Memories are stigmergic notes left by past versions of self; communication between temporal slices of the same agent analogous to lateral inter-agent communication.

Concepts (2)
concept
- Cognitive glueextendsThe mechanisms that bind together composite agents—memories are proposed as one key type of cognitive glue that reifies selves.
- SelfletsimplementsLevin's model of continuous cognition as series of frames, each ~100-300ms thick; each Selflet is a temporal agent separated from others by time.
