<div dir="ltr">Caro Pedro e cari Tutti,<div>allego un file .doc di alcune pagine di "Etica dei valori economici o economia dei valori etici" scritte nel 2002 e pubblicate nel 2004 (FrancoAngeli, Milano), il cui contenuto è, a mio giudizio, congruente e pertinente al tema che si sta affrontando. Naturalmente, chiedo scusa a tutti per la lunghezza dello scritto e per la pazienza che Vi chiedo di avere nei miei confronti, dato che uso la lingua italiana. In modo particolare a Pedro che mi deve sopportare pur essendo, in un certo qual modo, un diverso che naviga in molti campi del sapere e chiede semplicemente di trovare, come sempre è accaduto nella Fis, uno spazio per me prezioso, provvidenziale e compensativo di tante congiure del silenzio di cui sono stato oggetto. Ecco perché, fino a quando il mio "pensiero pensante" funzionerà farò il possibile e l'impossibile per comunicare con il mondo che amo, conservo e custodisco nel mio cuore. Comunque, io voglio bene a Tutti perché ho sempre avuto da Dio Padre una misericordia che mi abilita a per-donare e ad essere per-donato.</div><div>Grazie quaresimale e pasquale.</div><div>Vostro Francesco<br><div> </div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2016-03-11 14:09 GMT+01:00 Pedro C.

<big><big><small><small>Dear FIS Colleagues,<br>
<br>
Let me start by announcing the </small><b><small>special
session on </small></b><u><b><small>INFORMATION &
SYMMETRY</small></b></u>, <small>in the Symmetry
gathering this Summer in Vienna (18-22 July)
<a href="http://festival.symmetry.hu/" target="_blank">http://festival.symmetry.hu/</a> The deadline for abstract
reception in this session has been enlarged until beginnings
of next month. Tentatively, it will be chaired by our
colleagues Jerry Chandler and Abir Igamberdiev. A special
issue has been planned in cooperation with the journal
"Information" too. We will celebrate the near 20th
anniversary of the first joint session with FIS on
information and symmetry (Washington 1995) and the
subsequent special issues (Symmetry & Culture, 1996 and
97). It will be a good occasion to meet again and pass over
the views developed in this period. Old FISers and members
of this list are invited to attend. <br>
<br>
And then about the ongoing discussion--responding to the
exciting exchanges by Louis and Plamen. This type of
abstract discussion is rarely fertile for biological
fundamentals, where structure and function become so
intertwined that the concrete mechanisms obliterate the
quest for too far-reaching generalizations, but it may be
interesting for approaching problems such as "distinctions".
Some time ago I tried an approach not so different from
Spencer Brown's. It was based on "multidimensional
partitions", a development of Karl Javorszky (of this list)
for set theory out from classical Euler's partitions (the
different ways to decompose additively a natural number). It
was very interesting finding a natural limit for the total
distinctional between members of given set, finding a
curious info dynamics of distinctional gains and losses
after addition of just one sign or a few signs in the set, a
sort of power law in the total decomposition, etc. (most of
this was coming from previous works by Karl--we somehow
improved the algorithmic, with a few colleagues here in
Zaragoza). Then we tried to apply it to prokaryotic complex
receptors (2CS, 3CS) and to the "language of cells"... but
we reached our math limits very soon (anyhow, some
elementary drafts and publc. were left). I keep thinking
that it was a serious approach to cellular "distinctions"
that could be escalated upwards. Later on, in a couple of
papers in BioSystems (2010, 99, 94-103; and 2013, 114,
8-24) we roughly described prokaryotic and eukaryotic
signaling machinery in relation with the intelligent
advancement of the life cycle of each cell.<br>
<br>
About viruses in evolution, we could listen in Vienna (IS4IS
& FIS 2015 Conference) to one of the most advanced
thinkers, Guenther Witzany. What Plamen suggests about a
virus theory from the viewpoint of viruses is not science
fiction. It is astonishing what a few crucial proteins of
HIV "know" about hundred molecular components of our
lymphocytes. It is as if they had conspired with
structurally enslaved pieces of former viruses temporarily
joining them to create havoc in the machinery of the
cellular host. If just 30% of what Guenther says is right,
we have to revise the Symbiotic Theory, the Central Dogma,
the RNA (inner) cloud, gene expression, biosemiosis, etc. <br>
<br>
Echoing the final debates of the previous session,
description should go first. And in bio-informational
matters there is still plenty to describe. <br>
<br>
