THE PROBLEM WITH IDENTITY
Identity—the unique point of view a person comes into the world with and lives throughout their lives with—becomes a major stumbling block in my understanding of where any sort of awareness goes after death.
A Boundary Between Life and Death?
The research I published (see EXPERIMENT) is a low energy analog of the expanding universe (Analogs are analogies. And analogies can be represented by mathematical functions that model behaviors—behaviors that might be similar to one another).
Creative Overload
With our electronic age, a tipping point in information overload may have been reached, requiring new levels of management, personal and social. Today, almost unlimited information calls to us, generating an infinite potential for the creation of more information.
Our Oscillatory Universe
How The Expanding Universe Might Be Like An Expanding Droplet
Like the boundary of a two-fluid expanding droplet (unsteady and unstable) our universe goes “into and out of focus” at regular intervals.
CONSCIOUSNESS: CONTINUOUS OR DISCONTINUOUS?
For something to exist, like an experience of awareness, part of an apparent continuous consciousness, there must be a relationship across at least one boundary (one difference in potential, or at least one signal/transfer of information). A relationship exists when we sample our environment and it responds to our sampling (the same can be said …
The Changing Climate of The Implicit
The idea here is that we can never know what is behind our observations, since, perhaps, we live in, as John Archibald Wheeler calls it, a participatory universe, the universe of the observer. Observers who sample at their RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW then process the results, generalize about them, and give them meaning, only to “stash them …
Love and Loss
Is there a difference between reaching into the past to find someone you loved but can no longer reach and reaching into the future to find someone you love (or might love), but might never meet? Let me give you an example. People around me are forever mourning the loss of touch with a …
God
Where, might you ask, do I stand on the existence of God? I ask back: Does a businessman accept that any system can be managed effectively by both top down and bottom up leadership and organization? I believe in both. The bottom up is, perhaps, the natural selection way relationships or boundaries have of creating …
Identity
[I’m throwing out lots of ideas and questions here that I hope to clarify in later postings.] What if it’s not how we got to be us, but our unique configuration that determines our unique consciousness? So, does the shape, independent of anything else, determine our unique perspective? The above idea might make sense, …
