Dialogos of Eide/Home

  • The Stream Has Moved Forward.

    Socrates: “The past does not imprison us; it leaves a path behind.” Platohagel: While this is presented, I wanted your opinion on the relation we have been talking about with David Bohm and now here with Thomas Kuhn. While we did talk about creativity and its relationship to Dialogue which by the way I am…

  • The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas Kuhn

    Anomaly and the Emergence of Scientific Discoveries Kuhn now moves past his initial topic of paradigm to scientific discovery saying that in order for there to be a discovery, an anomaly must be detected within the field of study. He discusses several different studies and points out the anomaly that invoked the scientific discovery. Later…

  • The Wave of Memory

    Socrates: “The past does not imprison us; it leaves a path behind.” THE WAVE OF MEMORY From the past configuration, a wave begins to rise,Carrying what we once knew beneath our changing eyes.Memory holds the pattern, but does not hold it still,It flows into the present, becoming what it will. A question meets a question,…

  • David Bohm on Dialogue

    On Creativity and Perception Socrates: Yes, Platohagel. The Eskesthai piece “On Creativity and Perception” sits remarkably close to the Bohmian territory we have been developing—but I would make one important distinction: Bohm does not treat creativity merely as producing something new. He treats creativity as a change in the way an underlying order becomes perceptible.…

  • The Differences

    Phil:….yet more importantly it is only in difference that often times much is learned. IT is appropriate that such a point( self evident) in terms of “differences” is brought forward here for introspection, as a “inductive recognition of our journey’s into society and our pursuance of understanding it’s structure.” This allows us to move forward…

  • Using the Architecture of Disaster Capitalism

    I have read that 80% of the world do not have access to the Web. ) The Web has been largely designed by the developed world for the developed world. But it must be much more inclusive in order to be of greater value to us all. Tim Berners-Lee Speech before Knight Foundation-14 September 2008…

  • Heralded from the 21st Century: String Theory

    I know not how, may find their way to the minds of humanity in Some Dimensionality, and may stir up a race of rebels who shall refuse to be confined to limited Dimensionality.” from Flatland, by E. A. Abbott It is sometimes important to know what race of rebels had been raised to realize that…

  • Change that Had Consequences

    In the post, Hermetic Ties, I showed how historically information was engraved, crafted, into the woodcuts, for knowledge based on alchemist interests. I further explained the process as I have come to know of it in terms of developing this “inquisitive search into the mystery’s of what life” is about how the questioning mind of…

  • Finiteness of String Theory and Mandelstam

    It might be that the laws change absolutely with time; that gravity for instance varies with time and that this inverse square law has a strength which depends on how long it is since the beginning of time. In other words, it’s possible that in the future we’ll have more understanding of everything and physics…

  • # 184 Metamorphosis

    “A Nuance” can be a compelling thing for the soul as it seeks to understand why something has caught it’s attention. IN that case, I pointed out the relation to Einstein’s “early life” and the compass as an example. IN one other example, I pointed out the man who saw the geometry of his early…

  • BigFoot: The Anomalistic Reality?

    The explanation of scientific development in terms of paradigms was not only novel but radical too, insofar as it gives a naturalistic explanation of belief-change. Thomas Kuhn <a href=”http://eskesthai.blogspot.com/2006/03/professors-fate-or-encouragement-to.html&#8221; target=_BLank title=”Frame from the footage filmed by Roger Patterson in October 1967 (Patterson/Gimlin, © 1968 Dahinden) at Bluff Creek, northern California. © René Dahinden/Fortean Picture Library”>…
