CREATIVITY NO LONGER LEFT-BRAIN, RIGHT-BRAIN
Creativity has long been associated with the left brain/right brain theory - that is, simply put, the left brain person is logical and analytic and the right brain person is passionate and creative.
Recent research, however, has turned that theory on its head. According to new findings in the neuroscience community, creativity is not isolated in just one sphere. Rather, it involves numerous regions of the brain - in a trio of networks:
- The Executive Attention Network - used for tasks requiring sharp focus
- The Imagination Network - just as it sounds - for "mental simulations" from experiences
- The Salience Network - for a flexible path between external and internal resources

COMMUNICATING USING ONLY THOUGHTS
Shhhh - no talking allowed. Use only your thoughts to communicate.
Wait...what? Thoughts only? Indeed, scientists have discovered a method of communication that uses thoughts only.
Researchers at Harvard have succeeded in establishing "brain-to-brain" communication between a human and a rat. In a recent experiment, using technology developed in the "hot" computer-brain field, which has created devices and interfaces that aid quadriplegics, scientists were able to get a sleeping rat to move its tail by using nothing but thoughts.
What might future experiments yield? Getting a rat to move its tail may not seem very practical at this point, but further research may actually lead to successfully establishing human-to-human contact via thoughts only. Imagine...
