A little about me...
Why do you enjoy Byron?
Some of the things I enjoy here most at Byron would have to be the athletic portion of the school. I like being able to tell people about our soccer teams and I like being able to say that I play varsity sports at a 6A school.
Paul Ekman
He was named one of the 20th's century's most significant psychologists. He has carried out trailblazing work on human facial expressions, leading to him being dubbed the "best human lie detector in the world."
One of his more famous tweets was in 2013 "in my early work, I was influenced by thinking in semiotics and ethology. My focus was primarily on gestures."
I wanted to choose his twitter account because I was fascinated by the fact that he studied the mind enough to be able to determine when anyone was lying by judging all of there gestures. I know that some gestures are give aways and not everyone is a good liar but some people are and people seeing him as a human lie detector blows my mind.
