THE HUMAN BRAIN: The brain works by transmitting information between neurons (or other receptor or effector cells) through electrochemical pulses. This transmission of information is produced during synapsis. During synapsis, neurons and cells connect and through chemical charges and electric pulses and neurotransmitters are exchanged, which are in charge of activating or inhibiting the action of the other cell. The axon’s terminal buttons are the pre-synaptic elements of neural communication, through which the neuron establishes communication with the dendrites, the soma, or even another axon.

On 26th April 1937, during the Spanish Civil War, Guernica, was bombed by Nazi German and Fascist Italian warplanes on the request of Spanish Nationalists. On the left, a wide-eyed bull stands above a woman grieving over a dead child in her arms. The centre is dominated by a horse falling in agony as if struck by a weapon.
