Ondrem w o n d r i u m is a streaming service that brings mind-blowing moments into everyday life. With ondriam youn explore thousands of hours of fascinating video and audio content. You will find your thing, even if it's something you didn't know before. And now we take a break from our programme for a word from our sponsors.

In this episode we sit down with neuroscientist David Eagleman to learn how brains turn noise into signal, chaos into order, electrical spikes into meaning, and how new technology can expand subjective reality in ways never before possible.

In his new book, Livewired, Eagleman explores how brains come into the world "half baked" so they can create reality itself out of the inputs and experiences available. And now, thanks to that plug-and-play plasticity, with the latest tools, not only can we return senses to people who've lost them, but we can add to any brain senses we can't imagine.
