Overview

Consciousness is one of the most fascinating and complex phenomena in the universe. It represents the subjective experience of being aware - both of the external world and of one's own internal states.

The Ogas-Grossberg model represents a significant contribution to our understanding of how consciousness emerges in vertebrate animals. This model is primarily based on Stephen Grossberg's Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) and has been further developed and popularized by Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam in their book "Journey of the Mind: How Thinking Emerged from Chaos."

This website explores both general theories of consciousness and the specific functional model proposed by Ogas and Grossberg, providing a comprehensive understanding of this complex topic.
