The Ghost In The Machine


Yes, another medical slide, and to my untrained eye it appears to be a torso / spine.

The post's title just came to me in a flash, and it's worth having a read of the Wikipedia article. The title is a phrase coined by the Oxford philosopher Gilbert Ryle to describe the Cartesian dualist account of the mind–body relationship. Koestler shares with Ryle the view that the mind of a person is not an independent non-material entity, temporarily inhabiting and governing the body.

It's also an Album by The Police, which has my fave track of theirs.

X-Ray Specs


Using my pair of Acme co X-Ray Specs, I can confidently diagnose this patient as having Dave's Syndrome.

Or having swallowed a Balloon animal.

Hmmm

Right.   The medical slides.

Quite unsettling.

You know that phrase "Organised Chaos"?  I struggle to see any organisation here.

X-Ray Ted


OK.  Right.

An X-Ray obviously, but  umm...no other info available.

From a set of assorted medical training slides, so I'm guessing it's a human. Child perhaps?
