    The Perceptual model and revolution

    A long meditation and the historical development of a perceptual model as the solution to our problems.

  • The five bony landmarks of cerebellar cognition in the deep core musculoskeletal architecture.

    The five bony landmarks of cerebellar cognition in the deep core musculoskeletal architecture. What is a bony landmark? It is very simply a major prominent bone located in the center of one of the major junctures of the body. This bone is shaped like a grip, handle, or lever and is anchored deep in the…

  • The (5) self evident bony landmarks of embodied cognition

    The anatomical landmarks of embodied cognition are no less self evident than the falimiar anatomical landmarks of mental cognition. Our different sensory organs, the eyes, ears, mouth and skin, our hands and feet, our torso and our head are universally familiar landmarks for self awareness in the surface system. These are self evident to the…

  • The cerebellar transform is the core.

    The cerebellar transform is the core.

    The cerebellar transform is the core. It appears to be a structural requirement in the physics of living things that there exists not only an outside and inside but a generative core in which is located the identity of the organism. The addition of the generative core makes perfect sense given the entire vertebrate phylum…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • The Generative Core

    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…

  • Biomechanical enlightenment and my hip surgery.

    Biomechanical enlightenment and my hip surgery.

    Biomechanical Enlightenment and My Hip Surgery I had my second hip surgery Tuesday. It was a profound violation of my body. My bone was replaced with a metal joint. In a sense it is a profound attack but of course it is for the purpose of healing a part of me that was unrepairable. It…
