A companion to the first in the world book on the neurological phenomenon of Ideasthesia, this compilation of essays invites the reader into the ideasthetic mind, as it explores creativity and philosophy of art in the fields of literature, film, music, design, teaching, design, and even science.
How to unleash one's creativity? How does one overcome the Creator's Block? How can science be seen as art? What is the math inside of story structure? Unexpected answers to these questions and much more is awaiting your curious mind.
ABOUT IDEASTHESIAIdeasthesia is a rare neurological phenomenon that augments human thinking, by allowing the brain to map its cognitive processes in the five human senses, where abstract ideas are experienced as physical objects, acting according to physical laws. This little studied human ability can potentially help science tackle the most perplexing and urgent of questions, including organization of the human brain itself.
ABOUT THE AUTHORVera Dragilyova is a Synesthete and an Ideasthete. She studied Cognitive Science at UC Berkeley and Information Design at Bentley University. She is a lifelong researcher, filmmaker, singer, polyglot, and a world traveler.
