<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear Francesco,<br>
<br>
thanks for your explanations. I agree with you that there is a
difference that makes a difference between _trans_ and _tras_. Do
you know when and why this difference was introduced in Italian? I
do not know of such a difference in other Latin languages (incl.
Spanish). <br>
<br>
In any case the issue itself concerns the concept of time _as_
related to a process to comes to an end or _telos_ when the final
_forma_ is achieved. This is what _trans-(in)-formatio_ then
addresses. <br>
<br>
The difference you make concerns a permanent process of how
(natural but also artificial) things become and disappear
(Aristotle's _peri geneseos kai pthoras_) which presupposes a
concept of linear time _as_ a linear and quatifiable parameter
that was trans(!)lated in Scholastic philosophy _as_ "numerus
motus secundum prius et posterius"). <br>
<br>
From a phenomenologial point of view this conception of _tras_
that applies to all things (and to the universe itself?) is
different from the kind of timely beings we are _as_ extended in
tridimensional (qualitative different) time modes
(past-present-future). As Heidegger shows, Western metaphysics
(including modern science) is based on the view that being
concerns only one of these modes, namely present: the more present
a thing is, the more it is (god being the nunc stans). <br>
<br>
In other words, the difference you make between _tras_ and _trans_
is not enough if we want do address our own being-in-time (or
being-as-time). What we (partly) tra(n)scend as we exist is
precisely the mode of being of things although we are at the same
time natural beings and so also sub-jected to 'natural tras'. <br>
<br>
Our 'knowledge' of our own birth and death (which is a very
special kind of knowledge, isn't it?) opens a different horizon of
tra-cendence, a three dimensional finite one, that is also
different from the coming to a 'telos' or perfection.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Caro Rafael,
<div>scusami per il ritardo con il quale posso risponderTi. Nel
linguistico e comunicativo contesto della "Nuova economia"
(che non è traducibile in "new economy") della produzione o
creazione io uso tras-in-form-azione intesa a come un'azione
formativa (letteralmente che dà forma) nel tempo (in) che
diventa una conservazione dinamica, cioè una tras-formazione o
metamorfosi continua; mentre trans-informazione, come anche B.
Haussenstein e K. Lorenz hanno affermato, si riferisce ai
processi di ad-attamento che consistono in acquisizione di
sapere corrispondente proprio ad una sorta di incremento della
transinformazione che si stabilisce tra l'organismo e
l'ambiente circostante. Quindi il prefisso "Tras-" si trova in
tras-locare, tras-ferire, tras-gredire, tras-lare,
tras-mettere; e soprattutto con valore figurato, passaggio da
una condizione ad un'altra, cambiamento, mutamento
(tras-crivere, tras-figurare, tras-formare, tras-mutare)
prevalentemente dei sistemi inorganici; il prefisso "Trans"
riguarda essenzialmente i sistemi organici e si ritrova in
transessuale, transgenico, etc. Per la formazione
dell'Universo, la progettazione o organizzazione delle città,
la creazione dei beni culturali, la produzione dei beni
economici, a mio parere, è più ragionevole usare parole
composte con il prefisso "Tras". Naturalmente, il mio punto di
vista presuppone un dominio cognitivo-linguistico-semantico
legato alla lingua italiana e coerente con la mia episteme
economica accennata nei messaggi precedenti.</div>
<div>In ogni caso, ognuno è libero di chiamare le cose o di
significare i segni come vuole, secondo il principio semiotico
dell'arbitrarietà dei segni. Rispettandone le conseguenti
coerenze. Quel che conta è la logica del ragionamento unito
alla disponibilità al dialogo o confronto, senza pre-giudizi o
apriorismi.</div>

qualifica e impreziosisce l'iniziativa e il sapiente lavoro di

further
critical

co-generation
of entropy and

lang="EN">Thanks
for your
words. In the
early eighties
I introduced
the concept of
information-process
(the action of
giving or
taking form in
time). In "The
Economics of
Cultural
Heritage"
(1983), which
became
"Economics of
an
“architectural-environmental
heritage," in
1989 (Franco
Angeli, Milan
), in which,
inter alia, I
define a
negentropic
cultural
value. I also
applied to the
city, during a
course on
urban and
regional
economics at
the Faculty of
Architecture
of Palermo, in
1984-85, the
compound word
trans-form-in-action
(action of
giving or
taking form
over time that
can /not/ not
trans-form) to
the city, But
what matters
most is to
have conceived
the activity
of economic
production (in
general) as a
process of
trans-information
whose "input"
(matter,
energy and
information)
and "output"
(matter,
energy and
information)
are both
negentropy and
entropy. So my
theory of
value (which
applies not
only to the
economy in the
strict sense)
can be defined
in
simple-combination
of creative
energy and
information
and, in a more
complex
triangle of
the three
surpluses of
negentropy:
thermodynamic
or natural,
eco-biological
and
cultural-historical.
So, the
marginal
utility theory
of value of
neoclassical
economists is
outdated and
(should be)
thrown to the
winds. In
fact, the "new
economy" is a
psycho-physical,
semiotic-hermeneutic
and biological
technology
sub-episteme.
In summary, I
really think a
new science of
economics or
economics of
science has
been invented.

Trans-in-form-action</div>

</div>
<div dir="ltr">Caro
Joseph,
<div>grazie
per le Tue
parole.
All'inizio
degli anni
Ottanta ho
introdotto il
concetto-processo
di
informazione
(azione del
dare o
prendere forma
nel tempo) In
"Economia dei
beni
culturali"(1983),
divenuto
"Economia del
patrimonio
architettonico-ambientale"
nel 1989
(FrancoAngeli,
Milano), in
cui fra
l'altro
definisco i
beni culturali
neg-entropici.
Inoltre ho
impiegato la
parola
composta
tras-in-form-azione
(azione del
dare o
prendere forma
nel tempo che
non può non
tras-formarsi)
alla città
durante lo
svolgimento
del corso di
economia
urbana e
regionale
nella Facoltà
di
Architettura
di Palermo,
nell'A.a.
1984-85. Ma
quel che conta
di più è
l'avere
concepito
l'attività di
produzione
economica (in
senso
generale) come
un processo di
tras-informazione
i cui "input"
(materia,
energia e
informazione)
e "output"
(materia,
energia e
informazione)
sono
neg-entropia
ed entropia.
Quindi la mia
teoria del
valore (che
non vale solo
per l'economia
in senso
stretto) può
definirsi- in
modo semplice-
combinazione
creativa di
energia e
informazione
e, in modo più
complesso,
triangolo dei
tre surplus o
neg-entropie:
termodinamici
o naturali,
eco-biologici
e
storico-culturali.
Sicché la
teoria del
valore-utilità
marginale
degli
economisti
neoclassici è
sorpassata e
da buttare
alle ortiche.
Difatti la
"Nuova
economia" è
in-centrata
sull'episteme
psico-fisica,semiotico-ermeneutica
e
biologico-tecnologica.
Insomma, penso
davvero di
avere
inventato una
nuova scienza
dell'economia
o economia
della scienza.
Per questo
appena Pedro
ha ri-parlato
di
informazione
sono stato
stimolato a
mandare il
messaggio
precedente.</div>

però, che non
intendo menare
alcun vanto.</div>

<br>
Among the many
interesting
themes where
the
information
science
perspective
may provide
useful
orientations,
cities are one
of the most
singular. A
recent work by
Michel Batty
on the New
Science of
Cities (2013,
MIT) makes a
lot of
connections
with our oft
discussed info
topics. A
Communication
Theory of
Urban Growth
was developed
by Richard
Meier (1962);
a fluxes
perspective
was already
attempted by
Patrick Geddes
(1949). In
essence I have
found that the
idea of
information
flows and
material flows
as catching
and
intertwining
each other,
with their
highly
different
regimes,
heterogeneity
and energy
contents,
appears as an
important
focus in order
to better
understand the
globalized
city. Scaling
is one of the
essential
concepts...<br>
<br>
I am not aware
that scaling
has been
applied to the
informational
analysis
itself
(obviously it
is the
cornerstone of
self-similarity).
What I mean is
that a
micro-level of
communication
analysis may
be quite
different from
the
meso-level,
and the from
macro-level.
Thinking in
the human case
(biologically
it could make
sense too) the
micro level is
dominated by
syntaxis, by a
Shannonian
type of
analysis on
messages
emitted from a
sourced to a
receiver. The
meso level
contains
meaning, value
(fitness),
purpose, and
in general it
implies the
communication
associated to
the behavioral
episodes and
living rhythms
of
individuals.
While in the
macro level,
many
individuals'
actions,
works,
products, etc.
are aggregated
into fluxes or
flows,
basically of
two kinds
those devoted
to the
material
(self-production)
and those
carrying the
info stuff
devoted to
communication;
then it
invites
analysis of
network
science,
operations
research,
economic
efficiency,
etc., and of
course the
direct flow
perspective as
Bejan and
Peder (2011)
have attempted
in one of the
most
interesting
theories on
self-constructing
flow systems.
Depending on
the
information
perspective in
which we
observe human
communication,
we will need
one or another
lens to better
make sense of
what is
happening.<br>
<br>
My impression
is that a more
mature info
science could
be quite
helpful in
this new field
of urban
development
science --most
people
nowadays are
living in
cities. Top
down planning
will fail if
it is does not
match with the
bottom up
processes,
both in
communication
and
self-production
aspects.
Keeping an
adequate
social flow of
information, a
well-mixed
regime of
communication,
is the essence
of democracy.
The
contemporary
"epidemics of
loneliness"
for instance
may be due
among other
social and
demographic
causes to
failures in
bureaucratic
high level
planning...<br>
<br>
best ---Pedro<br>
<br>
PS. After the
nasty computer
crash months
ago, we should
try to enliven
the
list--shouldn't
we?<br>
