    My neuro classes are a bit behind me, but I want to say unmyelinated nerves can transmit at up to10m/s vs myelinated nerves which transmit at up to 150m/s. The myelination process is really neat.

    One of the biggest things I've learned to learning new things is not to be ashamed or bashful of your own work. The first time you do something new, it's going to be a poor job. Don't be ashamed and don't hide it. Let others see it. If they are good people, they can point out the flaws and give tips on how to improve while also praising where you did well. If they are bad people, they will tear down at any flaw they perceive, without construction and poison what is well done by comparison to the greatest ever. Also beware of flattery without base, they may be genuine, or they may be looking to manipulate.
    Sharing what you are learning with those around you is a good way to filter with this mechanic as to who you should keep in your life, and those you should distance yourself from.

      This is very good advice! Sharing new things is always super hard but you're right that it's the only way to get feedback!

    I always find that so funny I havent drawn in a year yet I can still draw. Everything comes intuitively. I used to think drawing was some kind of intuitive process because we never associate art with any kind of reasoning. It seems that an Artist simply learned how to draw because they were talented and practiced often. In reality the early Artists learned how to draw by dissecting humans and observing light. They passed this knowledge down to their pupils. A lot of the logic is lost and comes off as just intuition, no one really knows how the methods were derived. You practice these methods until it becomes second nature

    Nice job with animation, Alex! I started appreciating it after struggling with my first clip. Btw, what do you think is easier: drawing digitally or on paper?

    • @AlexDainisPhD
      @AlexDainisPhD  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I definitely think digitally drawing is easier (for me) because I have more practice in it and because it supplies me with some basic shapes: if I want a circle, there's a button for that! Drawing in illustrator gives me starting points (straight lines, circles, curves, etc) that I can manipulate rather than having to generate each piece from scratch.

    • @andreytimashov1123
      @andreytimashov1123 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree! And perhaps more importantly, there is a button for "undo". Drawing comes so much easier when you have the right to make mistakes.

    This possible connection between learning and myelination is fascinating! Whenever I am reminded about the process of learning, I can't help but think about dendrite formation.. There is also some recent research implicating microtubules in the process of memory creation. I wonder if learning and memory creation share similarities, or if they are entirely different processes? I feel like you could argue that learning is a form of memory creation. Mind bending stuff nonetheless..

    • @AlexDainisPhD

    scientists have found out the more eloquent you are, the less you're likely to suffer dementia in later ages. I think that also explains why many old actors like Sir Anthony Hopkins, Ian McKellen, and Dame Helen Mirren are still in the entertainment business. Memorising movie scripts keep your brains active and healthy.

  • @AnotherGradus
    @AnotherGradus 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Interesting! To add, in Matthew Walker's book _Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams_ -- that getting a full night's sleep lends to these enhanced myelination models. In various studies, participants could recall more information or readily perform learned tasks than those who were sleep deprived.

    I've been really passionate to learn and become a scientist when I entered university but I quit after finishing my bachelors because nothing really works for me learning-wise. I can suck in a lot of information but I do it very randomly. No matter the enviroment I put myself in, it's a coinflip if I remember stuff or not :/

    KGaA is a „Kommanditgesellschaft auf Aktien“, which is a form of company. It’s a limited partnership, with the fully liable partner being a a joint-stock company.
    Saying KGaA is like saying Ltd. you usually don’t.

    Oh I do NOT like those repetitive exercises for learning to draw, sure, you're working up the motor skills a bit but none of that will actually apply when you're doing real drawing, better IMO to just dive in and start drawing things, practice the motor skills whilst drawing garbage instead of getting your motor skills up to speed, but having literally no idea how to apply them to a piece.... Another interesting/informative vid though, thanks.

    2 people probably thumbed down this video because they saw two bibles in your room but failed to realise that those 2 books have nothing to do with religion at all. They're about drawing, aren't they? Book titles like "Illustrator 9" and "Illustrator CS" don't sound very religious to me.
