All right, so top-down processing is awesome, and it’s the thing that gives us technology. So what it does is it takes in information, and then it represents the information in sort of stages. The left hemisphere of our brain is extraordinarily good at top-down process because it likes to have very specific order.

So top-down processing is fantastic, and we’ve got a full hemisphere of our brain. KK: Then I won’t have a cake very soon after that. Then you just reiterate them over and over and over again, and those bring a certainty of a result, right? So I’ve got no cake when I begin, and at the end I have a cake.

It’s very what they call computational, meaning you’ve got a series of tasks that you figured out how to do. Because I like to make my cakes exactly like this, and so I use that top-down processing to do that kind of thing. That top-down proposition works, and so I’m going to stick to it. So a top-down proposition would be something like in order to bake a cake, I follow the following protocol, the following formula. All top-down processing means is that you’ve got a proposition, and you use that proposition to solve problems. I’m just trying to think of the right sort of metaphor here, but there’s something called sort of top-down processing. Well, the two sides to story are they’re mirrors of the way in which we have insights. So can you kind of back up and dig back into that a little bit more for us and talk a little bit more about these two sides to story? You were talking about the two sides to story and how that there’s two sides and maybe that not everybody wants to look at both sides. So you’ve been sharing about kind of how you got to this place.

We’re talking about sort of the circuitous route that you took to get to where you are now and where all of us are now that are on this journey with you and in the Story Grid universe. KK: Okay, Shawn, so we’re kind of talking about the Story Grid universe and the history of the Story Grid universe.
