Mind Moving Cubes - Reverse Phi
At no point do the pixels representing the box actually shift in the directions they are appearing to.
When our brains notice things transitioning from light to dark they perceive it as motion. This is a visual concept known as Reverse Phi.

AI Mind Reading - World-first - Translates Thoughts Directly From Brainwaves Without Implants
via ' SCIENCE ALERT'
New 'Mind-Reading' AI Translates Thoughts Directly From Brainwaves – Without Implants
A world-first, non-invasive AI system can turn silent thoughts into text while only requiring users to wear a snug-fitting cap.
The Australian researchers who developed the technology, called DeWave, tested the process using data from more than two dozen subjects.
Participants read silently while wearing a cap that recorded their brain waves via electroencephalogram (EEG) and decoded them into text.

“Is seeing believing?” - Explore the illusion the HumanOS produces
“Is seeing believing?”
From 1961 we explore the illusion the HumanOS produces (AI hallucinations) when it is taxed beyond its abilities.
There is nothing really optical about this illusion.

Brainstorm ~ Green needle : Excerpted audio perception clip

It is the short demonstration/discussion on the "brainstorm" or "green needle" debate stemming from a 2012 video of a review of toys from the children's television show Ben 10 Alien Force. The toy is programmed to say the word "brainstorm," but not everyone is hearing it that way.

Indonesian Mimic Octopus
The mimic octopus was discovered in 1998 off the coast of Sulawesi, Indonesia. They get their name for their ability to change their skin colors, texture and shape in order to 'mimic' being other sea life animals.
SCUBA divers have reported Mimic Octopuses resembling: Sole Fish (flounder), Lionfish, Sea snakes, Anemones, Stingrays, Mantis shrimp, Jellyfish, Crocodile snake, eels, Seahorses, Feather stars, Nudibranchs, Brittle stars, Sponges, Tube worms and Colonial tunicates.

Carol Santa Fe: The Woman Who Married A Train Station - objectophilia
Carol Santa Fe prefers objectophilia relationships. She is another person in the objectum sexuality (OS) community and married the Santa Fe train station in 2015 after the two had been in love for 36 years. Carol has stated the station is a female named Diadra.
Objectum sexuality is a relatively new term to describe those that identify with this sexual orientation to being attracted to inanimate objects, on a romantic, sexual or emotional level. The term first appeared in the 1970s to identify a woman whose strong feelings for the Berlin Wall prompted her to marry the concrete barrier.

Clive Wearing: 7 second memory - Short overview (memory)
Clive Wearing was a talented musician, conductor, and singer. In his 40s when he came home with a headache. The headache increased and after days of pain, he started to forget things.
According to psychologists and doctors, Wearing's hippocampus was completely eradicated by viral encephalitis. This gave him what is called anterograde amnesia, which refers to the inability to make or keep memories. However, Wearing also has retrograde amnesia, which refers to losing previous memories as well.

David Pearce - Paradise Engineering: A Non-Trivial Pursuit of Happiness
Paradise Engineering is non-trivial for a couple of reasons:
a) the pursuit of this vision of happiness is not trivial – it is likely to be a very challenging endeavor
b) the aim is to achieve non-trivial modes of happiness, kinds of information-sensitive gradients of bliss
Imagine the best experience possible – it would be lower than tomorrows floor.
The Hedonistic Imperative outlines how genetic engineering and nanotechnology will abolish suffering in all sentient life.
The abolitionist project is hugely ambitious but technically feasible. It is also instrumentally rational and morally urgent. The metabolic pathways of pain and malaise evolved because they served the fitness of our genes in the ancestral environment. They will be replaced by a different sort of neural architecture – a motivational system based on heritable gradients of bliss.

Zombie Snails – (modified host behaviour)
How a zombie snail is formed is truly fascinating.
A parasitic worm called Leucochloridium needs a host — a host is a body a parasite can live in and take control of. For this worm, that body belongs to a snail. which attracts the birds that eat them. Eventually the bird 'poops' out the parasite onto leaves. Eventually a snail will the poop and eat it becoming a zombie for the cycle to repeat over and over ....

Zombifying Parasitic Fungus Takes Over Insects – (modified host behaviour)
Cordyceps is a genus of fungi that multiplies by spreading its spores just like other types of fungi do, but the interesting plot twist here is that Cordyceps’ spores are parasitic; they turn their insect host into a mindless zombie.
There are more than600 different species of Cordyceps fungi, each targeting a particular species of insect, whether it be ants, dragonflies, cockroaches, aphids, or beetles.

The Crab Castrating Zombifying Parasite – (modified host behaviour)
Practically ignored and unstudied since an outbreak among Alaskan crabs in the 1980s, this parasitic barnacle can actually control, castrate, and feminize its host!
Briarosaccus callosus eventually influences their behavior with the sole purpose of infecting others with its larvae, creating what marine biologist Leah Sloan refers to as “zombie crabs.”

How can information help discern physics? What can physics contribute to understanding information? And what about quantum information?
