DECENTRALIZED INTELLIGENCE. “Andrew Adamatzky has made significant strides in developing real applications for liquid computing (2019), fungal computing (2018), and slime-mold based “physarum machines” (2010). Unconventional computing expresses alternative modes of intelligence and demonstrates that a nervous system is not necessary to fuse sensorial inputs, process information, and make decisions.” https://lnkd.in/eb8yGxmV View in LinkedIn

MANY PATHS TO KNOWLEDGE. “According to Gurdjieff, the universe was created as an unending chain of systems bound by universal interdependence. In this cosmic process of ‘exchange of substances’ everything that exists is dependent on and connected to everything else; nothing is separate.” https://lnkd.in/ehHZqbyg View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this first of two weekends on the theme of cosmic magnetism. This remarkable force which Parker describes as a syndrome and likens it to an organism is still little understood except by what it does. When did it arise? Is it the same in the far extreme reaches of the cosmos? What is its role in living creatures? All open issues. https://lnkd.in/eYiqnNnc View in LinkedIn

CHICKENS AND EGGS. “In the very creation of space and time, which was created first, space or time? Or were they created together in the first place?” (Professor Matheus Pereira Lobo, a highly original thinker). https://lnkd.in/eQd6F24F View in LinkedIn

EPHEMERAL. “The quantum particles representing quantum fluctuations neither appear at set points nor last indefinitely, and the density (of quantum fluctuations) is expected to be translation invariant in the vacuum reference frame rather than in the diagonalised representation, if it fills any physical function at all.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

RATE NOT CONFIGURATION. “All that matters is the relative total rate and connections between the quantum particles rather than the way those are presented.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

TRASH BIN. “However, while a lattice picture is helpful, it is both misleading and strictly not necessary.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn

RIVER BANK. “Geometry in approximately flat space-times can be modelled as insulating boundaries to information flow.” https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/JHEP07(2019)140.pdf View in LinkedIn
