Intractable brains: evolution in progress | Gianluca Nicoletti | TEDxLakeComo


[Music]

it is not true that I worry about it

I actually like watching it

what i’m thinking right now that

my two dimensions space and time

the temporal dimension has limits

it’s limited by the countdown that’s on me

marking the time I have available

instead of looking for this the i

my feet and the limit of mine

spatial dimension I can not

go beyond the limit of this circle

red because I would get out of the fire

of the cameras and then I would lose

a unique opportunity to leave a

epic moment of my existence that

surely it will survive me then in

these fifteen minutes

I am leaving something to humanity

I’m realizing my individual ethics

in a privileged place without high

no doubt for a personal story

for a profession for a series of

of infamy fortunately I hit

started to be a journalist with one

fake recommendation in the uncle

archbishop whom I have never had but was

the only way you had to be able to

try to aspire to cross the borders

of the public company where that was

driving horse

said this I would like to debunk first

what is a commonplace that

we live in the age of communication

no it’s not true at all it’s not the figure

fundamental to the age in which we live

what we communicate we are not

by communicating, in reality, we are there

simply by training in what

it is an unaware phase of ours

evolution

I try to be clearer than we are anymore

unless my data are completely

inaccurate but I’m a journalist

because I love imprecision I am doing it

scientist we have more or less

20 million began to walk erected

of years ago

then we employed others from 15 to 17

millions of years to become men a

all the effects and what was the

sign of our evolution because of it

they have been a privileged species

because we are here talking inside

an amphitheater we have complex thoughts

for a trivial episode that has us

popped thumb the opposable beginning

our evolution this thumb that

can do so can snap fingers

can live in a bolt can

turn my hand into users and

so change the world around me

a simple evolution of the thumb

opposable makes us what we are

so we started to transform

the world having the opposable thumb

we changed the world

we really became architects

of the universe as the Masons say but

we are in effect because not

we have been content to change the

physical world we also started to

build a fantastic world

metaphysical beautiful and also in this

we have been very good we have

always imagined as we have

started to build machines

we started to build some

cars changed the world the wheel

the lever and then going on up

get that I know life without end to

card all the tools have there

we are invented that gradually have

built the technology we have changed

we have not changed our world

only our world but also the

our world of ideas we have

started building us

fantastic architectures to give

possibility to view or to

support what our people were

internal states that we have begun

acquire a sensitivity and therefore

we are built of the universes of the

cosmogonies we began to think

the gods began to build

of the idols of errors that resemble us

with them were our metaphors

idols that talked so they gave it to us

the possibility of seeing presented

hallucinated what we thought of

being this is always part of ours

evolutionary path we at this moment

but we are doing maybe

unconscious in about twenty

of years an evolutionary saint just as much

powerful for us as it was what

in 17 million years has given us the

opposable thumb is to have

started thinking about the idea that we

we could have emotional hypotheses

that somehow went further

what every limit in our senses

he has a little smile when someone has

said how we started it

turn off cell phone as it reveals how

turn off what we have to

layout today to observe in time

real our evolution

we are looking for the same way in

which we began to change the

world to change ours too

sensitivity to change ours

perception of other human beings

of our temporal space dimension

just through this object that

each of you has the fact that mine

they have one in their pockets mean

now it is an indispensable prosthesis e

only for a mere archaism yet

month after month we see the new model

of smartphone we stop respect

what hardware is what it is

the outside of this reality object

our evolution is its essence

it will be complete at this stage when we

we will have incorporated this possibility

further to have larger spaces

compared to the limited ones of ours

senses like this red circle like

that countdown that scores 9

minutes and 18 seconds at the end

this means that we must see

observe be aware that the

world we are living a world that

is recording our change

because we are changing like us

we changed with the opposable thumb

we started to change ours

world we are changing with this

our perception that we have anyway

a new way to manage the

sociality means sociality

experience

our mute brain changes with the

relationship with others

once a friend of mine is a scientist

He told me I’ll change something

a hand touches me

with your nails 5 tool your synapses

they are composed a certain way then

all changed the brain you have a

physical change only for one

caress

let’s show how much we change and how much

we are changing from stress that does not

we were used to managing to have not

I know 20 30 thousand contacts in a social network

network to have the database organized

of all our relationships do not have

plus a hierarchy of relationships if not

an alphabetical order and relationships that we

We manage for this fantastic this

will change the world

this will change the world to wait for us

we will succeed in incorporating this faculty

and how these glasses are actually

a prosthesis without glasses I begin to

see blurred from the first row onwards

so I have a prosthesis to sharpen that

my sense of sight does not me

the view would be enough to manage 900

people but when a man has ever been placed

the problem of looking in the face 900

people

I have no physical possibilities related to

my fans to my senses to manage 50

thousand contacts that maybe I have in mine

social network so I need one

I prosthesis this prosthesis at the end me

the fact is beginning to weigh

object that keep it out of mine

body work inside what was the

fantastic anticipation of some

body art performance in the 70s

like stelarc that we ate small ones

mechanisms saying the human body is

full of empty areas

we need to redesign the human body but

we are redesigning the human body

we are giving body to a new one

dynasty of human beings also changing

the physical features of our dimensions

bodily our expression changed

second disappointment we did

of the environment we were walking so much

of long and tapered legs and we are

very seated we become sedentary there

he sees the gastritis artificially we have

understood that it can be changed but

never mind

there is no longer the taboo we say

the incorporation of foreign objects

the technology that enters our body

but what’s wrong is a knee

for a few years now you will put one

prosthesis is a vanadium thing

here, whoever cares, risks me

burst the heart and put a bit of

valves we are used but are used to

not just the vanguard of ours

thought

Everyone is used to an elderly person

He knows it ‘s a heart problem

they put valve bypasses in it

it continues to live so it is already

exceeded the taboo

there is no longer a difference between

inorganic organic rather than the inorganic

quietly enters to be part of the

our body of our experience

they are also other mutations though

mutations that actually take place

just for social uses

another important mutation that

we had is the loss of the bakool

um

the baku lum is the stop is nico that one

time is important because we had

polygamous there were many women who served

a tool always always

arrangement

then they are monogamous oriented we have

changed our habits and I think

that a million and a half years ago

we lost the baku lum they keep it

some primates man no longer has it

therefore a social use has changed the

our body and why it should not

change our body and use

social as that of having ours

possibility to relate enlarged

this has always been passionate, let’s say i

my last years of attention for many

years watched television mine

task was just like the person me

He knows he introduced me to do the

Internal massmediologist always is always

looked hateful

also because I had the impression of

observe a transient reality that does not

it was possible to encode it in a system

scientific communication us

we change continuously you can not say

what is communication when it was born

for the faculties of science

video communication but science of that

these studied the solons

they explained what television is tended to

today it no longer exists

when I watched him for about ten years

he already said I was a medium

but because it is a medium it is a medium

in the primary meaning of this

term is a summoner of reality

ghostly weight is not important there

it shows nothing has not made us evolve

it is not the object that will change it

our life

let me say that the vestals that

every day they tore their hair

chronicle how the world changes

the bad television of the good

television does not exist past stuff is

a medium never served for a certain

period to show us a reality of

beyond the grave in which we all aspired to

entering was the trainer at the

conception of the perception of the prosthesis

emotional

the other television did not then

in the end that observe humanity and not

invent nothing more

television is no longer assimilable

to a reality like poetry la

narrative n’opera news days

generalist I speak the tradition of the

telefilm is another thing is one

transposition of the theater to the theater a

home the day telephones did nothing else

observe reality and start to

prove that people who the

they watch it become inside his

show very well all this I have

made an important part of mine

life, therefore, I observed communication

I watched the media say

but we have these emotional prostheses

incorporated within us that beautiful

we will communicate so much I want to study and

understand imagine wanted to be ahead

compared to others understand it would be

success the next day then can

suddenly in my life happened

that an autistic child was born to me

at least I had the perception that

he had an autistic son, a being

human has a communication problem

the total lack of communication or the

radical incommunicability cadio will do

that point I had them two streets a la

road is the one that most

of families who have a boyfriend

autistic make in Italy are so many

because statistically one is born now

autistic every 100 children then

something is changing anyway

started looking at the world seen one

person who did not communicate I understood

something fundamental in reality us

we are evolving and people who do not

communicates are nothing more than

the anticipation of our future phase

evolution and strangely on these

people created a kind of war

of religion

today autism from black diversity is al

center of a kind of new movement

of revolt

what do you do to our children get them vaccinated

you make them all autistic god

my what will happen will not communicate

the more you take away this faculty

fantastic that we can all

express an opinion

we have a smartphone and in the social network

network even if we are radically

of functional illiterates we can

say what we want then fear

is that what is considered the

new frontier of obtuse power e

absolute that science with modest

thing that made us evolve yes

that you are here in good health

that there are lights that I can

talk that I will leave this slice of the

my life in a place where it will be able to

keep talking to whites there

I’ll be more

and became the big scarecrow is

the object the story that are their own

children make our children die

but look, there has always been one

fear towards those who ate i

children the first and prejudice towards the

Jews that they killed children for

drink the blood of their rituals I have

started to study not

communication began to explain to

these people who are not there are

of the external causes of the bad guys who

poison your children poison

you with the vaccines with an infinity of

other things

no our children are like that because we

we are so we already have it inside

our genetic heritage to do

this shows this what i did i have

the past two months my life to make you

diagnose the percentage I have of

autism and or a strong percentage of

autism that manages to manage are

autistic strongly autistic then in

I already see the possibility of this

new evolution which will be the new one

society the autism society does not

they will be people who will communicate

will have a different communication more

selective will abandon some waste

that in this moment limit to ours

existence to the emotionality the

passionality the family all these

what’s this

of course there is a side in this enough

negative precisely with regard to the

delimitation of one’s own time to

survival

my real anguish and that will have a

son who will survive me and this

It seems paradoxical but I do not sleep there

night

and absolutely against nature to have

fear of a child to survive

because I was looking for a child with a

brain of towards a society that gives

as a value only the brain

approved and then what I will succeed

to do in this time frame from

when I will come out of this circle that

delimit space and when it will arrive 0

the timer that thing of my time and

try as much as possible to launch

my pride for different brains

It will be a coming out

I have a different brain I’m crazy and

so what is the new society will be

made of crazy as well knows a choice

different much lighter than less tied

to the traditions to the conventions to

fears to superstitions will be more

efficient
