This is interesting. Stanley Jordan is pretty unique on the guitar, in terms of two-handed tapping.

I’ll hit you early with today’s episode of #myfavoritethings as a palate cleanser from that ugliness: the 1,180 fabulous #rootsystem drawings, #botanical #illustrations with description and analysis, that constitute the #Wurzelatlas of Univ. Prof. Drs. Erwin Lichtenegger (1928-2004) and Lore Kutschera (1917-2008). (Consider this, as well, a bookend to yesterday’s Ramón y Cajal #drawings of arborescent neural structures.) https://images.wur.nl/digital/collection/coll13/search

Tonight's installment of #myfavoritethings will probably be well-known to many of you: the exquisite #anatomical #drawings of the Spanish neuroscientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852-1934). I'm never quite sure what blows my mind more: his talent and sureness of hand in depicting these #arborescent neural structures, or the fact that they are in us — indeed, in some reductionist sense, *are* us. The images here aren't even his best. https://greyartgallery.nyu.edu/exhibition/beautiful-brainthe-drawings-santiago-ramon-y-cajal/sec/images/
