Your Brain Creates Reality (And Most People Don't Realise It) | Professor Chris Frith

For over fifty years, Professor Chris Frith has helped shape modern neuroscience’s understanding of perception, agency, memory and the self. But I didn’t want to interview the scientist. I wanted to interview the human being behind a lifetime of asking one question: what are we actually experiencing? In this conversation we explore predictive perception, why memory is more like reconstruction than replay, whether we truly choose our actions, how other people shape our sense of self, and why Chris believes consciousness may be far more social than we imagine. The interview ends with one question that even after fifty years of neuroscience, still doesn’t have an easy answer. ——— If this conversation resonated, consider subscribing and joining us for future explorations into consciousness, identity, dreams, OBEs, philosophy and the human experience. ⸻ 🌍 Website https://www.soulwanderersasha.com 🌿 Patreon (Community)   / soulwanderersasha   💬 Reflective Conversations (one-to-one): https://tally.so/r/rj1bPN ——— 📖 Chris and Uta’s Book (Two Heads): https://amzn.eu/d/0aMSXcAP 📖 Chris’ Book (Making up the Mind): https://amzn.eu/d/0blZayya 🌍Chris’ website: https://frithmind.org #SoulWandererSasha #Consciousness #HumanExperience #Perception #Neuroscience #PredictiveProcessing
