PAGE 10 (Four panels)

Panel One: DR. HOPE MONTCLAIR (“Hope”) is seen lying in an MRI tube, wearing a hospital gown.

Character design note: Hope is a woman in her late twenties, pretty with short black hair and intense black eyes. She should be pale (spends a lot of late nights in the lab) and a little short.

Caption: There might have been more tedious things done for the sake of science than what I’m doing now.

Panel Two: Close up on Hope’s face as she lies in the tube. She is wearing a look of intense concentration.

Caption: Something having to do with the classification of beetles, maybe.

Panel Three: A P.O.V. for Hope. She is looking at the projection of four images of an eye, a tin can, waving lines representing water, and a female sheep (thus a rebus Eye-Can-Sea-Ewe=”I can see you.”).

Caption: The hope is that I can focus on images and their relationship to language really hard and for a really long time.

Panel Four: A “scan view” of Hope’s brain, projected on a screen outside the MRI tube.

Caption: The hope is that eventually we will have a comprehensive mapping between concepts in my mind and activity in my brain.
