The inscription on the back of this postcard identifies this woman as the wife of a tour guide in Kairouan, Tunisia, ca. 1910. A person with thick, black eyebrows can see better in very bright light, and will be less likely to squint. Eyebrow paint may have had the same function as sunglasses, while accenting expressive eyebrow movement.

"Sun Ra + Ayé Aton: Space, Interiors, and Exteriors," 1972
In 1972, the legendary musician, composer and mystic Sun Ra (1914–1993) was hard at work scripting and acting in the now classic documentary on his life and work, Space is the Place, as well as publishing his second book of poetry. The book of poems (now extremely rare) was designed and edited by Ra's manager, who asked one of Ra's band members in the Arkestra—the drummer and percussionist Ayé Aton—to contribute images to accompany Ra's poems. more

Science Education of the Day: Can We Record Our Dreams?
Is it scientifically feasible to record what we visualize while we are asleep? The latest episode of Asap Science addresses this question by exploring several experiments that have been conducted using magnetic resonance imaging technology, in which computer algorithms were able to piece together basic representations of human thought. After building a database of images and video taken from the Internet, special software could provide a crude approximation of what a subject was thinking about during sleep. The computer's predictions weren't perfect, but as the technology improves and the learning algorithms become more sophisticated, perhaps one day we will be able to play back dreams on DVDs.
