  In contrast to the critical brain hypothesis in which the brain tunes itself
to a critical point between $states$ of chaos and order, analysis of
Coordination Dynamics suggests that a vast repertoire of $coexisting$
$tendencies$ exists for regions of the brain to integrate and segregate at the
same time. Rather than teetering between order and randomness, the brain~mind
lives in an immense sea of metastability where it can create functional
information.
