I am fascinated by our imagination and how our external world can influence it.  According to neurologist, V.S. Ramachandran, a human being has the remarkable ability to take their surroundings, pull them apart, and turn them into abstractions. The ability to visualize a red striped canary although none exists is unique to humans. He identifies colors, adjectives, and objects such as red, stripes, and canaries as “disembodied tokens”. These tokens can then be manipulated to create new scenarios called the imagination.  If you're fascinated too, listen starting at 29:28 min. http://www.radiolab.org/story/91496-who-am-i/
