1 and 1 is 3 with a collage

Function: The BIS is responsible for sensitivity to punishment, non-reward, and novel situations. It regulates avoidance behavior.
Emotional Responses: It is associated with feelings of anxiety, fear, and apprehension. When activated, it can lead to cautious or inhibited behavior.
Neurobiological Basis: The BIS is thought to involve brain regions such as the hippocampus and amygdala, which are associated with processing risk and fear.

When I get stuck, when I have no ideas, when I’m not sure what to do next… I make collages.

The art of collage, for me, is mostly one of contextomy (quoting out of context) and juxtaposition: You put two things next to each other that aren’t really supposed to be together and you get a new thing. (1 + 1 = 3.)

From Zettelkasten/People/Austin Kleon

creativity is joining two unlike things together. Therefore, it becomes necessary for creatives to constantly put unlike things together to look for connections.

This is also true in a PKM - perhaps two random notes from the entire vault and connecting them.
