Research Themes
- it might be a better idea to form research tracks/themes, than to research a specific thing
- when you research a specific thing you kind of know what it is already, so there's not that much to gain
- research theme becomes like a vector of thought pointing in some direction, while allowing for exploration
- some themes that I stumbled upon:
- Environments not App Pickers (Ink&Switch)

- Modeless (Jef Raskin)
- No Chrome (Ink&Switch)

- "drawing on strengths of human interaction" (May-Li Khoe)
- "fund people, not projects" (PARC)
