, also known as “the wizard of consciousness”(born 1973 in Weimar, Germany) is a cognitive scientist focusing on cognitive architectures, models of mental representation, emotion, motivation and sociality. Achievements include research in novel data compression algorithm using concurrent entropy models; development of microPsi cognitive architecture for modeling emotion, motivation, mental representation. In 2000, Bach graduated with a diploma in Computer Science from Berlin, followed by a Doctor of Philosophy at Osnabrück University, Germany, in 2006.

[O]ur best bet is not just to have a single classification with filtering. ...[I]nstead... take the low level of input and get a whole universe of features that is interrelated. ...[W]e have different levels of determinations. At the lowest level we have percepts. At a slightly higher level we have simulations, and on an even higher level we have a concept landscape.

[C]ausal models can be weakly deterministic, basically associative models, which tell you if this state [S<sub>1</sub>] happens, it is quite probable that this one [S<sub>2</sub>] comes afterwards. Or you can get to a strongly determined model... one which tells you, if you are in this state [S<sub>1</sub>], and this condition [c<sub>1</sub>] is met, you're going to go exactly in this state [S<sub>2</sub>]. If this state is not met, or a different condition [c<sub>2</sub>] is met, you go into this state [S<sub>3</sub>]. And this is what we call an algorithm. Now you're in the domain of computation.
