What do you think of various theories of how left and right hemispheres of the brain work? e.g. The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes, or The Master and his Emissary by Iain McGilchrist. Sometimes I feel like these theories boil down to picrelated.
>>16361380It's clearly pointing at something, but there is a difference between a theory that matches observation and a theory that correctly identifies the cause.Here's another theory I'll throw in: maybe the brain has a "handedness" in a spiral sense. In other words, maybe the average brain has a brainwave that spins clockwise (collectively), whereas a less typical brain has a counterclockwise spin. Same flesh, same structure. However, the spin of the brainwave determines which happens: rationalization or observation. If you rationalize before observing, then you are imagining. If you observe then rationalize, you are being logical.
>>16362386The spin determines the direction your hair grows. The brain is best split into quarters rather than halves for styles of thought anyways.

>>16361380Here's my pet theory:Schizophrenia is the result of right brain dominance, seeing people who don't exist.Autism is the result of left brain dominance, not perceiving people who do exist and understanding them only as ideas, as facts that somehow keep changing.
>>16361380my theory is that none of you have brains and that youre all bots
