One thing I do not understand is . If seeing a ghost is an illusion , why do two observers at the same time see the same thing ?
humanity is so hard to know what is the soul. they are really pathetic
Does that mean that mind uploading could one day be possible in the future(near or far)?.
If anyone is really interested in deeper thinking topics, this video is from a document on Netflix called The Most Unkown. And I highly recommend watching the whole thing
This thing with the big kites at the end, what is that called?
The guy from the netflix show :p Really boring stahf
The biggest shared hallucination ever was 9/11. that shit's a bigger sham than my marriage.
re "why consiousness is a part of our universe at all". It seems likely that consiousness came about as an evolutionary advantage. It is much easier to avoid danger, find food, and find a mate if a being is conscious. Don't ever overlook something because it seems too obvious or too simple. Even our sense of humour is a useful evolutionary tool, in terms of passing intelligence genes on to the next generation, as one has a better chance to get laid if one can make one's girl laugh and have fun on a date.
Its very cool that we still don't know much about how the brain works.
What’s the song that starts at 0:55 ???
Fuck erbody
To understand consciousness, you have to change your perspective and imagine the hurdles evolution had to face. Evolution of senses. I already know why we dream.. and that's because of aware-defenses in audio-visual form while rested. It's complicated to say it in words.. not as much but i m being lazy. But I know ..
our minds and our perception of the world is in this form that is built for survival.
i promist you, your company, vice/motherboard, at the moment have issues, and problem. for instance even here, i can't even watch a video for 40 seconds without someone 'playfully' being stabbed with a knife
you should sort out your journalism
Continuous over time… perception (yet absolutely no thing)
my man, Motherboard
You know how you truly study hallucinations? 150ug of LSD, at least.
i thought this was a fractle example comparing the patterns of a brain to a cup of coffee
Wut
Having experienced an "ego" death on LSD during a party I can fully agree the "self" is a hallucination built masterfully by the brain. Quite the shocking experience not being able to determine one's own existence and the boundaries between internal and external. It's like being dead, but alive.
The day psychedelics are brought into the hands of passionate scientists is the day humanity will start to understand itself.
Lmao this neuro"scientist" is trying to solve something that isn't a problem. Just another neurotic in the wrong field.
It's all about survival, not just of the self but the species as a whole. Think in terms of evolution; who best adapt to survive even when danger comes.
Jesus this is funny ?. He's lost wondering why there is consciousness in our universe when all there is… is consciousness.
I like these videos but they lack detail and explanation. Maybe it's made for a more general audience but if you're going to put so much time and effort into a video with a neuroscientist and a physicist, why not make it more scientifically informative?
Without consciousness there would be nothing else. That's what I think. Tree falling in forest shit
Around 1:52 was an example of the most unpractical way to have a quick conversation. Meet in the middle of the country side and talk about the wonderful things in the lab thats at a different location. LOL
Something isn’t adding up here. Arguably some of the smartest, most technically proficient people on earth and all they have to show for it are a few old parlor tricks? Either this video failed to capture a accurate representation of the field or sadly, its pathetically still in its infancy and really isn’t news at all. This is disappointing.
The VR is trying to fool your brain. While the brain may try to correct itself, it can only do through other senses. If all senses are manipulated, your brain would deem that as real.
"You think that's air you're breathing?"
That one patch of unshaved hair on this dude's head is really bothering me. Can't even focus on the video. Like why bro, all that brainpower, why can't you just shave that shit
0:55 the Minecon Earth theme plays
dont do the flashing light thing at the start or at all please.
I would love to study more about the subconscious and the human mind watching this video has got me curious and wondering more about how we see the world around us
Motherboard is to Vice what Verge science is to The Verge
This is factually false statements about reality. This not science. It is fiction playing at science.
such a fantastic documentary
engaging and easily absorbed
brilliant!!!, very nice perspective, i love this presentation,
Your content game has been A+, Motherboard!
Keep doing what you're doing.
Just two dudes, having a good time, having a good time!
Well, take as an example that figment of your imagination that called "voting": you seem "conscious" about confirming third-party hallucinations.
Very nice video. Motherboard always makes some good mini documentaries ?
Trying to solve a mystery which has been solved by monks thousands of years ago.
Everything is one conciousness experiencing itself for the higher good.
