The document discusses convergence in social technologies and infrastructures, and how current social media systems have failed to fully utilize network properties and distribution. It proposes that deconstructing rigid socio-political systems through liberalizing network properties and realizing network systems through mutations in social reality could emanate new social infrastructures without reference to previous systems. This would cancel media and arrive at pure information and a system without mediation through new syntax or language that enables instant cognition beyond current formats.
The story begins with the escape of the apocalyptic reality, into the mind of a genius of the brush and stroke. Being an ambitious and busy mind after the Cézanne Drawing exhibition at the MoMA NYC I was compelled to apply acquired energy into compelling research. Although my mind was still in a noisy state I had a couple of thoughts on revisiting and reviving my old research from 2006/07. The main ambition was to make a significant imprint of earthshattering beauty into a collective conscience.
Traveling from New York to Mexico, I have decided to execute the project in a primordial beauty in the cultivated jungle paradise. Photographs were taken on the 8th of August 2021 at the exhibition at the MoMA NYC and projected on a couple of locations at Tulum, Mexico in October 2021. The event was also filmed with GoPro camera. It was therapy for me, as I am hoping the entire project can have a therapeutic influence on the bruised collective soul and mind.
Progressing the research expanded to comprehension of laws of the universe and into contextual landscaping, cognitive modeling, and intelligent environment(s). In a tête-à-tête with a universe, my input was Cézanne’s artwork and in return, I got answers in a form of puzzles, yet to be cracked.
The true power of the project is in unlocking the potential of the environment by relinquishing or letting go of the role of creator, producer, and viewer. I have sensitized the environment to be able to activate its self-producing force and intelligence. While in the first research I have created a system that is implosive by the nature, constantly generating systems without a recollection of the previous one; in this one, I have emptied the referent point/space to activate the environment yielding on the superposition property of the system to be able to unlock the essence, to reach the energy-momentum and tap into cosmic reason.
The idea is also to dip the research into the NFT art world to gain an extra perspective of art in blockchain technology and to test its reception on alternate realities.

This document examines Deleuze's concept of "transcendental empiricism" through his analysis of cinema. It makes three key points:
1) Deleuze seeks to free experience from its Kantian limitations by conceptualizing a "transcendental experience" that is grounded in the virtual and exceeds sensory-motor capacities.
2) In cinema, the "time-image" arises when action-images break down, dragging the viewer into the temporal dimension of the image and a direct experience of time itself.
3) This transition results in a "fissured ego" as the transcendental subject is grounded in absolute time rather than vice versa, resulting in a
The document discusses several ideas in cognitive sciences including embodied cognition, extended cognition, situated cognition, and enactive cognition. It notes that cognitive sciences encompass multiple disciplines including neuroscience, AI, experimental psychology, and more. It also discusses theories that cognition is embodied, situated in the environment, extended across objects, and enactive through sensorimotor engagement with the world rather than representational.
This document summarizes a talk given by Jack Sarfatti on the topic of how the future may affect the past. Some of the key points discussed include:
1) Theories that attempt to unify general relativity and quantum mechanics suggest that time travel to the past may be possible through wormholes.
2) Quantum experiments have shown that measurements performed in the future can influence the present, raising questions about whether the universe has a predetermined destiny.
3) A post-quantum view incorporates the idea that future events contribute causal influences on present ones, with the past and future interacting at the present moment. This perspective suggests retrocausality, or the idea that the future affects the past.

The paper / presentation explores the fate of concrete solutions to introduce a combination of Solution Spaces in times of exploding Problem Spaces.
Innovative presentation and conceptualization methods were introduced at the ‘Communication Camp’ organized at the WFSF conference in Turku in 1993 and covered in the newsletter ‘Knowledge Spiral’ of the Youth and in the Finish weekly „HELSINGIN SANOMAT“.
These new communication methods have since been widely used and therefore we can now reflect on their successes, challenges, and possibilities for further use.
The key concepts included:
a) Open-Forum/Open-Space: a ‘Magic Roundtable’ conversation method which has led to online dialogues as well as ‘live encounters’, to encourage empathy in communication, as well as multi-track diplomacy and peacemaking efforts for community building.
b) Cognitive Panorama: Immersive spaces, externally oriented workspaces of the mind for spacial Erörterungen (deliberations and encounters) for an extra shared overview.
The session will revisit the 10 theses from 24 years ago: “our view of life is too flat”, will try to expand the themes, introduces “Out of the Box thinking and Paradigm-mapping” seminars, and critically review developments, looking back and forward.
We will discuss democracy, education, the future of the media, as well as the need to revisit the intersection of systems and models, imagination and shared augmented virtual realities, complexity and perplexity, signs and senses, concepts/signs and percepts/senses, ethics and policy-making.

Exopolitics and Integral Theory - Giorgio Piacenza Cabrera (Exopaedia.org)Exopolitics Hungary
This document discusses combining Exopolitics and Integral Theory to understand extraterrestrial thinking. Exopolitics explores political aspects of extraterrestrial contact, while Integral Theory provides a comprehensive framework. The author believes these approaches can synergistically reinforce each other to help communicate with ETs and restructure society. Transdimensional ETs may use concepts beyond our classical understanding, so integrating Exopolitics and Integral Theory could help decipher meanings during contact and develop viable consciousness levels for political interaction.

This article discusses the author's work toward unifying mind and matter through various scientific theories and concepts. Over decades, the author was inspired by thinkers like Gödel, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg and others to explore ideas like quantum field theory underlying the mind/brain, color perception as quantum states, and formal systems capable of self-reference to represent consciousness. The author believes he has found a simple solution identifying perceptual qualities as quantum fields, with matrices representing relationships between brain and experience. The field seems to be gaining recognition, as shown by related publications and conferences on the topic of quantum interaction.

|Lost in the Labyrinth of Incarnations - Traveling without Moving: Dis-coveri...FauneRevol
This document discusses Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological approach to perception, which aims to understand phenomena in an unbiased way by detaching from preconceptions and habitual ways of understanding. It argues that in contemporary society, phenomena are increasingly obscured by layers of objectification and abstraction. Baudrillard's concept of hyperreality is introduced to explain how we may perceive phenomena according to objectified representations rather than directly. The essay aims to explore how intentionality and a return to lived experience, as advocated by Merleau-Ponty, may help rediscover or re-open our understanding of phenomena beyond objectifications.
This report supports, inspires ,and attracts you nearer to your maker. It carries us to an acknowledgment of what our identity is, and of whom would we like to be; the one that is satisfying unto the most High GOD. This report assists me with showing some cool stuff and I believe you will as well.
- Consciousness can be defined as awareness projected onto a vibratory dream. We perceive a material reality through our senses, but in truth space, time, and matter do not truly exist. We are all interconnected parts of the One Universal Mind.
- Our purpose is to reconnect with our original state of being, which is oneness with God. We experience life through individual consciousnesses, but in truth we are all the One Mind experiencing itself subjectively.
- Reality is a holographic projection created by the interference of vibratory light/thought waves. We perceive it as external, but it is really an internal virtual reality. We are both the projector and the observer of this reality.
This zine explores the formation of information and how it manifests in natural and complex systems. The goal is to advance new mathematical systems that can describe the dynamic formation of patterns in nature, biology, and society. The zine also aims to shift perspectives towards understanding nature's creative processes and how human creativity can be influenced by these ideas. It seeks to explain these concepts through an accessible design to spread this new way of thinking.
This document discusses the nature of reality and consciousness from a philosophical perspective. It proposes that:
1) Our perceived reality is actually a holographic virtual reality simulation ("The Matrix") projected by Original Consciousness/Awareness for learning purposes.
2) Within this simulation, individual consciousnesses ("we") experience restricted awareness as separate entities, while actually being facets of the One Universal Mind.
3) The goal is for individual consciousnesses to evolve and eventually "return" to full awareness of being the Universal Mind.
1) Modern physics and science have discovered that the universe is fundamentally holographic and interconnected, rather than a collection of separate objects.
2) Pioneering scientists like Bohm and Pribram proposed that reality is holographic, with the properties of the whole contained in every part.
3) If the nature of reality is truly holographic, it suggests that consciousness plays a role in constructing physical reality and that our thoughts can directly influence worldly outcomes.
This document discusses the theory of the knowledge society and the concept of a "super-paradigm". It argues that we are facing a new reality that completely overturns existing knowledge. The super-paradigm represents a mix of old and new scientific paradigms integrated in new ways. It also discusses defining characteristics of the new paradigms, including blurred boundaries between matter and spirit. The document puts forth a view of reality as both existing and not existing ("vannincs"), and explores a multi-level structure of reality from the divine to the human. It argues the new model of globalization supports efforts for an eventual "Age of Unity" in the 21st century characterized not by uniformity but cooperation between

Freud, Jung & the Hard Problem of Consciousnesscheriching
The document discusses Freud and Jung's work on the human "networking system" or mechanism of psychical continuity between individuals. It defines this system from objective and subjective perspectives. Freud and Jung described it as an inherited, hardwired structure in the newborn brain and a process of transmitting mental states between generations. They saw this system as the basis for social psychology and the development and progression of civilization.
This document discusses the nature of reality and consciousness. It proposes that:
1) Space and time are illusions, and the only reality is thought itself. Our lives are a sensory illusion that gives experience to universal thought.
2) We are all connected to a universal thought/supercomputer (The Matrix) that projects our individual conscious experiences as holograms.
3) Original consciousness experiences life through many connections to different virtual reality worlds/universes simultaneously for learning purposes. Higher levels of consciousness can oversee or intervene in whole universes/groupings of universes.
4) Our reality is a hologram projected by the interference of the original light of consciousness and our
The document discusses different philosophical perspectives on the nature of reality. It addresses two main aspects: 1) the nature of reality itself and 2) the relationship between reality and human factors like perception and language. There are differing views such as realism, which holds that an objective reality exists independently of human views, and anti-realism, which argues reality is dependent on social constructs and consensus. The nature of truth is also debated, with some arguing it corresponds to objective facts while others see it as subjective based on agreement.
This document discusses how contemporary society has become overly focused on visual imagery due to technological influences like television and the internet. This has led architecture to prioritize aesthetics over engaging other senses. The document presents the work of architects Descosterd & Rahm as a case study in designing for the "invisible" dimensions of smell, sound, and climate. It argues that controlling vision with technology could provoke architectural experiences that combine the visible with the invisible senses in new ways.
This document proposes the concept of "Smart Landscapes" as an integral approach to understanding the convergence of emerging technologies like NBIC (Nano-Bio-Info-Cogno) with human culture and transcendence. It argues that with technologies like the Internet of Things, the boundaries of the cognitive system and self extend beyond the human body. The "Smart Landscape" represents a posthuman condition where one's social space and interactions construct the environment as an extension of the self. It envisions personalized, interactive landscapes replacing city districts as a space for open communication and cultural symbol actualization between posthuman beings.
Quantum computing is a new technology using which it may be possible to discover new knowledge that are too difficult for even super computers. This research proposal involves understanding thought processes, consciousness, individual perception and societal development.
This document discusses the concept of rigidity in creation. It states that as objects move farther from the primordial light (God), their movement slows and they become increasingly rigid. It claims the Earth is now farther from this light due to human actions, causing movements to slow and rigidity to set in, affecting not just bodies but also thinking. It warns that distorted concepts will progress toward full rigidity if humanity does not strive spiritually upward again toward the light.
The document provides an overview of theories from different fields that can provide a refreshed view of the professional context, including:
- Polysystem Theory, which describes social systems as having interdependent subsystems rather than an independent deep structure
- Pierre Bourdieu's concept of habitus, which describes how individual behaviors emerge from social interactions
- Juri Lotman's concept of the semiosphere, which views communication as occurring within overlapping social niches
- Ilya Prigogine's work on dissipative structures and self-organizing systems, which sees entropy as enabling systems to evolve into higher complexity
- Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, with a focus on emotional intelligence and its importance for feedback loops
This document discusses a model of the text generator proposed by Michael W. Mair. It aims to provide an organic basis for consciousness by modeling how the brain generates text in real time. The author analyzes a 3.7 second fragment of conversation between two participants to understand how the brain segmented time, coordinated speech and movement, and rapidly generated the text. While the model is incomplete, it aims to understand cognition by studying examples at a fine-grained temporal scale to see how brain processes intersect with the timing of natural language production.

This document discusses various elements of literature including poetry, narrative, and drama. It describes literature as a form of human expression that uses language and creativity to evoke responses in readers. Literature can explore ideas, feelings, fantasy, and horror through the use of techniques like figures of speech, unusual syntax, images, symbols, and themes. The reading of literature is a process that develops the reader's skills and abilities to evaluate, understand, and critique what they read based on their knowledge and emotional engagement with the text. The document also outlines various narrative levels, plot structures, character types, points of view, uses of time and space in literary works.
Surviving in an Async-First Development WorldMirco Vanini
This document discusses strategies for developing asynchronous applications using C# keywords like async and await. It begins with an introduction to asynchronous programming concepts like contexts and threads. It then covers the costs and benefits of using async/await, how to avoid common pitfalls like async void methods, and how to optimize asynchronous code using techniques like ConfigureAwait and parallelism. The goal is to help developers understand how to structure applications to take full advantage of asynchrony.
The document introduces a collection of mysterious drawings created by an artist named Harris Burdick. Burdick visited a children's book publisher with drawings and stories but then disappeared without a trace. Years later, more clues have emerged but the mystery of Harris Burdick remains unsolved. The document includes reproductions of Burdick's drawings along with captions he provided.

The document provides several tips for women's physical fitness and health. It recommends starting with enjoyable activities like walking, dancing, or cleaning. It also suggests using a treadmill for strength training while walking and limiting alcohol and smoking. Eating healthy snacks and staying hydrated by drinking water are also advised. Workouts should be limited to under an hour and refined carb intake should be reduced.
Data-oriented design (DOD) focuses on how data is accessed and transformed, rather than how code is organized. This improves performance by minimizing cache misses and allowing better utilization of parallelism. The document provides an example comparing an object-oriented design (OOD) approach that stores related data together in objects, resulting in scattered memory access and many cache misses, versus a DOD approach that groups together data that is accessed together, resulting in fewer cache misses and faster performance.

Urban Hub 22 : Transitions - Thriveable CitiesPaul van Schaık
No one vision is sufficient in and of itself – visions can guide but only by collaborative action in a creative generative process can visions grow and become part of an ongoing positive sociocultural reality.
Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities and humankind.
Human research and complexity theory c9 march_0114March Lin
1. The document discusses how complexity theory challenges traditional positivist assumptions and can help develop a new social science. It focuses on understanding emergent behaviors from interactions within self-organizing systems.
2. Researching social systems like schools and communities as complex, adaptive systems could provide insights into how small changes influence phase transitions.
3. To properly study human systems, research must acknowledge the observer's role and seek an ethical, reflexive approach respecting all participants' autonomy within their natural context.
Human research and complexity theory c9 march_0114March Lin
This document summarizes a chapter from a dissertation on complexity theory and its application to educational research. It discusses how complexity theory challenges traditional positivist assumptions and could enable a new science of qualities that complements existing quantitative research. It also outlines how complexity theory views learning communities as complex adaptive systems and examines the conditions under which phase transitions occur in such systems.
The document discusses the dominance of binary thinking in Western thought and its limitations in fully understanding complex phenomena. It argues that binary codes, while useful for simplifying communication, oversimplify the world by reducing all issues into polar opposites. To develop a more comprehensive understanding, the document calls for moving beyond binary thinking towards holistic thinking that considers relationships and systems as a whole rather than just the sum of parts. It discusses how several thinkers have advocated for holism to provide a more complete view of reality.
The document discusses the dominance of binary thinking in Western thought and its limitations in fully understanding complex phenomena. It argues that binary codes, while useful for simplifying communication, oversimplify the world by reducing everything into polar opposites. To develop a more comprehensive understanding, the document calls for moving beyond binary thinking towards holistic thinking that considers relationships and systems as a whole. It discusses how early philosophers like Comte emphasized the importance of holism and how Morin later developed a "method" to reform human thought by reintegrating what specialist research had separated.
The document summarizes key points from a book about how the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for systemic and socially intelligent thinking. It discusses how we are all interconnected and interdependent, and how developing love and sensitivity for others through reciprocal relationships is important for addressing challenges. The pandemic exposed how ignoring connections can harm all parts of the system. Moving forward requires perceiving others' needs as our own and prioritizing mutually beneficial relationships over individual interests alone.
- The document proposes a new framework called "practicism" based on the author's notion of "meta-semeiotics" to address shortfalls in existing social sciences and practices.
- Meta-semeiotics views all things through interconnected "plurisigns" that can be assembled and disassembled through sensemaking and language. It provides a holistic perspective grounded in the true structure of the universe.
- Adopting this meta-semeiotic perspective could help solve many problems in society by replacing current "insane" and reductionist sensemaking with a more complete understanding based on principles like holoplurality. It could transform fields like economics, social sciences, and physics.
If there is a dumb meta-narrative acting as the framework of our experiences, actions, and life, then we need a more detailed theoretical explanation of how capitalism provides us with social cohesion.
One attempt at this explanation is developed in the Theory of Social Imaginaries by contemporary thinkers such as Gilbert Durand, Michel Maffesoli, Cornelius Castoriadis, and Charles Taylor.
This section discusses life and the human experience from a scientific perspective. It proposes that humans experience narrative structure that creates a sense of identity through the meaning-making process. The objective world and our subjective experiences interact to form narratives that are shared between people. Understanding life requires comprehending how structure, process, and pattern interact in our experiential world.
"Society 2.0: designing an action research into the next civilization" is an updated version of the talk I gave at the "2gether08" unconference in London, July 3, 2008. A downloadable version (complete with clickable links), its context and related conversation can be found in the Jump Time Players blog, http://www.evolutionarynexus.org/jtp_blog .
The document presents a new view of the universe that aims to provide reliable hypotheses about fundamental questions. It argues that previous views are unreliable because some are mystical while others only explain isolated phenomena. A valid view of the universe must integrate all material and immaterial facts into a single logical mechanism that is capable of generating all natural things, including itself. The document introduces a contemporary view presented by Seth Lloyd that sees the universe as a kind of computer whose inputs and outputs are natural reality. It claims this new view can explain the universe in a more intelligent and logical way by seeing it as a huge natural brain, memory and neural network.
This document discusses the 4th world war as a silent war for total human enslavement or eradication. It asserts that we have already lost the 3rd world war, which was an information war capitalized on by powerful entities to create pseudo-realities through overwhelming media. It proposes the possibility of achieving absolute cognition and tapping into a cosmic consciousness without technology by actualizing a fundamental ontology. It argues for canceling the existing social contract paradigm in favor of a new system based on mutually supportive entities rather than survival of the fittest.
General systems theory views the whole as more than the sum of its parts. Characteristics of complex systems emerge from interactions between parts and cannot be explained by examining parts alone. Systems are abstract models that explain some aspect of the world and rules for its operation. A system consists of elements, boundaries, relations, causes, and qualities that are properties of the whole.
Urban Hub 26 Cities, People & Climate Change - Thriveable WorldsPaul van Schaık
A series of books from integralMENTORS Integral UrbanHub work on Thriving people & Thriveable Cities
Too little courage and we will fail – too much certainty and we will fail. But with care and collaboration we have a chance of bringing forth emergent impacts through innovation, syngeneic enfoldment & collaborative effort.
A deeper understanding of a broader framework will be required – this would be more that an integral vision and beyond the Eurocentric AQAL & SDI.

Wilber's integral approach could be improved by making it more fully integral. A truly integral view requires an interplay of all quadrants (AQ) and levels (AL) for every value realization, not just different realms being sufficient on their own. Four types of questions - descriptive, evaluative, normative, interpretive - are each necessary to fully understand a value. This describes a methodologically autonomous but axiologically integral view. The nondual entails robust relationality in value realization beyond problem-solving approaches. Discussing Eastern experiences through only Western metaphysical lenses misses aspects of seeing reality without conceptual processing. Wilber's view could be improved with more nuance around distinctions like the unitary (
Postulating a Metatheory - 2009 - Csaba VargaVarga Csaba
1. The document discusses proposing a metatheory that integrates all forms of human knowledge, including science, philosophy, theology, and art.
2. It outlines three phases of integration: basic theories, supra-theories that integrate basic theories, and a unified theoretical system integrating all levels of knowledge.
3. Several possible starting positions are identified for constructing a metatheory, including that meta-reality and meta-consciousness are interrelated or independent, exist internally or externally, or are created by a higher power. The document argues for allowing all possible starting positions in developing metatheory.
Paper title: Syncretic Social Agency: Deterritorialised Robotics and Mixed Reality Data Transfer Systems.. Apolgies for formatting issues from this being a .doc!!
Wilber's integral approach could be improved by being more fully integral at all times, including when realizing human values. A truly integral approach requires an interplay of all perspectives (quadrants) and levels of understanding for every significant value realized, rather than certain perspectives being sufficient alone. An example given is that fully understanding a topic requires descriptive, evaluative, normative, and interpretive perspectives. Discussing nonduality, the document suggests distinguishing epistemology from ontology, and focusing on nondual experiences as practical and existential rather than theoretical. It advocates appreciating diverse metaphysical perspectives but remaining silent on definitive answers regarding God's nature due to limitations in human understanding.
This document discusses the concepts of nature, culture, subjectivity, and their relationships. It argues that traditionally nature and culture were seen as separate, but discoveries in science have shown that nature has creative potential and works through communication and adaptation, demonstrating a "becoming cultural of nature". Key concepts discussed include Prigogine's work on self-organizing chemical reactions, Simondon's view that subjectivity emerges from an inseparable process, and Deleuze's concepts of potentiality, virtuality and simulacra. The document also discusses Hume's concept of sympathy and how it relates to the production of social institutions and agreements through openness between subjects.
This document discusses the relationship between gestures and diagrams in mathematical thinking and problem solving. It argues that gestures and diagrams are embodied acts that constitute new relationships between people and mathematics, rather than just representations of abstract concepts. The work of philosopher Gilles Châtelet is used to conceptualize gestures and diagrams as mutually dependent, with gestures giving rise to diagrams and diagrams enabling new gestures. Viewing gestures and diagrams this way provides a framework for understanding mathematical thinking and embodiment in a distributed, networked way rather than located within individuals.

Iako nudi konkretna riješenja (ključ u ruke), to je dakako tek skica za javnu raspravu.
Obzirom kako je pitanje HRT-a postalo jedno od gorućih pitanja u RH požurila sam s prijedlogom. Ljudima se oduzima krov nad glavom radi parafiskalnog nameta, što je direktno kršenje građanskih, a i ljudskih prava, zato sam prijedlog i urudžbirala na Ustavni sud.
First draft of a research of the system that transcends the media, creates intelligent and self-aware environment and enables reaching absolute cognition.
Ruminating over essence and infrastructure of the game. If we are to perceive and experience the game not through the set of rules, outcome, punishments and rewards and the goal, but as a set of random occurrences as well as conscious and unconscious decisions, mistakes, context, environment etc., we could be able to deconstruct the infrastructure of the game and get the glimpse of alternate realities. Again, it is not the question of throwing random cards and getting the same outcome as playing by the rules of the game, it is the question of actualizing the new system without touching the infrastructure or creating a new one.
The document introduces the Cornucopia system, which aims to create an idiosyncratic socio-economic system that does not rely on traditional economic paradigms. It argues that previous information systems based on network theory failed because they did not utilize the full power of networks or create truly unique systems. The current socio-economic reality has diverged significantly from Marx's theories of historic materialism and has mutated in ways that produce non-value. There is a need for a new system that can be "uploaded" to address these issues before the existing social contract collapses. The document also suggests revisiting concepts like the labor theory of value and capital as an entity with a will in order to lay the foundation for the
The document discusses the need for a new socio-economic system called Cornucopia to replace the outdated historic materialism model. It proposes that Cornucopia would be based on abundance and sharing resources to meet individual needs and desires, without markets, competition or mass production. It also suggests creating AI modules to test networked modular production units and a complex system to fulfill every individual's needs.

The founder has extensive experience in media and will leverage her expertise to strategically position and market MindBanking in the growing market for online business networking and collaboration services.
The document criticizes Millennials for deepening social inequalities through their reliance on technology and social media. It argues that technology has regressed social development back to a state of workers being dependent on machines. While new technologies were meant to further social evolution, social media has instead created a "media smog" and "hyperreality" that has retarded social progress. The only way forward is to crash the current infrastructure and upload a new system with a new syntax that allows for true social development.
The document is a business plan for MindBanking.com, a global business networking portal. It begins with an executive summary that outlines the company's mission to create an online platform where entrepreneurs can meet, generate business ideas, and develop new opportunities. It then provides details on the company ownership and start-up requirements. The plan describes the various services MindBanking.com will offer, including business networking, working platforms, an investors database, and mobile applications. It analyzes the growing market for online networking and social media, highlighting trends of increasing time spent online and rising revenues for social networking portals.
Business & financial plan for the Institute of Vision and Message from Q4 2010. Nanotechnology, robotics, AI, social development. The Institute would explore reaching social OPTIMUM, Human 2.0 and posthuman society.
Goals would respectively be achieved through deconstruction of all retrograde historic infrastructures and paradigms, which is due to come through deconstruction of retrograde economic structures: division of labor, mass production, competition, value chain and such, and by de-emphasizing its impact on social processes. New plan coming soon.

Trusted Execution Environment for Decentralized Process MiningLucaBarbaro3
Presentation of the paper "Trusted Execution Environment for Decentralized Process Mining" given during the CAiSE 2024 Conference in Cyprus on June 7, 2024.
Dive into the realm of operating systems (OS) with Pravash Chandra Das, a seasoned Digital Forensic Analyst, as your guide. 🚀 This comprehensive presentation illuminates the core concepts, types, and evolution of OS, essential for understanding modern computing landscapes.
Beginning with the foundational definition, Das clarifies the pivotal role of OS as system software orchestrating hardware resources, software applications, and user interactions. Through succinct descriptions, he delineates the diverse types of OS, from single-user, single-task environments like early MS-DOS iterations, to multi-user, multi-tasking systems exemplified by modern Linux distributions.
Crucial components like the kernel and shell are dissected, highlighting their indispensable functions in resource management and user interface interaction. Das elucidates how the kernel acts as the central nervous system, orchestrating process scheduling, memory allocation, and device management. Meanwhile, the shell serves as the gateway for user commands, bridging the gap between human input and machine execution. 💻
The narrative then shifts to a captivating exploration of prominent desktop OSs, Windows, macOS, and Linux. Windows, with its globally ubiquitous presence and user-friendly interface, emerges as a cornerstone in personal computing history. macOS, lauded for its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem, stands as a beacon of stability and creativity. Linux, an open-source marvel, offers unparalleled flexibility and security, revolutionizing the computing landscape. 🖥️
Moving to the realm of mobile devices, Das unravels the dominance of Android and iOS. Android's open-source ethos fosters a vibrant ecosystem of customization and innovation, while iOS boasts a seamless user experience and robust security infrastructure. Meanwhile, discontinued platforms like Symbian and Palm OS evoke nostalgia for their pioneering roles in the smartphone revolution.
The journey concludes with a reflection on the ever-evolving landscape of OS, underscored by the emergence of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the persistent quest for innovation and efficiency. As technology continues to shape our world, understanding the foundations and evolution of operating systems remains paramount. Join Pravash Chandra Das on this illuminating journey through the heart of computing. 🌟

2. Convergence as a Technology of
Social Production
The convergence we are witnessing in our
social reality is not merely convergence of the
media channels, content and technologies; it
is even more so convergence of social
technologies, infrastructures and entities.
Convergence and like phenomena began the
liberalization of the society and its process,
however it seems the infrastructure which
was supposed to liberalize the social
infrastructure failed to accomplish its task,
since yet again it collapsed back into the
social contract and its rigid infrastructure.
3. Suppressed Infrastructure
Not only that the system that came out of six-degrees-of-
separation theory (social networking) is dead, it never
utilized the power of network distribution, as well as
idiosyncratic and whimsical property of the network/neural
system. Furthermore, social media turned superior system
into suppressed infrastructure, which turned social
development retrograde instead of pushing it forward.
4. Zapped out Hypermodernizam
The medium as such, even with the
trendy atomization of the audience
and the hyper-multiplication of
channels, accomplishes its prophet
role and it religious provenience. If
it is possible to turn any medium,
or even any message into a format,
what we have is not only the
atomization of the channels,
rendering the ideology of everyone
is a prophet, we could have the
utter deconstruction of all and any
elements of the medium, format,
metatext and even the text.
5. Can the message cancel itself if
there is no motive to
communicate it and there is no
designated course of its
distribution? Is there a chance for
a hypermessage to gain a body,
interaction and infrastructure?
Can we claim that the
(hyper)mutiplications of formats,
channels and messages, contrary
Zero Point
to Baudrillard’s mantra could
actually be a method to cancel
media and finally arrive at the
bare information and the system
without a reference? Can we
actually emanate a hapax, a
system with high level of entropy
with no reference, which could
endlessly reproduce without any
recollection of the previous
system?
6. Mutation
System that originated from media/technology/social
convergence and network system(s) created a rupture in
social infrastructure and social institutions, although
pseudo, it brought to light or emanated a mutation as a
possible technology for a social development and
abatement of the social contract.
7. The media with no motive to communicate the
message (as one of the technologies of the media thus
social construction or a deconstruction) where possible
implosion of value-chain occurs, is respectively creating
an infrastructure wherein systems emanate constantly
without any reference of recollection of the previously
realized system; in such a system the information could
be detected as an entity which has no relation to its
interpretation, as it is recognized without a mediator,
making the mediator obsolete.
Canceling the Media
8. Deconstruction
Deconstruction of the retrograde socio-political system
should be accomplished through liberalization of the
properties of the system, or via absolute realization of the
network/neural systems through mutation of the social
reality and revisiting the virtual environment and its
interaction with the social. What we could see in such a
scenario is not only the erasing or skewing of the borders
between media and the social body, we could perceive the
main elements of the both systems being deconstructed
simultaneously.
9. The New Syntax
Creation of the new social infrastructure and
canceling the social contract could be
accomplished through the new syntax, or the
new language (a subliminal one perhaps);
furthermore via distribution of the information
that is partial, but merely accomplishes
comprehension through ad hoc grouping in a
multifaceted environment (for the first phase),
until the absolute cognition is accomplished.
10. Free Will and Physics
(the excerpt for movie Waking Life)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vejSAt-MgAM
.
If one chooses to be a gear in a deterministic machine (as the guy in the video does), one chooses to relinquish own
free will, which does or does not constitutes a free will, since the only accomplishment of the free will is the
decision to relinquish the free will in order to become a part of, if I may say so, rather retrograde system.
On the other hand, if one “decides” to recognize oneself as a random swerving of the particles one could gain
absolute freedom since such a choice deconstructs and abates identity, causality, and needless to say a Will as such.
However, how could anything be created if there is no will to do so? Could we then shift the creation and the will to
consciousness and the actualization of the random particles or entities. Furthermore, what if we say that so called
“randomness” isn't randomness at all and it is executed by the complex system, which we couldn't even begin to
comprehend?
11. Causality
Can we comprehend causality as a
rigid infrastructure which stops the
development of a humankind, and
halts our understanding of the
cosmos and our place in it? However,
if the causality is not existent, how
does it relate to particles or entities
as well as their actualization? If all is
just a random swerving without
actualization, there is no
consciousness which could be
equipped for the creation of
anything. Therefore there should be,
or there is a system of immense
complexity, which assumes self-
consciousness and self-actualization
of its objects/particles/entities and in
which the causality is the most
restricted system.

13. The connection between social reality and cosmology is in the
Social and Cosmology
phenomenon in which only some physicist gurus are leading
the development and forcing the scientific community to
comply with the dualism, measurement and other mantras;
which means we could have some serious development in
physics and cosmology if it weren’t for the social adaptation
phenomenon, and if the science would care to go into
ontology, and even more into cognition as such (as Heidegger
calls it “fundamental ontology”, prior to logic, theory or
thought).
Thus the main Problems are:
• The scientific community became a bureaucratic apparatus
• The only way we could understand universe in this stage of
development is through fundamental ontology.
• The syntax we use in creating our reality is inapt to give the
answer to the question of Being (the leading questions of the
ontology (Heidegger).
• Human development and the evolution are halted by the
inadequate philological development, which respectively
leads to a rigid social system (or falling back into the social
contract) unable to employ all its productive, creative and
intellectual forces, and vice verse.
• Clinging to causality, as its disappearance or transformation is
an “uncomfortable” notion for the physicist and the humanity
at large. The same goes for the quantum suppressed
infrastructure, and the perception of the physical and
simulational reality.
14. And... We should reassess Kantian
necessity, possibility, actuality
and causality rigid
infrastructure, as well as the
categories which define time
and space as inner and outer
perception of the “world”.
Furthermore, we need to abate

loose from the mentioned
categories? For Baudrillard
dialectical stage is already
empty! Can we arrive to the
pure information, essence,
Being, with absolute
cognition; and/or can we
finally indulge the Being in
environments of high level
of entropy, parallel universes
and multiple existences.
15. Definite need for the new syntax we can find in the fact
that the leading question in philosophy and ontology
by Heidegger; - What is Being of Being?, has many
philological problems, especially in English. In which
one definition of Being stands for what is the Being as
is, and the other for what is the understanding of Being
as is; bringing us to the conclusion that the Heidegger’s
main question is not ontological but a predominantly
philological one.
It is interesting that some “small” languages (e.g.
Croatian), have the distinction between those two
Beings, not only greatly conveyed but respectively
offer almost instantaneous cognition or a recognition
of the differences of the two idioms/entities.
The Reason
16. The Arbitrariness and the
Absolute
• The other night when watching a show on Discovery channel, the series on parallel universes, my
friend and me were screaming of laughter hearing the theories of the cosmologists; the first
comment my friend had was – our drunken friend has better theories. My comment was: oh yeah,
the universe is a pile of membranes that float in pure reason. It was a joke, however, the theories
physicists are trying to convey are completely arbitrary, and the measurements inadequate and
even more so, redundant, yet they are programmed not to go into fundamental ontology or
cognition.
• Thus my joke: the universe is a pile of membranes which float in pure reason, could be a plausible
theory. The same as: the universe is an idea, a thought, and became by the cognition of self, which
is undividable either from its environment either from its actualization. Nikola Tesla calls it the
Cosmic Reason, Absolute that created everything and at the same time it doesn’t assume any
action.
• But still we need to arrive at the Cosmic Reason without theory, logic, dialectics etc., and become
the one with it.
17. The Solution
Although the solution for the evolutionary quantum leap
cannot be administered as a cough syrup, we cannot move
forward without cognition. Is it a new syntax which is able
to transcend math symbols and philological ones the tool
that could bring us to pure information, and a hapax, a
system without a reference, a new language, a subliminal
one, that makes recognition and cognition instant?
Sumerian language, as well as their comprehension of the
syntax, symbols, cosmos and their relation, came close to
that ideal. No matter if the new syntax is a cause or result
(or both) of the brain-to-brain communication, it could lead
to instant cognition and an evolutionary quantum leap and
the fulfillment of human and neohuman potential as the
first phase of the new evolution.
18. Evolution – the excerpt for the movie Waking Life
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93JkzfCW2yA
“The new evolution
stems from information,
and it stems from two
types of information:
digital and analog. The
digital is artificial
intelligence. The analog
results from molecular
biology, the cloning of
the organism. And you
knit the two together
with neurobiology.
Before on the old
evolutionary paradigm,
one would die and the
other would grow and
dominate. But under the
new paradigm, they
would exist as a mutually
supportive,
noncompetitive
grouping...”
19. In the theory mentioned in
the previous slide the
evolutionary quantum leap is
hapax
assumed through the
information; DNA as an
analogue information and AI
as the digital information, and
its intertwining through
neurobiology in order to
achieve superior social system
(at least in the first phase of
development). The theory
assumed in this presentation
presupposes generating the
new syntax which would
bring us to instant cognition
(without gene or other
manipulation), and a
suprasystem which is going to
make us achieve the
fulfillment of cosmic
potential, or an actualization
per se.
