Hallucinating Reality | Anil Seth TED Talks

Written by on July 10, 2021

 

This talk does a great job of reinforcing the idea that the reality we experience is happening in our imagination. We aren’t looking through windows or holes in our head, we are taking in lots of different sensory data and our brain and mind work together to hallucinate what is in our field of view.

This also helps us understand that we are not as much our body as we think we are. We can see that we are more closely related to what is experiencing all of the sensory data that our body brings in.

Great talk and worth a watch.
