What if... we could bring extinct animals back to life? | What If

Jurassic Park may have first put the idea of bringing dinosaurs back from the dead into people's heads, but the question of whether we can bring back more recently extinct species is still very much alive and kicking for scientists.

Aphantasia: The People Without a Mind's Eye | 'Out of Mind' | Wired UK

If you close your eyes and picture an apple, how clear is that apple in your mind? Most people can visualise images in their head instantaneously - this known as the mind's eye. But in 2015, a scientific study shed new light on the relatively unheard-of phenomenon known as aphantasia, a mental blindness where the brain is unable to call images to the mind eye. This short documentary uncovers the root cause of a person's emotional detachment from people and events - and the unexpected advantages that come with it. Alex Wheeler shares the story of how his experiences with aphantasia have affected his life, particularly his grieving process after losing his mum, as he seeks answers from Adam Zeman, Professor of Cognitive and Behavioural Neurology at the University of Exeter Medical School. WIRED also talks to artist and YouTuber Amy Right, better known as @AmyRightMeow, who shares their experiences with aphantasia and how it feeds their creative process.
