Brain Spider Webs
If someone spoke non-stop for hours on end about multiple subjects that unfolded, I wonder if neurologists could map the neuron structures in their brain just by reading the monologue.

This Is What Happens When I Try To Fall Asleep
Which circle is best? In order to deem one better than the two others, they all must somehow be differentiated. All three are clearly the same in terms of appearance, so the only way I know to differentiate them is by assigning meaning. Any of the three could probably be considered the best depending on…

Headache
There are people out there with 3 or 4+ degrees in various subjects. In terms of the kinds of conclusions that could be reached, this multi-degree per person arrangement strikes me as more beneficial than a group of people, each of whom hold 1 degree, getting together everyday to discuss. Imagine 4 degrees in the…

This One Works Better With Chopped Up Lines Like Poetry
If you are given some statement about anything, and ask of the statement, ‘why?’ and they answer you with another statement, and you again ask of this, ‘why?’ and this cycle continues for a few turns until the answer they give cannot be explained further if asked ‘why?’, will this last answer be the same…

To Speak And Differently Again
The way people formulate thought is largely dependent on the language with which they are speaking to themselves. Moreover, some things are easier to think about using a particular language over another. For example, I read of some physicist who claimed that it was easier to solve a quantum physics problem when he considered the problem…

Graphing Behavior
I’m not fond of graphs because my experience has led me to associate them with mundane math. They also make the line between math and art that much more undefined. But here are two I enjoy: What we have above is a 2D representation of the changes in head feeling that I, and I’m sure…

No Crutches
If I need to remember to do something in the morning, I throw my pants on the floor or displace an object on my desk, anything that will strike me as odd and cannot go unnoticed when I wake up. I’ll know I purposefully moved the object or threw the pants on the floor the…
