little bit interesting, i’ve been banging on for years with a half a theory that something of the vision processing system found its way elsewhere (duplicated possibly, or process replication of sorts, in the broader wetware), put to some other purpose (consciousness).
how might it tend a theory of mind, awareness of internal environment, extra sense of the activity and willed application of mind tools.
that sort of thing
has to be some bidirectionality there somewhere, you know what’s projected on the big screen of the real world, and there’s imagination.
lot of processing of geometry in vision (light, gravity, motion of objects with mass), but I don’t know what tricks were or might have been happened upon to do the other business.
there’s something there, just imagining myself from different perspectives it’s in that whatever.
lot of power in the vision processing systems, given how quickly and how much is done.
