About this listen

Modern science has plenty of "scraps"—data points on neurons, chemistry, and connectivity—but we are still searching for the full picture of consciousness. In today’s episode, we discuss the "uneasy triangle" of Mind, Perception, and Reality.

We explore the fascinating spectrum of human thought: from those who live with a constant internal monologue to those who experience a profound, sensory silence. Is the "voice in your head" an evolutionary masterpiece or just a cheap rehearsal engine? We also tackle the "Crisis of Computation"—the mental burnout caused by a modern world that demands more choices than our 20-watt brains were ever designed to handle.

Credits & Thanks:I want to extend a huge thank you to the NotebookLM for giving my research a voice and helping me transform academic "scraps" into a conversational deep-dive.
