Interesting, thanks. I'll poke around in there. So far I'm not seeing anyone propose an active, participatory, or experiential notion based on qualitative sensorimotive perception like I am. The idea of 'relation' is very 3rd person and collapses well into a mathematical framework, but I don't think a universe based on that alone would let me in it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
