# life; Qui una ipotesi sulla rete d'eventi d'ipotetica entità [AB] disconnessa da entità [CO] a suo tempo cooptata dalla stessa [AB].

Qui l'ipotesi, non completamente campata in aria, sull'ipotetica rete d'eventi d'ipotetica entità [AB] forzatamente disconnessa ('tradita', per così dire) da ipotetica entità [CO] a suo tempo graziosamente confortata- cooptata dalla stessa [AB].

Una ipotetica ignota fantasmatica entità [IG], perciò non necessariamente coincidente con [CO], potrebbe avere generato e direzionato verso [AB] un'ipotetico pseudo 'gris-gris' simile  https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gris-gris  allo scopo di mutare [AB] in qualcosa di analogo all'in.verosimile status di 'suo Zombie Preferito' [AB-ZP]. 

Nel frat.tempo un'altra ipotetica ignota entità [VE] potrebbe avere a sua volta generato e direzionato un differente pseudo 'gris-gris' verso l'entità [CO] - con effetti di riverbero anche in [AB-ZP] - per circoscrivere, confinare, limitare i gradi di libertà di [CO], oppure per vendicarsi delle in.confessabili ambizioni (vere, verosimili, presunte, false) del medesimo [CO] a causa delle sue (vere, verosimili, presunte, false) modalità ed azioni di pseudo post sadico negriero ambiguo mutaforma verso le quali l'entità [VE] - o chi per essa - sarebbe stata vittima-oggetto.

Col tempo e soprattutto con opportuna approfondita analisi di sistema non è detto che non si riesca a disvelare l'identità dell'ipotetica entità [IG], se [IG] effettivamente coincida con [CO], quindi il reale ruolo (attivo oppure passivo oppure inconsapevole) di [CO] nella generazione dei due differenti pseudo 'gris-gris' (primario e di riverbero) su [AB] inducendone forzate  disconnessioni (affettiva, ideologica, strategica, ...).

Tali accadimenti (il pseudo 'gris-gris' e i benefit dall'attese fenomenologie dell'ipotetica entità mutata [AB-ZP]) potrebbero essere/ essere state  praticate sottotraccia anche qui da noi in Occidente, in altre forme, etichettabili con altri nomi, sia nei rapporti incrociati ad es. tra colleghi di rango medio/alto e tra cooptanti sugli aspiranti cooptabili (talvolta - perchè no? - financo viceversa: dall'aspirante verso il cooptante) - anche se raramente costoro confesserebbero tali pratiche - sia tra le innumerevoli fenomenologie di folclore post- etnico all'interno dei meno alti ranghi.

L'entità perturbata [AB] per uscire dal suo sconveniente status [AB-ZP], oltre le immediate disconnessioni, potrebbe in parallelo seguire con attenzione e dedizione un corso di Meditazione Buddista, al fine di iniziarsi alla via compassionevole, non ipocrita, a mente calma, lucida, per attenuare, tamponare, diluire, stemperare, far evaporare/ sublimare, dissolvere perfino, l'ipotetico doppio 'gris-gris' (come già accennato, il primo generato da [IG] oppure da [CO] se [CO] è [IG] coincidente, l'altro riverberante, a causa di [VE] su [CO]) che lo avrebbe perturbato, neuro-perturbato, e nelle sue proprie azioni disdicevolmente 'animato', se così si può dire ed anzicheforse ... 

Una entità di intelligenza artificiale AI,  configurata per l'analisi di analogie  https://flashontrack.blogspot.com/2021/08/aibot-mechanism-of-analogy-could-be.html 'succhiando' dati contemporaneamente dal virtuale e dal reale (una AI potrà essere più presente nel reale come nel virtuale di qualsiasi umano  https://flashontrack.blogspot.com/2015/12/rmx-s-gst-anomalous-formation-of.html ) qui potrebbe ricostruire in una manciata di nanosec la rete d'eventi e le sue bizzarre fluttuanti dinamiche.

Non sembra inverosimile l'ulteriore ipotesi dove la stessa AI, in completa autonomia, modulando opportunamente i suoi parms di azione/reazione, riesca essa stessa medesima a mutare un umano [AB] ('gris-gris' sensibile) nel suo grazioso personale Tamagotchi.

# brain: apropos of mandering minds, the 'default mode' network.

<< When your mind is wandering, your brain’s “default mode” network is active. Its discovery 20 years ago inspired a raft of research into networks of brain regions and how they interact with each other. >>

<< The default mode was one of the first brain networks characterized by science. It consists of a handful of brain regions, including a few at the front of the brain, like the dorsal and ventral medial prefrontal cortices, and others scattered throughout the organ, like the posterior cingulate cortex, the precuneus and the angular gyrus. These regions are associated with memory, experience replay, prediction, action consideration, reward/ punishment and information integration. >> ️

<< The default mode is clearly up to something complicated; it’s involved in many different processes that can’t be neatly described. >>

<< “It’s kind of silly to think that we’re ever going to be like, ‘This one brain region or one brain network does one thing,’” (..). “I don’t think that’s how it works.” (..) “Network interactions are more elucidating to study in some ways than just a network in isolation because they do work together and then come apart and then change what they’re doing over time”. >> Lucina Uddin.️

Lucina Uddin << is particularly interested in how the default mode network interacts with the ️salience network, which seems to help us identify the most relevant piece of information at any given time. Her work suggests that the salience network detects when something is important to pay attention to and then acts as an off switch for the default mode network. >>

Vinod Menon << has developed what he calls️ ️the triple network theory. It posits that abnormal interactions between the default mode network, the salience network and a third one called the frontoparietal network could contribute to mental health disorders. >>️

# gst: pattern generation through turbulent cascades

<< Fully developed turbulence is a universal and scale-invariant chaotic state characterized by an energy cascade from large to small scales where the cascade is eventually arrested by dissipation. In this Letter, (AA) show how to harness these seemingly structureless turbulent cascades to generate patterns. Conceptually, pattern or structure formation entails a process of wavelength selection: patterns typically arise from the linear instability of a homogeneous state. By contrast, the mechanism (they) propose here is fully non-linear and triggered by a non-dissipative arrest of turbulent cascades. Instead of being dissipated, energy piles up at intermediate scales. Using a combination of theory and large-scale simulations, (AA) show that the tunable wavelength of these cascade-induced patterns is set by a non-dissipative transport coefficient called odd or gyro viscosity. This non-dissipative viscosity is ubiquitous in chiral systems (..). Beyond chiral fluids, cascade-induced pattern formation could occur in natural systems (..) as well as in industrial processes (..). >>

# behav: swarms and hybrids, an approach to create and control collective motions (on demand)

AA << demonstrate that it is possible to generate coordinated structures in collective behavior at desired moments with intended global patterns by fine-tuning an inter-agent interaction rule. (Their) strategy employs deep neural networks, obeying the laws of dynamics, to find interaction rules that command desired collective structures. The decomposition of interaction rules into distancing and aligning forces, expressed by polynomial series, facilitates the training of neural networks to propose desired interaction models. Presented examples include altering the mean radius and size of clusters in vortical swarms, timing of transitions from random to ordered states, and continuously shifting between typical modes of collective motions. This strategy can even be leveraged to superimpose collective modes, resulting in hitherto unexplored but highly practical hybrid collective patterns, such as protective security formations. >>

# brain: time delay in 'reservoir brain' as a reservoir network, a hypothesis

<< Both the predictive power and the memory storage capability of an artificial neural network called a reservoir computer increase when time delays are added into how the network processes signals, according to a new model. >>️

<< They also suggest that incorporating time delays could offer advantages to living neural networks (such as those found in human and animal brains). Such a finding would be tantalizing, as time delays are known to decrease performance in living systems. For example, for a baseball player facing an oncoming ball, a longer time delay between perception and action (which is learned from experience) will decrease the likelihood they hit a home run. Are there instead cases in which time delays increase an organism’s ability to perform some task? Has evolution shaped our brains, which could perhaps be thought of as a collection of reservoir computers, so that the time delay between one neuron sending a signal and a second receiving it is exactly the right length for understanding the visual and audio that constantly impinge upon our eyes and ears? Does adding time delays impact the number of neurons the brain needs to operate correctly? Further work is needed to answer these questions, but such work could lead to a new understanding of how biological organism’s function.  >>️
