Extremity of Expanding
Channel
:Now, here a fine distinction must be made. There are two ways for the auditory channel to "hear" a word: passively and actively. By "passively" I mean on the left side of the September 10th diagram: by actual perception or by associative activation of a passive memory (short-term or long-term). By "actively" I mean on the right side: by inner motor generation of the word so that it enters the receptive auditory channel on the left side. So when the left side is repeatedly referring by tag to a model word, it is not strictly an act of volition, it is an act of the natural flow of associations. The foregoing paragraph is not intuitively convincing, but it agrees with the theory that the left side is passive and the right side is volitional. Of course, the theory also says that the volition arises as the convictional end-product of ratiocination, which is the free-flowing interaction of the concept-nodes on the left side. The left side declares verisimilitude, which is automatically interpreted as volition by the bouleumatic accumulator system. Anyway, a reverberating word should be a unit with a proper tag over to the motor system, but if it's just a new model, of course it doesn't have a conceptual tag yet, so the "trans-tagging" operation drops to a lower level, lower in that it tags over to motor not the whole word, but the elemental quasi-conceptual tags of the constituent [SIGMA]-sounds of the model word. Now we assume that there is a certain general volitional desire to learn to say new words. Each time the model reverberates, it sends over to motor a serial volley of its constituent [SIGMA]-sounds. These constituent [SIGMA]-sounds comprise a tentative chain or concatenation in the habituation area, perhaps even in a "motor short-term memory." An impulse of volition coursing through the tentative concatenation can then actually send the [SIGMA]-sounds into motor-operation, either spoken or along the "internal verbal perception line" of the diagram of 10SEP1977. Thus the right side responds to a model by generating its own attempt at mimicry. The mimicry now comes into the perception side for corrective comparison with its original model. I suppose we now have a classical feedback situation, or a cybernetic situation, where the goal is to eliminate any differences showing up in the mimicry. At any rate, we somehow have to have an adjustment process on the left side so that on the right side the correct concatenation will be lined up when the habituator proceeds to "harden" its concatenation. Since the automaton is so strictly defined, how could any errors enter in? Well, there is room for error if the low-level process of sending over a volley of quasi-conceptual [SIGMA]-sounds is a particularly loose process. Since the sounds are going separately, they may lose their proper sequence during the cross-over, due perhaps to varying lengths in the "neuronal" pathways. We must also keep in mind that this process is designed as if it were taking place in a very young child.
My second insight concerns the relative natures of verbal and non- verbal volition. Non-verbal volition works fine, as in reaction to sudden danger. Enough compelling association towards an action simply causes it. What's more, I would like to place the activation-thresholds at the point where the "Motor Memory Activation Channel" enters the motor habit tagging system. Thus there need not be an elongated threshold system in between the passive and active sides of the mental automaton.Verbal volition, however, can be much more refined, precise and delicate, because there are such intricate pathways of verbal cogitation. The ego, referring to itself in English as "I," wanders amid its verbal memory and feels confidently in command of its motor options.
Therefore, in terms of inputs and outputs, the abstract memory channel is an organizer of all sensory perception channels for special presentation to the auditory perception channel. Significantly, the abstract memory channel can have both input from and output to the auditory memory channel. Although I have been designing the abstract memory in terms of the visual memory channel, a blind person can certainly learn the use of language, and therefore the abstract memory must be open to most or all of perception.
This is the stage at which a cognitive bifurcation appears to be forced upon us. Perhaps we do not establish engrams (let us call them bounded engrams) only of the kind I have already described. Perhaps we have another representational system as well, one that also registers a trace or "engram" worthy of being called a "memory" (cf. Pylyshyn, 1973).
