ON SELF AND SELF AWARENESS
Given that sensory inputs generate but a fractured representation of universals, the issue of perceptual unity concerns the mechanisms that allow these different sensory components to be gathered into one global image. In recent years, this has been described as ‘binding’, to be implemented by temporal conjunction. Because the number of possible categories of perceptions is so extensive, their implementation via purely hierarchical connectivity, where a single grandmother neuron or a small group of such neurons represent specific elements of a category, is very unlikely.
