This was a comment composed in YW related to an excellent article on how different cultures and languages divide up the regions of the color spectrum into differed names, such a blue or green.    ———– This is very interesting and I could devote days (even years) exploring the fractal depth of color (and sound, taste,…

Conspire, breathe life together, YES, Dan.  We can go a long way towards this fantasy vision, and maybe beyond, eventually. ALL aspects of each of our selves/WORLDS cannot yet (and maybe never) be coded in utterances (sems). Some of these may be inferred eventually by future YWorlds systems. Yet, our Y-Persons could truly be awesome….

Dan, for over a day I thought this was your writing. My Adobe reader needed upgrading and my Windows Installer is often installing something I can’t detect which blocks all updates. It cleared and I was able to view Whorf’s ancient pdf, and find the above a direct quote – and still very important. Whorf…

SEMS == IMMUTABLE MOBILES Constructive Review of Bruno Latour’s Visualization and Cognition                  nuet  12/16/12                  This 32 page PDF doc (Visualization and Cognition: Drawing Things Together) was a very exciting read, from which I took notes. I did not study the doc to the depth of every detail; I focused on how…

I enjoyed exploring the many aspects of your linked site, and downloaded it pdf. The Enterprise Data Management (EDM) Council’s FIBO Semantics Initiative. I have neither the time or competencies to explore the technological details; but I will share my first impressions. This is obviously a product of the community of intelligent and creative, high…

Comment on: It’s Time to Change What is Possible on Climate  nuet  12/16/12         I agree that complex systems can exhibit threshold effects and tipping points; and I do not question that attitudes towards climate change may be catalyzed to tip, or shift radically. However, I query whether we are near any significant threshold (given…

There is the budding edge of science (Kuhn’s paradigm shifting science  vs normal science) which speculates beyond the empirical evidence.  Science practice often overlooks (and sometimes intentionally suppresses) valid data that doesn’t agree with established scientific dogma. The history of science is full of such shenanigans. I don’t personally know, but IMHO almost all of…

Glisten, I had this insight looking at your most recent graphic model posted in Y-World, and then looking again at some of your other maps/models. String Theory in physics was invented after I left the discipline and have yet to find a good book to give me an adequate introduction. All I know is that…

The following I put in a comment re the position proposed by Channon in the video: IMHO Channon is highly distracting from the real issue: who can make the right decisions to stop global heating and prepare for restoration? Who would tell the military (if they exist, then) what to do? The global corporate world?…

Here is the new look site, I hope you like it, I am writing this by way of welcome and to replace the generic Welcome to wordpress post 🙂 Looking forward to filling it all in with you.
