Abstract
Dynamics is not enough for cognition, nor it is a substitute
for information-processing aspects of brain behavior. Moreover,
dynamics and computation are not at odds, but are quite compatible.
They can be synthesized so that any dynamical system can be analyzed
in terms of its intrinsic computational components.
