If you're into this sort of thing you might enjoy a more rigorous treatment from an actual neuroscientist, David Eagleman.

If you enjoyed this article, I recommend the PBS series, The Brain with David Eagleman. You can watch all the episodes on their Roku channel or their website[1]. The episode "What is Reality?" covers how everyone's brain creates a unique internal model of reality.
