Sins of the Mind

|

Through the confessional for cognitive sins Prophette is offering absolution from modern sins in the form of cognitive bias. Both the website and the installation play with the idea of cognitive bias, to get people to admit to these biases and “absolve” them of their “sins”. The idea is to poke fun at this over-hyped area of discussion which reached an apex with the success of Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow.
