zeitgeist on ice

An anatomical heart made up entirely of the words from a dissertation. He put tons of effort into studying a particular cardiac arrhythmia, noted below the heart, and instead of hanging fancy diplomas on the wall, he chose to immortalize his time and efforts into a piece of anatomical art. (via Street Anatomy)

This is stunning! A great reminder that art and science don’t have to be mutually exclusive— in fact, they shouldn’t be: anatomy is art!
