Viral Knowledge

As you gear up for the end of the year, be on the lookout for interesting ways of knowing.  For Saturday night, please describe an instance to which you then apply and answer the question "does knowledge, including culture, depend on language?"  For Monday night, build on the observation and analysis of a classmate; extract a knowledge question from another's Saturday post and connect it to a separate moment of knowledge of your own.  You may even wish to view the moment through an Andersonian lens.

Bigger Than a Quarter

It's time to look inward.  Let's read some neuroscience!  Please find an article on neuroscience, either from RadioLab or 3 Quarks Daily (on the Links list) or from Scientific American, Nature, or Science.  Once you've read (and likely reread) the article, extract one KQ that addresses Ways of Knowing and Areas of Knowledge, then answer the question from two perspectives (your own, explicitly defined in context, and another).  Include a brief introduction to the article in your post, along with a link to the article.  Please have this up by Sunday night.  Happy brain picking!
