In deze film worden de wetenschapper, Edward O. Wilson en de kunstenaar, Jan Fabre, tegenover elkaar gezet. Hun domeinen moeten elkaar in een consilience raken om de hersenen en de schoonheid beter te begrijpen.
'Am I a simple soul?
Because my brain does not yet feel
what my heart can already think?
Is it true that the brain
is the most sexy part of the body?
Today's performance with
the entomologist and biologist
Edward O. Wilson
was a search for the consilience
between the sciences and art.
(There is an arrow through my brain!)'
(Jan Fabre, Boston, 17 November 2006)
