Hey i know some of you out there must be familiar with the work of John Lilly. What are youre opinions on his theorys of whales and dolfins being on the same level or of higher intelligence than humans. If i remember correctly he stated that for another brain to model the human brain it would have to be larger than the human brain it wished to model. It would take a certain amount of the brain to actually match the processing of the human brain, and then have extra brain mass left over to run the whole modeling process or something like that.. and that whales and some dolphins have this capacity.
Its been a while since ive looked into his work, but was drawn to it because my fathers cousin actually works with dolphins in califoria, shes been on TV a few times talking about interspecies communication, and was involved in some project years back training the dolphins to put some sort of device onto wild sharks out in the ocean for study. Interesting stuff
Ive always been into biology and used to volunteer at the vancouver aquarium about 10 years ago until i came to realize that animals deserve rights as well... anyhow I once spent the night there in the killer wale viewing area, and found my self just mesmerized by these amazing and beautiful beings, so gracious and when they sing it sounds like angels, so sad they're forced to live out their lives in prisons... Im going to try to find some links to this and when I do I will post them
