Honestly, I went there expecting the same old thing - jeans and T-Shirts, messy rooms, seemingly hordes of people walking around talking with ...
Now this is rather freaky. If it’s actually possible to determine our decisions before we realise we’ve made them, then how much free will do we really have?

I am sitting in the corner of a room with a machine that is my canvas. The world is still at night. There is only the sound of the taps of my fingers and the wind blowing outside the window. The door separates this safe haven from the world to which I face each day ...

Flawed, …
