INTERCONNECTED COSMOS. “This means that, within a nonequilibrium system of energy/matter flow/circulation, everything is connected to everything else through shared microcomponents flowing through and mediating the emergence, evolution, and transformation of diverse organizational forms comprising the system.” https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b View in LinkedIn

THE STRUCTURE PERSISTS. “That is, what is actually preserved and evolves over relevant timescales is an organization of relationships between interacting components (an organizational form) but not physical components comprising a given macrostructure. Members come and go, but the organization persists.” https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b View in LinkedIn

SECOND CONSEQUENCE. “Second, the emergence of macroscopic order is a highly nonlinear, cooperative process. When a critical threshold value of flow rate is exceeded, the system spontaneously self-organizes into interdependent and interconnected macrostructures-processes, in a phase transition-like manner. The macrostructures-processes emerging in far-from-equilibrium conditions are of a steady-state nature.” https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b View in LinkedIn

FIRST CONSEQUENCE. “First, a sufficiently intense flow of energy/matter through an open physicochemical system of interacting components naturally and spontaneously leads to the emergence of interdependent fluxes and gradients within the system, with concomitant dynamic compartmentalization of the components of the system in space and time.” https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b View in LinkedIn

CONSEQUENCES. “Several empirical generalizations discovered in studies of far-from-equilibrium systems are especially relevant for the discussion that follows.” https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues and concludes this weekend from last weekend on the fabulous paper about a non-equilibrium fractal universe. The considerable scope of this paper means that any attempt to briefly abstract it will be deeply flawed and I encourage those interested to carefully read the original, and to follow up with the author’s fascinating website. https://lnkd.in/eYJ_HetV View in LinkedIn

ELECTRON GRADIENTS. “I’m still thinking about this paper. That the chemical and physical structure of your entire body assists in gradient flows of electrons. From DNA to proteins, all exquisitely tuned to allow electrons to flow through. The body sung electric.” (Paper: https://lnkd.in/eskBjS7b). A thoughtful response to a fantastic paper by Alexi Kurakin. https://lnkd.in/ejk-pV_g View in LinkedIn

SUMMARY 3. “Photons move translationally in the environment of the electromagnetic field due to the rejection of the electromagnetic mass. The environment of photons is in thermal equilibrium with the environment of the electromagnetic field. Therefore, the speed of photons is equal to the speed of light - the thermal speed of the smallest particles of the field medium - gravitons.” https://lnkd.in/eftm7VFM View in LinkedIn

SUMMARY 7. “Streams of photons can create “optical vortices” and “twisting light”.” https://lnkd.in/eftm7VFM View in LinkedIn
