Morphogenesis of the brain

The morphogenesis of the brain and nervous system is described in great detail in various papers, but this post ignores specific details of the construction and simplifies for clarity by concentrating only on the flow of energy needed to achieve such a complex feat.

The following are assumed:

• That energy is conserved i.e. neither created nor destroyed
• The laws of electrodynamics hold
• The existence of electrodynamic vortex structures as a necessary consequence of such laws

Development of the brain

Pause and think before watching the video of the genesis of the brain of a zebrafish. Try to predict what you will see. Expected is that maybe a small brain stem acts as a ‘seed’ which blossoms outwards similar to the growth of a cauliflower or a cumulus cloud; development is bottom-up as the large scale brain is created from small scale cells.

The surprise is that nothing of the sort happens and instead what we appear to see is that a nebulous mass of particles suddenly self-organises into a brain-like shape, with an overall global organisation actually preceding the development of the finer details.

The brain seemingly does not arise from the organisation of cells, but the cells arise from the way the brain organises energy and matter.

Centripetal organisation

The first thing we see is that ‘matter’ starts to move towards the centre of the brain in a double vortex pattern. Now simple molecules cannot decide to do this by themselves and so some overall organisational principle is in play. Moreover, any movement of matter necessitates the presence of some sort of force. The movement is centripetal and so the forces are centripetal.

The solution for this is an electromagnetic double vortex acting as a morphogenic field. The vortices form within the skull cavity and matter is drawn inwards in a similar manner to that of a tornado. The difference here is that the vortices are electromagnetic field vortices instead of moving wind vortices. An electromagnetic gradient is created between the circumference of the vortex and its centre whereupon particles are drawn inwards according to their charge structure.

Top-down organisation

After the initial accumulation of matter towards the centre of each hemisphere, shapes begin to appear and matter is organised into tissue. The mass takes on the appearance of an actual brain.

‘Flow’ in vortex systems is from the outside to the inside and from large scale to small scale. The structure becomes fractal-like, with smaller and smaller vortices appearing at each level and continued centripetal energy flow and organisation.

The idea that the smaller details appear before the global shape of the organ now sounds unlikely. Any manufacturing at the cellular level needs a certain amount of raw material and a reliable flow of energy. Moreover, in such systems, the energy flows from the larger scale to the smaller. It therefore follows that the construction of the smaller scale structures depends upon the prior organisation of a global vortex system. The assembly of the global vortex must therefore precede the manufacture of any of the cells that emerge from it.

Organisation and energy flow are therefore top down according to theory, and the theory is supported by the observations.

Morphogenesis of the nervous system

Another remarkable video shows the development of the nervous system within a zebrafish embryo.

• Nerves seem to grow spontaneously with little guidance
• A glow near the growing tip indicates superfluous energy here
• Freely moving entities (top right) are continually spinning, indicating the presence of vortex fields

The growing tip of each nerve emits light. Light is dissipative energy and therefore not organisational by itself. The emission light therefore serves as a waste disposal mechanism. Energy accumulates at the ends of the nerves, is used to manufacture the next section of tube and any excess is dissipated as light.

The question, then, is how does all this energy arrive at the growing tip? Sveral options come to mind:

• It is already there, ready for use
• It accumulates in real time around the nerve
• It is supplied along the nerve

In the first two cases, a centripetal accumulation of energy is implied. All the energy gathers at the required place, somehow guided by organisational forces. The fact that accumulation is centripetal implies some vortex system is at work.

In the third case, the energy travels along the nerve, presumably originating in the brain. Researchers have found that the speed of nervous conduction depends upon the thickness of the myelin sheath and this in turn suggests that conduction occurs within the myelin sheath. This is consistent with the idea that energy is conducted along nerves in the form of electromagnetic ring vortices, with most of the field movement being magnetic and occurring within the (electrically insulating) myelin sheath with a concomitant movement of electric field along the (electrically conductive) central tissue which is interpreted as the main ‘current’.

The twin vortex system of the brain is still acting as an energy accumulator at this point and supplies the energy required for the formation of the nervous system. Ring vortices travel along existing neurons to their end where sufficient energy accumulates to create or assemble new tissue. Excess energy is dissipated as light into the general vortex system whence it is recycled back inwards to where it will be needed. Ring vortices are easily guided by the ambient electromagnetic field gradients and thus the nervous system takes the form ‘intended’ by the global morphogenetic field.

The face of a frog

In this short clip, and electric field outlines the structure of a tadpole’s face even before the cells have started to differentiate, so confirming that it is the field that is the organisational element and that such organisation is top-down.
