The tripartite synapse and the tonic neural tripod of mental balance.
The tripartite synapse and the tonic neural tripod of mental balance. What we had always thought about the synapse, since Sherrington gave it its name, meaning “to grasp together” (syn-apse) Is that neurons communicated between each other in pairs. They were binary. Each neuron has thousands of synapses located along the branching dendrites, facilitating pattern… Read more

Where do you know the meaning of these words?: Self attention, the cerebellar transform, and the sensitive bony landmarks of the proprioceptive core. Anatomy is full of homologies, elements in a repeating pattern that is self validating, self evidencing, and generative. It should come as no surprise that a matching revolution follows quickly on the… Read more

The Generative Core
The Generative Core The generative core is a characteristic shared by all living organisms and is a part of the perceptual model of life. While everything including inanimate matter, from a rock to a river or even a pair of pants and a tuba, all have an outside and an inside, only complex living systems… Read more

The tonic cerebellar system and the tonic motor system compose the tonic functional system: proprioception
The tonic cerebellar system and the tonic motor system compose the tonic functional system: proprioception If the cerebellum performs a single basic function across all of its modules, the universal cerebellar transform, then it stands to reason that we should be able to find an indication of this in its motoric substrate. If we observe… Read more
