Dear All,
In response to the comments received:
Stan (offline), you are right about the subsumptive hierarchy among
these three concepts or levels (genotype-phenotype-sociotype). In our
opinion the essential aspect becomes the specific "information flow"
that underlies the emergence/construction of each one. Rather than
energy flow it is a matter of energy flow. For instance, multicellular
phenotypes are possible via the information flow of a number of
intercellular messengers that are received and processed by the
"cellular signaling systems" of individual cells. In the sociotype case,
the specific information flow becomes the human language... all human
societies are indeed information societies.
John Prick, thanks for your cordial acknowledgment. We hope that social
science parties will take into account not only the interesting
questionnaire, but also the new point of view developed in the
introduction. It is really information science "in action" within the
social realm.
Joseph, the main goal of this work is to provide both a new vision and a
new practical tool. The "epidemics of loneliness" of contemporary
societies demands quite many changes of view. Paradoxically, it is also
a product of the new "information society". Our face-to-face exchanges,
the flesh and bones of our social bonds, are jeopardized by the
addiction to the new forms of weak communication via cellphones,
internet, etc. It is a problem we also discuss in our paper.
Sung, you may be right! the attention economy working in our social
contacts seems to be similar to the transcription economy of our cells
and to the metabolic trade-offs of our organs in the overall
optimization of the organism. The PDE (Planckian Distribution Equation)
that you describe, which was already presented months ago in a FIS
session, becomes a very intriguing "form of information" that we are
also finding within a number of sociotype components: for instance,
family number, friends and acquaintances numbers, etc. and also in the
corresponding conversation times. We thank you for your cooperation in
this ongoing exploratory work.
In a few days I will send the customary Season Greetings and some
highlight of the discussion sessions programmed for the next course.
All the best--Pedro
