Wherein I trace my discovery of holographic-like patterns of brain processing.

There is still no discipline of mathematical idea analysis from a cognitive perspective, namely to apply the science of mind to mathematics—no cognitive science of mathematics.

A discipline of this sort is needed for a simple reason: Mathematics is deep, fundamental, and essential to the human experience. As such, it is crying to be understood. It has not been.

It is up to cognitive science and the neurosciences to do what mathematics itself cannot do—namely apply the science of mind to human mathematical ideas.
