What is this Blog about?

I am currently exploring the value of developing the concept the Bridge and other related sites as a free public resource, and writing a series of ebooks on the subject .. while exploring/researching it as a Post Grad and designing various complimentarysoftware tools...
In this blog I explore techniques I have collected and developed for a social network space for people to Explore the bridge between Creative flow and Rational Thought".

"From the point of view of the larger planet, we proceed with an awareness that the whole system is far too complex or us to actually manage or control ....remember its a system that gave birth to us, so how then are we to interact in a way that is fruitfull?"

"Many of us have been trained perceive randomness as nothing but entropy, background 'noise' to be ignored, much as we are taught to treat the commons, yet the commons is the shared foundation of life...


The capacity to solve our problems is available , we are not goods in the hands of politicians and bankers...

Creativity

There are different forms...

1. Building block - Construction Based  (can be automated)
2. The Linguistic: Our category systems, built into our language systems and the stories we tell ourselves and others.. (our Discourse) (Susceptible to automation)
3. The Symbolic: Image based, susceptible to dualism be binary, our memory systems often use them
(susceptible to the spectacular image and media manipulation)

This blog is concerned mainly with:

4. The Emergent - is a product of the whole system, self-organises naturally, (personally, socially and ecologically)  the layered textured surface of perception  reconfiguring itself (complexity/chaos) (as such it is not easily  reducible or programmable, it is is a potential avenue of inherent /innate liberation beyond the dualisms, and potential control/manipulation of  1.2 & 3

(manifest in background noise/ natural layered textured surfaces, random movement and flow)

However the systems of control and inequality  (often manifest in 1,2 & 3) a have an interest in obscuring its essentially simple andeasily accessible  common nature


It appears that  need to protect the valuable forms that emerge from 4 necessitate the membrane/ protection of 1,2 & 3 such is the delicate balance, as only in understanding what harmony emerges from 4 can we understand the value and position of control methods  as manifest via 1,2 & 3
