Brain Research



Unfortunately the brain is a lot more complex than the diagram above. I made a summery of the main parts of the brain regarding movement, sound, visual and thought (mainly the lobes). Some how will have to visually represent these on screen.

Frontal lobes - planning and thinking. Monitoring higher order thinking, directing problem solving and regulating the excesses of the emotional system. Self will area, personality. Most of our memory.

Temporal lobes - above the ears. Deals with sound, music, face and object recognition and some parts of long term memory. Also house the speech centres although this is usually on the left side only.

Occipital lobes - exclusively for visual processing.

Parietal lobes - spatial orientation , calculation and certain types of recognition.

Cortex - controls body movement, works with cerebellum
