Geese and a crow from Lifelines

http://www.rhueart.co.uk/uploads/Life_lines_catalogue2.pdf What is a memory? What is it made up of? If you open up a brain you don’t see a memory in there. A pattern of neuronal firing explains the physical processes but there is so much more than the purely scientific to memory and our consciousness. A thought, a fleeting picture in our mind’s eye, a memory of a smell. Can we do that, remember a smell? The memory of a sound, someone’s voice, how is it that we can recall a tone of voice in our heads? We conjure the person up before us but can only grasp at wispy threads of what once was.
