GRADING: The students requested in class on 04/30/07 that I consider changing how the course grade is calculated. This is a fair request so the course grade will now be calculated as follows:
>> Quizzes (40% of final grade)
>> Midterm Project (25% of final grade)
>> Final Project (35% of final grade)

I added a link to the resources tab for the symposium "From Mirror Neurons to Mona Lisa: Visual Art and the Brain." This is a great website with incredibly interesting lectures on art and neuroscience. You can see the lecture slides in sync with the audio. I highly recommend this site.
