Unlocking the mysteries of our brain | David Eagleman | The TED Interview

The TED Audio Collective is a collection of podcasts for the curious.
The way that our brain perceives the world is profoundly informed by our senses-so what would happen if we could heighten them-or even create a whole NEW sense? In one of his last episodes as host of the show, Chris Anderson kicks off our series on the future of intelligence by interviewing neuroscientist and author David Eagleman. They’ll decode the mysteries of the brain, consider consciousness and what it means to be human, and dig deep into David’s ground-breaking research on how wearable technology can bypass sensory impairment, translating sound into patterns of vibration for the deaf and hard of hearing.

Good stuff. In addition to his book, check out The Matter with Things by Iain McGilchrist. He really goes deep into how each hemisphere of the brain processes information.
