Can Brain Scans Really Tell Us What Makes Something Beautiful?
When art meets neuroscience, strange things happen.

And then there’s the ongoing war of words between scientists who think it’s possible to use analysis of brain activity to define beauty–or even art–and their critics who argue that it’s absurd to try to make sense of something so interpretive and contextual by tying it to biology and the behavior of neurons.
