Dear Rawn,

>>>Right-vs-left hemisphere is certainly a left-hemisphere sort of 
way of putting it, but that's basically the correct idea. Ultimately 
though, the magician must integrate the two hemispheres (i.e., the 
whole of one's consciousness) and be able to employ both 
simultaneously or separately (i.e., be able to use whatever part of 
their whole consciousness is needed and still process their 
perceptions through the other parts).<<<

I'm a psychology student, the whole right-vs-left hemisphere idea is 
just a convenient theory to help me to understand it all. Recently I 
came across a book entitled _The New Drawing on the Right Side of the 
Brain_ by Betty Edwards which details a methodology to help draw upon 
the right side of the brains intuitive and spatial qualities to allow 
for better drawing and artistic talents. While I haven't gone through 
all of the different exercises within it, it certianly does seem to 
be an effective methodology for learning how to use the often 
underdeveloped right side of the brain. Though, by any means Betty 
Edwards does not suggest that either side of the brain is better than 
the other.

Love and Live well,
Peter Reist
