Chomsky gets Channel Theory?

This post is still a mess, I am getting to it.  I am going through the literature on brain processing for language, and am arriving at the idea that language an gestures is designed to generate a bounded function in the brain of the listener.  Basically the talker has a set of counter running and wants to induce the same set of counters in the listener.
The MP appeals to the idea that the language ability in humans shows signs of being incorporated under an optimal design with exquisite organization, which seems to suggest that the inner workings conform to a very simple computational law or a particular mental organ. In other words, the MP works on the assumption that Universal Grammar constitutes a perfect design in the sense that it contains only what is necessary to meet our conceptual, and physical (phonological) needs.[4]
This from Wiki.

So we use the same model as the Bankers Channel, and we exect the ear to perform a spectral decomposition and feed these into the brain equivalent of the Huffman encoder and the phrase is decoded from the encoder tree that results. The simplest model that fits the Chomsky formulation. Continuing ou theme that the brai is a muscle,the utterances decode into action bounded functions.

Chomsky is applying the maximum entropy theory to the language function in the brain. I am going to become the human search engine on this topic for a while because it is closely related to bounded functions, and I expect to find Fibonacci polynomials and counters in the brain used tor language. The barain will be firing up Fb counters to track the utterances, changing the firing rate for various counters to change resolution in bounding the utterances. The brain will be performing phase locks to synchronizing the utterances to the internal polynomial variations. In the end, a set of counter rates is matched against some bounded function associated with muscle action.
The resulting action function decoded will have traces of entanglement between speaker and listener.

I am looking for stuff like this:
Speech sounds can be classified on the basis of their underlying articulators or on the basis of the acoustic characteristics resulting from particular articulatory positions. Research in speech perception suggests that distinctive features are based on both articulatory and acoustic information. In recent years, neuroelectric and neuromagnetic investigations provided evidence for the brain’s early sensitivity to distinctive features and their acoustic consequences, particularly for place of articulation distinctions.
Science Direct
Where the authors are measuring out ability, early in the language channel, to detect speech features that phase lock a measuring bounded function.

The bounded actions we match to speech would obviously be the actions that generate the same speech in ourselves.
Here I start weboshpere searching, so this post will be updated often.
