I’ve been slowly making my way through Charles Fernyhough’s book, Pieces of Light, which is about the science of memory. Memories are told like stories, to others and oneself as we travel back in time through our neural time machines. Memories allow us to be two people at once, who we are now, and the person we were then, and both individuals have a say in the memory. Our memories allow us to see time as memories merge into memories, but they are also powerful statements about who we are, and who we believe we can be. Where will your memories take you in 2014?
