In current models of brain function, especially those grounded in nonequilibrium thermodynamics, entropy production is often linked to metabolic efficiency, network dynamics, or cognitive complexity. However, some theoretical frameworks, such as Poznanski’s Dynamic Organicity Theory and Swenson’s proposed fourth law of thermodynamics, suggest that entropy gradients may play a functional role in guiding intentional behavior.

From the perspective of the Oscillatory Dynamics Transductive-Bridging Theorem (ODTBT), intentional path selection arises from the restructuring of informational redundancy through transductive oscillatory dynamics. The process of reducing uncertainty via phase alignment (e.g., through a TWIST threshold) is viewed as energetically coupled to entropy flux within functional systems.

This raises the question:Can measurable entropy production in the brain (e.g., via thermodynamic markers, neural fluctuations, or informational complexity) be correlated with the emergence of intention, particularly as it pertains to selecting among alternative actions or perceptual outcomes?

I’m particularly interested in:

• Experimental methods (e.g., EEG, fMRI, MSE) that quantify entropy flux in task-based cognitive states
• Theoretical or empirical studies linking entropy production to decision dynamics, spontaneous ordering, or predictive coding
• Models that treat intention not as post hoc interpretation, but as an emergent directive from thermodynamic asymmetry

Any references, data, or suggestions for modeling entropy-function relationships in the brain would be greatly appreciated.
