Listening to his recording of the subthalamic nucleus—as he describes it, "the sound of hundreds of thousands of your own neurons excitedly relaying the information they carry to one another fill[ing] the room"—was worth the read alone.

Highly recommend reading this post.

To the author: thank you for sharing, and I wish you a successful course of treatment.

Yeah that was super interesting and when I listened to the recording the first thing I thought of was the high frequency (well, relatively speaking of course) clicking sounds dolphins and some other cetaceans make. Always wondered if there was a connection there when brain information is translated “in the raw”.
Very beautiful these connections we can make, imagine if dolphins can think as one… click click click.
