Jesse Peper
Jesse Peper’s surreal paintings mix totemic animals like fish, birds, and snakes with religious iconography and the dark bloom of decay. He’s also the featured artist at Juxtapoz this week.

Flowcharts of science
Adventures in Ethics and Science: Scientific and unscientific conclusions
Janet Stemwedel at AES has collected a LOT of perspectives on the scientific process and interpreted them as flowcharts. Not only are they geek-chic, they give me nostalgic fuzzies of teaching 100-level Introduction to Science (before I switched over to powerpoint).
Janet’s post centers on whether “belief” should be in this flowchart, or not. Is a scientist obligated to “believe” the results of the scientific process? Or is “belief” nonessential to good science? I tend to believe (ahem) that belief can be left out entirely, but if you disagree, there’s a flowchart for you, too.
