🔴 Why I feature slideshows

 

🔴 Why I feature slideshows

 
Technology

I’ve settled upon using slideshows as a preferred form for visual media for this blog for a couple of reasons. First, I tweet a lot. After each show, I tweet screen shots from the show, trying to capture key moments, quotes and major plot points. It’s sort of like a graphic novel or a scrapbook. So I began including a list of these tweets at the end of each annotated script. These naturally included the links to the screenshots resulting in a very klutzy way to recreate the Twitter experience. So I started looking for some more elegant way to do this and discovered YouTube has developed an app for making slideshows out of photos, turning them into you videos. It’s located here:

🔴 Tom & the “Risk-Taking” Gene

 

🔴 Tom Keen and the “Risk-Taking” Gene

 
March 14, 2015
 
There is a genomic marker (SNP) sometimes called “the love gene” (GG variant for SNP rs53576) http://bit.ly/1wniMDR About 40% of Westerners have this variant. When combined with another gene (AA or AG for rs2254298) http://bit.ly/18nPCKM, what results, for males who grew up in non-nurturing early childhood environments, is a higher likelihood that a person will develop psychiatric disorders AND/OR that he will be a risk-taker. Both “genes” or SNPs are located on the Oxytocin molecule. The psychiatric disorders include depression, borderline personality, sociopathy and psychopathy.

🔴 Fathomless Eyes: Neurobiology of the Gaze

“Love pierces the heart through the gaze of the eyes”

 

I can’t stop looking at James Spader’s face. I’ve noticed I am not alone in this… It’s as though there were 1000 masks, each one capturing *perfectly* an emotion you didn’t even know existed but that you instantly recognize, and he moves flawlessly from one to the next, sometimes donning several in a second. There must be a name for what he does – micro-acting? I think I saw “close camera acting” somewhere. Anyway, he has nailed it. I am riveted.

🔴 “Love Gene” Bibliography

 
🔴 Neurobiology of the Gaze: Bibliography
 
I can’t stop looking at James Spader’s face. I’ve noticed I am not alone in this…

Once a recovering academic, I am now in full relapse. I am posting an annotated bibliography I compiled (isn’t that exciting?), here: http://bit.ly/12ZWgEP

The bibliography is organized in reverse chronological in two sections: 1. Articles mentioning specific genetic markers (more technical), and  2. No mention of specific markers.
