John Watson shares media links with me every once in a while. Most links are quick, little bits of interest. They pop up, I go "hrm..." or "haha!" or "I need to share this with the readers!". Well THIS definitely falls into the last category.

I don't know why this video had such a huge impact on me this morning. Was it because I had finished listening to James O'Donnell's recording of the Westminster Cathedral Choir singing Allegri's "Miserere Mei, Deus" a half a dozen times with the volume set to 11 with my office windows open? Was it because I spent a half hour reviewing images from Sony's "Shadow of the Colossus" and rolling them around in my imagination, creating a sort of mental movie trailer? Was it because my coffee was too strong? I don't really know, but as I watch this video I found myself on the verge of tears. It's like Jill Bolte Taylor had filled in a handful of missing puzzle pieces in my understanding of how my brain works. This one is going to take some time for me to completely assimilate, but I'll probably watch this again before I go to bed tonight so my mind can chew away it at overnight.

She speaks fast, so if you're interested in the brain and have 19 minutes to spare, make sure you watch this video with complete focus (so not at the office). Thank you John!
