David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

So that's what I've been working on for a while now, which is given that all these other animals have other kinds of things they can pick up on, what does it mean if we feed in that information?

David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

And the answer is yes, we can absolutely have sixth sense, maybe many more.

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

We don't have any idea yet what the limit is on that.

But the idea is what can we pick up on computationally or with any machine or whatever, and then feed that into you?

David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

So for example,

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

you know, something I've been very interested in is perceiving infrared light.

So you can set up, we've, you know, set this up with the wristband very inexpensively for five bucks.

You set up these infrared bolometers, they're called, they're, you know, just picking up on infrared light and you can walk around and feel the,

David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

the temperature of things around you.

And as I'm walking through a parking lot, I can feel which cars have been parked there for a while versus which have just arrived in the last 20 minutes.

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

Because the engine block is a totally different temperature.

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

But it's just something I know as I'm walking through.

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

I'm just...

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)
David Eagleman: The Psychology of Time, How the Brain Shapes Reality & Human Nature | Human Behavior | YAPClassic

feeling that information.

Young and Profiting with Hala Taha (Entrepreneurship, Sales, Marketing)

Or if I come across two chairs, I can tell which chair was more recently sat in because there's still a temperature signature on it and so on.

There's a million things about this that one can just come to perceive in new sense, but you can have much wackier things.
