This article presents an idealized mathematical model of the cerebral cortex, focusing on the dynamical interaction of neurons. The author proposes a network architecture more consistent with neuroanatomy than in previous studies, borrows ideas from nonequilibrium statistical mechanics and calls attention to the fact that the brain is a large and complex dynamical system. The ideas proposed are illustrated with a realistic model of the visual cortex.
