Alain BerthozLa Simplexité

Simplexité, as I understand it, is the set of solutions found by living organisms so that, despite the complexity of natural processes, the brain can prepare the act and projects its consequences. These solutions are simplifying principles that make it possible to process information or situations, taking into account past experience and anticipating the future. These are not cartoons, shortcuts or summaries. These are new ways of posing problems, sometimes at the cost of a few detours, to arrive at actions faster, more elegant, more efficient.” (Alain Berthoz)
