“If we trace out what we behold and experience through the language of logic, we are doing science; if we show it in forms whose interrelationships are not accessible to our conscious thought but are intuitively recognized as meaningful, we are doing art. Common to both is the devotion to something beyond the personal, removed from the arbitrary.” - Albert Einstein

Hidden worlds
The underwater "flying turkey" creeps me out, but the squids and octopi are way cool. I especially like how male squids will split their coloring to show a potential mate his "softer" side, while still showing aggression towards potential rivals.
I never realized that the canopy of the redwood forest was once considered a "desert", devoid of other life. This video corrects that belief in spades. And I never knew that redwoods can grow back into themselves.
