The brain controls the way we relate to our body, the world around us, space, and time. When it becomes dysfunctional we become out of step, out of sync and often an outcast. A series of cases explore bizarre and terrifying losses of memory, recognition and identity. Peter Brook took Oliver Sack's book of neurological studies, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, as his inspiration for this piece.
