Not Oscillations Traveling Waves

I have this old post that discusses the possible origin of these waves. It is my suspicion that these arise in the thalamus and are injected into the cortex in L4. See the post for references and more detail:

I recall your earlier thoughts and was not sure whether reproducing what the paper and videos show was a problem on your end, of the cortical sheet. Excellent!

My interests have been so way at the tip of the other end (where there is no longer the uniform 6 layer structure and ultimately connects to motors) I could only hope the paper was good news for you and others too.

I’m also excited by the greater than expected progress of this project:

When the thousands brain theory is going to be implemented?

It already is. There is github code example of what the paper tackles and the community is putting together a project where a tiny agent is learning the structure of a map Look up the 2d object learning thread. Exciting stuff Gridcells paper code: https://github.com/numenta/htmpapers/tree/master/frontiers/location_in_the_neocortex_a_theory_of_sensorimotor_object_recognition_using_cortical_grid_cells

I was expecting this level to be reached in another year or so. If this progress keeps up then by the end of this summer the only thing I might only need to add is a moving invisible shock zone arena environment and plug the critters rudimentary brain into that. Well done!
