City lights photographed from the International Space Station and Neurons imaged with fluorescence microscopy.

We can explore this at another level by remembering our old friend slime mold (see my previous slimy posts here), which give us reason to believe that some of the branching patterns and efficient pathways of connecting complex systems are sort of, well, inherent in nature.

It’s equal parts “amazing” and “not at all surprising” to find them here in neurons and cities, no?

How to confuse a moral compass

Watch this simple trick, used by Lund University (Sweden) researchers to trick people into defending moral arguments that they did not, in fact, originally agree with. By silently switching the questions that survey respondents rated, and then asking them to defend their answers, they demonstrated a phenomenon called “choice blindness”. More than half of people ended up defending a choice they didn’t actually make!

It’s a pretty small sample, and it’s unknown whether different questionnaire subjects would show the same pattern … but it’s another in a long line of studies demonstrating that whether it’s politics, morals or simple beliefs, the human brain has a very hard time letting go of its opinions.

Even if those opinions aren’t real.

Svalbard Global Seed Vault

A secure seedbank located on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen near the town of Longyearbyen in the remote Arctic Svalbard archipelago, about 1,300 kilometres (810 mi) from the North Pole. The facility preserves a wide variety of plant seeds in an underground cavern. The seeds are duplicate samples, or “spare” copies, of seeds held in gene banks worldwide. The seed vault is an attempt to provide insurance against the loss of seeds in genebanks, as well as a refuge for seeds in the case of large-scale regional or global crises. The seed vault is managed under terms spelled out in a tripartite agreement between the Norwegian government, the Global Crop Diversity Trust (GCDT) and the Nordic Genetic Resource Center (NordGen).
