Press text;
"Blinking our eyes is a small disconnection of the brain, where we for tiny seconds mentally drift away. It happens so fast and regularly that we don?t really notice. Eyes closed for a longer period of time results in a longer disconnection, such as sleeping. But waking up from this unconscious state gives the possibility to remember what we have been disconnected from."
"Between the books" are looking into different aspects on psychology and developmental theories on memory. On this fine borderline we are entering a form of "magical reality" with both an intellectual and playful approach to the most common senses of them all, memory.
