The beautiful brain


The beautiful brain

Here is where you look inside the body and realize it’s bigger than the world. Medical imagery has allowed for tremendous progress in healthcare since the invention of x-rays and the first rudimental microscope. The discrete bewilderment expressed by those who contributed the pieces in this section suggests the progress of medical visualization has now reached a point where scientific and aesthetic responses can become so interconnected as to appear almost identical. The images in this section are taken from the dense continuum which is the biological existence of living and thinking bodies. We can marvel at their harmony while keeping in mind that this harmony is like the crest of a wave, or the snapshot of a flame flickering atop a candle.
