YOUR BRAIN HALLUCINATES YOUR CONSCIOUS REALITY
Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience - and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil Seth, we're all hallucinating all the time; when we agree about our hallucinations, we call it "reality." Join Seth for a delightfully disorienting talk that may leave you questioning the very nature of your existence.
The speaker:
Anil Seth - Cognitive neuroscientist. How can the "inner universe" of consciousness be explained in terms of mere biology and physics? Anil Seth explores the brain basis of consciousness and self.
