Let’s do something completely different<\/strong> this week. How about a photo-essay<\/a>?<\/p>\n

When I began my study of decision-making, I assumed that the coldly rational, quantitatively financial-economic approach<\/a> was the best. How else can you avoid making the systematic errors that our cognitive biases can cause? I’ve since learned that emotion, intuition<\/a>, empathy<\/a> and even unconscious thought<\/a> are crucial to effective and ethical decision-making.<\/p>\n

To better understand how emotions intertwine with decision-making and get to know my neighbors, I interviewed and photographed people selling their things<\/strong> at the West 104th Street Block Association<\/a> 2016 Yard Sale. This annual event brings folks from eight neighborhood buildings<\/a> together to sell their old toys, kitchen-wares, clothing and bric-a-brac.<\/p>\n

I asked them one question: “Which item do you kind of hope won’t<\/strong> sell?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The answers I got were profound and moving, humorous and sarcastic, mundane and bland. Many had a deep and emotional connection with the things they were selling.<\/strong> And yet, they decided to put a (often ridiculously low) price tag on them and offer them to any passerby.<\/p>\n

I then had them pose with the item so I could make their portrait. I hope you enjoy “Selling my Darlings<\/a>“<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
