“…There is something beyond the physical structures that line the waterfront, the stuff we plow through and by everyday, which I’m most interested in. How do we capture the ephemera and the intangible?” -excerpt from Alexis Coe’s SF Weekly Exhibitionist interview with our Cinema Arts Director, Liz Keim. Read/ watch on!

wildcat2030:

When the rat turned in the correct direction, the researchers used a third wire to send an electrical pulse into what’s known as the medial forebrain bundle (MFB), a region of the brain involved in processing pleasure. Studies in humans and other animals have shown that direct activation of the MFB just plain feels good. (When the scientists gave the rats the chance to stimulate their own MFBs by pressing down on a lever, the animals did so furiously – hitting the lever as many as 200 times in 20 minutes.) So sending a jolt of electricity zinging down to a rat’s MFB acted as a virtual reward for good behaviour. (via The race to create ‘insect cyborgs’ | Science | The Observer)
