Omni Brain
An exploration of the serious/fun/ridiculous - past/present/future of the brain and the science that loves it.
The Homunculus
The Omnibrain is a psychology graduate student at an online university. He hopes that the three weeks and $29.95 that he is spending on his Ph.D. will get him a job at a Tier 1 research university. Do online universities have postdocs? Ok...just kidding, The Omnibrain is a real graduate student at a real school somewhere in the continental United States - or maybe Europe.

I love the creative ways some artists juxtapose the words "revolve" and "evolve". The Haunted, a Swedish thrash/death metal band I'm a huge fan of, named their second to last album rEVOLVEr, in my estimation to indicate an evolution in their musical style that maintains the violence and aggression they've been known for.
(BTW, if there are any extreme/underground metal fans reading this, both rEVOLVEr and The Dead Eye are awesome albums, a bit like Slayer with far more melody and lyrical eloquence. Buy them.)
