as is explained in AoK, Ap5, the hippocampi guide convergence upon
'supersystem configurations' with respect to the topologically-distributed
ratio of excitation to inhibition [TD E/I] that is occuring within the brain
[within the nervous system].
the fornix is a bundle of nerve fibers that carries TD E/I-relevant
information between low-level mechanisms, and and which, importantly,
'inverts' the topology of such, so that it can be appropriately interfaced
with intermediate-'level' 'supersystem configuration' dynamics.
the cyst's pressing against the fornix, interrupted this communication which
is fundamentally necessary for the formation of formerly-non-existent
intermediate-'level' 'supersystem configurations'.
the cyst's disruption left the individual's brain incapable of forming new,
intermediate-'level' 'supersystem configurations'.
absent this capacity, the functionality of the remaining low- and
high-'level' 'supersystem configuration' mechanisms [brain stem, cerebellum,
basal ganglia, prefrontal cortex, along with incomplete hypothalamic
functionality], functioned 'normally'... leaving the individual to
'experience' what was left of his information-processing dynamics... kind of
like a wharehouse during a trucker's strike... one can walk around in it,
and see what's already there, but one will find nothing new 'on the
shelves'.
when the cyst was drained, the individual's information-processing dynamics
returned to 'normal'.
the case is a good example of how information gathered by Medical
practicioners has entered into the complete 'picture' of brain [nervous
system] function that exists. [for a more-integrated discussion, see AoK.]
