BBC NEWS | Health | Just what does make me 'me'?

By Marcus du Sautoy Professor of mathematics at the University of Oxford

Professor du Sautoy set out to find out the real him

Over the last few months I have been on an extraordinary journey to find out what makes me "me".

I have had my brain scanned, tricked, electrocuted, drugged in a plethora of different experiments in my attempt to find out what it is that gives me the feeling that there is someone inside my head.

Science calls it the search for consciousness. I call it the search for "me".

I was not always aware of myself as a human being separate from those around me.

But at what point does this self-awareness kick-in?

Awww, it's so cute! ((tages: hardware stores, San Francisco, hardware, vendor))

I went to visit one of my favorite hardware stores in San Francisco this past weekend to see if my favorite item was still there... a $93.00 luthier's planer. It's adorable.  So are the $24.00 rosewood ones from India, but this one is from a now defunct US manufacturer. There is also a beautiful wooden level... I love tools...

So super pleased to give a shout out to Adam and NYC Resistor, home of the Bartending Robot. I found this video today trying to be inspired about my own card design. It isn't going to be nearly this clever.

If you are in New York you should check them out. I really enjoyed going to the Arduino Hacklab there before I moved.
