Perception Seen as a Creative Process of Self-Renewal

Walter J. Freeman, University of California, Berkeley

Neurodynamics is the study of how neurons firing in the brain relate to the mind, thinking and consciousness. For decades, people have been recording neurons firing and the electrical fields that they create, but that is so far removed from what is the mind that it has often been difficult to see any connection. Freeman's research has revealed the nature of the complex patterns in brain activity and has been able to begin to relate it to the operation of the mind.
