a picture of the brain's right hemisphere during tests that Dr. Phillip Zeman conductedMy friend Dr. Phillip Zeman has been conducting some pretty amazing research over the past 7 years tracking how the brain functions during 3d video games. Seems kind of useless if you think of it in that way (at least to a layman) but then consider that he is taking it to the next step by then seeing how pharmaceuticals effect spatial interpretation. Very cool stuff.

Here is a video from a recent news interview with Phil:

    Useless? My friend Ross Dunn is so harsh. I suppose ‘tracking how the brain functions during 3D video games’ isn’t particularly useful to him–right now. However, wait until the day when he loses his ability to play 3D games…. Then we’ll have to hook him up to do a 25-point inspection. Thanks for the mention buddy!

    LOL, I didn’t mean it to come out harsh my friend. Just wanted to make it a little more intriguing (perhaps) for some readers (assuming I have any ;-)
