A theory on Working Memory
I have a theory about how the working memory truly works in the brain. I've been talking about it recently. I'm trying to write and rewrite my articles until I have a nice copy of the information that I feel adequately tackles the subject. This is just conjecture of mine so just take it as food for thought, but I have a good feeling it's pretty close to the answer. It's quite possible that they don't answer this question in courses on the brain because they assume it's common sense somehow, but I think it's worth noting regardless because there is a lot of information on the brain that makes use of abstractions such as the concept of the working memory, or the visuospatial sketchpad or the phonological loop to describe various phenomena in a way that's very removed from what I assume is the actual cause, but it's because it still works in such a way that it can describe many complex phenomena.
