Memory research


I have started researching the meaning of memory... How our brain uses it and how it develops in our own minds. An interesting comparison is human memory verses the image seen when viewing 3-D. The stereo image is also represented in our mind. There is a transformation of the image in the visual process and a mental interpretation that uses the physical image to create a new dimension. The brain interprets the image and sees relationships between space to create a new reality. Not a new concept.

Check out Ivan Sutherland's "head mounted display".
