Jeff Tweedy (Wilco): Less Than You Think (Consciousness/Psychology with Shimon Edelman)

Less Than You Think: Demystifying the Hard Problem of Consciousness with Computational Psychology.

Jeff Tweedy talks about the lyrics to “Less Than You Think” from Wilco’s 2004 Grammy Winning Album, A Ghost is Born. We discuss creativity vis a vis his book “How To Write One Song”, spirituality with a capital S, atheism, 9/11 and everything in between. Cornell University computational psychologist, Dr. Shimon Edelman weighs in on the lyrics with his theory of consciousness: that human consciousness is entirely the product of a virtual reality simulation created by our brains.
