shifts in your systolic blood pressure: This careful work has been carried out by Sarah Garfinkel and Hugo Critchley, who painstakingly measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure and cognitive activities like assessing risk, tracking down to the millisecond how the heart’s contraction and distribution of blood through the body (systolic blood pressure) influences perceptions of risk.

a strange and unexpected emptiness: For a terrific discussion of the eerie and the strange, read: Fisher, Mark. The Weird and the Eerie. London: Sheperton House, 2016. In this book, Fisher details distinctions between the weird (which is based in the presence of the strange) and the eerie (which is rooted in the sense of absence). Grounded in this distinction, Fisher then takes the reader on a tour of the importance of these states in the works of people like H. G. Wells, Margaret Atwood, David Lynch, Stanley Kubrick, Brian Eno, and Philip K. Dick (author of the book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, basis of the awe-inspiring film Blade Runner, and of whom many who live in Berkeley are proud, because he graduated from Berkeley High School in the same era as Ursula K. Le Guin).
