Scientists Discover Source of Imagination in Human Brain

So what did they find? It turns out that a cortical and subcortical network (what the hell is that) over a large part of the brain was responsible for the imagery manipulations. This network closely resembled the "mental workspace" that scientists theorized might be responsible for imagination.

The scariest part of the article is mainly that scientists are excited about this because... "understanding these differences will give us insight into where human creativity comes from and possibly allow us to recreate those same creative processes in machines."  Great.

Motoi Yamamoto

Yamamoto’s works are mostly temporary, intricate, large-scale installations, or, “salt labyrinths”. 

"Salt, a traditional symbol for purification and mourning in Japanese culture, is used in funeral rituals and by sumo wrestlers before matches. It is frequently placed in small piles at the entrance to restaurants and other businesses to ward off evil spirits and to attract benevolent ones. 

Yamamoto forged a connection to the substance while mourning the death of his sister at the age of twenty-four from brain cancer, and began to create art out of salt in an effort to preserve his memories of her.

His art radiates an intense beauty and tranquility, but also conveys something ineffable, painful, and endless.”

Artist’s statement: 

“Drawing a labyrinth with salt is like following a trace of my memory. Memories seem to change and vanish as time goes by; however, what I seek is to capture a frozen moment that cannot be attained through pictures or writings. What I look for at the end of the act of drawing could be a feeling of touching a precious memory.”
