The Thesis Hat

Over at the third bit there is a post introducing the thesis hat. The basic idea is to have a container into which anonymous research ideas are placed by a community of scholars. Periodically those scholars gather together to draw ideas out of the hat one by one for subsequent discussion. The scholars then collaborate on any ideas that they want to investigate with the aim of fostering collaboration, interdisciplinary research, and enabling researchers to spread their wings amd move away from their comfort zones.
