  • The Unbelievable Complexities of Music: Lenses, Ancient and Modern
    Drew, with a master's in ethnomusicology and a voracious interest in all things music, joins The Meaning Code today to open up the ancient view of music as relationships, balance, proportion. Through the lens of Aristoxenus and Boethius, we explore -memory as the mother of the muses -the original meaning of Harmonia as proportion and balance -relationships between notes in a melody -principles of Melos - realign, reharmonizes body, soul, mind -dunamis (function - power & potential) Music doesn't exist at any one time but between times. Memory fixes the past and perception leads to the future. Before Plato, all knowledge was in poetry form. Music of the Spheres or Harmony of the Cosmos? Music as an apologetic

  • Metamodernism, Transcending Critique, Optimal Degrees of Freedom and the Return of Board Games
    Brendan Graham Dempsey and Cory Barker help Karen to gain a greater understanding of Metamodernism. Brendan is writer, poet, farmer, and systems thinker. As Director of Sky Meadow Institute, he works on productively bridging the divide between science and spirituality. Cory has a Master of Arts in Social Science and Informatics and is working on a PhD with a research focus on applying big picture thinking to improved AGI design. He serves as President of the Archdisciplinary Research Center (Arc.voyage) If you haven't already seen it, I highly recommend my first conversation with Cory Barker as background (which explores the concept of moving from discipline, to interdisciplinary, transdisciplinarity and finally to archdisciplinarity as a method of solving intractable problems.) We also cover how the world works and other interesting things:-). https://youtu.be/LwqByLmk1AU?si=LqS2kXXfo4-Qj99_ Topics covered: (If anyone wants to turn this into timestamps, go for it.) AGI, LLM's, tokenization and statistical inference Computable functions related to development psychology The natural relations of Knowledge More efficient systems that take less energy to run The brain autonomously organizes information Universal classes of human experience Dynamic skill Theory, Kurt Fischer Reflexes, sensory motor, representations skills, pairing concepts and action/words, abstraction The Universal Learning Process Adaptive Complexity Coupling of an agent to its environment (wittedness) Variation and selective retention Autopoesis and cognition Coupling between elements and the formal systems Unlike other animals, we are not perfectly fitted to our environment, but are made for space Antagonism drives adaptation. We are not endlessly pliable Our linguistic component allows us to go off into abstract space The free energy principle, maximum freedom Think beyond our environments We advance on the basis of our previous equilibriums Ted Lasso and metamodernism Critique and transcend (the pattern of culture shock, also) Universal process of automation Cause and Effect Forming a stable system with a boundary space Cascades through the interior Universal process of concretion Creates a stake through the system The optical way to process info Free energy principal A set of expectations, a model that we hope will hold up and avoid surprise We continually update our model and that will minimize the distance between our expectation and the reality Anomaly drives hierarchical complexification How space affects equilibrium Turning point Ted Lasso and space Earnestness and Sincerity in the context of irony and cynicism Bill Tolbert, Action Inquiry A stage model of managerial styles postmodernism - ironist metamodern - a sense of coherence @ what is going on Understanding how things are relating to each other Arch modernism Entropy production is creative Alicia Juarrero Maximum complexity before it becomes chaos Randomness is not high in info Chaology - a study of the hidden order inside chaos, too difficult for us to understand at this point Metamodernism, transcending the critique of postmodernism
