Another mosaic

The image below is to be used to showcase my research in the department foyer.

Brain-image mosaic made from many tiny pictures, with yellow regions marking fMRI activation across several slices.

It is an adaptation of a panel from a figure in my Journal of Neuroscience paper. The mosaic effect is created using text from the paper.  The image was generated using the somewhat buggy, but very usable Textaliser Pro.

(Yes, I know I'm a one-trick pony.)

      Denise - It's worth taking a look at that software, it's very versatile and can create some nice effects. You just have to watch out for the occasional malfunction!
