Illuminating the brain through art and science

The art and science of the human brain

Delicate Neural Choreographies: "Self Reflected" by Dr. Greg Dunn and Dr. Brian Edwards

"[...] it is possible to use science or engineering as the starting points to create artworks that are completely based on fantasy. Yet, it is also possible to create pieces that are completely based on science and that look like fascinating works of art. "Self Reflected" (2019-2022) by Dr. Greg Dunn in collaboration with Dr. Brian Edwards is the perfect example."

""Self Reflected" is a visually bright work of elegance and beauty that pulsates with mesmerizing lights and wavelike electrical activity and its merit stands in the fact that it provides us with an immediate picture of the human brain.

The artwork makes it easier to grab the vastness and beautiful organization of the brain and lets us understand the complexity behind it not with difficult scientific explanations, but with immediate and delicately balanced neural choreographies designed to reflect what is occurring in our own minds as we observe this piece."

sometimes a theme recurs in your work without your permission. and sometimes it reaches a threshold where you're like. well now i think this is saying something about me against my will. don't know what though

how to level up during the winter arc

winter arc ; oct to jan

1. build a strong routine - examples: wake up immediately and journal, don't scroll in the morning, meditate, drink 1 glass of water

2. create realistic goals - be more practical. when we set big goals and they don't happen we brush them off and say 'i'll just do it next week' hence delaying action

3. visualize - visualize how the highest person of yourself looks like

4. be consistent - wake up at the same time, be consistent, and don't scroll when you wake up, just take action everyday ! things don't just happen overnight

5. habit stacking - habit stacking follows a simple formula of "when i do [current habit], i will do [new habit]." for example: "when i drink my coffee in the morning, i will listen to an educational podcast."

6. use habit trackers/to-do lists

7. don't give up when your day isn't perfect - be flexible and understand that not everything has to be checked off, life happens

8. don't go through hardcore restrictions - since it's festival season, there are chances that you might not be able tick off some habits but that's okay !

9. listen to your body - do what you feel is best for you, don't beat yourself up if you aren't able to do something

let go of the feelings you've had in the past year, "i wish i did this" blah blah. don't beat yourself over it. just move forward. why keep waiting for tomorrow when you can start today? show up for yourself. why do i want to achieve this goal? it has to be for you.

just. start. now.

Exploring the Golgi Apparatus

The Golgi body (inside the cell) receives proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum, modifies them by adding sugar molecules (glycosylation), sorts them, and then packages them into vesicles for transport to their final destinations—whether that be within the cell or exported outside.

The Golgi body, often referred to as the cell’s "post office" plays a crucial role in processing and packaging proteins and lipids.

I live my life in a constant state of grief of what I did, what I didn’t do, and what I can never do.

a powerful reset for 2025

create a “no” list

write down things you’re absolutely saying no to in 2025, like overworking, toxic relationships or procrastinating and respect your boundaries.

unsubscribe from things that don’t add value

this goes from e-mails, streamings and services to beliefs, commitments, addictions, habits and everything that drain your energy and no longer makes sense to you.

set small, realistic goals

big and vague goals are harder to achieve. we all did at least once some megalomaniac goals that we didn’t achieved because they were too unrealistic to that moment. instead, set goals that you can achieve to fulfill your sense of accomplishment and actually accomplish something.

have a pre-reset day before 2025

disconnect from your phone for a couple hours and journal about what you’re leaving behind and what you’re welcoming in this new year. align with yourself and what you want and deserve. meditate about the vibe you want from now on.

give yourself permission to change

we often stay stuck in old versions of ourselves, so let this new year be the year you let go of outdated expectations you (or society) put into yourself. change your mind! take risks! start over!

redesign you bedroom

if you can, change up your bedroom (or any room you can/want) to create a space that feels fresh and motivating for the new year, like adding fairy lights, plants, move your bed and desk, create a functional corner to study/work. any small changes can make a big difference in how you feel at home.

prioritize! mental! health!

because a strong foundation in health, specially mental health in this era, is essential and boosts every other part of your life. try to live slower, don’t overconsume in social medias, don’t overshare, do therapy, take your meds/vitamins, journal about your feelings, have a trusting person you can always vent to and get help.
