The definative Lucy Baker of The Fun Fed put on a heartwarming event to make some money for a friend who desperately needed it. £1000 pounds were raised and everyone had an amazing time.

The best part? Lucy sang her caberet version of Beyoncé - Irreplaceable. Missed the first few seconds on this recording, but the crowd? Well, see if you can hear their reaction…

Writing is unfortunately like painting; for the creations of the painter have the attitude of life, and yet if you ask them a question they preserve a solemn silence. And the same may be said of speeches. You would imagine that they had intelligence, but if you want to know anything and put a question to one of them, the speaker always gives one unvarying answer. And when they have been once written down they are tumbled about anywhere among those who may or may not understand them, and know not to whom they should reply, to whom not: and, if they are maltreated or abused, they have no parent to protect them; and they cannot protect or defend themselves.

— Socrates

Focus too much on the destination, and lose sight of the path. Focus too much on the path, and cover no distance.

This is amazing. 40 minutes about the future of humanity and our dabbling with technology at the level of neurscience and interconnection.

A wonderfully produced video that is part of BBC’s Horizons, found via Connor , on SpaceCollective
