- Can all aspects of conscious thought be viable using a method of memory access?
- Conscious thought is perhaps often regarded as imagined words being processed and organised within the mind, in a manner relative to and representative of stimulation to the brain.
- To break this down, the first variable in my definition, is imagined words. Are imagined words anything more than a memory of hearing or seeing that word, combined with a memory of the concept of which that word represents?
- Most words come to mind as “second nature”, without consciously analysing which word is applicable for an intended meaning. The words themselves are memory, since they are only gained through life learning, but since they don’t require (Usually) conscious analysis, I would consider the type of mind process to be subconscious. This would be relative to words used commonly by the individual. Some words take more consideration and analysis of intended meaning, related to a vocabularic term, and some can even be forcefully adapted and constructed, regardless of exact common technicality (such as “vocabularic”:). This would be mostly conscious thought implemented in the case of consideration of vocabulary. But whether common or rare term, and whether conscious or subconscious mind method, both seem to use the process of memory.
- So a word itself, is memory access, but what about the intended meaning, and concept of which the word is referring to?
- When an individual consciously derives concepts (for which words are suited to), which are relevant and applicable to a stimuli, they are simply accessing memory data of the concept, which is relative to whatever stimulated that concept to be considered. Every concept of which an individual can think of (for which a vocabularic term is labelled to), is theoretically a memory of an object, substance, action, or combination of each, which was saved to the memory bank via senses. This is relevant because if all words can be regarded as only concepts of objects, then all thoughts of words, could be only a memory, recorded only by method of the senses, and saved as data.
- To further simplify all concepts and ideas (and virtually everything in the universe) with a labelled term; they can be considered objects, or movement of objects. Actions can be considered a concept of the movement of an object(s). Liquid or substances can be considered many small objects (particles) combined. Air can be considered the objects of the elements which make up air. Emotion can be considered movement of a substance or electrical current (considered movement of electrons (objects)) within the brain. Memory itself can be considered (as the theory of this entire writing) objects, being the method of data storage, which the brain uses. A more complex concept can be considered a sub-construct of a larger quantity and or variety of objects, and motion of objects. Some sub-constructs might be vague and generalised in which specific objects or motion they refer to, but the concept is still of, only objects.
- The more advanced the brain becomes, theoretically, the more combinations of sub-constructs can be stored in memory, and the more accurately it can access varying sub-constructs and combinations. With more accurate access of memory, applicable to more specific circumstances (of the vast amount of potential varying circumstances within typical lifestyle), comes more preferential results. As the brains process of development, the more effective and useful a combination proves to be, the more positive feedback is issued from the brain, making that memory more easily triggered. The more the memory which is used, also, the more easily it is triggered.
- Regarding my previous definition of conscious thought (consisting of the prospect that all thoughts of words can be broken down to plausibly be only memory access), we’re left with the method in which the mind processes and organises words, in a manner relative to and representative of stimulation. The superficial term for the method of which the mind processes and organises words, would be sentences. Considering words as labels for concepts of sub-constructs of objects, sentences would be combinations of words. Sentences are to words, as complex concepts are to sub-constructs of objects/ motion of objects. So the method which the conscious mind processes words, is by accessing memory of complex combinations of sub-constructs of concepts. When an individual thinks a sentence, it is constructed piece by piece, word by word, each of which, is representing a sub-construct of objects which have been recorded to the memory.
- As far as I can determine, (just like every word in this sentence, which I thought of) all aspects of conscious thought are plausible via memory access.
