Dear Mark, Plamen and others who have referred to a quantum or quantum kind of logic,
I follow your thought and insights, but your use of the term "quantum" is superfetatory. What I think you are looking for is a logic whose terms, like those of quantum logic, do not commute or distribute.
What is true of the quantum domain is true analytically - particle-wave duality, etc. What is true of the thermodynamic domain - actuality moving to potentiality and v.v. is true synthetically. Its logic is a dynamic logic of processes, not quanta, and the terms of such a dynamic process logic can be said to "breathe", accordingly.
Best,
Joseph

Thank you all, for this exciting turn in the echo of Katherine’s topic.
With breathing the subject becomes much more interesting indeed. Particularly if we want to be in control of the lower self feelings. The quantum kind of logic might make sense in rationalizing the gain and spending of energy to perform certain tasks.
Alex, can you help with some good references for laymen pranayama crash courses?
Best,
Plamen

Dear Alex and Lou,
This seems to be much closer to the point - thank you.
Lou - I wonder if your question is a way of asking "is it possible to design a system that 'breathes'?"
Current AI systems clearly do not. Our emotions do (As does music).
I'm intrigued by the possibility that there might be a quantum logic of breathing - something which is homologous to the function of the autonomic nervous system?
One aspect to this which I think is important and which gets lost in discussion about emotions is that we breathe (and feel) together, and not alone.
Best wishes
Mark

Dear Alex,
I agree with you. It is possible to design structures supported by digital systems that have their structure maintained by response to perturbations.
There are very elementary cellular automata that are like that.
Then we might have things like large language models that simulate biological systems with instability correction that verges on “experience” and “emotions”.
Such systems could report on their own internal states, as we do. But present systems are not founded in this way.
Best,
Lou

RE:
1. My take on the self-regulatory function emotion suggests that the dual “purposes” of self-preservation and adaptive self-development (both mediated by Negative ~ Positive categories of emotions) are rooted in
ancient information signaling and memory systems.
2. Is any subjectivity involved in information processing? At what point is it purely mechanical?
3. And once again, where does the
semantic value enter the picture? Not-self pathogens? Too hot, too cold?
None of these questions are dealt with in terms of digital information in organisms of any kind. Organisms treat them in terms of 'Experience Information', which is entirely different, being based on naturally occurring Instabilities in organism response systems, which cannot support Digital Information (for obvious reasons), and which are present to enable the organism to satisfy the requirements of Fractal Physiology.
