Memories: A False Witness?
from The Information Entropy Podcast · host Dr. Tom Jenks and Mitchell Gatting
Welcome back to The Information Entropy Podcast! This week we are exploring our past through the form of memories… what are memories in the first place and how do they biologically function? Are they as accurate as you think or is your episodic memory filled with false reconstructions? How it possible for two people observing the same event to have two dramatically different recollections? Why is nostalgia such a positive feeling: Is it just rose tinted glasses or a longing for times gone by? Join Mitch and Tom as they break it down for you.
