Limbo, the Organized Mind

A psychedelic film about the human brain by Jim Henson, presented by Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show. This 1974 clip demonstrates Henson’s more creative and experimental side, delving into the ideas of an organized cortex and the chaos of filing all that information in our neural network.

It’s a little odd, and a little amazing. Also, things like this used to be on television.
