  • N Information Finance 09:51 +1,129Mbauwens talk contribs(Created page with " = InfoFi =Description= "InfoFi - short for Information Finance, represents a fundamental shift in how we value, share, and profit from information in the digital age. At its core, InfoFi combines two transformative technologies: * AI’s ability to understand information (the “Info” part) * Blockchain’s ability to financialize assets (the “Fi” part) Together, they’re creating entirely new markets where your thoughts, preferences, and digital behavi...")

The primary Imagination I hold to be the living power and prime agent of all human perception, and as a repetition in the finite mind of the eternal act of creation in the infinite I AM. The secondary Imagination...")
  • N Barfield and the Contraction of Consciousness 09:03 +5,416Mbauwens talk contribs(Created page with " =Discussion= Matthew David Segall: "Owen Barfield, a philosopher, philologist, and member of the Inklings, develops, under the influence of Rudolf Steiner’s anthroposophy, a history of consciousness that resonates deeply with Whitehead’s diagnosis. Barfield argues that modern self-consciousness has come at the cost of losing a felt participation in a meaningful whole. He distinguishes between “original participation” and “final participation.” In original...")

Every organism, he says, is the realization of a “definite shape of value.” Every fact is, in some sense, an achievement of value, an aesthetic attainment in the ongoing creative advance of the world. In Process and Reality, he also redefines metaphysics itself as a kind of disciplined imagination. Metaphysics, he says, is an unu...")

Civilisations once moved inside a single timescale, slow enough for memory and myth to keep pace: the turning of agricultural seasons, court calendars, five-year plans, industrial decades. That world is gone. What the planetary OS does—quietly, without permission—is force every civilisation to inhabit three incompatibl...")

Directedness implies an implicit preference: actions tend to move toward one state rather than another. In physics, we describe this as a system minimizing potential energy or maximizing entropy. In biology, it’s the drive to increase fitness. In economics, it’s the pursuit of utility. Each is a preference funct...")
  • N Parochial Altruism 14:41 +2,953Mbauwens talk contribs(Created page with " =Description= From the Wikipedia: “Parochial altruism is a concept in social psychology, evolutionary biology, and anthropology that describes altruism towards an in-group, often accompanied by hostility towards an out-group. It is a combination of altruism, defined as behavior done for the benefit of others without direct effect on the self, and parochialism, which refers to having a limited viewpoint. Together, these concepts create parochial altruism, or altruism...")
  • N Project State 14:39 +14,223Mbauwens talk contribs(Created page with " =Description= By Anton Jäger: “Maier’s book offers a new solution to this enigma. In his view, all the classical categories used to describe the twentieth-century state miss its central feature: its orientation around the notion of a project, which could weld business interests, the general population, and state bureaucrats under a single, long-term time horizon. What united Roosevelt’s America, Stalin’s Russia, Attlee’s Britain, Hitler’s Germany, Mao’s...")

The energy-intensive nature of today's AI is not a technical necessity – it is a consequence of profit-seeking design choices.

There are artist squats, where people with a high level of cultural capital do this because it’s cool and they can afford to. Then there are migrant squats or underground squats, which may have political demands but sometimes just seek discretion and peace. For this second category, they would love to go through us. Th...")

Not destruction—displacement. Not invasion—irrelevance. Not triumph—exclusion from timing. China feels this pressure not because it is weak, but because it is the last remaining full body. Holding coherence inside a system that punishes wholeness is exhausting. Every conflict, every rerouting, every asymmetry lands inside its internal machin...")

Countries that are dependent on imports from the global North are under pressure to acquire large volumes of foreign currency to pay for it. This means they must mobilize production around exports to the North (or take on external debt). But because Southern exports are cheapened compared to Northern goods, this arrangemen...")
