The brain is an organ

A painting of a sunset over the ocean has the two of swords tarot card on it, which is set on a background of stained glass and materials

Try this for one minute: close your eyes and relax the brain and the muscles and bones around it.

How does it feel?

My brain and mind is just an extension of my body

My brain is an organ that’s mostly made from fat

It can sometimes feel superior to the rest of the organs, muscles and bones

Mind over matter and all that hullaballoo

Of synapses and electricity jolts

But it’s actually quite inter-dependent

Inter-connected

And then it doesn’t become an argument about mind vs matter

It becomes an augmentation of all the things

Working together, for you, dear reader,

To go about your every day


I discovered that the Met has thousands of open-source images, which was the inspiration for this week’s collage. There’s an API! Go wild developer friends!

It’s starting to warm up in the mountains, the bees and birds are out in full force amongst the kangaroo paws.

A question for you: What do you listen to when you want to get into deep work focus mode? For me, it’s all about albums that blend from one song to the next. Arcade Fire are the masters of this. I’ve been listening to the album they released earlier this yet, We. Hit reply and let me know.

Thank you for reading Ripe. Feeling it? Share it with someone you love.
