(,) Kafka -- and Eraserhead -- can make you smarter

Kafka -- and Eraserhead -- can make you smarter

Study says surrealism can improve learning by compelling the brain to seek out 
structure.

“We rely on structure to make sense of the world,” says Steven J. Heine, 
co-author of the study and a professor of psychology at the University of 
British Columbia. “If you encounter something that you can't relate [to other 
things], that you don't know what to do with it, this sort of puts you off your 
game and you need to search for a reference point again to again find some 
structure.”
