WHERE SCIENCE AND CREATIVITY COLLIDE

This is an almost perfect illustration for how my brain feels presently though in reverse (I feel my creativity colliding with science). For those of you who don't know, I'm currently in grad school at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma working toward an MAT in teaching secondary English/Language Arts and Social Studies. I came across this illustration in an article entitled, Secrets of the Creative Brain by Nancy Andreasen. The article itself was fascinating, but this visual has stuck with me. It's such a complex piece that perfectly sums up what the 26 page article is all about. It is visual thinking in its highest form. It reminds me that some people can understand and process our world easier through reading a scholarly article, while others might be pushed toward a complex understanding just by looking at and evaluating this photograph.
