"Happiness is a kind of a placeholder for a constellation of positive emotional states. Of all the emotions, happiness is the one scientists least understand."

Fail Better Exhibition
A Free Exhibition of Beautiful, Heroic and Instructive Failures
The goal of FAIL BETTER is to open up a public conversation about failure, particularly the instructive role of failure, as it relates to very different areas of human endeavour. Rather than simply celebrating failure, which can come at great human, environmental and economic cost, we want to open up a debate on the role of failure in stimulating creativity: in learning, in science, engineering and design.
