Abstract
Description
Includes descriptive metadata provided by producer in MP3 file: "We are bombarded with visual stimuli while driving, shopping and watching television. New research published in the Feb. 5, 2004, issue of Neuron reports that although we may not be aware of all that we see, our brains are registering this information." (Note: Description is somewhat misleading. Rene Marois, of the Vanderbilt Vision Research Center, talks about the "attentional blink," a "blink of the mind" that sometimes occurs when a rapid succession of visual images is received.)
