After a walk through the Tuileries gardens stop by Smith and Son rue de Rivoli to pick up a copy of my biography of Henri Bergson. If you read it in public you will receive looks of envy and admiration from the locals who are still waiting for the French translation (release date tba)
John Banville wrote a lovely review of my biography of Bergson for @thenation.com calling it “fascinating and lively” He also says that I have “a genius for condensing complex philosophical and scientific postulates into digestible bites.” www.thenation.com/article/cult...

For many years, people didn’t randomly film others in public—not because we didn’t have the technology, but because the social contract said you didn’t do that. That’s why Meta is going full court press on their PR and celebrity endorsements. They remember how people ran google glass outta town.

A bunch of new people followed me recently so I must remind you that I wrote a biography of Henri Bergson called Herald of a Restless World. I wrote it with my HANDS and BRAIN and I'm very proud of it. John Banville called it “The most intellectually stimulating book I read this year” (last year).
Today I found out that Matisse made this with Bergson's image of the élan vital in mind. He was reading Creative Evolution in the 1940s.
If you can try to catch the Matisse exhibit at le Grand Palais (it ends next week)
Still revisit this devastatingly accurate read of Elon from time to time and remember how it sent him in a two day spiral
Reading this right now and yesterday, on the NYC subway, I felt very swish!
Most sophisticated book pitch in a while!
