The Ultimate Battle of One with Oneself

Status: No clue.

We're in a constant battle with ourselves every day due to the very nature of our body's half-independent design. One hand does not necessarily know what the other one does. We have two brain halves, and each of the brain halves receives and sends the signals independently. A man can survive with only one brain half. The right side: visual, artistic, random processing. The left side: lingual, logical, sequential processing.


The ecological human interface design of our heads up display may need to be designed to send appropriate data to the appropriate brain side. So, the left eye data may have to include artistic and visual info (to be extracted by right brain), while the right eye data will only carry data for logical info extraction.

The center processor then simply takes these two inputs and puts two and two together and makes decisions, which are sent from the main processor to each of the half to execute via muscle movements and physical actions.

From personal experience, the sequence of the development of my old 4WD robot project (see the projects page) followed a specific path. It was a logical path that took into account many visual and artistic approaches, which produced a clear picture of what the end product will be like from multiple perspectives. This enables us to make the best possible decision based on the experience acquired by each of the half of the brain. This is why it's pretty much useless providing artistic information to the left brain, if one wants to look for artistic approaches to the data observed by the right eye. Sending the same image data to the left eye, however, will produce the desired artistic/random calculations.

Every decision is made keeping in mind that Logic and Emotion account for Rational and Irrational decisions we make every day. You can say that one is in a constant battle with oneself. Split personalities often form in certain situations.

The important outcome of this finding is that efficiency can be improved dramatically if one is to properly use their brain halves. However, this is not the only reason why rational decisions often lead to predictable outcomes. The reason is that somewhere in the front section of my brain there's a section that is responsible for future prediction and extrapolation. Both front halves probably have this function, which look at my potential future from a logical and an emotional perspective. And this right-left brain battle is precisely the root cause of why it is often hard for us to make decisions.
