It is based on an interview with Patricia Churchland (neurophilosopher at University of California at San Diego, Salk Institute), Erich Harth's (researcher in physics of perception at Syracuse University) "The Creative Loop," Roger Penrose’s (Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at University of Oxford) "Shadows of the Mind," and other snipets dealing with the topics.
