I was going to say, that theory sounds an awful lot like Stephenson's stuff about neurolinguistic programming.
Another fictional investigation of bicameral minds are two novels in the Firefall series by Peter Watts.
That novel looks amazing, and it's going on my reading list. Thanks!
Check also Peter Watts Firefall series.
I read blindsight in one sitting. Good stuff.
This only fiction I have read twice and made notes.
