Mathematics is powerful not because it captures the world, but because it captures a way of speaking about the world—an internally consistent, symbolic shorthand for logical necessity. The danger arises when this shorthand, born of abstraction and reduction, is mistaken for the thing itself. We begin to force the world into the constraints of the […]
Actually, this is why we can’t have nice things. In category theory, a natural transformation α: F ⇒ G between functors F, G: C → D is defined by the coherence condition: G(f) ∘ α_A = α_B ∘ F(f) for every morphism f: A → B in the category C. This means that it doesn’t […]
Introduction The Entropic Conductor is a conceptual model for how human cognition self-organizes into meaning and logic from pre-symbolic beginnings. It refers to the infrastructure of mind that lets recursive loops (sometimes called “logical orbits”) form via entropy-driven, time-saturated, and coherence-aligned informational processes. Instead of seeing logical thought and symbols as pre-given foundations, this view […]
Do you agree with the Danish #philosopher and theologian, Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855)? Language mediates not only our experience of the #world but our very structure of experiencing. While #language moves us emotionally and affectively, this felt immediacy is itself a #product of deeper, patterned regularities—mathematical, logical architectures through which meaning is sustained and extended. In […]
Somewhere along the way, scholarship stopped wondering. It began repeating. Rote, recursive, self-preserving patterns. You can hear it, like a machine turning over in an empty hall—papers, citations, more papers—output for the sake of throughput. It’s not malice. It’s momentum. Inertia disguised as rigour. What’s fascinating is how this very pattern—this repetition—is the mechanism by […]
Logical Orbitˈlɒdʒɪkəl ˈɔːbɪt • nounA system sustained by recursive interdependence, where the whole emerges only through the mutual constraint of its internal relations. The deeper one peers into systems—neural, symbolic, economic, linguistic—the more they exhibit recursion not as behaviour but as ontology. From AI models training on data they recursively shape, to quantum fields that […]
To reframe the Lagrangian in terms of deeper exploration of least action, entropy, and logical incompleteness, we begin by shifting the focus from the traditional mechanical interpretation of least action—the path that minimises energy expenditure—to a broader, more ontological interpretation. Here, the least action becomes an approximation towards a kind of dynamic equilibrium, not merely […]
Introduction In an era marked by unprecedented complexity, the quest to understand and address significant problems remains at the forefront of human endeavor. These problems—spanning disciplines such as physics, biology, mathematics, philosophy, and ecology—often defy permanent solutions. They are dynamic, evolving as we interact with them, and they challenge our conventional approaches to problem-solving. Amidst […]
…of course, falling through what may itself have been emergent logical, statistical and/or combinatorial self-regulation into the potential/stored energy of configuration states that generate and sustain complexity may have in some sense been the Universe’s necessary, if fatal, error. Sure, it’s kind of cool to be able to exist, experience and adaptively reflect back upon […]
The consolation of philosophy lies in that language allows us to adaptively reinterpret a commonly (as historically) inequitable and unnecessarily adversarial world as hopeful, meaningful and just. A (related) tragedy of communicative dissonance and conflict seems to be that it is precisely the most competitively frictive and absurdly futile of narratives that tend to percolate […]
As a general observation regarding science and technology, notice that aggregated explanatory toolsets, artefacts, entities and systems are oriented towards the production and self-validation of knowledge in ways that essentially, perhaps irrevocably, alienate us from ourselves and from each other. Rationally orchestrated system- and self-definition amplifies a signal and gradient of information-as-difference, invoking a function […]
I dare say that wherever humanity does or does not find itself in regards to hyper-accelerating tech ological metamorphosis, this destination (or waypoint) will only ever be the most probable as manifest constellation of all possible artefacts, entities and systems in the world. I study holism. Ironically, you come to see it everywhere.
