Episodes

1. La vista
The eye is a perfect machine, the result of millions of years of evolution. But also a mechanism that can be deceived, as with optical illusions, or defective, as in color blindness. Increasingly refined visual machines are capable not only of seeing, but also of interpreting images and recognizing human faces and gestures.

2. Il sonno
What are the sleep phases and how do they work? What does it mean to sleepwalk? How does a sleeping pill work? How to improve the quality of our rest? Sleeping is a biological need. Sleep is not just a period of inactivity, it is a time when fundamental things happen in the brain. This is why when we sleep poorly we function less well.

3. La memoria
Memory is the basis of learning, but it is also a still mysterious universe. How big is human memory? And what means do we have to increase our ability to remember? The ability that the brain has to simulate the future thanks to memory and how much we can trust what we seem to remember.
