A neural dynamics that controls behavior of an embodied agent has to be coupled through sensory-motor systems to a real-world environment. Thus, temporal continuity and gradedness of the dynamics of the perceptual, motor, and cognitive processes is to be considered. In the face of the inherent variability of these processes, stability is a necessary property of the behaviorally relevant neural states. But stability is in conflict with sequentiality, because transitions from one action to the next one require that a neural state decays and gives way to the next relevant neural state. In my...
