- I didn't see them clearly at all. Could you give a quick diagram of the
- "feedback mechanisms" operating in this situation.

-
- Looks like the gang member wanted to see someone shot, saw them shot and
- left (because they also wanted to percepive themselves as being "not in
- custody",
- prbabaly) -- control of feedback. It works because the gang member's actions
- have
- effects, via the environment, on the gang member's perception ( of things
- like whether or not people are shot).
-
- Are you really intrested in what higher level perceptual goal might have been\
- satisfied by produce the percpetion of someone being shot? I don't think you
- can tell from just looking at the results described in your little scenario.
