Interesting recent article:
http://www.kurzweilai.net/the-brains-visual-data-compression-algorithm

"“However, we have now demonstrated that the visual cortex suppresses redundant 
information and saves energy by frequently forwarding image differences,” 
similar to methods used for video data compression in communication technology."

I understand that a Region can send two types of data up the hierarchy, either:
  A) new dynamic unrecognized pattern data, or
  B) recognized static pattern "names".

I wonder if this is related to what they are seeing, instead of "compression"?

Thanks,
Brev
