This video explores how our senses, like sight and touch, work together to create our understanding of the world. It delves into a classic thought experiment called the Molyneux problem, where we explore how sight and touch might not be as independent as we think. Through an engaging experiment, we'll uncover the surprising ways our senses collaborate to build our perception.
