References
- The pineal gland is found near the center of the brain, just above the superior colliculus. It is believed by some to have mystical powers.
- Descartes wrote that the pineal gland might play some important role in consciousness, which was one of the earliest speculations in the Philosophy of Mind. Also within the purview of the Philosophy of Mind is is the Zombie Hypothesis, which posits the existence of human beings who behave exactly like we do, but have no consciousness (and are thus, Philosophical zombies). This makes the notion of a "zombie pineal gland" an ironic combination of Philosophical concepts that suggests "the consciousness of something without consciousness."
- In the notorious movie Plan 9 From Outer Space, zombies are created in part by zapping corpses' pineal glands with electricity.
