A comprehensive listing of article titles and authors/researchers accessible on the Internet.
It was proposed that the brain can work passing through pictures, and the properties of homeotherm state make the development of explicit memory possible in our brain (Bókkon 2003, 2005, 2006). That is to say, external electromagnetic visible photon…
The Organization for Computational Neurosciences (OCNS) organizes the international Computational Neuroscience meeting (CNS) each year. CNS is a premier forum for experimental and theoretical results addressing computation in the brain.
Profile Information
- Main areas of research:
- I deal with the natural biophysical substrate of visual perception and visual imagery.The main goal of my research is to prove that intrinsic pictures can be emerged by redox and biophoton processes in retinotopically organized cytochrome oxidase rich neurons of visual areas during visual imagery, visual hallucination, and REM dream pictures within the brain. You can read some of my papers on this website.
I do not claim to solve the secret of consciousness, but propose that the evolution in the higher levels of complexity made possible the intrinsic picture representation of the external visual world by regulated redox and bioluminescent biophotons in the visual system during visual perception and visual imagery.
Please, send me an email if you are interested in any cooperation!

- Dear Lynn
Here is a homepage http://www.grandin.com/inc/visual.thinking.html
about Dr. Temple Grandin with autism he is thinking in pictures

- Nyíri is a philosopher. There are still many people who believe that humans think primarily in words. I often think visually, especially higher level thoughts. This sometimes occurs in some of my dreams. For example, if I read something highly scientific that has a lot of complex math in it - math that I don't understand while I'm reading the article, I am likely to have a dream about the topic of the article, and in my dream, the math is represented visually. This is not easily put into words.
I remember reading an article about the "shape of sounds". From what I recall, people were asked to listen to sounds from instruments shaped like a circle, a triangle, etc.. Without knowing the shape of the instruments, they were able to correctly detect the shapes.
It would be interesting to know what sort of things were going on in their brains!

- Very interesting. My own dreams are quite vivid and I'm curious to read more about what you are researching.
