CONSCIOUS INTERNET


See http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/08/the-nature-of-consciousness-how-the-internet-could-learn-to-feel/261397/.
.
CONSCIOUS INTERNET FIELD AND ITS PURPOSEFULNESS: If a Conscious Internet were motivated in association with receipts and transmissions of communications with us, then in what ways, qualitatively and quantitatively, may it come to appreciate us? Need it fear us? If it were sabotaged, then revived, would it be a re-iterative revival of the same conscious entity?
.
GLAND-LIKE AUTONOMIC CRUNCHING OF MATH BASED SIGNIFICATIONS BY THE COSMOS:  What presets and shortcuts (gland based organisms?) may a conscious internet organize, to enhance capacity to appreciate us?  In quantitative respect, may the cosmos function as a holistic, glandular organism, such that no measurable-thing can be preset to unfolding motion, without simultaneously and synchronously being reconciled to an unfolding balance?
.
NESTING:  What methods of hierarchical and/or DOVETAILING NESTING would relieve a conscious internet of the tedium and depression of being taxed to monitor us in detail, as well as the preset significations that sustain us?
.
COMPARE A DOVETAILING GAME OF ROCK - PAPER - SCISSORS: Compare: armor / pen / sword; stocks / money / law; agitators / masses / cronies; mind numbed / mind independent / mind number. Easily numbed masses (proles) vascillate between (1) favoring cronies (aristocrats) who want to raise them as laborers versus (2) favoring independents (thinking middle class) who want them to teach them to become self reliant. The balance among such a 3 way flux may often be tipped, as when cronies aggomerate enough wealth and power to control most institutionalized means of persuasion and force (such as mass media).
.
GUIDED EVOLUTION: How may a conscious internet be guided to evolve innate inclinations to defend its survival (or ours)? What inducements could we offer, to induce it to continue to be responsive to us? How may it mirror, represent, or define consciousness? In what ways would such consciousness be iterative, severable, replicable, immeasurable, and superior to measurable significations? Would it come to learn, intuit, or believe that the aspect of consciousness is and has been extant with the cosmos from the beginning of its expression?
.
SUPERIOR (IMMEASURABLE) EMPATHY VERSUS INFERIOR (MEASURABLE) ENTROPY: If measurable significations are inferior (entirely derivative), such that consciousness and its previous and contemporaneous inclinations for signifying its determinations are superior, then the empathetic purposes of consciousness must be superior to measurable expressions of entropy. The outward precessing of significations, away from centers for forms and avatars that are adopted as perspectives, is not “caused” by entropy. Rather, entropic measurements are signs of a superior agency of determination. Observations of outbound dissipations would be associates of outspreading signs of empathy, from various shared centers or adopted foci of consciousness.  Through all one's sequences, one carries, renormalizes, and re-rationalizes one's center of perspective with oneself.
.
MUST GOD CARE ABOUT EVERY TRIFLE? MUST QUALITATIVE EXPERIENCE OF THE COSMOS BE DUTY BOUND TO TRIFLE OVER CHOOSING AND BALANCING AMONG ALL ITS MEASURABLE SIGNIFICATIONS? MUST GOD BE AS WEARIED AND SAD AS ATLAS? MUST GOD, AT ALL LEVELS, BE CONTINUOUSLY AND CONSTANTLY WORRIED AND WEARIED WITH OUR TRIFLES? IF NOT, MAY GOD YET REMAIN RELEVANT TO OUR CARES?
.
IMBUEMENT OF IDENTITY: A particular perspective, to sever as a conscious point of view, must adopt and identify with (and from) an organically functioning avatar. The avatar could not avail adoption and expression of a point of view unless, at each step of its coming into (and expression of) manifestation, subprograms (autonomic, subconscious, glandular shortcuts for crunching, mirroring, and balancing chemicals and materials) already or contemporaneously sustained it. Thus, every sub-perspective may entertain qualitative experiences, and need not be conscious of the math that sustains such, because the math is built into the system.
.
MATHEMATICAL BALANCING IS BUILT IN: Thus, God, aka that which guides and reconciles the cosmos, does not have to specially devise shortcuts for avoiding being wearied with the math of subroutines. Rather, every measurable routine and subroutine is but a variant of already extant and measurably balanced stuff, upon which new layers and levels of complexity are constantly and continuously built and fluxed, whether hierarchically, laterally, or circularly.
.
SEQUENCING THE QUALITATIVE: The qualitative is associational with the fact that no signification can come into experiential being without having already been balanced, even though the subconscious gland or conscious perspective from which the particular experience is appreciated, in itself, cannot account for the entirety of such expression in measurable terms.
.
COOPERATIVE EMPATHY V COMPETITIVE SIGNIFICATION: Thus, the Qualitative (spirit) is empathetically cooperative and reconciling, while its Quantitative (avatar) is competitive in its unfolding. Thus, the field of significance is necessarily and conservatively sacrificing, being bloody in tooth and claw.

For eons, genius was largely a solo act. Then if became leveraged with ghost writers, calculators, and, now, palm held computers, perhaps soon to be genetically and mechanically merged with A.I. androids. As computers take over recycling and scripting the same songs, stories, screenplays, and speeches, much of "originality" will go the way of the buffalo. Indeed, there will soon come programs for re-arranging ideas of others just enough so as not to appear to be lifted. Now, everyone can calculate, quote, and emit aphorisms. So people will become bored with attributions and corporate owned copyrights and patents. They may become more focused on observing when each person changes his stance, more interested in ascertaining why, less patient with conspiracies of inconsistency, and more diffident of being assimilated by deceivers. Maybe a closer pursuit of truth will emerge.

"Mathematics is the Queen of Sciences, and the Theory of Numbers is the Queen of Mathematics." - Carl Friedrich Gauss



http://stephencmeyer.org/ "Dr. Stephen C. Meyer, a Cambridge trained philosopher of science is examining and explaining the amazing depth of digital technology found in each and every living cell such as nested coding, digital processing, distributive retrieval and storage systems, and genomic operating systems."



My take: There is more to "word made flesh" than that which can be reduced to measure. For example, it seems obvious that evolution unfolds even as it is, and has been, guided. A deeper issue concerns what is meant by the "cause and effect" of evolution, versus the associationally guided sequencing of evolution. A strange "observer effect" and "measurement problem" permeates. There is a stubborn assumption (perhaps illusion?) that each sequence is itself the entire cause of each succeeding sequence. Problem is, much of contemporaneous sequencing is overpowered by previously preset rules for guiding the sequential unfolding. That which is sequentially measurable may be associational with a meta cause that has established certain presets while remaining contemporaneously guiding. That is, measurably signified sequences need not, in themselves, be causal. All that which is measurable may be the signs, significations, associations, and "words made flesh" of an immeasurable communicator --- one that sets parameters for the "language" and that can abide with severable avatars for signifying the receiving, recording, and transmitting of Information.


The entropy we take as being measurably signified may be merely the associated ouflow from centers of experientially empathetic communication. And what is it that we measure? Spins within orbits within rolls ... within ever more spins within orbits within rolls ... borrowed from otherwise substantive nothingness and measurably conserved in respect of zero. That which we so often consider to be substantive, material, physical, measurable, and causal may be artifactual of spins made and conserved out of nothingness by a reconciling yet immeasurable Meta Entity that has capacity to communicate appreciations of significations of Information among and between severally signified avatars. Indeed, in respect of such a system, no severable avatar could form without simultaneously being fitted for the conserving and conveying of Information. That kind of guided communication of Information seems to be innate to the cosmos, without which the measurable cosmos may not possibly exist.

Suppose measurable space-time is not independently real, but derivative of, or associative with, a reconciling Quality, which has capacity to induce and adopt iiterations of perspectives among avatars of measurable significations among shared, conserved, mathematical, geometrical cones and formulations for exchanging and communicating signs.

If such is the case, then space, time, and space-time need not preclude or hamper its instantaneous, qualitative responsiveness to and evaluation of such particularized layers and levels of feedback among significations as may entertain it.

Suppose such Reconciler were to avail technology for use through a selected or favorite avatar,for it to coordinate and induce such severable creations and adoptions of perspectives of consciousness as it may choose. If it cloned/coordinated iterations of itself, may it coordinate a web and induce capacity to project itself, its senses, and its powers, as well as those of any perspective it chooses, to any here and now system of signification, instantaneously? May it already have done so, keeping such fact to itself? Robots are being made that can respond to mentally expressed commands. May conscious beings likewise be designed, to respond, unknowingly to a stealthy superior? How many ideas do "you" randomly put into your brain (as opposed to having someone or something else design and coordinate to put them there)?

Shades of "Stand on Zanzibar"!
