Pribram proposed that neural holograms were formed by the diffraction patterns of oscillating electric waves within the cortex. [26] Representation occurs as a dynamical transformation in a distributed network of dendritic microprocesses. [27] It is important to note the difference between the idea of a holonomic brain and a holographic one.
Karl H. Pribram (/ ˈ p r aɪ b r æ m /; German: [ˈpʁiːbram]; February 25, 1919 – January 19, 2015) was a visionary neurosurgeon, neuroscientist and theoretical philosopher described by his peers as the “Einstein of Brain Science” [1] and the “Magellan of the Mind” for his groundbreaking research into the function and roles of the limbic system, frontal lobes, and temporal lobes ...
In Bohm's interpretation, the (non-local) quantum potential constitutes an implicate (hidden) order which organizes a particle, and which may itself be the result of yet a further implicate order: a superimplicate order which organizes a field. [32] Nowadays Bohm's theory is considered to be one of many interpretations of quantum mechanics.
David Joseph Bohm FRS [1] (/ b oʊ m /; 20 December 1917 – 27 October 1992) was an American scientist who has been described as one of the most significant theoretical physicists of the 20th century [2] and who contributed unorthodox ideas to quantum theory, neuropsychology and the philosophy of mind.
Bohm also used the term unfoldment to characterise processes in which the explicate order becomes relevant (or "relevated"). Bohm likens unfoldment also to the decoding of a television signal to produce a sensible image on a screen. The signal, screen, and television electronics in this analogy represent the implicate order, while the image ...
In evolutionary psychology, people often speak of the four Fs which are said to be the four basic and most primal drives (motivations or instincts) that animals (including humans) are evolutionarily adapted to have, follow, and achieve: fighting, fleeing, feeding and fucking (a more polite synonym is the word "mating").
It is generally argued that the Aharonov–Bohm effect illustrates the physicality of electromagnetic potentials, Φ and A, in quantum mechanics.Classically it was possible to argue that only the electromagnetic fields are physical, while the electromagnetic potentials are purely mathematical constructs, that due to gauge freedom are not even unique for a given electromagnetic field.
Such initial position is not knowable or controllable by the experimenter, so there is an appearance of randomness in the pattern of detection. In Bohm's 1952 papers he used the wavefunction to construct a quantum potential that, when included in Newton's equations, gave the trajectories of the particles streaming through the two slits. In ...
