Messiness or order?

I’m Johnnie Moore, and I help people work better together

I found this after seeing a similar clip on Facebook. I find it mesmerising.

There are times when I see only a mess and then you see order. The transitions can be breathtaking. When I watch it again, I seem to see more patterns and less mess. Feels like a metaphor for a lot of the best kinds of meetings. At the time they are often frustrating just before they become interesting. And with hindsight bias, we see less mess any more order.

Maybe it’s all order, all the way down?

Thanks to Anne McCrossan for helping me find a clip outside Facebook.
