I am putting together an Art & Science Blog (from an artists’ POV) and was looking for some help with the name. “Brigancook,” a mash-up of my names was okay for first-time website. But not too memorable or descriptive of, well, anything.
So instead of baffling the spellchecking programs of the world, I’d rather read into a new title the essence of my blog.
If anyone is game to assist I will be posting threads about Art, Science, Curiosity, Creativity, Exploration… Plenty of images too.
Here are the quotes from an hour of researching the “vibe” of my blog to be.
Thanks in advance for any help!

“Science is an integral part of culture. It’s not this foreign thing, done by an arcane priesthood. It’s one of the glories of the human intellectual tradition.”
~Stephen Jay Gould
“The most erroneous stories are those we think we know best – and therefore never scrutinize or question.”
~Stephen Jay Gould
“Nothing is more dangerous than a dogmatic worldview – nothing more constraining, more blinding to innovation, more destructive of openness to novelty.”
~Stephen Jay Gould
“The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity.” ~unknown
“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” ~ Walt Disney
“It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.” ~ Albert Einstein
“The moment one give close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.” –Henry Miller
“I am not insensible to natural beauty, but my emotional joys center on the improbable yet sometimes wondrous works of that tiny and accidental evolutionary twig called Homo sapiens. And I find, among these works, nothing more noble than the history of our struggle to understand nature -– a majestic entity of such vast spatial and temporal scope that she cannot care much for a little mammalian afterthought with a curious evolutionary invention, even if that invention has, for the first time in some four billion years of life on earth, produced recursion as a creature reflects back upon its own production and evolution. Thus, I love nature primarily for the puzzles and intellectual delights that she offers to the first organ capable of such curious contemplation.”
~Stephen Jay Gould
