About the Session
What is memory, and how does it shape who we are?
This session takes us on a fascinating journey through biological, neurological, and digital dimensions of memory — from the human brain to quantum computers, and from scientific models to the performer’s art of remembering. With leading researchers from the Technion and the University of Haifa, we will explore how memories are formed, why they fade, and why certain sounds remain forever engraved in our minds.
