BrainMaster Technologies — Perspectives in Neurofeedback — 2026 How Buckminster Fuller’s architectural insight illuminates the dynamic balance of brainwave rhythms — and what it means for neurofeedback practice. We

(composed by Claude Sonnet under the guidance of the author) (Thanks to Bill Brubaker for helpful discussions!) Fuller coined “tensegrity” (tensional integrity) to describe structures where isolated components under compression float within a continuous network of tension elements. The key insight is that stability doesn’t come from stacking rigid parts — it comes from the

(composed by Claude Sonnet under the guidance of the author) I. Wiener’s Intellectual Foundation Norbert Wiener (1894–1964) was one of the towering mathematical minds of the twentieth century, and his central insight was deceptively simple: information, feedback, and control are universal principles that apply equally to machines and living organisms. In his landmark 1948 book

Collura Ph.D., MSMHC, QEEG-D, BCN, LPCC-S (written entirely by the author – no AI was used) Original date of publication: 7/16/06 Applied Neurophysics is a label that applies to the interdisciplinary pursuit of an integrated understanding of the brain and mind. It incorporates a great deal of “old” science, but it is a

Thomas F. Collura, Ph.D., MSMHC, QEEG-D, BCN, LPCC-S (entirely written by the author – No AI!) Where are we headed? What is the future of the human experience? How do the previous 10, 100, 1000, or 100,000 years relate to our ongoing journey? In particular, where do consciousness, the brain, the mind, and neurofeedback fit

EEG as a Predictor of Medication Response:An Updated Review and Analysis Thomas F. Collura Original Paper: February 2012Updated: December 2025 (in collaboration with Claude.ai) Abstract This report examines the evidence that the human electroencephalogram (EEG) can be used to help predict medication response in clients with mental health concerns. This updated review incorporates research published

We have implemented a system that performs homomorphic deconvolution of resting EEG samples, using a built-in ICA, frequency-domain averaging, sLORETA, and source localization to deconvolve EEG rhythms into individual sources and patterns.  The signature captures the morphology of one “event” being produced by that brain source. The question being asked is, if the brain were

Symptoms, Disorders, Functions, and the NIH Research Domain Criteria There are historically two basic approaches to evaluation and treatment of mental and emotional disorders, and although they are in some conflict, it is possible to combine them to ensure best practices.  These are the disorder-oriented symptom-based approach, epitomized by the DSM-V and its associated practice

“The simplest type of breakdown exhibits itself as an oscillation in a goal-seeking process which appears only when that process is actively invoked.”   — Norbert Wiener (1988) The Human use of Human Beings: Cybernetics and Society”, p. 1163, Da Capo Press. Z-score neurofeedback (ZNF) is an advanced EEG-based biofeedback technique that uses real-time statistical comparisons
