can you delineate what a neurocluster is? So not what it represents, but what it is. What neurons, in which parts of the brain, and how have you shown that they behave as autonomous 'personalities'?
Definition of the term “cluster”: A “cluster” is a group or bunch of several homogeneous elements, which can be considered as a separate unit, which has certain properties.
As for example, in physics “cluster” can be a small group of atoms or molecules, in astrophysics there are star clusters consisting of stars, and galaxy clusters consisting of galaxies, and so on.
=======================
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster
Cluster may refer to:
In science
-- Cluster (physics), a small group of atoms or molecules.
-- Cluster chemistry, an array of bound atoms intermediate in character between a molecule and a solid
-- Cluster sampling, a sampling technique used when "natural" groupings are evident in a statistical population
-- Cluster analysis, a technique for statistical data analysis
-- Consonant cluster, in linguistics
=======================
The same physical element can be assigned to different unrelated logical clusters. As for example, in human population we can divide the people in clusters using different criteria – as for example, we can divide people by their religion and we will get cluster of Christians, cluster of Muslims, cluster of Buddhists and so on, however we can divide the same exact population by the favorite color which a man likes and we will get cluster of people who like red color, cluster of people who like blue color, cluster of people who like green color and so on. It is obvious that the same exact man will get into absolutely different clusters when filtered out by religion and when filtered out by his favorite color. There will be many Christians, Muslims and Buddhists who like red color, there will be many Christians, Muslims and Buddhists who like blue color, and so on.
In exactly the same fashion the neurons in the brain can be grouped into different logical clusters. The neurons can be grouped into the same cluster by the color to which these neurons respond, the neurons can be grouped into the same cluster by the same orientation visual bar stimulus to which these neurons respond, and so on.
Definition of the term “neurocluster” – a group of neurons which are connected with each other and jointly perform concrete computational task.
Important notice: when we use the term “neurocluster” (neural cluster) in the context of Neurocluster Brain Model – the default meaning is “egregoric neurocluster”, i.e. neurocluster which stores information about the egregor (object X model).
Below is the explanation about the term “egregor”.
Models of the objects can be copied from one human brain into another human brain in the similar way like computer files can be copied from one computer into another. The model of object X is copied from one human brain into another brain when man A tells to man B the features of object X, draws and shows the pictures of object X, makes statuette of object X and shows it, etc.
When two or more people have the same identical (or very similar) model of object X written in their brains – this phenomenon is called the “egregor X”.
Egregor is the same identical object X model which is multiplied and written into the brains of two or more individuals.
Egregor is the equivalent of the computer program and has many features of computer program (it can be copied, overwritten, deleted, etc), however there are some differences from computer program.
As for example egregor has a feature called “the strength of egregor”.
The strength of egregor increases when increases the number of people who have the same object X model written in their brains. The bigger the number of people who are the carriers of egregor – the stronger the egregor.
The working principle of the egregor strength is very simple.
Suppose we have a man A whose brain has no data about object X.
If man A meets man B whose brain contains object X model, then copying of model X from man’s B brain into man’s A brain meets great resistance because of high suspicion if the model X is reliable and if the model X can be trusted.
However if man A meets two(2) other men who are the carriers of object X model, then copying of model X into man’s A brain is done more easily because the fact that two other men trust the model X decreases the suspicion that the model X is unreliable.
If man A meets ten(10) other men who are the carriers of object X model, then copying of model X into man’s A brain is done more easily because the fact that ten other men trust the model X decreases the suspicion that the model X is unreliable.
And so on.
If man A sees that a million men are carriers of object X model, then copying of model X into man’s A brain is done almost without any checks of model X validity.
The strength of egregor X is directly proportional to the number of people who are the carriers of object X model.
The strength of egregor has no correlation with the truthfulness of facts which are contained inside the egregor.
The egregor can be very strong, however facts which are contained inside the egregor can be absolutely false.
And vice versa.The egregor can be weak, however facts which are contained inside the egregor can be true.
Strong egregor has a power to force a man into accepting ideas and claims which contradict real world data.
can you delineate what a neurocluster is? So not what it represents, but what it is. What neurons, in which parts of the brain, and how have you shown that they behave as autonomous 'personalities'?
When a man sees new unknown object for the first time then finite number of neurons in the brain (cluster of neurons) stores information about object's model (how the object looks, how the object moves, how the object behaves, etc). Information about that object is saved not in the whole brain, but only in the finite “piece of the brain” – the evidence for that are experimental data about brain damage – if the brain is damaged in some local area then brain loses information only about some classes of objects, but not about all objects. The model of the object(== egregor) is stored inside the “piece of the brain” (cluster of neurons) and this neurocluster acts not only as passive “data file” but also under special conditions this neurocluster can act as “executable file” which can simulate the behavior of stored object for the main personality.
As for example, if the model of the dog is written into the brain then under proper conditions (== elimination of signals coming from sensory organs, which happens during dream/ “spiritual journey”) that “dog” becomes “alive” and generates the image of alive dog for the main personality. That “dog” barks, jumps, runs, etc. Question: why this “dog” behaves like being alive? The answer is very simple. All neurons have small spontaneous activity, i.e. neurons generate impulses even when being in the resting state when there are no input signals. In other words, the “dog” is controlled by the spontaneous activity of neurons and that is the reason why the “dog” moves/runs/etc. Exactly the same as with the “dog”, the images of non-living objects (table, chair, walls of the house, etc) in the dream are also unstable and are “waving” – various objects appear and disappear from the field of view of the main personality.
The same identical neuron can belong to several different egregoric neuroclusters. As for example, the same identical neuron X can belong to dog-model-neurocluster and to cat-model-neurocluster.
Question: what is the difference between different egregoric neuroclusters?
Answer: different egregoric neuroclusters contain different groups of neurons, however some of these neurons may belong to several different egregoric neuroclusters. The sharing of the same identical neurons between different egregoric neuroclusters has an advantage of more compact storage of information in the brain.
Neurons which belong to one egregoric neurocluster do not need to be compactly packed near each other into some small 3D space. Neurons which belong to egregoric neurocluster can be spread widely through large volume of the brain like a thin “spider-web”. The only requirement for egregoric neurocluster is that neurons belonging to that egregoric neurocluster must form continuous/unbroken network, however this network might be spread widely through large volume of the brain and even more it can be tangled with other networks of other egregoric neuroclusters in the same physical space. In other words, multiple egregoric neuroclusters can coexist in the same “piece of the brain”, however each of this egregoric neurocluster is a thin “spider-web” which is tangled with other thin “spider-webs” (i.e. tangled with other egregoric neuroclusters).
which parts of the brain <…>?
The concrete location of concrete autonomous neurocluster can be diagnosed using data about consequences of the brain damage accidents – like for example, strokes, localized mechanical damage (like bullet wounds), etc.
If you have a man who previously had strong manifestation of autonomous neurocluster activity (man was hearing voices in his head, was seeing/hearing angels/demons/etc, had the ability of psychography, etc) and if after some local damage to his brain he has lost his “supernatural” ability (he no longer hears voices in the head, no longer sees/hears angels/demons/etc, has lost the ability of psychography, etc), then it is pretty obvious that this particular autonomous neurocluster was located in that damaged area of the brain.
how have you shown that they behave as autonomous 'personalities'?
There are many ways to show that they behave as autonomous “personalities”, several examples were described in previous posts – “invoking of the spirit” during spiritualistic séance, dream character analysis, etc.
