Summary
The visual cortex is responsible for the processing and interpretation of visual information in the brain, acting as a map of things in the visual world that one has experienced. It allows us to describe the scenes we see and recognize faces and objects, while the basal ganglia and cortex work together on top of the primal lizard brain.
