Akinpelu Obisesan (1889–1963) of Ibadan, was one of Africa’s great diarists of the early 20th century. He left behind 14,000 diary entries across four decades. His diary gives us a useful peep into a 19th/20th century mind. Here are chronologically arranged random excerpts.

Lula’s victory will be greeted with horror in Silicon Valley. Outside the EU, Brazil has been the biggest holders to account of US tech firms. And Facebook’s actions before the election deserve proper scrutiny

Lula victory speech: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. We cannot have monstrously huge corporations earning millions & billions, paying no taxes to this country & trying to steer this country's election results."

Please read and share our paper in the International Journal of Law and Psychiatry👇🏻 It was inspired by a case of a young woman with severe anorexia nervosa @cbulik @solmi_marco @AngelaGuarda and the assisted dying controversy.

The meaning and symbols of the different Yoruba tattoo and how the patterns and motifs were derived. Most Yoruba tattoo motifs were derived from nature and featured cowrie shells (esa), lizards (alangba), palm trees (igi ope), arrows (ofa), ostrich (ogongo), vulture (igun), dove (adaba), chameleon (agemo), centipede (okun), butterfly (labalaba), corn cobs (agbado), and the “moon of honour” (osu ola). Other motifs were taken from the material world and encompassed dance wands (ose) of the Thunder god Sango, Islamic writing boards (walaa), arm amulets (apa tira), a king’s crown (ade oba), staffs of authority (opa oye), game boards (opon ayo), anthropomorphs, the tattooist’s Y-shaped blade (abe), and even scissors, airplanes, wristwatches, and personal names in recent times.

Very excited to share the most important discovery of my career yet: your brain switches between a conscious and an unconscious mode ~15 times every second. Consciousness may depend not on where in the brain activity occurs but when. Find out more below. bit.ly/3WvA6di

Rapid alternation of conscious and suppressed stimulus representations in the primate brain

The neural correlates of consciousness remain elusive[1][1]. Previous studies found that high-level visual cortex is weakly modulated by conscious perception[2][2],[3][3], yet a pure signal of...

1/ We discovered something totally unexpected about the neural structure of consciousness that overturns decades of thinking on its biological basis and brings us significantly closer to the recipe for generating conscious awareness.

Hello, My latest novel The Gele Gang will be available in February 2027. It is the first of my post-lockdown novels. Inspired by Nigerian weddings I attended, it looks and feels like lime sorbet. It's light, sweet and tart, and cleansed my palate for my next course. Sefi
