🚅 It’s Bullet Time! As I was writing this edition of the bullet, I spent some time thinking about the magic of bullet time AKA matrix effect.
Suffice to say, it took me down a really interesting rabbit hole and I came across this amazing article on the history of this cinematic masterpiece of a visual effect.
BULLET ONE
📚 Book I’m reading: How to Change Your Mind
Ever since, I saw the Mad Men episode with Roger Sterling trying out LSD, I’ve been fascinated ! What must it be like to be tripping on psychedelic drugs like acid or taking a soul searching trip on Ayahuasca under the watchful eye of a shaman.
Michal Pollan explores all of that in this book – the history, the backlash and the recent resurgence of psychedelic drugs and it’s potential beneficial impact. Must read if you’re at all curious about psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin.
BULLET TWO
📱 App I’m exploring – Ladder
At the start of 2022, I (like most people) decided to get myself into the gym and hired a trainer to help me get leaner and stronger. Six months later, I definitely feel a lot stronger but my pocket’s feeling a lot lighter- a personal trainer doesn’t come cheap unfortunately.
However, tech to the rescue as always – the ladder app is a great way to get a personalized trainer like experience through an app.
I love that new workouts drop every week; and since the moves are showcased by (really fit) trainers in great detail, I know my form is good too -I’m lovin it!
