The role of motion is to correct errors ie to generate control forces that return the system to the optimum, which we take to be maximum entropy measured by a semantic (rather than purely additive [linear]) algorithm, ie an algorithm aware of the power of permutation.
What if a lawyer is required to come up with a definition of love that docs [The Department of Community Services] can use: that these two share one mind by true communication.
The accounts are the fixed points in the flow of money.

The world is run by people who are in a position to create their own reality, rather than by engineers who must build on the reality that is given to them.

Our principal problem is people who make their own reality while ignoring the real reality, This is the error / crime /sin of hubris, something that George Bush and his cohort suffered from severely Sheehan: Reality based community.

Kasperkevic / Robin Chase: 'Entrepreneurs should build the world they want to see.' Jana Kasperkevic
I can see logically that I must become an entrepreneur to realize my ideas, to collect the resources necessary for realizing the entrepreneurial idea, No I am beginning to even feel a bit entrepreneurial having been reminded, by a dose of cancer, that life is bounded at both ends. The esprit d'entrepreneur
is giving me motivation to begin to seriously document the idea as natural theology, This is some years of writing but it is the foundation of the whole project which can then be abstracted for shorter and more concise expressions of the model.Zygon: the six theorem paper. Theorems as Turing machines,
The foundation of the world I want to see is the world I do see.
God = the whole system of reality, including the system of the Universe. And also the system of the Universe includes God. They are identical. We are surfing on divine dynamics, ie dynamics defined by the via negativa.

What is marijuana doing to my neural network. It seems to have the effect of eliciting things, ie fixed pints in the mental dynamics that last long enough to be written down, like this one.
A symbol is a point in message space.
Bell Telephone: First the free exploration and then the detailed implementation, engineering an idea. The invention of computers (an engineered idea) hase made the engineering of ideas much easier because practicable ideas can be simulated in software.
We begin with six theorems that define a space bounded by self contradiction, ie a space of consistent mathematics. The task then is to see how this formal idea is implemented in reality.
Top be a pub lic intellectual: a public theologian.
The fundamental dynamic duals may be competition vs cooperation, ie disharmony vs harmony. Quantum mechanics weaves harmonies and we only observe fixed points, that is intervals in the harmony, spectral lines.
I am flying high on a housefull of books all of which have contributed to me in their own ways but have now become history in the light of the new system of the world. A network interpretation of general relativity, three spatial dimensions to avoid crossed wires and one time /phase dimension to parametrize the process.
Gravitation controls the flow of entropy / information. It sees only energy, the rate of flow of communication / proces 'cycles' per time.

Nerd the0logy, or theology for software engineers. Our foundation is the Csntorian principle of symmetry with respect to complexity, which means we can learn about complex systems by studying simple ones, and the simplest systems within our cultural tradition are God, the vacuum and the initial singualarity. In our discussions each of them throws light on the other. On the other hand, being absolutely simple, there is nothing to say about them [, nothing to distinguish them] and all we can talk about are their fixed point which are in a sense what they are not in that they have measure zero in the whole action.
Although the power of Turing machines is limited compares to the transfinite domain, maybe we can make up for this by having a large number of instances of each machine, eg each atom.

The scientific method regulates the interface between imagination and reality. Many of enjoy books that incorporate magical events [and outrageous coincidences] but very few see them as true accounts of reality that can be relied upon in matters of life and death.

Lord Acton: 'The issue that has swept down the centuries and will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus

the banks.' Quoted in Carlton, SMH 19/7/2014 Mike Carlton
Activities are successful if we can plan an optimum step by step approach to achieving the desired outcome. This sort of thing goes on in all walks of life, but reaches a certain formal clarity in the process of software engineering, that is programming a machine or set of machines to move from a certain initial state (now) to compute what things will be like then [using deterministic algorithms ie Turing machines].
An engineer begins with the way things sae (which is our working definition of God) and attempts to construct a new reality of some sort. This may not be very clear when exploring the future but we can look back on a long history of engineering successe and some important and educative failures. >small>Tacoma Narrows Bridge Collapse, Tacoma Narrows Bridge (1940) - Wikipedia
Is fossil fuel a failure? Now we know that it is for the future but it has brought us to where we are.
Hardware and software engineering are symbols of the difference between layers, the lower layer acting as hardware to be manipulated by the higher layer.
