Grin Two-brained man

http://www.wimp.com/twobrained/

An interesting documentary about a man who underwent a surgery in which he had to have the connection between his left and right brain split in order to discontinue epileptic problems that he was having.

From the video he appears to be a functional individual, yet it is revealed that the functions and processing of the left and right brain differ in varying degrees.

The procedure and its consequences are indeed interesting and often referred to in the theory of the bicameral mind.

This
is an interesting related video.
