  Learning from Leonardo -...

  “This remarkable exposition of Leonardo’s work” illuminates how he was centuries ahead of his time—and the lessons we can learn from his style of thought (Edward O. Wilson, Harvard University). Leonardo da Vinci was a brilliant artist, scientist, engineer, mathematician, architect, and inventor. But he was also, Fritjof Capra argues, a profoundly modern man. Capra’s decade-long study of Leonardo’s fabled notebooks reveal him as a “systems thinker” centuries before the term was coined. Leonardo believed the key to understanding the world was in perceiving the connections between phenomena and the larger patterns formed by those relationships. Seeing the world as a dynamic, integrated whole, Leonardo often used concepts from one area to illuminate problems in another. For example, his studies of the movement of water informed his ideas about how landscapes are shaped, how sap rises in plants, how air moves over a bird’s wing, and how blood flows in the human body. His observations of nature enhanced his art, his drawings were integral to his scientific studies and architectural designs. Capra describes seven defining characteristics of Leonardo da Vinci’s genius and includes a list of over forty discoveries Leonardo made that weren’t rediscovered until centuries later. His overview of Leonardo’s thought follows the organizational scheme Leonardo himself intended to use if he ever published his notebooks. So in a sense, this is Leonardo’s science as he himself would have presented it.

  A successful YouTuber shares his strategic system for growing a channel—and going from zero to thousands of subscribers.   You have to start with no videos, views, or subscribers. Furthermore, more than four hundred minutes of content is uploaded to YouTube each minute. To say that it’s challenging to grow a channel is an understatement! In fact, less than three percent of YouTube channels ever gain more than ten thousand subscribers.   Yet, in a one-year period, Brian G. Johnson gained 10,623 subscribers and drove over half a million video views. Truly beginning from zero, Brian had no previous YouTube success to draw from and had to learn the nuances of camera settings, editing options, and technical details that often become roadblocks. Furthermore, he did it in a small and competitive niche, the YouTube video marketing niche. How, you ask? By researching, testing, and tweaking various video growth methods over a one-year period in order to identify why the YouTube algorithm promotes one video over another. Ultimately, this led to the creation of a video ritual based on his findings—a series of actions according to a prescribed order. More than a mere guide, Tube Ritual is a one-year case study with the goal of driving more views and converting more viewers into subscribers. For those already creating videos or who want to in the future, Tube Ritual contains detailed, step-by-step information that plain works. Covering topics from branding to thumbnails, video structure, YouTube SEO, video calls to action, playlist strategies, channel strategies, and more, Tube Ritual leaves no stone unturned.
