You Don't Actually See the World — You See a Copy — Feynman

You Don't Actually See The World — You See a Copy | The Science of Perception | Feynman Explains Your brain doesn't show you reality — it builds a copy, delayed by 100ms, filtered by prediction, colored by experience. Here's the physics and neuroscience of why you've never seen the world directly. In this video we explore how human visual perception actually works — from light and Rayleigh scattering to the retinal blind spot, saccadic suppression, predictive processing, and the hard problem of consciousness. Featuring Richard Feynman avatar style — direct, curious, intellectually honest. Discover: why color doesn't exist in the physical world, how your brain fills in your blind spot without telling you, why optical illusions reveal the brain's prediction machinery, what Benjamin Libet's experiments say about your sense of "now," and why two people looking at the same scene genuinely see different things. If you've ever taken seeing for granted — this will change that permanently. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This video is AI-generated (synthetic voice and visuals).
