I've been thinking a while about this cultural madness going on around shitlord and every human garbage that surrounds him and how they sustain their power, and sometimes I feel that life is just very short. And they know it. They can hide and swirl around narratives about religion or immigration, but truth is that they know life is too short, so they make people collides on for as much time as possible on these moral and rights issues, and have absolutely no hesitation to push limits because they know it will keep working, applying some kind of 'McMahon rethoric' to keep their engagement, diverting in every twisted possible way they can, from local fear tactics to threatening countries, or from an open hand mimic while talking about inhuman stances and enraging manipulative abuse of semantics, to complex mass media and social technology takeover, in order to keep this mental and economy machina running, because time keeps passing by, and they know life is too short.

It is not about money, it doesn't even is about power, it is about life.

I'm reaching my 40's, and now I can feel how 25 years feels very clearly, thus I can feel how much time left maybe i will exist as I am, and I know every human also can measure it, so, don't you think that they know that they have 20-30 years left of existence? They know it. Why do they really don't care about human tragedy? Because they know something, that for them it isn't a matter of believing, which is they know there is nothing after death. In their logic, why do I have to care about a system which I will never live on? Why do I have to care about human development in an illusive system of beings that their existence have no meaning? That's why they don't care. They see lions eating gazeles, that's how nature works. If people dies, they see ants going down the flush because they were feeding on a watermelon piece left on the dishes.

They talk unbelievable things about science. Do you really think that someone that knows that is only going to live a few more years, will not relay on science to put himself on a rocket 20 kms up? Or as a dirt bag as EM is and minions as he has, do you really think he doesn't have the intelligence to know that only science can make a rocket go up and land down? They are absolutely conscious that science is right, they just don't care. And that duo are just those who have cameras on them, they are thousands, have legally enclosed information, and will keep pushing because they don't care, and every fanatic or 300k wage pleasant subject is perfect because they don't care about even them, because the more convinced they are of these delusional fantasies, the better for their interests, because at the end of the day, when they close their door, they don't care about anything rather than themselves. They know there is no god making justice because they know all the horror that it is on their hands. So they go on.

As it is, I just wanted to warn about naivety around what they say or what they do. I would like to wish everyone to love and care about your safe place, alone or with your loved ones and the loved ones who will come. To those who have the privilege to know their hearts, wish you all the best.

The Beautiful Things inside Your Head: Winners of the 10th Annual Art of Neuroscience Contest

Winner: Lidija Kononenko

Artist Kononenko described this interactive piece as “a microscope specimen, a map of symptoms, and an investigation of the unknown” in a statement accompanying it. Viewers can zoom in and explore the details of a microscope image of the peripheral nerve system, which is overlaid by textual facts and poetic phrases about sleep.Sleep is “a voluntary act of losing one’s own consciousness,” Konenenko explained in her statement. The poetic snippets resemble the fragmented thoughts humans have while falling asleep. And zooming in and out of the image represents the transition between wakefulness and sleep. Additionally, 31-3594 allows the viewer to act as a pathologist, achieving the goal of blending neuroscience and art. In assessing this unique piece, the jurors praised it for “the interactivity and playful combination of imagery of a human peripheral nerve with a text-based story that unfolds at various scales and highlights the role of the nervous system in the human condition.”

Honorable Mentions

Red Haze by Nicki Coveña

A tsunami of red dots dominates this image by neuroscientist Coveña. The bright red color comes from a fluorescent protein, which was used to visualize the workings of TBR1—a gene that synthesizes the protein that regulates the information transfer from DNA to messenger RNA in vertebrate embryo development. “The out-of-focus view makes one guess at what details are hidden below,” the jurors wrote.

Motor White Matter Networks of the Human Brain by Sanja Budisavljevic

In this piece, neuroscientist Budisavljevic superimposed color onto a 19th-century black-and-white drawing of a brain based on a postmortem dissection. Each color indicates a different “highway,” or white matter pathway connecting particular regions of gray matter and allowing information to be transferred. Red indicates the most prominent highway, which links the cortex and spinal cord. “This pathway carries the messages to and from the body and allows us to function in our sensory world,” Budisavljevic says. Green represents the connection that supports coordination, and blue shows the one that regulates movements.

Bdl by Paméla Simard (Alex Tran, photographs)

Artist Simard partnered with Hunter Shaw, a neuroscientist then at McGill University, to create a series of delicate wooden sculptures. “The various installations were created from fluorescent microscopy images representing the visual system of the fruit fly brain,” Simard wrote in her statement. The intricate details of the fruit fly visual system were made possible by first laminating the thin slices of different types of wood together, then hand cutting the result to mimic the microscope images.

Whale Retina Rainbow by Elena Vecino Cordero and Luis López Vecino

In February 2019 the death of a whale in Sopelana Beach in Spain made the local news. The beach happened to be close to the University of the Basque Country, where biologist Vecino Cordero works. Seizing the opportunity, she and some volunteers extracted the eye of the whale and took it back to her ophthalmology research group for further study. The image was produced as a part of their research. The whale’s retina was imaged using scanning electron microscopy. And later López Vecino added the colors using Adobe Photoshop.

Sensing Spin by Dan Jagger

Physiologist Jagger used a high-resolution microscope to capture this image. It shows mechanosensory hair cells located in the inner ear that play a role in the sense of balance. A protein called actin is within bundles of stereocilia and is stained yellow. Actin helps the bundles to stand upright, so when the human head turns, they can detect the movement of the fluid they are immersed in. The hair-cell nuclei are stained with cyan.

The Protection of Nature Starts in Our Mind by Robert Luck

Luck is a neuroscientist at Heidelberg University in Germany who studies the development of the cerebellum, located where the spinal cord meets the brain. Alarmed by climate change and deforestation, he created a “mind forest” that resembles bird’s-eye-view photographs of real forests. The “trees” are 65 individually traced images of mice’s Purkinje neurons, which play important roles in controlling coordination and movements. “I chose the number 65 to represent the number of years needed for the rainforest to regrow and gain back at least 80% of its diversity,” Luck wrote in his statement. “[Sixty-five] years—a human lifetime!”

Memories and Patterns: Oligodendrocytes by Shanthi Chandrasekar

Oligodendrocytes are glial cells that support and insulate long neuronal axons. The cells’ lipid membrane wraps around the axons to strengthen the structure, as well as to help neurons to send signals quickly. “A single oligodendrocyte can connect with multiple axons,” artist Chandrasekar wrote in her statement. “In this [pen-and-ink] drawing, I have tried to bring out the connectedness of the oligodendrocytes and the axons.”

Shelter in Place by Geinene Carson

As its title suggests, this piece represents “the artist’s interpretation of the pandemic experience” while sheltering in place because of COVID-19, according to artist Carson’s statement. This acrylic-on-canvas piece is a part of a series entitled Neuron, which started as “visual prayers for our daughter with a rare genetic disorder,” Carson wrote on her Web site. While Shelter in Place implies physical restrictions, Carson, who is based in Atlanta, draws inspiration from the neural network, “because as important as our physical surroundings are to our state of living, our thought life holds the key to thriving within whatever the circumstances may be,” she wrote.

Bridges between Genesis and Neuroscience: Triplets by Rui Rodrigues

This image features three neurospheres—clusters of neural stem or progenitor cells—that are similar in size and shape. Because of their similarity, neurobiologist Rodrigues entitled the piece Triplets. The vibrant colors come from “antibodies coupled with fluorescent tags to label specific proteins,” he says.
