Can we trust our senses? Why do we fail to remember everything we read? Is it possible to pay attention to everything around us? These “paradoxes” of our cognitive processes along with illusions, prove that what we get from the environment through our senses, might differ from reality, due to our brain’s processing and correcting mechanisms. Cognitive scientists often use these phenomena in order to investigate how the mind functions and processes information. Participants, will be offered the opportunity to experience phenomena of visual and multi-sensory perception, as well as memory, attention and speech production, through an interactive exhibition.
