I had a brain damage back when i was 5 years old (20) today. but i will say it damages the memory and learning ability. Trust me i am here every day trying to figure out how to complete a simple task, and yet still have difficulties in completions. You can improvise yourself after a brain damage yes, that’s what keeps us alive for the most of us
@users4007 I agree to that when it comes to livelihood. I was referring to art as an activity after brain injury. I had brain injury and wasn't able to read for a time period, thus, I turned to art during that period.
Just an anecdote, I suffered a concussion riding my bike as I have recovered I have noticed a pick up in some cognitive abilities that I didn't have before. In particular seeing big picture connections between mathematics and philosophy. I am by no means a sevant, hit it is interesting.
I take a little issue with the collective unconscious theory, like much of early psychology it's not been supported by any evidence, the finches are explained much better by the same idea as convergent evolution; simple inputs, clever, complex and identical outputs
Carls Jungs theories of the collective unconscious containing hundreds of archetypal symbols that underpins our religions and culture has been scientifically vindicated by the Electric Universe group at Thunderbolts.info They do plasma research and many of the symbols have been duplicated in electric plasma labs. The other place the symbols occur is in ancient rocks and the ancients saw cataclysmic plasma displays in the sky that wiped out most human and animal life. So the ancients were right to record these scary happenings. It never occurred to Carl Jung that the sky in ancient times was vastly different to what we see today. Not his fault. So he was RIGHT after all. And this lovely documentary explains the origins of Jungs symbols that he catalogued visiting isolated cultures all over the world. They were all in the sky in ancient times. Symbols of an Alien Sky Official Movie th-cam.com/video/dlZL0IFscMM/w-d-xo.html
@@kimbo99 oh hey only saw this now because of the other comment, thanks tho the evidence isn't quite up to scientific rigor it's nice to know folks are still thinking about these old ideas sometimes they can help us find a new spin on the stuff we're working with today
@@geoffbrom7844 My take is modern science is quite wrong to dismiss Carl Jung Because his symbols have been identified in modern plasma labs. That's hard science. The same symbols are found in ancient rock pictures and carvings and most of our religious symbols. They were all seen in ancient skies. Our biggest mistake today is assuming our unchanging skies today have always been that way. In this beaut short video EV Cochrane explains how the Polar configuration (3 planets in a row with glowing electric field between them) , produced massive frightening sky displays that were recorded by astronomers in every culture (objective validation, scientific rigour) and was the origin of much ancient symbolism that we cant let go of, even today *Ev Cochrane: Polar Configuration - Venus Devastatrix | Thunderbolts* th-cam.com/video/hpJP8z0T7Uw/w-d-xo.html
I always respected this channel, considering it a good begginer source for things I don't have lot of knowledge about. But giving undue credit to Carl Jung pseudoscientific theories makes me doubt what other things you are letting slip.
It seems to me that this is less a video about what is known in psychology and more video about what is unknown. I will say I'm unhappy with the conclusion of this video that perhaps skills are always present but dormant but I am happy with the tone carried throughout that there is much we don't understand about how skills are developed. All of this being said I've yet to educate myself on Carl's views and frankly all of the sources provided.
So you don’t like Carl Jung and your emotions are so strong you’re willing to disbelieve anything else on this channel? Plz share why his work is invalid Carl Jung is all throughout the study of psychology and has helped many people.. seems pretty effective. I hope you’re not making assumptions based on emotion and calling it reasoning. Also Psychology is incomplete you shouldn’t be so sure you know everything.

Basically damage(maybe deficit) to an area of the brain will allow other brain areas to grow beyond normal. In theory, could this help explain why some people with Asperger's or dyslexia have amazing abilities in certain area(s)?
If that theory is true then imagine how many people have died without "unlocking" their ability, how many geniuses have been lost and how far we as humans could have progressed...its sad to think about.
As someone that was in two horrible accidents back to back that damaged my brain and took away my ability to go to school and learn how I used to.. this gives me a little glimmer of hope. :)

Sometimes while I'm falling asleep and drifting off I can hear music. Whole multi-instrument songs. I've always wanted to control this. Its beautiful to hear, wish I could play it all.
Its an attempt to communicate with you. How do you reply ? Musical communication is often how Gnosis starts. Go here www.truebluehealer.com/ 20 mins BEGINNERS TOUR All explained. Expect vivid messaging night dreams within a week Immediate physical evidence that something has changed Keywords typed into your mindseye Vivid messaging day dreams ( you might say visions) And lots more.

I'm pretty skeptical about the first guy. I can maybe imagine getting your neurons scrambled in just the right way might make it where you have a greater ability to understand music, but playing piano is about WAY more than your brain. It involves muscle memory which literally takes thousands of hours to develop. And it literally happens in the muscles and even the bones of your hands, so a knock on the head isn't going to affect that at all.
The instant muscle memory and dexterity required to play piano at a high level is what I can’t wrap my head around. Unless he actually had to practice for a little while to get a feel for it, then the savant nature just took over and rapidly increased his progress with the instrument
At 4 years old while in preschool, I was playing tag and tripped on a water hose, hitting my forehead on the corner of a metal sink (no fucking idea why there was a sink outside). Gash was a quarter sized, my dad told me that doctors had clear view of my brain. After that, as early as 7 years old I gained a crippling fear of mortality, and death. I constantly worried about the days where my parents would die, pets would die, and then I would wonder what comes after that? That young, I couldn’t rationalize any of it. Sometimes I think it was that fall that jolted my subconscious into worrying about death. Interesting video showing the positives of such events!
omg. This channel provides such mind-blowing information. I can't believe that some musical abilities are hidden in our DNAs... that's so mysterious. I know the history of my family quite well, and I have heard that all of my mom's relatives were inclined to learning languages. My Gran spoke English, German, and somehow Afrikaans freely, and my aunt's the biggest passion was Spanish. Does this mean that I may have these skills too, hidden somewhere in my brain, sleeping and waiting to be woken?.. woah.
This has got to be the only accurate characterization of Jung's idea of the collective unconscious on the internet. So used to hearing it described as some sort of shared psychic connection that whenever it comes up I'm like "oh no".
I believe everyone of us is a genius. All it takes is the ability and patients for you to be able to listen to your self and keep practicing certain thought patterns/rhythms in your brain. You just need to practice thinking and concentration/focus. Your brain is like a muscle, the more you exercise it the stronger it becomes. Your brain is also very elastic and stretchy and the more stretching it the more you can do with it the more intelligence you release. Don't ignore your thoughts or your weaknesses but you think you have, use them as an advantage and they will become your strengths. I really have no idea what I'm talking about, I can barely read or write.
Throughout history, different ancient people would practice Trepanning (drilling a hole in the skull). Maybe they did it to alleviate swelling. Maybe they did it as an attempt to unlock genius mode?
I learned to play music without proper training and I've always been drawn towards rhythm and mentally isolating instruments at will so I can enjoy that part alone. Brain it's an incredible mystery.
Aliens could have archived singularity in AI. Ist called that because it could be so incredibly intelligent that we can't even predict anything past that point. But nah a neurological system of an Ape is understandably more complex
Me and my siblings can draw extremely well, even though we barley practice. My younger brothers started drawing when he was like 6 or 7 and he could draw realstic portraits right away. I know people who practice art/drawing everyday and they aren't as good as me or my siblings. I hate it when people say that talent doesn't matter amd practice makes perfect. No, in some people, no matter how much they practice they can't become really skilled if they don't have an eye for details and can't see mistakes/asymmetries. This documentary proves that real artistic talent is heavily influenced by brain structure.
The guy learned to play arpeggios, is all I can tell. These are simple sounds everyone has heard. For some reason he became fixated on them. If that's all your music is, you could learn that in a day, no problem. He had the manual dexterity to pick it up faster than average, possible, but as long as you can hear pitch, this is not at all complicated, musically.
the ad at the end for brilliant struck a cord in me. when I was very young I fell out of a tree and head my head in multiple places on the way down, having hit my head on multiple branches, the wooden railing of the tree house, and the ground on the way down. I became a talented mathematician. up until 9th grade, where a teacher destroyed my mathematic capability by forcing me to explain how I got to the results. I couldn't explain how I got there, because I didn't know how. I instantly knew the answers to the variables and to the equation. In the bit about brilliant, there was a cryptogram. I struggled with variable math the last time I tried it. this time, I solved it in a less than a second. I instantly knew. B can only equal 5 because given the positioning of 1B + B6 = 71 this inherently means that the numbers in the equation must be 15 + 56 = 71. I thought I had completely lost this ability, thank you!
I very much enjoyed this documentary! I enjoyed as we learn more about our biology the more fascinating and intricate it is and how little we know about it. I cannot wait until the next video!
I'm curious how different musical systems such as that of Indonesia's Gamelan would fit into that universal musical experience idea. I'm currently in the process of reading _How Emotions are Made_ (by Lisa Feldman Barrett) and have started really questioning whether there's anything truly universal about our human experience.

I had a head injury and after waking up from a 2 month coma, I don't know why, but I was able to dribble basketballs at an athletic standard. I was also able to play the violin, cello, and bass guitar without any prior training, but the weirdest thing to come from it was my actual body strength improved to the point were I could flip a car on my own with no help whatsoever. The only "side effect" was that it also turned me into a compulsive liar.
Savant and genius are different concepts. One makes you exceptional at something like art, music, or math, etc. Genius is a more abstract term. Head trauma making someone smarter in general or developing sudden genius syndrome comes with trade offs. It's not necessarily what people imagine or fantasize about. There's a cost for everything. This takes me to Phineas Gage and his behavioral and personality changes.
That answer's how humanity learned to milk the cow, do agriculture and fishing. A whack on the head from a wife and man is suddenly motivated enough to do a dumber thing and get whacked again.
It sounds like things the brain processed and didn't consciously absorb. Like the subconscious is holding on to what it's processed of music and anatomy but not giving that back in the form of composing and artistry. If you've ever listened to a language a lot and felt like you SHOULD know what they're saying by now but you just can't grasp it, that's a good example of something your brain picked up but won't share. I have no idea why this happens but often people who get brain injuries and wake up fluent in a language they never learned are nearly always found to have had a lot of exposure to that language before their accident (be it listening to subtitled anime or learning german in high school and enjoying listening to the language). It's been shown before that the brain locks away things that the conscious mind can't handle, like memories or skills, so if we're taught that we need to learn things before we can do them, then why wouldn't the brain use that teaching to add a block in childhood to keep us from knowing things we feel like we haven't put enough work into yet?

It was certainly an interesting video, but since it was all speculative and hypothetical and NOT backed by any "real science", I question it being on this channel. I'm glad you looked at the topic, but perhaps you should have titled it: "hypothetical science on how brain damage can make you a genius".
We were produced as a slave race with a restraining bolt in our brain tissue to keep us dumb. An NDE or brain tissue injury breaks the restraining bolt, unleashing potentials we all have.

Oh great title. My brain damage is a grade 4 astrocytoma. Maybe he'll teach me something new. But so far I've been using him more for blaming my mistakes on him.
It must be the case information can be stored in the brain without us knowing just the fact that sometimes when you try to remember something you can't but then it all of a sudden it pops back into your mind.
In Indian culture there is a system to open up the genius within... Like ramanujan dont do maths, he sees maths. Where he given maths to black holes when there was no concept of black holes..
Well, I for some reason think that this theory of mine may be plausible: After a brain injury (which cause concussions) or a brain disease(which might kill or dissolve neuron pathways), the brain may regenerate NEW neuron paths that allow access to those skills😀😅

I think that when one part of the brain is damaged, the body tries to fix it. When it realises it can't, it increases blood flow in the other areas, making a patient talented for a single/multiple ablity(s).
You can use a hand to replace the needs of a foot, with stability, a consequence is a stronger arm
Sort of like that
Something's gotta compensate!
that's a misconception. while reduced bloodflow can make a brain area decrease its abilities, more bloodflow cannot make a brain area increase its abilities.
but neuroplasticity (meaning other parts of the brain compensating for the lost abilities of the damaged brain area) does happen a lot (although it takes time and training). so you were right of that phenomenom, but were wrong about the explanation.
still it does not make you a savant. when brain damage makes you a savant, it's because some specific areas of your brain are damaged, which would otherwise inhibit some special abilities, because before the damage, not having those special abilities makes you more adapted to daily life and survival
If this was the explanation then it should happen a LOT more. There must be more going on.
I had a brain damage back when i was 5 years old (20) today. but i will say it damages the memory and learning ability.

I take a little issue with the collective unconscious theory, like much of early psychology it's not been supported by any evidence, the finches are explained much better by the same idea as convergent evolution; simple inputs, clever, complex and identical outputs
Carls Jungs theories of the collective unconscious containing hundreds of archetypal symbols that underpins our religions and culture has been scientifically vindicated by the Electric Universe group at Thunderbolts.info They do plasma research and many of the symbols have been duplicated in electric plasma labs. The other place the symbols occur is in ancient rocks and the ancients saw cataclysmic plasma displays in the sky that wiped out most human and animal life. So the ancients were right to record these scary happenings. It never occurred to Carl Jung that the sky in ancient times was vastly different to what we see today. Not his fault. So he was RIGHT after all. And this lovely documentary explains the origins of Jungs symbols that he catalogued visiting isolated cultures all over the world. They were all in the sky in ancient times. Symbols of an Alien Sky Official Movie

@@kimbo99 oh hey only saw this now because of the other comment, thanks tho the evidence isn't quite up to scientific rigor it's nice to know folks are still thinking about these old ideas sometimes they can help us find a new spin on the stuff we're working with today
@@geoffbrom7844 My take is modern science is quite wrong to dismiss Carl Jung Because his symbols have been identified in modern plasma labs. That's hard science. The same symbols are found in ancient rock pictures and carvings and most of our religious symbols. They were all seen in ancient skies. Our biggest mistake today is assuming our unchanging skies today have always been that way. In this beaut short video EV Cochrane explains how the Polar configuration (3 planets in a row with glowing electric field between them) , produced massive frightening sky displays that were recorded by astronomers in every culture (objective validation, scientific rigour) and was the origin of much ancient symbolism that we cant let go of, even today

I always respected this channel, considering it a good begginer source for things I don't have lot of knowledge about. But giving undue credit to Carl Jung pseudoscientific theories makes me doubt what other things you are letting slip.
It seems to me that this is less a video about what is known in psychology and more video about what is unknown. I will say I'm unhappy with the conclusion of this video that perhaps skills are always present but dormant but I am happy with the tone carried throughout that there is much we don't understand about how skills are developed. All of this being said I've yet to educate myself on Carl's views and frankly all of the sources provided.
It's a video about a mysterious topic and showing the best theories they could find, how does that make them less credible?
This video makes no definitive radical statements. It presents radical ideas but also is quite skeptical about them.
So you don’t like Carl Jung and your emotions are so strong you’re willing to disbelieve anything else on this channel? Plz share why his work is invalid Carl Jung is all throughout the study of psychology and has helped many people.. seems pretty effective. I hope you’re not making assumptions based on emotion and calling it reasoning. Also Psychology is incomplete you shouldn’t be so sure you know everything.

Basically damage(maybe deficit) to an area of the brain will allow other brain areas to grow beyond normal. In theory, could this help explain why some people with Asperger's or dyslexia have amazing abilities in certain area(s)?
If that theory is true then imagine how many people have died without "unlocking" their ability, how many geniuses have been lost and how far we as humans could have progressed...its sad to think about.

I'm pretty skeptical about the first guy. I can maybe imagine getting your neurons scrambled in just the right way might make it where you have a greater ability to understand music, but playing piano is about WAY more than your brain. It involves muscle memory which literally takes thousands of hours to develop. And it literally happens in the muscles and even the bones of your hands, so a knock on the head isn't going to affect that at all.
The instant muscle memory and dexterity required to play piano at a high level is what I can’t wrap my head around. Unless he actually had to practice for a little while to get a feel for it, then the savant nature just took over and rapidly increased his progress with the instrument

At 4 years old while in preschool, I was playing tag and tripped on a water hose, hitting my forehead on the corner of a metal sink (no fucking idea why there was a sink outside). Gash was a quarter sized, my dad told me that doctors had clear view of my brain. After that, as early as 7 years old I gained a crippling fear of mortality, and death. I constantly worried about the days where my parents would die, pets would die, and then I would wonder what comes after that? That young, I couldn’t rationalize any of it. Sometimes I think it was that fall that jolted my subconscious into worrying about death. Interesting video showing the positives of such events!

This has got to be the only accurate characterization of Jung's idea of the collective unconscious on the internet. So used to hearing it described as some sort of shared psychic connection that whenever it comes up I'm like "oh no".
I believe everyone of us is a genius. All it takes is the ability and patients for you to be able to listen to your self and keep practicing certain thought patterns/rhythms in your brain. You just need to practice thinking and concentration/focus. Your brain is like a muscle, the more you exercise it the stronger it becomes. Your brain is also very elastic and stretchy and the more stretching it the more you can do with it the more intelligence you release. Don't ignore your thoughts or your weaknesses but you think you have, use them as an advantage and they will become your strengths. I really have no idea what I'm talking about, I can barely read or write.

Me and my siblings can draw extremely well, even though we barley practice. My younger brothers started drawing when he was like 6 or 7 and he could draw realstic portraits right away. I know people who practice art/drawing everyday and they aren't as good as me or my siblings. I hate it when people say that talent doesn't matter amd practice makes perfect. No, in some people, no matter how much they practice they can't become really skilled if they don't have an eye for details and can't see mistakes/asymmetries. This documentary proves that real artistic talent is heavily influenced by brain structure.

The guy learned to play arpeggios, is all I can tell. These are simple sounds everyone has heard. For some reason he became fixated on them. If that's all your music is, you could learn that in a day, no problem. He had the manual dexterity to pick it up faster than average, possible, but as long as you can hear pitch, this is not at all complicated, musically.
and the fact htat he is not bound to a sheet of paper also really helps with creativity.

the ad at the end for brilliant struck a cord in me. when I was very young I fell out of a tree and head my head in multiple places on the way down, having hit my head on multiple branches, the wooden railing of the tree house, and the ground on the way down. I became a talented mathematician. up until 9th grade, where a teacher destroyed my mathematic capability by forcing me to explain how I got to the results. I couldn't explain how I got there, because I didn't know how. I instantly knew the answers to the variables and to the equation. In the bit about brilliant, there was a cryptogram. I struggled with variable math the last time I tried it. this time, I solved it in a less than a second. I instantly knew. B can only equal 5 because given the positioning of 1B + B6 = 71 this inherently means that the numbers in the equation must be 15 + 56 = 71. I thought I had completely lost this ability, thank you!

I had a head injury and after waking up from a 2 month coma, I don't know why, but I was able to dribble basketballs at an athletic standard. I was also able to play the violin, cello, and bass guitar without any prior training, but the weirdest thing to come from it was my actual body strength improved to the point were I could flip a car on my own with no help whatsoever. The only "side effect" was that it also turned me into a compulsive liar.
The catch of this scheme is if you don't actually die.
Savant and genius are different concepts. One makes you exceptional at something like art, music, or math, etc. Genius is a more abstract term. Head trauma making someone smarter in general or developing sudden genius syndrome comes with trade offs. It's not necessarily what people imagine or fantasize about. There's a cost for everything. This takes me to Phineas Gage and his behavioral and personality changes.
That answer's how humanity learned to milk the cow, do agriculture and fishing.

It sounds like things the brain processed and didn't consciously absorb. Like the subconscious is holding on to what it's processed of music and anatomy but not giving that back in the form of composing and artistry. If you've ever listened to a language a lot and felt like you SHOULD know what they're saying by now but you just can't grasp it, that's a good example of something your brain picked up but won't share.
I have no idea why this happens but often people who get brain injuries and wake up fluent in a language they never learned are nearly always found to have had a lot of exposure to that language before their accident (be it listening to subtitled anime or learning german in high school and enjoying listening to the language).
It's been shown before that the brain locks away things that the conscious mind can't handle, like memories or skills, so if we're taught that we need to learn things before we can do them, then why wouldn't the brain use that teaching to add a block in childhood to keep us from knowing things we feel like we haven't put enough work into yet?
