ABOUT THE BOOK
The first in the world on the subject of Ideasthesia, this book will make you think until it hurts. Read it, and you will never see reality the same way. Rated as one of Top 10 in the world by BookAuthority.org among all books on the human brain, in 2020.
How does the brain’s function resemble Artificial Intelligence we know? Ideasthesia might be a unique tool to look inside and find out.
The entire length of the book is a dialogue between two people, ending with a surprise. Offering her story from a first person perspective, the author invites readers into her Phantom Reality, where the neurological phenomenon of Ideasthesia manifests itself. It is there that all abstract thought is visualized and can be experienced as part of the body, with its colors, textures, weight, velocity, and the magic possibilities of movement and transformation one can only imagine in real life.
One of the key suggestions in the book is that Ideasthesia is simply a heightened awareness of the underlying mental processes in which all humans engage.
Written in plain language, yet teeming with mental puzzles and symbolism, this book brings forth ideas that pique readers’ curiosity with suggestion, forcing one to continue the train of thought, until one arrives at one’s own surprising conclusions.
A composition of poeticism and humor, framed in surrealism and postmodernism, this book covers a formidable array of topics, and addresses such captivating questions as:
How might Artificial Intelligence be related to the human brain function?
What kind of mathematics does the brain use for its calculations?
Is music reminiscent of the neural networks?
Do thoughts follow the laws of physics?
Where is the consciousness located?
Did Einstein have Ideasthesia?
What is intuition?
Finally, the mission of this book is to help explore one of the most tantalizing questions of all times—How does the human brain really work?—so that we can understand ourselves better, and ultimately create an artificial mind, modeled after our own.
ABOUT IDEASTHESIA
Ideasthesia is a rare neurological phenomenon that augments human thinking, by allowing the brain to map its cognitive processes in the five human senses, where abstract ideas are experienced as physical objects, acting according to physical laws. This little studied human ability can potentially help science tackle the most perplexing and urgent of questions, including organization of the human brain itself.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Vera Dragilyova is a Synesthete and an Ideasthete. She studied Cognitive Science at UC Berkeley and Information Design at Bentley University. She is a lifelong researcher, filmmaker, singer, polyglot, and a world traveler.
