This is a description of "culture." Restated—hopefully without distorting the meaning:

*Culture is the stable patterns of behavior that emerge from individual human actions which vary (are idiosyncratic) within bounds defined by the culture.*

The second glen statement:

/Worded another way: Our perspective on the world emerges from the world. And our perspective on the world shapes how and what we see of the world./

alludes to the cognitive feedback loop (at least part of it) that I developed in my doctoral dissertation on cognitive anthrpology.
This is nicely relevant (and I think supportive of) to my own ideations about the individual/collective "duality", again (just to harp) in the spirit of Yuval Harari's "Intersubjective Reality" conceit.   It also aligns well with my own understanding of co-evolving species (ecosystems) and the more general buddhist "dependent co-arising"...

More n Glen's observations about Schema (and the Abstract-Concrete axis) under separate cover...
