Hi dude, apologies for delay!
Sporns works mostly on the AI/robotic/computer side of networks; he creates computer models of processes that go on in the brain. He's written a great many papers, most of which are very cool.
This is not brain network mapping though; it is neural network mapping. Confusingly the term 'neural network' is used in both neuroscience and computing. Even more confusingly, some neural network mapping reproduces brain circuits used in brain processes, which is best described in relation to the brain as 'process-mapping' or 'pathway mapping'.
To understand the difference, first look at the 'dopamine pathways' diagram in tutorial 5. This is a brain circuit; a section of pathways down which certain information travels; a 'dedicated line' from a brain network that can pass through and connect with other networks. The whole network is a lot more complex and consists of trillions of connections that can form different circuits as required -it's a plastic, feedback-sensitive, dynamic system.
To see the whole thing, go to the galleries section of the site/ anatomy & physiology/ picture from set 5, “MRI acquisition” and the next five pictures. This complexity is why most computers have a hard time copying most brains, but machines can copy quite a few processes (such as arithmetic, sound filtering, color constancy and pattern recognition) with varying degrees of success.
Hacking N5: Doing N3 and N4 activities, gardening, playing chess, playing music without sheet music; i.e., playing or singing along to stuff you like, but no karaokes. Drawing without a ruler, painting without numbers. Meditation, dancing (not on stage), tai chi, swimming, walking outdoors. Reading stories, watching movies (but pay attention to input control).
For the most accurate and effective hacks for you personally you'll need clear awareness of which particular bad habits you want to replace, but don't approach this with a view to 'putting things right'; rather approach it as an exercise in getting the barriers out of the way of your intelligence, freeing it from harmful distractions by using the circuits yourself for doing good stuff. Recognition of the real facts behind a problem is how a problem starts solving itself.
Best,
