“One may see his behaviour as 'signs' of a 'disease'; one may see his behaviour as expressive of his existence. The existential-phenomenological construction is an inference about the way the other is feeling and acting [...] The clinical psychiatrist, wishing to be more 'scientific' or 'objective', may propose to confine himself to the 'objectively' observable behaviour of the patient before him. The simplest reply to this is that it is impossible. To see 'signs' of 'disease' is not to see neutrally. Nor is it neutral to see a smile as contractions of the circumoral muscles.” R D Laing
Vivian Sobchack compellingly argues...that electronic media 'engage [their] spectators and 'users' in a phenomenological structure of sensual and psychological experience that, in comparison with the cinematic, seems so diffused as to belong to no-body...the electronic is phenomenologically experienced not as a discrete, intentional, body-centered mediation and projection in space but rather as a simultaneous, dispersed, and insubstantial transmission across a network or web that is constituted spatially more as a materially flimsy latticework of nodal points than as a stable ground of embodied experience'
This is my first post since migrating from Google+.
I finally caught back up and surpassed my older Dart code and achieved adding my first basic STDP learning rule: triplet-STDP. Ironically the new code is written in Golang and SDL2 but I will be migrating to Rustlang next year.
The screen shot shows the gui frontend of the simulator (called Deuron). At the moment the simulator simulates a single LIF neuron with 10 synapses. Eventually the goal is to simulate a few hundred before building an FPGA framework.
The main paper I have been referencing is Abigail Morrison, Markus Diesmann, and Wulfram Gerstner paper:
Phenomenological models of synaptic plasticity based on spike timing
Phenomenological sleep disorders refer to sleep disturbances and disorders studied from a phenomenological perspective, which means exploring and understanding the lived experiences, perceptions, and meanings that individuals assign to their sleep problems. This approach focuses on the subjective experience of sleep disorders rather than only objective symptoms or clinical descriptions.

As it is today, in the past, more and more, the raw materials for color were mostly obtained from nature, such as flowers and fruits. In the process, color is used as ink to paint and create art. In other words, in addition to the inherent function of objects, humans use objects as tools for art. What I'm trying to say here is that everything in the world can be a source of art, a material, a tool, or an art in itself, depending on the capabilities of the artist, and that's why when we look at a phenomenon, we need to expand our thinking a little bit and look at the object that has the phenomenon along with the phenomenon.
In my Craft Project 3 class, we made fonts, and in the process, we designed and explored different types of letters using a variety of tools. In the process, we experienced the process of taking existing objects and recreating them into new images, like sticking a straw through an eraser or dipping a piece of string in ink and swirling it around on paper. I think this was an act that allowed me to see things in a new way through the expansion of my vision. I also came to think about the idea of 'ideas' and the fact that when we 'imagine', we often think of something whimsical that has never existed before, but in fact, many of the prerequisites that underlie them already exist in the world.

The experience of antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care is an important life experience; these memories accompany women throughout life. Pregnancy and the birth of a child are significant and challenging events in a woman's life, associated with considerable physical and psychological change. In developing countries the focus has understandably been on women's physical health and there has been comparatively little research exploring women's experiences of pregnancy and childbirth pregnancy and delivery is a journey to unknown world. Purposive sampling technique was employed to select sample and it consisted of 20 postnatal mothers who met the inclusion criteria. Modified Sawyer et al interview questionnaire which contained open-ended questionnaires and demographic proforma was used to collect data. The researcher interviewed the participants and it was tape-recorded. Findings showed that with regard to the high-risk condition, the majority (55.0%) subjects had PIH, (20.0%) subjects had hypothyroidism, (15.0%) subjects had GDM and (10.0%) subjects had oligohydramnios, anemia, bronchial asthma, twin pregnancy, edema and eclampsia each. Minimum (5.0%) of the subjects were obese. The result highlighted that majority 25% of the participants took extra precautions, 20% of the participants had increased fear and were worried about their outcome and 15% were struggling to believe that they had the disease. Majority of the participants 25% did not want another child, 20% opted for surgery and 10% thought about their mother, lost hope. Majority of the participants 30% wanted support from their mother and 20% wanted support from their husband. There was no association between the experiences of high-risk mothers and specific demographic data. Experiences of high-risk mothers revealed that life after diagnosis, expectations of birth outcome and increased responsibility.
