Live-blogging the selection show for the NCAA men’s hoops tourney. Indiana is a #7 seed with a rematch with Gonzaga, the team who ousted us last year.

In his seminal book, Csikszentmihalyi described flow as the pleasurable balance between the skill a person has and the challenges that person perceives. Flow has since been applied to product and interface design, including web sites, as the ideal experience that makes people form attachments to the things they use. Kevin attempts to connect flow to a concept in complex systems called criticality.
