What Is the Nature of Consciousness? | Podcast: The Joy of Why

Neuroscience has made progress in deciphering how our brains think and perceive our surroundings, but a central feature of cognition is still deeply mysterious: namely, that many of our perceptions and thoughts are accompanied by the subjective experience of having them. Consciousness, the name we give to that experience, can’t yet be explained — but science is at least beginning to understand it. In this episode, the consciousness researcher Anil Seth and host Steven Strogatz discuss why our perceptions can be described as a “controlled hallucination,” how consciousness played into the internet sensation known as “the dress,” and how people at home can help researchers catalog the full range of ways that we experience the world. - Anil Seth's website: https://profiles.sussex.ac.uk/p22981-... - View "The dress" illusion for yourself: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-... --------- “The Joy of Why” is a Quanta Magazine podcast about curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge.
