 1.1.3   MEMORY TYPES, or the inherent Degrees of  ITS organization

     From the point of view of Living Nature Evolution, and understanding the "MEMORY" as a definitely organized level of Environment and Organism data processing and storage we have identified seven inherent types of "ITS" organization:

The Degree of  MOTORIC nature - type of memory about the Movements of Living Organism, brightly distinguished with the inherent ability of reproduction of those similar to Itself. (See Fig. 2)

     This memory type "rests" within Human Beings in the range from corporally realized genetic codes of parental inherence till rationalized mentally sane speech and actions in their creative life. IT stores data about biological and emotional, social and individual behaviour of the relevant Organism. Life and communication between people are impossible without Movement. Growth, sex, mimics, gesticulations, speech, labour - all these are the MOTORICS products  generated by ITS direct and indirect Activities!

The Degree of SENSORY nature is the type of memory dealing with Reactions of an Organism to the impacts produced by outer world, other organisms and Itself; distinguished by its ability to adaptate to various conditions of existence. (See Fig. 2)

     Generally speaking, it is a memory about the Organism response reactions development storage processes handling the eventual impacts produced by the Environment of Its formation. Diverting slightly from the direct subject of this Chapter we shall undertake a brief excursion into the processes of Terrain Flora and Fauna Evolution.

     The first from the unicellular protozoan on Earth is still common nowadays amoeba, which is able to change feasibly the parries of its jelly-like body altering the movement direction and shape configuration subject to the location of the identified food. No nervous system presents here, but Feeling is already obvious. As we proceed from unicellular to multicellulars organisms we can see the cells differentiation based on the principle of "sharing labour" within the life supporting activities. These activities are attributable for the development of THIS memory type. IT exists due to respective specialization of physical and chemical factors of intracellular response to the impacts from Outer Environment. As the Evolution of Organisms advanced the first glimpses of nervous system emerged represented primarily in one-dimensional (strict beam-oriented type) organization of substantiated tissues. Next stage witnesses structural changes in these tissues two-dimensional ("planar-oriented") reflection system of surrounding Nature emerges. For further development of Living forms a more flexible response for changing condition of existence was demanded. Nerve system organization becomes tripartite ("volume-oriented"). It enhanced optimisation within vital activities of Organisms. The consequent steps undertaken by Evolution resulted into formation of four and even more dimensional organization of eventual Corporal links with different conditions of Its life processing. Now we shall return to explanation of the newly introduced term of   SENSUAL TYPE of MEMORY. We shall start form giving a definition to emotions. "EMOTIONS /from Latin - disturb, worry, excite/ - are the subjective reactions of humans and animals to the impact of internal and external stimulus's. The feelings are the top products of emotions". (S. E. D. 1985 ) In our case the sense of the FEELINGS category substantially expands due to linking them with the sensual charge of a more "biological" category of "perception". It enables to identify borders within which THIS type of Human memory operates from primitive temperature, humidity and feeding-up balance control to such a "sacral" unique  human values as love forever, dedication to native land and to ideals common for entire humanity. Sorrow, offence, pain, joy, grief and heat, happiness, health and laughter are the FEELINGS known and common to everybody!

The Degree of IMAGINARY nature is the memory type dealing with the Shapes of the affecting Environment in the interaction of  Their parts, which is attributable to the process of illustrative comparison and; is brightly distinguished by its ability to orientate in space and distance within the spheres of ITS application. (See Fig. 2)

     The scope of influence encompassed by THIS memory type extends from a mere differing of light and darkness, their shades and colours to the "vast endless ocean" of the fantastic dreams and the "highest peaks" of creative imagination of scientists, writers, artists and musicians. One must beware a primitivized approach that the sense of vision only is the very "Imaginary" memory type itself. Vision only provides the starting data to develop THIS degree of Natural Reflection organization. The vivid colours of sun and forests at dawn, emerald grass of Alpine meads and transparent christality of the glassier waters, azure depths beneath and over and flamboyant tropical palms in the evening, tanned faces of cheering friends and ligatures of ancient manuscripts, snow-white chalked formulae of the class blackboard and funny littler mathematician nearby, parents waiting to hear from you and children striving into highly authomatized future and so on and so forth via the cinematographic, virtual  images and Fantasy lands towards the prominent future of succession!!!

Degree of LOGICAL nature is the memory type handling the  Sequences of Events experienced by the Organism; it is prominently distinguished by the strict order of casual and consequential regulations of the Events' emergence and with the ability to define the stability intervals inherent to these processes. (See Fig. 2)

     To put any frames for SUCH an organization of life activities is rather different, but "attempt pays for it" and the elementary logical principles will assist in understanding the essence and effect of this area. In a brief but explainable form they are rather simple if we use common operators  AND, OR, NOT. It means that IF the linking moment of casual chain of the occurring Events are connected by EITHER OF THE THREE mentioned operators, we are dealing with work  of LOGICAL memory type. ITS scope of action is determined by a strict continuity of logical chains consisting of ANDs, ORs and NOTs providing always the incompatibility of their simultaneous application in any combinations. You have nothing to do in any society without logics. The others will bee immediately annoyed by lack of education, naivety or even extravagancy, since most life situation require logically strict sequence of evident conclusions e.g. "the Sun rises from East and the sunset is at West"; "at day or at night"; "fish is not a bird, a hen is not a human", etc.

The Degree of the AIMED nature is the Organism memory type dealing with the implementation  Structures of the experienced Events; it is prominently distinguished by the optimal "LOGICAL" operations selected from possible alternatives and the ability to outline the temporal and dimensional requirements to achieve a particular aim. (See Fig. 2)

     THIS organizational degree of the Living conceals the initial sources of Human mind. It is Its self-preoccupied determination which achieves the immensely vast spaces of Universe! But the "fixations space" of such an incredibly vast volumes of data massifs is still identifiable. "It" partially displays in a usage of rather simple words such as "Phenomenon", "Essence", "Link" and those similar to them. Sure they are not so substantial as "the chair" or "the bench" which are "logically" clear and can be implemented in quite realistic images. These words are harder to handle with since each and any of them may be "stickled" where you may wish. To interpret the multi-semantic essence of these words we may involve here a mathematical category of Sequence of Natural Integer Figures:  1, 2, 3,4,... plus-infinity". We shall label it as the first infinity and go on with  further counting in infinities - 1st infinity, 2nd infinity,... infinities infinity. And the last thing is known among mathematicians as "Aleph-Zero". Further we shall try to satisfy ourselves with the provision stating that the organization extent of the AIMING memory is formed by means of mastering structural order of data infinity in Natural Events. It enables the Organism to use structurally definite Informativity of infinite processes matching in principle the "Aleph-Zero" definition. Any desire of the human head owner generates a larger, or smaller aim, which produces, respectively optimally planned set of tasks. The consequent achievement of the particular target depend already on the performance of a certain structure of particular actions, applied to achieve the Desired Aim in the most feasible manner!!!!

 The Degree of  MANAGEMENT nature is a Memory type dealing with  the Principles of Natural Phenomena organization;   is particularly distinguished by the opportunity to rationally forecast the progress of forthcoming Events and to bring alterations into both spacious and temporal Environment conditions within the sphere of ITS application. (See Fig. 2)

     It is this memory type which distinguishes Humans from the general mass of Mammalians and, in particular, the apes, so "similar" to them. Mathematical, physical and chemical analogues of THIS memory type functioning are so immense and complicated for popular description, that we shall undertake an attempt to describe the spheres of MANAGEMENT MEMORY application using simple examples. In human life this memory displays both in the aggregate building of a certain Enterprise or organizing any type of production activities and in the ability to "prophetical" and scientific discoveries or Future predictions.

We shall postpone to a better suitable time the description of the seventh WORLDOUTLOOKING type of Memory. Now we shall set to description of Reflex KIND formations mechanisms.
