They say things like, “This part of the brain represents faces,” or “That spike means the person saw a dog.”But it’s not clear what “means” really means in this context.What is meaning? And where does it really come from? This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit suzitravis.substack.com
