Brain Games Season 1 Episodes
Season 1 Episode Guide
Episode 1 - Watch This!Hack into the ultimate supercomputer - the human brain - as Hollywood filmmakers use color, light, motion, depth and sound to create mind-bending sensory illusions. Is it possible to feel the sensation of accidentally cutting your finger just by watching TV? Much of what we experience may be a mere fabrication, as our brains fill in gaps and stitch together a complete picture of the world bit-by-bit, designed to overcome our eyes' blind spots. But what happens when your senses get crossed?

Episode 2 - Pay Attention!When it comes to mastering - and manipulating - attention, some of the world's leading experts aren't scientists; they're magicians like David Copperfield. While the brain's attention acts a bit like a spotlight to filter and make sense of a busy world, it can be easily controlled and deceived. Copperfield and a team of experts test, trick, and fool using an elegant form of attention control.

Episode 3 - Remember This!With memory, things are not always as they seem: Details go missing, recollections change, and sometimes our brains fill in the blanks and create false visual memories. Our experts are on a mission to find out where memories reside in the brain by examining every millimeter for clues. Brain Games investigates every piece of the memory puzzle, from how we recognize faces - even if they have been digitally distorted - to how we can move memories from short-term to long-term storage.
