I can't integrate them, but my understanding is that this is simply how ASD brains work. We process things one at a time, rather than multitasking. Brain studies also show disruption between links between top down processing (understanding the big picture) and bottom up processing (focusing on details), and I know for myself this is definitely the case - my brain simply doesn't integrate the two. I don't think it's possible to change how the Aspie/autistic brain is wired, but rather find ways to use it for your advantage.
good point, but I prefer to believe that while our default brain condition may make integrating difficult, it doesn't mean we cant eventually train ourselves to make it somehow work out in a method suitable to our individual talents. We have habits and tendencies, but under the right circumstances, with the right attitude and lots of *practice,* I think our brain could possibly be capable of doing much more than what common science is telling us it can do. Ofcourse, each individual case is different....
