- While interviewing David Duchovny about his book, "The Reservoir," on "Real Time with Bill Maher," Bill Maher spontaneously claims to have a “bicameral mind.” Duchovny then asks if he has read Julian Jaynes’s "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind," and briefly explains Jaynes's theory.
Duchovny may have first read Julian Jaynes’s book while he was a student at Princeton University from 1978-1981. Jaynes's book had just been released the previous year, and Jaynes was teaching his popular “Psychology of Consciousness” course at Princeton during this time.

Thank you for your comment Guillermo, we agree!
You need to read more books
@@BobanOrlovic Insofar as understanding how it is that we are conscious
that book provides the most likely theory among the handful most encounter.
(Though having a basic knowledge of
how neurons, sense organs and muscles work
helps with understanding how the theory's concepts
may be physically accomplished).
I agree !
facts ive read the hard copy years ago and just downloaded the ebook about a few months ago... man. he could of explained it a bit more tho
David Duchovny, a fan of the book?! Looking at him in a whole new light there...
That was good, here is another insight I was thinking about, people generally start off in life in a maze, but if they mature enough emotionally or spitually, they earn there right to feel
as if they are on more of a ''path'' and less of a maze.
Duchovny was writing his dissertation on GRAVITY's RAINBOW when he got the gig for X FILES.
The silence after he explained..got some people thinking.
YES!
Wow He changed a Lot physically from when He was young
Dude looks way better than most.
the split mind experiment with writing
Duchovny never seems fully quite conscious
Why are people wooing and cheering after everything said? Is all US TV like this?
One side of a piece of meat, talking to the other side of the piece of meat… And people don’t believe in miracles?
We are all God who divided himself and are further divided between the left and the right. It is through uniting the left and the right and the re uniting of self that we reunite to God.
im convinced truth for bill mahr is a matter of how smugly you can state your prejudices.
Lol! Which half?
The side that holds our ''memory's'' according to the series WestWorld because the the character Bernard in episode 9 or 10 of series 1 states, that memory is the beginning of consciousness,(and I guess by extension, ''humanity'' for you can't learn, what you can't remember, ) he state's this to robot's who are on a journey of self consciousness, which I think are meant to be metaphor's for much of ''sleeping humanity''
For some reason this metaphor came to mind...
The tank commander, upon seeing the tiger emerge from the distant woods,
tells his driver, 'turn right twenty degrees' and
tells his loader, 'load armor piercing' and
tells his gunner, 'aim for the tiger. Fire when ready'.
