IF: Multiple Bunnies

Couldn't resist doing this little sketch for this weeks theme!

IF: Theory 'What is it like to be a bat?'

Philosopher Thomas Nagel offered an objection to the Mind-Brain Identity theory (which seeks to reduce all mental states to brain states, arguing that there is nothing that cannot, ultimately be explained in terms of our material brains and therefore observed).
Nagel points out that however much we might learn about bats say, their bodies, brains, behaviour etc.. we can never know what it is like to be a bat. There are private, subjective experiences that bats and the rest of us have which cannot be observed, therefore something remains mysterious about the mind even if we know all there is about the brain.

'She went into the pet shop to choose a puppy, but just had to have the elephant!'

The Blanket sketch origins

This is how the blanket sketch below started out, I've popped it in as I prefer it to the colour version.

IF: Blanket

The importance of a small blanket...

IF: Wizard's Hat...a spell gone wrong?

'The seventh of a seventh son

born with wisdom rare

hush falls as the chosen one

casts an ancient stare.

A lifetimes work of sorcery

the burden soon to come

this the price of wizardry

only claimed by some.

Sacred books to read and know

an endless task for most

novice failings soon will show

as misused spells will boast!'
