Neuron-assembly activity patterns evolved to become tingles {tingle} {pre-qualities} {semi-qualities}, which later differentiated to become sense qualities. All sensations share an underlying vibrational state.
predecessor
Physical quantities have real-number amounts and have units, such as volts or frequencies, which may have directions. Physical quantities occur at one time and place. Physical intensities use only energy, area, direction, and time. Nerve impulses and neuron-assembly activity patterns involve physical quantities. Sense systems use neuron-assembly activity patterns.
tingles
At first, all senses had only intensities. Evolution then began to work on neuron-assembly activity patterns to make kinetic effects and overall oscillations. These abstract vibrations are tingles. Tingles are non-local. Tingles have intensities. Tingles are the beginnings of sense qualities. Tingles are vibrations of new abstract physiological variables that combine physical quantities. Different senses have different vibration types. Within a sense, different sense qualities have the same vibration type but different frequencies and harmonic ratios.
Tingles derive from neuron transient vibrations after stimuli. Neuron assemblies can combine inputs to make microphonic neuron signals [Saul and Davis, 1932], with frequencies up to 800 Hz.
Semi-qualities are undifferentiated sense qualities and have semi-feeling and semi-meaning. Tingles are between neuron physiology and sense qualities. Like neuron signals, tingles can vary in wavelength, frequency, frequency range, frequency distribution, amplitude, amplitude change rate, amplitude acceleration, intensity, phase, persistence after stimulus, direction, rotation, orientation, pitch, roll, yaw, and wobble. Waves can have different forms, such as longitudinal, transverse, polarized, spherical, and ellipsoidal. Like sense qualities, tingle semi-qualities have semi-time, semi-space, and semi-intensity.
antecessor
As tingles evolved, they differentiated into sense qualities with intensities. Sensations have no real-number amounts and have no units. Rather, sensations have relative amounts and sense qualities. Sensations combine intensity amount and unit into a post-tingle. Tingle frequency, spatial extent, and amplitude differentiated to make different sense types. Within a sense type, post-tingles vary and make sense qualities, such as red.
