Mind Hacks is full of links

…and they’re all below to click on so you don’t have to type them in. If a page has moved, we’ll update this list to point to the new location, and if a demo has gone we’ll point to a replacement.

(If you do find mistakes or broken links, please let Tom or Matt know (use the email addresses on the main page) so we can make fixes. Thanks!)

Found this page by accident? These links are all used in the book Mind Hacks: Tips & Tools for Using Your Brain, a tour through the world of neuroscience and psychology, using small experiments and demos to illustrate what’s going on in your head. See the page about the book or our weblog to find out more.
