Apologies to any artist! NOTE on copying, plagiarizing and studies

I know how vitally important it is to not plagiarize some elses art.

I have taken down any work that I feel I copied or plagiarized. As a beginning artist I wasn't making any money from my art and I DID NOT take credit for any work that I did not personally feel I created and produced myself.

There were a lot of STUDIES where I copied other art I found on the internet.

I have learned and grown to a point that I now make it mandatory that I include the artist and where I found the art if i am talking about it or using it as reference or using it for a study...

TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY!!!

If I can't find source for the material I usually don't use it.

HOW THE MIND MAKES MEANING

Louder Than Words: The New Science of How the Mind Makes Meaning

In this Lecture, based on his book, U.C. San Diego cognitive psychologist Benjamin K. Bergen draws together research in psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience to offer a new theory of how our minds make meaning. When we hear words and sentences, we engage the parts of our brain that we use for perception and action—repurposing evolutionarily older networks—to create mental simulations. Embodied simulation, as it’s called, is the reason why it takes time to travel over distance, even in our mind’s eye; why it’s possible for us to become better baseball players by imagining a well-executed swing; and why it’s so hard to talk on cell phones while we’re driving on the highway. Rather than merely calling up abstract ideas to understand language, as others previously argued, our brains engage in a creative act to construct rich mental worlds in which we see, hear, and feel.
