That CGP Grey brain-split video is very evocative of the Time-Life book on The Mind that shaped so much of my childhood (spreads on optical illusions, LSD self portraits, all kinds of oddness).

I loved that one book enough to eventually buy a copy, which I still have.
The Kurzgesacht crossfade at the end is brilliant, though. And vice versa.
This reminds me of one time I freaked Nick Harkaway out by arguing against the existence of a unitary self. I think that might have started with this brain hemisphere stuff, but got into the idea that brains are electric and have a Hertz. So they're sort of flickering, too, if you slow down your frame of reference. On and off.
