Neural network, artwork C013 / 4636
Neural network. Computer artwork of nerve cells (neurons) connected by processes (filaments), known as dendrites and axons, to form a neural network. The junctions between cells are formed by synapses (bulb-shaped), which transmit electrical signals from one cell to the next. When the signal reaches the synapse it triggers the release of neurotransmitter chemicals (yellow), which cross the gap to the next cell, where they trigger an electrical impulse

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Neural Network, Artwork C013/4636" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of nerve cells and their interconnectedness. The artwork beautifully illustrates the complexity of our biological communication system. In this visually stunning piece, we witness a neural network composed of neurons intricately connected by dendrites and axons. These filament-like processes extend from one cell to another, forming an elaborate web that facilitates information transmission within our central nervous system. The synapses, depicted as bulb-shaped structures, play a crucial role in this network. They serve as junctions between cells where electrical signals are transmitted from one neuron to the next. Upon reaching these synapses, neurotransmitter chemicals (depicted in vibrant yellow) are released and cross the gap to trigger an electrical impulse in the receiving cell. This artwork not only showcases the beauty found within our own biology but also highlights the remarkable efficiency with which our bodies communicate at a cellular level. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected and interdependent every aspect of our being truly is. With its blend of artistry and scientific accuracy, this print captures both imagination and knowledge. It invites us to marvel at the wonders hidden beneath our skin while deepening our understanding of neurological processes essential for human existence.
