Even when we are asleep, our brains remain very active, coordinating electrical signals over pathways that are strengthened and weakened based on the amount of neural activity.
Axonal Plasticity : two of two :: "blind subjects were trained to associate letters with distinctive tones, to the point where they could hear a sequence of tones as letters and words ... they'd activate the part of the visual cortex used in reading..."
