TEDx Talks The Brain's VR Engine & a Case for Humanist Ethics | Shimon Edelman | TEDxCornellUniversity

Shimon Edelman holds degrees in electrical engineering and in computer science and is trying to understand the brain/mind through behavioral, neurophysiological, evolutionary, and computational studies of vision, language, happiness, and consciousness. His books include "Computing the Mind: How the Mind Really Works", "The Happiness of Pursuit", and, most recently, "Beginnings", a psychological-philosophical science fiction (psy-phi sci-fi) anabasis. His TEDxCornell talk shows how the realization that the brain is a virtual reality engine can help us make a case for humanist ethics.
