How Three Brain Processes Shape Your Imagination

swift Summary

• Human inventiveness does not originate from a single “imagination cortex” in the brain; rather, it involves inputs from multiple regions of the brain and body.
• Neuroscientific advances, notably functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), have identified three key networks contributing to imagination.
• The default mode network (DMN), discovered in the 1990s, activates during internally focused states such as self-reflection, memory recall, or mood processing.
• Networks communicate wiht one another and switch modes for different mental tasks.
