The anthill closed the week with a new international perspective, that of American writer Dan Brownwho triumphs internationally with his new novel, The last secret.
It is about the new adventure of Professor Robert Langdon, who travels to Prague to attend a groundbreaking lecture given by Katherine Solomon, a brilliant noetic scientist with whom he has begun a relationship.
“You’re talking about noetics, what is that?”Pablo Motos asked him. The writer replied that “that’s a good question, it comes from the Greek word noetikoswhich means consciousness or perception.
“It is the science that studies the brain’s ability to control the physical world.that is, mind over matter. When I started writing this book, it seemed completely impossible, but now, after years and years, it seems even more true,” he added.
The Valencian also wanted to know which scientific fact had been the most difficult for him to believe: “There are many things in science that have been incredible to me”Brown noted.
“When I started writing, I was skeptical.but I have changed as I learn more about science. The more we learn about human consciousness, the more we realize how little we know,” the guest said.
Who noted: “The experience of precognition, that is to say psychic ability or the ability to know future events before they occur, allowing temporal anticipation to potentially change or react to these events. »
The host of the Antena 3 show also told his guest: “If it were discovered: How long do you think it would take to weaponize mind-reading technology?“.
“one minute. Human beings have never created a technology that did not ultimately become a weapon. “All technologies allow us to move forward as a species, we just have to hope that ethics comes with it, we have to ensure that our morals are solid,” he concluded.
