There's a lot of work to be in the theory of emergence. We'll be talking about it in upcoming podcasts. The fact that we can cheat by seeing the higher levels immediately, or in soust, using our eyes, means, on the one hand, we can talk about different levels without understanding emergence very well. And as a result, the emergent levels can involve concepts and vocabularies that are entirely different from the concepts and Vocabularies at lower levels. That's even a little bit true even for liquids, right?
Welcome to the September 2021 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). I take the large number of questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable size — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
