Promoting the TED Talk Stroke of Insight by Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor as she describes the expansive experience of her stroke
For a brain scientist, a stroke can be a revolutionary experience. Dr. Bolte Taylor describes drifting in and out of awareness as her brain functions shut down one by one
An out of body experience, she talks at length about feeling her logical left hemisphere brain functions loose control and being consumed by the sensory world around her; unable to define where she ends and it begins
A prominent theme of the talk is the expansiveness and fluidity that engulfed her, something I wanted to incorporate into the design. Contrasting clean and logical with distortion and disruption of form
