The NeuromanticsSeason 1Episode 3What are we actually seeing when we visualise the world? How could the blind Milton have recreated such a sumptuously colourful Eden? And why do babies use their mouths as the first means of ‘seeing’ objects? In episode 3 of The Neuromantics, writer Will Eaves and neuroscientist Professor Sophie Scott explore what happens when our brains recreate external images, stopping off to discuss aphantasia, how primate brains compute colour and how the writer Saki constructed a child’s world view in his deliciously dark short story, The Lumber Room.Brought to you by Tempest Productions www.tempestproductions.netFind other episodes here: soundcloud.com/user-986948053/sets/the-neuromanticsPodcast copyright Will Eaves & Sophie Scott; articles and texts discussed copyright authors
