I am eating a burrito if you want some. I wonder if my burrito is Americanized or if it is really truly the Mexican recipe because I got it from a Mexican American cookbook and has to translate from Spanish to English. I wonder. Hmmm

Lol. I wonder - if you put the recipe in google translate and it translates correctly back to English then it is most likely not a real Mexican recipe because when you translate Spanish to English it hardly ever translates correctly. So... to me it sounds like it is American Mexican recipe. 😉😂

Let's call a [i]trigger[/i] something that makes you realize that there is information in an object. For example, when you see a record, its shape serves as a trigger because from that you understand that there is something to be found in the grooves of the record. Let's refer to the information on the record's grooves as a [i]message[/i].

Every transfer of information has a trigger and a message. As another example, when you hear/see someone speak, you take that as a trigger and automatically begin to decipher the message that lies within their speech sounds.

When you look at a piece of visual art, like a painting or a sculpture, is the artfulness in the trigger? Or the message?

It depends on the individual and what they find artful. The message or the trigger. And it may vary.

Why did Einstein say "imagination is more important than knowledge"?

TwinklelilStar · F

Albert Einstein's IQ was about 175. He knew it all (knowledge) but imagination does not necessarily come naturally to a genius or other knowlegable people. So what if he said that because imagination was not that easy for him???
