The Science of How the Body and the Mind Guide Each Other Through Life


How You Move

by David Meyer

Neuroscientist Scott Grafton took to the wilderness to further understand the mostly unconscious, almost magical, coordination between body and brain.

Bedrosian Coyne Presidential Chair in Neuroscience at the University of California, Santa Barbara Scott Grafton directs the UCSB Brain Imaging Center. He details how the largely unconscious coordination of body and mind is a marvel of learning, feedback and instant adjustment. Grafton finds elegant, though sometimes overly technical, ways to make a complicated subject engaging and comprehensible.

Mental Mapping

As Grafton walks into the wilderness, his sense of awareness expands. The brain creates a mental map of “operational space” by combining sense perceptions and joint positions. This enables your interaction with the world. Artificial intelligence (AI) cannot duplicate this human ability.
