What’s here…
These are mostly a small sampling of emails that I thought might be interesting for people to browse.
It’s mainly about a new kind of meaning of the physical world, about time as a ‘work in progress’ you might say. It’s about learning to recognize the learning processes of uncontrolled individual natural systems. An economy is an uncontrolled natural system, powered by the choices of people, that has accumulative learning that produces complex growth and stability and collapse and other permanent changes of design. That learning changes both its parts and the whole.
To learn about what’s happening in one such individual system it pays to learn about lots of others. My website has more direct discussion of how to do that.
Most people assume that physical things behave according to physical laws, and that their local learning processes are just following formulas not yet understood. So our minds have been sort of trained not to see the development of original design and behavior. So, because it partly means learning how to consider you assumptions as variables, sort of recognize continually changing ‘laws’, one needs to look for things that diverge from your expectations. I thought sharing some fairly ordinary conversation about it might help.
