- Crimean Surfers While most surfers ride the waves with their bodies, Crimean surfers ride the waves with their нутро or “gut chakra”. This changes everything, including the surfer and the concept of surfing itself, but as everything that is simple it also demands more explanation. Crimea is a beautiful desolate peninsula located at the Black Sea. It […]
- The System of Improper Conduct “This is morally incorrect” they might say. // declaration of variables Morals are about the proper conduct, the customs. Ethics is the science of morals (meta-level zoom out). … Interestingly, the interest towards ethics increases, while the interest towards morals decreases. (especially since 1940) After all, what is right and what is wrong in the […]
- Explosive Implosion Every particle is exploding and imploding at every moment of time. 0:12 Six feet of this long molecule fits into the microscopic nucleus of every cell. 2:57 What you are about to see is DNA’s most extraordinary secret; how a simple code is turned into flesh and blood. You are watching this transcription […]
- The Bow and the Arrow I had a dream about you. Or maybe it was a dream about myself. It was in some kind of a beautiful forest, but there were not too many trees. Almost none. Maybe it was a Siberian steppe. Some hills around, far way. There was a man, a very strong man, and he was showing […]
- The Life and Death of an Engineered Organism A theoretical approach for designing a controllable synthetic circuit has been proposed and could be applied in similar situations. The principal idea is to incorporate an outer feedback loop around the synthetic construct, such that the organism cannot be sustained without an external control signal: a given nutrient or a light source. This type of […]
- Chaos and Circadian Rhythms In this world, there are several facts that are scientifically confirmed. The state of cognitive rest is characterized by chaotic variability. Chaotic variability has a pattern of pink noise. Pink noise: oscillation amplitudes negatively correlate with their frequencies. The smaller the amplitude, the higher the frequency. The higher the amplitude, the lower the frequency. Everyday things happen more often than […]
- Drugs as Advertising In this world, drugs are like advertisements. Things can get complicated. What’s promised may be perceived to be real and the other way round. Drugs advertise. They direct attention to something. We are told what’s possible. It turns out that everything is. We know that already. It’s good to have a reminder. However, the “What” (is […]
- Surfing In this world, there is an activity that is called Surfing. The essence of this activity, as we could decipher from numerous observations and infiltrations, is about finding the right moment across multiple dynamics that are in relation to one another.
- Polysingularity of Water Water is a great example of a natural entity that is polysingular. It can maintain several different dynamic states at once that interact through its own liquid matter to produce non-equilibrium stability. The constant movement of water creates perturbations within the substance, which then come into direct contact with earth, wind, light and reflections. The […]
- Black Waters When you look at the ocean, the waves form the wells over the surface. These are strange attractors, the areas of temporary non-equilibrium stability. This is how water’s polysingularity expresses itself and its ability to maintain permanence through interaction between the local and global dynamics.
- A Tree in a Forest Every tree in the forest is different, manifesting its polysingularity. When the difference between the differences is falling within a certain predictable range, we have a case of non-equilibrium stability. When something dares to be much more different than anything else, this is an act of commitment to its own specificity. Such action deserves a […]
