As an unabashed Felicia Day fanboy, I can’t not post this:

Artist Theo Jansen creates ‘artificial life’ out of tubes and plastic bottles. Very neat to watch these creatures move.

Thanks to GraceMcDunnough for tweeting this!

This isn’t new, but someone in the TwitterStream shared it the other day and I just got around to watching it.

It’s a fascinating talk by Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor about the two sides of our brain, how they see the world, and what that means to us. Her revelations came during the process of having a stroke. Talk about lemonades from lemons.

Anyway, I just wanted to do my part to spread the word on this interesting and powerful talk. Get a cup of coffee and make yourself comfortable, as the video runs about 20 minutes.

Rather than embed, I’m going to link to the video so you can get all the additional information contained in links off the page that holds the original embed.
