I'm curious. How do they quantify the amount of sensory information our brain receives vs. the amount that we consciously perceive?

- pygy_ 14y agoThe input bandwidth can be estimated by the amount of afferent nerve fibers, and the neuronal firing rate. For an example of the estimation of the conscious bandwidth while listening to music, see the second edit of this comment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4829147 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4829147
