the default network consists of regions that, in the absence of exteroceptive [externally oriented] attention or narrowly focused mental effort, support self-directed concerns, immersion in one’s inner life (e.g., daydreaming) or imagining the inner life of others (Theory of Mind)
Joseph Carroll • Imagination, the Brain’s Default Mode Network, and Imaginative Verbal Artifacts
Scientists have demonstrated that, as the years go by, much of what we think we remember is false. It seems our brains can't store every detail we experience, so we recall the gist of events — enough to create a story that makes sense to us. Every time we recall a story or tell it to others, we change small bits depending on whether our audience... See more
We change our memories each time we recall them, but that doesn’t mean we’re lying
Creativity and Disruption: Creativity is described as emerging from the disruption of these predictive models. When our expectations are challenged or disrupted, it can lead to new ways of thinking and innovative ideas.
Balance Between Order and Chaos: The balance between order (predictive models) and chaos (disruption) is crucial for fostering creativity. Too much order can stifle creativity, while too much chaos can lead to confusion and lack of direction.
Their finding is part of wider realization in the neuroscience community, that our brain does not simply react to what comes in through our senses. Instead, we have a predictive brain, that permanently predicts what comes next. The expected sensory input is then suppressed. We see the world from the inside out, rather than from the outside in.
