Oliver Sacks: What Hallucination Reveals About Our Minds
Docs & Non-Fiction (Health, Science)
[ 18:48 - from TED ]
Dr. Oliver Sacks (of "Awakenings" fame) discusses the curious phenomenon of visual hallucinations and what they tell us about how our brains work. This clip is a riveting introduction to the strange fact of how totally lucid, sane people can "see things". Sacks draws you in as if he's telling a ghost story but his intelligence and warmth provide a welcome, empathetic look into this strange natural occurrence.
