## Abstract (arXiv)

We describe a cellular-automaton based, two-dimensional (2D) lattice model which generates global oscillations in the EEG spectrum as well as time series of local field potentials resembling those observed during slow wave sleep. This is made possible by the presence of pacemakers (local oscillators) which can be spontaneously ignited and whose activity propagates through space to synchronize all connected nodes.
