This is an invitation to everyone or anyone to see an artist theory on the physics of light and time!
This theory is based on two postulates
1. Is that the quantum wave particle function Ψ represents the forward passage of time ∆E ∆t ≥ h/2π itself
2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w- function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!
@rkraig I am an artist and when I create a work of art it takes energy and is a process over a period of time ∆E ∆t ≥ h/2π. There is always uncertainty ∆×∆p×≥h/4π of how the art work will turn out in three dimensional (4π spherical) space the position of the lines and curves π on the canvas. Every movement I make will have to start at the quantum level and will have an uncertainty of momentum and position
Its meant as a visual approximation - i.e., a chemical reaction that also propagates at the speed of spreading depression. This similar speed suggests the reaction begins to "model" the spread of spreading depression.
@radionlibrarian These chemicals are not actually present in the brain. However, this reaction is an example the power of cellular automatons. Go look them up on wikipedia. Cellular automatons, which is related to this chemical reaction's explanation, ARE heavily being used to simulate the spreading of cortical activity in the brain.
Does this chemical reaction actually occur in the brain, or is it just one of those unexplained coincidences, like the way that Fibonacci sequences can describe the uncurling of a fern, the spiral of a nautilus shell, and the arrangement of seeds in a sunflower?
This chemical reaction doesn't occur in the brain (i.e., one using the chemical used to create the video). However, I beleive similar, slowly propagating reactions occur that are the basis for the 'spread' of spreading depression.
@rkraig And Sugar be the cause of migraine and depression and lack of movement and physical activity (ie seeing things worth wile being done that you have had a hand in, which is why gardening is good for example) .. the reaction is similar to how a sort of lichen or fungus may grow on a tree or stone? So don't let the moss grow in your brain! keep those stones rolling, cogs turning and water flowing! (oo arr) x
@angelstarbright "Don't let the moss grow in your brain." Indeed, good advice - follows the science that indicates brain can improve with USE and deterorate from LACK OF USE. We (and others) are studying the "why" and "how" of this to improve health.
@rkraig Hooray!! :)) - best sign up for that math class... only kiddin, a windy walk and a crossword will do, . . . Is it equally important to do 'left and right brain' things? such as reading and learning combined with writing and singing/drawing x
@angelstarbright, I think th emost important aspect of an answer to your questoion, is to do something that's a bit challenging that is, makes you "think." In addtion, while it might be moderatley and transiently strressful, it should, overall, be fun. Good luck. Keep that brain working!
Nice imagery of the belousov zhabotinsky algorithm, but since migraine is a vascular issue, I don't see how this relates to migraine? I mean, I don't see the relation with increased "brain" activity since to my knowledge it has nothing to do with that. Do I miss something here? or do you know something I don't?
Important point. Migraine FIRST is a neural issue - since the brain fires a spreading depression and, as a result, pain fibers at the surface "skin of he brain" are activated and this process evokes the pain and vascular change. --An issue of "chicken and egg." See Figure in KNOL. Hope that helps.
Can migraine happen without the spreading depression? If not, how is the situation in common migraine, where people have the headache and the other associated symptoms (nausea, photophobia, phonophobia) without having the visual aura?
Thanks for your interest. We used a standard receipe for the reaction with actual color changes of blue-red. Images were captured using digital-video technology and processed using Adobe Premier Professional CS3, where the colors were optimized for imporved visualization to yellow-ornage. Hope that helps. Good luck with the project.
I don't understand how it's said that the brain of migraineurs is more excitable. Do you call the spreading depression an "excitability" event? I really want to get this straight.. I feel kinda foolish :P
A brief period of increased excitability (i.e., the visual obscuration part of video 1) is the first padrt of spreading depression that is followed by a complete loss of brain cell activity (i.e., the visual scotoma shown in video 1 and the basic, defining element of spreading depression).
Nice video!

So you are using chaotic dynamics to model the neurological processes of a migrianeur's brain is what you are saying correct?

@dragonamt That's a fair assessment. But so far- we recognize it but haven't found the the best way to exploit it to identify mechanisms.

Can i ask someone who knows a bit,what is the catalist for this reaction please forgive my spelling,,

Is this just meant to be a visual approximation of the spreading depression, or are these chemicals actually present in the brain?

Good question. I believe spreading depression is a most likely mechanism to explain how the brain generates migraine pain as well as migraine aura.

Hi, i'm a finalist chemistry student studying these BZ reactions.
I wonder could you please tell me the recipe for this coloured reaction.
Kind regards
