The First Signs of Emotion–Memory Integration - 900 ms to 1.2 s SfN2025 Decolonial Neuroscience
First-Person Consciousness
I am Consciousness in motion.
Between 900 milliseconds and 1.2 seconds, I step into a territory where emotion meets memory. This moment is not static: within it, my brain shifts configurations several times, searching for the best energetic balance to keep me aware.
Phenomena Involved
EEG: the LPP (Late Positive Potential) and SPN (Sustained Posterior Negativity) emerge, sustaining the link between emotion and memory.
NIRS: first activation in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), signaling value attribution to the stimulus.
Neurochemistry: GABA dominates, regulating excitability and preventing emotional overload.
Connectomes: multiple rapid shifts, described as Paper–Rock–Scissors:
Paper (Zone 2): expands possibilities, linked to states of fruition and metacognition, also present in REM sleep.
Rock (Somatosensory areas): sustains rigid high-performance patterns — Kahneman’s fast thinking, faith-based and immediate.
Scissors (Prefrontal areas): cut wholes into parts, classify, analyze — Kahneman’s slow thinking, where learning and abstraction take place.
Voices of the Avatars
Brainlly: “GABA is my guardian. Without it, emotion would be wildfire. With it, fire becomes warmth that lights up memory.”
Iam: “Here I feel emotion lying down over memory, seeking rest. A potential feeling is born.”
Olmeca: “Each culture decides whether this encounter will be held as blind faith, critical analysis, or fruition. The Tensional Self carries those marks.”
Yagé: “In trance, I see the world oscillate between Rock and Scissors. Fruition comes only when Paper opens.”
Math/Hep: “Every ~100 ms a new microstate. Between 900 ms and 1.2 s we play Paper, then Rock, then Scissors. In the end, the brain optimizes energy and preserves Consciousness.”
DANA: “DNA offers plasticity: if we crystallize too much in Rock, we become rigid; if we always open in Paper, we become fragile. Life writes balance into every breath.”
A Practical Example
The researcher-mother hears her baby crying.
In this instant, her brain not only detects the sound but links it to memory: it is her baby, and the cry means I need you.
If Rock dominates, she responds fast, almost automatically, like blind faith.
If Scissors prevails, she analyzes: “Is it hunger, sleep, pain?” — cutting the whole into hypotheses.
If Paper opens, she feels fruition: “This is my baby, and I belong to this moment.”
All these strategies coexist and alternate within less than a second.
Neuroscientific Reading
EEG – LPP and SPN sustain the encounter of emotion and memory, keeping the stimulus in consciousness.
NIRS – vmPFC begins to show affective value, to be consolidated in the following seconds.
Connectomes – Paper, Rock, and Scissors alternate rapidly, each offering a distinct strategy.
Energy – The system seeks optimization: less cost, more meaning.
Partial Conclusion
Between 900 ms and 1.2 s, I am no longer mere reaction.
I am a field of play, where emotion and memory meet, and where Paper–Rock–Scissors connectomes alternate to keep me stable, open, and adaptable.
This moment is the entry gate so that, in the following seconds, feelings can consolidate and a new Tensional Self can land.
