Israeli scientists discover that experience is an illusion - Time is the worst illusion of the lot. Merciless Time. | TechEye
A team of Israeli scientists has worked out that the human brains magical ability to slow time indicates that our present is an unreliable memory played nanoseconds too late .
Researcher David Eagleman worked out that when time seems to slow down in real life, our senses and cognition must somehow speed up. Either that, or time is an illusion and lunchtime doubly so.
Faced with lots of reports from people who claim that “time slowed down” Eagleman wondered if the experience of slow motion really happens or does it only seem to have happened in retrospect?
