<div dir="ltr">Dear all,<div><br></div><div>The discussion on code I found interesting, but I did not see enough specificity for it to lead me anywhere useful. For example, how exactly is code constructed (what are its 'universals' or 'primitives')?, who is constructing it?, who is interpreting it?, and to what end exactly? These seem like basic issues I did not see named (did I miss it?)</div><div><br></div><div>The discussion on duality I have a similar reaction, interesting, but where is it headed?, what are key dualist constituents (primitives)?, are we speaking of simple binary (1,0) ways of thinking, or? The problem with any dualist view I have seen is that they are not innately creative – it is 'input' and 'output' thinking (in a most general sense), it cannot get to 'input', 'processing', and 'output' needed for creativity. This dates way back to Pre-Socratic dialectic logic . . .  It is for this reason that I have always had problems with Joe's LIR (Logic in Reality) – last I checked it was STILL an essentially dualist model . . . and then 'processing' often becomes a challenging Black Box.</div><div><br></div><div>I posted a dualist-triune approach that does cover creativity, and which has abundant evidence. For those interested, it is covered in my IS4SI talk, which can be viewed here: </div><div><a href="https://youtu.be/2rS9uT08YP8">https://youtu.be/2rS9uT08YP8</a><br></div><div>A cursory companion paper (5.5 pages) can be found here (sans references):</div><div><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VoNCuIE2KcDWRV92iKFR4zevIcTQcQmP/view?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VoNCuIE2KcDWRV92iKFR4zevIcTQcQmP/view?usp=sharing</a><br></div><div>A more detailed companion paper (10 pages) can be found here (with references):</div><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r1eGAe_1lkXPGbS2cVoja4n6CyGtzVlW/view?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r1eGAe_1lkXPGbS2cVoja4n6CyGtzVlW/view?usp=sharing</a><br class="gmail-Apple-interchange-newline"><div><br></div><div>I look forward to further thoughts on dualist thinking and hope this material somehow adds to the dialogue.</div><div><br></div><div><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-size:14px;font-family:proxima-nova-1,proxima-nova-2,Tahoma,Helvetica,Verdana,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;border-spacing:0px;color:rgb(51,51,51);line-height:18px"><tbody style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><tr style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><td style="padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-size:0px;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;width:auto;height:30px"> </td></tr><tr style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><td style="padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;width:auto"><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;line-height:0"><a href="http://about.me/marcus.abundis?promo=email_sig" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;color:rgb(43,130,173);text-decoration:none;display:inline-block" target="_blank"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;border-spacing:0px"><tbody style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><tr style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline"><td align="left" valign="top" style="padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:top;width:auto;line-height:1"><img alt="--" width="0" height="0" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;display:block;width:0px;height:0px;overflow:hidden"><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-weight:bold;font-style:inherit;font-size:18px;font-family:proxima-nova-1,Proxima-Nova,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline;line-height:1;color:rgb(51,51,51)">Marcus Abundis</div><div style="margin:3px 0px 0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-size:12px;font-family:proxima-nova-1,Proxima-Nova,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline"><img alt="http://" width="0" height="0" style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;outline:0px;font-style:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;display:block;width:0px;hei
