Couldn’t help but notice a few connections here…. Though my draw over isn’t quite accurate, notice the golden geometry that naturally presents itself when placing the nucleus of the spiral right on top of the “brain of the heart” or the Atrioventricular Node.

Chicken embryo vascular system

This fluorescence micrograph shows the vascular system of a developing chicken embryo (Gallus gallus), two days after fertilisation. Injecting fluorescent dextran revealed the entire vasculature used by the embryo to feed itself from the rich underlying yolk inside the egg. The image shows the central chicken embryo surrounded by veins and arteries. The head of the embryo, including the embryonic eye and brain, can be seen on the upper part of the embryo, just above the embryonic heart. The long lower part of the embryo is the future body of the chicken, from which legs and wings will develop. At this stage of development, the embryo and its surrounding vasculature are a little smaller than a 5p coin.

I always had a feeling about that mysterious Pineal Gland…. I’m blown away that the illusive “third eye” of the brain is also the center of that perfect ratio, 1.618.

My Brachiosaurus reconstructions. The musculature is based heavily off of our extant friend the giraffe. I’ll finish this series off with the skin—I’ll hopefully start and finish it today and have it up here sometime next week. :)
