_µT_m Scenarios, T₁₅(M)

In the Author's Note to his novel River God (Macmillan, 1993), Wilbur Smith recounts his reaction to contents of scrolls he helped transcribe, dated to 1780 B.C., and which were discovered in alabaster vases in a crypt on the west bank of the Nile in the Valley of the Nobles. Quoting: “I am left with a realization of how little the emotions and aspirations of man have changed in all that time…” Despite how obviously the case that nothing ever happened as history records it, a similar realization has led me to believe that glutamatergic etching of the molecular-cellular brain, and associated quantum quenching, progressively buffered off conscious awareness of m-logically-valued processing, and associated direct experience of relative-state identity-transparency, beginning, probably, with the last great Ice-Aged climate-shift -- not from a later memetime period. This “buffered off ” interior-dimensions monitor-freeze-up of the { _µI_m <--> _µT_m <--> ₁T₂ } TzogChen AllBase, IMHO, Gurdjieff referred to with the term “Kundabuffer”, its ₁T₂-projected regressed-econometric form being what Zero Hedge calls “111011010010101010101011 Buffer Overflow”, any higher-order of logical-value -- _µT_m-indicies greater than 1 and 2 -- being “overflow” to ₁T₂-buffers, with respect to logics and/or financial instruments/currencies. Nowhere-vanishing _µI_m-holonomy of n-forms over Kahler M -- bundled most trivially? Hmmm. Section an Abelian quintic, Calabi-Yau three-fold, if you can separate operator-time from the space operated upon. TARDIS is not TARDY -- at least not at relative absolute limiting values of dynamical variables under 3-fold operator-time. Heh-heh-heh! Faster-than-c neutrino? Which m-value of c, relative to what temporal-density as a function of temporal-curl? Reestablish non-binary options with high-speed optical-switched interior Musculpt as mathematical notation, wherein: the data is the processor; the processor, the data. What has changed enormously, though, is human population of planet Earth. One factor involved, Val McDermid characterizes especially well in her PI fiction book Blue Genes (HarperCollins, 1996, pp. 215-6 and 229):

If I'd learned one thing from Chris's relentless drive toward pregnancy, it was the overwhelming obsessive power of a childless woman's desire for motherhood. Chris once described the feeling as possession. “It's there as soon as you wake up, and it's there until you go back to sleep,” she'd explained. “Some nights, it even invades your dreams. Nothing matters except being pregnant. And it stops as soon as your body realizes it's pregnant…”

“…But I had this crazy idea that even if I couldn't have a child myself, at least my genes might continue. And if all else had failed, at least I could have made an egg donation to someone who needed it.”

Possession, participation inconsciente, participation mystique, contagion, identification: these words, at the very least, connote regression of authentic m-logically-valued quantal relative-state identity-transparency. So, the “overwhelming obsessive power” involved here might reasonably be attributed, not to competitive genes (genes being in relative-state by virtue of the superconductant status of free-electron gas core of DNA, a physical state of the genome well worth denying if individualism and social-Darwinian markets are an obsession, which is not to mention harder weapons systems designed by physicists hopping between Los Alamos and Wall Street), but to the glutamatergic neuronal etching which denies access to direct conscious awareness of full-blown identity-transparency, the experience of carrying a child to term being the closest approach permitted to the glutamate-etched human cognition (doubt this, having come up in a socialization-heavy society where sideburns were once virtually a felony and holocaust hair is now nearly a norm, even though financial haircuts have yet to fad in?). Since 'e wouldn't take a tellin', or a bit of seein' to, she turned off Hath'erage onto Roachdale Road oft mistaken for Kingsway. Jus' aboot to reenter Wagner's Ring Cycle, what. Shouldanae no' left 'im kipin', she should've, shouldnae't she hoov. O, nae, men jus' wannabes mice! Bumf, bumf, and more bumf. Callin' upon fertility drugs from the IMF, for in vitro subfertility Rx: jus' one more case of collective-projective conversion-displacement by way of avoiding implementation of m-logically-valued monetary units? Cave without whinage or whinge, y'chuddering eaters of the pub barm served up by HMSO -- or so they seem to say.

At least since immediate aftermath of WWI, the only approach to the global energy problem which Cartesian-Newtonian governments have taken seriously enough to effectively act upon has been war. I developed some awareness of oil “politics” while at JFK Special Warfare Center functioning as an intelligence analyst on the Middle East in run up to the Arab-Israeli Six Day war. That awareness has yet to register any real variance from this committed governmental approach. From the period in the early-'60s during which I read and reread C. G. Jung's Modern Man in Search of a Soul, I've held (and argued) that this energy-problem behavior, and very much else besides, is indicative that a prior collective unconscious “decision” for human species self-annihilation has been made (taken, I believe, during the 1820s by hysterical reaction against the extra-mathematical imports of Abel's “Impossibility Theorem” existence proof for transalgebras). Nothing I've seen in the intervening period (early-'60s until now) has in any significant way tended to dissipate this believe on my part. The various holocausts of the 20th-century may well have been test runs of a collective-unconscious archetypal, search algorithm. Put crimes against humanity in perspective during this era of crimes against the ecosphere, crimes against the magnetosphere, and, physics be not dissimulated, crimes against the solar system. But say, by giving the benefit of the doubt, that it isn't really all that bad: final collective “decision” for an enduring solution has not yet been made, only tentatively so. Then, what to do? I had a little taste of this during the Viet Nam war (the associated inner state persisting indefinitely at very low-grade), and knew a few who took big bites of it: on the battlefield, one has real freedom to move only once one has embraced the likelihood of one's death -- and affirmed it (the involved altered state engendering insight in respect to transalgebraic identity, insofar as one is inclined so to “recognize”). A further recognition is that this altered state is an infantile pathological regression of something far more elaborate which cannot possibly be entered upon by means of a warfare-induced embrace of the death of one's ₁T₂-identity. What to do is elaborate neuropsychological, social, political, economic and technological analogues to that “something far more elaborate” which is not infantile, not pathological, and not regressive. As regards the global energy problem, and on the back of arguing that, “We are trapped in an endless feedback loop of doom [think Ptolemaic epicycles in e-physics: energy and econo]”, Jim Quinn points the way. Quoting from, “Energy Independence, the Big Lie” [and also the issuance of an existential denial to Buddhist believers in “dependent origination” and physicist believers in the quantum-composite equivalent, G's: “relative-state” reciprocal maintenance ], The Burning Platform, 14 November 2011:

We need to prepare our society to become more local… If our society acted in a far sighted manner, we would be creating communities that could sustain themselves with local produce, local merchants, bike paths, walkable destinations, local light rail commuting, and local energy sources. The most logical energy source for the U.S. in an oil scarce scenario is electricity, since we have a substantial supply of coal and natural gas for the foreseeable future and the ability to build small nuclear power plants. The Fukushima disaster is likely to kill nuclear as an option until it is too late. The electrical grid should be the number one priority of our leaders, as it would be our only hope in an oil scarce world.

Though I don't agree with Quinn concerning fission/fusion miniaturization -- as, for one reason, I believe a hot/cold-fusion techno breakthrough would simultaneously be a population-bomb disaster for planet Earth (actually, an exponentiation of the one existing), insuring that, by synoptic consequences of the Second Law (sans operator-time and all that bumf), no energy-employment framework whatsoever utilized by the human species could be sustainable -- I do agree with the necessity for localization-without-localization over boundaries-without-boundary by means of upgrading Wheeler's magic-without-magic via a Lukasiewiczian pregeometry of reserve currency domain and nesting foams of that domain's decomposed variously-backed, vehicular-only LETS -- likely the sole means, autopoietic to be sure, by which Quinn's “more local” could authentically be accomplished. But accomplished by what, in what? By Cartesian-Newtonian nation-states and supraordinate agglomerations? In the prevailing world economy with its plethora of pathologies? Yes and yes would be the most non-violent answers; but, alas, one can hardly vest much belief in those yeses. A more likely scenario, if something of this sort is to transpire at all, is by and in “The Shadow Superpower”, as described by Robert Neuwirth (author of Stealth of Nations: The Global Rise of the Informal Economy, Random House, 2011, an author who spent two years in squatter communities, something I began doing rarely from 1968, and which Roxanne Brown did predominantly from the early-'70s, and “Akha Jim” has done from the mid-'70s), Foreign Policy, 28 October 2011. And also most probable, heh-heh-heh -- given all else likely to transpire as such a far-from-equilibrium phase transition cusps over -- is the ₁T₂-proposition that the resultant m-logically-valued LETS will be low-tech implemented, not by means of anything like Musculpt interface, fractal e-boundaries, and so on. In days primordial, Lukasiewiczian LETS, of StoneAge economie, were constituted of hau, the animistic relative-state identity-transparency of giver-receiver, where the object exchanged was not the object of exchange. With the Martian Old Ones, and speaking karmically to Last and First Men: seek nothing, suffer nothing. Endorsement by history has clearly been bestowal of the Mark of Kane -- given what humanity has done on and to this planet.

As a great example of blackpsyche within the sciences, I'd love to, but won't, quote five running paragraphs -- guess which five -- from the following NewScientist article: “Revealed: the capitalist network that runs the world”, Andy Coghlan and Debora MacKenzie, 24 October 2011. Concentration of power is not necessarily a problem, y'see, no more than concentration of risk or/and debt, for instance, especially to those believers in the Cartesian-Newtonian Weltanschauung who wish to ignore the Devil's Staircase. What is most certainly a problem is appearance of quantum properties in realms appropriately managed, it is felt, by those well-schooled in the soft sciences: e.g., properties producing echoes of Uber-Determinerung determineert determineertabel determineren determinerend determinerende und Superintegration via the over-correlation which is the _µT_m-valued relative-state identity-transparency actually responsible for autopoiesis. What the Brits leave out, Americans stick in -- and vice versa: e.g., “had done” instead of “had done so”; “would have done” instead of “would have”. That the apparent complementarity involved here is a matter of class correspondence can be surmised by consideration of the more elaborate case wherein the Americans reference left-and-right to the egoic subject (if not the Uber-Ich) while the Vietnamese, say, reference left-and-right to what once was directly experienced in ontic immediacy as the animistic object.

What is a Hoo-ah! hilarious hoot to me is the widespread cognitive loony-bin tape-loop which drones that a saving of the euro could conceivably save the euro, and thus could conceivably save the EU -- primary purpose of the EU, and hence determiner of its structure and function (likely could be surmised from readables on sMRI and fMRI samplings), having not been economic, was, rather, to save Europe from war with herself. The present crisis is obviously global, obviously systemic, obviously indicative of institutional failure secondary to paradigm failure tertiary to Weltanschauung failure (which is not to mention generalized brain impairment, a 40% incidence of mental illness, and the normotic having become normative; for the latest in findings, see: “Frequent gamers have brain differences, study finds”, Eryn Brown, Los Angeles Times, 15 November 2011) -- so, under such planetary circumstances, how could saving the euro possibly save the euro or, for that matter, how could saving the euro save the dollar as international reserve currency or, ultimately, as domestic U.S. legal tender (for an interesting scenario on this, see: “The Real Contagion Risk”, Chris Martenson, 24 October 2011)? It is irrelevant whether or not Germany destroys herself in order to save herself (see: “To Save the Euro We Must Destroy Germany”, Mish's Global Economic Trend Analysis, 17 November 2011) or recoils from instinctual transference-conflict with France (see the following article and note the photo-op recorded: “Eurozone bond markets in turmoil as France and Germany dig in over ECB”, Graeme Wearden and Katie Allen, The Guardian, 16 November 2011) and lurches into the bonding values offered by Russia's waiting arms, for no variation upon 69 (e.g., the IMF borrowing from the ECB so as to bailout the ECB's bailout efforts), within a ₁T₂-logically-valued framework, can authentically be autopoietic, only a source of errant stimulation. Such self-feeding epicycles! Insuring an econometric roll-cloud TILT by accentuating the positive, suppressing the negative. Nor will going forward into the past, into the 18th and 17th centuries, into federation -- full fiscal-political union, even if it were totally consensual -- save the euro, the EU, Europe, not given the massive infusions of quantum-based technologies made during the 20th century. Infusions of confusion? Recent major precipitators -- by conversion-displacement on the level of collective-unconscious compensatory abreaction -- of economic, political, and military instability, conflict, strife: outcomes of the Aspect experiments; demonstrations that even molecules can be at more than one place at a given memetime; discovery, at experiment, that light travels faster than light; replication of the Italian OPERA experiment showing neutrinos move more rapidly than the absolute limiting velocity permits. Not only is Newton dead, so are Heisenberg and Einstein. Suppression of an analogical-models institutional upgrade from Cartesian-Newtonian to quantum-relativity persisted so long that restoration of correspondence between Weltanschauung and institutionalization must now leapfrog tropological metareferences to the quantum-relativity paradigm: just try to imagine the amount of violence inevitably involved in that far-from far-from-equilibrium phase transition. Reliance upon received wisdom, not achieved wisdom. As the advertising slogan exhorts: “Reclaim your brain”! According to my lights, and in my admittedly not so humble opinion on this matter, the primary deep-structure reason why WWII was fought was to keep m-valued Polish logics suppressed and tied to truth-value, to keep them from being employed to interpret Schrödinger's m-valued wave-function, to keep those logics and quantum-relativity “weirdness” from being generalized into the social sciences and applied to analysis of, and experimentation upon, the middle scale levels studied by some hard sciences (e.g., atmospheric science -- and please do note the correlation with present-day politico-economic events such as those mentioned immediately above: Russians have been applying relativity theory to studies of atmospheric processes since the early-1920s, an application rejected unto this day by those in the West committed to a “classical limit”, which is one aspect of why anthropogenic climate-shift is so fraught for the AngloSaxonAmerican mind, because very existence of such applications, particularly if valid and the processes involved linked to anthropogenic climate-shift, kills Newton by allowing non-Newton into the middle scale levels, a “fact of the matter” which must be concealed by focusing exclusively upon greenhouse warming as sole causal agency, or by altogether denying existence of an ongoing climate-shift). In context of such origins of WWII were Alan Turing and cohort coercively induced into choices made which yielded the finite-iteration, ₁T₂-logical Turing Machine and its first major accomplishment: aiding in the breaking of the Nazi Enigma cipher codes. The whole of current computer science, cybernetics in general, and many of the tacit assumptions informing the neurosciences -- including the very idea that science of cognition is primarily neuro in nature -- were yield from, or reinforced by, the choices coercively induced under pressures of war from Alan Turing and cohort. Origins of WWII and imports thereof, thus, are indistinguishable. Inspired portrait of the postwar historian -- committed to Collingwood-Popper historiography -- at his work:

McBride [uh, uh, MacPride] knew the war held few beneficial secrets to ambitious historians, especially one who had chosen the market-place to make his mark rather than the groves of academe that had seemed to slight and undervalue him for so long. All the bodies had been dug up… had all received their popular historical exploitation… His hand had quivered, his breath seeming to be held throughout, as he read and re-read… On the edge of the moment, he indulged in the comforting, comfortable prognostications. Print runs, contracts, sales figures… (Craig Thomas, Emerald Decision, HarperCollins, 1980, pp. 13-4).

But all this was, IMHO, a late riff run upon glutamate-etched and quantum-quenched human brain -- local and nonlocal, IBEed and OBEed, molecular-cellular and quantum -- a late jazzing of the experimental-data pool accomplished by ₁T₂-observer-state and derivative ₁T₂-type instrumentation employed at quantum measurement of object systems (thus exclusively imposing a particular subject-observer/object order-type of measurement dictating largely-binary outcomes, anthropic-principled single-valued universal physical constants, and maintenance of the “classical limit”). That being held by me to be the case, I simply do not take the experimental “facts” created by modern physicists at face value -- and, consequently, believe a full-face transplant is in order. Given this history, how could the prevailing scientific characterization of the accelerating planetary crisis be adequate? It could not be so, and therefore expectation as to a large percentage of human survivors at cuspover is certainly farfetched -- absent a decisive omnitransforming shift away from ₁T₂-valued logic only. It is in this context that I view D. G. Leahy's focus upon “real trinary logic”, a logic schema which I find fascinating, if not really trivalent in the Lukasiewicz-Post sense. Just how fascinating can be seen by Leahy's comments on “virtually left-handed real trinary logic” and “Neutrinos Faster Than Light?”. Though I would hasten to direct the reader's attention to Douglas A. Paine's account of what temporal curl, at tornadogenesis, does to twisting axes of rotation, their xyz-components of spin, magnitudes and helicities involving lmn-caps, not only ijk-caps (see: “The Discovery of a Superconductant Exchange of Hydrothermodynamic Properties Associated with a Limited Domain of the Atmosphere”). Just as with respect to neutrinos, in the atmospheric case, c is nesting-foamed inside c inside c and so on unto C-dusti, as is c-prime and c-double-prime (see: “Toward a General Theory of Process”). This is where m-valued universal physical constants come in, and why -- even at the middle scale levels -- really m-valent Lukasiewicz-Post logics are required: Veilbein intercourse with Hermann Wyle's point-set topology of the Riemann surface representation of m-valued functions (insofar as I could glean understanding, mostly via secondary sources) and his reflections upon eeeeeeee! pie eye (see, memory of Cornell days serving: Symmetry, Princeton U. Press, 1952; I now find, in looking up this publication date, that Wyle's 1918 Das Kontinuum was not translated until 35 years after 1952, and hence, his work on nature of continua did not directly figure into our thought, though I independently resonated with certain aspects of Husserl and Cassirer, some of which Wyle incorporated into his thought) greatly facilitating, in the day, discussions with Paine. Consider that selfsameness and identity are not in all respects equal, that any identity is distinguishable from any equality, that mathematical identity is not identity-transparency, just as “generative empathy” -- experiencing the experience of an “other” -- cannot be full-blown identity-transparency because the experience of any “other”, in being “other”, is necessarily ₁T₂-logically bounded, whereas authentic identity-transparency is minimally _µT_m-logically boundaried-without-boundary and, more elaborately, is in quantum relative-state by virtue of _µI_m-logical holomorphism. Hence, in “speaking” of this “suchness”, we did not use a wave equation, but a wave statement. Musculpt as mathematical notation is required to actually make the unspeakable “speakable” (not to mention: make a user-friendly interface to _µT_m-valued reserve-currency-domain AllBase, the only really real way to “save the euro”).

Yet another great example of OSS-MO (morale operations) techniques as applied by the mainstream media: quoting from “Hungary likely source of elevated radioactivity levels: IAEA”, AFP, 17 November 2011:

Officials said the amount of the radioactive element released was equivalent to 0.01 microsieverts. The average person is exposed to 2,400 microsieverts annually through background radiation.

That 0.01 microsieverts (unit of energy per unit of mass) released is per what unit of memetime? Nanosecond, microsecond, second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year? If per hour, then the release, from this reputed source in Hungary, was less than 100 microsieverts annually, when the real issue vetted in this article is magnitude of the measurements of the radioactive iodine blanket made in the half-a-dozen countries involved relative to the release per unit of memetime of the source identified as probable by the IAEA. The article actually tells the reader what? Nothing. Repetitive use -- by nanosecond, microsecond, second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year? -- of the myriad dysinformation techniques, such as this one (leaving out an essential element of an equivalency statement), is by accident? Is dictated? If so, by whom? Or is it: by what? By glutamate-etched brain unable to tolerate realistic assessments? By regressed archetypal event gradients of the collective unconscious? By all of the above? In face of this behavior, what human survival rate percentage at cuspover can one realistically entertain an expectation for -- were one inclined to develop realistic expectations?

On OWS + clones, John Gray of The Guardian has written the most interesting piece I've seen: “The Occupy movements are the realists, not Europe's ruling elites”, 15 November 2011. But notice the incoherence at core of even this article. Quoting the article:

Despite the claims of some protesters, what is required is not a full-scale retreat from globalisation -- though that may happen as countries seek shelter -- but a more restrained version of globalisation in which worldwide linkages grow organically, and different countries are not penalised for having different economic systems. A more fragmented world could also be a more stable world. A body of common rules would still be necessary, but there would be no attempt to force convergence on a single type of capitalism. Governments could act as brakes on market forces, rather than -- as at present, when they have taken on the debt of reckless banks -- being in the position of overleveraged or insolvent hedge funds.

The trouble is that there is no global institution with the authority to frame the necessary reforms. In our multipolar, or non-polar, world, the deciding forces are geopolitical.

Gray explicitly advocates a unipolar global institution capable of inculcating a more fragmented world via worldwide organic linkages grown on the basis of a body of common rules undoubtedly to be promulgated like ISO-whatever, dress codes, proper usage, and all the other forms of glutamatergically-etched prescriptive enculturation. This grown-down version of global Fiskalunion anatomy differs little from Merkel's concept of the further political union of the EU offered under tout-sloganeering dysinformation as being actual growing-up of financial integration. More likely a rumpling touse -- especially so, given that nowadays Weimar Berlin polymorphous perverse has been globalized, and the need for planetarized strong [leader}ship has thus become exponentiated. The general systems theory -- arrived at from studies of natural systems -- informing this vision of politico-economic organization is opaque to me. The only way I can explain to myself presence of such an idea is emergence by flailing-about desperation within confines of a (Cartesian-Newtonian) worldview construct so foundered that the notions of natural law (“physics degree zero”) and logical necessity (Lukasiewicz, and Gödel's proof by logical Klein-bottle cognitively expectorated in compensatory abreaction as financial schema) have been defunct for nearly a century. Furthermore, Gray enunciates the following assertion, with no hint of a justifying argument in accompaniment: “While totalitarian mass movements of the sort seen in the 30s are not going to return, Europe's demons have not gone away.” Given omnipresence of growing-down ideas, why should I believe there can be no such return -- with techno upgrade, of course?

Order requires a single manager, a unified command, didn'tyaknow, each element reporting to a final authority, even if that authority be checked-and-balanced, advised-and-consented, countervailed, federated -- Love's Body, fratricide in preference to patricide conducted according to General Robert's Rules of Order : why, why, look at any organism, any swarm of swarms, heh-heh-heh! -- “For what is the heart but a spring?”, preface to Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan, 1651, foundation of the “social contract”. Note that when Niall Ferguson cites the 17th-century fixation of 21st-century mind (see Paul Farrell's characterization of Ferguson's recently released book Civilization: The West and the Rest : “China vs. USA bout: 6 rounds to oblivion”, MarketWatch, 15 November 2011) he is not referring to disjunction between institutionalization and Weltanschauung. The answer to “too many minds” is a top-down-united, global-egoic ₁T₂-mind -- or _µT_m-no-mind? I once approached the CEO of a small corporation (not the Singapore ThinkTank company) specialized in improving biofeedback equipment, developing new applications software, and selling both -- approached in an attempt to interest him in the problems of getting multi-modal biofeedback into the Lilly flotation-isolation tank as a preliminary to developing Musculpt as mathematical notation. During the ensuing conversation, I raised the subject of the quantum aspects of brain function. That, essentially, ended the conversation. He said that he was not interested in anything quantum about the brain, for he was now a businessman focused upon making money, and if there was anything he had learned from twenty years as a research physicist it was that you do not make money by focusing upon a multiplicity of probability amplitudes. I agreed, but knew it would be wasted breath to ask him: Money of which order of logical-value do you speak? The answer to “too many currencies” is a top-down-united, global-egoic ₁T₂-currency -- or _µT_m-no-currency “reserve” AllBase reference-space domain? In context of such questions, I find myself changing the date given in the following quotation to 1932 (see: “European ERM 1992 Replay: Same Problems, Same Issues, Same Countries, Only the Politicians Differ; Irony of the Maastricht Treaty”, Mish's Global Economic Trend Analysis, 20 November 2011):

To me, it seems like an inevitable march down the same road -- same players, same dithering, same posturing, same lack of attention to any of the real problems, same case of refusing to deal with any of the real issues -- and sadly, the issues in 1992 were EXACTLY THE SAME as they are today.

Change the date, think deep-structure rather than surface-structure, and one can see EXACTLY THE SAME issues in origins of both WWII and PW1. I note that I am not alone in having thought of 1932 (see, for a chart featuring 1932: “Wall Street Analysts Everywhere Are In Agreement: THE WORLD IS ENDING”, Joe Weisenthau, Business Insider, 21 November 2011), though unemployment seems to me surface-structure, not deep-structure. At least the world-picture is ending; the world, surely, will take a while longer. Quoting the article:

…he [SocGen's Dylan Grice] cranked it up a notch, comparing Germany's policy today against the policies that enabled the rise of Hitler. Specifically, he said that post-Weimar, Germany became too aggressive about fighting inflation, thus prompting deflation, thus prompting more unemployment, thus enabling the rise of the Nazis.

One can only hope that no Higher Bitesize historical analogy grows up establishing some sort of connection between Neville Chamberlain and David Cameron. Instructive in this regard is: “Will Cameron Sell UK Down the River for Worthless Promises?…”, Mish's Global Economic Trend Analysis, 20 November 2011.

For those who doubt existence of the connection I draw between Lukasiewicz and finance qua monetary-systematics, I leave aside reference to Soros' notion of “market reflexivity” and draw attention to the following verbal juxtapositions provided by Zero Hedge in their post entitled, “European Black Swan Sighted”, 20 November 2011. Quoting the article:

Clearly investors [in EIB bonds] think the same this week and are starting to worry about the same self-referencing, self-supporting house-of-cards that caused the EFSF to be written off as unworkable.

It is clear that the contagion is spreading…

Therein, “autopoiesis” (in narrow definition: self-generation) and self-organization (basically, what quantum mechanics, as a theory of “clocks within clocks within clocks”, codifies, to my understanding involving 3-fold operator-time) are, in clear implication, regarded as constituting, by self-reference -- Lukasiewicz logics being order-types of self-referential propositions, but dissimulated as truth-valued shades-of-gray -- a self-supporting house-of-cards, the contagion-driven (“contagion” being the word chosen by social anthropologists to disparage animistic identity-transparency, which is actually a case of the quantum relative-state responsible for the self-organization, which, in regards to markets, was mid-to-late-18th-century black-box-termed as “invisible hand”, “magic hand”, “finger of God”, “sorting demon”) collapse of which is understood a Black Swan.

The only experience I've had with agricultural commodities was a part-time job as a grader/pricer of grain which my math skills got me as a senior in high school at a grain mill/elevator in Ohio (same period I was taking honors economics and honors PSSC physics which taught quantum mechanics at the high school level, and during which, while trying to comprehend implications of multiple bank credit expansion, the initial topological intuitions came forth from which the ideas on m-logically-valued LETS eventually demerged). Nonetheless, I will risk making the observation that the failure of MF Global argues strongly for implementation of variously-backed -- to include agricultural commodities -- m-logically-valued LETS nesting foams defined over fractal e-boundaries. The hedge-fund-ization and financial-derivative-ization and ETFization of agricultural commodities places them directly upon the Devil's Staircase in risk transfer and concentration such that systemic meltdown of agricultural commodities futures trading efficacy is insured upon one or another step of that Staircase: MF Global melted down on the EMU sovereign-debt step. As many appear to fear (see: “Farm belt rage over MF Global could chill markets”, Bob Burgdorfer and Philip Shishkin, Reuters, 21 November 2011), more complete destruction of agricultural futures functionality likely will come with decisive movement onto the trans-sovereign-debt step of the Devil's Staircase, however further hedged (i.e., transferred and concentrated) with ETFs and insurance schemes. Transfer of agricultural risk to other classes of risk simultaneously synoptically concentrates resultant generic risk: topologically speaking, there is no possible-world logic by which this could be avoided, so long as the currencies of denomination are ₁T₂-logically-valued (generic-ization of risk is a function of the absence of _µT_m-logical values greater than ₁T₂). This last overall statement must be deemed a mere assertion -- until Musculpt as mathematical notation becomes available to cyclotomically relative-state special with general cases, because of (quoting myself from above):

“111011010010101010101011 Buffer Overflow”, any higher-order of logical-value -- _µT_m-indicies greater than 1 and 2 -- being “overflow” to ₁T₂-buffers, with respect to logics and/or financial instruments/currencies. Nowhere-vanishing _µI_m-holonomy of n-forms over Kahler M -- bundled most trivially? Hmmm. Section an Abelian quintic, Calabi-Yau three-fold, if you can separate operator-time from the space operated upon. TARDIS is not TARDY -- at least not at relative absolute limiting values of dynamical variables under 3-fold operator-time. Heh-heh-heh! Faster-than-c neutrino? Which m-value of c, relative to what temporal-density as a function of temporal-curl? Reestablish non-binary options with high-speed optical-switched interior Musculpt as mathematical notation, wherein: the data is the processor; the processor, the data.

As an aside, it can be noted that specialist in tornadogenesis, Douglas A. Paine, finally received tenure at Cornell (over opposition of some illustrious peers) largely because of his goodwill in the local community where he was a frequent and very popular keynote speaker to agricultural and business groups. Too bad those talks were not recorded.

War-crimes tribunals are required, otherwise Schrödinger's wave-function could not remain dissimulated. If this statement seems bizarre, that “seems” is clear indication as to how little the IMPLICATIONS of quantum mechanics are comprehended. Given that “the man who broke the Bank of England” formulated his approach to speculation/hedging in significant measure by reductive interpretation of self-referential propositions (thus furthering dissembling of the implications of Schrödinger), one must speculate upon the role played by back-reaction against Schrödinger in Judaization (actually: secular-rabbinicalization) of the Open Society Justice Initiative. I know -- from living for three years in a riverside stilt house, Oh Toui Village, Andong Khmer Commune, Kompong Bay District -- that many Cambodians understand the role the U.S. bombing campaign played in genesis of the Cambodian holocaust, indicting U.S. responsibility, even though the U.S. was not a perpetrator (indeed, exemplifying Freudian slips, who is the biggest missing party, and which party is “not all there”? see: “At Cambodia War-Crimes Trial, Defendants are not all there”, Brendan Brady, Time, 21 November 2011). What is not understood is the real “why” of the U.S. bombing campaign -- an attempt to bomb the inherently unbombable. Hysteria over existence of an “inherently unbombable” -- hysteria by conversion-disorder displacement in projective-identification at collective transference -- became compensatory abreaction to the dissimulation of Schrödinger's wave-function as pertaining to probability amplitudes (not to ANIMISTIC relative-state identity-transparency, which would be a Cabalistic derabbinicalization of Schrödinger). See, for further explication, from point of view of a targets analyst, Targets Branch, Combined Intelligence Center, Vietnam, “Who Caused the Cambodian Holocaust, Anyway?” and “Echo of the Mockingbird: Why Postwar Historiography Is Anti-Historiographic”.

Meteorologist, Douglas A. Paine, stopped primarily studying tornadogenesis during the late-1970s and shifted his focus of attention to solar-terrestrial interactions. In explaining this refocus, he said to me: “You understand, don't you, that by now nothing can be done.” He felt that in tornadogenesis nature exhibits the principles by which mankind's energy problem could have been solved, but that humans could not recognize this in a timely fashion due to all sorts of cognitive obstructions. This was a personal judgment call which had profound impact upon my major life decisions. Radiation-meteorologically speaking, what are the chances of further Fukushima releases (for three answers see: “Japan Was Almost Lost To A 100% Core Meltdown. . .”, Michio Kaku, YouTube, 20 August 2011, and “Fukushima May Blow”, Washington's Blog, 22 November 2011)? And what are the prospects for more Fukushima-type disasters (see, for amplification: “Vindicated Seismologist Says Japan Still Underestimates Threat To Reactors”, Jason Clenfield, Bloomberg, 21 November 2011) if anthropogenic “electron-temperature enhancement” of Earth's upper atmosphere alters solar-wind and solar-generated acoustically-modified gravity-wave-mode and solar-plasma-jet communicated complex-angular-momentum cascade through the atmosphere and into Earth's crustal and core dynamics? And do we presently have anthropogenic modification of solar modulation of local values of m-valued universal physical constants pregeometrically _µT_m-processed by means of the imaginary/hypercomplex trinary temporal curl executed by 3-fold operator-time? For provocative material suggestive of this possibility, see: “The Next Scientific Frontier: Sun-Earth Interactions”, Washington's Blog, 25 August 2011. How do recent stock-market volatilities compare to recent climate-shift-related volatilities? Is the correlation a case of collective introjection or collective projection? Interesting to consider that since Wyle's attempt of 1918, ₁T₂-GUTS on the geometrical level, e.g., by gauge symmetries, hasn't really come together very well, certainly not well enough to have solved humanity's energy problem on a timely basis.

Finally, I've run across a paper which details history of proposals related to CRUs, variously transcribed as composite, collective, concentric reserve units {see: “Reserves and Baskets”, Michael D. Bordo and Harold James, National Bureau of Economic Research, Working Paper No. 17492, October 2011; note that even in this paper collective unconscious affect-charge manages to register its discombobulating effect relative to the Cabalistic number arbitrarily used to fix the BW1 gold-exchange value of the dollar: “The equivalence of the SDR to the dollar at the beginning created a notional value of 0.888671 grams of fine gold.” [p.14] and “The EUA [European Unit of Account] was defined in terms of gold at the old value of the dollar (0.088867088 gram of fine gold).” [p. 16]; mere typo? ha! not considering the weirds inevitably found in discussions of this number} -- and in good memetime, too, given the following frankly Frankish statement made by Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the IMF (as reported in: “IMF Revamps Credit Line Program to Attract Nations Facing Outside Shocks”, Sandrine Rastello, Bloomberg, 22 November 2011):

“This is another step toward creating an effective global financial safety net to deal with increased global interconnectedness.”

Most of the literature I've earlier read on CRUs has exemplified the “decoherence” of fiberBOARD composite informing the underlying notion responsible for CRU proposals (of whichever incarnation: composite, collective, concentric) by contrast to the “coherence” of fiberBUNDLED quantum-composite actually capable of providing a “safety net to deal with [the] increased global interconnectedness” primarily due to massive infusion of _µT_m-quantum-based technologies. Lagarde's idea -- that increased provision of ₁T₂-logically-valued currencies can adequately “deal with” heightened connectedness -- exemplifies the Bourbaki approach to the relative-state identity-transparency first made rigorously explicit by Cantor with his infamous diagonal proof. The BUNDLING I'm talking about is not the psychologically-regressed derivative bungling of mortgage-backed-security bundles, but the fiberbundle arithmetics of Clifford parallels codified as J. G. Bennett “pencil of skew-parallels”-drawn polytopes-in-motion, geometrodynamic analogues to variously-backed _µT_m-valued LETS vehicle currencies referenced to a pregeometric _µI_m-valued quantum-composite holomorphic reserve domain with properties more similar to reference-domain bancor than to the reserve/vehicle-somewhat-conflating SDR or the reserve/vehicle-very-conflating EUA qua ECU, “volume” of this reserve-domain-holonomy MVRS (m-logically-valued reference space) being covoluminous with, not volume of world trade, but notionally, and progressively more accurately as discovery-by-use proceeds, of vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock” planet Earth (LETS vehicle-backings being Abelian-Bellian cyclotomic decomposition products of these time-shapes, trade/payments imbalances being thus subsumed as Keynes Clearing-Union-like “gauge” symmetries within the more general Everettian superposition -- time-shapes to be ANIMISTICally propitiated by autopoietic markets via incentives and sanctions associated with the m-values, incorporating those “green”, e-stacked upon base-state of these vehicle currencies, themselves e-stacked in nesting foams upon fractal e-boundaries). Hoping to put a Kilbrittain Cork in it, and in sympathy with Old Eire of the Celts, for I once knew Deirdre of the Sorrows, I specifically choose the words “animistic” and “propitiate” because [1] they are accurate, and [2] they illustrate WHY the current news of financial dithering is non-financial news and actually news as to how -- subliminally -- the powers that be, the Albert Speers of our day, in continuing by conversion-displacement to stave off centuries-old Umwelt-Weltanschauung existential threats, are yet again hastening approach of all-out war, this memetime a space-based PW1. Ever-rising amplifications in schizophenogenic cognitive dissonance aside, look for vapor-coning financial super-crisis Mach 1-5 to go hypersonic/high-hypersonic in acoustically-modified gravity-wave-mode (amplifying with height) contagion? Subsonic-to-supersonic reversal: at supersonic, money-channel flow-area expansion increases flow speed of hot money and associated deleterious shock-wave effects. Implementation of m-logically-valued LETS e-nesting-foams would Machmeter the EEIS (electronic economy information system qua essential elements of information sensitizer) required to create the very necessary self-regulating convergent-divergent money-flow nozzles at m-scale-levels. By Musculpted facilitative convivial tools/instruments of institutionalization, collectively cultivate knowledge, understanding, and wisdom as Platonic anamnesia? Well then, supratemporal, hypertemporal, high-hypertemporal anagnosia: first sound, second sound, third sound; first sight, second sight, third sight; first-order temporal curl, second-order temporal curl; third-order temporal curl.

This product, undoubtedly of some “bright light state”, again makes me doubt only two minds (see: “What's Lost With the Demise of the Euro? Only What Was Unsustainable”, Charles Hugh Smith, Of Two Minds, 22 November 2011). Quoting the relevant portion of the article:

The euro supporters forgot or ignored the primary purpose of national currencies: to account for differences in transparency, productivity, trust, money creation and risk between nations' economies and their Central Banks/States.

If you remove this means of accounting for these fundamental differences, then you have removed a feedback loop from a dynamic system, and thus removed an absolutely essential flow of information and transparency.

This same principle applies at sub-national scale levels, and is one consideration ignored in every paper I've read produced by Robert Mundell on the notion of “optimum currency area”, a one-way notion designed to facilitate currency M&As, mergers and acquisitions. The notion that optimum currency areas might be smaller than those of nation-states is not seriously considered, except by counter-cultural fringies -- this absence includes by those financial analysts into study of Mandelbrot's fractals, such as, so far as I've seen, Nassim Nicholas Taleb (this approach to frequency-traffic analysis being primarily driven by investment-speculation management motives, not by the goal of finding means to support autopoietic-operator facilitation of systemic self-repair processes). Might well report sightings of Vedic one-wheeled cars, those Chariots of the Gods (in psycho-projection due to suppression). While “The Black Swan of Cairo” (N. N. Taleb and Mark Blyth, Foreign Affairs, 90:3, May-June 2011) definitely gets it better -- quoting: “It is both misguided and dangerous to push unobserved risks further into the statistical tails of the probability distribution of outcomes and allow these high-impact, low-probability 'tail risks' to disappear from policymakers' fields of observation” -- still, even more damaging and dangerous, is treating steps of the Devil's Staircase as a sequence of fitness-landscape, can-kickable, 2^nk-tail-risks of _µT_mly-Black Swans by suppressing identity-transparent M^nk-articulation relative-state-space with binary-logical probability-amplitudes -- thus altogether preventing apprehension of the multi-utilities of _µT_m-valued Lukasiewiczian LETS monetary units defined over fractal-boundary e-nesting-foams. For this reason, Taleb does not provide a believable description of how to achieve what he says is needed: “What is needed is a system that can prevent the harm done to citizens by the dishonesty of business elites; the limited competence of forecasters, economists, and statisticians; and the imperfections of regulation, not one that aims to eliminate these flaws.” The deeper problem with Taleb's thought is the same one plaguing that of virtually all of us since N. H. Abel's “Impossibility” Theorem of the 1820s: “Engineering, architecture, astronomy, most of physics, and much of common science are linear domains.” This affirmation of the “classical limit” is utterly mistaken -- a mistake possibly necessary and sufficient to human-species extinction. Smith, in the above-linked article, suggests that an EMU breakup could transpire, if painfully, rather benignly and prohomeostatically: “If Europe ditches the failed 'folk' experiment called the euro, then the process of recognizing and pricing dysfunction can begin, and the stability that only transparency and feedback can provide will soon return to the EU.” One factor -- other than the possibility of war -- auguring poorly for ease of transition -- and other than the one recently mentioned by Christine Lagarde, i.e., technologically-forced increased interconnectedness -- is WHY there is a parallel between localization within “optimum currency area”-theory and localization within “biological autopoiesis”-theory: the former to the nation-state level, the latter to the cellular level. In neither case is the “why” of the chosen localization actually justifiable on the basis of objectively determined factors; rather, by ideological commitments subliminally made prior to research undertaken. To allow that quantum-level factors are significant, not to say instrumental, in biological self-production and self-organization [1] immediately evokes psycho-reverberations of pagan-animistic relative-state identity-transparency (conflated, by psychological regression, to Alfred Espinas' Des sociétés animales, 1878 -- see, for recent reflections, Animal Societies, Jerram L. Brown and Jiro Kikkawa, Japan Scientific Societies Press, 1987, as well as our novel, The Moon of Hoa Binh, 1994) and entelechy of the nation-state, and [2] implies the likelihood that scale-specificity of quantum principles (sometimes mislabeled “scale relativity”: call the thing by the name of its opposite, a well-known technique of blackpsyche) will be lost in process of further research -- with all that would imply (“swarm of swarms”-theory reeks of pagan animism, and, hence, is frequently conversion-disorder displaced into being the nanoweapons of upcoming PW1). Localizing optimality criteria for definition of currency legal tender to only the nation-state scale level supports biology in its ban upon pagan animism. Moreover, cellular biology -- during WWII, and subsequently -- banned Germano-Russian approaches (in part via the permanent shutting down of the British Journal of Colloidal Chemistry during WWII) by discrediting cellular plasmahaut in preference for semi-permeable-membrane “cell wall” (the two often co-existing and distinct: see Ernest Henry Starling, Fluids of the Body, for edifying comments specific to this topic (sans DNA pi-electron-parcel second-sound temperature oscillations, and associated biological-clock/temporal-curl dynamics, which need to be further understood with respect to birdbrain response to song and ratbrain biological clock changes in response to light stimuli, for instance, for I suspect the notion of non-redundant non-coding RNA is necessitated by the mistaken assumption that quantum properties of DNA serve no significant biological roles: see, for some reason available in full, “Song presentation induces gene expression in the songbird forebrain”, Claudio V. Mello, et al., PNAS, Vol. 89, August 1992, Neurobiology, pp. 6818-6822, and “The genome of a songbird”, Wesley C. Warren, et al., Nature, Vol. 464, 1 April 2010, pp. 757-762); as noted at multiple locations in my posted writings, Gilbert N. Ling has devoted an illustrious career to this area of research, best accessed via his book Life at the Cell and Below-Cell Level, Damadian Foundation, Fonar Corporation, creator of the first MRI machine, in significant measure on the basis of Ling's research), largely because properties of cellular _µT_m-logically-valued plasmahaut directly involve principles of quantum biochemistry which a cellular ₁T₂-logically-valued wall does not. In a directly analogous fashion, the ₁T₂-type of boundary imposed by nation-states, and upon which legal tender of monetary currencies is defined, reinforces the “why” of plasmahaut banishment in the biological sciences (a banishment necessary, it should be noted, to justification of the thesis that genetic engineering is benign, in significant measure because, so it is maintained, quantum biochemistry of the genome has no significant biological role). Vehicle currencies, however, would much more optimally -- in regards to actual factors of market-mediated autopoiesis and self-organization, i.e., aspects of Everettian quantum relative-state qua vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock” -- be defined over _µT_m-valued fractal e-boundary nesting foams (making a given LETS currency into something of a “fractal drum” with properties of J. G. Bennett “pencil of skew-parallels”-drawn polytope-in-motion). Nomi Prins (onetime Goldman Sachs executive and Bear Stearns analyst turned author of It Takes a Pillage, Wiley, 2009, and Other People's Money: The Corporate Mugging of America, New Press, 2004) identifies one reason why such fractal boundaries of currency definition (and the viscosities of “fractal drum” band-pass) would be much more optimal (see: “As the World Crumbles: the ECB spins, Fed smirks, and US Banks Pillage”, Nomi Prins, 21 November 2011). Quoting the article:

These central entities also don't bother to examine (or notice) the intermingled effect of leveraged derivatives and debt transactions per country; which is why no amount of funding from the ECB, or any other body, will be able to stay ahead of the hot money racing in and out of various countries. It's not about inflation -- it's about the speed, leverage, and daring of capital flow, that has its own power to select winners and losers.

One of the functions that m-values stacked upon the base-state of _µT_m-logically-valued LETS currencies would perform is facilitation of self-organized “fractal drum” modulation of this “hot” factor by providing a means allowing for locally-determined autogenic shifts in the (optimally: variant from sector to sector, memetime to memetime, i.e., simultaneous multiple relative-states superposed) viscosities of flows (what is ₁T₂-sorted memetime to memetime is vonHayek _µT_m-operator time-shape superposed). Additionally (in the heuristic sense, not the arithmetic sense), the functional integration of local structural specificities permitted by double-stacking (a principle -- tantamount to exponentiating the exponent: which is not the exponential growth so well explicated by Chris Martenson on 16 November 2011 in his talk entitled “Unfixable”, echoing Douglas A. Paine's cusp-catastrophe assessment of the late-'70s, and posted on GoldMoney -- supremely employed by the VCI, with respect to boundaries and bureaucratic variables, to overcome its huge disparity in available force with the U.S. military during the American period of the Viet Nam war), i.e., in the monetary-system case, m-values upon currency base-state and currencies upon fractal-boundary nesting-foams (actually dense-in-itself e-stacking, as is the case with electron-orbitals/energy-bands as information exchange-units in their myriad natural “contexts”, electron transport through free-electron gases being in many respects analogous to hot-money flows, wherein, we now know, as neutrino tells us: c does not equal plus-minus the square-root of E over m, c-prime does not equal… and c-double-prime does not equal…, plus-minus denoting cascade/reverse-cascade, “not equal” because c is m-valued, not single-valued), as cyclotomically projected via “spontaneous fusion” (i.e., reverse cascade) to the MVRS (m-logically-valued reference space, or Lukasiewicz-Hilbert reserve “domain”) heavily mitigates the possibility of excessive reserve accumulation due to severe trade/payments imbalances. Why? First, because the Everettian universal wave-function operating over MVRS-mappings of the vonHayek time-shapes of total capital stock, as _µT_m-logically represented by Karpenko functors Gödel-numbered with Gödel-numbered Gödel-numbers on Riemann-surfaced MVRS pregeometry, will continuously reapportion by modulation of the m-values in m-value stacks (think: pi-stacks of replicating DNA) as they cascade into “spontaneous localization” (thus subtly orchestrating market-effectuated incentives and sanctions), and second, there being no reserve currency per se, and no backing for the no-reserve-currency, whilst there be varied backings for all vehicle currencies as supply-and-materiel qua metabolic-pathway concerns dictate, there is no rationale for pursuit of development strategies dependent upon cultivating imbalances, and third, such rationales are largely removed by removal of the conflation of vehicle and reserve currencies (just as Keynes-White wished to establish with bancor-unitas and clearing union, but failed even to initiate a process directed thereto, largely due to politico-military iatrogenic intervention, thus writing into Bretton Woods a PW1, just as WWII was written into Versailles: revenge always begets its own revenge). In good nick, wire the sweep, placing chocks on the float lifting the banksters' kite-surfing multi-plane otter up the Devil's Staircase. Boffins! Port for'ard of the universal covering's bridge-function. All The Devil's [staircases] Are Here; This [meme]Time It's Different. Note that there are few fundamental ideas expressed here (including Pauli “operator time”) which were not readily available during the pre-WWII period. Note further -- in thinking about Musculpted, m-scenario, e-commons, c-gaming of m-value-stacking upon base-state of _µT_m-LETS defined over fractal e-boundary nesting foams -- that the problems associated with commercial depository banks simultaneously being investment banks, “too big to fail”, fractional-reserve banking, excess leverage, financial-derivativization of agricultural futures, psychologically-regressed bungling of bundled bundles, conflation of vehicle with reserve currencies, excess leverage, pork-barreled legislation of legal crimes-against-systemic-need, centralization of central-bank bubble-gumming, and so very much more can be greatly militated against (being no utopian, I do not believe-claim “solved” or “cured”) by local “growth and repair processes”, m-valued currencies providing the m-modal definers and n-fine-grained tagging required to do so.

It took from onset of the Italian Renaissance until after the French revolutionary wars to formulate and institutionalize the Cartesian-Newtonian Westphalian/Congress-of-Vienna Weltanschauung, notably involving imposition of ₁T₂-logical boundaries of nation-states. Integrity of this codification lasted only about a decade, however: ten years after the Congress of Vienna, N. H. Abel's “Impossibility Theorem” existence proof for transalgebras initiated the unraveling, which has continued apace until this day of transluminal light and neutrinos. Rise and fall of the U.S.S.R. was one late process involved in that unraveling. Just as I do not believe the recent Soviet fall was due primarily to economic factors, so I do not believe the presently evolving crisis in Europe is primarily financial in character. In view of the post-Fukushima German no-nukular decision, it's surely also (see: “World energy crunch as nuclear and oil both go wrong”, Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, The Telegraph, 16 March 2011) post-peak-energy related (see: “Germany Faces Sticker Shock Over Renewable Energy to Replace Nuclear”, Dan Daly, Oil Price, 9 November 2011), particularly so given the EROEI factor in production (see, for instance: “Robert Rapier: The Scientific Challenges To Replacing Oil with Renewables”, Chris Martenson, 26 November 2011; and “Due Diligence: How to Evaluate a Renewable Energy Technology”, Robert Rapier, Rsquared Energy Blog, 21 February 2011). The frenetic rat-on-a-wheel -- joypoppers all too frequently become addicted -- having succumbed to rat-in-a-maze ambivalence -- tousling toss of the mind, wan, weary, and wispy, can't grab hold, can't be held neither, howsoever tightly rimed -- as to how to respond to the financial “persona” of the crisis (see, for instance: “Germany Sees No 'Bazooka' in Crisis as Spain Yields Surge”, Brian Parkin and Angeline Benoit, Bloomberg, 23 November 2011; and “Europe seeks power to place weak states in 'administration'”, Authur Beesley, Irish Times, 22 November 2011; and “Behold The New Anschluss: ECB's Paramo -- 'Prepare To Give Up Significant Sovereignty'”, Zero Hedge, 24 November 2011; and “Germany, France plan quick new Stability Pact”, Reuters, 26 November 2011: in final pushy-shovy will EU-inclusive marshal law be declared under mandate of a joint UN-NATO stability operation justified on the complete-in-itself Bulkan Precedent?) is, in my estimation, related to much deeper-than-economic factors (consider, as noted in the Reuters piece linked above, insistence upon “strict” rules and “control” rights with respect to so fluid a system as is an economy: such insistence upon rule-regulation, upon the notion that a “common set of rules” etched upon some revered tablet -- collective projection of glutamatergic neuronal etching -- bestows benison of a state of Grace by beatific elicitation of normotic obsession with 3-obediances and 4-virtues, the clear marker of challenged minds in need of a learning center): reluctance to use the QE “bazooka” relates less to Weimarization of German memory, than to remembrance of things catastrophic in the past consequent upon once having lavishly indulged in Polish jokes (mad-magice/magush lampoonings of Lukasiewicz logics). A leitmotiv “self-similar” happened long ago and far away: loss of real insight as to _µT_m-logically-aperspectival properties of Tzog-chen AllBase precipitated expansion of ET, the Empire of Tibet, during the 7th to 9th centuries (620s-830s C.E.) which eventually became involved with, and/or catalytic to, the An Lushan Rebellion and cost an enormous price in lives, a price dwarfing holocausts of the 20th century (an estimation attacked by advocates of assault by “humanitarian intervention” -- preventive, preemptive, or remedial), particularly when figured as percentage of then-existing global population base (approximately 250 million -- as compared to 2.5 billion at mid-20th-century -- with over a million people dying in siege of just one Chinese city: as noted by, for instance, Dennis Bloodworth in The Chinese Looking Glass, Secker and Warburg, 1967). Personally, Mosuo “walking marrage” has always seemed to me the most perfect complement to “walking meditation” -- and it has thus not been difficult for me to understand why a _µT_m-forgetting Tridu Songtsan might have assaulted the Mosuo in 703 C.E. All those suffering shenanigans of Snidely Whiplash should wear an asafoetida bag around their necks. Though I do not embrace the Ouspenskyan idea of “exact recurrence”, I do give considerable credence to the notion of “thematic recurrence”-mappings over collective unconscious archetypal event gradients: convergence of conflict, post-peak oil, upon Central Asia may be concrete projective-expression of such a psychotropic case. Devil's dung upon you, all ye eaters of achaar! With Odysseus of Kazantzakis, I fling red poppies down. This idea as to probable focus-locus of a prospective U.S.-China conflict flies in the face of current received wisdom: register that Max Hastings does not raise the question as to whether or not there will be a WWIII (see: “Will WWIII be between the U.S. and China?”, London Daily Mail, 26th November 2011). He assumes there will be such a war, and, in consensus with many commentators today, that it will kick off in the EastAsia-WesternPac region, and that the recent decision to base U.S. boots in Darwin signals a move in that direction. But what if this Australia commitment is actually a subliminal feint (the “why” of it being unconscious), not actually a forward deployment, a feint marking beginnings of a move of the strategic defense back to ANZ-Hawaii-Alaska, with the Indian Ocean (India, the most-safe base area) being the pelagic expanse in deepest contention, the South Atlantic (re: South Africa as reserve staging, Brazil having major strategic value) being of secondary importance? In this Swan Lake is Odile doomed to dominate all “night sea journeys” taken upon Ships of the Dead? Almost certainly, if the pattern-of-life relative-state identity-transparency signified in quantum-economy exchange processes by world-loomed ulos ragi hidup is left behind at end times to the incomputable _µT_mly-Black Swan outlier. Consider that the “Heartland” has historically been China's greatest vulnerability. And the South China Sea, as oil resources go… Yet -- insofar as such a war would be cyber-nano-robotic space-based and involve satellite-laser-guided conventional and otherwise smart-bombs brought on-target with hypersonic delivery vehicles steering their ways through, or being stopped by, defense shields of various sorts -- it is hard to imagine, assuming alliances putting sides roughly on-par (one way to achieve this could involve the U.S. Federal Reserve imposing QEification of the EMU such that Germany chooses to leave: see Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, “Should the Fed save Europe from disaster?”, The Telegraph, 27 November 2011; another way to the same outcome is described in Part 3 of “Euro Zone on the Brink: A Continent Stares into the Abyss”, Der Spiegel, 28 November 2011), the total, absolute, existential-threat period of such a war as either localized or long-persisting. Nor can one imagine its origins-onset/etiology-pathogenesis being Resident Evil of conscious rationality of whatever logical-value order-type, Gödel-proved or no -- a failure of the imagination which directs attention to possibly-involved collective unconscious processes vectored upon human-species falsifiability and self-cancellation.

Here is an excellent piece -- re: American versions of the Dolchstosslegende stab-in-the-back myth -- from a one-time Pentagon analyst: “The Good, the Bizarre and the Ugly: AF-PAC Sitrep”, Franklin C. Spinney, Counterpunch, 25-27 November 2011. I've argued, since soon after 9/11 (see the “Strategic Assessment” pages of the website devoted to our novel, The Moon of Hoa Binh ), that because of the post-Tet-'68 stab-in-the-back myth (which achieved consensus between the U.S. Army and the anti-war movement as to what ended the war) America could not have responded to the 9/11 sting in any other way than it did, and, going back to 1968 at SRA/MACV-J2, that the arising, in hallway conversation during the first few hours of aftermath, of an American version of the German stab-in-the-back myth was necessary and sufficient to some future catastrophic strategic decision: appearance of the myth implies tacit rejection of Clausewitz's principle that winning at war is the achievement of political objectives, goals, and interests by military means, a rejection predisposing to strategic failure. The VC/NVN achieved their political goal by military means, while taking out virtually no “face cards” of their opposition (rather: largely by snuffing BW1). This Dolchstosslegende element is one conscious tag to the collective unconscious archetypal event gradients I refer to immediately above. Being, quite obviously, heavily against postmodernist anti-meta (be the meta with regard to narrative, Platonic archetypes, centered analysis, or whatever), I must emphasize that the notions explicated on this website concerning _µT_m-valued LETS are in no way related to current HTS (human terrain system, an application of the SFI-Bios 2^nk-“fitness landscape”) applications (largely inspired by dyslessons learned from Phoenix/CORDS during the Viet Nam war, most of the “learners” involved having had absolutely no direct contact in the field with either Phoenix or CORDS, such as that had by assignment to TID/525th MIG [TID = technical intelligence detachment; MIG = military intelligence group], let alone the sort of access had at SRA/MACV-J2) developed by the U.S. Army, nor in any way an output of the Pat Roberts Intelligence Scholars Program (see, for edifying commentary: Daivd H. Price's Weaponizing Anthropology, AK Press, July of 2011).

Though born in the PA, my first memory is that of a Texakin: San Antonio, 1947, an intense, tornado-spawning, severe local storm -- concrete image of many things blowing down the street (confirmed, in discussion with my mother, as not being a substitute memory). Two years old -- and already alerted to far-from-equilibrium phase transitions. How To Foment Planetary War One, For The Complete Idiot (particularly the Pole lacking awareness of Polish Logics): for edification regarding same, see: “Germany told to act to save Europe”, Quentin Peel and Jan Cienski and Norma Cohen, The Financial Times, 28 November 2011; and “OECD: euro collapse would have 'highly devastating outcomes' worldwide”, David Gow, The Guardian of London, 28 November 2011. How many dimensions of the prevailing phase transition are missing from these oh-so-mild prognostications? Tidied to a part, whoot, not held whole -- a tidying clearly causing relative-state to tie die. When deadheading to Dundeady don't rely on the fallen Old Head of [Kins}ale. The governing idea of a “collective occasion of experience” -- à la, say, 42nd Street -- under a “Director” has nothing to do with how my Leaves of Grass “other-I-am” (yes, there are “other” American perspectives) understands such experience. My, how I jus' love immersion in daily-routine frustrations! Heh-heh-heh. Go out there and be so swell! Always smarter than he was, she was, my Aunt Jo, no Loos woman, shuffled off as a teen, she did, during the '30s, to her preferred mountain-woman/bow-huntress “Buffalo” -- that's for sure, and that shuffling-off was massively edifying and life informing to my me, the me into silent insolence. Hollywood as exemplar of the “moving parts of centers” is the recycler par excellence -- hardly the leading lite, its ₁T₂-self inflation of auto-attributions fed back again and again and again in Loopy Loop click-track loony tune.

Murphy's Law in its pure form -- if it can happen, it will happen -- is one way to acknowledge operation of _µT_m-logically-valued pregeometry, whereas the judgmental form -- what can go wrong, will go wrong -- assumes pregeometry is a ₁T₂-valued calculus of propositions. A derivative of the pure form, a collective psychotropic version expressing conversion-disorder displacement at compensatory abreaction by projective identification -- what there is a generalized refusal to consider is exactly what is sure to happen -- seems especially important today: many people boldly state that they refuse to consider catastrophic outcomes to the presently evolving global “predicament” (in the Martenson sense of that word: no one can consider her/him-self well-informed if he/she [binary embodiment comes with the last order-type in cyclotomic decomposition] has not assimilated Chris Martenson's perspectives on exponential growth). I am not here speaking primarily of global warming, as I think both sides of that diversionary squabble have little insight as to actual m-valued factors of climate-shift dynamics: the many variables involved in modulation of complex-angular-momentum cascade through Earth's atmosphere and into her/his/its crustal-core dynamics (the alteration of gas ratios, associated with the green-house effect, shifting frequency-response characteristics involved in the cascade process). Murphy's Law in judgmental form, not in pure form, gives analogical expression to the Second Law of Thermodynamics: an objective linear-time is precluded from the pure form by the _µT_m-valued nature of the involved logics. Let it be noted that marking of the Cartesian coordinates employed to plot exponential growth requires an objective linear-time: without such time, the curve cannot have the physical significance attributed to it. Having refused to consider employment of _µT_m-valued logics to interpret meaning of the wave-function of Schrödinger's original time-independent wave equation, so as to retain belief in an objective linear-time and, hence, preserve definability of entropy, the human species engaged in a mass clinging behavior: clinging to the anthropic-principled self-fulfilling prophesy which is the Second Law of Thermodynamics, and which ordains a cusp catastrophe incumbent upon exponential growth (that the growth-identified discipline, economics, is simultaneously identified with the principle of equilibrium, manifest in economies by application of an invisible-hand made of conflicted self-interests summed under the extremum principle, is paradoxical only under identification with ₁T₂-valued logic alone -- which is itself “paradoxical” from vantage of higher order-types). No mere tail risk: rather, as ZeroHedge well knows, clan-caste-club colluded, frontrunning, huddle-networked, headlong skimscamming upon monetization of exponential structural-growth drivers-unto-cc, i.e., cusp catastrophe. This certainly does not mean that a cusp catastrophe can be escaped while employing ₁T₂-valued logic alone to conduct human affairs and to interface those affairs to nature by a pandemic of exponential-growth behaviors; it means that avoidance of such catastrophe would minimally have involved absence of the mass clinging behavior engaged in at dysterpretation of Schrödinger. One of the strategic mega-errors incumbent upon that clinging behavior was creation (1 January 1999) of the ₁T₂-logically-valued euro in context of more than a century and a half (24 May 1844: “WHAT HATH GOD WROUGHT”) infusion of _µT_m-logically-valued-quantum-based technology (all the worse, in that such e-technology is not acknowledged to be so logically-valued, wave-function of e being dysunderstood as to probability amplitudes). Red-faced as snow monkeys? Nope. All self-deceptions -- including the self-serving undue-optimism bias preventing realistic assessment and, hence, effective action -- resolve to the deception which is the ₁T₂-self-conception. When mind is challenged, assertion of willfulness is an early reactionary compensation quickly supported by heightened commitment to errors past. Saving the euro will not save the euro, because saving the euro will not save the global ₁T₂-logically-valued, fiat, non-system, monetary system based upon the mistaken assumption of the necessity for unending growth simply in order to organize, an unending growth which becomes exponential growth, and which non-system, additionally, is under assault by exponential growth in _µT_m-logically-valued techno-infusion.

A Western move on Iran, if successful, would place the West in a position to deny China as much as possibly 50-percent of his/her/its imported oil. Who can say with strong confidence that Wee Willie Wacko -- or is it Wacko's Wee Willie? -- is not already in control of human destiny? See, for evidence supporting heuristic utility of this question: “China to Protect Iran Even if Result Starts World War III…”, Mish's Global Economic Trend Analysis, 30 November 2011. Consider for a few minutes the thesis that substantive content of these videos somehow relates to the actual strategic orientation of the Chinese military (a thesis I find difficult, though not impossible, to swallow). Does the Chinese military know something humongous those of us in the non-classified world are unaware of, indeed, have simply not even suspected? Could what ended the Cold War, and led to SNAFU Review (top-down-initiated attempt by the Soviets to painlessly jettison E. Europe), trigger onset of WWIII? Does China, for instance, have a phased-array blanket so comprehensive as was that Soviet during the late-1970s/early-'80s (see: Frances Fitzgerald, Way out There in the Blue: Reagan, Star Wars and the End of the Cold War, Simon and Schuster, 2000)? If not, what could they know? What could they have? For, certainly, China-Russia is not a pre-WWIII alliance structure one could conceivably regard as on-par with their likely opposition in such a war. To reach rough parity, a Greater China would have to incorporate in some fashion whole of the Mahayana Buddhist Bloc (those who believe a future Japan would never voluntarily fuse to a Greater China should listen to Hayman Captl's Kyle Bass explaining why, in his words, “Japan is going to be the biggest problem the world faces” and in regards to the overall global financial crisis, “What does all this mean? If you talk to an economic historian, it just means war”), and align to a Germano-Russian Bloc: a possible development, but one with quite some ways yet to go. No, I rather think that if these videos posted by MISH are in some way reflective of the Chinese military's strategy, then collective unconscious affect-charge must loom large, very large. Residuals of the Period of Humiliations, I judge inadequate to explanation. Moreover, look not only to mega-death magnitude of the An Lushan Rebellion for insight as to intensity of internal-insurrection paranoia. Here is a bizarre question which needs some serious thought: are the two sides to a prospective WWIII actually on the same side -- just like was the case in WWII, WWI, and the Franco-Prussian war? If so, that can be attributed to the nature of collective unconscious event gradients and compensatory abreactions. Which prospective WWIII “side” has the longest, most violent history of conflict involving repression of the animistic-pagan _µT_m-logically-valued aperspectival? Millennia of Confucian-to-suppress-Taoist internecine strife or millennia of warfare against latent residuals of the Old Europe mother cult (and conversion-disorder displacements thereto)? Hard to say. Nor can one reach confident judgment as to which “side” is most “affected”, as regards this age-old conflict, by experimental demonstrations of principles of post-quantum-relativity physics (which strongly support the thesis that the animistic-pagan _µT_m-logically-valued aperspectival has been vigorously resurrecting itself ever since Abel produced his “Impossibility” Theorem: resurrecting, by collective unconscious gradient, in anticipation of the needs imposed by [After}math?). But dogs will be dogs -- and lash out at each other even when, basically, they are on the same side.

History has lavishly demonstrated that debtor's prisons easily become forced-labor camps and such camps can degenerate into… Consider the following from an article describing proposals being readied for dealing with the EMU debt crisis (see: “Merkel: Financial crisis solution to 'take years'”, Melissa Eddy, Associated Press, 2 December 2011). Quoting the article:

To ensure that nations are keeping their budgets in check with the limits of the stability pact -- deficits not more than 3 percent of gross domestic product and overall government debt of not more than 60 percent of GDP -- Germany is pushing for the right to take countries in violation before the European Court of Justice.

In run up to PW1, are whole nation-states to become functional equivalents to debtor's prisons (for amplification, see: “German finance minister details debt fund plan before EU summit”, Madeline Chambers, Reuters, 3 December 2011)? If so, mate, this would not exactly be a new human experience.

Was failure of the euro built-in on the surface-structure level, as one of its founding fathers now maintains (see: “Euro doomed from start, says Jacques Delors”, James Kirkup, The Telegraph, 2 December 2011) -- or was its failure preordained long before its advent by much deeper factors about which founding fathers continue to make no conscious registration? Since I am still trying to visually resolve the big picture, my only interest in details is dictated by the requirements of basic-pattern recognition. The longest paper I wrote for Elspeth Rostow's team-taught 12-credit/4-semester AU-SIS “American Civilization” problem-based seminar came, memory serving, during 1964 (the year after my initial high school honors-econ struggle to topologically encompass in my mind multiple-bank credit expansion, a struggle facilitated by my first exposure to quantum mechanics in honors high school PSSC physics), and was devoted to the Hamilton-Jefferson debates of the 1790s on the national debt. The basic-pattern-recognition theme argued in this paper was that these debates were moot, in that the outcome was predetermined by the fact that there then existed no viable metaphysical justification, nor a physical-theory analogue, by which to successfully promulgate a Jeffersonian program in opposition to Hamiltonian fiscal union and formation of a central bank -- such justifications and analogues would have to wait for appearance of quantum-relativity theory (I had no insight by 1964 as to import of N. H. Abel's “Impossibility” Theorem of the 1820s, from which much of 19th-century higher maths and early-20th-century physical theory would demerge). My paper received a poor grade because its theme was thought to be of no importance, however well argued. In retrospect, such a grade was only to be expected -- given that the paper was two world wars too late, as well as half a century too early: only now is Europe arriving at its “Hamiltonian moment” (see, for use of this term: “Fiscal Federalism Or Bust! Morgan Stanley Sees Dec 9th As Real European D-Day”, Zero Hedge, 1 December 2011), a moment when the Cartesian-Newtonian paradigm justifying, and providing physical-theory analogue for, Hamiltonianism has been irretrievably lost/dead for over a century. On the other hand, had the theme-of-no-importance argued in my paper been attended to in 1964, European integration conceivably could have gone down a different path, one actually viable. Having since spent the bulk of my adult working life at my ancestral (mother's side: Baumgardner; father's side: yeoman farmer) trade, in the planting of thousands and thousands of trees (primarily with Hills Nursery, Arlington/McLean), only to find myself sitting on a rotten log next to wood dead on the stump, I ask: have we yet arrived at the planetary “Jeffersonian moment”? In answer to that question, I submit the 17th Annual Margolis Lecture given to The Center for Global Peace and Conflict Studies, UC-Irvine (see: “The New Food Wars: Globalization, GMOs, and Biofuels”, YouTube, uploaded 3 July 2008) by female quantum physicist, Vandana Shiva, a presentation of the Jeffersonian position in contrast to the Hamiltonian position adopted by female quantum physicist, Angela Merkel. Dr. Shiva concludes this lecture, and after-lecture question-answers, with the following statement:

…I am now getting convinced with the food emergency that either we will all have good food, or we will have no food at all. And that is why we must move to growing food sustainably, growing food with care, and creating the economies that allow good food to travel.

What is the nature of such economies? I believe such economies are the quantum economies which implementation of m-logically-valued LETS e-nesting-foams would bring into being. As a 19-year-old, I read Daniel Boorstin's The Lost World of Thomas Jefferson (U. of Chicago, 1948) in 1964 (at which time I was living across the street from Teddy and Joan in the Georgetown household of the ex-OSS foremost LBJ speechwriter), by assignment of ex-OSS Elspeth Rostow, and came down on Jefferson's side -- not Hamilton's. I, thus, explicitly rejected Elspeth's ex-OSS husband's thesis on economic growth (which is now clearly understand to be exponential) -- W. W.'s The Stages of Growth: A Non-Communist Manifesto, 1960. It was sitting next to Elspeth in a small conference room at the Sheraton Park Hotel during the First National Teach-In, listening to W. W. debate Hans Morgenthau and Stanley Hoffman, when I decided I had to go to Vietnam, if I were really to understand, on a truly fundamental level, the pathology I had come to ponder by good offices of reading and rereading C. G. Jung's Modern Man in Search of a Soul, 1933, as assigned by AU-SIS Prof. Abdul Aziz Said for his course, Intro to World Politics, 1963. Upon returning to D.C. no Washington from the Viet Nam war, I went with a proposal to anthropologist George Harris (who had produced at SORO The U.S. Army Handbook for Vietnam, 1962), from whom I had taken the team-taught 12-credit/4-semester AU-SIS “Human Behavior” problem-based seminar, and for whom, during 1964, I had written a long anthropologically-based comparison of the Malayan Briggs' Plan with the Strategic Hamlets Program using the resources provided by SORO (Special Operations Research Office). The proposal was to conduct -- with respect to the animistic-quantum general-systems-type principles of self-organization tacitly operative in the Viet Cong Political Infrastructure -- in-depth interviews with rallier Lt. Col. Tran Van Dac (the Assistant-PO of sub-COSVN SR1, Tran Van Tra's HQ for the Tet phase of the offensive), whom I had extensively debriefed for SRA/MACV-J2 at the PW camp in Bien Hoa and in a safe house on the backside of the Botanical Gardens in Saigon in aftermath of the May offensive, 1968. Dr. Harris provided me with an introduction to the president of Human Sciences Research, Inc., McLean, Virginia. Extensive discussions ensued and Human Sciences was enthusiastic. I was to return to Saigon to organize the project while Human Sciences tendered a proposal to DOD. However, about a month subsequent, while I was finishing write-up of the proposal's rough draft, a major news magazine published the mistaken rumor that Dac was to head up a Chieu Hoi delegation to the Paris Peace Conference -- and this scuttled the project. Several years later, George Harris ran into me pulling weeds at Beeches Nursery (located in the V beyond the intersection of Dolly Madison and Georgetown Pike near Robert Kennedy's Hickory Hill and in the shadow of the CIA compound) and asked, “This is where you ended up?” Really, that's exactly what happened, no poetic license taken here in the telling. Actually pulling weeds. My focus at that point was Zen aesthetics: Japanese gardening under Ishiyama-san; ikebana, Ikenobo School, under Miyakawa-san.

Whilst I embrace the Blogsphere's DDx (differential diagnosis) as to the global crisis, I do not give much credit to its PRx (the dead from insolvency will rise again bootstraps in hand, if only we let them declare bankruptcy and have their own currencies to devalue so their overgrowth on an exponentially-depleting planet can resume) because the Blogsphere is a poor pathologist, etiology and genesis of the degenerative disease as yet still inadequately characterized (archeology, for instance, dysterpreted its data-selection so as to sanctify the scale-level of the Cartesian-Newtonian nation-state, and, hence, is “deeply” responsible for the prevailing non-system monetary-system dyscrasia), thus I cannot sign-off on the Rx and associated prescriptions. To wit, concerning pathogenesis: further recognition/attention-drawing from Chris Martenson as to the roles of scales and rates (see: “It's Time To Give Up on Mainstream Economics”, Chris Martenson, 5 December 2011). Quoting the article:

For a profession tasked with the analysis of dynamic systems, modern economics can be ploddingly linear. And for a profession supposedly guided by math, the descent into “sociology lite” is all too routine. One of the more consistent errors (or nervous tics, if you will) comes in the area of scale and proportion… This blind spot towards debt growth, and in particular the rate of debt growth, counts as one of the more curious revelations to emerge from the crisis… One possible explanation for this blind-spot towards debt is that the economics profession is largely in service to the political class.

Granted, the economics profession is to the One Percent as psychiatry is to the nation-state, but as regards principles by which dynamical systems function… not just “proportion”: connectivity (as effected/affected by, say, quantum-based-technology infusion). And the very fact there exists a job title know as “rate-setter”! Occupational Specialty: constraint of momentum trades. Such a job description relative to an autopoietic dynamical system? Moreover, not just “rate”: also time rates of change of rate, and time rates of change of time rates of change of rate (shadows of the orders of temporal curl [one economic case of which being “margin spiral”, aka “cumulative haircuts”: see, “Haircuts”, Gary Gorton and Andrew Metrick, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Review, November/December 2010] induced by temporal operations, i.e., with respect to quantal operator-time and F. A. von Hayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”). Economics has to study these latter to REALLY discover: Why EMU meltdown? Why now? Shadow banking as introjections of “shadows of the orders of temporal curl”? Doubling: the doppelganger, The Double, a shadow upon shadows. Role of the Jungian shadow-archetype in the collective making of projections : negative space, uh, uh, negative of space, signifying that which we loathe, that which we cultivate an obsessive need to remove, to deny awareness to. Out, out, damned quantum dot! For a good introductory surface-structure account, see: “Why the UK Trail Of The MF Global Collapse May Have 'Apocalyptic' Consequences For The Eurozone, Canadian Banks, Jefferies And Everyone Else”, Zero Hedge, 7 December 2011. No twirled brolly is rehypothecating rehypothecation, the “churn” of collateral (velocity of re-use, and I would add acceleration and time rate of change of acceleration in re-use: see, “The [sizable] Role of Rehypothecation in the Shadow Banking System”, Manmohan Singh and James Aitken, International Monetary Fund, IMF Working Paper 10172, July 2010, p. 9) upon debt carosello. If leverage equals “gearing”, then fractional reserve lending in the shadow banking system as an automatic transmission manufactured by Global Broking Motors: spur gear upon spur gear upon spur gear unto infinite regress, each such smaller-faster gear increasing the torque upon systemic risk transfer-translation and concentration in climb up the Devil's Staircase (a case of “conversion-disorder displacement at [differential] transference” -- both financially and psychologically: m-valued fiber-bundle arithmetics suppressed, hence regressed, thus automatically projected in infantile derivative form). Also, site percolation thresholds and mode locking -- mode locking by, say, a “Golden Rule” (see, for use of this term: “Eurozone Treaty Changes to be Finalized in March…”, MISH, 6 December 2011; I would further note that subscription terms to Eurointelligence also, in part, explain current PRx and Rx of/for the EMU), a universally applied prescriptive fixed rule, impervious to Little Devil's Staircases running debt percolations between “boulders” and “rocks” in the aggregate. Ain't got no notion of a real system, so take that corporate person, uh, uh, that nation-state person, to the European Court of Justice, to the UN Climate Court, to Sagan's Science Court. That'll do it! Do what, make'im into a suicide bomber? And after that EMU person is taken to the World Court, will NATO occupy the EU? Will recourse to Marshall Law be Tekken under non-canonical UN-IMF mandate? The step up the Devil's Staircase between the supersovereign tread and that suprasupersovereign is being taken. A debt as a Pore Space. Bundling of debts as Pore Space connectivity. Size effects and not-so-random walks UP the Devil's Staircase (not just kicking a can down a road referenced to memetime), a staircase, whereupon finiteness is not conflated to fitness, which is the connexion of finite-size-EFFECTS going to self-organized M^nk-criticality (i.e., exponential divergence from finiteness-in-effects; transcendence of the Newtonian “limit” of a sequence and entry upon Cantorian set [and how blindness to this relates to collective psychodynamics of continued tacit rejection -- a kind of malingering, one in the long list of “neutralization antagonizing forms of resistance” clinically identified in decades of patient's-records analysis conducted by practitioners of Autogenic Training-Therapy, and strangely-significantly-revealingly ignored by Germans, this school of neuropsychiatry having had its origins in pre-Nazi Germany -- of the Axiom of Choice and associated insistence upon supposed efficacies of one or another Golden Rule: can't resolve parallel-distance alleys which have become J. G. Bennett's “pencils of skew-parallels”; see, for evidence of individualization of psychogenic literal-not-metaphoric blindness, “Psychological Blindness, A Case Report”, M. N. Parikh & H. M. Shah, Indian Journal of Psychiatry, 42:2, 2000, pp. 209-10]; cuspover into Abelian transalgebras; conversion from one Lukasiewiczian mth-order of logical-value to another such). Effects of walks up the Devil's Staircase on “gravitation upon a price” and influence of this “gravitation” upon outputs from money-pump injection nozzles. Jubilee, don't you see! Because she loves you, the Great Nanny; yes, she loves you. Yeah-yeah-yeah. Jubilee! Yeah-yeah-yeah. Print oil! Print oil! Print oil! If she can print solar cells, she can print oil. Yeah-yeah-yeah. The Devil's Staircase is a Cantor fractal set with self-reflexive relative-state identity-transparencies by VIRTUE of the Schrödingerian memetime-independent part-whole hologramic relations demonstrated most notably by the infamous Diagonal Proof (not really a growth sequence and by no means a corpus of probability amplitudes [for a good, if surface-structure focused, recent critique of current applicability of Taleb's fat-tailed black swans and SFI complexity, see Jim Leis, “Black swans and complexity”, Leisnetwork, December 2011: quoting, “…the largest reformation of governments in history”; got that right, and a “reformation” on the back of incendiary collapse in utility of two-and-a-half millennia of ₁T₂-valued-logic “uses”, in the Swedenborgian sense], both referenced to memetime and, in complexity/chaos theory, a 2^nk fitness landscape, not an M^nk articulation space). If mainstream economics is to be given up, then, before forecasting for fun and profit, make a metaPROCESS, which functions a whole lot better than any monetary system had theretofore, by defining into existence currencies over what is actually an autopoietic ANGELIC Staircase of Abelian-Cantorian-Bellian-Lukasiewiczian-Schrödingerian-Everettian-vonHayekian cyclotomic decomposition which, any which way, including fiat loose, thematically orchestrates, regardless of iatrogenic regulatory interventions, the market dynamics with which currencies of any sort necessarily are involved. Such a “defining into existence” would itself necessarily involve -- and is necessitated by the century and a half of quantum-based-technology infusion we have sustained -- implementation of continuously changing fractal e-boundary nesting-foams upon which economic and administrative variables are mapped and remapped by ongoing computer gaming via the electronic commons. What do we hope for instead? Jim Leis hopes for, quoting his paper, “We need to rebuild our institutions from the ground up, with simpler, more conservative rules we can follow with clarity”. “Simpler, more conservative rules” could accomplish “…the largest reformation of governments in history” only if we were to smash the century and a half of QUANTUM-based-technology infusion we've been subject to on this post-peak-everything planet. In Japan, it appears, the answer is a simple one-time change of ₁T₂-logical administrative boundaries, a change not even actually requiring assistance of GoogleEarth/OpenLayers and/or a GIS (geographic information system), let alone an SDI (a spatial data infrastructure, no Strategic Defense Initiative, unless to defend against deleterious effects of federalization and/or globalization) -- and even that one-time change appears an insurmountable task (see: “Political earthquake in Osaka”, Kevin Rafferty, The Japan Times, 7 December 2011):

Set a two year time limit for redrawing the administrative map of Osaka, Kansai and Japan as a whole to create a 21st-century Japan that can be an example of democracy for the world.

Gee whiz! Won't that be swell. Jus' takin' care a bisnest? Stop thinking of a commodity-backed vehicle-only LETS currency as paper money; stop thinking of it as supped-up debit/credit card-swipes; stop thinking of it as Cyberia e-money in Noospheric Cloud-computed satellite-WiFi-wire transfer; stop thinking of it as certificates of ownership to gold, silver, this or that GMO's genome; stop thinking of it as nanobundled derivative-swarms of climate-shift probability amplitudes and other such instruments on ₁T₂-memetime, be they mortgages, stocks, bonds, default insurance, whatever. Think of a given LETS currency as a “community of practice” with a chat room and VirFut Q-Pro, superposed alternative-memefutures, multiple-scenarios, message-gaming board, with ever-changing entry/exit codes accessed with keys-to qua signifiers-of allelotropic (of each other) bonding constituted as m-valued-exchange units, defined upon and processed over m-logically-valued fractal e-boundaries-without-boundary constellating a band-pass fractal-drum mapped, by a frequency-response-characteristic-sensitive GIS, into and onto a site-percolation-based SDI defined in terms of vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”, spaceship PlanetEarth. Lift geography into topology, topology into Everett-vonHayek chronotopology -- then Musculpt it all as to become a user-friendly interface. You think? The truth of it is: your worst enemy is your best friend -- your own side. Double entendre intended. Is there an episode in the history of special service corps worldwide, back to before the Roman Empire, before Gladiator, before The Last Samurai, wherefrom the surviving intelligent operator did not come away having re-learned that lesson? Hate -- not love -- I should have thought, means you don't say sorry. Bet safety, whut, on those cats in Cheshire, on thesis they'll be chasing down council rats slipping flags of MossSide Flats? Tut-tut-tut. Strangeways, indeed. Swallop -- from cod or shrimp, matters it not. Amongst the corpus of humans, all those affiliated -- affiliated every which way but loose -- will be opposed to “…the largest reformation of governments in history”, as the currencies necessarily involved are lethal existential threats to selfsameness in identity, i.e., the Umwelt-whatnot which affiliation, as a Kantian metaphysical category, is all about. Paradoxical? Only under ₁T₂-valued logic. The Peeping Tom power of fiction/film Blow-Up : cultivation of identification states, which “paradoxically” reinforce the sense of selfsameness, which “validate”… hate, and witches on and on and on. “La, la, la, la, la, la, la”: Law of Sevens, missing-semitone “shocks” not indicated. “Blow Up”, my Lords, my haters. If there is a Last and First Men issue operative at the present global conjuncture, this is it.

The part of Vandana Shiva's talk (linked above) I liked best was:

We do, we now run, I run a course called “The Grandmother's University”… and it's a very simple course: let the wisdom of our grandmothers not die out.

When I was young, the people I most imprinted upon were old, outsiders, or both: my grandmother on my mother's side, in whose house I then lived; my mountain-woman aunt; a grandmother in Midori Gaoka, verdant hills (not to denigrate importance of my teenaged amah, relationship with whom was similar to that of Little Mister Jim with Sui Jen); a sourdough in Alaska. Three women and one man: weighted to the distaff side. My grandmother, the mother of twelve, whose husband died during the Great Depression while many of her children were still young, ran the family business called “The Plant” in a small south-central Pennsylvania market town called Greencastle. And the surrounding territory was truly a castle of green agriculture. The family business was a multi-business. A home-cooked-meals family restaurant, later at night a bar, catering to many, foremost among which were restaurant-going Mennonites, because the food was THAT good. It was also a home-cured-meat butcher shop, a dairy producing its own cheeses (my teenage mother drove the milk truck over the mountain picking up the metal milk cans), and, in season, an apple press producing the best well-chosen multi-apple-variety cider, apple butter, and apple sauce Pennsylvania has ever seen. The huge stacks of wooden apple crates were my first mountaineering challenge. The backyard of the house adjoined The Plant and possessed a smokehouse wherein the salt-and-sugar-cured hams were done -- as well as the hickory-smoked sausage. Located in the stonewalled basement of the family house were giant oak barrels of apple-cider vinegar -- which I used to sneak down to, and turn the wooden cock upon my mouth. The first Rx for any illness in Grandmother's House was Dr. Jarvis' vinegar-honey-lime, enemas, and, if a URI, camphor vapors. During harvest season for the surrounding family farms and orchards, the backyard of our house was filled with foldout tables, staffed by twenty to thirty women for weeks on end daily canning every vegetable and fruit available. Case upon case upon case of Ball jars. These were shared amongst the women canners, and were also staples of the food prepared in the restaurant aspect of The Plant. My job, as an 8-year-old, directly assigned by Grandmother, was to go down to The Square, which was actually a circle (awareness of which I think probably had some sort of effect upon my mathematical imagination), to the tiny A&P, carrying a little wooden bucket, and wait for the half hour it took the wooden cock to fill that bucket with black-strap molasses. Thirty-three years later, Nha Trang and I first put pen to paper (actually keyboarded a Mac 512k) to write The Moon of Hoa Binh in an apartment located over what once was that A&P (I did not choose the apartment; my father, who knew nothing of my childhood history with the A&P -- for he was, during that period of my childhood, located in Japan/Korea -- chose it for us while we were doing research at Doug Pike's archive in Oakland).

Surely not, Mr. Dor. Euro functional dynamics, not “monetary theory” (see: “Bank of France debt jumps tenfold on capital flight”, Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, The Telegraph, 6 December 2011). Quoting AEP quoting Eric Dor of the IESEG School of Management: “We are in unknown territory in terms of monetary theory”. In establishing a bogus equivalency between euro functional dynamics and monetary theory, Mr. Dor is actually saying: Monetary theory is to us unknown territory. And note the exponentiation of the actual inequality involved accomplished with a statement made by David Cameron after opting out of the recently apparently agreed euro potential new accord whereby bankrupt sovereigns loan to the IMF in order to receive loans from the IMF and Tobin tax their financial transactions in order to support their poor, which is to say the big EMU banks (see: “New treaty to save euro splits European Union”, Angela Charlton, AP, 9 December 2011). Quoting AC quoting PM Cameron: “We're never going to join the euro and we're never going to give up this kind of sovereignty that these countries are having to give up.” Speaking in terms of actual monetary theory, what is the unknown territory thereby implied? The economic territory ₁T₂-logically contained by the in-or-out integral-boundary upon which legal tender is pounded into the so-regarded “optimum currency area” David Cameron PMs. Whereas, the post-postmodern quantum-economy version of “The Emperor's mandate stops at the village gate!” would employ framework determining conditions which spontaneously localize the sovereignty “gate” to _µT_m-valued-LETS-logic gates mapped on Riemann-surfaced fractal-e-boundary nesting-foams (don't Print oil!: along with scalable printed-solar-cell sheets [see: “While you're up, print me a solar cell”, David L. Chandler, MIT News, 11 July 2011], print Rice-Pereira-transcendental-formal-logic “Layered Transparent”-sheets of _µT_m-valued-LETS gates) capable of making unknowns into knowns fine-grain-tagged and linked to incentives and sanctions facilitating autopoiesis via band-pass OpenLayers plasmahauts universally covering the vonHayek time-shapes of a self-bankrupting planetary economy entering a complex domain of post-peak-everything depletionary dynamics lashed to an exponential growth-in-use curve. So, I personally agree with European officials' assessment of Cameron's move, as reported by The New York Times (see: “German Vision Prevails as Leaders Agree on Fiscal Pact”, Steven Erlanger and Stephen Castle, 9 December 2011):

European officials argued that Mr. Cameron had in effect fallen into a French trap, making demands that most of his colleagues felt were unrelated to the euro zone crisis at issue. France has long desired an inner European core based on the countries that use the euro and excluding the free-market British.

Cameron's demands clearly were unrelated to the EMU crisis at issue. What they surely were related to is “where” the U.K. is likely to be relative to a WWIII which The London Daily Mail already prints essays upon (The LDM being much more mainstream and far less conscious-conspiracy oriented than are the LaRouches: see “The Oligarchy's 'Solution' for the Euro: World War III”, Helga Zepp-LaRouche, Executive Intelligence Review, 9 December 2011), and which the eurozone is helping to provoke with “creaking” bank funding (see: “Eurozone banking system on the edge of collapse”, Harry Wilson, The Telegraph, 9 December 2011) and a “collateral crunch” (for good account, see: “The IMF and the Collateral Crunch”, Perry G. Mehrling, Institute for New Economic Thinking, 9 December 2011; as linked by ZeroHedge, but I try always to go back to the original). The “IMF trick”, to quote Mehrling, will be to take off-balance-sheet unto to itself, eventually unsterilizing that wad with de novo free-SDR-issuance, in due course requiring redefinition of SDRs and their role in the global monetary system. And where the wheel stops, likely, as ZeroHedge points out vis rehypothecating rehypothecation, by a low-level cog sticking it up… No Neville Chamberlain, it turns out, is David Cameron. The U.K. certainly doesn't want to be strategically located in “an inner European core”, nor a prospective Germano-Russian Bloc. Flash forward to 15 December for a similar assessment from Ambrose Evans-Pritchard (see: “Europe's blithering idiots and their flim-flam treaty”, The Telegraph). Quoting the article:

Did France and Germany really have to cause this rift by throwing in an assault on the City that has precious little do with the EMU crisis?… Does France, for that matter, really want to be locked into a clammy embrace with an ever stronger Germany? The whole purpose of monetary union for Paris was to tie down a reunited Germany with silken cords. France now finds its own hands tied because of EMU, reduced to a humiliating side-kick.

Blench upon Chortle-on-Seine they do, dear, don't they: that's Le sud en fleurs for you! Uh, uh, I mean schizoaffective Schadenfreude… uh, by The Crucible metaphor that is, Ms. Myra's Blaine-induced, circa 1952, Sudden Fear. OMG: in for tuppence, in for a CDO/repo. Hanging gut, disheveled clodhoppers down at the chin. HG DCH DC: got that synaesthetic dispo-transpo, what SUPPOSEDLY plagued A Beautiful Mind, do you, love? Always “the once before”, what. Tang-style poetry: down with dogs, up with fleas. Homme Fatale Rat-Pack aesthetics, jockeying sulky long-shots well-harnessed. Fageddabouit! Really, I mean: really -- Hamburger or Frankfurter, that is the question. Yes, explicit, if lagging, in policymaker mind, or perhaps still basically subliminal, all this is really only about tacit incipient alliance making. One must, however, state a caveat regarding AEP's take: though the City had “precious little” with regard to the overt EMU crisis, it had precious lot with regard to subtending-EU shadow banking system churn, gearing, margin spiral -- none of these three being adequately conceptualized, even. But, being fully aware that the line of investigation I've pursued this last half century could be well wide of the mark, I've tried, but failed, to take out PI-malpractice insurance; also unavailable, I've found, are appropriately default-under-written swaps, derivatives, postable bonds.

A type of brain stimulation, I find Michael Hudson's reflections upon collective PTSD-induced substitute memory, which he [in}stru}mental}izes to memory-implantation intentionality (see: “Europe's Transition From Social Democracy to Oligarchy”, Michael Hudson, 6 December 2011, first printed in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung ):

Much more striking is the travesty of German history that is being repeated again and again, as if repetition somehow will stop people from remembering what actually happened in the 20th century. To hear ECB officials tell the story, it would be reckless for a central bank to lend to government, because of the danger of hyperinflation. Memories are conjured up of the Weimar inflation in Germany in the 1920s. But upon examination, this turns out to be what psychiatrists call an implanted memory -- a condition in which a patient is convinced that they have suffered a trauma that seems real, but which did not exist in reality.

What happened back in 1921 was not a case of governments borrowing from central banks to finance domestic spending such as social programs, pensions or health care as today. Rather, Germany's obligation to pay reparations led the Reichsbank to flood the foreign exchange markets with deutsche marks to obtain the currency to buy pounds sterling, French francs and other currency to pay the Allies -- which used the money to pay their Inter-Ally arms debts to the United States. The nation's hyperinflation stemmed from its obligation to pay reparations in foreign currency. No amount of domestic taxation could have raised the foreign exchange that was scheduled to be paid.

Actually, as I understand from reading-into, the spiral began domestic, with central bank printing-into so as to fund WWI expenditures, reparations levied in foreign currency being stacked thereupon. Reichsbank printing forced domestic flight -- just as, by fractional-reserve credit creation, Thai banks massively lent and the Thai superrich borrowed, fled-the-baht, bought foreign in run-up to July of 1997 (then, later, when the baht fell, repatriated). A WWI -- etiology of which having been deep-structure involved with an Axiom of Choice imputing animistic-pagan identity-transparency by infamous Diagonal Proof, the very same diagonal, found so offensive to mainstream sensibility, seen-heard in Cubism of plastic art and poetry. (Incomplete sentence used to associate, not only to Incompleteness Theorem, but specifically to the suggestion that nothing “deep” about WWI has yet actually been completed.) But who-what are the real culprits HERE? Step inwardly aside from all the arrogation accretions upon the notion humans have ketaminergic cognitive capacity for intended fundamental collective decisions. Answer: spontaneous localization of the currency system to only one scale-level, that of the nation-state, and, when growing quantum-techno-forced spontaneous fusion, popularly denoted “interconnection”, puts too large a price on such scale-level-“decoherence”, federalization -- qua domestic-snuffing -- to the next LARGER-only scale-level (a reactionary anti-animism kneejerk in denial of the indisputable fact that there is no nazified-purified simple-identity of component processes in pagan systems autopoietic by virtue of superposed quantum-composite relative-state). And consequent utilization of ₁T₂-logical in-or-out integral-linear-dimension borders -- national, supranational -- upon which, and within which, legal tenders of ₁T₂-logically-valued currencies are defined. By way of support, I quote Mike Shedlock with regard to the WTO (see: “…'Fair Trade' Idea is Self-Serving Scam…”, MISH's Global Economic Trend Analysis, 15 December 2011):

Once one comes to the proper conclusion that trade is between individuals, not nations, and that everyone should have the right to make trades they deem to be in their own best interest, the notion of “fair trade” can easily be seen as a self-serving protectionist scam.

Spontaneous currency localization to the nosebleed level, the scale-level of the nation, in and of itself, insures unfair trade. Moreover, progressive globalization is, itself, a walk up the Devil's Staircase in risk transfer-concentration and usurpation of local multiplier effects. In a world of exponentially growing quantum-based technology, there is no possible-world logic by which the balance of payments/accounts dyscrasia could be homeopathically cured with ever more potentized doses of QEing -- or, ₁T₂-conversely, with ever accelerating recourse to the bankruptcy courts: consequents of the technology infusion will all ways and always outrun all such reform efforts. Is there a STEPWISE transit between ₁T₂ and _µT_m modalities? My personal experience suggests not: “OK, I won't ever say anything else like that then”, exactly my childhood self-correction upon an ill-advised mention of my “Plexiglas wall experiences” (see, for elucidation: “Synaesthesia: when two senses become [are] one”, Laura Barnett, The Guardian, 5 December 2011). A Cartesian-Newtonian system cannot, in principle, be reformed-transformed into a quantum system; the replacement must be brought up de novo from below, whilst the old is progressively retired. Indeed, in failing attempt at self-repair, the bankruptcy courts are being leapfrogged by preference functions accorded to European Court of Justice, World Court, UN Climate Court, Science Court, courts yet to be imagined in run-up to. . . an update on boiled-lobster “Thermidor 00:00, 1929” (not to mention BakedAlaska). Again quoting Hudson's article:

The kind of warfare now engulfing Europe is thus more than just economic in scope. It threatens to become a historic dividing line between the past half-century's epoch of hope and technological potential to a new era of polarization as a financial oligarchy replaces democratic governments and reduces populations to debt peonage.

For so bold an asset and power grab to succeed, it needs a crisis to suspend the normal political and democratic legislative processes that would oppose it. Political panic and anarchy create a vacuum into which grabbers can move quickly, using the rhetoric of financial deception and a junk economics to rationalize self-serving solutions by a false view of economic history…

Transit from warfare to warware? But is the false view of history, the substitute or implanted collective-memory corpus, cultivated primarily, or most fundamentally, to serve self-interest -- and, if not, are approaches predicated upon assumption it so serves likely to be effective? No and no -- insuring massive dissipation of efforts by those making the wrong assumption. The whys and wherefores of such cultivation go as deep as deep can be in regards to prescriptive enculturation-socialization, art-music-designsystem tropology, physics, mathematics, metaphysics, logic, metamathematics, metapsychology -- and no imagined solution set ignoring these dimensions in new-system-design criteria has a significant chance of success at facilitating human passage over the coming cuspover.

Uh, uh, well… on a much deeper level, one may construe it as ₁T₂-self self-defense. There is no logically-accommodative fashion by which to seriously doubt the proposition that, if mega-trends of the last half century continue substantively unmodified, democratic nation-states will be nuking their own mega-urban-regions -- metaphorically, if not concretely -- in order to save them (we already see adumbrations of a concrete case in Japan). This or that geopolitical subset smugly loping toward self-euthanasia by manmade events of mass self-destruction. Selfsame and enduring ₁T₂-identity (for the Buddhist, essence of Maya): a Kantian category which is substitute-memory-implanted by glutamatergic neuronal etching at prescriptive enculturation-socialization beginning in the womb. Bunko Gaffle, author of the grifter tome: Head-of-a-Pin Sophisms, E[con}omic and Meta{psycho}logic. One thing not well understood about the identity conundrum qua multicultural upset is that stigmatization of “the other” is not only about compensating a sense of self-inadequacy, but also, more deeply, a reaction to challenges to (such as quantum mechanics) validity of the very idea of simple-identity. Affect-charge gripping many of those in the anti-abortion movement, for instance, can be understood as in considerable measure signifying compensatory abreaction to the challenge to simple-identity presented by genetic engineering -- indeed, the prospect for, and likelihood of, motherless human cloning (slaveclones are absolutely necessary, y'know -- if we are to overcome post-peak-everything by Moonmining and Marsmarshalling of natural resources) is a regressive expression of fixation upon simple-identity and associated obsession with technologies of life extension on a planet already arguably over-populated by some 4-5 billion people vis ecologically-balanced sustainability (given existing techno-regime, and those regimes currently projected). Can't handle the overt, then gander the subscene. King-of-Kings: kakureta kata-of-kata. What my meta-historical, counter/Collingwood-Popper, Thucydides-like, “Substantialism”-type account of the origins of mass-total-absolute warfare describes are algorithms-factors-kata of that collective-predator paraphilia governing human-species spoofing-response to population overgrowth, resource depletion, anthropogenic climate shift, and the involved march toward voluntary, mass, ₁T₂-self-euthanasia outpunching-noising-overriding, under auspices of, let it be said, a prolong-the-agony program. When public liability is personal injury by quantum relative-state, what is the burden of proof in a post-Gödel world inconsistent, incomplete, and -- by Heisenberg inequalities -- indeterminate? The eating-itself agonistic law-by-rules qua rule-by-laws, universal, species-wide, catholic, corporate, normotic, pedestrian (each an accurate descriptor) paraphila-gestalt converts, projects, transfers, expresses, acts out in countervalence to anything construably a threat to the glutamatergically-etched, ₁T₂-simple, habitually in-the-body, absolutely-in-so-far-as-distinct identity construct -- identity in limine motion over lower bound, “illegally”-obtained evidence of the “many-valued” being suppressed [look up this last in-quotes term in a good collegiate dictionary, going back to pre-WWII editions: hey, I'm into bonding-values, but not truth-value and not supposed values of leadership, a subversion of autopoiesis; refused every leadership opportunity presenting, including the offer at SRA/MACV-J2 of a direct commission to Louie Lite] -- prescriptively enculturated-socialized to, and persisting in, freqs-specific, factorable, molecular-scale-only, overloaded, ZeroHedge-identified (clearly indicating sophistication of insight) memory “111011010010101010101011 Buffer[s]”. Leaders always “deeply” engage the conversion-disorder displacements characteristic of the prevailing normosis, because their socially-conferred role-attribution “ascensions” are predicated upon personal identification with those characteristics and the ability to inculcate transference dynamics relative thereto in members of their constituencies (in respect to this metapsychological dimension, the only difference between a Hitler/Manson and any other leader is solely a matter of degree/expanse: not only do we not need another hero, we need not another leader). Since we still haven't been smart enough to create a real-human system qua real human-system, we will yet again just have to take one another's heads off.

This is a fascinating analysis of the recently announced 3-year LTROs (long-term refinancing operations) now on offer to Europe's banks by the ECB (see: “ECB Liquidity: Back-Door Bazooka Or Suspension Of Democracy, BARCAP Opines”, Zero Hedge, 16 December 2011) -- the analogical model in design involved here being the subprime adjustable rate mortgage qua corresponding bank-CDO, heh-heh-heh, neuropsychiatrically conversion-disorder displaced-lifted up several scale levels in the nested-grid application space. But all this just goes to show how massively fungible are the myriad mechanisms by which the Devil's Staircase may be climbed (anyone interested in cascade dynamics -- from the inside out, “looking through” -- of falls from this staircase's Last Landing would do well to view Joe Goode's “Waterfall Series” of paintings). Park up and glance down through the sheaves, paying no never mind to market-stall Rubbish Theory: deevine right of the ego-sphere inflated by identification with personified Godhead; [inte}state primogeniture within the well sound system; droit du seigneur qua jus primae noctis lordover first-night right to any underling's horizontal wife, the myth tropologically signifying presence of the 90-degree-twist/cascade archetypal event gradient; and, in collective projection, origin of the nation-state's claim to immanent, uh, uh, eminent domain over whatsoever sodding space; plus insistence that coin of the realm, legal tender of which being defined over the collective ego-sphere's borders, be ₁T₂-logically-valued, just as is that ego-sphere itself, ever-inflating in being globalized. 'E's a great pinhead, is Euro, uh, uh, Ego -- angels beyond counting (see the “Treaty of Debt” VDO on the ESM to learn how, despite what Church says, that the incalculable can follow upon the recursive). Unwillingness to share wealth within the EMU is a mere shadow of the convulsive projectile vomiting (via collective projection) of animistic-pagan relative-state identity-transparency which has repeatedly seizured Europe since Abel, once again, constellated it with his “Impossibility” Theorem of the 1820s. Like with climate shift, once the suppressed autopoietic operators are activated, all extremes prevail independent of ₁T₂-logicality: Gnostic-Catharic-Manichaean-Albigensian duobus principiis Inquisitioned-excommunicated by the ecumenical Lateran canons. “Excommunicated” is an early example in application of binary-only cybernetics, an application mirroring the “duobus” despised and, itself, in violation of the Restrict regarding the Fallacy of Non-Contradiction, for ecumenical excommunication, like sustainable development, is a Monad's oxymoron. Despite Canon 11, bugger those Bogomil Vulgarians, those Homoousian consubstantialites! The pagan Greek modes (not to mention the signatured time-shapes Brubeck serially explored during 1963 in “Time Changes”, thus surpassing “Time Out” and “Time Further Out”) were superseded by well-temperament. Thus shall it remain! We have come to fight, you Titans, for the City of Ballaora. Kill them all! God will know His own. Down with Modalism, that M-Theory heresy of Noetus. Out, out, damned Mⁿ! Factorials be frigged. But I want, uh, uh, MUST HAVE, the Devil's Staircase be a Penrose Staircase! so say those on tricyclic Asendin with papilla blackholes. Three ₁T₃-simple identities, not a ₁I₃-non-simple relative-state identity-transparent hyletic Divine Substance. And, nowadays in the EU, not only is a down-grading of nation-state-scale democracy at issue (Greek city-state democracy having long long-since been put down, as was much more recently village-scale democracy, e.g., on Cheju-do) because more-and-more-centralized knee-jerking-misnomered-as-“planning”-tortoise runs against the Achilles-autopoiesis of natural systems (an infinite-regress fractal-dilemma for ₁T₂-logic of pre-Hellenistic origins, i.e., Parmenides' notion that “all is one”), but also social structure of attention cathexes even more fixated upon “risk-weighted” means we continue even longer to wait for the various “weightings” capable of authentically addressing the big issues: population overgrowth-thrush, exponential growth in entropy-generating uses, post-peak everything, global ecocide-genocide by the manufacturing of agriculture, an anthropogenic climate shift which is no mere greenhouse warming, continued drift toward space-based PW1. For a Kissinger approach to several of these see National Security Study Memorandum 200, dated April of 1974, entitled “Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests”. I was a little ahead of Kissinger, for I began in private conversation during 1968 -- by contemplation of the larger implications of the Vietnam-war free-fire-zones application of Samuel P. Huntington's phrase “forced-draft urbanization” (see his Foreign Affairs article of July 1968: “The Bases of Accommodation”) -- to forecast a holocaust of the WholeEarth (still, hard onto 2012, nothing one can find anywhere transpiring mitigates likelihood of this occurring at cuspover). But the approach I subsequently have attempted to develop is decidedly non-Kissingerian. On Kissinger-Huntington precedent alone, one just must wonder as to the raw intelligence attributed the Harvarderian. Time-shapes-sensitive fine-grained tagging (i.e., weighting) of indicators to m-values stacked upon base-state of locally-specific “diversely identical” commodity-backed Lukasiewiczian LETS e-nesting-foams is no derivative devolution of “risk-weighted” -- except insofar as incorporating application-space externalities to vonHayek-time-shape-sensitive market mechanisms of autopoiesis may be regarded as minimizing aggregate risks as to the big issues. Quantum [eco}nomics, if not Newtonian [econ}omics, being mainly about organization of Uses and Users. We are not speaking here of index-protection bias, under certain circumstances, of arbitrageurs playmaking in financials space (i.e., with regard to index-named financial products from which single-name products drop out by involutory decomposition): however much single-named corresponds to single-valued, index-named does not correspond to _µT_m-valued. This observation is apropos no less to currencies and their composites.

Attention should be drawn to a documentary film project being undertaken by Jamie Janover entitled “Infinite Realms…”. Quoting Janover's commentary: “Black holes are a dynamic that we see happening in the structure of spacetime at all levels, at all scales.” When dynamical meteorologist Douglas A. Paine forty years ago wrote into an NSF report, summarizing research conducted during the late-1960s and very early-'70s with respect to tornadogenesis, that acoustically-modified gravity-wave mode analogues (not the tornadoes themselves) to black holes exist in Earth's atmosphere, he was, essentially, in effect, and in retribution, made persona non grata. As regards the ellipsis placed in Janover's film title: that dot-dot-dot replaces the words “The Unified Field” because it was apparent by end of the 1950s, with all the failed higher-dimensional field theories, that the notion of “field” is not general enough to be adequate to an authentic GUTS. The same conclusion could easily have been drawn by the mid-'70s with respect to all variables of spacetime geometry, e.g., curvature, symmetry, connectivity, orientability, and so on. By the end of the 1980s, pregeometry as the calculus of propositions (i.e., ₁T₂-valued) could easily have been seen inadequate -- and, by extension, any truth-valued calculus. By now, end of the first decade of the 21st century, giving consideration due to imports of _µT_m-valued Lukasiewicz logics, understood independent of the notion of truth-value, it should be apparent that GUTS itself is inadequate to a grand unification, because THEORY is a cognitive tool/vehicle LOGICALLY inadequate to the task. Why so? Nature is not selfsame (pushing this fact off, peddling it as multiple universes, just won't do; no more than will continuing to push the same fact off by interpreting the wave-function of Schrödinger's time-independent wave equation relative to probability amplitudes rather than _µT_m-valued logics), and no theory developed by samesame, uh, uh, selfsame, cognizers can sufficiently possible-world “her/him/it” (in quotes because selfsameness -- indeed, any sort of personification -- does not apply to nature): knowledge-though-identity (i.e., identity-transparency) is required.

So long as ₁T₂-simple identity is clung to, there is no alternative to reduction of vonHayek time-shapes to the memed, real-numbered, linear case alone. Consider, for instance, curve overlays: superimposition of, say, equity curves, from different memetime periods (see, for examples thereof: “…Chart Analogs To Pre-World-War Periods”, Zero Hedge, 14 December 2011; consider the implied overlay of 1873-1896 upon 2008-2031 presented by Matthew Lynn in “This slump won't end until 2031: Our predicament parallels Long Depression of 1870s”, The WSJ's MarketWatch, 14 December 2011; of course, there were no world wars during the period 1873-1896, the period of depression roughly coextensive with The Gilded Age, and one can discount as altogether underwhelming Arthur Herman's stab at debunking, entitled “The Ultimate Stimulus? World War Two and economic growth”, The Weekly Standard, 12 September 2011). Spontaneous internal psychological opposition to cognition of these transparencies-overlays, not as a superIMposition, but as a quantum superposition, is directly propriocepted (initial tightening in the chest, then rising to awareness of the various other bodily sensations of gathering flight-or-fight fright-panic reaction) as necessitating an unwanted pilot-fixation-syndrome, information-overload, 'I'-failure-type case of the cognitive bends. Once upon a memetime, my 'I' had much experience with this (and witnessing it in D. A. Paine's Cornell classroom), studying theta-e surface topographies, staggered grids, polynomials of phase-distortions, Goode “looking through” vertical hystograms, mobility hystograms, normalized hystograms, averaged hystograms unto pictorial-nomogram mosaics <<<<>>>> with index-lines drawn across “pencils of skew-parallels” (not parallels) representing n m-valued dynamical variables processed by nature under m-valued logics. Those who argue that something -- be it climate shift or financial-monetary-system crisis -- really rather simple is being unduly complexified must simply be regarded rather simplistic simpletons. Transcendental-e mediated, log-spiral, Lilliput visual phenomena at autogenic brain discharge: e.g., “analytic”-CubismFORM “psycho-ideographs” of faces authentically troping inner states superposed (collection of which being the only book-of-faces compilation ever of interest to me), and, more elaborately, with taste-polymorphic color-field Musculpt dynamic-polymorph transforms. My egoic 'eye/I' cannot remember itself whilst simultaneously, s, holding two periods of memetime as simultaneously, s, existing -- let alone an infinite collection thereof (as is required by F. A. von Hayek's Everettian notion of the “time-shapes of total capital stock”). An s exponentially stacked upon an s exponentially stacked upon an s into Infinite Realms of regress over _µI_m-non-simple 'I'-ness is experienced by glutamate-etched ₁T₂-mind as, to say the least, over the top -- and almost certainly to be designated one or another M.D.'s “syndrome”. But, in “truth”, heh-heh-heh, the ₁T₂-simple 'I'-ness identification has to go, if time-shapes are to be actually (not merely theoretically) allowed into cognition. Pain is involved in making the transition in awareness -- voluntary suffering. Conscious embrace of existential guilt is higher-order birthing. Cantor bindu-dust is initially received as a yogic bed of nails (archaic case of conversion-displacement, qua acting out, at transference by projective-identification); temporal curl, as prodromal vertigo, with syncope episode at the 90-degree twist into first-order imaginary operator-time and associated overdetermination, superintegration, hypercorrelation. The invariance of Hamlet's Mill, what, of, that is, the Vedic “one-wheeled car”, at solar-terrestrial complex-angular-momentum cascade leading to tornadogenesis and associated cosmic-lance current injection at intersections of geomorphic spatiotemporal leyline qua songline meridians (such intersections being continuously-migrating physical-region singularities [scale-specific twistorized Penrose closest-packing bindu-dust “nail points”; twistor as quantization of temporal curl] upon which _µT_m-valued autopoietic topological operators are Christmas-tree-effect mapped). [Bit}ot's conjunctival spot-triangles pointillistically flooding the visual field as photismic “warm-golden dust of Supermind”, as yama no kami dusti-sheets come down in Shaktipata to protect with Riemannian covering-surface the little rice paddy (nail-holed Pascal's triangle, icon of pre-Vedic tribal India's female handicraft guilds, out of which Tantric practice demerged) when Brownian micromotions of the first two eyeballs subside, along with the associated residual-tension of the extraocular muscles going to zero action-potential. When the psychiatric community stepped in and stopped John Nash's acting out (as depicted in the film, at least, by string-and-pin, bold-line, arrow mappings of quantum-composite hyper-inter-connectedness; whereas, from early teens, I've prophylactically destroyed all my drawings, paintings, and most of my scribble-notes), a making-conscious of actual imports of this type of 90-degree twist is exactly how and precisely what was prevented (lack of relative-state identity-transparency at any and all Nash equilibria in game theory is the clear marker): a tragic event, one denying access to sorely needed human-species survival skills. For an elementary heuristic illustration of the pain: eyes closed, try to imagine presence of something, say a doppelganger, to the left of the head while turning eyes right. See? The quantum superposition required, if VirFut Q-Pro is to be Musculpted as vonHayek time-shapes, [man}dates, as a functional prerequisite, sufficient differentially-relaxed non-doing so to allow immanence of _µT_m-non-simple (not to mention _µI_m-non-simple) identity (3-valued logic as essential property of the transcendental-made-immanent is inadequate). Here we have a Tripartite-Fertile-Crescent-Religion dimension to SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act: see, for instance, “SOPA: Washington Vs. The Web”, Zack Carter, Huffington Post, 14 December 2011) unattended: the dressing down of quantum-based technology in a Cartesian-Newtonian overcoat-persona of patent law -- by Gitmo-Twist calquing of the white-collar corporate-bankster-politico Criminal Mind -- is an act of collective suicide which The BAU (behavioral analysis unit) ought to investigate, even if, and especially because, the Emperor's New [smart?] Clothes appear to be protection for ₁T₂-logically-valued identity qua simple-ownability qua bombability qua GTMOability. Techno fundamentalism of Masters of the Universe in parallel with Chastity's Bible-belt fundamentalism in parallel with UBL's Islamic fundamentalism in parallel with obsessive Clinger attachment to a supposed/imposed “classical limit” Witch Bull qua Linus van Pelt security blanket. If implications of the transalgebra “Impossibility” which N. H. Abel demonstrated (i.e., provided an existence proof for) during the mid-1820s have yet to be psychologically assimilated, as is certainly the case, then none of that Impossibility's derivatives, elaborated over the subsequent two centuries, have actually been assimilated to normative cognition (increasingly normotic/PC as a norm-of-backreaction-upon-the-metric of ketaminergic desocialization by meditation and contemplation and creation and discovery and experimental demonstration). If one wishes to know why human life on Earth teeters ever closer to the brink, why anthropogenic climate-shift has been reduced to green-housed anthropogenic global-warming, why non-selfsame light cannot possibly travel faster than selfsame light even though that's exactly what it does, why, why, why… this is very close to the bottom-line explanation. If the popular music industry, Hollywood, TV yet to leave the breast, right along with ₁T₂-logical monetary units, do not become part of his story, then the larger human story will bitter out in sputters. Intellect, cognition, individual consciousness as ownable property qua commodity qua financial instrument qua fetish object of the paraphiliac leadership elite -- unusable in absence of selfish self-interestedness -- had Hellenistic Greek body-muscle-identified Laocoon origins, but flourished only with the Greek revival known as the Italian Renaissance, whereupon egoic awareness/self-definition was patented in binary distinction from the vanishing point of the linear perspective it projected as a precursor to mathematically-designated space and time (plus and minus in real-numbered whole-integer Euclidian dimensions: just what has been experimentally demonstrated over the past century as altogether missing from nature, missing even from psychometric Luneburg visual space, while found in Piaget's enculturated-socialized glutamate-etched stages of cognitive “development”). What is suppressed-repressed expresses as regressed, e.g., in lieu of non-simple-quantal-empathic _µI_m-identity-transparency, ₁T₂-logic-identified I/i-Sarkozy (see: “Sarkozy reparle de 'rupture'”, Guillaume Tabard, Les Echos, 22 December 2011) crossed into Merkel, yielding, not Merkozy, but Sar²kel. Nonincarcerated collective-paraphiliac (i.e., actor identified with socially-conferred role attributions, and not yet rescued by serotonergic drugs and/or psychostimulants) “acting out” in conversion-disorder format and in compensatory abreaction to the suppression-repression. Is it any wonder that collective human behaviors founded upon what is altogether missing should have foundered, should have been utterly disastrous?

Just as I've been arguing for a goodly long period, i.e., that a resurrection of the 19th-century gold standard or a BW-type gold exchange mechanism would be to E-MU the planet when it needs _muT_ming, now so says Deutsche Bank (see: “Is The Euro Today The Gold Standard Of The 1930s For EU Economies?”, Zero Hedge, 13 December 2011). Arguments for ownership of gold (note that Mark Faber has recently stated the same reservation regarding “buy gold and hold” as I have stated [see/hear: “Mark Faber: 'I Am Convinced The Whole Derivatives Market Will Cease To Exist And Will Go To [Zeno, uh, uh] Zero'”, Reuters/ZeroHedge, 21 December 2011], i.e., quoting the VDO interview: “I would also own some gold. I am worried that one day governments will take it away.”) and for making gold a global reserve currency have no actual intersection, because self-similarity and scale-relativity, in this domain of application, are substantively modified by bifurcation behaviors. There are notable differences between a universal covering surface and its decomposed covering surfaces, differences of significance to monetary theory. There are bifurcations, for instance, between unit of account and store of value. And between store of value and exchange vehicle. And the uses/roles of each of these are not optimally selfsame across all levels of covering: a major consideration as regards issues involved in failures to balance trade/account at various scale levels, e.g., globally, EMUly, and so on. My intuitive feel for these sorts of considerations (gained largely from studying severe storm genesis under tutelage of D. A. Paine) leads me to the view that there should be no global reserve store of value and no global vehicle currency, only a global unit of account (and _µT_m-logically-valued processor qua “clearing union” over the involved quantum-composite universal covering of vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”), whilst all LETS vehicle currencies should have reserve-store-of-value backing by locally-specific commodities fine-grain tagged to Riemannian covering surfaces locally “contoured” and “spontaneously fused” to the unit-of-account universal covering employed for global clearing (a clearing that then would significantly facilitate human adaptation to the big issues of the prevailing global crisis). Economics, while surely not the be all, may, nonetheless end all, for, though it be but a tiny aspect of a very big context, it is largely responsible for organizing human responses to changes of that context under the principle that organization varies directly as to growth, a principle carrying all into cusp catastrophe. Market stall, growth failure, retox to higher-order binding sites, insolvency, deflation, deleveraging, dehypothecation, depression could be the means by which the human species survives -- if and only if economics degree-zero were to far-from-equilibrium precipitate a substantial phase-shift rethinking-detox of fundamentals across all aspects of the very big context.

I really don't want to get into that here, as mentioned in our novel The Moon of Hoa Binh, 1994, which I was vaguely aware of from conversations overheard as a kid, circa 1953-6, at Ashiya, AFB, kita-Kyushu (where my father had earlier, from 1951, I think, organized air/sea rescue operations, having previously flown them out of BW-1 in Greenland and the Azores, and having flown, before that, whole of the Berlin Airlift [just for context, a skytrain initiated immediately after phase transition from a cigarette-currency to a new Deutschemark was rejected by the Soviets]: for one evocation of Ashiya, AFB, see Yul Brynner starring in Flight From Ashiya, 1964, a story set during the early-1960s, regarding activities of an Air Rescue Squadron [the 39th?, and no, my father never commanded this unit: too low a rank at the time, for this onetime B-17 pilot {Berlin: not as bad as I thought [[see photos posted by Der Spiegel, 10 January 2012]], not as bad as Dresden, as firebombed Tokyo, as Hiroshima even when I was taken there by my father} had lost a promotion while “lost and presumed dead” after having been shot down over occupied France and finally making his broken-ankled way, with help from the Maquis, by boat back across the English Channel, a promotion never recovered vis-à-vis his peers throughout the following two-and-a-half decades]; every year up through my teens my father received Christmas cards from onetime Maquis members, notes of reminiscence thereupon which I read with fascination), and much more aware of from 1967 onwards per conversations then engaged in at JFK Special Warfare Center (with the then-about-to-retire Nisei Japanese career-undercover CI agent I there worked directly under): U.S. military KMAG (Korean Military Advisory Group) counterintelligence advisors to ROK Army CI and National Police at the very least knew of the pre-June-1950 operations north of the 38th parallel involved in provoking, by applications in “positive intelligence”, the North's invasion. Memories, like so much else, are nested, don't you think. See, for evidence recently made available: “The life history of a Special Intell. Agent in Korean War”, Military Photos.net, 6 April 2004; as well as “Valor awards for Donald Nichols”, Military Times, which notes: “Major Nichols arrived in Korea in 1946 and by the time the war broke out, had established a network of more than 900 spies to work in the North” (though this statement is inaccurate -- the number 900 actually refers to the number achieved sometime after the war had started -- its import is surely valid); as well as “In the Devil's Shadow: Don Nichols and U.S. Air Force Special Air Mission”, Michael E. Haas, Air Power History, Winter 2001; and “The Origins of the Korean War: An Interpretation from the Soviet Archives”, Evgueni Bajanov, Alternative Insight, June 2000, which notes:

In the beginning of 1949 the Soviet embassy began to alert the Kremlin to the growing number of violations of the 38th parallel by South Korean police and armed force. On 3 February 1949 Soviet Ambassador to North Korea Shtykov bitterly complained that the North Koreans did not have enough trained personnel, adequate weapons and sufficient number of bullets to rebuff intensifying incursions from the South.

I might add that No Gun Ri was no bridge in human affairs; nor was the 1948 putdown of the Cheju-do Uprising, as noted above (see “List of massacres in South Korea” for links). Just for context, let it be noted that the Little Berlin Airlift was initialized the day before initiation of the Cheju-do 4.3 “incident” and “pacification”. Put Don Nichols together with John Paul Vann together with Charlie Wilson together with Oliver North together with… and we have a what-kind-of-man theory of history?

What do Austrian School economics, Nashian game theory, Talebian “Black Swan” statistics, Mandelbrotian financial analysis, catastrophe theory, chaos theory, SFI complexity theory, percolation theory, Dawkinsian selfish-competitive genetics, and the like have most in common? Surface structure: survival-of-the-fittest social Darwinism; deep structure: tacit assumption of ₁T₂-logical identity-opaqueness. Here is an interesting Wall Street Journal op/ed piece suggestive as to the missing intermediates between surface- and deep-structure, insight concerning which would shed considerable light upon the “black box” which is the “invisible hand of the market” (see, as posted to Zero Hedge: “'Black Swan' Fund Creator Explains Why Central Planning Has Doomed Us All”, Mark Spitznagel, 23 December 2011). Quoting the article:

Seeing periodic, naturally occurring catastrophes as part of the growth cycle requires thinking more than one step ahead, not only longer term but, more specifically, intertemporally. This is perhaps an insurmountable cognitive challenge, both to investors and central bankers…

What exactly does Spitznagel mean by the word “intertemporally”? I suggest that he does not quite know, but does know that something in the realm of temporality is missing from the schools of thought listed above. Intertemporally: superIMposition or superposition? This temporal-"something… missing”, F. A. von Hayek used the term “time-shapes of total capital stock” (an economic reformulation of the Everettian “Relative-State Formulation of Quantum Mechanics”) to denote (a reformulation of Everett's original formulation before modified by Wheeler-Bohr-vonNeumann preceptor iatrogenic intervention). What on the organismic, cellular, and molecular levels may appear -- when viewed through a Cartesian-Newtonian lens of tacit assumptions concerning functional specificity -- to be survival-of-the-fittest, on the quantum level, which insures functional integration independent of random statistical thermodynamic drivers of the non-random, is hologramic relative-state identity-transparency (which makes every scale a quantum scale). And the “perhaps an insurmountable cognitive challenge” Spitznagel mentions is the logical-value phase-shift required in going from a 2^nk fitness landscape to an M^nk articulation space -- a transition yet to be made even in the outer reaches of the “M Theory” of theoretical physics (at least so far as I know: when universal physical constants -- like the “absolute limiting velocity”, the “minimum time” and the “minimum distance” -- are m-valued, and processed under m-valued Lukasiewicz logics, Heisenberg indeterminacy is no universal constraint, each nested m-value thereof being scale-specific, i.e., to strip away the blackpsyche with the blackswan, relative to the given scale Abelian-Bellian cyclotomically decomposed at quantum measurement by autogenic discharge over glutamatergically-etched brain). We counsel topomax, not Topamax -- [bi}polar disorder being a maxing out of the ₁T₂-or normotic and not of the ₁T₂-and bi.

With collateral rehypothecation, a higher-order of exchange process is employed than with simple monetary-exchange units alone -- indeed, the former superposes the latter. Not just velocity of collateral in churn (see: “Velocity of Pledged Collateral: Analysis and Implications”, Manmohan Singh, International Monetary Fund, Working Paper 11/256, November 2011). Also acceleration and time rate of change of acceleration. Think of collateral chains as analogous to “intermolecular electron-transport chains” (integrity of which Nobelist Albert Szent-Györgyi argued is essential to cancer prevention). Where does this heuristic analogy most break down? Electrons carry m-valued relative-state information; whereas collateral presently construed, single-valued information only. Genesis of collateral rehypothecation was systemic response -- within an unending-growth qua fermentation-type system -- to quantum-based-technology infusion -- potentially an “undifference”-engine of “diversely identical” [hetero}stasis -- but, in the case prevailing, a “regression-in-service-to-the-ego”-type response by “virtue” of the anal-stage retention involved in retention of single-valuedness. [Id}iotic indifferencing of I/i-Stellar egoic automatization-demands superegoed with kata/kakureta-kata rule-chains enculturated-socialized and anchored to the molecular-cellular brain with electron-transport-chain-quenching glutamate-etching. No small number have by now come to regard the whole edifice of modern jurisimprudence, indeed, jurisimpudence, as a crime against the nature of Nature. A look at Goethe's Faust is not a deep enough look (see: “How Goethe's masterpiece is shaping Europe”, John Plender, The Financial Times, 29 December 2011). Look, at the very least, to Goethe's Zur Farbenlehre. Chromodynamics of the instant! If higher-order processes of information exchange are effectively to be [im}ployed neurologically, econometrically, recurrent electron-transport-enhancing endogenous ketaminergic deautomatization (e.g., by concentration in self-reflexivity, an internal-dimensioned Calabi-Yau analogue to _µT_m-valued logics, Musculpted visual-phenomena access coming with autogenic abreaction) is indicated. Currently, still absent Scriabin's color organ, the artificially intelligent -- most of us -- cultivate internal-dimension cutoff. Cutoff how? Over-empathy back-reaction animus push-off projection; over-abstraction back-reaction anima pull-in identification. Cutoff what? Thinking in connexions of feeling-tones, in superpositions of sensation-gestalts -- and their cross-modal, exponentiated-quale, [syn}aesthetic Sensorama Sensora-tropes-of-transition (e.g., taste-polymorphism: how many quality-distinguishing words do the Japanese have for the “slimy” quale-qualia? two dozen?) to natural language transliterations. Is [syn}aesthesia neuropsyciatrically distinct from synesthesia as malfunction of qualia analog to Newton's single-valued-variable qua single-valued-logical Laws of Motion? Not to mention wholly subliminal, but potentially conscious, sound-of-no-sound thought of no-mind cognition. Animationpath in colorspace? Color-wheeled chromodynamics of the chronotopological twistor? Are such tropes combinatorial properties of computational logics? Hmmm. Pure ₁T₂-logics (deductive or inductive, with subtypes, e.g., modal); conditional ₁T₂-logics (and-mixtures of de-in-ductive). A fuzzy truth-value truecolor shadingpolygon interpretation of _µT_m-valued logics is real-numbered gray-scale/hue between 0,1 either/or no/yes yin/yang. Another interpretation of _µT_m-valued logics is conditionality/and-mixtures of de-in-ductive, understood indicative of intentionalities of the collectively-unconscious as relative-state-induced event-gradients cyclotomically decomposable to Musculpt trope-precursors.

in such pre-“natural”-language-of-languages semiotic (whenever a language-use is a “calling the thing by the name of its opposite”, we know a cover-up, if not a covering surface, is involved) being of what the pre-Hellenistic Greeks knew as HylePsyche (already becoming lost to conscious knowing in being personified, personification being intrinsically ₁T₂-glutamatergic). Nolle prosequi? Nope. The indictment stands: [mono}archs and face-card derivatives, intrinsically felonious, howsoever burdened by magnum charters, have never had a basis in nature. But this is young people's work -- preadolescents, teens, and, at the latest, twenties: in prevailing prescriptive cultural environments, the requisite concentration-energy -- tapas -- fast fades. Don't forget it was The Beatles who brought down the U.S.S.R. -- not the counter-command-economics intellectual legacy of the synergist founder of biogeochemistry, Vladimir Vernadsky, author in 1926 of The Biosphere; not UBL; not Reaganomics; not non-Band-Aid diplomacy; and not military-tech breakthroughs obviating need and efficacy for/of garrisoning Eastern Europe. Heh-heh-heh! However, a military-minded, en banc, hip-hop BREAKdancing analogic (or Cantor-bindu-kami-dusti Yayoi Kusama paresthesia analogic transpose to post-quantum-relativity chronotopology: those suffering chronic normosis find schizo/bi-polar/depressive artists and mathematicians and writers and composers and musicians and dancers wherever their darned paradigmatic security blankets are threadbare :: burn them at the brainstem, these days, we do, whoot, no longer at the stake!), one might easily surmise, is no authentic (i.e., sans collective conversion-displacement in projective-identification) way to cultivate animistic _µT_m-valued identity-transparency -- the looping of breaks, the head spin, the suicide-freeze Sakharov stacks, and all. As are all Hollywoodized dystreatments of relative-state identity-transparency. Contrary to mandates of the scriptwriters' guild, and these writer's ₁T₂-takes on exogenously introduced ketamine, _µT_m is not to be found in VR, but in Be Here Now. Conversion-disorder displacement compensating what? For having been so severely glutamate-etched. Not ol'time soul food; not traditional kimchee: misdemeanant Pagan Babies crackin', Riding the Rap. Swedenborgian Doctrine of Uses. Be a reflexive-self User, not a Program constellate or a mere Projection of inception/extraction.

And speaking of the "Devil", i.e., Newton's univalent, we have here available an observation attributed to Keynes by the Executive Director of Sorosian INET, Robert Johnson (see/hear the VDO interview, entitled “Bringing in the Gunslinger”, Part 4, 13 December 2011, of Nicolas Wapshott, author of Keynes Hayek: The Clash that Defined Modern Economics ). Quoting Johnson:

The other thing that he [Keynes] did, which I think is very important, as distinct from Newtonian physics, and I'll cite, it was a letter to Roy Harrod [presumably the English economist and Keynes biographer] he wrote I believe in 1938, where he stated that what makes a good economist is one who can create a model but can distinguish between those things which are constants and those things which are variable…

Though, were Keynes truly in genius, by 1938 there was already more than enough, including _µT_med Lukasiewicz, on the scene for Keynes to have questioned single-valuedness of universal physical constants, and, by extension, continued utility of ₁T₂-valued vehicle currencies (including all possible [Bit}coins not actually [Mu-it}coins) -- thought paths leading to such questioning involving the asking, along with cycle-finding Zeno-Parmenides, whether the variable might be constant, and, with Heraclitus, whether the constant might be variable, and if so, how so: “Though changed and yet the same, I rise again”, to quote the tombstone of Jacob Bernoulli, the mathematician contemporary of Newton who most notably worked on transcendental curves, curves not conforming to the rules of algebra, such as those curves depicted by the oscillations emanating under good offices of temporal curl from superconductant pi-electron gas core of DNA, discovered the transcendental number e, and investigated the logarithmic growth spiral, which, run backwards, is important to cascade processes at tornadogenesis and to falls from the landing of the Devil's Staircase -- we will not retrospectively ask that of Keynes, only why the Executive Director of INET, so late as 2011, should strongly endorse this Newtonianism as being distinct from Newtonian physics. Not incidentally, Bernoulli discovered e whilst studying compound interest, which is a “jus' tendin' ta busnest” way of attending to Eulerian Identity: the transcendental and complex written over 0, infinity, 1 (infinity supratending transcendentality of e and pi). The number e, essential to mathematical depiction of derangements like that accomplished by financial derivatives, is a transcendental (i.e., irrational and uncountable) continued fraction in imaginary/hyperimaginary cyclotomic decomposition cascade, which is its own antiderivative, or, in other words, it is a discrete of antidifference in indefinite integration (hence, in no trivial sense, imputing m-valued logics with its self-referential reflexivities). Had Bernoulli's contemporary, as Master of the Mint, attended to his colleague's notion of transcendentality, rather than to that notion esoteric and Masonic and Deist, we easily could long ago have had a global monetary system based upon m-valued monetary units market-processed under m-valued logics -- the type of system The Clingers to this day prevent. Why would I, whilst studying tornadogenesis, “fixate” upon Abel's early-19th-century “Impossibility” Theorem, rather than Bernoulli's late-17th-century discovery of e, as death knell of the Cartesian-Newtonian Weltanschauung? Because discovery of a most-strategic transcendental number was not nearly so much a slayer as was demonstration of the existence of multiple universes of transalgebraic maths.

Uhh-huh! What they see they want they borrow (see: “Correcting the Growth of Human History”, Bill Bonner, The Daily Reckoning, 22 December 2011; note that Bonner has no suggestion as to correction). Unh-unh! Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility of “fiscal exsanguination” (see: “The Economic Solutions of Vampires”, Brandon Smith, Alt-Market, 23 December 2011; note that Smith notes that “The question of solutions is difficult…”). Why a dearth of solution suggestions? Because there are no real-numbered solutions to credit overgrowth (look at the role of e in depiction of compound interest, for instance), population thrush and associated exponential growth in resource-use post-peak-everything, only those imaginary- and hyperimaginary-numbered: so long as a glutamatergically-pruned human brain continues to experience memetime as if it were an objectively “real” linear-time, there is no “correcting the growth of human history”. And what, economically speaking, does this conversion-disorder displacement -- by projective-identification at collective ₁T₂-subject/[physical]object level of the transference -- of a meme accomplish? “Why do we worship these angry market gods?” (see: “Why Are We Forced to Worship at the Feet of Mythical Financial Markets Controlled by the Elite?”, Les Leopold, AlterNet, 20 December 2011). Consider “You cannot go to Paris while remaining in London” (or words to that effect): thus spoke Maurice Nicoll, offering a metaphorical exhortatory, a raising of the banner to inner work. But even this Harley Street Jungian -- a master of simile, metaphor, and analogical trope, demonstrated by The Mark of The New Man -- in commenting at length on Gurdjieff-Ouspensky, did not escape the experience of Living [meme]Time. Such is the power of Newton's clutch upon, especially, the English-speaking subset. Yet, we now know that, at the very least, not only elementary particles, but also small molecules, can, indeed, “go to Paris whilst remaining in London” -- and, by _µT_m-valued time-independent Schrödinger wave equation, that all time-like words, e.g., “while”, are glutamatergic in their Piagetan stages-of-cognitive-“development” effects upon human brain. Put A Brief History of [meme]Time, as well as steam engines and their derivatives, behind us -- and move on to and onto complex/hypercomplex operator-time and vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”.

As above, so below: images of “pathological” tornadoes displayed above and below a tornado-shaped “EU Credit Implosion” graphic. Here (noted-linked by both Zero Hedge and MISH) we have an anthropic perspective responsible for anthropogenic outcomes: “ECB's LTRO Won't Stop Collateral Contagion!”, Gordon T. Long Market Research and Analysis, December 2011 (in case this abstract page is ephemeral, find the PDF version here). This is an excellent piece -- no whale of a bloviator; indeed, bloviation is what is described -- the most important summation being, to quote the article:

There are approximately $55T of banking assets in the EU. This compares to only $13T in the US. Bank Assets in the EU are 4 times as large as the US.

In the US, debt held by the bank is smaller because retail deposits are a primary source of funds. EU banks use wholesale lending and, as a consequence, the debt held by banks is closer to 80% versus less than 20% by US banks.

Wholesale bank lending in the EU approximates $30T versus only $3T in the US, a 10 X differential…

Assuming $30T of loans is spread over three years, EU banks have a requirement for $800B / Month of rollover financing for wholesale lending outstanding.

But more interesting to me, is the fundamental push-cause/pull-attractor displayed in juxtaposition of tornado and credit-implosion graphic. Ah! Even if the abstract page isn't ephemeral, the above-and-below tornado-image adverts are merely recurrent (refresh until the tornadoes appear: perfect! example of synchronicity at projective-identification). Anyway, this view of tornadoes is absolutely myopic-anthropic and altogether ignores their functionally-integrative, adapting-to-both-above-and-below roles vis-à-vis complex angular-momentum cascade in electro-bio-geo-chemistry of WholeEarth. A humanistic perspective, not an “ecosystem” (Arthur Tansley, 1935) perspective, on tornadogenesis, a perspective, I submit, fundamentally responsible for anthropogenic credit implosions, violations of “ecology” (Ernst Haeckel, 1866) and integrity of “biosphere” (Edward Suess, 1875) and atmosphere and magnetosphere, and so very much more. Not so difficult, therefore, to see why German Constitutional Court Judge Di Fabio might mistakenly conclude that this problem goes back to the 19th century, when it really goes back at least to the 17th (see: “'It is a Mistake to Pursue a United States of Europe'”, part two: "'No State Can Save the World on Its Own'", Deitmar Hipp and Thomas Darnstadt, Der Spiegel, 28 December 2011). Quoting Judge Di Fabio, as quoted in the article:

There is no ideal solution on earth, nor is there one that dates back to the 19th century.

Which is not to mention N. H. Abel's transcendental contribution of 1826 (anthropogenically contravened by M. Born in 1926), altogether neglected since Abel's memetime in the recurrent attempts to darn stadt (town, city, urb stitched to megaurb stitched to Lander stitched to Nationalstaat stitched to Transnationale).

The IARPA-funded (Intelligence ARPA) forecasting tournament (see: “Building a better forecast”, Dan Gardner, Ottawa Citizen, 28 December 2011) got a huge belly laugh out of me. Once those mounting the tournament have put the questions to be addressed, they've already sealed the case: questions tacitly sowing prescribed policy criteria determine much about the intelligence product reaped. “Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies.” As an intelligence analyst during the Viet Nam war, I was periodically tasked (most often in the form of questions). I devoted little time to these taskings, whipping off responses on the fly, whilst continuing to focus my attention on the real work, little of which was likely actually ever to be circulated. My interest in the subject matter was deeper than was that of the questioners, intrinsic, and over a much longer sweep, the questions of greatest interest to me being those intersecting fundamentals in many fields. The degree to which the persons asking the questions didn't know what truly needed to be asked, even for their own purposes, and couldn't/wouldn't listen when told, was dwarfed by their lack of knowledge of what it was they supposedly were attempting to ask about (what they thought they were asking about didn't actually exist, contents of the “black box” in question being so different from what they could imagine). Just to trivially demonstrate this thesis, I responded to a tasking which came down through channels from those negotiating at the Paris Peace Conference, responded with answers, background, and maps. In each of these, the same piece of information, as bold as is Philadelphia to a road map of eastern Pennsylvania, went missing. Sure enough, several weeks later, this undersight was reproduced in a major news magazine. No one anywhere up along the line had picked up on it -- which was illustrative of how much else was not known to them, which is not even to mention the word “understood”. So long as EEI (essential elements of information) and the hierarchy of abstract-to-concrete questions asked do not remain in a state of flux and at the discretion of those immersed in the analytic task, policy determines the assessment, not vice versa. By way of heuristic illustration, I would offer a parallel observation: the more one learns about tornadogenesis, the less one's interest in numerical forecast models is for the forecasting of tornado outbreaks, because such models potentially have far more important uses, and more accurately predicting outbreaks would further reinforce existing non-adaptive built-environment strategies. Evolution of the assessment should yield its own question chain/hierarchy and generate strategy/policy, not the other way around (this statement is apropos of the domain of discourse related to the tournament described in Gardner's article, and in no way relates to, say, VirFut Q-Pro).

Here is the most focused argument I've yet seen that Japan is already integrating to a Greater China: “New Asia Union Means Fall of the Dollar”, Brandon Smith, Alt-Market, 30 December 2011. Of course, I'd much prefer to see m-logically-valued LETS implemented, rather than yet one more currency union in formation. For further thoughts on this see: “China and Japan Find Common Ground”, Francesco Sisci, Asia Times, 5 January 2012.

Neuropharmacologically speaking, society in general, the legal system in specific, is, indubitably is, endogenous glutamate excitotoxicity; experientially speaking, glutamate excitotoxicity is processing with ₁T₂-valued logic (syllogistic, rotational) alone; the antidote to both (i.e., glutamate, ₁T₂-logic) is trophotropic endogengous _µT_m-logically-valued ketamine flood (AKA “no-mind” in Zen). War/not-war (hence, “war powers” and derivative constitutional overrides) is a binary distinction which experientially breaks down in animistic “Injun country” (this “breakdown”, as denoted in social anthropology: AKA contagion, “participation mystique”, “participation inconsciente”). In [after}math of Abel's “Impossibility” Theorem of 1826 demonstrating existence of transalgebras (an existence Cantor's much-hated Diagonal Proof demonstrated tantamount to identity-transparency [which psychiatrically-manipulated and DOD-programmed Hollywood reductively, and mistakenly, and intentionally, if somewhat subliminally, dysrepresents as being mediated by fiber-optic multiplexing: see Avatar, the film, not the…] in respect to the cardinalities case), the legal distinction between combatant and noncombatant has, experientially, progressively broken down. Of course, the deep-structure factors herein identified have been at play throughout human history, but the trajectory just described has been the recent composite trend line. Mass/total/absolute warfare has constellated as a human behavior in no small measure due to suppression of the _µT_m-logically-valued, that suppression altogether disallowing conscious integration of relative-state identity-transparency. Infusions of quantum-based technology have exacerbated the full array of human-into-nature/interface problems with the institutionalization of the Cartesian-Newtonian-Westphalian/Congress-of-Vienna automatization qua Weltanschauung, and the ₁T₂-logically-valued legal system (not to here mention: the ₁T₂-logically-valued monetary system) is struggling to maintain its mandate -- a futile struggle, as ₁T₂-rule regulation (and conventions of ₁T₂-monetary-unit exchange) cannot hope to control manifestations of _µT_m-valued processes being ever more forcefully thrust upon the socio-politico-economic scene by the increasing recourse being taken to quantum-based technologies. Insane institutional behaviors are becoming more and more normative because THE quantum brain of humankind has, in roundabout fashion, invaded its molecular-cellular brains.

Slope, change of slope, slope cut-and-paste/reentering itself (in whatever dimensionality chosen). Be aware that velocity, acceleration, time rate of change of acceleration are linear-memetime-bound ways of speaking of active (not reference-framed) first-, second-, and third-order operator-time and associated temporal-curl order-types -- transposes between order-types being marked by absolute limiting values relative to the nesting-foam partitioning domain constellated at M-scales quantum measurement (“measurement” including any act of, in binary terms, perception/proprioception). Binary speaking: internal and external source-sink terms. Any authentic self-reentry is no mere narcissistic ₁T₂-self-reference, for topological reentries are openings (such openings being no mere no-self states) upon the internal Calabi-Yau dimensions of relative-state identity-transparency -- not exclusively upon external reference frames. Cascade theory of tornadogenesis (and, by extension, Paine's characterization of solar-terrestrial complex/hypercomplex angular-momentum exchange processes) treats velocities as markers of intrasystemic-information (i.e., quantum of CHRONOTOPOLOGICAL action as information unit, which is construed by memetime-bound mind as tiny time-differentials/differencings) exchange; accelerations/decelerations (including directional/connectivity changes), intersystemic exchange; time rates of change of accelerations/decelerations, self-reflexivities/reentries/non-orientabilities at “exchange”. With the third-order operator, the notion “exchange” has altogether lost its heuristic utility, due to Abelian-Bellian cyclotomic recomposition (requiring no memetime, for in no way contextualized to a temporal REFERENCE frame) over the MVRS (i.e., m-logically-valued reference space -- that is, Lukasiewiczian Hilbert space, or, in other words, Tzog-chen AllBase). When, by neglect, time rates of change of accelerations/decelerations, and the accelerations/decelerations themselves are collapsed to velocities-analysis alone, factors associated with the former two are conflated to the latter (i.e., to velocities, and their relative absolute-limits, such as was done in Einstein's most famous equation yielding dirty atomic-nuclear explosions-energy, a conflation which now -- in this day of accelerators -- neutrinos vigorously protest). When I read papers on collateral rehypothecation (a poor economic mimicking of the Sun Goddess' elemental alchemy) and, say, food-price volatilities (see, for example, “A Punch to the Mouth: Food Price Volatility Hits the World”, Gregor Macdonald, ChrisMartenson, 3 January 2012, presaging the famine coming, which we are unlikely to crib) such considerations as these enter my awareness. Glutamate-etched addiction to memetime precludes the ontic apperception (and, hence, theoretic appreciation) of Einstein's c² as a pure chronotopological operator: this miasm cannot be cured with homeopathic doses of exogenous ketamine. Human response (the elaboration of myriad types of “epicycles”) since Abel's contribution of 1826 strongly suggests that this condition will not change. We would do well to demur on several points of BITTman's review of Cribb (see: “Seeing a Time [Soon] When We'll All Be Dieting”, Mark Bittman reviewing Julian Cribb's The Coming Famine, printed in The New York Times, 24 August 2010). If the Vietnamese example, when they were embargoed, is any clue, we'll all be eating a lot more glutamate. Bittman observes:

And of the many who've followed in the Malthusian tradition, none have been correct: overpopulation has caused problems, but, as noted above, the percentage of people starving has actually declined.

The word to append here is: “yet”. Why “percentage of people starving has actually declined” is the sector of the “post-peak everything”-curve chosen as referent. Good numbers (regarding every thing composing “everything”) increasingly appear as cusp surface rises to hoick buckleover-foamout. Bittman further observes:

…if it [Cribb's book] doesn’t make you restock your survivalist shelter with another hundred pounds of rice and beans -- the book does offer sensible ways to help alleviate the “global feeding frenzy.”

Let it be noted that nowadays having more than seven days of food storage in one's home is enough to be suspected of supporting terrorism (corollary: in the world of overpopululation, preparations by the hoipolloi to survive are criminal), and we all know where that now (i.e., after 31 December 2011) can indefinitely lead. Few of the bitological commentators I've read speak of the emergent built-in obsolescence of food, an obsolescence incumbent upon dead-soil-induced plummeting nutrition-value (one major catalyst of eating disorders); leaping rates of viral, E. coli, staph, et cetera, infections, increasingly antibiotic resistant, of eatable assembly-line-manufactured animals and birds and their clones; the acute and increasing shortage of available varieties, e.g., of apples, grains, eatable oils; the increasing availability of pseudo-eatable polymers and oils, processed such that free-radical content is maximized, and thence packaged in materials bleeding mimetic estrogens, such pseudo-eatables produced by pseudo-people fixated on production of potatochip-flavored chicken, or, probably, it is chicken-McNugget-flavored potatochips; increasing pesticides-herbicides-antibiotics-allergens-HeavyMetals residues in foods, particularly those containing grains and sea products; rise in accidentally-induced radioactive hot-particle count-per-portion; greater incidence of intentional irradiation of foodstuffs; expanded dosing of wine grapes, canned everything, bacon, supermarket vegetable-and-meat misting-freshener fluids, you name it, with excitoneurotoxins like free-glutamic acid, glutamate being the neurotransmitter most responsible for killing neurons/synapses, this synaptic-axonic killing-etching-pruning unto _µT_m-quenching being designated by the evermore omnipresent sociopharmacologist as the “long-term potentiation” involved in regulating development and reparation of [politically-correct substitute]memory, [₁T₂-prescriptive]learning, and [₁T₂-Piaget-type Euclidean-object-constancy]maturation; growing agroindustrial titers of pseudo-eatable GMO-designer grasses-veggies-grains self-producing herbicides and pesticides, and, I expect, given the state of US-China relations, soon beans, e.g., soy, designed-engineered to self-produce MAO inhibitors backstopping the caponizing mimetic estrogens they already self-produce, these same soybeans GMO-implanted with Group-II catalytic intron-exon complements exhibiting at least one lariat A-residue branchpoint and extracted from fishes with high tyramine titers. Heh-heh-heh. A new form of counterinsurgency, what -- a replacement for nation-building. Innocent, we are, yes, we bipolars. We are what we eat -- and what we eat, more fundamentally than eating post-peak oil, includes neurological facilitators of the long-dead Cartesian-Newtonian paradigm and its presently self-terminating institutional base. Becoming again as little children, i.e., only minimally subject to the effects of synaptic pruning, so as to enter The Queendom of Heaven is not comprehensible in the philosophy to which the sociopharmacologist clings. No matter to what degree of complexification-parallelification neuronal plasticity brings a ₁T₂-logically-valued network, that network will never cease being the lowest order of _µT_m-valued processors. Endogenous excitotoxin glutamate is the foremost "soma" inducing Electric Sleep which every Zen-practicing hunter of Blade Runners -- in The Cube of hisher Brave New World -- has found some way to reduce or shunt or reverse or float in an ark above floods thereof. Used to be that horrible planetary outcomes were conceivable; nowadays, absence of such eventualities is just barely conceivable. Ask what human subset is the Murder, Inc., of greatest consequence. Or is it that incorporated is itself murderous? Good food went the way of Peter Gillingham's Good Work. Farmer Joel's article, entitled “Everything I Want to Do Is Illegal” (Joel Salatin, ACRES U.S.A., September 2003, as noted/linked by The Automatic Earth), is one of the best pieces I've read on this subject. For one, if what Salatin says is accurate -- and I do not doubt his testimonial -- the well-paid jobs I had as a teen would these days make me a criminal: hired by the USAF to help build log cabins at a remote site in Alaska, aerialist swing-scaffold painter's helper on DEW Line radar domes, 12 hours/day as a roustabout on a flight-line laying crew running against deadline of a penalty-clause contract at Eielson AFB, grain grader and general maintenance person for a small grain elevator just outside Yellow Springs, working high steel in Cleveland with native American ironworkers. U.S. Farmageddon goes back at least to my father's father (who lost his tenant-farmer status during the Great Depression, the son having to quit high school, and only later to pick up a GED, probably the main reason he prevented me from quitting school in 1962 to homestead in Alaska): the best-quality food available on the planet over the last few decades has been found in some rural loci of some relatively poor countries where food has been predominantly small-holder grown-husbanded in the immediate surround; until the airport opened and the road was improved, Lijiang, Yunnan, was a superlative example of all-organic for thousands of years at the very least -- but not any longer.

As I have long believed: ultimately, there are no precedence relations -- logical, ontological, temporal. But ultimately is only ultimately, nothing less -- and there is a lot less. Quantum measurement -- which, ultimately, by virtue of m-valued universal physical constants, is all measurement -- is, indubitably is, personification, personification further (not farther -- or, cosmogonically speaking, further is nonorientably farther) up the ladder of the lesser, further abstracted, further up the ontological, and, more ultimately, logical accommodation, spectrum. But not by inversion of a collapse of Schrödinger's memetime-independent wave-function, by Abelian-Bellian cyclotomic re-decomposition of the supersymmetry space. As should be obvious, these notions amount to no subscription to the idea that (by group theory) collective action is the integrated sum of constituent individual behaviors; rather that individual behaviors are decomposition products of the Schrödinger memetime-independent manifold branes expressing the relative-state of prevailing _µT_m-valued identity-transparency. Whether humans like it or not, and no matter how much humans might try to have it otherwise, human systems are natural systems. Human systems have always and all ways spanned the full spectrum from most concrete to most ultimate, but heretofore human systems DESIGN has stayed close to the concrete, and left the more-ultimate domains of action to collective unconscious event gradients constellated largely by archetypal processes of projective-identification at transference. My thesis is that, if humans are to make it over the cusp surface risen largely on the back of tapping directly into quantum-relativistic properties of nature, human systems must be consciously DESIGNED across the full spectrum, such that techno innovations are no longer driven primarily by regressed expressions of the suppression of the _µT_m-valued principles governing the more ultimate domains of action. But there is little room for optimism in this regard, for the whole human effort ever since rise of mathematics in its modern aspect and emergence of New Physics has been back-reaction into glutamateric recoil of ever growing proportions.

Events seem to be stacking up in support of the 2012 Mayan thesis, but I have no insight into this, and just put a big question mark upon it. If, however, 2012 does turn out to be a major tipping point, I still would put little credence in current accounts as to how the Mayans arrived at their 2012 thesis -- whatever that thesis exactly was. Why? As I have argued, tropological attributions to numbers, i.e., the multiple metareferential meanings of a given number as arrived at in the various types of numerology, are a way to engage in _µT_m-logically-valued ratiocination, one way to handle non-self-identical numbers, to diminish the thing, to think in form of the content of the form, rather than merely the content of the form, for the tropes themselves have their logical-value order-types. No less than the historiographer (as distinct from the historian) experiences interior historiophoty as heshe [presentism}ingly recreates in hisher own mind the event-patterns that heshe studies, so, I imagine, must have the oral-history-informed naked-eye astronomographer of yore -- and, raised to the highest levels, this would take on the synaesthetic dimensions of interior Musculpt as mathematical notation, to include giving a “hearing” to the music of the spheres. Yet, scholars, in interpreting archaic evidence, have employed ₁T₂-valued logic and non-numerological notions of numerical meaning as interpretive filters. The large numbers they have encountered have not been viewed as denoting non-self-identical numbers somehow akin to Gödel-numbered Gödel numbers (nor has it been seriously entertained that the seed idea for arriving at the method of obtaining a Gödel number had its origins in numerology). This may be an undersight, as there is evidence that at least one pre-Colombian language, Aymara, is based upon a 3-valued logic, and that the Inca had an active -- not a reference-frame-type -- notion of time. As I argued to William Sullivan in 1997, the Inca, from their own perspective, may have won their “War Against Time”. Sullivan's dating method of literally turning the star-clock back in a stardome-planetarium was a partial recreation of orally-transmitted evoked-astrohistoriophoty (in the original, surely involving, in one sensory dimension, a [stacked?] collection of Takemitsuesque Asterism [s]). Oneiric time -- coherent dreamtime -- as lived historiography is history-for-itself; whereas, the historian's history is history quantum-measured, the only way its measure can be had, for the decoherent hyletic/psychetic data of history cannot exist without dissensusing historians to observe it, and we are all historians of one or another kind. Doubters might contemplate implications of “Off the clock: Scientists create cloaking device that 'hides' whole events -- making time itself disappear“, Rob Waugh, The Daily Mail, 5 January 2012. Interesting to consider that this article reports on work done at Cornell, where, during the 1970s, Cornell professor Douglas A. Paine's work on “temporal curl” at tornadogenesis was not adequately received. Those who look at the details of Paine's account of first-, second-, and third-order temporal curl at complex/hypercomplex angular-momentum cascade in tornadogenesis will see an uncanny resemblance to the physics of “split-time lenses” (see our 1977 paper entitled, “Toward a General Theory of Process”, particularly the appendix; most of Paine's technical papers on cascade-theory physics of, and, with Michael L. Kaplan, USAF-NASA multiscale numerical computer modeling of, tornadogenesis went unpublished beyond the Severe Local Storms Conferences preprint stage, and associated occasional fistfight at back of the room). Which is not to mention Dirac “crossover time” -- something Paine looked at closely during the mid-1970s when he noticed a correspondence between the two ideas (relevance of this is mentioned in our novel, The Moon of Hoa Binh, 1994). For a particularly evocative recent account, see: “Dimensional crossover in topological matter: Evolution of the multiple Dirac point in the layered system to the flat band on the surface”, T. T. Heikkila and G. E. Volovik, JETP Letters, 93:2, pp. 59-65, 2011. Reproducing the abstract:

We consider the dimensional crossover in topological matter, which involves the transformation of different types of topologically protected zeros in the fermionic spectrum. In the considered case, the multiple Dirac (Fermi) point in quasi 2-dimensional system evolves into the flat band on the surface of the 3-dimensional system when the number of atomic layers increases. This is accompanied by formation of the spiral nodal lines in the bulk. We also discuss the topological quantum phase transition at which the surface flat band shrinks and changes its chirality, while the nodal spiral changes its helicity.

That this has to do with momentum-space vortex loops (Fermi surface) in superfluids and superconductors is not incidental to content of our paper of 1978, entitled “The Discovery of a Superconductant Exchange of Hydrothermodynamic Properties Associated with a Limited Domain of the Atmosphere”. In order to credit the analogy, what is required is to posit that universal physical constants (like the speed of light) are m-valued relative to laminated spacetime and defects of real-numbered points (i.e., with the requisite respect given to “the multiple Dirac [Fermi] point”) about which temporal curl self-organizes. The assertion Paine and I used between ourselves from the late-'70s, as a private evocation (reproduced in the novel of Nha Trang and I), was: “The Penrose twistor is quantization of temporal curl!” At that memetime, this exclamation more simply voiced an “intuition”, because I could not penetrate the technical twistor literature; only as more popular accounts later appeared was I aided to gain some access and thus some confidence in this assertion. Yes, responding to an e-mailed criticism received somememetime ago, I do, indeed, make modifications to these “journal entries” as improved Platonic recall by a more-and-more aging and less-and-less competent mind transpires -- but I am writing this in real memetime, pushing paint around on the canvass, so to speak, precisely just so those few following in detail, if they so wish, can observe the process as I directly/ontically experience it (translated as best I can into words). I've never put much credence in the finished scientific paper. My interest has always been in what came before the formalized paper, where/when the ideas of real importance were received, but have only rarely been recorded for posterity.

What I advocate on this website, a seed idea and never claimed to be more, would be very far, indeed, from a p2p-Bitcoin or an e-gold (for an excellent study of the current regime, see: “Digital Currency Systems: Emerging B2B e-Commerce Alternative During Monetary Crisis in the United States”, Constance J. Wells, Aspen University MS thesis, 8 February 2011), and private currencies would not necessarily be involved, nor would m-logically-valued LETS be negative-interest “free-money” in the Silvio Gesell sense, or any other sense (note that what Keynes in this last-linked brief excursus deems sound in Gesell's idea, but incomplete, is expanded to _µT_m-logically-valued in the concept I advocate, and that this expansion is directly related to the inadequacy of Keynes' own proposed bancor and clearing union, as _µT_m allows incorporation of externalities to market processing via vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”: Keynes could have been aware of the import of Lukasiewicz by 1944; but we cannot blame him, for Friedman was not thus aware in 1999 when I approached him on this subject). Moreover, even trial parallel issuance with existing currencies (to assess the degree to which m-logically-valued LETS would be unlike existing flat or backed parallel currencies, see: “An Overview of Parallel, Local and Community Currency Systems”, Stephen DeMeulenaere, 1998), beginning at the local level, would be deep into the preparations curve and related to existing institutions of local governance. Indeed, implementation from below could only transpire by permission from above -- otherwise, the required information could not be compiled, processed, and gamed on the electronic commons. And, when the whole currency phase transition had been completed over a considerable period, existing currencies would still exist as members of the resultant nesting foam, if in modified form. As is always the case, the tendency to over-compensate -- by excessive back-reaction upon the metric -- currently prevails: the financial instruments at fault in the current financial-monetary crisis were responses to quantum-based-technology infusions -- responses malformed by regressed psychological drive-activation in the complex of factors motivating their innovation. Nonetheless, the quantum-based technologies are not going to be removed from the scene, and nothing is to be gained by throwing out the baby with the bath water: what is required is to properly distinguish between the two. We can note that as interesting as is Joel Kurtzman's book, The Death of Money: How the Electronic Economy has Destabilized the World's Markets and Created Financial Chaos (Simon & Schuster, 1993), still, no address to the effects of the quantum properties of the electronic technologies employed is attempted -- and even the best of reviews altogether fails to demonstrate understanding of the impacts which back-reaction against quantum non-simple identity has had (see, for a particularly focused instance: “The Death of Money -- Electronic Money”, Franz Hoermann, Econosophy, 9 April 2011). The ₁T₂-value multiplication which the bundling of bundled bundles of financial derivatives engages in is directly a consequence of the dissimulation of Schrödinger's wave-function as representing probability amplitudes of externally-dimensioned, identity-opaque, binary-logical states, rather than understood as internally-dimensioned, skew-parallel, _µT_m-logically-valued, identity-transparent relative-states. Keynes was no Complete Quantum e-Economist, but those dictating to White at Bretton Woods were even less so, for, as “factor 2” signifies (see, “Four Factors Which Drive Globalization”, Michael Rowbotham, author of Goodbye America: Globalization, debt and the dollar empire, J. Carpenter, 2000), in rejecting Keynes' International Clearing Union, the U.S., not only formalized its unwillingness to allow trade and account balancing, but, according to my understanding, also concretized its strong embrace of a dissembled Schrödinger.

Here is an example on the nation-state scale level (see: “Greece to sell 'bonds backed by state property'”, AFP, 7 January 2012) of one of the many ways in which an order of logical-value of a given _µT_m-valued LETS currency at the local scale level could be backed (for one perspective on what could be viewed as a related property issue in the U.S., see: “Occupy the Neighborhood: How Counties Can Use Land Banks and Eminent Domain”, Ellen Hodgson Brown, Dissident Voice, 16 January 2012). This would have been especially easy to bring up, and vastly to be preferred, in the former Soviet republics -- the place where we tried to get the beginnings of a relevant process related to this started was Cesky Krumlov, C.R. -- during the period when crash privatization qua [billionaire}ization qua [mafia}cation transpired in the former U.S.S.R. I was very early queued into the post-U.S.S.R. possibilities for m-logically-valued LETS by my analytic experience -- at SRA/MACV-J2, during 1968 -- with Viet Cong (Political) Infrastructure organizational phase transitions, particularly as focused upon Tran Bach Dang, as I have credited, which played a major role in helping me codify the ideas advocated on this website (I realize how this statement will be categorically pigeonholed by those actually uninformed, who think themselves well-informed, but accuracy in reportorial work is the only way to go, if what is required is ever to be accomplished; moreover, the mandate granted has been to follow the Ariadne thread wherever it may go: one does not voluntarily violate such a mandate, without cutting the thread). What actually went down in post-U.S.S.R. was especially tragic, given the origins and where Lukasiewicz logics have been most developed (note, for instance, authorial origins of the above-linked JETP Letters paper on Dirac “crossover time”, a time concept more fully to be comprehended when Schrodinger's wave-function is interpreted under Lukasiewicz logics). Subsequent to that U.S.S.R.-collapse period, I used to think Japan was best equipped, by cultural set and techno-mastery, to pioneer this (an overture of sorts was even made to Pioneer Corporation during 1993, earlier via good offices of Tsukuba University, later to SoftBank), but I now think Singapore, an advanced city state, is presently most strategically “located” for the task. I speak of application locations because (1), to my understanding, self-organizing systems are multiscale systems, not 1-scale systems (local or global only), and, hence, e-currencies brought up nonlocally would, in due course, likely inculcate and/or reinforce many of the problems associated with globalization, and (2), contrary to the perspectives put forth by The Austrian School, I believe markets employing ₁T₂-logical currencies can attain levels of self-organizational competency inadequate to processes put in motion by quantum-based technology infusions, and (3) that the environmental externalities which need to be internalized to market processing have local and nesting-foam components which can only be fine-grain tagged to _µT_m-valued currencies via processes of governance/decision-making across the full scale-level nest, incorporating, for instance, processes of urban and regional m-scenarios strategic planning of resource utilization (speaking here of the planning of internalization and tagging and incorporation, not of the organization of the utilization itself, which the _µT_m-valued market, as it progressively elaborated, would more and more competently self-organize). The LETS-currency m-values, fine-grain tagged to locally-determined and locally-gamed indicators and ultimately to be _µT_m-processed, could, under an appropriate order of logical-value for this type of backing arrangement, partition property-backing categories as to their progressively more accurately estimated vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock” available within the changing (by continuous computer gaming on the e-commons) fractal e-boundaries (an application for self-forming and self-healing wireless mesh networks, IMHO to be preceded-by/in-tandem-with increased research into selectivity properties of frequency-response-window characteristics of pi-electron gas core dynamics of DNA) of the involved local (optimum) currency area, thus more and more sensitively incorporating to market incentive/sanction processes one class (say, land-uses) of locally-identified “environmental externalities” (meaning: extrasystemic factors, an expansion of the technical definition of the word “externalities”; much of my language use is to be understood in this modifying-fashion). I am describing here, on a seed-idea level of elaboration, one aspect of a given m-logically-valued LETS currency at the fully elaborated stage of implementation, a stage that would take a considerable period to reach -- and much trial-and-error discovery at the local level, and subsequently on embedding levels of the currency nesting foam, and ultimately mapped as a quantum-composite to a “clearing union” MVRS (Lukasiewicz-Hilbert reference space incorporating Gödel-numbering of Gödel numbers). Much of the technology required to accomplish this (for examples, see “The Ten Most Anticipated Bitcoin Projects for 2012” posted at The Bitcoin Trader and The Monetary Future, two excellent sources of information on e-currencies, and the Cyclos software package; quoting the advert blurb

Cyclos is used for mutual credit systems like LETS, Barter systems, administration of Micro credits, Time banks and backed currency systems such as a C3 (consumer and commerce circuit). Cyclos just started to be used as a back-end for mobile banking services in Africa, and various Universities are studying the possibility to use Cyclos as a campus payment system.

as regards ₁T₂-logical currencies) has already been developed, or is being so, but most of which is currently used for less edifying purposes (conversion-disorder displaced and projected to, primarily, what is to become space-based robotic/nano omniscient-surveillance warfare: level of intensity and degree of elaboration of the involved symptomatic expressions are orders of magnitude greater than were the very same basic pathogenetic diagnostic factors in run up to and during WWII, such that none of us, including Hollywood horror prefigurators, can even begin to imagine what this cuspover will be like). And the state of the human organism is far, far worse than it was in Goethe's memetimes, when he said (as attributed by Jim Quinn on The Burning Platform, “2012: The Year of Living Dangerously”, 8 January 2012):

We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds, our planet is the mental institution of the universe.

To get a sense of the differentials involved, compare how Cyclos was produced with how drone tech was produced (undoubtedly, by now, PDAed to shoulder-launched minidrones capable of carrying tactical-nanonukeswarm-deploying projectiles). Trouble is, O so few credit any etiological connection whatsoever -- let alone the swarm thereof -- between the pathologies of suppression in higher pure maths of the 19th century and that suppression's regressed epiphenomenologies: WWs 1-thru-3. What I think of the Greatest GI Generation is that it was that corpus of flailed minds which sustained the greatest degree of horizontal mental cleavage until then experienced by humankind. That we presently are soaring past that previous mindhold is indicated by the level of omnipresence of traffic-light-mounted VDO-observation-cams being achieved as a collective-unconscious compensatory-abreaction conversion-disorder displacement-measure of the utter lack of self-observation engaged in by discrete elements of the population corpus. As regards the statement that none of us “can even begin to imagine what this cuspover will be like”, MISH's use of the word “horrorific” in the following quotation veils the experiential dimension (see his excellent short succinct account of that particular “big issue” known as population growth in “Population: The Elephant in the Room; Peak Oil Implications on Population Growth; What Level of Human Population is Sustainable?”, Mike Shedlock, Global Economic Trend Analysis, 10 January 2012):

The human cost of such an involuntary population rebalancing is, of course, horrific. Based on this model we would experience an average excess death rate of 100 million per year every year for the next 75 years to achieve our target population of one billion by 2082. The peak excess death rate would happen in about 20 years, and would be about 200 million that year. To put this in perspective, WWII caused an excess death rate of only 10 million per year for only six years.

Yet, apparently (see the above-provided The Daily Mail link to Waugh's article), the primary technological applications focus of the scientists working on “split-time lenses” is proprietary securitization of military, corporate, and one-percent communications. I find much discussion as to how a PW1 could/will come to be; I find little, and absolutely nothing plausible, as to how a PW1 could/will be avoided. IMHO, the best way to maximize the possibility to de-populate by processes of natural attrition, while gaining memetime for attempts to adequately address the other “big issues”, is to implement a _µT_m-valued monetary system. Then, perhaps, humanity as a whole, from its own perspective, could win its war against memetime. Otherwise, there is the Ballad of Narayama and the late-21st-century's world of Logan's Run, much to be preferred over a Soylent Green culture: self-youthanasia upon Kamurikiyama; in lieu of a photon torpedo, ubasute of the half-life fully lived.

Conflation of unit of account with store of value with medium of exchange -- as money -- is a cultural lag from bygone technological eras. A derivative cultural lag is insistence upon use of a vehicle currency, or some collection thereof, as a reserve currency. The technological wherewithal exists today whereby the unit of account can be separated from mediums of exchange and stores of value. No reserve currency whatsoever is required. Distinct vehicle currencies could be backed by diverse stores of value measured in an all-inclusive composite unit of account by which a clearing union could operate with respect to both trade and account balances. This is independent of the issue as to order of logical-value of the vehicle currencies employed (though use of a _µT_m-logically-valued quantum-composite unit of account -- in no small part by reconciling differing notions of value qua value -- would open up possibilities for a higher level of self-organizational competency). Much of the conflict on the planet today, preventing adequate approach to the “big issues” facing humanity, is derivative of attempts to maintain dimensions of this conflation.

It was only some years later, after I had become the primary professional root-pruner of large field-grown trees at a nursery -- a doer of ruto-purun-in-gu, a practitioner of what in Japanese is properly denoted nemawashi (a “going around the roots”), a word with secondary associations to preparing the “ground” by consensus building for initiation of a project -- that it suddenly dawned upon me that there had to have been some connection between this “career” choice and the early influence of a book upon my thought: Robert E. Spiller's The Cycle of American Literature (Macmillan, 1955), a book I had read in high school at the personal recommendation of one of my English teachers, a book which treats literature as an organic dynamical process. This realization was compelling, not simply by virtue of the fact I was spending ten hours a day at nemawashi, but also because I had striven to make this labor the foundation of my personal practice of meditation (by attempting to engage in inner separation and self-observation with respect to the repetitive physical activities involved). I had been taught nemawashi by octogenarian Nonkei T. Ishiyama, a university-degreed horticulturalist, bonsai expert, Japanese gardener, and nurseryman who was also a practitioner of jujutsu/judo and well informed relative to Zen aesthetics. An earlier experience had set me up for this attempt to transform a circumscribed set of physical “jerks” into a meditation “forum”: when I returned from the Viet Nam war, I had a compelling compensatory need to learn how to do something constructive with my hands, and the opportunity presenting itself was to become an electrician's apprentice wiring houses on a piece-work basis where income was directly related to speed of installation. This required great efficiency of physical motions. The man for whom I worked, a West Virginian born with a pocket knife in his mouth, was so fast I had trouble visually resolving his hands as he worked. “I don't give a damn how long your hair is, but when it starts getting into my eyes…” That was the sort of relationship we had. My first several months on the job involved my being yelled at on what seemed a near-continuous basis with regard to every tiny detail of how I moved, where I located my tools on my belt and in my pockets, how I held the pocket knife, the pliers, the hammer, and so on. This yelling-induction was repeated when I later came under the employ of Ishiyama-san (and simultaneously the tutelage of Toshikazu Kajiwara, a university-trained urban and regional planner turned Japanese gardener/nurseryman extraordinaire) -- only on a more subtle level, a level informed by his body-knowing expertise gleaned from decades in practice at martial arts, in this case focused upon use of the cutting spade. Given these two experiences (and prefigurations earlier assimilated at Special Forces Training Group), the glide into motion-meditation was a natural transition, as were the eventual time-warp experiences which came over the years with increasing concentration in self-observation/reflexivity. I now find these issues rekindled as I read a Chinese scholar's analysis of Spiller's horizontal-plus-vertical, two-cycle-and-roots theory of American literature as organic process: “Spilling the Cycle: Reappraising Robert E. Spiller's Cyclical Theory of American Literary History”, Shan Te-hsing, Institute of American Culture, Academia Sinica, Taipei, American Studies, XVIII, No. 4, December 1988. And here we have a January-of-2012 fascinating interactive map from The Economist, which, for me, evokes associations as to how SUBSTANCE (notice the Greek “substantialism” petticoat showing here at the hem of my thought) of The Turner Thesis of 1893/1920 -- which Spiller, beginning in the 1930s, mapped over hyletic data of American literary history -- had extended itself through the Divine Providence of Manifest Destiny to Geographic Predetermination and The Natural Right and Evangelical Grace of Uninterrupted Growth across continent and pelagic expanse until, by the 1830s, American dreadnaughts were cannonading Inchon; by the 1840s, the Port of Danang (no need to wait for the command of West-more-land); and by 1853, standing in Edo Bay to protest structural impediments, to fulfillment of Newton's Second Law of Motion, up and down Southeast and East Asian shores (whereas Abel's “Impossibility” Theorem of 1826 had, even before their provisioning was undertaken, thoroughly scuttled the Deist/Clockmaker metaphysical baseeees of these naval excursions).

In hypnopompic hypersynchrony (check out, in the first-presented graphic, the continuing march toward exteriorization of internal Musculpt-as-mathematical-notation), visually-hearing questions come down from the “anterior sky” in chromodynamic cascades of cross-modal transference by tactile-Tetris paresthesia-skin-patches of form-constants. We'll use Mozart's holomorphic method, whereby he could hear only a small portion of a polyphonal mass, and later, at his leisure, sit down and notate the whole mass. The question this memetime: What topologically protects a zero, a set of zeros? “Physics degree-zero” was once proclaimed to reside at the absolute limiting acceleration where black holes abide. Douglas A. Paine believed that “acoustic analogues to black hole computers” exist in Earth's atmosphere by virtue of the “acoustically-modified gravity-wave-mode” dynamics by which holes are punched in the tropopause boundary-surface through which ozone draw-downs occur -- analogues protected from “view” by a veiling (accomplished with renormalization by a re-scaling of the primitive equation set) of the absolute limiting acceleration and the absolute limiting time rate of change of acceleration. Are zeros topologically protected by a removal from view of the absolute limiting time rate of change of acceleration? Another way to say this is: Is Riemann's set of zeros (as exist within the Riemann zeta function as employed, for instance, in definition of the critical temperature of a Bose gas) confined to a line, if and only if the zeta function is restricted to real numbers and the complex plane? What happens to the line of zeros if the zeta function is rewritten over the hypercomplex numbers required to constellate a nesting foam of absolute limiting time rates of change of acceleration (re: m-valued universal physical constants)? Could a zero, a line of zeros become unprotected? Paine believed that in the realm of equivalent potential temperature (theta-e surfaces), atmospheric adiabatic/diabatic energy levels function in a manner analogous to those of atomic physics. He further believed, according to my understanding, that, because of Cantorian nesting, conversion between the two takes place at the absolute limiting acceleration, that non-orientability of the two occurs at the absolute limiting time rate of change of acceleration. This is like saying fermions can become bosons; bosons, fermions -- and that they can even be indistinguishable. Such changes are not real, they are imaginary and hyperimaginary -- and accomplished by second- and third-order temporal curl. The multiple Dirac point can be split and can be hyper-split -- by, according to this notion, the topological operations of the temporal curl (operations something like that performed by, we now know, “split-time lenses”). Does “crossover time” chronotopologically del-cross the identity-opaqueness of fermions with the identity-transparency of bosons -- and their air-parcel analogues in superconductant exchanges of hydrothermodynamic properties between domain structures within Earth's atmospheric spacetime nesting foam? If m-valued universal physical constants are allowed (as the neutrino seems presently to demand, and M Theory seems to be strangely attracted to), such analogues become plausible. Run the Regge calculus forwards-backwards between theta-e surface curvature configurations and Regge lattices. Treat a Regge intersection as a multiple Dirac point. Number such points with Gödel-numbered Gödel numbers. Regard one-dimensional quantum-well wires as Regge-bone fibers understood J. G. Bennett's “pencils of skew parallels”. Once Gödel-numbering of Gödel numbers is thus allowed, Regge lattices are _µT_m-valued logical-lattices over hypercomplex domains. Hopping between twisted bilayers of the acoustically-modified gravity-wave-mode undulating tornadic wall -- as dimensional crossover in topological matter? At third-order temporal curl, an ideal Fermi-Bose surface under perfect nesting conditions, i.e., mediated by the perfect Platonic polytopes of higher-order-type Brillouin zones under _µT_m-canonical fundamental domain AllBase? Are scaled values of the energy of unprotected zero-points (packets of pockets), by this and that howthus, available everywhen whereany?

By definition even, I/i have never had an experience from which I/i could predicate to selfhood OBJECTIVE self-similarity, let alone self-sameness. Moreover, _µT_mly speaking of (to use Hubert Benoit's term from Let Go!: Theory and Practice of Detachment According to Zen as translated by Zen Master Albert William Low) the “absolutely-in-so-far-as-distinct” self-attribution illusion, i.e., the mistaken existential claim that self owns body, we note that the unassisted (no VR, no exogenously introduced drugs) “body transfer 'illusion'” accompanying generative-empathetic animistic “participation mystique” is no illusion; it is conscious awareness of long-range phase-correlation in affinity space as processed by the quantum brain not contained by glutamate-etched molecular-cellular brains. The more personally a person takes hisher selves, the more introspectively inept, for a great deal of “inner counterwork” (again using a Benoit term) to neuronal etching and omnipresent programming is required to generate anything like an authentic personal dimension to experience. For all of us Lizzie's of this world, m-valued identity is solely the result of trauma, didn't y'know. Heh-heh-heh! One recipe for cooking up psychopathocracy: monetary theorists engaged in conflation of vehicle and reserve currencies, indeed, insisting upon the need for a reserve currency, doing so by conversion-disorder displacement of the self-attribution illusion -- and the affect-charge elicited by any threat to this conversion, received as an existential denial, explains why they cling so tenaciously (and why Hollywood has become obsessed with presenting hysterical [histerical much more than hersterical] treatments of quantum-non-simple identity-transparency: count how many such RXs there have been since Being John Malkovich was prescribed in 1999). My I/i can speak with conviction that its “seeing the seeing all the way back into the eye” in the walking-digging meditative practice of “pulling back in” the cathexic energy of ergotropic drive-activation, associated with identification/attachment with-to the object of perception/proprioception, cannot be phenomenologically reduced to contents of entoptic images, however much non-seeing-the-seeing antianimists would like to do so.

Cause-push/teleoattractor-pull is not only m-valued, but m-leveled (which m-valuedness has only to do with valuation of involved variables; _µT_m-logically-valued processing is a separate, but related, issue). Said another way: for each and every human event, not only are there multiple causes/attractors, there are multiple levels (lesser than that of ultimates upon _µT_m-canonical fundamental domain AllBase) of causation/attraction spanning the spectrum collective unconscious, personal subliminal, personal consciousness, socially-constellated collective-attention cathexes. On each of these levels, complex dynamics (e.g., conversion, displacement, projective-identification, transference, compensatory abreaction, and so on) prevail and intersect and reinforce and countervail dynamic factors of other levels (skyscraping, rather than skyspacing, being one excellent example: see, for some world history of this subject, “China Soaring Skyscrapers Latest Confirmation Of Housing Bubble, Barclays Finds”, Zero Hedge, 12 January 2012). James Turrel's skyspace may be regarded a verticalization of the horizontal identity-transparency integral to traditional Japanese residential-social habitus. Hollywood's Spanish tilting at windmills -- har-har-har! -- typically topologically dyshandles the involved nesting foams as a Vanilla Sky lucid dream-inside-a-dream-inside-a-dream-type not-being-able-to-wake-up --reemergence being like the “Normandy Invasion”. Heh-heh-heh! A Cruise-cross-Cruz cruising of Scientology? Could be. For the Alfred Jarry's of this world, to the degree Ubu Roi is realmemetime aware of the operative psychodynamic factors -- by immediate ontic cognizance of phenomenological reduction of what artist-logician Nguyen Quynh (for some of his images see here, toward the end of the piece) calls the “being of a thing” -- in speaking with a person, particularly a person carrying a heavy load of socially-conferred role attributions, to the same degree is that person not experienced as a mere [per}son: that non{per}son is psycho-ideographically Analytical-Cubism derealized m^mth memetimes over. All those “others” -- by quantum relative-state identity-transparency, by topological point-set kami-dusti swarm-of-swarms nesting-foam diagonal proof, by hologramic part-whole relations -- are, indubitably are, other selves. Socially speaking, i.e., m^mth crossed into m^mth, there is, for instance, no simple cause of the oil wars. If wormhole access and n-kills are required to establish The One, over m^mth crossed into m^mth, then, surely, one knows one simply must be memetime bound and utterly attached to projective-identification at conversion-disorder displacement, the m-verses of multiverse quantum poesy having been _µT_mly written upon internal Calabi-Yau dimensions [experience}able by, for one, synaesthetic cross-modal topological transference installed to registry and outputted to conscious awareness by Yayoi Kusama's paresthesia analogic neuro->>>-skin-patch qua inner-stop photism kami-dusti flashover (glutamatergic neuronal etching may be regarded minimally as Rootkit installation). Is preemptive opposition to nuclear proliferation the cause of oil warfare? Are the oil wars over control of remaining petroleum resources undertaken so as to insure civilian uses? Is such warfare in anticipation of, and preparation for, a space-based Planetary War One known to be inevitable by [un}virtue of population overgrowth? Have the n-kills in the n-wars back to 1961 been made so to insure that the bulk of oil transactions remain denominated in the USD, such that the New Frontier JFK-initiated QEing can continue indefinitely at larger and larger Q-levels? Buying gold to “diversify away from the dollar”? You and who else? Flash forward to 23 January 2012 and Zero Hedge: “Currency Wars -- Iran Banned From Trading Gold and Silver”. Have these n-wars been projective concretization of a collective unconscious “decision” for mass-self-immolation taken in response to population thrush? Think, for one, street deployed cancer-causing nude body scanners to heighten radiation saturation levels already high by cellular microwaving and WiFi (not nanotuned to stay between biologically-active frequency-response windows). On what level(s) is/are the agroindustrial, GMOed, green-revolution toxification of food part and parcel of this mass-self-immolation “decision”? Is oil warfare-insurgency-terrorism primarily sectarian factional infighting within The Tripartite Fertile-Crescent Religion induced by the advent of quantum logic having re-constellated pathofunctional potency of issues intensely fought over during the 1st millennium, A.D.? Father-Son-HolyGhost understood ₁T₂ly, rather than ₁T₃ly -- all the while Aymara was 3-logically-valued? Are these issues presently empowered by the existential threat-level conceivably-perceivably posed by the New Paganism parodied and ridiculed and stigmatized in Being John [M ^mal} ⁿkovich ? Is new UID biometric (unique identification) tech for domestic security, in anticipation of cashlessness (see, for example: “Cashless Society: India Implements First Biometric ID Program for all of its 1.2 Billion Residents”, Brandon Turbeville, InfoWars, 12 January 2012), undertaken in an attempt to purge the New Paganism's collective unconscious and personal subliminal embrace of bodymod-signified animistic-quantum relative-state identity-transparency? Is insistence upon nazification of purified simple-identity psychoprep for introduction of human repets? Is such IDing a readying-for, across all levels of causation/attraction, a Period of Purges (out of the myriad historical examples to choose from, consider the preparations necessary to the Bodo League massacre)? How could ₁T₂-logically-valued “decision sciences” fixated upon single-valued variables, and attempting to impose a 1-leveled global system, bring much of positive consequence to prospective attempts to adequately meet demands of the coming planetary cuspover?

Maybe I haven't been clear on this: I am not a “bring it on” sort of guy with regard to the financial-monetary crisis, or any other crisis. Rapid flipovers between prison school and Summerhill are hard transitions -- frequently too hard. Are sovereign defaults, for instance, correlated with onset of warfare? Surely not in the post-WWI period. Apparently not in the pre-WWI period. For a focused study of this, see: “Enforcement by Gunboats”, Michael Tomz, October 2006. Quoting the text:

In summary, debt default may be correlated with military action, but it is surprisingly difficult to find cases in which default triggered military action or in which the threat, show, or use of force resolved a default. Nearly all the cases in Table 7.4 arose from other grievances, which happened to coincide with debt default. The statistical association between default and military intervention appears mostly spurious.

Personally, I'm not much for one-to-one statistical and probabilistic forecasting, but, that said, I'd be greatly interested in m-valued (many-to-many and many-to-one and one-to-many) statistical correlative studies of default, military action, and “other grievances”. Of importance to the involved functions, and nests thereof, would be the distinction between simple-antecedent-consequent immediate onset and concatenated-consequent removed onset. I'd also be interested in correlations, if any, between, say, the post-WWI global use of Keynesian and monetarist policies and absence of onset of warfare at this or that sovereign default. I'd also be interested in where on the global oil production curve the correlative studies of sovereign default and onset of warfare fell -- and, say, where on the curve of scientific-discovery-driven collapse of the metaphysical foundations of the Cartesian-Newtonian Weltanschauung. What I am for is buying as much memetime as possible, while real fundamentals are actually reworked. The saved memetime I speak of here is that since Silent Spring, since the New Frontier generalization of the Containment Policy to the Third World and associated peaking of U.S. oil production, since Reaganomics globalization-extensions of that generalization, since Dayton Accords politicization of those globalization-extensions of that generalization, since color-revolutionization of that politicization of those globalization-extensions of that generalization, since the subsequent GWOT-permanentization-planetarization of all this as a clash of civilizations tracking upon the strange attractor, PW1. Trouble is, a reworking of fundamentals isn't being done -- only pretenses thereto. Whattsamatter you? Toot-sweet! Hubba-hubba! Lam ngay di! Seeking a psych-sanctuary? Call that exercise of freewill? Gettouttahere. Gettonwithit. Di di mau! New Keynesianism-monetarism has been used the world over as a “The lady doth protest too much, methinks” The System Works! exclamatory insistence upon retaining institutionalization of the long-dead Cartesian-Newtonian Weltanschauung, rather than as a memetime purchaser permitting a fundamental transform into institutions analogically designed in correlation to contemporary understanding of the nature of Nature and the principles underlying the quantum-based technologies ever increasingly assimilated. Indeed and however, over the last several decades, at least, one has had to grant much only weakly warranted in order to continue to participate, even to read-in -- such as, that there has been an authentic human intent to solve problems related to the “big issues”. Bulk of evidence has suggested otherwise -- and not only with regard to U.S. empire builders. Not much of a foundation for engagement.

On the first day, in the day -- my days -- Dean Griffith always seduced the freshman class incoming to AU-SIS with a welcoming speech. We were told that if we worked very, very hard, we could become members of that special group of persons in the Most Powerful Nation of the World who would determine… well, virtually everything of future importance on Planet Earth. Listening to this on the first morning (early-September of 1963), I knew I would never make it, never finish out -- as the vision proffered was not a vision I wished to eat. But, knowing full-well what I would be cut off from, not least the sort of woman I wished to bond -- and a specific woman I had long been prepared to woo to wife -- it took me two-and-a-half years to attain the gumption required to finally and forever leave, the intent at leaving being to “get up close” so as to “really understand” what lay behind “the whole thing”, given that this “thing” was substance of my “me”, born, as I was, on Flag Day, 1945, to a USAAC bomber pilot, a “me” I wished to fully comprehend (the “fully” being, as it turned out, mere youthful exuberance). By late-1965, when I departed, I understood substance of what John Perkins (the interview is more powerful than the book) tells us about EHM (economic hit men), the Jackels, and so on. In Washington, at my memetime, this was easy to see: for instance, several people I knew were recruited as quasi-EHM via AIESEC, and Aid as Imperialism (yet to be written by Teresa Haytera) was well understood amongst AU-SIS students -- even if personal reactions to that understanding varied over a spectrum. So, considerable doubt has to be raised as to Perkins' overly generous contention that non-EHM members of the critical institutions-corporations did not understand the overall strategy. He is simply being nice, as a way of servicing his Early-America-ideals -- as he idealizes them -- allegiances. Advocacy of the virtues of compassion, however virtuous, and however it may assuage Perkins' sense of personal guilt, directs attention away from the efforts actually required to re-create fundamentals (the degree to which such re-creation is utterly absent on a planet-wide basis is well demonstrated in “Capitalism in crisis: Perilous path to prosperity”, David Pilling, The Financial Times, 16 January 2012: hundred-and-more-year-old ideas only are mentioned by frozen minds expressing their well-etched brains), such that the “big issues” could be authentically addressed. One aspect Perkins has not addressed, which Madhi Darius Nazemroaya has recently addressed, is degovernace, pregovernance, and regovernance by transitional-authority constitution re-writing (see: “Post-War Constitutions: Privatization and Empire-Building”, Eurasia: Revista di Studi Geopolitici, 23:8, May/August 2011, pp. 45-52, as posted to Global Research, 15 January 2012). Quoting the beginning of the article:

The geography of a nation is also fixed in its national constitution, such as the state's definitions of its own national and internal borders. Taking this observation one step further, it has to be said that constitutions can also be utilized and redefined to meet specific geo-political objectives.

The article does not go on to address the very idea of “the geography of a nation” (as does Thongchai Winichakul's Siam Mapped: A History of the Geo-Body of a Nation, U. of Hawaii, 1994) or the fundamental notion as to what “national and internal borders” must be -- mathematically and monetarily speaking -- something the Viet Cong (Political) Infrastructure did address, by age-old animistic impress and low-tech innovation, in their approach to degovernance, pregovernance, and regovernance. Moreover, Nazemroaya does not question utility, to a world increasingly cued by ever-greater quantum-based technology infusions, of relatively fixed and single-valued constitutionally-specified prescriptions -- whosoever writes, or re-writes, the constitution. Fixedness of specifications notated by the 3Cs -- charters, constitutions, contracts -- may be counterproductive in articulation space, the parameters of which are largely being set by technologies giving “voice” to quantum non-simple identity-transparency. Again, Nazemroaya's observations illustrate a case of missing re-fundamentals (e.g., fractal e-boundaries, or their low-tech equivalent). Let it be noted that, as a contrary case, Vietnamese, after winning their 30-year war, developed their own legal framework on basis of their own cognizance, as witnessed by, for instance, Sesto E. Vecchi -- even if “lessons learned”, by, say, a Tran Bach Dang, were not well-embodied thereby. Imposed post-war constitutions re-written by victors may hold so long as the near abroad and the global environment remain relatively stable; but as such stability is lost, say in transit to a PW1, and crisis mode sets it, collective commitment to the victor's prescriptions may suddenly disappear, and the alliances based thereupon, vaporize.

Mish has recently provided us with an excellent set of reflections on utility of economic indicators as they currently exist and are employed (see: “Cherry Picking Timeframes on Alleged Leading Indicators…”, Mike Shedlock, Global Economic Trend Analysis, 17 January 2012). The sort of analysis Mish (and John Hussman, as cited) engages in here would need to be greatly expanded and computer-gamed on the electronic commons if full-spectrum (not only economic) local indicators were to be discovered, gamed, consensuated, and applied within an m-logically-valued LETS nesting-foam context. The e-commons computer gaming of m-scenarios strategic planning required to tag local indicators to LETS currencies -- a “human-chess” gaming-not-voting which could only be carried out beginning at the local level, and, subsequently, within appropriate levels, would not only reduce magnitude of the representation/decision-need devolving to the political process, but also strongly militate against centralization of e-processing/interfaces, such as those evolving under auspices of national and multinational election-software providers (see, for example: “SCYTL Acquires SOE Software, Becoming the Leading Election Software Provider”, WSJ MarketWatch, 19 January 2012, and comments thereupon by Bev Harris). What are the economic indicators Mish analyzes indicative of, what, ultimately, do all these indicators lead or lag or vaguely correlate to? The prospect of economic growth, stagnation, contraction -- the primary factor, as the market qua market is currently conceived and constituted, responsible for self-organization and its various malfunctions. Who uses these indicators, and what are they used for? Economic actors, across the spectrum micro to macro, use these indicators as action directives for, according to their various mandates, taking advantage of (such as speculation, investment, lending), or for attempting to modulate-regulate this or that growth-related parameter, as conceived by econometric modeling of various sorts. Growth is the ultimate indicator to which all these derivative indicators devolve, and the goal-attractor thus indicated is self-organization. But self-organization for what? Welfare. Welfare of whom, or, more generally, of what? If the what and/or the whom of welfare were to change, then the whole subtending indicator-structure would also have to change -- and more, fundamentally, understanding of how self-organization self-organizes, and consequently what the market qua market is and can be. What factors could necessitate a change in the prevailing notion as to the what and whom of welfare? An energy crisis coupled to a population-overgrowth crisis coupled to an environmental-atmospheric crisis coupled to… the list here is long, as we know. And the mega-crisis all these lesser crises constellate is so far beyond merely staggering (even if Mish's reflections on oil and population, as quoted-linked above, are orders of magnitude overwrought, and in the next decade there were a fundamental energy breakthrough involving something like zero-point energy and hydrogen and buying memetime with wind-type sources, still the mega-crisis would remain far more than merely staggering) that there can be no informed controversy as to the need for some sort of change in the operative notion of welfare (as currently understood, easily mistaken for warfare). The present constitution of market qua market is intrinsically a plan, the exercise of a preference function, if not explicitly so -- a plan to exploit nature so as to maximize growth by a furthering of self-organization in service to the what and whom of welfare. Elements of this plan were, largely subliminally, over considerable memetime, internalized to market processes and variables involved in exercise of those processes. How could change of market-plan be undertaken? Has anyone brought expertise to this precise question, or to questions related to this question? Yes. Adolph Lowe (see: “In memoriam: Adolph Lowe, 1893-1995 -- economist”, Will Lissner, American Journal of Economics and Sociology, January 1996: Lowe's unfortunately named “internal colonization” prefigured the notion of LETS nesting foams and “Occupy the neighborhood!”). In analyzing the Cartesian-Newtonian foundations of modern economics (in On Economic Knowledge, 1965), Lowe did not address this precise question, but he did address questions related to this question -- as we attempted to point out in our novel, The Moon of Hoa Binh, and, subsequently, in my brief article of 1996, entitled: “Can Planning be a Coherent Free Market Behavior?”.

Copyright lawyer, Steven T. Shelton, says, “This is just the beginning”, as regards SOPA shutdowns and arrests (see: “Popular file-sharing website Megaupload shut down”, Matthew Barakat, AP/USAToday, 19 January 2012: Down with clouds, up with tropopauses!). No, this is not the beginning; this is very near the end; place it on a memetime par to planetary cuspover with Kristallnacht to its small-scale cuspover: already, probably near a billion excess deaths have been associated with what is presently codified as Stop Online Piracy Act. The use of superposed quantum phases to make faster binary switches is an earlier version of SOPA. The “multiple universes hypothesis” is an earlier version of SOPA. The subjection of Everett's “relative-state interpretation of quantum mechanics” to the vonNeumann formalism, and schizophenogenic “loss of time” between branches of the universal wave-function, at insistence of Wheeler-Bohr was an earlier version of SOPA (a kind of use of “time-lenses” to conceal presence of 3-fold temporal curl). Fuzzing-out over identity properties of hologramic information was an earlier version of SOPA. Nazi insistence upon implementing purified simple-identity, easily devolved to simple-ownability, was an earlier version of SOPA. Einstein's short-circuit over fundamentals of quantum mechanics was an earlier version of SOPA. The “probability amplitude interpretation” of Schrödinger's wave-function, the Witch Bull of the 20th century, was an earlier version of SOPA. Preference for non-Abelian groups is an earlier version of SOPA. Preference for non-Cantorian set theory is an earlier version of SOPA. Interpretation of Lukasiewicz logics to the real-number-line interval 0,1 is an earlier version of SOPA. Insistence that truth-value and logical necessity must be the fundaments of logic is an earlier version of SOPA. T. S. Eliot's initial Rx of the “half-object” was an earlier version of SOPA. Bertrand Russell's “logical atomism” was an earlier version of SOPA. Formal definition of dementia praecox and the various types of dissociative personality disorder was an earlier version of SOPA. Rejections of The Axiom of Choice were earlier versions of SOPA. Collective consternation at Cantor's diagonal proof was an earlier version of SOPA. Arbitrary cuts made in the Riemann sphere were an earlier version of SOPA. Subjection of the multivalue to the Riemann surface was an earlier version of SOPA. Designation of Abel's existence proof for transalgebras as an Impossibility Theorem was an earlier version of SOPA. The cumulative excess deaths of two centuries were consequences of the earlier versions of SOPA. SOPA is enforcement of the collective-unconscious mass-suicide pact by which the non-simple, relative-state identity-transparency carried by quantum-based technologies is to remain dressed in the Cartesian-Newtonian clothes of patent law, thus contained, thus isolated, thus quarantined so as to Stop Online contagion, participation mystique, pagan animism as extrojected and concretized to p2p due to its its conscious awareness having been glutamatergically pruned from molecular-cellular brains -- no matter how many more billion human and other excess deaths at cuspover this suppression of irrevocable properties of the fundamental constituents of nature, and their scaled equivalents under m-valued universal physical constants, may fat-tail entail. All this death and destruction, all this Nacht-und-Nebel Kulturfestival, solely because the glutamate-etched brain does not have the cognitive capacity to deal with nature's non-simple ownability -- which can only be monetarily handled by m-logically-valued LETS nesting foams, modern versions of which cannot come into being absent an unfettered internet.

Okay, since you insist, a little explication -- despite the reserve one is conditioned to cultivate. I had, as an employee of Fia, Inc., Kyoto, what would commonly be regarded a “schizophrenic break” upon my first viewing -- instant onset as I surveyed the prints upon the printer's walls where they had been hung for our benefit -- of Joe Goode's “Tornado Series” of aqua-tint etchings, this viewing, as I later learned, occurring in the same memetimeframe as one of the worst tornado outbreaks in U.S. history. The subjective meditative “algorithms” I, that night, employed to exit that “break” set off the smoke-alarm system in the hotel in which we were staying, smoke detectors dropping out of the ceiling on their (well)wires in mimic to tornado behaviors -- and freequed-out (in this context, freeCADed) everybody in the immediate surround of the penthouse of the Shangri-La Santa Monica. Prior to the “exit” being fully accomplished, I was worried as to integrity of the electrical system of the aircraft upon which we were to carry the prints in return to Japan. After the exit was completed, I knew there would be no problem. That's it. Nothing more. Perfectly understandable -- from my point of view, given my personal history with the study of tornadogenesis. Retrospectively, I knew that the subliminal trigger factor for the “break” I had sustained was not so much the synchronicity of the physical tornado outbreak, as the enormous repository of collective psychological regression Joe Goode had somehow been able to assimilate to his long-worked identity-transparent “looking-through”-selfhood, to comprehend on some level, and to deposit to his prints -- a kind of Jungian alchemy allowing him to foresee/internalize, on the psychomotor level, essential features of not-yet-consensuated post-quantum-relativity Weltanschauung (one downside prefiguration being the “Uberveillance” looking-through carried out by the GPS nanochip inserted with your last, next, next-plus-one… flu shot). No conceptuality about this: all in feeling-space, all in the tropological metareference by which high-art codifies the reality-in-birth-canal. I also knew, at that memetime, that the skyspace of James Turell -- another artist which Fia, Inc., in the person of Naomi Togashi, had enticed into making a limited edition of prints -- was an antidote to the collective regression Joe Goode had assimilated, codified, and placed in the public domain for all to see.

Where do the memetime-referenced Fractal Adaptive Cycles in Natural and Human Systems come from -- only the fractal geometries of nature and cellular-molecular-atomic human brain? What about quantum-brain pregeometry, the wave-effected _µT_m-nesting-foams of Lukasiewiczian logical-value order-types, Karpenko-functored and Gödel numbered with Gödel-numbered Gödel numbers, as actively demerged by the topological operations of 3-fold temporal curl? Are not Bohmian-implicate pregeometric factors essential quantum-measurement subliminals to the endogenous Prechter mood determinants, Heisenberg-matrix crossed into the “outside driving forces” (natural events/conditions/constraints, not human acts and their derivatives: xp - px = i times bar-h, the simplest case “speaking” coherently as a harmonic oscillator, e.g., the canonical equation for our exchange model of pi-electron gas core dynamics of DNA, including intraneuronal and intraperineural DNA), responsible for the Elliot waves expressing market reflexivities? Cubismly diagonalize this Hamiltonian matrix, then find its appropriate differential equation! One basis for Vir-Fut Q-Pro? If all the modeling-attention goes only to the memetime-reference dimension of demergence (understood by Plotinus in Enneads as memetime independent, like Schrödinger's initial wave equation, not by Hegel with “Wesen ist was gewesen ist”, or “Nature is what has been”, and not with Existentialism's “existence precedes essence”), is not that sufficient explanation as to why there is no impulse to reconsider what qua what the finger-of-God/magic-hand blackbox model of market autopoiesis actually is, such that market determining conditions could be reconstituted by employment of fractal e-boundaries upon which backed and externality-tagged Lukasiewiczian LETS e-monetary-unit nesting-foams could be defined so as to make possible higher levels of market self-organizational competency? For those who feel that this would be merely to add more complexity, when the changes required are in the opposite direction, I would observe that Tainter's “peer polity competition”-driven complexity is not of the same sort (indeed, is opposite thereto) as the additional complexity introduced by infusions of quantum-based technologies carrying psychological, social, political, and economic echoes of non-simple identity, nonlocality, and so on, which require commensurate and corresponding shifts in character of framework determining conditions (e.g., in respect to logical-value order-type of monetary exchange units employed) if internal system state is to maintain resilience in face of these infusions. In this context, it is also useful to note that nested-cycle synchronization, over-correlation, and the like, is not what is meant by the terms “identity-transparency” and “relative-state”. If social mood leads the stock market, and the stock market is a leading indicator of the real economy, as Prechter argues, then unending actual growth is not as essential to the organization of economic activity as we have thought: implicate factors may be most important in this regard, such that limits to growth do not necessarily mean collapse of organization, were framework determining conditions adequately adapted.

Enculturated and socialized glutamatergically-etched single-valued ₁T₂-logic (of only two available, one permitted) taken as the whole of logic is, itself, a fallacy of exhaustive hypotheses -- applied socially as the legalism falsum in uno, falsum in omnibus, and as a framework determining condition of economic exchange processes as singly-logically-valued currencies, prices, wages. Is it any wonder the human interface with nature has gone postal, bananas, ballistic, nuclear?

If the EU were a monetary union, a fiscal union, a political union, and successful, would that be good for the planet? Absolutely not. Consider that the current ECB is only a nascent Fed, and think what it could do were it to become a full-blown Fed (for some relevant elucidation, see: “Interactive Visual History Of Financial Crises Since 1810 -- Note Where The Fed Arrives”, Zero Hedge, 22 January 2012). In order to authentically approach dealing with the “big issues”, the hard problems facing humanity in its interface with its own magnitude, quantum-based technologies, the resource base, the biosphere, the atmosphere, the magnetosphere… an ordered structural disaggregation is one functional prerequisite. Disaggregation by mob/gang/terrorist action, by insurgent intervention, by revolutionary violence, by a PW1 would not be an ordered phase transition -- and the outcome achieved would be reflected in the form(s) of process employed, none of these forms addressing any of the “big issues” at issue. The only way to disaggregate such that the disaggregation so addresses is by employment of the quantum properties of the quantum-based technologies being assimilated -- rather than suppressing those properties. One manner by which that could be done is by implementation of fractal e-boundaries -- initially as overlay upon existing geopolitical boundaries -- used in definition of m-logically-valued LETS e-currency nesting foams.

The molecular biology of the gene is largely conceived on principles of spatial ordering. Double helix, nucleotide pairs, spatial ordering of the pairs into codons, spatial ordering of codons into codon groups, and so on. A mutation is largely understood on a billiard-ball model. Particles impinge and knock something out of place, the somethings involved including up to chromosomes translocated. This notion of the mechanism of mutation explains why, until recently, it was assumed that short-term high-dose exposures to ionizing radiation would be equally or more carcinogenic than long-term low-dose exposures. This assumption is no longer supported by research (see, for an excellent presentation, especially as to likely consequences of Fukushima: “Cancer Risk to Young Children Near Fukushima Daiichi Underestimated”, Arnie Gundersen and Ian Goddard, Fairwinds Associates, 19 January 2012). Are additional cancers from long-term low-dose exposures simply a matter of more mutations accumulated over a longer period of exposure, mutations sustained on the billiard-ball model -- or is there something more fundamental involved? Could there be mechanisms of mutation from long-term low-dose exposures, not active in short-term high-dose exposures? Gaining insight as to these mechanisms, if they exist, may be assisted by consideration of a DNA radiation exchange model which is based upon temporal ordering, not spatial ordering (see: “A Dynamical Theory Describing Superconductant DNA”, Douglas A. Paine and William L. Pensinger, International Journal of Quantum Chemistry, XV, 1979, pp. 333-341; when a public lecture on this model was delivered at Tsukuba University in 1990, this “Illustrated Terminology Glossary” was available to interested parties, trouble was, there were no parties sufficiently interested).

Was too! the French national government was too! -- once was into local monetary units. Don't forget the post-WWII Saar franken. Heh-heh-heh! Look at the history of this. In July of 1944, there was the Bretton Woods Conference, wherein FDR's and Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau's arbitrary prescriptions were successfully imposed by Harry Dexter White as recounted by Raymond Mikesell, White's assistant. During September of 1944, there was the Second Quebec Conference, wherein the Morgenthau Plan for the partitioning/deindustrializing of Germany, and the turning of her into an agricultural subsistence state, was formalized. Protectorates in Saar and the Ruhr, as well as an international zone running all the way from Saar to Denmark, were parts of this plan. From mid-1945 to mid-1946, the Bakker-Schut Plan for Dutch annexation was pulled together, an annexation to have run from Aachen to Emden. These two plans fell aside as the Marshall Plan came on. But, beginning in 1947, the French did “protect” Saar and its coal. And, beginning in 1949, the International Authority for the Ruhr “protected” German capacity for steel production. This was a partial implementation of the Monnet Plan, adopted by de Gaulle approximately 9 months after VE Day. Early evolution of the Cold War canned Morgenthau's plan to permanently defang Germany, no less than Monnet's plan to permanently grant France industrial dominance of Western Europe: a policy orientation began to emerge based on the idea that federation was the best way to protect Western Europe from both a resurgent Germany and the Soviet Union. By 1952, this policy orientation yielded the European Coal and Steel Community, a revamping of the Saar-Ruhr-protectorate approach. By the mid-'50s, European integration was explicitly on the agenda of the Bilderberg meetings. And on from there to EU and euro. Military considerations drove this whole evolution, and military developments will, in all likelihood, occasion its disintegration. Collapse of the Soviet Union transpired synchronously as to drafting of the Maastricht Treaty. Compensatory abreaction? Convergence criteria derived from an econometric conception expressing a paradigm in denial of the very idea of authentic convergence (e.g., Bose-Einstein condensation). But, what was all this, really? Back to the Franco-Prussian war, 1870-'71, the first skirmish of which involved a French attack upon Saarbrucken -- and which transpired as Cantor was arriving at his proof that the set of all real numbers is uncountable and that transcendental numbers exist (published 1874), both developments having devolved from Abel's “Impossibility” Theorem, 1826 -- and, up through the first two world wars, what was ultimately at issue, and most in contention, as argued at multiple locations on this website, were threats to the simple-identity essential to integrity of the Cartesian-Newtonian Weltanschauung, and, even more importantly, the continuing institutionalization of that ever more dead worldview construct. Hugo began struggling with his Hunchback only three years after Abel produced his existence proof for transalgebras, one kind of Law of Sanctuary, arrived at on a day of Epiphany: Quasimodo is seen to swing on the bellrope of transalgebraic Heaven sweeping up his Esmeralda Anima, only later to find that the differential between low-order functions, be they criminal or kingly, is inconsequential. Transcendentals be hanged! It was not that the French were on one side, the Germans on the other, of this consciously articulated issue; rather, the European collective hysteria occasioned by suppression of this issue, and its various imports, constellated a series of dog fights where within no one consciously understood what the actual issues were, why the dogs were so intent upon killing, only rationalized the mass killings with the mechanisms involved in conversion-displacement and projective-identification at transference. Always acting allegories, mesmerized by one's own terpsichorial patterns: wall-to-wall pall in a wake of the world. The supposed answers to the “non-simple identity” (borrowing the term from literature on quantum theory) ever more prominently raising its Gorgon head in pure higher mathematics, later logic and physics, by devolution from Abel's work of 1826, were integration, centralization of authority, ultimately federation under an oligarchy protecting itself with Panopticon by the droning of “Gorgon Stares” (a classic example of “compensatory abreaction”) -- a reactionary harking back to the Concert of Europe's reactionary harking back to the royalist status quo ante French Revolution (but surely not so much of a throwback as to re-create the WestWork of Our Lady of Paris by analogical models in design of political economies). Hardly plausible actual solutions to the actual ultimate qua fundamental problems! The supposed answers were in 180-degree contrary motion to possible actual answers, like, for instance, Lukasiewiczian LETS. Why such retrograde policy motion? Because, from the 1870s, massive attempts were made to prevent appearance of what ultimately became Lukasiewicz logics (note, as hilarious, that the Wiki Timeline of Mathematical Logic does not note Lukasiewicz, and that Wiki in its History of Logic mentions Lukasiewicz only as someone under whom Tarski studied, Tarski doing his best to dissimulate, better destroy utilities of, Lukasiewicz logics with his proposed concept of truth-value: truth pertains purely to object alone, as if there were an object-in-itself, as if object is so much the 1 of ₁T₂ as to altogether discount _µT_m, a back-channel way to denigrate observer-state/object-system interaction at quantum measurement and to disbar Lukasiewicz from application to Schrödinger), and then to prevent applications of those logics -- most particularly to prevent sensitive applications like to interpretation of Schrödinger's wave-function -- these preventive efforts constellating a retrograde mindset upon which policymakers subliminally imprinted in order to forward backwardization. The reality has been several ceasefires in a continuous world war beginning in 1870, where there has been no substantive change in the fundaments at issue -- and it can now be clearly seen that the human species does not have the cognitive wherewithal to make it through what it has brought down upon itself, that, indeed, it is systematically assaulting residuals of the wherewithal it once possessed. To wit: “The world's not in crisis -- it's just between stabilities”, Doug Saunders, The Globe and Mail, 28 January 2012; as if global growth since advent -- 1790s or thereaboots, same period as the Hamilton-Jefferson debates concerning the national debt -- of the industrial revolution were not the foremost unsolved problem of the ever accelerating world crisis! How about considering “The Price of Growth” (Gregor Macdonald, ChrisMartenson, 30 January 2012) and America's decision to export-lead itself back to Keynesian mercantilism and from there back to Mun-Colbert zero-sumism (when quantum-composite relative-state is “what the woooorld needs now”). Is humanity the species of superior intelligence? When has any species -- including that human -- voluntarily, even under duress, curbed its own exponential growth? The only example I can think of is humanity under animistic propitiation behaviors (externality-tagged m-logically-valued LETS would be a high-tech reincarnation thereof). The flatline human population graph ended with advent of monotheism (plus associated single-valued languages, logic, brainstates, identity constructs) and went exponential with onset of the industrial revolution. In the current climate of hysterical anti-paganism, surely, don't y'think, the EU will do whatever is necessary to sustain itself until foamout at cusp catastrophe, the same for all nesting sets, the set of all sets including itself. It's not the rich, the famous, the power brokers, the raddled leadership elite, the celebrities who are responsible for this growth: they are merely parasites upon it, and removal of their influence/determinations, indeed, removal of them, would not quench exponential growth. The mainstream caught in the wrong channel: its world-picture, beliefs, values, preferred inner states, aspirations, fixations. I am ever more convinced as to accuracy of my long-held gut assessment that there could, optimistically speaking, be a ten-percent human survival rate at cuspover. So, at the beginning of 2012, can it be at all surprising, for instance, that George Soros -- who, by his own account, founded a significant aspect of his mindset upon a reductive interpretation of self-referential propositions, the collection of which constitute contents of the order-types of Lukasiewicz logics -- should be advocating (see, for Soros self-referentially reviewing his new book, Financial Turmoil in Europe and the United States, by way of promoting continued institutionalization of old economic thinking: “How to Save the Euro”, The New York Review of Books, 20 January 2012) further contrary motion as the supposed European answer (see: “Soros: euro crisis might wreck EU”, Larry Elliott and Jill Treanor, The Guardian, 25 January 2012), and is forecasting street violence, a harsh crackdown, and resultant repressive political system in the U.S. (see: “George Soros predicts class war and riots”, Rosa Prince, The Telegraph, 24 January 2012) due to its present politico-economic conditions, rather than insuring that his INET produces possible actual answers to the underlying actual problems? Davos PR, my dear fellow, in the “Good form!” of aristocratic drawing rooms, wherein the frequent fugal foulbrooding concerned who was next to be drawn and quartered. Peerage to steerage where their brainstates place them on consignment. Don't know the difference between an Aristotelian pyle and Platonic hyle, do they now -- logical abduction being in abeyance due to a self-identification such that enduring substance thereof is misconstrued Ding an sich, that Kantian sickness of the selfsame precluded by quantum relative-state and involved perfect Platonic polytopes of higher-order-type Brillouin zones. Conflate by projective-identification they do, don't they, selfsame self-identification with self-reference -- whereas, nonorientable self-reentry is actually [no}₁T₂-self<<>>reference.

What was the main difference between Japanese “comfort station” women and American “R&R hotel” women? The former were impressed largely by overt physical coercion, while the latter were recruited primarily by financial coercion (the offer of so much money by comparison to local incomes that relatives of the women became involved in decisions to prostitute). What is the main difference between the old-time Anschluss (mine, I now discover, was a fairly common reaction, see: “The Silent Anschluss: Germany Formally Requests That Greece Hand Over Its Fiscal Independence”, Zero Hedge, 27 January 2012) and present-day exploitation of the PIIGS? The former was carried out by internal subversion and direct military occupation, while the PIIGS were recruited by financial coercion (the offer of so much money in loans by comparison to monies that could have been generated by local multipliers that decisions to prostitute were foregone). And now the company store (the IMF and Merkozy) is calling in the loans and beginning to build debtors' prisons (see: “…German Government Calls for Greece to Cede Sovereignty…”, Mike Shedlock, Global Economic Trend Analysis, 27 January 2012). Proper-subsetting of the EU corpus is insipient alliance-making for the general dogfight to come. And I think that reversion to a One World Currency in the single-valued and singly-logically-valued selfsame it-ness of gold would do, in general terms, much the same thing to the planet that the euro, as derivative of the dollar system, has done to Europe. And more: the Gaddafi gold dinar story would become a footnote to the resultant war(s). Why? The warfare-inducing proclivities of scarcity driving gold bubbling; the fact that gold is only marginally less fiat than is paper, i.e., the increment of industrial/decorative utility/longevity greater than paper; the inequities involved in the lack of uniform distribution of gold in the ground, and the power thus to devolve to gold miners and/or their masters (see, for an especially interesting characterization of this: “Gold Bonds: Averting Financial Armageddon”, Keith Weiner of The Daily Capitalist, as posted to Zero Hedge, 26 January 2012; real value of this bonds-of-gold article is his particularly focused account as to how the prevailing global monetary system is analogous to a self-driven exponentially-growing check-kiting scheme, a Ponzi fraudulent macroeconomically embedded, due, not to system bugs, but to system-defining properties, leading inevitably to onset of cascade processes involving duration mismatches: this is so similar to atmospheric cascade theory, one simply must comment upon it, upon how the fraudulent is a psychopathic regression of natural processes, processes in the “raw” whereupon duration phase-correlation matches are so exquisite as to induce “super” states) and how this would exercise in apportionment of access to resources; the fact that present distribution of gold holdings, upon shift to gold as global vehicle-reserve currency, would carry the whole history of use of economic malware into the indefinite future, thus preventing substantive changes in global allocation patterns such that the “big issues” of the accelerating planetary crisis could effectively be addressed; the inability of gold as One World Currency to adequately deal with the impacts which quantum properties of quantum-based-technology infusions have made (e.g., financialization by regressed conversion-disorder displacement/projection of those quantum properties); because use of any single commodity, or finite basket thereof, as a universal referent precludes the employment of “quantum composites” as relative-state vehicles of self-organization such that the “big issues” could adequately be addressed. The vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock”, planet Earth, must -- by some Musculpting M^nk-ary operator version of Adolph Lowe's “instrumental inference” research methodology -- be identified, indexed, indicator-tagged, and interfaced to market (price) mechanisms of autopoiesis, something which can only be done bottom-up for that's where the EEI (essential elements of information) reside (to facilitate such [operator}ization/data-basing of Earthresources time-shapes is the main reason for diversely commodity-backing LETS vehicle currencies). Sumanasiri Liyanage (writing “The Political Economy of Structural Economic Dynamics…” in Sri Lanka's Development Since Independence, Weligamage D. Lakshman and Clement A. Tisdell, editors, Nova Science, 2000, p. 168) nicely summarizes the relevance of Lowe (observe the “viewing limit” upon return visits, and be aware that such limits have always been placed upon access to such ideas, limits in large measure responsible for the present human predicament):

Unlike in the old debate, I do not pose the market and the plan as mutually exclusive alternatives. Adolph Lowe made a distinction between planning as a form of “instrumental inference” and planning as a system based on “command and fulfillment”. As Chakravarty has pointed out, planning as an instrumental inference and market as a “servomechanism” are not necessarily inconsistent.

This has little to do with vonHayek's discourses on cycle theory relative to early-Lowe and the Kiel School -- except that accounts of the “horizontal” inter-sectoral disaggregation focused upon in structural theories of growth, and involved induced wavicles, be understood an adumbration of appreciation of autopoiesis by quantum relative-state (quoting the linked piece: “…the 'structural' approach argues that the source of growth and cycles is the relationship between various sectors in the real economy”), that adumbration needing “verticalization” via chronotopological analysis as foundation for vonHayek “time-shapes”. We may note that -- as “intra” and “inter” are relative to the nesting schemata chosen -- Kiel School sectoral-disaggregation theory applies to EU structural dynamics of conflict-induced proper-subsetting (PIIGS, innerCore/outerCore, core/periphery, 2-speed, 3-speed, et cetera) under “one size fits all” rule regulation. We may further add, for those into metatheoretics: Cartesian-Newtonian equilibrium econometrics correlates to a memetime-bound account; planometrics and stochastic modeling to attempts to twist the topological handle of first-order operator-time; Kiel School inter-sectoral disaggregation theory of the etiology of cyclicity, and Lowe's “instrumental inference”, to an attempt to twist the topological handle of second-order operator-time; the Sorosian take upon non-equilibrium market reflexivities to a recoil from the metapsychological imports of the nonorientable self-reentrant identity-transparency manifest under third-order temporal operators.

Anyone in fear and loathing who doubts death of the institutionalization of the Cartesian-Newtonian Lockean-AngloSaxon Weltanschauung, with its embedded metaphysic and value system, should read this article: “Critics Question Merkel's Fiscal Pact Proposal”, Carsten Volkery, Der Spiegel, 27 January 2012 (remembering that Germany's postwar Grundgesetz Basic Law was written under exogenous tutelage). Speeding tickets on debt/GDP ratio! Calls to traffic court. Fines which will increase speed of the nation-state being ticketed for breaking the speed limit. Will there be ticket quotas like those given cops across the American South, like the bomb-tonnage quotas given target analysts during the Viet Nam war, like the quotas given bondjammers of WTC and The City? This Pact is no mere “handicap”; it's a deonetic madcap syncategorematic consequent of the necessity of naming! Reliance upon rule regulation entangled with imprudence of juridical kneejerk inextricably tied to “logic-itself a fallacy of exhaustive hypotheses” imposing, by falsum in omnibus, falsum in uno, the necessity of the politician to lie (in crisis only?). Is truth atemporal or are its m-values verbalized over memetime? Truth or consequences precludes reconciliation by ₁T₂win Towers of the ECJ. As double-binds have hand-over-foot multiplied epiphenomenal to disintegration of the governance paradigm, the glues of deep indebtedness, high incidence of degenerative disease, inordinately expensive healthcare, insurance and legal counsel have been assiduously cultivated as essential to national security, for, absent these, the entrapment which glutamatergic prescriptive enculturation entails would be insufficient to guarantee a tonic baseline in civil order of litigious society: were the debt problem ever solved in societies systematically stripped of superintegrative multi-utilities and their metareferential tropes, those societies would fly apart at the seams -- absent totalism in domestic full-spectrum dominance. Remember -- NDAAACTASOPAPIPA: countering threats internal to the military, or by the military, via shifts from the draft to all-volunteer to privatized security forces to robotic warfare leaves the cyberthreat paramount -- that Derry's Bloody Sunday was to voice opposition to incarceration without trial? Remember what Bloody Sunday facilitated? Understand that once state militaries are forced to develop low-intensity warfare capabilities, they've more than half lost the war for which they prepare (for the contrary -- win every battle by declarative, and by psyopsic control over boundary definitions, so as to ultimately lose the war -- command-position view, see: “Special operations expanding as wars recede”, Kimberly Dozier, AP/Stars & Stripes, 27 January 2012)? A shift from big-unit to small-unit actions whilst simultaneously expanding geographical extent of long-war engagements is an excellent move under difficult circumstances for the insurgent; for the counterinsurgent, however, it is indicative of a major strategic setback prefiguring coming events. Land of the Freak-Out and Home of the Brainwasher? This, a path to resolution of the “big issues” at planetary crisis? Merkozy {Brain//storm}: de{one}tic dyad fixated upon binary logic of the obligatory and the permissionary (contemplate “collective meaning” of the death of a Russian-American superstar: Natalie Wood). Modal operator(s) co-noting contingens as necessarium on the proclamatory basis that doxastic modalities are epistemic in being deonetic under the alethic necessaries of memetimed objects. Homoscedastic weak-until temporal operators hypostatizing yet another relevance logic to material implication of binary linear temporal logic. Obviously, the elementa juris naturalis are the non-standard axioms (for these, see: p. 668, Vol. 2, The Moon of Hoa Binh, our novel) of set theory (since those standard were in 1940 of no Wittgensteinian use-value for disproving, and in 1963 for proving)! Otherwise, how could there be quantum relative-state identity-transparency in multimodalities of M^nk-ary operators cloud computing the mesh networks constituting the reasoning web subtended by internal Musculpt? No wonder Alfred Tarski, in run up to WWII, had to take the concept of Fregean Begriffschrift beyond many-to-one ancestral relations, beyond On Denoting, into a semantic scripting of truth-value and associated model-theoretic notion of entailment by truthbearers (such as elements of our political class!). Good form! Old Chaps -- one well-formed formula to the other, each asserting inferential validity of herhis eventually-granted superassertibility of chosen temporal logic of actions with regard to the involved state transition system.

Burning the CosmicPlatform, the MVRS (m-logically-valued reference space), the Tzog-chen AllBase, the fractal drum of hoa binh xanh (green peace): from indefinite fractals to self-similar fractals to self-identical fractals to the homogenously selfsame. If memetime actually is an objective, passing, linear, reference time, then, by this and this, overkill at cusp-catastrophe foamout likely will transpire in some interval spanning a decade or two.

Musico{logic}ally speaking, the T of Emil Post's, circa 1921, T-type (e.g., ₁T₂, _µT_m) notation of Lukasiewicz logics (register significance of the fact that Post's work in this area goes unmentioned in Wiki 's biographic portrait: see Post's paper, “Introduction to a General Theory of Elementary Propositions”, American Journal of Mathematics, 43, 1921; if the inner shift hasn't been made by age 25, it's unlikely to be made, given the nature of glutamatergic neuronal etching) denotes tone, temperament, transposition -- under the proposition that totality of the music system employed analogically models the prevailing Weltanschauung. From a modernist perspective, the Tristan chord and the chromaticism of Isolde's “feminine stink” (to use Catherine Clément's term) may be regarded foremost hallmarks of the disintegration of tonality. Wagner brought together his composition of Tristan und Esolde from the early-1850s, though it was not premiered until 10 June 1865 (a few months after the end of the advent of modern mass total warfare, i.e., the American Civil War). While early indications of deterioration of the common practice of diatonic composition date to the period of the War of 1812 and Napoleon's withdrawal from Russia, coming on with the rise of Romanticism, chromaticism had a long history prior to the common practice period, and its 19th-century rebirth and developments there from (Caliban Reborn, as Wilfred Mellers would have it) are best understood in that longer context. To my way of thinking, dodecaphonic music stalled, shifted into a “total control” Thermidorian reaction, never transited into a full-blown New Music codification, because the correspondence between Postian T and musicological T-S was never contemplated, and synaesthetic Musculpt, thus, never appeared. I received enough exposure to this long history of chromaticism while taking music appreciation and composition courses at George Mason University to ruminate on issues involved, but I do not know enough to provide a useful summation. Nonetheless, there may be some small value in succinctly stating how these relatively uninformed thoughts, juxtaposed with perspectives arrived at in other areas, have influenced my take on events of the 20th century. N. H. Abel's 1826 “Impossibility” Theorem existence proof for transalgebras, to my schematic understanding, was in Jung-Pauli synchronicity to the rebirth of chromaticism -- and it was THE traumatic event sustained by post-Renaissance Western civilization, because Abel's work most fundamentally challenged the operative notion of identity qua identity, an event yet to be adequately integrated to conscious ratiocination. Abel's leap into mathematical transcendentality constellated -- far more than did rebirth of chromaticism, the import of which was largely restricted to the musicological analogue -- collective unconscious eidolons of the pre-common-practice-period significations, metareferences, tropes associated with coloratura back to pre-Hellenistic eras, i.e., in general terms, paganism-animism (in modern guise: occultism). Mainstream response to developments in both areas -- chromaticism in art music and Platonic transcendentalism in mathematics -- was back-reaction against, leading to overt outrage and dissimulation, covert suppression and denial. Surface-structure expressions were tolerated, all the while deep-structure imports were confined-to/driven-into the unconscious, there to fester, only to emerge in regressed, infantile, violent form by means of conversion-displacement at projective-identification. The fullest expression of this regression, so far, according to this notion, was the pre-WWII nazification process. The avant-garde in all areas of Weltanschauung codification embraced the rebirth and prepared the way for its conscious integration, whilst the mainstream back-reacted upon its hidden metric. This placed Western civilization in a horrendous double-bind, from which it has yet to exit.

Why do knowledgeable commentators on the prevailing EMU-EU crisis choose to ignore the role played -- in determining selection of the political and economic and monetary algorithms employed -- by the military-strategy considerations active in process of EU formation (see, for an example: “Unraveling the Euro Crisis”, Edwin M. Truman, Peterson Institute for International Economics, 26 January 2012), thus veiling, even from themselves, the staged onset of WWIII we currently are experiencing, the alliance formations predisposed to congeal (e.g., Germano-Russian Bloc aligned to a Greater China incorporating Japan), the likely stages by which that war will proceed toward full elaboration, how these might be impacted by atmospheric puts, and so on and so on? What is the real reason Europeans during the late-20th century chose to envision European integration (monetary, fiscal, and political) on bases of 17th- and 18th-century models -- not those of more recent advent? Whywhat in psycho-neuro-immuno-dynamics of collective psychosis and brain impairment? It's hard to imagine how there could be a more perfect illustrative example of subject-going-to-(physical)object-level conversion-disorder displacement at projective-identification in collective transference than is intermediacy by “autonomous flocking” algorithm in design of “swarm controllers” -- that is, psychological regression/projection of the “relative-state” of THE quantum brain not contained by its multi-scale-swarmed glutamate-etched molecular-cellular brains. Xbee support, Zigbee protocol. Resurrection, on a more-regressed higher-tech level, of the early-20th-century mass psychological identification with animal societies informing evolution of the national-socialist notion of Schicksal (not Shizel of Eternia; not the 1925 film, entitled Schicksal, featuring Graf Vr{ANN}a), i.e., the entelechy of the nation-state as Animal Farm/House. Der Begriff Schicksal was einen Lebenslauf pragt oder beeinflusst (as stated on many websites). Xbee support, Zigbee protocol. See for words and images: “Deployment of Large Aerial Swarms”, DIY Drones, 8 September 2010; and “Boeing demonstrates swarm technology”, Darren Quick, Gizmag, 22 August 2011; and “UPenn's GRASP lab unleashes a swarm of Nano Quadrotors”, Randolph Jonsson, Gizmag, 1 February 2012; and “D-Dalus -- an entirely new genre of aircraft arrives”, Mike Hanlon, Gizmag, 21 June 2011. Xbee support, Zigbee protocol -- all the while actual bee societies qua “colonies” founder under anthropogenic chemical and electromagnetic assaults. There can be little doubt -- given, for one among many, psychodynamics setting the techno agenda -- that there will be no significant attempt by humans to actually resolve the “big issues” of the rapidly evolving global crisis by outgrowing 17th- and 18th-century mindstates. One must admit that the notion of projective-identification is not very well conveyed in Psych 101, and that insight thereto has not travelled well: which department, for instance, believes that the national way of life is under attack, believes in the existence of conspiracies, believes in imposing strict laws on society, is strictly nationalistic, and believes in being prepared for an attack? Governance extremes at protecting the very idea of Cartesian-Newtonian country qua country and supraordinate agglomerations thereof is the royal road to human-species self-extinction, i.e., the path long since chosen. Psycho-socio-cultural ripples emanating from the certain-to-prevail internecine strife between knuckle-draggers daily strapping guns and persons not so packing will altogether prevent any such significant attempts. One thing I saw up close during the Viet Nam war (most notably at Targets Branch, CICV, where B-52 strike locations were chosen): when people get cornered by the limitations of their own minds, they lash out at the phantom of self-in-projection by uncontrolled violent rage at whomever, whenever, wherever with whatever is at hand. It seems very likely that parallels are to be found these days in Afghanistan (see, for edification on that situation: “Truth, lies and Afghanistan”, Lt. Col. Daniel L. Davis, Armed Forces Journal, February 2012). Indeed, the very hard to deny-ignore subject-(physical)object-level projection noted above has associated with it a compensatory introjection presaging mass swarming behaviors of unrivaled scale: just try to imagine several billion people simultaneously lapsing into Rwanda rage rampage facilitated by “smart”-mob quantum-based technology protected by Cartesian-Newtonian ₁T₂-identity-defending patent & copyright law! Global preconditions to forced-draft deurbanization (on Khmer Rouge precedent -- and Spanish ghost-town toying-with, not to mention: Deetroit) in compensatory abreaction to the planetarized development-is-urbanization (sub, ex, mega, super) Huntingtonesque “forced-draft urbanization” economic-free-fire zones are being ever more increasingly fulfilled: read, for instance, “The Greatest Misallocation of Resources in the History of the World”, James Howard Kunstler, Subrealism, 25 January 2012 (a misallocation begun, take note, under impress of the infantile transference psychodynamics lavishly displayed by the “Greatest” Generation and currently featured on Turner Classic Movies). In [face}book of impure quantal “non-simple identity” is one type of substitute security blanket ever enough? Obviously, I don't believe the actual responsible agents have been The Usual Suspects in this largely-acephalic cosmic [Casa}blanca: money, power, sex… Next to that of DC, the upper reach of LA society is the most injured cognitive space I've personally been exposed to. Nowadays, much of Hollywood film output and a large swath of popular fiction, both produced for global consumption, are devoted to refashioning, for current uses, thematic contents of Nazi occultism. Some of these occult themes are not altogether removable from Latter-day Saint Marriner Eccles' prefigurations of Kalecki and Keynes, Keynesian militarism, FDR's big-band-era demandsideism, New Keyesianism. Moreover, Ertel's MetZet (Meteorologische Zeitschrift) contributions on vorticity came in 1942, whilst quantum-relativistic perspectives upon same were rejected by BPA (Beitrage zur Physik der Atmosphare) three decades later. Ask oneself when the primitive equation set for atmospheric dynamics was re-scaled/renormalized so as to sustain the “classical limit” mandated by physicists who do not study atmospheric physics. Quoting our novel, The Moon of Hoa Binh (pp. 717-18, Vol. 1):

Looking back over the history of theory in the field, one had to realize that there hadn't been a really major theoretical contribution since Ertel's “potential vorticity theorem” -- and that had come in 1942! This theorem was a synthesis of all the classical conservation principles (i.e., mass, momentum and energy) into one mathematical statement. Ertel focused our attention on the fact that all atmospheric energy transformations can be characterized by the three factors governing solenoid intensity: the changing stability of the column, the changing rotation of the column, the gravitational acceleration. Each of these factors, of course, in order to be properly characterized, has to be referred to a reference state. A decade later, Iraundegui began a consideration of Ertel by noting that Wilhem Bjerknes' classical work gave the first substantive mathematical description of meteorological processes by centering attention on the physics of solenoid intensity. Iraundegui went on to abstract the three central factors in Ertel's theorem and in so doing found a marvelous parallel in the formalism expressing the importance of solenoid physics to both the electromagnetic and hydrothermodynamic domains. He pointed out that meteorology is ultimately interested in the number of turnings around a point of an air parcel. This is exactly parallel to Faraday's concept of a solenoid! But, unfortunately, during WW II meteorologists abandoned the use of constant height geometries in favor of constant pressure geometries. In constant height geometries the solenoid importance is explicit in a term in the equations used, whereas in using constant pressure geometries, no term of solenoid physics appears -- but it is, nonetheless, operating in the ongoing energy transformation process.

Does this tell us anything about the famous “divergence error” associated with Richardson's PE set -- the fact that large-scale disturbance is subject to “having the heat turned up” to suddenly having acoustic waves make Swiss cheese out of the previously simply-connected structure of spacetime? You bet it does. But to discover exactly what we are told, it was first necessary to psych-out what had been done to the PE set in order to accommodate operational necessities of modeling. Such accommodation is okay, but it is not advisable that the modeling picture be mistaken for the physics of the process -- which is exactly what happened as time passed. First, sound waves were banished by Charney in 1948; then gravity waves were similarly dealt with by him in 1955: in the paper entitled “The Use of the Primitive Equations of Motion in Numerical Prediction”. After these papers, theoreticians who talked about the physics of acoustic and gravity wave modes as being involved in storm genesis were scoffed at [nowadays, think of, in this context, “acoustic analogues to black hole computers”, whereas specialist in tornadogenesis, Douglas A. Paine, was already thinking along such lines by the early-1970s].

In my inexpert humble opinion -- given that what is currently identified as quantum aspects of a system have primarily to do with functional integration of subsystems defined over Newtonian boundary conditions -- there is little chance that the corpus of climate-related sciences assuming existence a “classical limit” have overestimated severity of the evolving climate-shift dynamic. Too big to fail? Is temperature the marker, is equivalent potential temperature the marker, is some higher-order hypertemperature the marker, is there a “the marker”? And perhaps of greatest significance is The Tripartite Fertile Crescent Religion's fundamentalist eschatology of End Times: “They truly believe the end of time is here”. Two-thousand and more years ago, this [be}lief (archaic: lief = willing, in this semantic-syntactical context, “be willing” to die as a suicide agent thrown against the Roman Empire, an agent expressing self-immolative Christian values) was collective phobia of esoteric (hardly the Roman state!) pagan understanding (be<<>>life as Dionysian bee-dance?) qua direct ontic experience that memetime is a learned psychosociopathic behavior transmitted from generation to generation such that the “empty centers”, about which autopoiesis (extrojected as: The Holy Ghost) congeals, are filled with oppressive iatrogenic authority fatally (“lost-pilot effect” qua “pilot-fixation syndrome” at information overload) seeking “total control”, dodecaphonic and otherwise. Memetime presently, this “truly believe” is obsessive mass projective-identification of/with the subliminal recognition that post-quantum-relativity physics is killing the mistaken notion that memetime (i.e., the entropy version of the Second Law of Thermodynamics) is a real, objective, referential passing-time (such temporal trope being an essential prerequisite to maintenance of psychological identification with purified I-am-me-and-only-me ₁T₂-selfsameness, an identification state which JohnJoan Q. Average, be heshe employee of nation-state or one and two steps removed there from, never exits, particularly as facilitated by employment of orgasm circuit-breaker). Too glutamatergically brain impaired for our own good. The ₁T₂-AI of a synaptically-pruned neuron or an ANN (artificial neural network) is less smart than the least smart of the infinite collections of infinite collections of _µT_m-logically-valued order-types, and associated kinds of number, available to THE quantum brain not contained by its molecular-cellular brains. Moreover, a memetime simple-instant, and hence simple-entropy, is indefinable under any order-type other than that ₁T₂. By all means Question Everything, even the idea that we are a smart species. We have been losing conscious access to classes of logical-value order-types for well over 12,000 years. No cosmic prior agreement as to NegAm (negative amortization) in neuropsychiatric space. Once we got down to ₁T₂-only, there was not much more cognitive equity to lose (except, perhaps, acephalic abiotic oil: à la Velikovsky's thesis concerning PosAm, i.e., ambrosia, come down from Heaven when the Jews fled from Egypt and the Red Sea parted, thus separating the quantum brain from the molecular-cellular brains not containing it and preparing the world for advent of Helicopter Ben and nanodrones?). Not a smart behavior. For related ruminations, see computer scientist George Mobus' review of Uppsala (Uppsala's International Journal of Quantum Chemistry published our peer-reviewed 1979 operator-time model of DNA superconductant pi-electron gas-core radiation-exchange wave dynamics) philosopher Craig Dilworth's book Too Smart for Our Own Good, entitled “What is a Smart Species Like Us Doing in a Predicament Like This?”, Question Everything, 2 February 2012. The 17th- and 18th-century ideas that representative democracy is democratic, that electoral college amongst federated states is democratic, that a non-adaptive set of verbalizable rules constituted on basis of Locke's Newtonian vector-sum algorithms is democratic have -- beginning in 7th-grade Civics class, circa 1958, a long memetime after the 1700s -- never been compelling or seemed capable of synergistically interfacing human with natural systems -- so, there has been no surprise to me that a so-called smart species finds itself in its present megafix. Though NDAAACTASOPAPIPA is a threat to the economic-financial blogsphere, the greater threat is the fact that economic entities globally are rapidly transiting to the status of being civil affairs units of military governments, such that there will be no economics to report upon or analyze. Once a global war of planetary spatial extent and indefinite duration is declared, e.g., GWOT, keeping confined the conditions and decision modes thus imposed, not allowing them to bleedover into “removed” aspects, preventing them from becoming planetarized may be impossible. This observation could be overly pessimistic, but having received numerous disciplinary counseling sessions at AU/SIS during 1963 from a retired Loy Henderson, sessions which devolved to discussions of Greece, I now naturally wonder what he, were he here, would think of what is presently happening to Greece, why the Greeks see a parallel with their experience of WWII, and what the consequences of that perception might be. In '63, I argued, spuriously or not, that the reasons the Greek insurgency was so easily put down were two: the communists in the anti-Nazi resistance acted prematurely in 1945 and Churchill, before the war ended, had prevailed upon Stalin to insure denial of a safe base area, this [prevail}lance and insurance being inseparable from the post-post-Potsdam “refederation” of the 1918 “federation” or attempted “federation” of all or part of Backa, Banat, Banovina, Baranja, Bosnia, Croatia, Dalmatia, Herzegovina, Istria, Kosovo, Macedonia, Metohija, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia, Slovonia, Syrmia, and Vojvodina into Yugoslavia (no Polish-logic LETS having been contemplated in lieu of “federation” -- or, more recently, in lieu of simple-“defederation”). These days, “disorderly” with regard to EMU difficulties is blogged without analysis of the military considerations. Just north of Greece there has been something like a military occupation for two decades. Leapfrog Turkey, and to the east there is only instability and/or contestation to be found. Backside of Switzerland to backside of China. In such military circumstances, it is not hard to imagine choices for military occupation, under whatever name, being made in order to protect EMU. Otherwise, were Germany to exit the Eurozone, with whom would she bond?

Interesting to read these three pieces in tandem: “'Banned' nerve gases to be used on UK streets?”, RT News, 8 February 2012; and “Moscow theatre siege and anaesthetic drugs”, The Lancet, Josef Rieder, et al., 361:9363, p. 1131, 29 March 2003; and “Non-Lethal Weapons Research in the US: Calmatives and Malordorants”,The Sunshine Project Backgrounder #8, July 2001 (this last with regard to: the incapacitating chemical agent named “aerosolized ketamine”, ketamine, in liquid general-anesthetic form, used extensively in cocktail with some psychedelic-suppressing sedative, say, valium, by IM injection, during the Viet Nam war by, say, SF medics performing on wounded strikers emergency war surgery in their clinics [unconsciousness within about 20 seconds, lasts about half an hour], endogenous ketamine being the neurotransmitter antidote to the endogenous excitotoxic neurotransmitter glutamate, nature's own neuronal-synaptic etcher-pruner and neural-network wipeouter).

I have made no attempt to read into this, as there are myriad experts, but it has long seemed to me that fractal e-boundaries for m-logically-valued LETS e-currencies have had nascent existence since the mid-1960s (nearly four decades before advent of EMU) in ARPA-NSF-internet routing-reachability protocols. The band-pass properties of fractal drums are nascent in firewall-filter algorithms. Relative-state is nascent in link-state protocols. Digressing just for the fun of it, and to illustrate how such ideas elaborate-in upon the discrete awareness, I remember sitting relaxed in Kubiak's Kyoto “live house”, Jittoku, circa February 1990, listening to songstress Mika (original meaning: divine) of the all-girls band, The Links, when paresthesia electroshock re-minded me to Pay attention, you idiot, an important idea has just passed through you, and you have missed it! then drifting off into contemplation of link-state synergies. What path have you since followed, Mika? Regge bones are nascent in distance-vector protocols. Gödel numbers and their Gödel numberings are nascent in IP addresses of routers-nodes, collections thereof, nesting foams of such collections, point-set topologies of such foams, sheaves/branes of such laminated spacetime topologies. VonHayek “time-shapes” are nascent in the individual router's registration of overall network topology by link-state protocol (were link-state topologies carried to chronotopology by analogy to pi-electron gas-core dynamics of DNA at radiation-exchange/replication, this state mapped by minimum times for “spontaneous localization” -- decomposition of the reference space, that it -- of packet at churn, and were the virtual states of that overall topology mapped by Musculpted m-scenarios e-commons computer-gaming of Lowean “instrumental inferences”, by analogy to DNA gas-core higher-temporal-curl quantum-wave dynamics and associated overall topological configurations assumed by the macromolecule). But counts to this or that type of infinity and countings at non-demerged infinity-types-chosen under Axiom of Choice are not the same thing: that's why I say “nascent”. Were authentic Lukasiewiczian LETS to evolve over internet backbone, and cloud-computing “gas-core dynamics”, the ₁T₂-operator nomenclature -- for each, if, then, in, else, is, for, from, to, null, error, infinity, and, not, of, uh, uh, say, the Bellman-Ford algorithm -- would have to update-refresh via the Gödel-numbering of Gödel numbers unto Karpenko functors to higher and higher logical-value order-types as monetary units employing those order-types came online/incloud. Such higher order-types would initialize by Musculpt, as f-BGP (fractal-border gateway protocol) incorporated to itself m-valued mappings between governance-systems bureaucratic variables, mesh-network/cloud gateway properties, and indicators tagged to currency-unit base-state as the m-values of the polyphasic unit-vector representing packet thereof to overall time-shapes chronotopology/potential-temperature of the cloud (hypertemperature of, say, electrons, being understood, not a mere matter of simple-motion, but expression of the twistorized spin components of 3-fold quantal operator-time, i.e., three orders of temporal curl crossed into Euler-Riemann zeta function, as used to define critical temperature, that function taken to the hypercomplex-number level as applied to Brillouin zones and their polytopes -- nestings of nests being relative to partitioning-algorithm properties of the quantum-measurement occasion, there is some absolute zero at every degree kelvin)… Schizoid word-salad, what? Yep, that's what it is, yessirree!

The superlatives. When the reporting of world affairs became the comics section. White-collar criminal justification system. Extreme supreme: anything that could save the human species from self-extinction. Whom which what? Pinnacles. When? Whichwhat came first, economy or governance? Problems with The Moneychangers and their tables go back a lot further than Arthur Hailey and end of the Viet Nam war. When Hamilton won the debate with Jefferson over the national debt, the national interest decisively diverged from the American interest. Typical behavior (quoting Hailey, p. 23, the Pan paperback edition, 1975):

Long before, Alex had also gained insights into banking from his father -- a Dutch immigrant who became a Minnesota farmer.

Pieter Vandervoort Sr had burdened himself with a bank loan and, to pay interest on it, labored from pre-dawn until after darkness, usually seven days a week. In the end he died of overwork, impoverished, after which the bank sold his land, recovering not only arrears of interest but its original investment. His father's experience showed Alex -- through his grief -- that the other side of a bank counter was the place to be.

Eventually the route to banking for young Alex was a Harvard scholarship and an honours degree in economics.

Neutron loans in a defalcation called an economy go back to the use of cockle shells as reserve currency. Progenitors with no self-definition independent of attributed duty-to-system, even if prevailing “system” is not worthy of the name: yes, I've known a few such. Heh-heh-heh! Since The Tripartite Fertile Crescent Religion failed to keep the tables overturned, what does that prefigure as to fate of that religion? As we have seen: at the very least, a series of Cain-and-Abel moments. How could silent-discoing flash-crowd performance-art-happening special case of smart-mob occupy-XYZ ochlocracy be an intelligent counterfoil to the corporatocracy's managed-democratic Wolinic “inverted-totalitarianism” when technology for this sort of “smart” was developed for hyperpowered battlefield management coupled to weather-engineered MASS (mesoscale atmospheric simulation system) control over aerosol dispersion? The result achieved is in the form of the method employed. Since micro-softy Billy Gates ₁T₂-buys into regressed-reductive science, his billions help marshal sulfur-dioxide-pother chemtrail streamers (see: “Bill Gates exposed for funding research, promotion of spraying geo-engineered 'chemtrails' across globe”, Ethan A. Huff, NaturalNews, 8 February 2012), when ongoing climate-shift is no mere greenhousing and not explicable solely on basis of an atmospheric science bound and hogtied by a “classical limit”. Cellular technology of smart-mob telepresence is mass projection of a conversion-disorder displacement of the Everettian relative-state identity-transparency inherent to the quantum brain not contained by its molecular-cellular brains -- therefore, expression of a collective psychological regression. If the method employed is a regression, what good could the inevitable outcome possibly embody? Particularly so, when the corporatarchs have themselves begun to use that method in color-and-spring-revolutionary tactics of low-intensity staged onset of PW1? And -- since, as Hailey points out: Kublai Khan invented MPC, fiat military payment currency, and its “mongolization” -- don't expect a Chinese solution to the conundrum which is Bretton Woods II, no matter how much m-logically-valued LETS e-nesting foams might resemble Chinese boxes. Defeasance: in his own way, Gates defenestrates, as has Soros, when both have been uniquely placed with respect to aspects of the implementation of Lukasiewiczian LETS.

Inner Musculpt is something like rhythm-entrained, foot-beaten Ma (ma being the root homonym signifying “sacred space”) River oarsmen-chant songlines (construction of the chants told the oarsmen where they were on the obstruction-filled river during night movement: I had no access to such chants during night movement on the Mekong, circa 1967, but I was only the token American, and some of our “oarsmen” must have had some such inner chant, otherwise I wouldn't be-here-now) -- only, in the case of Musculpt with regard to intellectual climes, the “construction” is provided by collective unconscious archetypal event gradients. Rhythm with a purpose, no mere excitotoxin This-Is-It collective black-psyche diversion from matters of substance-consequence. Distinguish between acting-out, significance of which is or becomes conscious, and that in which insight remains confined to the unconscious -- particularly if collective behavior. Or Musculpt akin to what Toru Takemitsu connoted (jacket notes to November Steps) with his reference to the ability to “hear a single note in midst of numberless sounds” as a scream-at-you meta-referent demanding registration. Or Temple Grandin's crashing-in generative-empathic capacity to see flash-at-you cow-curves in Einstein-Minkowski curved spacetime and Lorentz-contracting Luneburg visual space. Or Yayoi Kusama's environment-to-skin neuro-patch-allover paresthesia tactile-polymorphism (analogue to taste-polymorphism) tropology of M Theory's cosmotopology. A lot like what blind-autism/Asperger's must be, only the sound sensitivity, the color and image eidetic visualization, the crashing-in cross-modal correlation scream-at-yous flash-at-yous (often with related-element complete memory-store dump to memetime-slow-down awareness: _µT_m-come-on is retrograde-inversion of quantum quenching at hologramic memory “disking”) are not with regard to the outer object-world, but, rather, are gap-jumps between speakable ₁T₂-language denotations and what J. S. Bell connoted with the signifier “unspeakable in quantum mechanics” -- i.e., those _µT_m-logically-valued nesting-foam aspects/shells/energy-levels of All-That-Is. From Russellian logical atomism perspective, _µT_m-valued whatever are frank cognitive terata. I've long held, and periodically expressed, the hypothesis that childhood onset idiopathic epilepsy and ASD (autism spectrum disorders) are “epiphenomenal” to the especially-well-endowed infant's struggle against glutamatergic prescriptive enculturation and associated memetime induction and the involved cognitive cut-off (by quantum quenching of intermolecular electron transport and spinor-hypertemperature analogs in free-electron gases like the pi-electron gas core of intraneuronal DNA: Grandin spin-state being the acting out of a resonance effect, just as was, in inverted form, my having to sleep with the sole of one foot flat on the floor to stop the far-from-equilibrium presyncope vertigo which persisted uninterruptedly from my being “caught” on the gas-spinor's cognitive spin-off: see the last scene of The Moon of Hoa Binh, our novel, for an account of the role this acting out played in “axiooooomitizing” Musculpt manifold vis-à-vis the Gödel-numbering of Gödel numbers) of access to _µT_m-logically-valued processing (memetime-ordered memory store being synonymous with The Quench -- simulated by the cow-Grandin Cinch). I've also expounded the idea that all, absolutely all, symptomology of mental illness is conversion/acting-out of some mathematical-biophysics property suppressed/modified, and thus involved in etiology of the illness -- insofar as the illness is an illness. Is this a route into higher pure mathematics for those mathematically uneducated? I've always thought so. Hammer those witches! What, according to this notion, has been mistakenly attributed to a derivative of matrimony, i.e., the “schizophrenogenic mother”, has actually been due to the electrochemical “weight” of the patrimony.

Ah, this Der Spiegel interview allows me to further explicate where it is I would disagree with George Soros: “'Merkel Is Leading Europe in the Wrong Direction'”, 13 February 2012. Quoting the interview:

SPIEGEL: But it was the abundance of “cheap money” that was at the core of the last financial crisis. Would we not repeat the same mistake if we pledged billions of fresh money to countries in crisis?

Soros: I know it sounds as though we are repeating exactly the same mistake. But let's compare the situation on the global financial markets to a car that is skidding. When a car is skidding, you must first turn the wheel in the same direction as the skid. And only when you have regained control can you then correct the direction. We went through a 25-year boom in the global economy. Then came the crash in 2008. The financial markets actually collapsed, and they had to be put on artificial life support through massive state intervention. The euro crisis is a direct continuation or consequence of the 2008 crash. This crisis isn't over yet and we will have to spend more state money in order to stop the skidding. It is only afterward that we can change the direction. Otherwise we will repeat the mistakes that plunged America into the Great Depression in 1929. Angela Merkel simply doesn't understand that.

By all means, don't abruptly remove the life-support apparatuses, and use dialysis machines as required. But George Soros employs the skidding car simile, and emphasizes that system changes should take place after rectification, not simultaneously therewith, because the changes he contemplates are not really substantial fundamental changes -- nothing like, for instance, a bottom-up multipoint-initiated implementation of m-logically-valued LETS nesting foams while maintaining integrity-residuals of the existing system as long as is possible. Ice on the road left unsalted and direction of travel are wrong; nothing, in principle, amiss with the means of conveyance. The existing global system qua system, Soros believes, works, the EMU being a special case thereof; it's only that behaviors of the actors and institutions need to be better supervised and regulated, that there need to be invasive, i.e., non-market, enforcement mechanisms, that some fairly minor, as regards framework determining conditions, structural modifications must be made, like, say, using IMF SDRs as international reserve currency, and that, in the EMU special case, “euro bonds and a new EU fiscal compact” are required. I, in contrast, believe the system hasn't worked, doesn't work, and can't possibly work -- nor could any other quasi-fixed rule-system -- in face of the massive infusion of quantum-based technologies, and the gathering storm of negative feedbacks the system-that-hasn't-worked is sustaining and will continue to sustain, at slime-molded ballooning intensity and density, as the multidimensional planetary crisis unfolds, largely as self-originated by the system that hasn't, doesn't, won't, and couldn't possibly work.

I have seen no evidence that F. A. von Hayek assimilated Jan Lukasiewicz, and not having done so there was no way for him actually to have synthesized the quantum measurement and chronotopology imports of Hugh Everett, III, with the “instrumental inference” of Adolph Lowe. And not having arrived at such a synthesis, he had nothing really adequate to say about Milton Friedman's monetarism. Were there a private global monetary system, by what mechanisms would markets sustain a quasi-equilibrium state with regard to subsystem-system-supersystem monies-credits creation/withdrawal? Supply-and-demand equilibration? Supply of and demand for what? Here is a nice rendition of the standard answer (see: “The Fallacy of the Money Supply”, William L. Anderson, The Free Market, The Mises Institute, Vol. 21, No. 6). Quoting the article:

In a private money economy, I can increase my personal supply of money in one of two ways. The first is to “buy” money through the sale of my productive services -- or, what we simply call a “job.” The second would be to manufacture it myself. For example, if I owned a gold mine, I either could sell the gold on the open market or transform the gold into money directly.

In the first case, I would not be adding to the overall amount of money within an economy, but simply engaging in a process in which money would be transferred from others to me. In the second I would be adding to the overall supply, which means the effects would be different, depending upon how much money I create. If I “buy” money by performing productive services in an open market, I simply have exchanged my services with someone who pays money for them, conceivably leaving both of us better off through gains from trade.

In the second case, by creating more money, I am able to use that money directly to purchase services from others. Over time, the value of money will decrease, which ultimately results in an increase of money prices of goods. However, the system has built-in brakes. First, the supply of my gold will be finite, thus serving as an upper bound upon what I can create. Second, as the value of gold as money decreases, the opportunity costs of using gold for other uses also will change, as the value of gold as money will fall relative to those other uses. This will change my incentives for how I use my gold, whether for money or other uses like jewelry.

Supply of and demand for what? The answer given is gold. And what is the ultimate “action directive” -- to use the terminology Lowe employed in On Economic Knowledge -- the market supply-and-demand dynamic uses to price-inform/induce this equilibration process? The standard answer is again provided by Anderson:

In a regime where money is used, individuals seek to increase their own personal supply, since it permits them to purchase more goods.

The ultimate action directive is: abide by the maximization principle, i.e., maximize the quantity of goods at one's direct and indirect disposal (dictating micro-to-macro unending growth). Fundaments of this private global “system”, then, would be gold and the maximum principle: all modulations, so to speak, would be [sub}ordinate to these key signatures of the system. Are these fundaments adequate to guarantee a synergistic interface between human and natural systems, particularly in this era of looming resource depletions? Even early into the J-shaped population growth and resource utilization curves, say, 2000 years ago, when population of the planet was approximately 300 million, these fundaments could not, in principle, have been adequate to creation and maintenance of such an interface, nor could they have precluded movement through the curves of the Js. Are the “built-in brakes” gold would impose strong enough to constrain the maximum principle, and, if so, how well then would the market supply-and-demand dynamic function if its ultimate action directive were thus undermined? And what of a theory of transition between government money and private money? The theory I see most on offer is basically indistinguishable, in principle, from the crash capitalization more or less imposed on Russia after collapse of the U.S.S.R. After all, not all of us own a gold mine. And those who do, were they to follow the maximum principle and engage in the “economic behavior” dictated by the ultimate market action directive, would, at the very least, become oligarchs inculcating oligopolies insuring global resource allocation patterns inimical to levels of functional integration construable as a synergistic interface between human and natural systems. Is the economically-arbitrary quantity (whatever the upper bound is) of gold available, planet Earth, an adequate autopoietic self-regulator of growth, not to mention of organization absent unending growth? Could any mere upper-bound as a systemic property qua property (economic-engine governor) function as an adequate autopoietic self-regulator? Not even hardly. What would be such? With regard to what ultimate should the market supply-and-demand dynamic price-inform/induce? Supply of and demand for what? Quantum-composite of total capital stock, planet Earth? Ney. As vonHayek intuited, but, likely for the reasons stated above, did not pursue in depth: the “time-shapes” of the quantum-composite of total capital stock, planet Earth. Why this distinction (the time-shapes being more and more accurately characterized by better and better applications of instrumental inference)? Because those time-shapes are what could generate (see the many discussions of “operator-time” given on this website, and links provided) the autopoietic operators by which the maximum principle could be fine-grain modulated-articulated such that the required synergistic interface could be created and maintained. This generation and modulation-articulation would involve implementation from the bottom up of m-logically-valued LETS e-nesting foams defined over fractal e-boundaries. As regards “built-in brakes”, let it be noted that the additional costs imposed by currency nesting-foams and m-value stack placed upon a given currency's base-state would be “built-in brakes” à la the viscosities associated with fractal-entrapment band-pass. Moreover, these additional costs would constellate a functional equivalent to a Tobin Tax on financial transactions -- except that this “tax” would be no-tax, and would not be centrally mandated, centrally collected, centrally policed, centrally dispersed. “Growth and repair processes”, under this system, would be “appropriate-scale” localized -- like in organic systems generally. It perhaps should be stipulated that these ideas do not constitute a Bastiat Economic Harmonies legacy theory (see: “Bastiat's Legacy in Economics”, Jorg Guido Hulsmann, The Quarterly Journal of Austrian Economics, 4:4, Winter 2001, pp. 55-70), if for no other reason than the “m-value stack placed upon a given currency's base-state” precludes property with simple-identity and insures that all property will have quantum “non-simple identity” -- to use parlance of discourse upon the quantum measurement occasion (recognizing, to employ a non-consensus interpretation of Schrödinger's wave-function, that the m-values of the stack would function like “pilot wave-guides”). Consider Elliot-wave guides relative to Kiel School etiology of cyclicity and growth as inter-sectoral disaggregation/aggregation. Is cyclicity inimical to growth? Is it integral thereto? Is the standard econometric interpretation of velocity to be believed -- not to mention acceleration and time rate of change of acceleration? Contemplate “From Atlas To Capital -- Everyone Is Shrugging”, ZeroHedge's “review” of Mark Spitznagel's “Capital Shrugged”, Project Syndicate, 16 February 2012. Quoting Zero Hedge:

The velocity of money (the frequency at which money is spent, or GDP relative to base money) continues to plunge to historic lows. No wonder monetary policy has had so little impact. Capital, the engine of economic growth, sits idle -- shrugging everywhere.

Is capital the engine, or is it the fuel, or is it the info-conveyor? When velocity is handled as “GDP relative to base money”, what is filtered out, renormalized? Ongoing, moment-to-moment inter-sectoral disaggregation/aggregation? What is filtered out, renormalized, under accelerations/decelerations, under time rates of change of accelerations/decelerations as conventionally construed in econometric behavior equations (insofar as these equations concern themselves with acceleration and time rate of change of acceleration)? These are time-order questions and they require time-order answers -- such as, answers rooted in F. A. von Hayek's the “time-shapes of total capital stock”. Are there ways to get what has been filtered out, renormalized, back into the market interface between human and natural systems (not just into equation sets)? Yep, you bet there is: the m-values of the stack (upon LETS currency base-state) would function like “pilot wave-guides” over “clocks within clocks within clocks”, to use David Bohm's characterization of quantum mechanics. No transcendental intrusive Author of memetime-evolutionary natural processes; by temporal curl, [sub}stantial authoresses.

Adumbrations of the long-forecasted global economy shut-off conditions of egress upon PW1 (how could the dollar cease being the reserve currency if advent of PW1 prevents it from crashing? and for a different view see the VDO entitled, “GOLD 1980 Vs. Today”, posted by FutureMoney Trends, 17 February 2012): a SWIFT kick (see: “US, Europe look at fast but risky penalty on Iran”, Julie Pace and Anne Gearan, AP, 14 February 2012; and “Iran poised for big nuke jump”, George Jahn, AP, 18 February 2012) in butt of the joke global economy has become, and potential boon to black transfer systems of the informal shadow economy. For context, see these must-read pieces: “A Very Different Take On The 'Iran Barters Gold For Food' Story”, Zero Hedge, 9 February 2012; and “Russia, Iran Proceed With Bilateral Trade, Drop Dollar…”, Zero Hedge, 8 January 2012. JFK QEs the New Frontier; LBJ “guns + butter” kills BW1; Nixon defaults on the gold value of post-WWII global inflation; Nixon-Faisal petrodollar recycling sets up BW2/EMU -- and its ultimate collapse. Not a question of the U.S.A. paying more for oil, uh, uh, for everything; it's a question of it paying something! -- while Greece, caught in remembrance of things past, is forced to pay everything! and the derivatives schemata hang on the CDS scheme dangling from a hangnail named Greece (see for excellent explication: “How Greece could Take Down Wall Street”, Ellen Brown, Global Research, 21 February 2012). Gregory Bateson's “double-bind” theory of offensively going on the strategic defensive: in order to save the dollar, we had to destroy it. As great walls in the global bloc-up continue to form, those seeking to profit or preserve, by recourse to gold, choose to court confiscation behind this or that wall on multiple pretexts, terrorism charges being one (already, in the U.S., having more than seven days food storage in pantry is a terrorist act). Even if the real problem is nation-states accepting gold at their lemonade stands, individuals will be targeted by conversion-disorder spite. In Bao Ninh's The Sorrow of War, there are passages wherein the character is described as experiencing “identity-transparency” to a significant level of elaboration. In the original Vietnamese, the character is poetically described as experiencing thisthat, whereas in the English translation the character is described as experiencing as if thisthat. The translators had never experienced thisthat, so, as far as they could tell, the correct translation was “as if thisthat”. Several thousand years of such translations have played a significant role in quenching human conscious cognitive capacity for elaborate ontic experience of identity-transparency -- and, I maintain, this quenching is deeply involved in etiology of modern mass warfare. During the Viet Nam war, some American intelligence personnel (e.g., David Marr) observed that VC units, altogether cut off from commo with their opcon, nonetheless continued to act as if they were receiving commo. I have long argued that such units were receiving “commo” -- in contrast to cutthroat-contract partnering/bridging in a Nash-equilibrium adversarial system, by exculpatory animistic identity-transparency, the very same “non-simple identity” that post-Being-John-Malkovich Hollywood obsessively conversion-disorders upon, and which anti-pagans regard a culpable expression of demonacracy in InjunCuntry Weltnetz. Plug in the dissembler; cop a demurral! Mind out of time; not, with Shakespeare, memetime out of mind. Step by step, in pouring a spacetime gate foundation, GMO an anaphylactic final solution set to the overpopulation superset. Season of the Witch. This fulmination of the collective psychosis has only just begun. It must be realized that Them are not thinking; Them are being thought -- thought by collective unconscious archetypal event gradients, aka asuras (the best insights as regards these I've seen are provided in Sri Aurobindo's Letters on Yoga, a couple of extraordinary volumes). Dick's Minority Report targeted-adverts and The End of Violence by satellite/drone-targeting of DNA fingerprints, clearly, are no expressions of identity-transparency, but of suppressions thereof. Popular culture and black psyche traces-tells -- identified by Jungian association-experiment “active imagination” methodology (“if the collective psychosis is writ small as my personal neurosis, then markers thereof are reads on unfulfilled collective needs”: a principle informing my introspective activities arrived at in 1963 whilst reading and rereading Modern Man in Search of a Soul under assignment by Prof. Abdul Aziz Said, Intro to World Politics, AU/SIS) -- of the constellated thematic contents of the presenting subliminal material are the predictors of the forecast model employed here.

A point of opposition to resurrection of the gold standard made by a person advocating such resurrection (see: “In Advance Of A Gold Standard, A Look At Gold Stocks vs. Flows”, Keith Weiner, Zero Hedge, 15 February 2012):

…detractors of the gold standard say that there is not enough gold for modern production and trade.

And they would be right! Most businesses make a small margin. They buy their inputs such as raw materials, labor, tooling and other consumables, and they sell their product for a little more. In any competitive market, margins are thin. Therefore most companies will never have the capital to buy their inputs for cash (and even for those few who could, this would be an inefficient use of capital). And then what happens when technological change allows a new business to insert itself into the supply chain? The supply of gold coins would have to expand, which is clearly not feasible. Or else a new business could not be added to the supply chain. This problem is intractable. It does not go away when the economy grows larger, technology improves, production becomes more sophisticated, or markets interconnect globally.

I am more than merely skeptical of the proposition that gold-coin flows would solve this problem. Not only would a gold standard be grossly impotent in face of the “big issues” (see, for instance, page one of this two-page article: “Global suicide 2020: We can't feed 10 billion”, Paul B. Farrell, The Wall Street Journal's MarketWatch, 14 February 2012: solvable by them with test-tube grown stem-celled globaloney antipasto proledibles celloed for the corporatacracy's slave-labor clonelines? or better done by resurrecting Lijiang organics?), it would be similarly inadequate relative to many “little” issues. And the only possible monetary regimes seen are fickle fiat paper, God is Golden, and chaos theory as Luciferian: “James Richards: Paper, Gold or Chaos?”, ChrisMartenson, 17 February 2012. According to my _µT_med headlights, the questions are not to be ₁T₂-dimmed to: plan or no-plan? gold standard or no gold standard? gold-exchange mechanism or no gold-exchange mechanism? commodity referencing or no commodity referencing? fractional-reserve lending or no fractional-reserve lending? interest lending or no-interest lending or no lending? My I has itself observed (and noted variously on this website over the years) that a global return to a gold standard would have producing-wound-components power-loss consequences, on a quantum-based-technology swilling planet (Russellian logical-atomism-type binary transistors now successfully engineered on the single-atom scale level for integrated circuit positioning relative to prospective so-called, i.e., no _µT_m about them, quantum processors running faster ₁T₂-logical computers: see “Transistor Made Using a Single Atom May Help Beat Moore's Law”, Reg Gale, The San Francisco Chronicle, 21 February 2012), similar to the types of hysteresis loss and other comparable effects Europe has sustained by self-induction to EMU -- which could/would be disastrous at the present planetary conjuncture. See “A Primer on the Euro Breakup”, Jonathan Tepper, Variant Perception, 16 February 2012 (if you are deemed by VP a “security error”, read Mish's excerpts and critique at “…Does the Euro Act Like a Gold Standard?”, GETA, 20 February 2012: geta = high-steppin' clogs worn to wade expanses of mud) for interesting discussions of issues involved.

One little-discussed aspect of the legalization of what is presently being increasingly deemed biopiracy (for background, see the VDO: “Open Seeds: Biopiracy and the Patenting of Life”, Global Research TV, 15 February 2012) by the 1980 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Diamond v. Chakrabarty 447 U.S. 303 allowing the patenting of living organisms is the dampening/staunching of research into the quantum properties of the DNA molecule which accompanied rise of the genetic-engineering industry.

Yes, perhaps I should clarify. In using a numbering scheme that includes T12M, I am not referring to “trailing 12 months basis” or EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), i.e., earnings recast to reflect normal operation by removing positive and negative onetime costs and revenues. The earnings-recast I refer to is that which maps earnings' logical-value properties, and hence, their subsystem-system-supersystem quantum-composite state-functions, maps (essential to adequately addressing the “big issues”) which cannot be made under monetary systems employing only ₁T₂-currencies. One issue just short of being “big” is, as mentioned and linked above with respect to Adolph Lowe: “Can Planning be a Coherent Free Market Behavior”. Hugh Hendry of Eclectica recently observed (see: “Keeping an Eye on Wealth Creation”, Barron's interview conducted by Leslie P. Norton, 18 February 2012):

China's swollen public sector is directing asset allocation, rather than pursuing profit maximization. They see [their system] as a success. But it creates a bubble, which can prove quite damaging.

We must first observe that, under prevailing non-Chinese market conditions and non-Asian crony-capitalism as they exist in the U.S. and Europe, rather large bubbles have recently formed as spindrift of the pursuit of profit maximization. Bubble economy is not only epiphenomenal of public sector directing; it may, for instance, involve profit-maximizing collusions between central authorities and members of the point-1%. The actual and only really real reason Greece has become a mega-problem for the global Lebenswelt is the cascade-physics built into existence of a quadrillion slammers in derivatives created by collusions of CAs with the Mspoint-1% (as infantile-psychology conversion-disorder displacements of the fiberbundle arithmetics of skew-parallels of the internal dimensions of risk over exchange-unit mapping manifolds in logical-value function spaces). Macro-actors and meso-actors and micro-actors can chose to attempt to direct asset allocations and/or maximize profits here or there, but not to chose to chose to chose to chose unto factorials between either/or-both/and of nesting foams of intra-inter-extra-systemic Everettian “relative-states” of assets at allocation and/or profits at earning as mapped over vonHayek “time-shapes of total capital stock” (not to explicitly mention dynamical variables over same). That not tagged becomes no basis for an action-directive, market or otherwise, and thus is not cognoscible even by the cognoscente. Planning, public sector and corporate, transpires extra-supersystem (politics between state managers; politics of the firm's management) when, optimally, it should transpire infra-subsystem (spontaneously localized m-scenarios computer gaming, on the e-commons, of indicators -- technical to “quality of life” -- tagged to, and to be tagged to, m-values stacked upon base-states of variously-backed Lukasiewiczian LETS e-currencies defined over nesting foams of fractal e-boundaries). Were this “should” fulfilled, there would be a process established by which increasingly adequate sets of incentives and sanctions would appear in price dynamics of markets such that relative-states and/qua time-shapes became integral to market action-directives implementing consensuated adaptation-choices made with respect to those externalites internal to economies and those externalities external to economies and imposed by nature. As regards the not nearly near “big” issue of a potential resurrection of a gold standard, Hendry, at the end of the interview, makes this statement: “The euro is nothing but a gold standard lacking flexibility, and all the onus is on private citizens to take the pain.”

Here is a fascinating article on the metapsychological bases of Nash game theory (see: “The Delicate Balance of Terror -- How Neoclassical Economics Deploys Psychotic Reasoning to Explain Human Behavior”, Philip Pilkington, Naked Capitalism, 16 February 2012). Consider that minimum permissible distance in personal space, and associated notion of privacy, is not a human universal. To wit, when Hmong tribal people were moved from Laos to the U.S. and housed in a tenement building located in San Francisco's Tenderloin district, the first thing they did upon settling in was remove all the interior doors (so as to simulate the long-house sociality they were accustomed to). Properties of personal space vary culture to culture and over memetime within cultures (as anyone who has experienced changing personal space during, say, the half-dozen and more decades of postwar Japan, should know: as, for instance, residential architecture became ever more Westernized, and the local sento public bath was ₁T₂-bifurcated by a MacArthur-dictated wall separating the sexes, then was progressively replaced by more and more in-home showers-baths, minimum permissible distance increased in lockstep; an earlier-initiated variable of this distancing change involved a progressive shift from pentatonic-tuned to diatonic-tuned accompaniment to Japanese-language song, thus Westernizing the involved tonal space and subliminal psychological imports thereof, e.g., operative notion of identity qua identity). Nash game theory is one action-based sociology, and the logic of interaction is ₁T₂-only. Nash assumes absolutely-in-so-far-as-distinct actors, and the individual actor's bargaining strategizing involves estimation of the probability amplitudes as to prospective actions of other such actors (Nash, thus, conforms to the consensus interpretation of Schrödinger's wave-function and the standard treatment of observer-state/object-system interactions at measurement). Pilkington, via Modern Political Economics by Varoufakis, Haveli, and Theocrakis, via Philip Mirowski's Machine Dreams, and via the film A Beautiful Mind, however, inverts this actual Nashian case, under the mistaken (consensus?) assumption that John Nash was projecting a paranoid schizophrenic's Weltanschauung into The Game and, by extension, into The Great Game -- when, in reality, had there been no invasive psychiatric intervention (analogue to the state's intervention which Pilkington discusses à la Kundera), Nash's acting-out very likely would have greatly facilitated his reaching a Lukasiewiczian understanding of Schrödinger.

I'm no Reacher! Real reachers carry nothing. I've always lived out of the same two Samsonite suitcases my mother bought me in 1963 upon sending me off to college: still good as new. In close approach to age 70, I have no trouble understanding how I currently know there is no profession I know of I could have tolerated participating in. What I cannot fully explicate to myself, however, is how I knew that in 1965 at age 20. Though I'm hunting no goodwill, I am telling the truth! “Ah, yes,” the Third Voice makes its entry. In a non-selfsame multiverse? If, as is the case, whatnot once construed a universe is now scientifically supposed a multiverse, what orders of truth-value are tellable therein? Occam's razor hardly ever Dedekind cuts it in the real multiverse. Spatial universes are not juxtaposed spatially (how boring that would be!); they're superposed chronotopologically by virtue of temporal curl being a logical-value operator. Think of Buddhist “dependent origination” originally understood relative to “one mind moment” -- chronotopologies higher than those linear having to do with Zen no-mind moment, “moment” here with reference to temporal curl, axes of rotation, inertia, and so on -- such that incarnations are not sequential or parallel, they are Maya, i.e., glutamatergically-etched ₁T₂-ed consensuated illusions, folies en masse. All That Is is very very non-simple. That's why temporal operations must be Gödel numbered! Creation in 7 days, one of rest? What does “creation” mean? What does “7” mean? What does “days” mean? What does “rest” mean? You, sir, are hereby declared in contempt of cosmos! And if “one” -- heh-heh-heh! -- were Umwelt-identified with ₁T₂-logical legal procedurals, to which value of the Planck length would “one” go to protect truth-tellability? If the rule of law is being done away with, as it clearly is, there must be a good reason: in order to save truth-value, we had to destroy it. Let me here state up front a personal prejudice: largely because of my experience as an intelligence analyst, I trust no document unless I have mastered the whole archive from which it was cherry-picked, I regard no institutional testament as transparently unfabricated/unforged/unplanted unless by direct personal knowledge + search I know that the contrary is the case. O, my word! There are so many renormalizations in legal code, there are, aren't there, deary? The very idea of proximal-cause rescaling the initial and boundary conditions on probable cause is such a Newtonian nudging approach to distancing -- itself a retrograde, if not also an inversion -- actual ₁T₂-guilt-or-innocence that there is no wondering over the utter lack of interest in ultimates transcending jury determination -- only wonder over the ₁T₂-paradox this counter-Newtonian use of Newtonian nudging in fact is in fact is in fact. Unless probable cause is in camera appearance of the Copenhagen Interpretation, that Witch Bull of the 20th century. Or take renormalization of the jury pool. There has never been a jury of peers: what vetted middle-class housewife, what vetted salaryman is a peer of the defendant sitting in the dock? None. Authentic peers could not pass muster. Belief in efficacy of countervailing forces, in validity of Locke's use of Newton's vector sums to justify the franchise, and in justice achieved by an adversarial justice system necessarily involves giving credence to the many elements of the same set of metaphysical assumptions entertained in the game theory of Nash equilibrium, which Pilkington (as linked immediately above), by direct implication, argues are those exemplifying paranoid schizophrenia. Or is it that mass behavioral expressions of collective schizoid paranoia have arisen due to how [deva}stating quantum mechanics has been to the assumption set at issue? The only thing sustaining contents of this set is the [man}dated “classical limit”, itself sustained by the “mathematical” procedures of renormalization. If ₁T₂-logically-constituted “reality” is the absolute height of glutamatergically-etched collective fantasy, i.e., Maya, what does, say, “divergence error” mean? Does it mean the multiple personality disorder Hollywood obsesses over? No. It means Nature has just invoked another order of logical-value. What does renormalization achieve? Concealment of the logical-value order-type naturally invoked. Blindside! Having, say, filtered biological significance of the quantum properties of DNA, is this case, uh, “Experts fear diseases 'impossible to treat'” (Jeremy Laurance, The Independent, 20 February 2012), actually far worse than suspected? What is the likelihood that the human species, long engaged in anthropogenic modifications of myriad sorts, will be hugely blindsided by Nature, given all the renormalization goin' on? Which is not to speak of unknown unknowns, only those known.
