The encoding of many aspects of a remembered event simultaneously best illustrates our brain's capacity for "parallel processing".

In psychology, it is the capacity of the mind to at the same time process approaching stimuli of contrasting quality. This turns out to be most imperative in vision, as the brain separates what it sees into four parts: color, movement, shape, and depth. These are independently dissected and after that contrasted with stored memories, which enables the mind to recognize what you are seeing.
