Art and the Brain

Neuron

Analysing the evolutionary changes that condition our perception of Art.

The Royal Institution of Great Britain offers an event that aims to shed light on cognitive neuroscience and the processes that allow our brains to create and appreciate art.

It does look a bit like The REV, but that's all in your mind. And that's a fact.

This is a microscopy (photo taken through a microscope) of what lies at the core of all art - a neuron. A more elaborated explanation of art and the developmental process that has shaped our minds to undersrtand and create art is provided by the Royal Institution of Great Britain in collaboration with the UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience. The event takes place on 17th March 2009 and is part of the Brain Awareness Week. More here and here.
