The Humane Space Description
Enrich your inner world through curiosity, contemplation, and lifelong learning.
The Humane Space helps you find wonder and awe in the everyday. Through interactive multimedia stories, you’ll learn about topics ranging from literature to technology, psychology to art history, philosophy to biology, and more. Discover new passions, expand your knowledge base, and engage more deeply with the world around you.
Each week, The Humane Space app introduces a new big-picture question, or Space – for example, Is language universal? or Is sight the most powerful sense? or Is immortality attainable? Every weekday, the app launches a new collection of interactive stories themed around the question of the week. Stories are presented in three super engaging, quick-hit segments: Lingo, Immerse, and Deep Think. Lingo teaches you a new vocabulary word, unpacking its meaning, etymology, and cultural significance; Immerse offers deep dives into topics ranging from astronomy to linguistics to geology; and Deep Think offers creative prompts that stimulate the mind, awaken the senses, and encourage self-reflection.
More space for reflection. More space for contemplation. More space for meaning.

Immerse: Interdisciplinary education on a wide range of topics.
Deep Think: Intriguing prompts make space for contemplation.
Morning Curiosity: Notifications give you a daily dose of inspiring ideas.
Artful Knowledge: An ever-changing data visualization of your knowledge journey.

BENEFITS OF CURIOSITY AND AWE
See our website (https://www.thehumane.space) for references to research and organizations associated with curiosity and awe.
Increase well-being. Curiosity and awe are correlated with reduced stress levels and greater psychological well-being.
Strengthen your relationships. Curiosity and awe leads to deeper connections.
Boost achievement, learning, and memory. Curiosity is correlated with greater learning, engagement, and performance at work and in school.
Improve physical health and longevity. Curiosity in older people is associated with maintaining the health of the aging central nervous system. A study of 1,200 men concluded that as we age, maintaining curiosity can add up to a 30% increase in lifespan.
