Overall, I like it. I do have some questions that the poster itself doesn't seem to answer.
1) what is the vertical axis in the 3D model in the upper left? It seems that the compass is mapping a horizontal plane through the (center of the) 3D model.
2) I'm not at all sure what the small figure at the center is about - the colors used, their positioning, the curved lines between the central figure and inner circle of (geometric) figures.
3) I find the orientation of the inner circle of figures confusing. Is there some reason they're not all oriented with grounding down, motion upper right, connection upper left? It would mean the differently colored bit in the perimeter of each of these figures, rather than pointing up, would point to its o'clock position (I think). That seems more natural to me, though I may be missing something.

The titles/subtitles of the lower left and right figures may be fine for doctors. I don't get much of anything from "Reconciling Coordination with Jacksonian Dissolution." And if I understand "Variable Recruitment" it's modeled graphically in both left and right figures, unlabeled on the left, labeled on the right.
1- The primary graphic is a flattening of a 3-variable model onto a 2-dimensional space. So if you were to map this model algorithmically it would require a 3-D space to do it.
2- maybe we should explain this in the legend. The model is fractal. The primary colored large inverted triangle is mapping neuroception.
3- They are the actual integral of each state expressed visually.

Yeah. Pretty technical shit. Variable recruitment is the meta-functioning of the ANS, the fulcrum of which is neuroception.
How can anyone evaluate this without being able to read the small print?
Fair. But we are looking for feedback on the visual design. The writing has already been vetted. Thanks.
Good visual design is intimately linked to content. To separate them, even conceptually, is an error, imo.
