I'm very curious about inhibition failures in brain areas, especially between visual perception and motor control. I'm no neurologist but your brain seems to generate a lot of imaginary interpretation when sensing the visual field, but sometimes there are short circuit like failure that leak those potential imaginary futures with you current real self (leading to strange uncoordinated or overlapping motor control signals)

Imbalance of inhibitory and excitatory appears to be the definition/state of a seizure.

Apparently, this even goes both directions, as there are also inhibitory seizures, leading to temporary paralysis! [1]
