I’ve been thinking about this since I saw it earlier. So the significance is that by limiting hand movement (by typing) you’re also limiting energy / impact? If so, probably more-so than with TED, because distraction from typos breaks the thought flow.

Jason, indeed! Great thinking on this. As you travel down this pathway we discover that there is pervasive non congruent stimuli. Additionally the dominant hand and thus typically the left hemisphere controls the sequence. This changed us as a species and we can see it on Twitter

Very interesting - I gesture a lot with my hands and have been coached to do so less when publicly speaking - perhaps bad advice.

Roger, indeed. The absolute worse advice. This unsupported concept came from political coaches that developed the idea based on an invalid assumption that hand movements present flea/fight/stay limbic responses. They do if they are not congruent with the person.

Oh so many questions. Have they compared the popularity of rich text vs plain? Like using typography for emphasis. Also do you thik gesture is independent of sight/audience ? I definitely still gesture when on the phone!

Jennie, thank you! There are ongoing studies to extract the detail as on why. I suspect we will find it is deeply ancestral gnosis with elements transferring to other media.

correlation or causation?
-
Srikanth, indeed great question. You need to control for common causes if you're trying to estimate a causal effect. There are other studies and older research I am reviewing, thus far it is eliciting the same evocative novelty. I expect more insight soon.
