The Monkey Sphere
Last Updated on: February 18, 2023
I stumbled across an article about The Monkey Sphere after first reading it a couple of years ago.
It is basically a light-hearted look at how people become less important to you the “further away” they are from you, or rather your “Monkey Sphere'”.
Of course, the whole concept is Dunbar’s Number, but it’s easier to digest with a bit of humour and a few monkeys.
The article reads as a joke, but I think it’s an interesting way to understand the concept of Dunbar’s Number. It’s well worth reading if only for the humour.
Here’s the link: What is the Monkey Sphere?
That’s a great article – funny but also pretty close to real life. Some of the people I work with are a bunch of monkeys!
