If you would like to turn your ideas into a scientific investigation (for example, by coming up with a testable conjecture) the first thing to do is to clarify your terminology. Not necessarily to bring it in line with established terminology, although personally I don't like the proliferation of terms. But at least, you would need to pin down what you mean by neologisms such as "artificial glia" and the neoteric use of "engram" in the context of ANNs. Establishing clear terminology will help you tremendously to minimise the potential for misunderstanding of your ideas.
I think you're proposing a collaboration? I'm afraid I must very firmly discourage it. I'm currently writing my thesis and cannot justify any work outside of it. HN is a guilty pleasure that I really shouldn't be indulging in. But, thank you for the proposal, I'm flattered.

Completely understood. Perhaps when you are tenured I will finally have gotten around to studying doctoral psychology and you would be able to peruse my master’s thesis. I too am flattered that a doctoral student had the time to consider my thoughts. If I do formulate some operational definitions in the not-too-distant future, would you mind if I sent them to you in an email for critique, at your leisure?
