Matthew Presents at Agile Grenoble 2019

November, 13, 2019, I delivered at presentation at Agile Grenoble 2019 called Mythes, Misconceptions, and Snake Oil. I delivered the talk in English, but was simultaneously translated into French. For the video, we made two modifications. 1. We cropped the video a bit so the slides and stage were a bit bigger. 2. We added titles screens to the beginning and end. Otherwise, no other edits were made.

Interview with The Invisible Gorilla Co-Author, Christopher Chabris

In this special Thiagi Group interview, Matt Richter had the opportunity to meet with The Invisible Gorilla co-author, Christopher Chabris. Chris discussed the six different cognitive illusions we humans fall under while perceiving the world around us. He also provided several anecdotes and examples for each illusion. We highly recommend the book. You can find it, the original Invisible Gorilla video, several other videos illustrating the different illusions, and a whole lot more at:

We hope you enjoy the conversation.


We recognize that some people may not have time to watch the entire video in one sitting, so we also broke it out into several excerpts. These excerpts taken collectively contain the entire interview above.
