Brain Activity in Various Situations
1. Anne, the landscape artist, is standing at her easel painting with her right hand as she looks out the window at her garden. She's listening to classical music as she paints.
- Anne’s cerebellum is keeping her balance as she stands and paints with her right hand
- The reticular formation is receiving the information from Anne’s senses and filtering it so that relevant senses get priority like the music she is listening to and the garden she is looking at outside while painting.
- Anne’s hippocampus could be used heavily if she is painting a scene from memory as it is responsible for recalling memories and sending them to be visualized.
- The corpus collosum is vital in this situation as she transfers information from her creative side of her brain while painting to the other side when she must actually paint the image with her brush and paints in a certain process.
