And I don't mean it in the Disney princess way, But in a way that pushes the human brain and body, and this is what defines their limits.
>The author of The Lesser Key of Solomon
The most famous book on magic, asserts that magic is not something from movies and novels but rather transcends the limits of the human brain through the use of the senses in a specific pattern (certain colors, certain smells, certain textures, certain sounds etc…)
And it's funny because he is half right.
>a single neuron can create +0.03 volts
while most humans have 80 billion of it, so in theory a human brain can generates electricity for an entire city.
Now obviously this is impossible due to the thermodynamic laws and the brain that create such power will melt along side the body, however wouldn't be weird if the neurons itself acted as positive and negative poles and turn the electricity into magnetic waves and redirect these waves to things like killing people by melting their brains?
Or making things levitate? or anything outside the human nature?

In this search they successfully made 800,000 neuron to play a simple computer game and be good at it
>less than 0.00134% of the brain
can actually play a simple game, without any sense, no eye sight or nothing, just electricity, imagine what an entire brain can do when fully used?
Is it possible that every story about those who pursued magic and lost their minds is a result of pushing their minds beyond their limits?
