Never seen it before now watching a flat bottom ditch get created here.
It is so interesting to see even without knowing the terms and approach you can understand some of it by the context.
Definitely worth 14m of your time!

(Happiness) Recovering From Conversations that Have Gone Totally Wrong
My friend has a free lecture tonight. It is about dealing conversations that go totally wrong. For example, you start out having a nice conversation over the 4th of July weekend and next thing you know the topic of favorite football teams come up. Things just went from casual to serious. Then since the conversation is already going so well somebody changes it to public policies regarding controversial topics. Things just went from serious to critical.

My friend has a free lecture tonight about how to turn these really intense and downright angry conversations back to where they began: two passionate people who want to share what they value and feel with people who they respect and care for. Check out how—it is possible for all of us immediately.
