The central nervous system function of time-form entities are examined. The term Logogenesis is introduced as a concept to denote genetically programmed development of mental concepts and time form-entities, as a counterpart to morphogenesis which concerns development of structure. Special attention is given to the time-form logogenesis of natural language entities of emotion communication, and their natural syntax. How time-forms are used in music to generate living, meaningful performances from written scores is described and proved with computer generated classical music, in the context of four modes of time experience, t1, t2, t3, and t4. The modes apply to different time scales and use different natural data processing properties. Models of appropriate peptide dynamics are suggested for some of these amygda-related processes. Some properties of modified time consciousness in relation to these modes are also discussed.

To extend fmdings from visual neurophysiology we plotted responses for 48 locations in the somatosensory "barrel cortex" of the rat to spatial and temporal frequency stimulation of their vibrissae. The recordings obtained from bursts of spikes were plotted as response manifolds resembling field potentials such as those recorded with small macroelectrodes. The burst manifolds were shown to be composed of those obtained from single spikes, demonstrating continuity between two levels of analysis (single spikes and bursts). A computer simulation of our results showed that, according to the principles of signal processing, the somatosensotyreceptive fields can be readily described by Gabor-like functions much as in the visual system. Further, changes with respect to direction of whisker stimulation could be described in terms of spatiotemporal (vectorial?) shifts among these functions. As late as the 1950's, the structure of memory storage and the brain processes leading to perception remained enigmatic. Thus Karl Lashley (1950) could exclaim that his lifelong search for an encoded memory trace had been in vain, and Gary Boring (1929) could indicate in his History of Experimental Psychology that little was to be gained, at this stage of knowledge, by psychologists studying brain function. All this was dramatically changed when engineers, in the early 1960's, found ways to produce optical holograms using the mathematical fonnulation proposed by Dennis Gabor (1948). The mathematics of holography and physical properties of holograms provided a palpable instantiation ofdistributed memory and how percepts (images) could be retrieved from such a distributed store. Engineers, (e.g. Van Heerden, 1963) psychophysicists, (e.g. Julez and Pennington, 1965); and neuroscientists, (e.g. Pribram, 1966; and Pollen, Lee and Taylor, 1971) saw the relevance of holography to the hitherto intractable issues of brain function in meqlory and perception (Barrett, 1969; Campbell & Robson, 1968; and Pribram, Nuwer and Barron, 1974). However, this early promise failed, for a variety of reasons, to take hold in the scientific community. The fact that neurophysiologically the holographic spread function is limited to single, albeit overlapping, receptive fields (patches) was not recognized by psychophysicists who, therefore, spent considerable energy in disproving globally conceived distributed functions. However, engineers, e.g. Bracewell (see review, 1969), soon showed that such patch holography could and did produce correlated three-dimensional images when inverse transformed, a technique that became the basis of optical image processing in tomography. The application of this principle to the receptive field structure (Robson 1975) overcame the psychophysical problem. Further, it was unclear just how the principles involved in holography related to ordinary measures of brain physiology.
