What If We're Wrong About Reality? w/Donald Hoffman The ZDoggMD Show

    • Medicine

This podcast will melt your brain, which could be OK because neurons are just symbolic representations of a deeper reality according to our guest, Professor Donald Hoffman.
In this wide-ranging discussion we talk about visual perception (and ALL perception) as a construction, rather than a reconstruction, and we dive into free will, synesthesia, split brain experiments, consciousness as the fundamental currency of reality, simulation theory, "conscious realism" as a theory, and much more.
To quote Neo from the Matrix: “WHOA.”
