Hypothesis: what you see with your eyes closed, the lights you can see in the dark — that is not random noise, it is computation.
The visual cortex may be used to compute arbitrary programs given the passage of time: an image can encode a spectrogram, for example, and pattern recognition applied to shapes in the spectrogram may yield at least some useful sound information (given the "right" neural networks)
Arbitrary programs could be stored and replayed in the visual cortex by e.g. evolving cellular automata or a neural network that can simulate them, which would seem to yield universal computation as per Wolfram et al
Hypothesis: there is much in the nature of [[light]] we still do not know.
"A hypothesis (plural hypotheses) is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it."
"A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research, in a process beginning with an educated guess or thought."
