Boundary states and the mark of blanket
This chapter discusses the concept of boundary states and the mark of blanket in the context of the free energy principle. It explores how these concepts allow for the coupling between the internal and external states of something and the exchange of information across the boundary. The chapter also connects the autonomous states of a system to the principle of least action and variational free energy.
