I immediately thought of the classic prism glasses experiment. When vis field is shifted, targeting slowly changes over several attempts, not the instantaneous jump that could be achieved by calculation.

we have done lots of such experiments. Its like every time you do it you correct by 30% behaviorally. But attribution is to a broad range of things.

I get where you're coming from but I don't think sensorimotor adaptation and the plasticity around decision making / behavioural choices are ethologically similar.

Hmm. The whole brain is just a movement co-processor. And evolved as such.

Have you thought about the movement as an *internal* set of oscillators, like the movement in a watch? The oscillators get disturbed by changes in perception and changes in needs, and the brain is the supporting control structure that regulates against these disturbances.

sure. Popular idea in movement science. E.g. fig 1 in Churchland jPCA paper. But we have little evidence. Best is maybe the spinal cord work.

For motion loops it seems obvious, but how about the core of mental agency?

I don't know. Why should oscillations be central? For movement you can at least see them as vestigial, as being left from a time when all we did was slither.

I don't know either. But I suggest to let it simmer in the back of your mind for a while and see where it gets you.

I am oscillating between simmering and not simmering.

Also sleeping and waking, being hungry and being sated, etc.
