          without re-presenting my entire approach. I understand your
          desire to avoid dualism, but dualism is a part of physics, of
          our world. There is thus "bad" dualism, which brings in
          invidious distinctions and separations. "Good" dualism 
          recognizes the fundamental difference between what is
          (primarily) actual and (primarily) potential, as well as the
          movement from one to the other, and between many other real
          pairs.</font></div>

          share <i>some</i> of one another's properties, as do parts
          and wholes and so on, without conflation.</font></div>

          magnetic polarity are real and influence the way we exist and
          feel neurologically, and cognitively. Another example is what
          is called colloquially "up" and "down" nuclear spin, and there
          is some thought that some sub-atomic particles are self-dual.
          I have even suggested that a form of self-duality may exist at
          cognitive levels of reality. </font></div>

          Perhaps the best strategy is to keep an open mind on the

                the consensus referred to in recent notes is that if it
                exists, it  is doing more harm than good. I therefore
                propose “bracketing” it, following the suggestion of
                Husserl for human experience, but with a different 
                objective. I would replace the current consensus by a
                recognition that any reasonable description of complex
                phenomena, such as information processes, has both an
                ontic and an epistemic component. These components are
                not static but change and evolve. The epistemic
                component is usually recognized and accepted. That it is
                accompanied dynamically by a physical, energetic change.
                The extrapolation of physical properties to cognitive is
                obviously considered in neurology but not adequately in

                might be that the suggested ontic-epistemic

                              relations among logical tokens, even if we
                              create such logical tokens as nondescript
                              as we can, in the form of natural numbers.

                              units, even in that environment, a-priori
                              existing relations pop up, as soon as we
                              do anything with them which a child would
                              do when bored, like ordering, sorting ad
                              resorting these same tokens. We cannot

                                      <div> Dear Pedro and FIs
                                        Colleagues, <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> You raised an interesting
                                        and important issue of emotions
                                        in art. This made me think about
                                        how it is that art
                                        evokes/intensifies our emotions.
                                        <br>
                                        From my research it follows that
                                        art (the essence of art) in the
                                        most general/abstract sense is
                                        the compression of information
                                        (contained in a work of art)
                                        thanks to which our perception
                                        saves energy, becomes more
                                        economical (cost-effective),
                                        e.g. a shorter text is more
                                        economical/compressed than a
                                        longer one containing the same
                                        amount of information. Thanks to
                                        this saving of energy (effort)
                                        we feel satisfaction, pleasure.
                                        This pleasure is related to our
                                        development, because saving
                                        energy obviously contributes to
                                        our development, which is our
                                        greatest value. <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> These positive emotions
                                        related to our development can
                                        be considered abstract because
                                        they have no “direction”, they
                                        do not concern any concrete
                                        sphere of reality but the
                                        abstract development itself
                                        (increase in complexity). These
                                        absolutely abstract emotions,
                                        however, always occur in
                                        conjunction with more or less
                                        concrete realities, because we
                                        cannot experience both absolute
                                        abstraction and absolutely
                                        abstract (pure) art. The
                                        diversity of art comes from the
                                        necessity of the presence of
                                        different concrete
                                        realms/objects/media of reality
                                        in works of art. Each work/type
                                        of art speaks differently about
                                        what they have in common - what
                                        art is in essence, which is
                                        contrast, complexity,
                                        compression of information,
                                        development or value. <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> <br>
                                      </div>
                                      <div> The type of emotion depends
                                        on what specific realm of
                                        reality the compression of
                                        information refers to. If it is,
                                        for example, a landscape painted
                                        by an artist, we should like it
                                        more than an (uncompressed)
                                        natural landscape. The same is
                                        the case with all other emotions
                                        - they are intensified thanks to
                                        the compression of information -
                                        associated with them. The most
                                        abstract art is music, which is
                                        why it is often difficult for us
                                        to associate it with
                                        known/conscious emotions.
                                        However, connections with
                                        reality also occur here, mainly
                                        in the structural sphere. That
                                        is why, for example, different
                                        pieces of music are performed on
                                        different occasions. To sum up,
                                        we can say that art can be made
                                        of anything if we include
                                        information compression.
                                        However, compression alone does
                                        not tell us about the value/size
                                        of art because one can compress
                                        a larger (more difficult to
                                        compress/organize) area or a
                                        smaller area to the same degree.
                                        The compressed larger area (of
                                        information) has more complexity
                                        and aesthetic value, which can
                                        be equated with value in general
                                        - as discussed in the
                                        presentation. <br>
                                        <br>
                                        P.S. As a budding artist and art
                                        theorist I encountered a
                                        knowledge of art that relied
                                        mainly on closer and further
                                        metaphors. There was also a
                                        belief that only such knowledge
                                        was possible. For example, it
                                        was said that a work of art
                                        "gives us energy" which of
                                        course was treated as a
                                        metaphor. The attempt to
                                        understand this metaphor led me
                                        to the conclusion that it is not
                                        about receiving energy but about
                                        saving it and that energy is not
                                        a metaphor but a physical value,
                                        which was confirmed by studies
                                        in perception, information
                                        theory and physics. <br>

                                        <div> Dear Mariusz and FIs
                                          Colleagues, </div>
                                        <div> <br>
                                        </div>
                                        <div> May I disturb this calm
                                          vacation state and introduce
                                          some "contrast"? For the sake
                                          of the discussion, the Theory
                                          & Practice of Contrast
                                          presented may be considered as
                                          a pretty valid approach to
                                          visual arts, also extended to
                                          a diversity of other fields in
                                          science & humanities. let
                                          me warn that the overextension
                                          of a decent paradigm is a
                                          frequent cause of weakening
                                          the initial paradigm itself.
                                          The Darwinian cosmovision is a
                                          good example. One can read in
                                          a book of Peter Atkins: <i> “</i>
                                          <i>A great deal of the
                                            universe does not need any
                                            explanation. Elephants, for
                                            instance. Once molecules
                                            have learnt to compete and
                                            to create other molecules in
                                            their own image, elephants,
                                            and things resembling
                                            elephants, will in due
                                            course be found roaming
                                            around the countryside</i> <i>...
                                          </i> <i>Some of the things
                                            resembling elephants will be
                                            men.”  </i>I am not
                                          comfortable at all with that
                                          type of bombastic paradigm
                                          overextension--but maybe it is
                                          my problem. Finally it is the
                                          explanatory capability of the
                                          attempt what counts (which in
                                          Atkins case is close to nil).
                                          In any case, the co-ligation
                                          of disciplines is a tough
                                          matter not very well
                                          solved/articulated yet. <br>

                                        <div> Let me change gears. My
                                          main concern with arts stems
                                          from their close relationships
                                          with emotions. I remember a
                                          strange personal experience.
                                          In a multidisciplinary
                                          gathering (scientists &
                                          artists) time ago, there was a
                                          small concert in an ancient
                                          chapel. Cello and electronic
                                          music together--great
                                          performers. In the middle of
                                          the concert, for unknown
                                          reasons, I started to feel
                                          sad, very sad. I was very
                                          absorbed in the music and
                                          could not realize having had
                                          any other bad interfering
                                          remembrance. Then I discretely
                                          looked at the person aside me,
                                          a lady. She was in tears,
                                          quite openly. I realized it
                                          was the music effect. Quite a
                                          few of the audience after the
                                          end of the concert were with
                                          red eyes... Some years later,
                                          in some biomedical research of
                                          my team on laughter (the
                                          analysis of its auditory
                                          contents as a helpful tool in
                                          the diagnosis of depression)
                                          we stumbled on Manfred Clynes
                                          "sentic forms". Some of the
                                          basic emotions can be clearly
                                          distinguished in ad hoc
                                          acoustic patterns, as well in
                                          tactile expression. (He made
                                          and sold a few gadgets about
                                          that). To make a long story
                                          short, we found the most
                                          important sentic forms in the
                                          sounds of laughter, including
                                          the "golden mean" in the
                                          expression of joyful laughs.
