Dynamics versus dualism. Comment on "Is temporo-spatial dynamics the 'common currency' of brain and mind?" by Georg Northoff et al.
Abstract
As someone who views the physics of life through the lens of Langevin dynamics and pullback attractors [1], the notion that temporo-spatial dynamics furnishes the "common currency" of neuronal and mental features sounds perfectly tenable. The heart of the matter is nicely summarised by Northoff et al. [2], in their discussion of neuronal and mental relationships:
