an arbitrary if?

Are the if waves arbitrary or something more interesting? I think that perhaps am currently wrong in their non-arbitrary nature*. However, it seems like they at least could be non arbitrary.. Here it goes: Say something like if XyZ with ^ ? After the initial getting used to it, the wave doesn’t seem to require […]

a clear idea re fuzziness

of meanings? Don’t meanings operate, the way they move, is actually via fuzzy functions? If people are meanings creators, generators, propagators and re-generators, is it not that it can be claimed that in-fact, on a rather more abstract sense – people, or “meaning” oriented beings, are in fact fuzz makers?

universal no abstract?

A universal element, be it arbitrary or slightly less so – eg, a Universal declaration of human rights (arbitrary) Vs Universality of H2O, etc. – are simply sequences that may (by legislation or evolution) be applicable throughout a fair bit of timespace. It can be argues that the longevity of such universal is linked to […]

freedom and nude turban burka?

A woman in Tunisia decided to cover her body with slogans/text and post images of it on the web. She got into trouble with Tunisian power, and Femen decided to show some support. At the bottom half of the link, there is a post by someone in Saudi arabia saying that Nudity liberates her not. […]

entropy as a god?

Was just re-reading about Jeremy English’s idea of being within a material evolution in which energies get – i’d say Cultured – into converting/translating energies and disseminating them ever more efficiently so that process will increase entropy. Note: Some terms here are via my own energy translation and dissemination – eg “translation”, “culture” (verb) “efficient” […]

free will and expression baka?

I wonder whether expression is a question contrary to that of freedom and particularly that of will? Isn’t freedom a question of fear rather than expression? If a fears b – can a have a free will? in that sense the freedom, the sense of freedom is of ability to turn towards in all intervals […]

questions(?) from brighton pavilion civil(?) liberties(?) hustings with

Caroline Lucas (Green), Purna Sen (Labour), Clarence Mitchell (Conservative), Chris Bowers (Liberal Democrat), Nigel Carter (UKIP), Howard Pilott (The Socialist Party of Great Britain) and Nick Yeomans (Independent). (details – http://www.meetup.com/ORG-Brighton/events/221341373/ ) The meeting was organised by Open Rights Group (org) Last night meeting was, I hope, something to learn from… * I think the […]

a dodgy note re self questioning?

When, unlike a rock, an entity questions itself. Even as in “can i be z?” (when i is I and z is anything one thinks they are or actually are) The very practice of such questioning – which I think a living material does – creates the ability, more than that – the necessity – […]

notes todo with questions of operations

functions and immanent objects – or perceptions of – in art? * The difference between functions and operations seems that operations contain multiple functions. The operation of a steady material in the bike pedal design/implementation is to allow various functions to occur. If the material was ice or paper, then it could be argued the […]

power and death of imagination via embodiment?

Some claim that power fears or dreads imagination and that is the basic radical element in art. That art always questions, imagines the world different. Even if its something seemingly innocent and simple, like a drawing. A stoke of a dark pencil that sheds a new light on a familiar surrounding. A re-imaging and by […]

uk is a thief

Linked to the practice of exchaning xdomains/xcountries/xstates giftcards in bus stops. On Saturday night, while picking some stuff in the local coop – the property keeper accused me of nicking stuff a few days earlier, and “asked” me to get get out of the shop. I was like: “WHAT??!!” He was: LOOK, Here’s a photo […]

sport and society but uncontrolled?

Since Cesar the original stating stuff to the effect that developing gladiatorial events in the Colosseum is rather cool for keeping most people happily concentrated on stuff that doesn’t really matter, I think a certain usage of sport* by politicians and power people has a certain documented evidence. (* Gladiatorial games are indeed neither sport […]

coco co coocoo corelation ismic?

Checked corelation on the dictionary. Seems interesting the way that corelations might come about. The word art has to Be,in english, when a is followed by an r that’s followed by t. Once the letters come is that specific order – sequence – they are correlated for the purpose of producing the sound of the […]

pain and death fear?

According to Hilary Puntam’s computationalist manifesto a conscious organism is a probabilistic automata that can sense/feel pain. The pain bit is not the same as fear, but reminds me Hegel’s idea of fear of death – an end – as a kind of probable crisis that requires an awareness for probable extension of living time. […]

A declining crime usa rates – huh??

Perhaps interesting because as a society we pay a shocking lot for measures we are told are to do with dealing crime blows. We pay, more than for universities, towards keeping other humans locked as they are dangerous, pay for police and judicial systems, we pay for politicians to help keep us poor lot safe […]

b more like uk = ok?

The kremlin’s rt.com is happy to to feature a recent lords’ report critical of eu (and uk’s involvement in it) in relation to ukraine’s situation with russia currently.. It seems like from rt’s pov the report goes in-line with it’s attempt to portray “the west” as being in some sort of “decline”. An on-going theme […]
