Abstract

The paper discusses current neurophysiological approach to higher cognitive functions in humans and tries to show its fundamental errors. It illustrates how important forethought and a philosophical foundation for interdisciplinary re­search is regarding the processes of brain and mind mechanisms. Unification of the efforts of various scientific domains provides qualitatively new knowledge. Hypernets and cognitoms being the top of human evolution can not be studied by multiplicating similar data revealed in other species. Brain and mind should be studied by interconnections of natural sciences, arts and humanities. Cognitive sciences will never experience sharp paradigmatic increase without looking at the problem from a different perspective – in the context of the products of the human genius. Human mind is not a Turing machine, and its principles are not based on stimulus-reaction scheme. Rather is demonstrates the principles of Barocco: it extracts faces and objects, revealing specific and unusual features, in is not linear and stable. The brain is not just processing information – rather it creates it. It is wrong to study neuronets to understand the mind.
