again, based on high-level "cognitive demand." Deacon's intuition is similar to the one that led Edelman to propose Neural Darwinism tEcle931, and Calvin and Bickerton IC13001 to pose the notion of mind as a "Darwin Machine". The latter have given plausible neural mechanisms ("Darwin Machines") for sy
