Recollections of Jimmy Carter and the Great Malaise

 I got into politics mainly in spite of myself. I remember campaigning with the LaRouche Labor Party in the locale of my parents Love Canal home when Jimmy Carter was running as a candidate and appeared at a rally nearby. 

I was hawking Fusion magazines and New Solidarity Newspapers promoting the very antithesis of Carter's later idiotic "Energy Crisis" drivel. When I and my associates would mock Jimmy for seeing little green men in the back yard of his peanut warehouse and his Quixotic fighting off fearsome swimming rabbits, sometimes duped Democrats would counter that Jimmy was a nuclear engineer. The joke rejoinder went that if by that token Carter was a nuclear engineer for having captained a nuclear powered ship then I must be a gynecologist...

One of my associates attended a rally nearby that Carter held that day in downtown Niagara Falls. (The only other President who appeared in this relic of American industrial power was JFK. And I do remember my father hoisting me up on his shoulders as he sped by in an open air limo waving to the crowd on the side of the Niagara Falls boulevard.) She tried to corner Jimmy with a question that charged him with being a puppet of the Trilateral Commission. She named Zbigniew Brzezinski and James Shlesinger as his puppet masters. Jimmy grinning from ear to ear told her that he had never heard of the Trilateral Commission, Brzezinski or Shlesinger! And then Jimmy proceeded to sign the New Solidarity newspaper she was waving at him. And of course the rest is history. 

It amazes me that today even the "mainstream media" covers the race for fusion energy and colonizing space all these many years later. Miribile Dictu, plus ça change. 

Paradigm Shift

 It being the case that the crises in international relations may only be resolved at a higher dimensional non geopolitical focus, what is required is the convening of the world’s governments. This must be centered upon basic common goals. 

These are delivering the fruits of scientific progress toward uplifting the standard of living and all that entails. It further prioritizes key research areas and applications. I have previously outlined these on this platform. 

Rigorous scientific thought must provide a long term future for the inhabitants of this planet as we move our civilization outward.

Dante Alighieri and Culture Wars

Is it the case that the caregiver in a monogamous human relationship seeks to reform their mate according to their own preferences? And furthermore isn’t it the case that when these same mates stubbornly refuse to communicate their relationship becomes rather hellish.

And this brings me to Dante. Recall to mind he was in a dark woods at midlife pining for any direction out. It was the principle of producing a transformative poem in obeisance to his beloved Beatrice. On today’s political stage, we are like Dante in a dark woods. We are being tested upon whither goes society.

Dante Alighieri created a sort of almost living vehicle in his Divine Comedy. For what he did was a blow against the oligarchy of his day. The vernacular became the new medium for great and beautiful art and science. That is revolutionary. 

Our current unfinished business is to create a unifying narrative that brings humanity to the next stage.

Physical Topology and Incongruities of Perceptual Space Resolved

 Since on a hyper-dimensional torus, for instance, the astronomical universe is finitely bounded and recursive due to its arrangement of complex covering surfaces, it is not surprising that light should also complete such covering circuits since it is unable to be destroyed. 

This would explain why those forms of elemental matter, whether particles or waves, which are congruent with this property of light, i.e. that of indestructability, should not also be recursively superposed since they may traverse such a hyper-dimensional and notably finite surface. In fact, it would not be surprising in that regard if superposition of recursive forms of energy and matter were not happening apparently randomly due to their very such bounded finite nature although almost immeasurably large. 

Thus the local realism finite axiomatic suppositions of our naïve sense certainty melt away. But that is in accord with the ontological topology of that which determines those very senses. The wonderful yet to be uncovered anomalous topology of the evolving multiply connected Riemannian singularity poled surface complex hypersphere. Such that the apparent irrationality is resolved at a higher perspective. 

The issue confronting our society is in sharing such wonderful insights collaboratively instead of continuously threatening to obliterate each other. That is truly irrational, unlike the geometry of the physical, living and creatively conscious realms of being. 

The Antimatter Era

 If we survive the terrible twos of humanity’s evolution, the current nuclear age will be succeeded by the fusion (thermonuclear age) within the next decade or so. If we don’t suicide human civilization shortly, we will emerge from the terrible twos into preadolescence. That will mean the advent of the next sequential age after fusion, i.e. the antimatter age.

This arrow of human time is conformal with the reigning in of energy, the capability of biophysics advances in gene and proteomics and using the electromagnetic spectrum for communications as well as and at least as importantly, if not more so — Art. This is in no wise science fiction. Evolutionary trajectories are what Leibniz hailed as pre-established harmonically. Geometrically they are in the meta mathematical realm of the psyche, if you will. Such that as we advance our understanding of the synchronicity of curvature and dimensionality with numeric and meta numeric spacetime, that pathway by necessity create a succession of ascending phases in human development. 

The Psychology of Trusting a Thoroughly Corrupt Establishment

 In the name of creating an empire based on a false dichotomy dreamed up in the 18th century between capitalists and workers, the United States was captured by fanatics bent upon global geopolitical domination. It really wasn’t until the “have nots” sans culottes set up an irrational retaliatory form of anarchy in France that the U.S. could be later recruited to provide the firepower for such schemes. The bette noir of communism on the heels of defeat of the axis powers in WWII came as a convenient excuse to formalize the rampant military expansionism of today’s “rules based order.” 

The decision to wantonly slaughter civilians in carpet bombings in Germany and then the deployment of two atomic bombs in Japan served as a sort of object lesson rationalism accepted popularly in the collective consciousness that this was now to be the role of America as superpower. This is why today so many of our citizens go along to get along with the unleashing of unending geopolitical wars short of all out thermonuclear war. We decide to look the other way convinced that somehow the wholesale human slaughter that we engage or accede to is in the end a sort of necessary price to pay for “normalcy.” 

If anyone or anything would threaten to disrupt this false normalcy narrative of the necessary control of what Eisenhower called the military industrial complex then there must be a curtailment of those threats. Whether or not this is even consciously examined by the populace is beside the point.  The acceptance of the rules of the game acts as consent. There are always rationalizations. 

A Fully Cooperative Platform for Autonomous Planetoids in Space

 Imagine the progress in the biophysical realm that we can achieve some centuries hence. The components of the proteome that will make possible extending the healthspan and organ and bodily regeneration will increasingly be practical. 

For instance, the problem of the sleep/wake earth rotational cycle governed by the suprachiasmatic nucleus will be in our power to alter along with healthspan extension. Manufacturing food, fuel and living environments for such artificial planetoids from the raw materials in space will have been mastered. 

With the above humanity’s experience of time will be altered such that our psyche will shed much as a chrysalis does its false worldview of predator prey relationships due to scarcity. Physical labor will be totally replaced via robotics such that the newly freed human spirit will be given free reign to problem solve and create beauty. 

The history of our society’s brutal infancy before we moved off the earth will be distant collective memories. Our past wars over the control imperium of financial shackles will seem risibly unreal. We will encounter no enemies to struggle over finite resources because resources will truly for all practical purposes be infinite. And as such the scientific process whereby we go beyond limitations in taming yet unknown properties of space and time will be the province of us all in solidarity as opposed to the slave mentality of each against all. 

Unexamined assumptions result in war

 People in power are captives to their precepts about why they are where they are. It is the clash of these assumptions that include emphatically that warfare is a fact of life regardless of the era in human history. This is not equivalent to the popularized maxim of a "clash of civilizations." Such maxims smack of the pipedreams of authors who would characterize worldviews of nations. Say Tocqueville for instance.  

This misses the forest for the trees. And interestingly results from said authors failure to examine their own assumptions about the way in which the zeitgeist determines things. It is a framework founded upon a particularly dreadful assumption that humans are merely amoral talking animals. Such are very much in the sense that frameworks lie behind hypotheses in mathematics, religion and science. 

However, due to the current technological status of our control over states of matter, we find ourselves by necessity unable to escape examining our assumptions about warfare. Because we could easily by miscalculation wind up with no future. 

Thus it is a predominate urgency to broadcast the message to convene the powers and agree upon an overriding mission for humanity's pathway out of this crisis. 

 

Time for Humanity

 We know of various segmentations of time for all realms of physical reality. There are half lives of radioactive elements as well as for fusion in the interiors of stars. Then there are the regular exudations and waves of radiation of cyclical growth and regeneration of plants and animals. These manifest themselves at the nano dimension of proteins and DNA all the way up to the level of the populations of species interactions. 

We currently have telescoped our uniquely human conception of time into a very narrow range due to fomenting of crises of potential extermination of society due to the sequalae of financial breakdown and impending global nuclear warfare. This theme of the veritable one minute to midnight syndrome is pervasive and colors all our comings and goings, willy nilly. It is a cultural pessimism that promotes a vitiated and rather ugly type  of escapism crudely dressed up as "freedom."

However, for a moment or two, let us explore an alternative perspective of a kind of potentially adjusted timeframe for humanity. Suppose we set our sites on populating Mars and terraforming it over the next century or so. Simultaneously, we will create a habitable "planetoid" fueled by matter anti matter reactions for likewise terraforming the next potentially habitable planet in the closest "Goldilocks zone" star system. This endeavor will perhaps be accomplished say in a few centuries. As part of this mission, we will also extend the health span of individual humans by many years.

What we have pointed toward here may seem like a fantastical vision of science fiction. But if we were to mentally put ourselves back  a mere say two centuries of human history would not what we take for granted as technological accomplishments seem fantastical? Thus time is relative to the happiness of humanity's mission orientation. In that sense we experience the simultaneity of eternity in the realm of scientific and artistic truly human imagination. 

Even the Very Stones Cry Truth

 If you listen still and long

A symphony of sound beckons

To the minds eye peculiar 

Songs and melodic proofs

Of life once there

Harkening in quick and lively rhythms

Foretelling a past and future strife

And perplexing the thought in folds

Of intoxicating hues far beyond

Comprehension. So it goes

In this mortal cloth ever and anon

The characters once alive may still

Entrance with hope and love

From very stones unbidden by most.

Yet full of lessons still unlearned

And fables yet unsaid. 

Solace thou art never lost

While one human life is here

To work into comprehensions 

Mighty forge.

The Monad as a Regulator

 The indivisible living totality is either a lesser or greater monad. The mechanism for its role as a regulator is hidden from the physical substance of genetic programs and the proteome. However relics of unquestionable regulation are evident within that substrate. Just as gravity and the so called dark energy lambda coefficient are evidence of an inert matter regulatory matrix, so too the generation, subsumption and extinguishing of species is regulatory of the lower monads. 

The human species is of a higher consciously willful sort of self regulating monad. One individual has impressed upon itself the whole vision of the potentiality of the species. This capability precipitates the creation of societal missions across generations. This is the essence of government.

There is a uniquely constructive geometrical mathematics that conforms to the orderly perfection of such willful betterment of human practice. It involves a curvature tensor for the analysis situs of systemic transformations of economic technologies. The location of anomalous potentials in the scales from the astronomical to the infinitesimal non living and living forms of matter are its domain of investigation.

It is the harmonious construction of new technologies that advances the power of developing societies from the standpoint of free energy beyond that of mere replenishment that must guide science and art. For such harmony is the essence of creative beauty. It is the ever unheard and yet evolving poetry, music and vision of the higher monad. This is the only desideratum of self government. 

Behind the New Cold War Agenda

 It is an egregious error to compartmentalize world events into separate analysis of wars over religion, ethnicities or resource or trade control. This is a form viewing current history as a mere enumeration of isolated events. Like say the retailing of daily news of the occasions of crime and the weather. Mere disconnected happenstance that we the people have ultimately little control over. 

In reality there is a monumental battle over the control of the world financial system that is vectoring those apparently disparate events. We have a crisis of the massive quadrillions of uncollectible debt that has been escalating since the Breton Woods system unraveled in the wake of the inability of the US to resolve trade imbalances in gold reserves when Nixon pulled the plug. This untethered the financial system to trade in physical commodities and instead allowed for currency arbitrage and the petro dollar reserve currency to fill the void. 

In order to prop up the financial rule of the asset stripping cum free trade swindles that ensued of such unbridled monetarism countries became mere satraps of Wall Street and the City of London financial centers enforced by military expansionism. This inevitably was doomed to unravel sooner or later. What will replace this rotten system of ever expanding debt bubbles and creative financial arbitrage  swindles like derivative securities you need only look to the potential of the dedollarization of the emerging BRICS agreements. The only way around the disorderly collapse of the US is the rational writing off of the fictional paper around the principle of salvaging productive household wealth through advancing the required reorganization of the physical economy.

The Battle of the Worldviews

 We read of the thoughts of the society via profound artworks and lesser popular media littered throughout the ages. Also there is a battle carried on that may be deciphered in the ideal messaging nature of in-betweenness in the manifold forms of the expression. This has a distinct emotional component that permeates the commonality society if only in a unselfconscious way.

So really what we are locating here is a continuum of historical mindsets. This manner of assessing humanity’s developmental thought processes is indicative of Leibniz’ dictum that this is the best of all possible worlds where the worldview that adheres to the principle of doing the good always succeeds. That is if humanity would revolutionize its practices in order to survive.

The Hidden Hypotheses that Underlie Society

 In rare instances in human history the thought processes that define our collective assumptions are laid bare. Mostly humans do not reflect upon them and act as if they are self evident. Just as self evident as say bodily functions like breathing and eating. However in times of epochal change which can last a lifetime or more these axioms of “normal” functioning are examined. 

Take the debates of Socrates with the sophists over the purpose of knowledge. The debate of Descartes and Leibniz over whether momentum or acceleration is essential in defining force. And today’s question of what constitutes useful economic development for the aims of future civilizations. 

It needn’t matter whether these questions were popularly held by the ordinary members of the current populace for them to be impactful for governing society. They are reflective of deeply ingrained truths that determine the direction we will take or not. And as the saying goes the truth will set you free. 

Reflect if you will upon the simple yet profound meaning of the concepts of time and mortality that make many of our concerns of day to day functioning paltry in comparison. The quest for fame and fortune are as mere trinkets and illusory baubles by comparison. The elevated frame of mind to the consideration of lasting truths is the only standpoint through which we can rise above our stubborn recalcitrant fixations that hold us captive to deadly illusions.

A Tear Withheld

 The lapse in effort to embrace

Beauty’s sacred gardens along

The pathway in lives regrets

A hectic blur of strange

Realms and songs unheard

And anthems of the heart

More real than the grays 

Of listless plodding 

Along the edge

Of night.

Why So-called Science Fiction is a Dystopian Nightmare

The misguided assumption that as humanity sheds its earthbound shackles that all the ills that human minds are heir to will still control our actions is absurdly wrongheaded. The motifs of alien empires aiming at our destruction are merely part and parcel of fairytale lore being repurposed as such. This bias even grips the musings of astronomers as they describe catastrophic scenarios of stars and galaxies being shredded and cannibalized for instanced. 

Instead of these false notes, to cite Beethoven’s ninth symphony as the pinnacle of the antidote to such small minded cynicism, let us explore the scientific principle that Leibniz popularized of pre established harmony. Bernard Riemann took up the subject of the perspective of cyclical natural functions in his unpublished philosophical ruinations. His predecessor Gauss definitively explored the mathematical geometry of residues that cover all potential cases of such clockwork functions. 

Riemann described how differing clocks work at biological and physical substrates. The earth itself with its 24 hour cycle being determinative via the discovery of the ubiquitous clock gene regulatory mechanism throughout the biosphere. 

Now this brings me back to the topic of my post today, Suppose that human science is able to tinker with the very suprachiasmatic nucleus itself. As we go forth from this planet suppose we reset our biological clocks that slow down the aging process considerably. What will this mean for revolutionizing how we view the useless wars and struggles that have befallen humanity from time immemorial? In other words won’t we emerge from our own infantile fixations upon trying to control territories and resources? 

This should be the stuff for narratives of our science future. Not the confining paradigm of dusty relics of some irrational mythological gods that serve merely to continue their dominance over human minds.

The Substance of Human Freedom is the Ever Increasing Beauty of Possibility

 Probability, because it is by definition fixed, excludes the truly substantial possibility of the infinitely enriched geometry of human creative power to change reality for the good. The nature of curvature is such that a positively curved projected space affords a capturing of the undefined and weary infinity on the imaginary regular grid of fixed extension. All closed spherical spaces allow for this possibility. Negative curvature, on the other hand, along with its flat transition into the positive domain, can be normalized as a conformal mapping onto a multiply connected hyper surface. Thus, all potential upon the curved imaginary complex number n + 1 dimensional field defined for creative action within such a well defined global unit sphere of normal mapping extends and encapsulates all human possible endeavors. 

This is the principle of the individual's grasp of a true infinity. The essence therefore of filiation or solidarity of humanity in the ongoing tapestry of development away from ruinous bad choices dictated via the wrongful grasp of the confining strictures probability's flat-like limits that exclude this higher hypothesis of the unification of curvature. 

This is the reason we know that fixity is a false principle.  

The Truthful Scientific Method

 The exploration and harnessing of anomalous states of organizations of matter, viz. the non living, living and noetic realms of acting within their bounds or across them particularly in the case of the noetic operating amongst all three.

This results in a method that portends concrete goals. Controlling energy forms and materials for enhancing human welfare. Harvesting nourishment in the most advanced nondestructive manner. Extending human senses and health spans. Providing advancing transportation via conquering space travel and habitation. Producing great art that lifts the mind and aspires to immortality. 

All this and more is part of a truthful scientific quest for discovering the limitless anomalous states heretofore identified.

The Power of Good Ideas as Transformative

 The mind as distinct from consciousness per se is composed of many interconnected levels of human function. This constitutes a kind of imaginary space or field. These have an ordering across a spectrum. Mere physical survival being at one end and at the other survival in the realm of ideas. Individuals in society can inhabit at or near a particular spectral line along this spectrum as a locus of their activities. Individuals are also quite capable of inhabiting several nodal points in succession. Some will strive to bring forward the transformative power of changing civilization upon a long term mission to inhabit the knowable universe. 

An agreement in the realm of governing ideas with this outcome aforementioned, is in fact the only possible means available of effecting it. All else including vapid phrase mongering by a supposed intelligentsia is a waste of time, and unfortunately many times, human lives as well. Those that would exist on the highest platform of future reality must bring to bear all in their power such ideas as living off the planet will invariably produce. 

Thus the subject of control over our own future is in the appropriate hands and the lunatic quest to annihilate humanity via war is shed like a dead carcass. A diseased artifact of despotic and decayed rulership of historical peoples as empires sprung and withered or were forcibly torn to bits. 

Those answering this call will be the de facto lawgivers whether declared or not is of little consequence. Here we meet another historical faction of Socratic reason. The immense wealth of the deliberations over the proper fate of nations over centuries is also in the same spectral space of highest degree. Works of thought, like Plato’s Republic, Dante’s Divine Comedy, Shakespeare’s tragedies are branchpoints in the multi dimensional manifold of the mind of society itself. The individual in the here and now has a intersecting part in this higher cognitive history in productively effecting it’s outcome. 

The only way out

 The rather Hobbesian doctrine of geopolitics must be defeated if humankind can have an opportunity to prevail. While this has always mattered in stopping senseless slaughter, today more than ever with the advent of H bomb arsenals it is a necessary turn that must be taken. 

The common aims of mankind to quell the warrior class doing the bidding of heedless financiers lunatic monetary schemes of bubble economics.

They are as follows:

Development of fusion energy, transportation infrastructure, fresh water projects, increasing the healthspan, and settling outer space. This only those of little understanding or ill will can possibly deny this program.

The Meaning of Conceiving Space as Metrical

 Paradoxes are abounding in humanity's ability to perform transformations in analyzable "space." This usage of such a universally accepted assumption that framework metric space and actual space are one and the same is the root of why such impossible riddles subsist. 

For example, just take the all too clever formulations for the inconsistencies inherent in the spatial matrix transforms: the point at infinity AND the extended large infinity. Now to be sure, there are ways to account for this drawback while staying within the same assumption framework by creating "special functional domains." This in essence is the nature of Dirac sea matter from another imagined realm and as well as the renormalization criteria of quantum mechanics formulae. The whole particle physics adoption of transform spaces like SU2 to reign in this mismatch in the two disparate spaces. 

Overall, the foregoing metamathematical gedankenexperiment is in fact a proof of the "irreality" that conformal geometry is just that "conformal," yet not quite real. This was Riemann's hypotheses that lie at the basis of such merely metrical space was the whole point of opening up visual perception of curvature to a higher standpoint. That of non-Euclidian and integrated hyper dimensional curved space. Infinities can be created that are not magical algebraic calculus add-ons like the development of renormalization when confronted with the very same paradoxical absurdities.

It was only this reworking of the metrical field mathematical geometry that led to the fluid mechanics of extra dimensional spacetime. Felix Klein explicitly said that the formulation of relativity via a special four dimensional spacetime was only a part of Riemann's overall system. And Klein was irrefutably correct as much as Fechner's extension of the meaning of a particular sort of communicative consciousness to both the vegetative and even possible inert realms. In the latter case, may we not say that the astronomical domain exhibits simpler form of quasi directedness? Recall that Riemann cites Fechner's schema of rhythmic variation across the spectrum of living spaces of reckoning of time. 

As we look ahead to redefining time in the context of humanity's mission of conquering the extreme reality's necessary alterable conditions of living in outer space... take, for instance, the twin problem parameter scope, (i.e. "space") of engineering the technological creation of artificial gravity and shielding our frail biology from cosmic radiation.
