I infer a negtive conotation to the term static, as compared to a positive
one applied to dynamic??
[Case]
I do not apply any value connotations to either term only to their specific
manifestation. The earth orbiting the sun is a static pattern that I place a
high positive value on. A hurricane is a dynamic event to which I place a
highly negative value.
[Jos]
But complexity can only be a function of static ordered things right? You
cant say a dynamic mess is complex can you?
If there are no inherent rules present in a chaotic system but you reverse
engineer the whole thing and try and imprint sets of hyper complex rules on
top of it, what have you achieved?
[Case]
I would say complexity results from the interplay of static and dynamic
factors. But it does not take complex rules to generate complexity a small
set of simple rules will work.
[Jos]
Would it help to define "memory" as the whole thing - as a set of static
patterns experienced?
We cab relegate the static elements of it to being a constituent of the
whole?
So we have complex 4d static "records", but "memory" is the act of
experiencing them, which in itself constantly alters their nature??
[Case]
I do not see any distinction between a memory and the experience of memory.
Nor do I see memory as static. Memory is fizzy. Ideas and recollections pop
in and out of our heads. Associations, connections between memories, are
made and strengthened constantly in response to incoming stimulation. That
strengthening is the process of the dynamic being rendered increasingly
static but the increase in static quality becomes the foundation for further
dynamic interaction.
