Well done chaps. Wonderful stuff. I'm a simple artist and have been thinking similar thoughts all my life. Discussing them with my scientific friends has always been problematic, as it's usually stuck in the woo woo category. Although I am not from a scientific background myself (son of a signal man), I approach the artistic endeavour through first principles and my work is very much informed by the mysteries that science examines. I particularly want to thank Mr Sheldrake for his encouragement. My life would have been a lot more problematic and unfulfilled, if it were not for the bravery and joy he has shown, when experimentally approaching the wonder of life. Thank you.

I like the idea that memory is retrodiction it is a 'prediction of the past'. And this is why we remember everything slightly differently, because we are remodeling the event. Trying to predict what happened.
The guy goes onto say how we are constantly trying to predict every moment by modeling it. This is why being in an unfamiliar place or space has us feeling anxiety, because we havnt modeled it to a level where can comfortably predict what might happen. And why we feel comfortable after we have explored it sufficiently

What a great conversation. I was only discussing this very idea of how the brain couldn't possibly store all of our memories just last week with my mother. I have forwarded this to her, I think she will find it most interesting. I have also recently become aware of thoughts appearing in frozen water and of holograms in the blood. Of course to the closed minded (most of the poplace) this all sounds preposterous. Indeed it would have sounded preposterous to mysefl not that long ago, but these last 4 or 5 years have led to a real awakening within me and I'm far happier for it. Thank you Rupert. I read Merlin's book recently too and found that facinating.

In a way all those scientist who searched for the trace memory and didn't find it, paved the path for us to consider alternative options. Their failure in our "memory" enables the next step to be taken easier.
Thank you for such a fascinating conversation! I feel a sense of wonder and excitement after watching.

When I worked as a software engineer, it was my job to make the impossible possible. I was a savant at looking at things differently, consistently from "outside the box", so to develop a solution for the problem, making it possible. The interesting thing about this was that after it was known that I had provided a solution, other engineers who could not solve the problem could suddenly solve it, not by seeing how I came to my solution, but by simply knowing that this presumed impossible thing was actually possible.
