<p>173.245.53.189: </p> <hr /> <div>This seems to be a reference to this video or one of many of the same ilk. <br /> http://www.artthesystem.com/2013/12/after-i-saw-this-i-put-down-my-phone.html?m=1<br /> <br /> Which is doing the rounds on social media sites at the moment {{unsigned|‎Gernant}}<br /> <br /> <br /> Heard on a french radio show (Les grosses têtes) : A study made on student split in two group in an exposition : one group would photograph what they like, another one would photograph a certain set of pictures.<br /> The study found that the ones who could photograph pictures they like, wasn't able to remember the pictures they liked.<br /> The ones who wasn't able to photograph picture they liked, remembered it better.<br /> I don't have link, sry, but white hat is proven right in this case.
