In the meeting today we decided that since any project we do will
involve neural networks, we should first create a neural network
framework. The framework should include tools that help us visualize
the network and neural firings. It should also include a modular
representation of the neural networks with various types of modules
along with many ways of connecting these modules. We might want to
include an implementation of a sparse distributed memory too.

If anyone has more design or implementation ideas please let us
know. Randy is going to post a link to a neural network framework
already out there. So for this week, let's play around with this and
keep an eye out for other frameworks out there that might work
better as a starting place. The less implementation we have to do
the better. Also, Paul was going to post a link to Neural Viewer, a
program that lets you create neural networks and visualize them.
Perhaps we could get some ideas from this software.

Once we have a framework in place, it will be much easier to develop
and test our ideas. We would then be in a much better position to
work on complex projects such as Music Mind that use neural
networks.
