"Cross-modal remapping. During extensive sensory-substitution learning, the really interesting question becomes not merely whether auditory information activates visual cortex, but whether activity begins occupying dynamical modes normally associated with visual experience. If visual-like phenomenology eventually appeared, your theory predicts convergence at the level of these modes rather than necessarily convergence of the complete representational architecture." #BCI #blindness
The big challenge and Holy Grail of visual-to-auditory sensory substitution is then to somehow (training, behaviors, other stimuli, drugs, ...) evoke in late-blind people the spatiotemporal brainwave constellations associated with normal vision (eyesight). #qualia

Conjecture: Human #qualia are not (so much) linked to relational structures, symmetries, sensorimotor invariants etc within perceptual content, but rather linked to a small set of specific discrete brainwave constellations evoked by the perceptual input. The idea is that the brain supports a small set of brainwave "resonant modes", and perceptual (or even imagined) content thrown at the brain makes brain activity fall into just one of these (qualia) modes. Content structures can nudge which mode, but it is not the thing itself.

🎧Unseen #Sound – How Your #Brain Processes Inner #Music🧠
In the #Zoomposium with #DanielDennett, it becomes clear:
#Consciousness is less of a “place” where things happen and more of a #process of #processing, #interpretation, and #simulation.📽 https://youtu.be/M2qiVz95ZYk
