Another term used to convey roughly the same concept is the #metamodal brain, as in "The metamodal organization of the brain" (2001) https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/The-metamodal-organization-of-the-brain.-Pascual-Leone-Hamilton/eeedd34487cb51d7d88897bdc8dab5ea93965e2d by Alvaro Pascual-Leone and Roy H. Hamilton. On YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EVfaaX1AbM&t=1786s

"It has been proposed that the brain is organized by '#metamodal', sensory-independent modules specialized for performing certain tasks. This idea has inspired therapeutic applications such as #sensory #substitution #devices, e.g., enabling #blind individuals 'to see' by transforming visual input into #soundscapes."
