Once again your meme and graphics skills are supreme.

This: "At its core, art provokes new thought and stimulates deeper connections... What especially excites me is that these connections may not just be between concepts, as the art leads you down a new line of thinking, but between people."

Amen.

❤️ Thanks, Mark. The older I get, the more emphasis I want to put on the meaning we make with each other through conversations.

Nice piece, Bryn. I am particularly interested in the Photovoice project. I'll be sharing it with colleagues.

Science that doesn’t use art to communicate is very boring. Source: I read a lot of science research. But, with less flippancy, art is so necessary. Having grown up in the beginning of the push for STEM without art and the humanities, I see a lot of what was lost in my peers who had an imbalanced science education.

Wow, this is deeply fascinating, Bryn - and the whole concept of art bringing us together regardless of context is something that I hadn't much thought about. Thank you so much for a brilliant read.

Oh, and how about those cupcakes?! 😍

Thanks, Rebecca 🥰 The more I read about the confluence of science and art, the more it underscored the need for connection on multiple levels, conceptual and personal. And those cupcakes look incredible and now I need cupcakes for breakfast 😅
