Wow, pretty cool! For such visualizations, I think the tension is how to see the big picture while not missing the details... these renderings are of course missing all the tiny features which are doing profound computation. In the brain a similar tension seems to be

present: a single neurons, properly stimulated, can flip the state of the whole brain -- and when a seizure begins, it seems to be because a last neuron finally "gave up" and let the seizure begin.

Best,

Ed
