Elevator mural casts you as Adam on the Sistine Chapel's ceiling

Scanned from an unknown source, a mural near the elevator in a plastic surgeon's office that casts the rider in the role of Adam on the Sistine Chapel.

Previously:

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

And, by implication, the surgeon is God. How unsurprising a metaphor!

Oh, sure, but just TRY and be accurately costumed as Adam, and out come the security goons….

That’s the part of the painting (The Creation of Adam) where the area occupied by God resembles a cross-section of the brain.
