Economies of scale in the rendering of the unmanifest

I will propose that there is an importance in using the visual format in rendering sci-fi. A visual format is more rich and highly-dimensional (‘bandwidth’) than text.

The Faces of a Fractal

The Imageboard of discussion produces interesting gems. I will highlight this one, presenting various ways in which the ‘dragon curve’ fractal can be produced. Fractal are an important part of Dimensional Analysis. The tool… instrument… mental model… of Dimensional Analysis has seen a great rise in past century, where-before we saw such analysis limited to:

US Supreme Court judges leave warrantless monitoring of mobile phone position in the ‘legal’ status

Wired seems to be the major story-breaker on the Supreme Court’s decision on warrant-less GPS tracking. The Decision Many people mis-read what the decision was.

Relational Chemistry: the Narcolepton

Narcolepton, n. That elementary particle of consciousness, binding suddenly, to tie together the sleepy material world when we decohere from the rhythm of higher consciousness. Narcolepton decay occurs when a higher vibrational state converts to a lower vibrational state in a process that stabilizes the rhythm in a relationship commonly defined by chemistry.

The Structure of Cognition

Whitmer looks to define disassociation as a single-person endeavor, within the context of a relationship / interaction. The single-person model constructs disassociation as a defensive activity that limits exposure to developing Mind / mental strategies in the context of an other (e.g. Parent) who presents conflicting, confused, or (otherwise) subtly traumatizing presence of being. Whitmer [...]

The arrival of memory

There was a sight ( of some small bread made in a style) and a smell ( light but warm and bodied); and there’s a texture, and taste like flour. The kinds of fragments of a memory of a food that you never forget.  In my vision: a man. A baker from an old kingdom; [...]

Search Interface Improvements

Each search keyword sets the path toward a target, more or less usefully. The context for sorting Nth-order keywords (popularity, semantic clusters, time period) has everything to do with potential – not just ‘in the search,’ but in the scope of learning. Visual representation of next-in-series (Nth) keywords can radically improve and guide development of [...]

From Balkunin to Bloodline

Balkunin is very concerned with ethical epistemology. Wherefrom Right was derived and its ownership (by the people) stand as core to his questions. The only kind of right is a natural break, which is itself a delicate shroud of one’s residence and accordance with natural law. The actions one takes in consonance with natural law [...]

Information Architectonics

I’m very interested with infinity.  Lemniscence and recursion – the way that things reconnect to themselves.  So I’m interested in the notion of visual syntax because I see a need to understand the language of structure as it extends into the semasiographic and the allegorical. I think this was the original intent of architectonics.  I [...]

The Development of Outer Space Diplomacy

A few interesting pieces of context exist, for the context of human’s current and active relationship to space-faring races. The fist, because it’s my favorite story, comes from EarthFiles.com founder Linda Moulton Howe – who told of meeting a retiree of the US DIA, whose official capacity was to “monitor the changes in geo-political divisions between non-humans living on the Earth.” ~Spectacular~
