The Museum of Scientifically Accurate Fabric Brain Art

This is the world's largest extant collection of anatomically correct
fabric brain art. Inspired by research from neuroscience, dissection
and neuroeconomics, our current exhibition features three quilts with
functional images from PET and fMRI scanning and a knitted brain. The
artists are Marjorie Taylor and Karen Norberg. Techniques used include
quilting, applique, embroidery, beadwork, knitting, and crocheting.
Materials include fabric, yarn, metallic threads, electronic components
such as magnetic core memory, and wire, zippers, and beads.

An oven stove is a very efficient and robust oven
that radiates heat all day. In the US it was introduced only 20 years
ago, but in Europe the technology is almost one thousand years old.
Especially in Russia, Scandinavia and Central Europe the oven stove has
a long and rich tradition.
