her excitement and anticipation of what the next day might bring.<br><br>The next morning, as she awoke, the conductor in the corner of her room (for this was a princess, in a princess sized bedroom), gently waved his baton, And the beautiful noise that is Beat The Drum started to shake the walls of the palace.</span></p>Beat The Drumtag:beatthedrum.co.uk,2005:Post/46827132017-04-24T15:49:02+01:002021-10-15T14:07:46+01:00IN A LAND FAR AWAY<p><span class="font_large">What's the difference between lying and entertainment? </span></p>

<p><span class="font_large">They knew they were destined to work together when Steve walked in on Chris who had an old Woolworths amplifier on its back, with a guitar laying across it, feeding back like crazy, howling away to itself, and Chris said “it's great, how it changes”. </span></p>
