And includes a live re-enactment of his coffee cup "epiphany" Does the Neocortex Use Grid Cell-Like Mechanisms to Learn the Structure of Objects? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVGQeFFjhEk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVGQeFFjhEk Russell Epstein also make a case for a predictive mechanism in "reorientation". Familiarizing ourselves to new physical locations may have an equivalence neurally and cognitively to the kind of "context-switch" that occurs when we switch from using one language to another.
