Disentangling Cognitive Biases
Cultural and cognitive information systems (and the individuals they inhabit) are implicitly oriented towards the systemic self-replication of patterned complexity. Continue reading Disentangling Cognitive Biases
Self-Propagating Memetic Information Systems
Human minds are self-propagating patterns of information that are implicitly biased towards seeking biological, cultural and technological methods of reproduction. Continue reading Self-Propagating Memetic Information Systems
