Berger, Hans
(redirected from Berger)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.09 sec.

Berger, Hans (1873–1941)

German psychiatrist and philosopher of science. He first described the human electroencephalogram (EEG) in 1929. The differential patterns of cortical electrical activity he observed in alert and relaxed subjects led him to attempt the application of EEG to the study of psychophysical relationships and of conscious processes in general. He saw EEG as a key to the mind–body problem, a problem with which he was preoccupied for much of his life.

Latterly he proposed a confusing form of psychophysical parallelism, allowing for interaction between physical and mental domains through the transfer and transformation of physical and psychic energy respectively.

By partially overlapping his film while it was still in the camera (rolling it back and forth, shooting it over itself) and printing the resu ltant disembodied bits of signage, Berger made his chalked data even more disjointed and isolated, so that they made up a kind of endless stutter at the edge of communication.
