HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_013553.jpg

This document appears to be page 53 of a manuscript or memoir found in the House Oversight production. The narrator describes a winter spent at the IHES (Institut des Hautes Études Scientifiques), detailing the uncomfortable living conditions, the social pressure to drink wine at lunch, and their anxiety about presenting seminars on the brain as a dynamical system. The text delves into scientific theory, specifically discussing 'Thom's' (likely René Thom) topological diagrams, discontinuities in functions, and examples involving clinical pharmacology and physical systems like turbulence.
