If you read the article, it says electric fields move across the brain, and can even jump small gaps. Its not that odd, since its been known for a long time that many animals generate electric fields. Sharks have special sensors to detect the electric fields of prey, and, of course, electric eels can generate a surprisingly large field.
This report is about waves of fields in the human brain which might work as some kind of total brain organizers. Very cool, if true.
“Because bodies, according to their own nature, are changeable, inconstant, and infinitely divisible, and nothing unchangeable remains in them, there is evidently need of a principle that would lead them, gather them, and bind them fast together; and this we name Soul. If then the soul were a body of any kind of constitution, even if it were as small as (an atom,) what would then hold that together ? For we said that every body needed some principle that would hold the body together, and so on into infinity, until we should reach the incorporeal. ....Should it be said, however, that because bodies have three dimensions, then must also the soul, as it penetrates the whole body, be of triple extension, and therefore in any case be a body, then would we have to answer that although every body has three dimensions, yet not everything that has three dimensions is a body. For quantity and quality, which in themselves are incorporeal, may under certain circumstances be reckoned quantatively. Likewise the soul, which in itself is non-extensive, might be considered as tridimensional in case that by chance it had happened into something tridimensional .....” ~ The Neoplatonic Writings of Numenius
