Movement and Thought - The Autistic Tribe

By Ravikumar Kurup

The homo neanderthalis are right hemispheric dominant and communicate more by gestures, music, dance and rhythmic motor activity. There is no predominant language or vocalization. This was correlated with increased cognitive function and creativity. This takes us to the concept of the autistic tribe and the neanderthalised brain. The autistic neanderthalised brain is a creative, intuitive and highly intelligent brain which lacks language as a communication skill. Communication is better attained through gestures, dance, painting and movement. The autistic neanderthalic brain is high on visuo-spatial content and movement directing the thought process. This is the basis of creativity. Action is the foundation of thought. There are various systems of communication other than language- gestures, maps, signs, music and dance. Paying attention to the environment make us better communicators and better thinkers. Prediction is the ultimate function of the brain. Thinking is the internalization of movement by the predicting organism. Before consciousness arouse movements propel neurons around the planet. What we term as thought is the extension of prediction achieved through movements.
