3. 1.1 Inverse Semantics

4. 1.1 Inverse Semantics

5. 1.1 Inverse Semantics Informatics: the ‘+’ and ‘-’ commands, which actually have inverse semantics; ‘+’ means go faster, decreasing this factor, and similar for ‘-’. Psychology: ‘Inversion’ is a common creativity technique. Inverse Semantics: Knowledge is also always a potential Question. Overcome the actual system boundaries by introducing new ideas. Our Mind is a real open system – be proud of it and use it!

6. 1.1 Inverse Semantics

7. 1.1 Inverse Semantics Wolf Singer: the architecture of the brain as a model for complex cities. In the beginning only few system elements: hierarchical, centralized top-down-structures (villages, prehistoric live). Optimization of Information flows, minimization of energy consumption: self organization of unit components (i.e. networks of streets, people, local centers) „binding problem“. Construct cities not as a whole (Brasilia), <Reasoning> of self organization Internet as a model of brain structure ?

9. 2.1 Information processing in Neural Nets The „Binding problem“: not only true for „Gestalt“, but also for Organization (Central Power vs. Decentralized Democracy)

10. 1.2 Inverse Semantics - the Risked Reason Philosophical Anthropology (physicians in the 18. and 19. century): Man is not the triumphing creature - running from victory to victory. A lot of defects can be shown on Man in comparison to animals. But Man is able to compensate those defects with his mind. With this concept of ”homo compensator” (Odo Marquard) the strengths and defects of human evolution can be characterised. The Risked Reason: - appearance of the black wall of the future - Semantic stability of knowledge becomes a problem

23. 1.1 Introduction: Semantic Gravitation and Resonance Neueren Arbeiten zufolge wurden die Pyramidenbauer aus der aegyptischen Bevölkerung rekrutiert. Neuartig war allerdings die Erfindung eines entsprechend umfassenden „Arbeitssystems“, das selbst wiederum zum Wissensaufbau in der Bevölkerung beitrug. Organisation und Installierung von Machtstrukturen als exteriorialisierte Körperlichkeit

24. 1.1 Introduction: Semantic Gravitation and Resonance The Will to Word – an Explosive Concept • On the one hand • since 20 - 50 k years we perceive technological innovations, which sustainable change ourselves and create our culture • improved hunting by the invention of modern diversified techniques, also by the organization of time (i.e. table of moon phases) • invention of agriculture: invention of culture • built pyramids • Invent democracy (distributed knowledge organization) • took less then a decade to invent moon rocket • Takes a half-century for politicians to peacefully create better institutions like the EU and the € Euro.

25. 1.1 Introduction: Semantic Gravitation and Resonance The Will to Word – an Explosive Concept • On the other hand • since 20 - 50 k years technological innovations, which pushed us dramatically in problem areas • “Overkill” in north america. • Anything that disrupts food for urban populations risks a spectacular crash. • End of Egyptian culture due to inflexibility in their centralized cultural organization (“mega-machine”). • Took less then a decade to invent atomic bomb. • Concepts of “Artificial Intelligence” never succeeded as promised. • “Capitalism unmasked” (Noam Chomsky): Risk of re-invention of mega-machine (centralized knowledge organization) • William H. Calvin: We’re recently risen apes, you realize that there simply hasn’t been much time in which to evolve a less buggy version 2.0. • Out of Africa occurred too soon after creative intelligence evolved in Africa.

29. Know-How 3.2 Knowledge is a “secret” Question (1/2) „Gestalt“, Thermodynamically characterizable structure Knowledge is not an atomic, but a distributed creation (unity in multiplicity) Action goals Personal-conceptual, nonverbal, but abstract implicit knowledge: categories of thinking (space, time, causality) Spontaneous, creative processes, structural new ideas (“Gestalt”) X X X Reg Self Real • actor Feeling “Truth” perceptor operator body 1. Generation of Instability / Indetermination 2. Projection of body scheme / reality / goal 3. „Abstraction“ through repetition, i.e. multiple repetitions of networked ways -> spontaneous creation of a new classes/ideas

30. 3.2 Knowledge is a “secret” Question (1/2) • Example „standing waves“: • - Completely new problem situation • - Important measurement error • - Follow up process with undefined Tolerances • Solution: • Activation of tacit, implicit Knowledge from • unconnected Experience Contexts • Overcoming the actual boundaries of the • Cognitive System by inventing new “idea” • - i.e. introduction of a anti reflexion layer
