What if the brain has a backend?
A possible layer that keeps neural activity stable and organized but cannot be measured by current tools.
We are developing reproducible experimental conditions to make this layer observable.
Interface vs. Backend
The Interface Layer
fMRI, EEG, and brain–computer interfaces primarily observe the brain’s interface layer: the measurable outputs of neural activity.
A Possible Backend Layer
We are exploring whether there may exist an organizational layer that shapes neural activity before it becomes observable at the interface.
Complementary dimensions. Considered together, these layers may offer a more complete picture of brain function.
Why This Matters
These questions reflect not a single contradiction, but a broader limitation in what current tools allow us to observe about brain organization.
How does the brain create vast intelligence with the power of a light bulb?
How does the brain weave billions of signals into a single experience?
Why do some brains lose their ability to stay organized?
They remain open because we observe only fragments.
A potentially missing layer of data may help connect these fragments into a clearer picture.
This is the foundation we aim to build.
Join the Exploration
We work at the edge of current human understanding.
This is long-term, foundational research. It requires patience, clear methods, and comfort with uncertainty. This work explores how minds maintain stability, and why that matters.
