Måns and Eric

I like knots and bolts.

"We must educate our future performers about the importance of outreach
activities and make it possible for them to learn the knots and bolts of the
art of outreach. Learning the technical skills of an instrument should not
be separated from learning the methods of outreach." [1]

*"The animal and infant perspectives are, in this respect, tools by which we
can explore the structure and dynamics of the physical world from a
biological perspective, rather than from a formalised physical and
mathematical perspective. This dissertation is therefore about the **basic
knots and bolts** of the physical world as it relates to biological
organisms, rather than computational **knots and bolts** of an internal
cognitive system as it relates to a generic and arbitrary world.*" [2]

*Interestingly the latter is of Danish origin*.
