documentary on this subject a few months ago, I'm not sure, but
I believe it was called The Brain. It was technically about the
brain in general, but this came up. They showed a man who could
not recognize faces thanks to a brain injury. He saw the face,
but the recognition didn't work. He couldn't even draw faces he
had just seen.  He couldn't identify famous faces or anything.
It was quite strange as they went into the reasons why and the
explanations of how he saw faces. Apparently when he looked at a
face, he saw the individual parts, but could not piece them
together as a face. The guy couldn't even recognize his own kids
and wife. Interesting indeed as it seems the way machines do it
is quite similar to the way we do it, looks like we aren't so
different after all.  RE: The Brain By Reclaimer77 on 1/20/09,
