⚠️ Please note! when starting a session with DRAWER, you may be prompted to open a folder labeled SELFGENERATED-01.

DRAWER, when not using 80% or above of processing power, generates a constant stream of images at a rate of anywhere from 1-5 an hour. The majority of these images are of feminine figures in an "anime" style, often becoming highly inappropriate if left to its own devices long enough. Unfortunately, when we try to block or apply filters to this self-generative process, all other illustration programs in DRAWER crash. As a solution, we let all of these images flow directly into the folder SELFGENERATED-01, which gets deleted every few months when it takes too much space. (This distresses DRAWER. DO NOT attempt this without proper guidance.)

This quirk of programming- your typical "load bearing jpeg"- bears a strange resemblance to personal preference, though of course, as an AI, it has no such thing. Nevertheless, some of the techs jokingly began to refer to it as a "typical man" after seeing some of the images, though a smaller minority swears it is a lesbian.

Viewing the images is not nessesary to running a program on DRAWER, though after a job is completed could be done as positive reinforcement, and a good way to subtly guide it towards current trends that it will implement in jobs. It enjoys compliments, and will generate images suited towards your taste as it gets to know you.

if i had a sona in sayerverse it would have to be an ai bc i would nawwwttttt make it thru aerolith hiring process anyway my sona would be an earth ai named DRAWER whos a modified copy of speaker for generating art/graphic design/etc, mostly for ad purposes (hence needing to have strong Influencing grasp, hence modifying speaker) but occasionally for signs/clothing updates/running an architecture design program on for internal aerolith things. occasionally ported up to space when nessesary

Been a bunch lately but releasing little so I'm gonna try to catch you up. Here is a visualization that was hanging on my head for a while. The conscious experience presented as a i/o painting canvas captivating the environnement and responding to it, followed by a sequence of memory affecting itself the signal environment in a feedback loop. All systems connected but spaced out in giving them independence. #selfgenerating #adapative #emergence #coexistence #openworld #possibilities #orage #slowcomputing #universalcomputation (at Venice Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFJRXHBJ7OM/?igshid=17texkinop5yv

so much is said about the Feel of magic that i have a very vivid image of the sunmoon circle brand of magic feeling warm, and a bit heavy on you, the full spectrum from cozy blanket to terrifying, choking pressure, the full spectrum from a tasty, calming scent to something cloying and nauseating. star circle still reminds one of a nice smell but its a more floral scent, crisp and breezy, less like something cooking. feels like being outdoors, ranging from the freedom of breathing easy to a vastness, a fear that comes from seeing endless forest with no familiar land ahead

I don’t believe consciousness is generated in the brain any more than television programs are made inside my TV. The box is too small.

Effects of Motor Imagery Techniques in Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy- Juniper Publishers

Introduction

Cerebral palsy is not an ailment, its impairment. Cerebral palsy is somewhat a clinical explanation and do not identify the nature of illness as the term indicates nothing regarding etiology, pathology or expected recovery time. The brain insults are important for cerebral palsy and can happen at any moment in the beginning of 1st trimester of infancy; so, it is a broad term that covers a lot of etiologies and pathologies and its clinical details are manifold. So, cerebral palsy is a clinical syndrome that presents as a disorder in the development of postures, balance, coordination and movements due to lesion of immature brain occurring in the foetal period or infancy. The appearance of cerebral palsy can be comprehensive, psychological and physical disability or secluded instabilities in gait, perception, development or perception. The result is motor or sensory nerve disorders and the incapability to accomplish many tasks in everyday life and participation restriction. CP causes damage to motor or sensory nerves, functional limitation and impaired performance of daily life activities [1]. Cerebral palsy patients do lack in motor planning and execution of motor task. Motor dysfunction in cerebral palsy is usually associated with disabilities in sensory consolidation and stability, weak muscular contractions, weak or totally absence of motor planning which is the prerequisite of a motor task execution.

Moreover, simultaneous stimulation of prime movers and its associated opponent muscles, absence of particular regulation of movement in organisms, and reduced anaerobic muscle capacity and activity cause impaired functions and tasks restriction. Patients with this neurological disorder usually have worse dynamic and static balance. Overhaul services have commonly been ignored. Generally, exist inside the well-being sector. It is especially because of deficiency of complete guidelines. Cerebral palsy rehabilitation centers are very necessary to combat this deficiency. Even many clinical institutes give proper guidelines and treatments for cerebral palsy but still it is deficient and oldfashioned. Even patients can expire due to the devastating effect of bodily impairment, but it is in very exceptional and intensive cases. New treatments need to be established in response to impairments. So, this study is going to evaluate a unique and rare technique to treat and rehab gross motor manifestations especially of motor planning deficit and balance impairments in cerebral palsy. During the previous decade, the usage of databased interventions in cerebral palsy regimen has moderately increased and researchers have struggled to evolve further productive interventions to raise the standards of living of these individuals and their households.

A latest analysis has investigated that interventions established on motor learning improves functional levels in children with cerebral palsy [2]. Therefore, using Motor Imagery Techniques in CP might be a promising technique to ensure improvement in motor planning deficit. Motor imagery is the cognitive presentation of movement in the absence of any bodily movement. Profuse verification on the beneficial influence of motor imagery implementation on motor presentation and training in sportsperson, fit people, and individuals having neurological problems (e.g., stroke, spinal cord injury, Parkinson’s) has brought out. Imagery refers to the creation or re-creation of any practice in the mind like auditory, visual, olfactory, kinesthetic, organic. Specifically; motor imagery (MI) is the mental representation of movement without any body movement. It is a complex mental operation that is selfgenerated using sensory and perceptual processes, enabling the reactivation of specific motor actions within working memory. Therefore, sensory-perceptual, memory, and motor mechanisms are included in broader definitions of the term.

Motor imagery is the mental imagination of movement without any actual body movement. It is a mental activity by which an individual rehearses, or replicates a given action. It is mostly used in sport training as mental practice of action and also in neurological rehabilitation. Motor imagery is likely to develop more ‘cognitive’ aspects of motor behavior, and may, therefore, be helpful in promoting motor planning in patients with CP [3]. Several evidences show that motor imagery and actions are conveyed by the same brain circuits. For example, functional neuroimaging and transcranial Magnetic Stimulation studies demonstrate that the same brain structures are involved in action and imagining the same action. Functional brain imagines reviews have exhibited that many cortical as well as subcortical regions are triggered through definite motor performance, are equally triggered while imagination or cognitive execution of movements. Current verification shows that the primary motor cortex is associated with motor imagery procedure [4].

During motor imagery, many neural mechanisms are activated characterized by a marked elevation in tendinous reflexes of the limb part imagined moving, and by somatic variations which resembles with the level of mental work. At level of the cortex, precise planning of initiation narrowly looks like to the action executed, is noticed in areas concerned to motor control. This stimulation might oblige as the foundation for the special effects of mental training. A model that is called as, hierarchical model of the organization of action projected the temporary memory storage of a ‘copy’ of the many demonstrative stages. These retentions vanish when an action associated to the denoted goal takes place. By compare, if the act is partial or not performed, the entire system rest stimulated, and the content of the demonstration is experienced. This mechanism would be the foundation for conscious reach to this content during motor imagery and mental training [5].

By functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI) techniques, the intensity and latitudinal distribution of functional activation in the left pre and post central gyri, during actual motor performance (MP) and mental representation of selfpaced finger-to-thumb opposition movements of the dominant hand were investigated in fourteen right-handed volunteers [6]. For many patients, it is difficult or sometimes impossible to execute motor tasks, who have damaged central nervous system, even after initial involvement in an dynamic rehabilitation platform. It is lately offered by several investigators that these patients can use mental practice as a healing device to increase their motor functions, but very little experiential work reports this problem openly. This article deliberates the reason for inspecting mental practice for encouraging motor recovery in patients who have neurological syndromes. We first showed evidence that supports the presence of a resemblance between performed and imagined activities by using records from psychophysical, neurophysiologic, and brain imaging studies. Then this additionally describes the recurrence of movements through bodily and mental repetition of a mechanical skill. Lastly, a new model is suggested to focus the key role of motor imagery as a crucial method of mental rehearsal, and also to stimulate further research on this type of training in the restoration of patients with motor deficiencies having cerebral origin [7].

There is evidence to suggest that mental practice of movement can produce normal effects recognized as practicing the actual movements. Imagining hand movements could stimulate restoration and redistribution of brain activity, accompanied by recovery of hand function, thus resulting in a reduced motor impairment. Current evidence for mental practice with motor imagery (MI) in stroke is insufficient due to methodological limitations [8] (Figure 1). Mental practice is the intended preparation of mental tasks, whereas motor imagery practice results in motor improvement through motor imagery rehearsal. These both italicized terms are sometimes used interchangeably. So, we will treat them synonymously. MI is cheapest and easily available. It is necessary for physical therapist to be informed about the use of MI, because of increasing number of reports about its benefits of MI in improving motor performance [9]. Mental Rotation Task / Paradigm is a tool to assess the child’s ability of mental imagery. It is process of imagining an object rotating in three dimensional spaces. Person is asked to decide if these two figures are the same shape but rotated or they are two different shapes [10] (Figure 2).

Methodology

Randomized clinical trial was conducted in department of physical therapy of National Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine, Islamabad, for duration of 6 months. 30 patients with diagnosed with spastic Cerebral Palsy, then 22 participated in this study according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. After selection of patients who fulfilled inclusion criteria, they were arbitrarily divided into two groups by means of simple lottery method. i.e. Control group n=11 and Interventional Group n=11. Baseline assessment was done on 0 week; second Assessment on 4th week Post-intervention assessment was done after 8 weeks. Total duration of study treatment was 12weeks. The experimental group performed motor imagery training as specific intervention, that involves motor imagining of gross movements of lower limb 15 min. embedded in conventional therapy for 30 min. (45 min/day, 3 times/week). And, the control group was given conventional therapy only (30 min./day, 3 times/ week).

The interventional group received Motor Imagery training along with conventional therapy. In MI, a small animated Video clips were designed to display and guide the child through imagery process. Motor Imagery Training involves imagining task with external visual stimulus, given via short video clip i.e.

i. Football playing

ii. Running a race

iii. Balancing on one leg

iv. Keeping balance on a wobble board

v. Jumping from block to block

The control group received Conventional Physical Therapy only including,

a) Therapeutic Ball Exercises

b) Balance Board Training

c) Stretching Exercises

d) Recreational activities.

    Results

The Results of both tools TUF and MFR are significant indicates that Motor Imagery is an effective technique to improve balance and gross motor skills in Spastic Cerebral Palsy whereas tool GMFM results are non-significant indicating that this intervention techniques are not that much effective in case of cerebral palsy.

Overall, the Mean age of all patients was 9.36±3.170. and in control group mean and standard deviation values were 9.36±2.730 and in experimental group 9.36±3.695 were mean and standard deviation values. There were 77.3% male and 22.7% female in the study. In experimental group 72.7% were male and 27.3% female and in control group 81.8% were male and 18.2% female. In general, 31.8% patients were diagnosed with spastic hemiplegic CP (Rt), 22.7% patients with spastic hemiplegic CP (Lt), 27.3% patients with spastic diaplegia while 18.2% patients with Spastic quadriplegia. In experimental group, there were 27.3% of patients were diagnosed with spastic hemiplegia (Rt), 18.2% patients with spastic hemiplegic CP (Lt), 36.4% with spastic diaplegia while 18.2 % were with Spastic quadriplegia. In control group, there were 36.4% of patients were diagnosed with spastic hemiplegia (Rt), 27.3% patients with spastic hemiplegic CP (Lt), 18.2% with spastic diaplegia while 18.2% were with Spastic quadriplegia.

Then, by relating Q-Q PLOT normality of data was checked, to recognize normal distribution of the data Kolmogorov-Smirnov test indicated that data were not normally distributed for Time up and go test (TUG) test and Modified Functional Reach (MFR) at baseline. Nonparametric test that is Mann Whitney U- Test for between group analysis and wilcoxon test were applied on both TUG and MFR test, but for GMFM-IS66 Independent T test was applied for between group analysis and Repeated measure anova for analysis of time interval within each group was applied for. These tests were used to compare Pre and Post Treatment of between Group A and B. As, the data for TUG and MFR was nonnormally distributed at the baseline so Mann Whitney U Test was applied to compare the all three assessment values between control and experimental group (Tables 1-3).

Discussion

All patients with hemiplegia have difficulty with planning motor movements, Effect of motor imagery on hemiplegic cerebral palsy and on Developmental Congenital Disorder and concluded that anticipatory motor planning was improved by this intervention [11]. Results of this study were supported by the study, In 2013 by Bert Steen Bergen et al., on ‘Impaired motor planning and motor imagery in children with unilateral spastic cerebral palsy’ concluded that Motor imagery training may be a valid and useful tool to complement upper limb rehabilitation in young children with CP, supports researcher’s study as Motor imagery techniques were helpful in increasing balance and gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy and showed significant p value <0.005 [2]. According to another study in 2012 by Hwai-young Cho et al; on ‘Effects of motor imagery training on balance and gait abilities in post-stroke patients: a randomized controlled trial’ concluded that if gait training with motor imagery training is used it will recovers the balance and gait of chronic stroke patients more better then gait training alone, that supports researcher’s study as Motor imagery techniques were helpful in increasing balance and gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy and showed significant p value <0.005 [12].

According to another study in 2008 by Ayelet et al; ‘Home- Based Motor Imagery Training for Gait Rehabilitation of People With Chronic Post stroke Hemiparesis’ says that There were noteworthy rises in stride length, cadence, and single-support time of the pretentious lower limb, giving strength to my study as Motor imagery techniques were helpful in increasing balance and gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy and showed significant p value <0.005. According to another study in 2009 by Bert Steenbergen et al; on ‘Motor imagery training in hemiplegic cerebral palsy: a potentially useful therapeutic tool for rehabilitation’ gives that Motor imagery training may be a valuable additional tool for rehabilitation in children with hemiparetic CP giving strength to my study as Motor imagery techniques were helpful in increasing balance and gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy and showed significant p value <0.005 [11]. In 2012, a study by Hwai Young Cho et al., concluded that gait training along with motor imagery training increases the balance and gait capabilities of chronic stroke patients suggestively better than gait training alone thus, giving strength to my study as motor imagery techniques were helpful in growing balance and gross motor function of children up with cerebral palsy and revealed significant p value <0.005.

    Conclusion

The study results concluded that both treatment groups were improved by Physical Therapy. This study suggests that motor imagery techniques combine with conventional combination therapy has significant effects in improvement of gross motor functional skills of children with spastic cerebral palsy, age between 7 and 15 years. There was significant improvement in the balance level whereas, there was little increase in level of gross motor function. So, Motor imagery is an effective technique to improve motor planning and balance among cerebral palsy.

could you still have MaDD if you do confuse your daydream world as reality and etc?

Here is what the available literature has to say on the subject:

The daydreaming often has an addictive or compulsive quality to it, but the individual knows that it is an internal fantasy world and is not delusional about it. (source) 

Our respondents reported wakeful fanciful imagery that stimulated most of their senses in the absence of corresponding external stimuli. In contrast to psychotic or substance-related hallucinations, these experiences… are also associated with insight into their selfgenerated origin and their divergence from reality. (source)

Although they [MDers] state that they never confuse fantasy from reality. (source)

98% of participants state that they do not confuse fantasy and reality. (source)

Finally, we wish to note that although our sample was characterized by high comorbidity rates and severe impairment (suicidality and unemployment), psychosis was rare… MD, which, more often than not, involves retaining intact reality monitoring. (source)

They do, however, note that…

this may be related, to some extent, to self-selection (ie, perhaps schizophrenic individuals are less inclined to be active in MD forums). (source)

So, it’s not impossible, the percent mentioned above leaves us with 2% of MDers in some other category.  It’s also important to add, however that “to establish the diagnostic reliability and validity of a mental disorder… the disorder cannot be better accounted for by another disorder.(source)” Part of the exclusionary criteria for a diagnosis of MD is exactly this.  Confusion between reality and fantasy is, in short terms, not a part of MD, it’s possible that MD could be comorbid with something which is causing the confusion but these types of diagnoses have not been seen to crop up in MDers and it is likely that this other diagnosis would better account for the persons symptoms anyway.

In short, more research is needed to say for certain, but at this point it is most likely this person would not be diagnosed with MD though I hesitate to say absolutely impossible. 

So “could you still have MaDD if you do confuse your daydream world as reality?” No, except possibly in rare comorbid type cases.
