homunculi

When making our jello-brain, we entombed a tiny lego man in the frontal lobe to capture the idea of an homunculus, or tiny human. Neuroscientists try and avoid implicating this little guy when positing mechanisms of self-control and decision making. Here, my son Ben decided to liberate our lego homunculus whilst eating the left parietal lobe … that’s one way to get rid of the homunculus – just dig in and pull him right out of the brain!
