MarzulloHead Queries: Head Gasket Finally Replaced
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2008/11/head-gasket-finally-replaced.html
Sunday, November 2, 2008. Head Gasket Finally Replaced. With a screw driver I was able to scrape off the carbon deposits on the valves in question (. Then, with a combination of steel brushes, more screwdrivers, rags, and engine cleaners, I tried my best to remove the gasket material from the bottom of the cylinder head. I couldn't make it completely clean, but I made it as smooth as I could, and with a straight edge the bottom of the head did not seem warped. So, Bopper,. I bought some special gasket se...

MarzulloHead Queries: September 2008
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 20, 2008. Tour de Troit 2008. Last Saturday my friends and I went on a 42 mile bike ride through Detroit as part of an annual revitalization event. I had two bikes: I let my girlfriend take my mountain bike, and I rode in my folding bike. The trip began at the old Michigan Central Station. A beautiful abandoned building that was in an odd part of town even when it was newly constructed. It will never be torn down and will forever remain perpetually mired in aborted renovation plans.

MarzulloHead Queries: Bringing Neuroscience to the Garage - The Interview
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2008/11/bringing-neuroscience-to-garage.html
Saturday, November 29, 2008. Bringing Neuroscience to the Garage - The Interview. When I can spare the time, my favorite hobby is to go into the garage. Put some music on, and work on my cars. I enjoy it so much, sometimes it has bothered me. If you should do what you love, and given a choice I would rather spend my time in the garage, why am I a neuroscientist? Shouldn't I be a mechanical engineer? 160;writer for ScienceBlogs, covered the event rather nicely for us. Educators heavily encouraged us to co...

MarzulloHead Queries: Backyard Brains Launched
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2009/04/backyard-brains-launched.html
Wednesday, April 22, 2009. All of my spare time the past few months has been devoted to getting the $100 spike operational as my colleague Greg Gage and I try to start up our company ". Backyard Brains, Inc. Yes folks, we were playing, in real-time, spikes out of my car stereo last week trying to impress the folks on the sidewalk as we were cruising. It was quite fun, because when Greg would stick the prep out the window of the car, the wind stimulus would increase the spike rate! Ann Arbor, MI.

MarzulloHead Queries: October 2008
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 24, 2008. This was an e-mail I sent to some of my gearhead friends today regarding the repair of my 1981 Toyota Tercel "Bopper":. I am finally putting Bopper back together and am almost ready to put the head back on the engine. Turning the head upside down to clean off all the old baked-on gasket material, I noticed one of the valves, third from right in attached picture (with a closer view in another picture) has some weird precipitate on it. Friday, October 3, 2008. Ann Arbor, MI. View ...

MarzulloHead Queries: The Cingularity Paper Published
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2008/06/cingularity-paper-published.html
Thursday, June 26, 2008. The Cingularity Paper Published. The story has been extensively documented on my friend Shelley's old blog Retrospectacle. Earlier this year Greg and I wrote it up in a manuscript form at the request of a German satirical neuroscience book publisher who saw the poster. The image above was made by Greg as an idea for the cover of the magazine. Unfortunately, we didn't get the cover, but the work was just published in the current issue. 160;Read and enjoy!

MarzulloHead Queries: Yes, We got a Spike
http://marzullohead.blogspot.com/2009/04/yes-we-got-spike.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. Yes, We got a Spike. My colleague Greg Gage has designed a rather nice amplifier for recording spikes from the cockroach leg, and we are now in the commercialization process. For validation and comparison purposes, I also built an amplifier based on previously published designs. Tonight, finally, after 10 years of neuroscience education, I recorded a spike in my home workshop. The El Camino feels neglected. So super sexy and incredibly awesome! I request a live performance.
