3. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 3 A first look at the human brain. From the Van Essen Laboratory, University of Washington, St. Louis. Points to Notice: -- This is the right hemisphere, "looking right." -- close-up zoom -- can you name the major lobes? -- rotation to the medial (inside) view -- the hills and valleys are exaggerated -- the brain is "puffed up" mathematically -- the puffed-up hemisphere is then flattened mathematically. -- cortex is a sheet of cells! (Note: Click on the screen.)

4. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 4 Can you sketch the major points to notice? - A From the Van Essen Laboratory, University of Washington, St. Louis. Points to Notice: -- This is the right hemisphere, "looking right." -- close-up zoom -- can you name the major lobes? -- rotation to the medial (inside) view Rotation:

5. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 5 Can you sketch the major points? - B Points to Notice: -- the brain is "puffed up" mathematically -- the puffed-up hemisphere is then flattened mathematically. -- cortex is a sheet of cells! Puffed up: And flattened: (Notice the "dumbo the flying elephant" shape of the flat right hemisphere)

6. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 6 A first look at brain activity: Hearing a single word. From Pulvermueller, source. Points to Notice: -- This movie shows the left hemisphere, "looking left." -- It is a "puffed up" hemisphere, covered with a meshwork (like a fishing net), superimposed on the model of the brain. -- can you name the major lobes? (approximately) -- brain activity is shown in light colors on the blue background --- yellow and red colors indicates higher activity -- the movies starts when the subject hears a single spoken word -- brain activity is measured by MEG, and begins near the speech perception region of the left hemisphere (see Chapter 1) -- notice how quickly it spreads to other areas! (Note: Click on the screen.)

7. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 7 Can you sketch the major points to notice? - A Source: Pulvermueller, ref Points to Notice: -- This movie shows the left hemisphere, "looking left." -- It is a "puffed up" hemisphere, covered with a meshwork (like a fishing net), superimposed on the model of the brain. -- can you name the major lobes? (approximately) -- brain activity is shown in light colors on the blue background --- yellow and red color indicate higher activity

8. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 8 Can you sketch the major points to notice? - B Source: Pulvermueller, ref Points to Notice: -- brain activity is shown in light colors on the blue background --- yellow and red color indicate higher activity -- where is the first "high activity" showing up after the subject hears a single spoken word? -- why does that make sense from Chapter 1?

9. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 9 Can you sketch the major points to notice? - C Source: Pulvermueller, ref Points to Notice: -- brain activity is shown in light colors on the blue background --- yellow and red color indicate higher activity -- where is the first "high activity" showing up after the subject hears a single spoken word? -- why does that make sense from Chapter 1? -- where does the second "hot spot" show up? What lobe is it? -- notice the light blue activity in other regions of the left brain… can you name their lobes?

10. To accompany Baars & Gage - Chapter 1 10 Can you sketch the major points to notice? - D Source: Pulvermueller, ref Points to Notice: -- -- brain activity is measured by MEG, and begins near the speech perception region of the left hemisphere (see Chapter 1) -- notice how quickly it spreads to other areas! -- can you speculate why brain activity might spread to the places it does? (It's not necessarily known…) -- and then the neural activity fades…
