Some random notes

Writing as close attention see Craig Mod and https://blog.cbs.dk/inframethodology/

Same site also mentions official style that uses attention as path to living prose

Close reading is creative attention. 

Close and diffuse attention as Chatter book. 

Interleaving and linking and metaphors are forms of paired attention. This is harder than single attention. 

Sleight of hand is misdirection of attention 

When attention goes wrong. Eg. Chatter and ocd. 

False attention. Eg echo chambers and silo thinking. 

Directed practice is delayed gratification attention. 

Active listening is ego-less attention. Very hard.
