Philosophy of information and organization — Part 1 of a series about how we see things in nature and society (ie, “epistemology.”) — Comments are invited to make it better and to clarify the issues. Essentially it is a metaphysics of “information” and “organization” in the biological and social sciences. It developed as part of the standard grammar for an animated flow-chart energy language. The last 1/3 will show some examples, touch upon how institutions in economics correspond to the pattern, compare the very different type of system in climate and ecology (ie flow-through webs,) and end with a very simple summary. It will be posted shortly. The little black bar at the bottom is for the time-cursor and the symbol list, which I don’t add until the animation is entirely finished. (To see how that works, please look at some of the other animations. Click on “leearnold,” above.) After this one is finished, it’s back to the more mundane stuff.
