About this episode
Dr. Patrick House & Tao Ruspoli discuss Leonard Cohen, eloquence, language as a musical instrument, what can we learn about an artist from their artistic output, what it mean to have a style, drawings from patients in 19th century insane asylums, simulation theory, neurons as puppet strings, and how the fire of the mind agitates the atmosphere (among other things.)
