Alternative descriptions of the same reality evoke different emotions and different associations.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The same stimuli in the world can be inducing very different experiences internally and it's probably based on a single change in a gene. What I am doing is pulling the gene forward and imaging and doing behavioural tests to understand what that difference is and how reality can be constructed so differently.
When you get to experience something that is outside of your reality, it changes you.
I've always been interested in this notion of what is authentic and how we define that and why our culture imposes certain emotions and emotional constraints onto experiences.
I really think the human experience is very similar for everyone; we're all doing slightly different versions of the same thing.
We don't believe other people's experiences can tell us all that much about our own. I think this is an illusion of uniqueness.
Basic emotions can be conveyed through anything. As long as you show people that you're human, they'll relate to it.
Reality simply consists of different points of view.
Our emotions are constantly being propelled by some new face in the sky, some new rocket to the moon, some new sound in the ear, but they are the same emotions.
Emotion creates reality, reality demands action.
Nothing replaces being in the same room, face-to-face, breathing the same air and reading and feeling each other's micro-expressions.
