One thing that I've noticed about the dynamic ideas - within my own self at least - is that their structure and expression is highly sensitive to environment and activity. If I'm engaged in intense physical work, the ideas are formed out of direct experiences - whether through physical experiences or sensory perceptions - which are initially formed as impressions, which can then be elaborated upon when I have settled down.
Settling down for a longer period of time, the ideas begin to crop up and become much more self-referential. They are evoked suddenly and explosively, oftentimes through received symbols that are transmitted through media and reading and writing. And they build upon each other, ever taller into abstraction, as there is more energy available for them.
What is left after these processes is then stored and accumulated, which is used in subsequent processes later on. And it all steadily accumulates and mutates.
