    A Grey Matter

    72 sheets of grey paper, text, lecture notes from Professor Marty Sereno’s lecture series Neuroimaging (University of California 2006), explaining how MRI images are obtained. The title is "A Grey Matter". This is a joke with words that might not translate. "Grey matter" is an often used name for brain substance, whilst "a grey matter" could also mean "a grey topic" or "a gray issue", implying something boring, or something "in the gey area" meaning "shady" or "undefined".
