Cool Roger, It mostly makes sense to me, except I don't understand why I. is associated with objects and substance when it is feeling, perception, and first person quale.
To me, thinking is just as much first person as feeling, and they both are subjective qualia. Thinking is a meta-quale of feeling (which is a meta-quale of awareness>perception>sensation>sense) That puts the whole subjective enchilada as Firstness and leaves objects and substance to Secondness. This is Self-Body distinction. What you have is like Lower-Self/Higher-Self distinction but with objects kind of shoehorned in there. Once you see matter as a public extension and self as a private intention, then Thirdness arises as the spatiotemporal interaction of formation and information. That outlines one way of slicing the pizza. I don't know if you can see this but here: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Xz8OmKGPEjE/UIL6EtVeBEI/AAAAAAAAAZ4/iBhuMxBj9oU/s1600/trio_sml_entropy.jpg That gives a better idea of the syzygy effect of the big picture, how they overlap in different ways and set each other off in a multi-sense way. The Firstness, Secondness, and Thirdness relate respectively to the respective trios: *I. Sense, Motive II. Matter, Energy, III. Space, Time* to get to morality, you have to look at the black and white: *IV. Signal *(escalating significance), *Entropy* aka Ent ntr rop opy (attenuating significance...fragmentation and redundancy obstructs discernment capacities...information entropy generates thermodynamic entropy through sense participation) I did a post on this today, but it's pretty intense: http://s33light.org/post/33951454539 Craig On Thursday, October 18, 2012 9:18:50 PM UTC-4, rclough wrote: > > > <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Xz8OmKGPEjE/UIL6EtVeBEI/AAAAAAAAAZ4/iBhuMxBj9oU/s1600/trio_sml_entropy.jpg> > Hi Craig > > Thanks very much for your comments Craig.
