This adds that if you try to pay attention to many things you don't pay attention to them all at ones, but rather to one at time in a fast sequence. And also that parts of the brain has a clock frequency.

Parallel processes are quite normal in the brain. In fact, one part can be on serial process whereas the other part is on parallel process (let alone all the other processes that are constantly going on in the brain). Sometimes your so called subconscious (ever noticed that this system underneath can be swopped .. depending on what's on top ...?) picks up on something your very alert self on top did not pick up on .. .. A specific way of scanning series .. crowds .. helps to find something you're looking for way faster. It's as putting in the image of that what you're looking for in the search scanner ... You will need to focus so much then ... it's a more vague way of scanning .. more numbed ... Hm, depends how you enter that bar. Parallel processes are quite normal in the brain.
