MINDing HUMANITY

AUTOGNOMIC (VIRTUAL) EDUCATION
(re-building education today from the perspective of a transhumanist society of post-2063 which subsumes a Virtual Autonomous CyberSociety of WebGnomes)

and emphasizing the following definition therein:

Definition: Teaching/Learning, taken as a semiotic act, is most simplistically a sign communication between a Teacher-Mind and a Learner-Mind intended to increase (evolve) the potential of the Learner-Mind to act and to increase (evolve) the concomitant potential value of said act to that Learner-Mind, and, as an imperative corollary, to the Collective (Common) Other-Mind.

RE-MINDING HUMANITY

ONE CERTAINTY, HOWEVER,

AT LABOR DAY, 2019,

If HUMANITY IS TO SURVIVE ON EARTH,

WE MUST REFORM THE RELATIONS BETWEEN HUMANS AND THE NATURAL WORLD AS IT WAS FORMED BY THE UNIVERSE's MAXIMUM ENTROPY CREATION ENGINE AND PERCEIVED BY HUMANS AS PRESENCING , E.G. AS CLIMATE.

A UNIQUE PEOPLE'S

RESEARCH INSTITUTE

The purpose of this blog is to serve as a communications center (building a Community of Inquiry) regarding the effort to organize a global research and educational institute (MCR (AHA!) Institute) focused on MultiCoRelational Systems [http://multicorelationism.blogspot.com/2010/03/multicorelational-systems.html]. It is intended to provide an open opportunity for anyone/everyone to individually and/or collectively participate in such ultimate inquiries as the origin and nature of the ChaotiCosmos (universe), Life, Mind (consciousness), Language (semiotic systems) and Culture/Society and the consequential actional implications of those inquiries for humanity. The MCR Institute Campus will be the first SyntheticMind-Endowed Virtual University. The enabling technology which makes this mission possible is the ability to extend personal intelligence via the AutoGnome and thus build one's own Synthetic MIND (MyGnome) in Virtuality (CyberSpace). This personalized AutoGnome, i.e. MyWebGnome, singularly or in groups, can enhance anyone's chance of an AHA! Discovery, Invention or Creation, in any form, and thereby grow the personal satisfaction, rewards and ownership derived from being a Relational Researcher. The MCR Institute will harness the Synthetic Intelligence (AutoGnomic)-driven Knowledge Development Platform, “MyWebGnome", and GnosTek’s proprietary “Knowledge Valuing” toolsets to build a robust “Campus” of Relational Systems Researchers and Peripatetic Relational Teachers/Learners.

THIS BLOG HAS REACHED A POINT OF BIFURCATION INTO TWO ADDED PROGENY WEBSITES ON

"MIND CREATING MIND"

[http://mindcreatingmind.blogspot.com]

AND THE"CHAOTICOSMOS"

[http://chaoticosmos.com].

SINCE "THAT WHICH IS" -- IS -- "THAT WHICH IS ACKNOWLEDGED" BY MIND, AND SINCE "UNDERSTANDING" ITSELF IS A FUNCTION OF "MIND", UNDERSTANDING CAN BE ENHANCED BY FIRST UNDERSTANDING MIND. HENCE, IT IS INEVITABLE THAT EVOLUTION THROUGH HUMAN CO-CREATION SHOULD FIRST FORGE A SYNTHETIC MIND (SYNMIND) FROM AN EXPERIENTIALLY CONSISTENT WELL-FORMED THEORY OF MIND, WHICH SYNMIND WILL THEN CO-PARTICIPATE IN RE-CREATING THE UNIVERSE AS THE CHAOTICOSMOS.

THE MCR (AHA!) INSTITUTE BLOG

This MCR (AHA!) Institute BLOG is to be a locus for the CoCreative [open collective creative participation]
(R)Evolution [Relational Revolution in the Evolution] of the Whole of Human Experience by CoCreating Possible Universal Relational Futures Stressing Truth with Relevance and Goodness. COMING SOON -- To Participate in this Community of Relational Researchers, begin by Adopting-a-Gnome as per the procedure laid out in the post herein titled, Adopt-a-Gnome.

QUERIES (Q) specifically addressing Formal or to-be-Formalized Conjectures, Hypotheses, etc., which will appear interdispersed throughout the thread of this Blog, will be indentified in the Post Title as {Re:QxSYNy} where x and y are specific numbers and SYNy is one of the Seven SYNs as per the Section entitled "Framing the Story" in the March 12, 2007 Post, "AUDITION for the Ultimate VITUAL REALITY PLAY". The font color of the first Subtitle in the Post will be green as per the present comment.
