Fauceir Theory of Memory

When memory is considered a fauceir the conclusions listed on this page can be drawn.

The Fauceir Model

Memory a Fauceirs

As a fauceir consists of a set of sub-fauceirs, memory can be considered a container of pieces of memory. The picture below shows a model that contains pieces of different size, shape, and color that stand for different sub-fauceirs. Each of them can be considered a container themselves, so again with greater magnification each of these contains will give the same picture as the large container here.

Next, as every fauceir has limited life-span. each of the sub-fauceirs will disappear from time to time and new fauceirs will replace them.

Instable Memory

Instable memory, forgetfulness, can be understood as a loss of a piece of memory that disturbs the inner structure of a container.

After such a loss the memory is repaired, of course, or the whole container will be gone. The repair yields a new content after such a repair the container will never be the same, for the better or the worse.

Stable Memory

Stable memory is actually what we consider memory. In the stable memory loss the gap is filled by the same piece as resided at this place before.

Improved Memory

Improved memory is part of a learning process. The gap is replaced by smaller pieces of memory. Phen one of these smaller pieces disappears the risk that that would cause major disturbances in the container becomes less likely.

Conclusions

1. As always in Evolution (see the rule of decontextualization) the state with small pieces is more stable.
2. Memory can get more stable only if we forget
