Left Brain, Right Brain — what. — Bo Burnham

While watching the Ted talk by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, I was reminded of a song by Bo Burnham. In this song, “Left Brain, Right Brain”, from Burnham’s comedy show “what.”, Burnham demonstrates the different functions and “personalities” of the different hemisphere of the brain. Using these neurological ideas and his personal experiences, he creates a comical song that personifies the different aspect of each half of the brain.
