  • We are towers of fantasies

    Updated: 2025-02-10 06:00:00
    Another cryptic clip from my personal journal:We are built of predictive fantasies at every level of our being - from single cells up through transient professional identities that seamlessly feedback down into and vitalize the physical body and nervous system that sustains them. We make each identity for ourselves by inferring what models are being performed by others, hopefully not doing total mimesis of one style, but rather cutting and pasting to come up with our own ‘unique’ personas.

It will appear in Behavioral and Brain Sciences . Motivated readers can obtain a PDF of the article by emailing me . nbsp Group-living creates stresses that , all else equal , naturally lead to group fragmentation , and hence loss of the benefits that group-living provides . How species that live in large stable groups counteract these forces is not well understood . I use comparative data on grooming

Much simpler than pretending to be one . Just nerves , muscles , and energy fluxes in and out . Curatorial rather than aspirational . Cooperating with other similar machines to make larger ensembles more effective at survival and replication . Generating a word cloud stored in higher brain

  • The Neurobiology of Aging

    Updated: 2025-01-17 06:00:00
    I want to point to the Jan. 8 issue of the journal "Neuron" which is largely devoted to the neuroscience of aging. A number of its review articles are open source. The writing is mostly gibble-gabble, but many useful references can be extracted, particularly on interactions between the immune and nervous systems relevant to aging.
