The Organized Mind: Thinking Straight in the Age of Overload — Cognitive Overload as System Design
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores The Organized Mind: Thinking Straight in the Age of Overload by Daniel J. Levitin as a systems-level analysis of how biological cognitive limits interact with modern information environments to shape behavior, attention, and decision-making.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than individual performance, the episode shows why cognitive overload persists — and how it connects to broader technological, media, and economic systems that continuously demand attention.
