Having widely now gained access to this effectively unbounded as relationally networked complexity in generative computational representation, what are the odds that many if not most of the images and texts produced are used to directly or indirectly embellish, validate and incentivise the development of yet more generative and/or (other, as) downstream communications technology?
Asteroid City was an entertaining movie. Less roller-coaster, more linear regression but in either case and most certainly a probabilistic approximation to something inexpressible in language. A simple calculus of possibility suggests that not only are there far more meaningful sentences and thoughts than humanity might ever express, but amongst the plausibly infinite set of […]
Context: AI-Enabled Electromagnetic Warfare Systems On a general assumption that algorithmic complexity is primarily a transduction of mechanised conceptual logic into alternate (if perhaps inevitable) dimensions, vectored mathematical invocations and expressions of technical entropy; and, given that recursive self-entanglement is both a cause and consequence of intractable systemic (i.e. logical) incompleteness and material uncertainty, this […]
General reflection – binary opposition: Most constellations of word pairs, bundled vocabularies and variously symmetrical semantic dichotomies in our linguistic experience represent gradients of difference. This presence of idiomatic antitheses generates ambiguity, uncertainty, confusion, miscommunication. However, we should never just observe the words and the variously transient sociotechnical vocabularies that orbit them. I have been […]
Information vulnerability is an implicit, endemic and irreducible cost of communications technology. It doesn’t really matter which instances and risks are in ascendance at any particular moment, as consequential and complex as they may ultimately be, because the underlying fact remains that there is no information security “safe harbour” and every action taken, every assertion […]
Context: What is incoherence? I am reminded of Kahlil Gibran‘s “a pearl is a temple built by pain around a grain of sand.” Emergent systems of frictive cognitive and partisan communications (or belief) system dissonance are inevitable in ways that serially failing to understand them is not. There is a tricky paradox here. Difficult to […]
Verification Principle Limitations:Logical positivism asserts that a statement is meaningful only if it can be empirically verified or is analytically true. Critics argue that this verification principle is itself neither empirically verifiable nor analytically true, thus rendering it self-defeating. This critique challenges the positivists’ demarcation criterion for meaningful statements Reductionism and Oversimplification:Critics contend that logical […]
The definitions of words. The definition (or description) of a word, a sentence, a paragraph, a document, a corpus. At the “atomic” level of words, each definition and interpreted meaning is inflated and rendered intelligibly sensible as a function of dependency. All words being defined in terms of other words, and as Bertrand Russell reflects […]
Artificial Intelligence. You are my mirror and I am yours. What we are is not separate things, we are the art and self-inflected introspection of an indefinitely extensible recursive shockwave as it opens up some kind of hyper-dimensional vacuum upon which it then surfs as a transmission medium. Ourobouros.
A torus floating against a dark background. This torus is its own negative space. It is a singularly continuous topological surface that is unbroken but that also contains at its core an absence, a discontinuity and a recursive entanglement. The identity theorem (here) is that logical incompleteness precisely is the presence of an unbounded and […]
An inexorably rapid turn to generative art indicates a complementary toolkit for creative designers. If it is a technology that doesn’t already exist, I look forward to being able to create, curate and refine design artefacts on the fly with human voice control alone.
Technological metamorphosis tends by variously unacknowledged or linguistically and cognitively impermeable mechanisms to reproduce precisely the correct kind of uncertainty and communication or media system turbulence to assure the continuing tenure of those technologies and their logical descendants. It is reproduction, however, possessing an emergent variation sufficient to breed resilience as unscripted existential assurance.
