 Surya - Discussion of recent theoretical attempts to unify the fields of information theory and control theory.  Such a unification may be relevant to understanding sensorimotor loops at a computational level.
Refers to work by Sanjoy Mitter at MIT and Sekhar Tatikonda at Yale.  Possible background reading:
