    The article has a one-sentence answer to the headline (really one word: fractals), which links to this article: https://news.uoregon.edu/content/human-brain-would-rather-lo..., which itself mentions a publication but neither gives a link nor even the title. It does mention that it is written by "physicist Richard Taylor". That's not a typo, the argument is made by a physicist, not a psychiatrist nor a physician, but a physicist.
