Independence can mean freedom from all memes, too, you know. All preconceptions and even past experience. Try the "Tabla Rasa" approach to Independence Day.
If you understand permutation space within complexity you are free to draw conclusions about system space by your limiting definitions. The math is there. But you'd never believe the system outcome. You'd never believe in species extinction due to adaptive collapse, would you?
No one of any intellectual stature will admit that we cannot describe the simplest organism adequate to it's interconnections. In my heyday it was called the " dragon of complexity" and it was waved away in serious talks among experts. Skip a generation and it returns to confound
@NoraBateson We can't describe complexity anymore. The descriptions exceed the objects in sheer complexity. Borges and others suspected this but modern life proves it beyond argument. Belief that we can describe a virus is the deadliest aspect of the virus.
@hexheadtn Agfa-Ansco 1920's 8x10 film view w/300 mm Eltar Tessar & Packard pneumatic working shutter and many film holders. Full size film scanner. 3.25 x 4.25 roll film press camera with wide normal and telephoto lenses + film holder for D2 enlarger. Just sayin.
@hrheingold That makes two of us that remember Situationism, anyway. I took my wife on a date to see "Ideology Breaks Bricks" and the marriage survived. 😂
If a file dies on a hard drive did it ever really exist? Does existence have to have a future? Buy yourself some time and sit still. Very still. Until you can hear the moment tell you what you need to hear. #vennBuddhism
Human nature. We defer to the noisiest species on the planet and thus 12000 years of sentient delusion?
Fight me = love us?
Learn a world by heart and lose the fist, bro.
It's ok to listen and think in place.
Learn to breathe then save your breathe
Why are you drowning in a sea of time? Are we so busy that we can't find time for the present?
We push aside the present and slam fear and hope into our one opportunity: the now.
Out of step with the present moment we are grabbing and flailing to no avail.

I celebrate the distance between me and perfection. Gives me something to do and think about. And leaves room for questions at the end. Join me in thanking all our imperfections for all the time and space of each day, each lifetime. #vennBuddhism. The empty set. Hooray!
Consciousness rises and falls in rhythms that resemble compound sine waves - (anyone interested in synthetic music production has heard or manipulated.) How about "Consciousness is merely synthesized natural awareness, and shouldn't be taken as the birthday suit of being"
My practice will never be separate from my perfection. My perfection will never be me. I am a loose cannon in a shipload of tight cannons. Oh well so it goes.
