N nodes are activated and exported to the OpenCog Atomspace • Recognition that a block is present is carried out, either by - PLN inference within OpenCog, drawing the conclusion that a block is present from the exported predicates, using ImplicationLinks comprising a working definition of a "block"

This architecture is not yet fully implemented, but is a straightforward extension of the current OpenCog architecture for processing data from game worlds IGEA08], and is scheduled for implementation later in 2013 in the course of a funded project invo

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 ("Da
