The Aggridant

Signal to noise, Shannon guys. Signal to noise.

Discrimination in many dimensions.

Get to work.

Hempel's "nomic nexus" is Web 2.0, get it? How far does it go before it escapes into the future? Or how far until we resonate it with B-reality?

Looking at a world sociogram of conversations would be interesting, and could provide hierarchical anonymity in the right hands.

The aggridant social system is the one which makes the best choices for everyone and has a decent transmitter!

Action Maze Design Criteria in Cloud Boundary interface (membrane viz. found in Lukasiewicz-Kirchhoff Machines). Variable: reaction time and correlational analyses with other instances down the maze. This would show "RT bandwidth" which seems to me to be a missing link.

Design could randomize maze nodes along arbitrary axes. B-values, perhaps, for the fascinated psychologist-mathematican-historian-transcender!

And with the patented "Cannon Homeostatic Bonnet" it all makes perfect sense when you change over to the torsion pendulum. Huh?

Clara for those who understand and are bored. What would her Z score be, I wonder?

Let's extend suicide bombing into it's covering law. The whole thing started when Lord Bubba tried to teach them about the boundary functions.

He told them that to infiltrate the other side and therefore insure a positive entry, you first have to atomize yourself. Lord Bubba meant that you had to go into the future by spreading your spiritual self thin, not your body.

The Mechanomorphs picked this up and are now treating it like the
rag in the mouth of the dog. And they have been convinced that
the whole thing is about getting attention, regardless of value.

Like Maslow would say, if you blow yourself up, the game is over.
Any mentor who counsels his student to call attention to an issue by blowing himself up is necessarily a sociopath because he shows no concern for human things. He is in a world of his own, quite delusional. Yet he still has influence.

A single word brought you here, and it will prove to be a uniquely important word. That is because the word, "aggridant," is a nidus.

It is possible to trace the word from today back through Abraham Maslow, and further back to W. L. Dove. Similarly, one can trace "self-actualization" back to Kurt Goldstein. By crossing corpae with vocabulary words, piles are formed around the words. These piles can be studied in terms of differential gravities in the holarchic space.

So in terms of the History of the Future of the Web, the word tree of "aggridant" can be traced exactly (as of July, 2009) to Dove, so "Dove" and "aggridant" and Maslow and other buzz on "aggridant", etc., gets wired back to the nidus.

In Web 3.0 terms, an aggridant is a "complete" (as in metric space where the tails of the asymptotic subsystems stay inside the membrane) representation of a sub-group in a uniqueness hierarchy or holarchy. It is a vector space centered on the nidus surrounded by vocabularistic clouds which will eventually tie humans together in the Interocitor. But this is under wraps at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

Chomsky on BBC saying that "best way" is from below (bottom up). Implies that real change "never" comes from above, because all of these people are rotten bastards. (Vulgar Marxists).
This denies the fact that virtuous leadership is possible. Chomsky seems to forget that he can be a humanist and not know it, just like one can be happy and not know it. One just needs a map, as Colin Wilson so aptly maintains.

Dichotomizing is a disease. Dichotomy transcendence is the key, but we can step forward into growth (up) or backward into safety (down). Looks like we might be learning what to do with the word "species."

Problem seems to me is lack of teachers' abilities to spot the early sociopath and pay him special mind. If he is also highly intelligent, he'll wind up as Cheney-type. Our "government" is our semi-permeable membrane, which is supposed to keep out all the bastards and stinkers. Once they get in, they can rise to the top like anyone else, but their Weltanschauung is kaput.
See the "Puritan Gift" book.

What this means is giving our kids MAPS--Cognitive Maps--of healthy people, not sick ones. Everybody knows about Uzi's before they learn about B-memes. We live in language. Language is our gas and there is a stoichiometry for it. There could be a meaning sieve, etc. Metalanguage represents the umwelt and must not be forgotten. But most of all, show healthy examples as well as dystonic ones. Obviously, we've let a hell of a lot of crooks run the show of late. Enter, the Orthomentor, cracking us back into shape no matter how painful the fun. (One must ask about ineffective programs here in terms of Maine, etc.) Columbia is now good example of total waste of resources. Need to spend the money on educating the young about how to have a B-life.

Nice quote from Maslow's "Politics 3" for today:

"In other words, all of this political and social and management machinery can be deduced from humanistic psychology."

2008-03-18T13:57:00.000-07:00

Obama is really talkng about species eupsychian politics or at least species politics because he stands for dichotomy transcendence. He gives the Zeitgeist balls in this respect.

Trick is to just tip the balance, because at the growing tip is the decision to step forward into growth or backward into safety. "Politics 3" challenges today's youth in re Obama just as it did in the sixties. We can't afford to make the same mistakes because it takes a lifetime to change things.

Must see what Colin Wilson is up to these days in terms of sniffing the ether.

Limen Calculus and Stoichiometry in Synesthesial Space

Important to flush out the curves. If there is a stoichiometric form to the liminal differences, then this might lead to crossover patching.

In terms of the Obama-Clinton contrasts, note Maslow's quote: "You can either step forward into growth or step back into safety." Risk assessment.

Early adopters and pioneers are at the growing tip. Mechanomorphic cripples are a regressive force.

The remaining THREE candidates might indicate a desire for a third party. This would
be the Eupsychian Party.

If we're being pushed backward into safety by realizing who is in charge of everything,
does this mean a migration to the boonies? It's no Israel in terms of eupsychia,
but there's no bullseye over us on Google Earth, either. There's nothing like a
quiet mountain valley where you can leave your keys in your car in town. So does that
mean that creativity will blossom in small towns?

I think I'll settle on this blog for the primary Maslow connection because it's easy to find for those interested in viewing social systems with a Maslowian lens. Just remembering the word "aggridant" will get you here in pretty short order.

Core philosophy:

Maslow : Social Psychology :: Einstein : Physics.

Some of you will understand that notation immediately; others will not. The MAT can cause a stroke, but is probably necessary in this new environment.

Anyway, the AGGRIDANT is really a class. It defines the biologically superior and dominant person. This is the best person for a particular job, all the way up and down the social system. Note the word "biological." And listen to Maslow on this.

If the web itself is to actualize new revolutions, then it must be seen as a web-qua-tool (interesting: Webquat and WebQuaTool are semi-meaningful strings and none of the hogs have grabbed them, just like Orthomentoring and probably all kinds of posito-linguistic combinations. I will do my best to track these in order to see what history will tell us). This means that we must see the web as a tool of triangulation and convergent thinking.

Using the web as a social tool (marketing) is like tuning a shortwave radio. This implies that we must first construct noise filters, narrowband, and attenuators for browsers in order to reach those who are tuning for the B-web.

There is also the chemistry of the webspace. For example, with neo-capitalism on one end and anarchy/socialism on the other (?) what causes the social surface tension to break and form globules versus what is catalytic to hierarchical integration? If we believe in punctuated sysetms and know a little chemistry and stoichiometry, we can make a transmitter into the future. This, I suppose, is euteleological efficiency, or B-power.

This is the focus of the nidus Eupsychia.org.

Objective: Popularize Maslow
Goal: Experimental Eupsychian Town
Marketing: Reality Crap Shows and eupsychian foundations (make money for toilet paper, etc.).
Method: T-Group Hierarchical Categorization (nidus bifurcitui morbosa).
Possible outcome: Eupsychian Town Under Attack (Israel)

Servant of Chaos convinced me that a public notepad is a step into growth.

I'm an old man with an old vi toolkit, so my web presence is of the boiler room type. Please excuse my blunders with and cut-paste. The objective is euminimalism! Minimalism with mojo.

Any other blogs you see here are pretty much scrap heaps, but since orthomentoring is a new field of endeavor, I wanted to hook it to Maslow, who will end up being the orthomentor for the 21st century.

Zeroth Scratchpad - Where this adventure shall have begun

Guaranteed into Eternity with "CryoTrust Permanente 3.0"
Open source, virtue-driven, platform free, grid mirrored, and always lauging at you behind your back.

B-language could be extended into Web 3.0, etc. There are new spheres of being and meaning.
All good programmers understand elegance, for example, where the beauty comes from loop efficiencies and tuning kernels with Occam's razor.

No good future until everyone laughs.

The more bandwidth we get, the more crap we seem to stuff in the pipes and on the stacks. Why do we like bloat instead of substance? Only one doing it right seems to be Google. And Apple. They understand elegance, whereas Microsoft doesn't. Here is Theory Z at work. Microsoft is mechanomorphic. D-sites swindle us more and more. There is a special kind of disgust when you are baited and then tricked into giving up something in order to learn. There should be filters for the D-net. Monkeys, shiny coins, and idiots at the helm.

Funny: Hempel was right about the nature and limits of scientific understanding. We can now actually begin to fathom and manage the nomic nexus elegantis. Better pay attention to people like Maslow and Polanyi, who wondered about naming as creating new objects rather than classifying old ones.

.
There is a real danger in primary process writing in this new desktop environment. One has to disentangle associations. But these associations must fit into the nomic nexus if the thing is going to work. The idea is to triangulate and converge on the B-nidi, not
diverge into noise. Some of the new words people are making up are descriptors of snow we have yet to see,
which means they are noise. This ignores the Shannon-Weaver plugin to the stoichiometry.

Thing is with Chomsky and the others that the wonderful efforts aren't publicly placed in the hierarchy. We now could, and *should* be percolating talent in new ways and drafting people for certain jobs, etc. If something is factally clear, sound, virtuous, honest and helpful, why has it not been amplified for some and attenuated for others? Seems if we could move from aboutism to action, we would be a lot better off, but when the dominant-schlemiel types are overabundant like carpenter bees, it's hard not to retreat into safety. Who wants to get stung except the strong ones.

Point is about Chomsky and the others that they can't not care. I suppose there is a value-deprivation torture that only the sensitive ones can feel.

Maslow: [paraphrase] "...worry that the definition of neurotic is when a person *doesn't* show symptoms and should."

This necessarily defines us as a neurotic societyi, because we're showing no balls or neck sacks as we're being of being swindled out of a good future by dominant D-politicians. Only the B-man is sensitive enough and courageous enough to be called to arms.

Don't see what would be wrong with a little mesmerism. The Zoroastrians are disappearing just like the Blackfoot, so we had better get out the peace pipes and
talking sticks and listen carefully and keenly for the wisdom of the mentors. Point is that they see reality differently and we need that data to plug into the Orgone Boxes.

The driving pressure is there certainly. And the *only* way to be healthy is to point out lies and swindles by the schlemiels we have elevated into leadership positions everywhere. It's really unbelievable that it happened just like the name thing. How do we protect ourselves from these swindles?

The D-men get plenty of free rent in the brains of the many, because they're so easy to swindle. We had better learn to be honest about that and face up to it.
This forges a new tactic: B-swindling. This is the old thing about anon. gift giving and B-altruism (if that can be extended into the B-realm). The bigger the gift, the more "forceful" it can be in changing things. But only the B-men understand that. The D-men see it like the big penis, which they want to use as a history bat.

How to handle neurosis in Eupsychia. Truth-deprivation (lies)-->Paranoia, etc. Result is Durkheim's anomie, and maybe escape into net. So best thing to do is
to use the available tools and to have Buffet or
somebody set up a Cray farm with a sniffer for the
B-Umwelt! Why do we spend our money on expensive evil sniffers we want to sniff out good? Simple: we don't know how to tell the difference-->don't know our collective ass from a hole in the ground-->get swindled again. It doesn't look and feel like a swindle because they confiscated all of the C.W. Mills books one night while we were sleeping.

How 'bout a flash-buy on Maslow's "Eupsychian Management"? When Mentoring goes down one day, we
might want some comforting reading in the torture chambers the D-men have given us called airports.

Look, up in the sky......Truty, Justice and the American Way.

"Whata would Superman do?" If he takes his time to consult with J.R. Bob Dobbs and Howard Stern, he'll
not be able to catch that plane... He doesn't *need* to consult. For ten points, compare and contrast the humunculi of Superman and Dick Cheney.

Colin
Could test words against the B-sieve by testing their distribution in the B-value wordlist. Could the word be more instructive? Seems like we should go the
other way and reduce things, like replacing "write this to the file but leave my window just as it is" by ":w" but this would mean we would have to learn a new clucking sound.

Another example of a brain tumor in the neo-neo-cortex we call the web is the needless necessity of using six lines of code to do what I can do by this.
Did the crap come from the need to help? Makes the middle name swindle one of history's biggest jokes.
For example, who will fix it now?

Big problem is how to talk about the eugenics thing.

Infoshop News - The Clown at Midnight Lining up more vectors. We absolutely must learn to discriminate out the sociopaths, and to do this, we'll need to develop better eyes and noses and ears so we can sniff them out in the Umwelt before we are swindled yet again. Hell, countless people have just lost the use of their middle names right under our noses, without resistance. For some of us, it's an insult by the mechanomorphic shits and we would have told them--had we been consulted--that they could save the bytes by not adding layers and layers of meaningless goop to everything, gumming up the works because of their short-sightedness and abuse of power. Who said you could take my middle name away? If we don't catch it in the bud, it will creep up on us. The social stoichiometry and calculus of it takes into account that we are a minority. Look how easily we have been robbed of rich connections in cyberspace because we are no longer recognizable to those who knew us before.

Maslow quote on swindling not stopping good here.
