Art involves distortion, hyperbole and exaggeration... A specific type of distortion... sanscrit word rasa, the spirit of something, the soul of something, capturing the very escence to evoke a specific emotion in the viewers brain.
-Ramachadran-

-Charles Sherrington-

-David Chalmers-
Learning [art] is physical... [it] means the modification, growth, and pruning of our neurons, connections-called synapses-and neuronal networks, through experience...when we do so, we are cultivating our own neuronal networks. We become our own gardners.
-Dr. James Zull-
