Annika and Tristan are two distinct persons occupying a single body. To our knowledge, their case is unique and neither understood nor even described in the psychiatric and psychological literature. They believe that their case sheds light on the nature of consciousness and mind-body interaction. Here they describe how, after years of struggle, they have learned how to coordinate their activities and live in harmony in the body they share. The interview concludes with a duet in which they play guitar and sing together. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:04:47 There was a struggle at first 00:10:24 Coordinating body control 00:19:45 Jumping through time 00:25:53 Rapid switching control 00:30:28 Dissociative identity disorder 00:37:30 States of consciousness 00:40:06 Activities together 00:50:56 Guitar and singing 01:04:44 Conclusion Edited subtitles for this video are available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Swedish.
