The article is focused on discussing the new methodological approach from the terms of Synergetic Historicism, to the study on specifics of reproducing digital culture and its influence on individual and collective consciousness. The results of the investigation in question based on the Method of Dual Oppositions and the Law of Self-Organizing Social and Cultural Ideals, showed that the global digital transformation toward substituting the biological human brain for Artificial Intelligence threaten Humanity not only with the irreversible transformation of human nature, but also with the end of Human Era. The results of the analysis as deconstructive implications for the reproduction of digital culture in recent years indicate that the selected path contributes to deepen the divide between digital culture and the subjects of reproduction, as well as the worsening of the problem, which was initially focused digitization process.

Before me there are only two men in all creation who did the cosmic phenomena analysis. The first is Galileo who discovered the earth is spherical the second is Isaac Newton who discovered the laws of gravitation. After that, God closed on the nature for three hundred years. So I am not a discoverer but I am an analyzer of cosmic phenomena. The heart affects the human brain with electromagnetic waves, and not, as medical science deceived us, the brain controls the heart with brain electricity. The sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves do not send the electricity from the brain to the heart but the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves receive electromagnetic waves from the heart to the brain and all the body of human nature.

AbstractWe agree with Christiansen & Chater (C&C) that language processing and acquisition are tightly constrained by the limits of sensory and memory systems. However, the human brain supports a range of cognitive functions that mitigate the effects of information processing bottlenecks. The language system is partly organised around these moderating factors, not just around restrictions on storage and computation.

The major structural lesions of the human brain during aging and in Alzheimer disease (AD) are the neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and the senile (neuritic) plaque. Although these fibrous alterations have been recognized by light microscopists for almost a century, detailed biochemical and morphological analysis of the lesions has been undertaken only recently. Because the intraneuronal deposits in the NFT and the plaque neurites and the extraneuronal amyloid cores of the plaques have a filamentous ultrastructure, the neuronal cytoskeleton has played a prominent role in most pathogenetic hypotheses.The approach of our laboratory toward elucidating the origin of plaques and tangles in AD has been two-fold: the use of analytical protein chemistry to purify and then characterize the pathological fibers comprising the tangles and plaques, and the use of certain monoclonal antibodies to neuronal cytoskeletal proteins that, despite high specificity, cross-react with NFT and thus implicate epitopes of these proteins as constituents of the tangles.

Over the past few years, several laboratories have demonstrated that changes in local neuronal activity associated with human brain function can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy. Using these methods, the effects of sensory and motor stimulation have been observed and cognitive studies have begun. These new methods promise to make possible even more rapid and extensive studies of brain organization and responses than those now in use, such as positron emission tomography.Human brain studies are enormously complex. Signal changes on the order of a few percent must be detected against the background of the complex 3D anatomy of the human brain. Today, most functional MR experiments are performed using several 2D slice images acquired at each time step or stimulation condition of the experimental protocol. It is generally believed that true 3D experiments must be performed for many cognitive experiments. To provide adequate resolution, this requires that data must be acquired faster and/or more efficiently to support 3D functional analysis.
