Coscienza, l’origine è nella geometria del cervello?

139.000 neuroni e una mappa curva: arriva uno studio che cambia l'origine della nostra coscienza nel cervello.

Gianluca Riccio

A hyper-detailed scientific visualization of a fruit fly's neural connectome rendered in hyperbolic curved space, where thousands of glowing interconnected neurons form an elegant fan-shaped or saddle-like geometric structure rather than a flat map. At the center, bright hub neurons pulse with light, acting as traffic nodes, while specialized neurons radiate outward toward the curved edges in clusters of warm amber and electric blue. The overall structure resembles a luminous mathematical manifold — somewhere between a coral reef and a cosmic web — floating against a deep black background. In the far background, a soft blurred suggestion of a human brain silhouette hints at a larger scale. The aesthetic is cinematic scientific illustration, ultra-detailed, with volumetric light rays tracing signal pathways through the curved geometry, evoking both the intimacy of a single insect mind and the profound mystery of consciousness itself.
