Lecture 5 (proprioception),
Lecture 6 (echolocation),
Lecture 7 (electric fish),
Lecture 8 (curiosity)

Background Material:
Influence of Extraocular Muscle Proprioception on Vision, P. Buisseret
Sensory control of extraocular muscles, Büttner-Ennever JA, Konakci KZ, Blumer R.
The orbital pulley system: a revolution in concepts of orbital anatomy. Demer JL.
Quantum computers:
A powerpoing presentation explaining quantum copmuters.
It deals with both the software, meaning algorithms that exploit quantum phenonmena in order to expedite computations,
and hardware, meaning how one can build quantum computers.
[PPS]
Quantum entanglement:
A powerpoint presentation explaining the most controversial,
important and counter-intuitive aspect of quantum physics: enatanglement.
How two objects can influence one another, no matter how far apart they are.
