Support material for some of the [http://www.vernon.eu/courses.htm courses] on my main website.   
CINDY stands for '''Ci'''rcular '''N'''etwork '''Dy'''namics. It is in its early state of development and is based on many other cognitive architectures, especially the iCub cognitive architecture which was never fully realizedThe long-term goal is to design and implement an emergent artificial cognitive system that builds on the principles of growth and development through circular causality, drawing on many of the principles of the fields of Enaction,  Systems Dynamics, and Second-order Cybernetics.
