I believe
this kind of fundamental reciprocal relationship is fundamentally in order to
understand the mind. I would say that consciousness depends on it.
I wouldn't
say that consciousness is identical to it or reducible to it. That would be
different kinds of thinking.
So this kind of reciprocal model of function can
be described at several different levels of description and my model begins
with the surface manifestation level
if you order the level of the mind rather
than from your all components simply because it's a possibility that the mind
can be realized in a number of different ways that is different strategies that
the brain is able to employ.
And those strategies should be thought of as a
kind of orchestration of very simple functions of elementary functions in the
brain
that are truly localized they are orchestrated in global on large scale
networks perhaps as strategies in order to realize this kind of this kind of
manifestation level..
And every time we succeed in doing something or even
perceive something these networks are elementary functions will be
strengthened.
Now should an injury occur to an elementary function a different
kind of strategy which may be markedly different which may be less effective or
less effective seem able to take over this realization and this can only be
possible due to a constant reorganization of the level of elementary functions.
very important
So please note
that this idea involves a very important change of perspectives.
The upper
level here seems to reorganize the lower level of description that is cognition
alters brain architecture.
You might say that you need to understand the mind
in order to be able to understand the brain in this way.
I would argue that the
brain constantly optimizes its own functions given resource limitations not by
analyzing lots of data but by back propagation from action and cognition.
So in
this way a function can be the same and different before and after a brain
injury dependent on the level of description.
And in my model the upper level
or the surface level seems to have two aspects of functional one and the
subjectively conscious one and neither can be reduced to the other set before
.
And if that is right then neuroscience can never completely explain
consciousness.
However the relation between the two can be understood and
described. So it is probably some time that we discuss what we can do and what
we should not do once we have this knowledge.
Therefore my question to you is
also how we might apply insights into consciousness for various clinical and
practical purposes.
