SelvedgesNotes for a Connectionist Manifesto
Mapping inputs in n dimensionsBroad swatches back of the brain map swapped halves of the retinas.Blowups of the foveal business districts dominate this folded map spanning the occiput, brightest of several small skies draped against the skull. The way skin maps to cortex, lips and fingertips dwarf the legs' long stretches. Here a palm brushed down her back her spine's length travels no farther than the little finger slowly tracing the outlines of her mouth. Kisses flourish everywhere our densely sampled regions meet. Our muscular degrees of freedom can't lie so flat yet the net captures them in its ample spaces. These maps fold so smoothly into us, they make territories after all. Edge extraction in real timeThe role of the dark in motion picturesThe signature of time ablaze in the tissuesSelvageSolving systems of simultaneous constraints |
