Strange Experiments Create Body-Swapping Experiences

[LMNO]

Cf:  RAW's "bananna/knife" experiment.

If it was just limited perception, we would see the gaps.

We make shit up to create a cohesive worldview.

Often, the shit we make up has nothing to do with anything.

This is the ZOOM motorcycle.

We can perform all sorts of experiments to show that the neurological system will simply make shit up, IF it doesn't have data, if it has data it doesn't expect or if it has data which heavily conflicts with its current belief system.

First, we have Bob's old example of interviewing psych students that saw their teacher stabbed by a madman. They accurately describe the knife used, the color of the handle etc... and are surprised when it turns out to have been a banana.

At COSI, a science museum here in Columbus, there is an ingenious toy which feels hot, burning hot to the touch... but it isn't really hot at all. Rather parts of it are cool, which confuses the system and it judges the whole thing as hot.

Examples of change blindness and inattentional blindness can be found at: http://viscog.beckman.uiuc.edu/djs_lab/

There are some great examples there.

Of course not... and when we do, something interesting usually pops out.

Well, if you can't go to school for it... Experience counts for a lot. So if you could get some experience in a related field...
