I think I am getting close to locating where the brain picture was taken, but I could be wrong. Any Londoners know if the Science Museum has brains in jars like the one shown?0

Ok, this is a bit complex, but it does appear that the actual brain shown in the photo can be found at the Science Museum in London. The following video shows a human brain in a vat with the label "homo" as shown in the photo. It's a bit deep into the video and requires a stupid download from Microsoft to view. Ugh.

About 7:40 seconds into the video it shows a brain in a jar after showing several inventions of the brain's original owner.
And it looks like the brain belongs to Babbage.
Charles Babbage, FRS (26 December 1791 – 18 October 1871)[2] was an English mathematician, philosopher, inventor and mechanical engineer who originated the concept of a programmable computer. Parts of his uncompleted mechanisms are on display in the London Science Museum. In 1991, a perfectly functioning difference engine was constructed from Babbage's original plans. Built to tolerances achievable in the 19th century, the success of the finished engine indicated that Babbage's machine would have worked. Nine years later, the Science Museum completed the printer Babbage had designed for the difference engine, an astonishingly complex device for the 19th century. Considered a "father of the computer"[3] Babbage is credited with inventing the first mechanical computer that eventually led to more complex designs.

Now I think I'm going to look a bit into the anatomy picture. Some starting point thoughts for any other backspacer investigators are Galen (father of anatomy), a reference to "The Anatomy of Torture" which is about a landmark decision in human rights law, or Andreas Vesalius and the De humani corporis fabrica. All of these could be false starts, but it's where I think I'll start digging when I get a chance. Hmm... or maybe Foucault's Pendulum or The Pit and Pendulum? Haha, brain about to overload, I think.0

From Wikipedia:
Snoop Dogg's Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp is a mixed hardcore pornography and hip hop music video featuring the music of rapper Snoop Dogg, produced by Hustler Video. The video was also directed,[1] co-produced[2] and presented by him, although he does not feature in any sex scenes.[3] In the films credits Snoop is listed under the moniker "Snoop Scorsese".[1] It was released in 2002, a year after Snoop Dogg set the trend of mixed hip hop porn movies with Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle.[3][4] The film features Snoop hosting a party with more than 40 porn stars.[4] He plays the role of a pimp, who dresses in outlandish outfits, and persuades a prudish journalist to become one of his girls.[3] It became the top-selling U.S. pornographic film of 2003.I desire peace where I live

Posted that snoop pic back on page 8 already
But it looks like we're on a similar wavelength in thinking it may be somehow related to Snoop.

Amen. I wanted to quit thinking about this awhile ago, but when I try to stop I find myself wondering something like, "Okay, maybe that isn't meant to be taken as a literal burning train... but rather a kid killed by a Fire Engine..." But enough is enough for tonight. :oops:0 -

Where will Hirst look next for inspiration?
Despite not a whiff of rotting flesh or formaldehyde, Damien Hirst, the so-called "bad boy" of British art, has again prompted a storm of protest with his latest work.
Hymn, a 20-ft bronze sculpture of a male torso, has angered Hull-based company Humbrol, which fears the art work is a direct copy of its Young Scientist Anatomy Set.
Seemingly adding insult to injury, Hymn is the first of Hirst's works to net him a cool £1m, catapulting him into the super league of British artists alongside Lucian Freud and David Hockney.
Humbrol's model, complete with removable organs, can be picked up for less than £15 at toy shops around the country.

Wow, not sure how I missed that post, but yep... looks like that's a wrap on that piece of the puzzle filled in too. Glad I decided to check in before logging off for good tonight. Thanks for pointing that out, saved me a bunch of aimless net-wandering tomorrow...err... later today!Post edited by Soulfire42 on0 -

So true. The worst part is it's all my fault!
Introducing... The Cosmic Drummer
"We all march to the cadence of this cosmic drummer—our planetary heartbeat, which
sets the tempo for health and well-being."
"This universal motion carries us all onwards to a future beyond our imagination; the first breath of babies pulsates because of the universal rhythm; so does the earth in its seasonal changes and successions. The sun also expands and contracts, i.e. "breathes," according to the latest scientific discovery reports, and no doubt our home galaxy or Milky Way flows outward and returns inward to a center in so large a sweep of time that it may seem motionless to us. But the tiniest subparticle making up an atom of our physical body also must move to the beat of the cosmic drummer, as do all of us together."
And finally
Of course, none of this means anything until we find the image Mr. Tomorrow appropriated. That's the essential part.0 -

Is it possible that the images also relate the Pearl Jam songs or lyrics? The devil on his shoulder picture (from World Wide Suicide). Brain of J...not sure about the others, but those two immediately come to mind.0

Not sure if this picture has been posted yet...seems like the drummer pic could have been taken from this one

Yup! I'm still impressed!
I just wanted to throw in a theory - actually, my husband's theory but he doesn't like to post..
He was looking at the artwork and he thinks there is one thing in all the pictures have... a brain or looks like a brain.
Picture 1 - he can't find the look of a "brain", but maybe like burning your brain.
Picture 2 - obvious.
Picture 3 - the flower in pocket.
Picture 4 - trees on the left corner.
Picture 5 - obvious.
Picture 6 - can't find it...maybe in his space helmet? Me: "Thinking outside of the box"?
Picture 7 - the fire.
Picture 8 - can't find it....maybe Raquel's panties?
Picture 9 - the scarf she's holding...it's what holds the brain together. "You'd have to be out of your mind doing what she did."
Use your fucking brain, he says...not to follow others, but to think for yourself and use it to solve problems.
Just throwing that out there...JA: Why do I get the Ticketmaster question?
EV: It's your band.
