| Dr Maggie Aderin-pocock | 20150512 | The Thought Chamber is a room devoid of light and sound, where a guest is left on their own for up to an hour. During that time, they are asked to vocalise the thoughts that come into their head, resulting in a snapshot of the inner workings of their mind. In many ways, the results are much more revealing than a traditional interview, as no one can anticipate the subject matters or the direction of where the mind is going. We hear memories, fears, concerns, ambitions, insights, dreams, fantasies - as well as the day-to-day mundane problems that everyone faces. One minute the guest may be dreaming about flying around the universe - the next he or she is worrying about what to get the kids for tea tonight. There's no script, no questions, no stimulus - just the random workings of the brain. Guests during the series include: award winning artist Grayson Perry; scientist and presenter of The Sky at Night, Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock; and musician and drummer from Radiohead, Phillip Selway. Presented by Sian Williams Producer: Mark Sharman A TBI Media production for BBC Radio 4. A room devoid of light and sound where a guest is left alone to reveal their thoughts.
