adjacency - between - 2024 state of the climate report - scientists warning - political polarization - Trump reelection - climate communication - cognitive dissonance - adjacency relationship - The scientists warning are having limited effect as a tool for mass climate communications - The fact that so many people are supporting climate denying candidates like Trump demonstrates the cognitive dissonance and lack of effective climate communications strategy - It is insightful to analyze from 4P knowledge framework: - propositional knowledge - perspectival knowledge - participatory knowledge - procedural knowledge - Every person is situated and located somewhere unique and specific in life - 4 P knowledge is concurrent - When climate scientists communicate propositional knowledge via mass media, it is a kind of broadcast message that can lose salience if the other 3 types of knowledge have a mismatch: - without perspectival knowledge context, the knowledge can have no meaning or priority - without procedural knowledge, the knowledge is theoretical and does not lead to a better life - without participatory knowledge, the receiver feels alienated

for - question - what would Federic Faggin think of this? - question - multi-scale communication - question - are Tibetan Rainbow body and knowing time of death examples of multi-scale communications? question - what would Federic Faggin think of this? - He comes from an experiential perspective, not just an intellectual one.

question - what would Federic Faggin think of this? - I don't think Michael Levin provides a satisfactory answer to this and this is related to the meaning crisis modernity finds itself in - when traditional religions no longer suffice, - but there is nothing in modernity that can fill the gap yet, if mortality salience is a big issue - I don't think an intellectual answer can meet the needs of people suffering in the meaning crisis, although it is necessary, it is not sufficient - I think they are after some kind of nonverbal, nondual transformative experience

question - multi-scale communication - This is also a question about multi-scale communication - I've recently used a metaphor to compare - the unitary, monatic experience of consciousness to - an elected government - The trillions of cells "elect" consciousness" as the high level government to oversea them - but we seem to be in the situation of the government being out of touch with the citizens - At one time in our history, was it common to be able for - high level consciousness to communicate directly with - low level cells and subcellular structures? - If so, why has this practice disappeared and - how can we re-establish it?

question - Are Tibetan Rainbow body and knowing time of death examples of multi-scale communications? - In some older spiritual traditions such as found in the East, it seems deep meditative practitioners are able to achieve a degree of communications with parts of their body that is unconventional and surprising to modern researchers - For example, Tibetan meditators report of having the abiity to predict the time of their death by recognizing subtle bodily, interoceptive signals - Rare instances also occur of the Rainbow Body, when great meditators in the Dzogchen tradition whose body at time of death can disappear in a body of light

adjacency - between - ecology of communications - Nora Bateson -:Indyweb - Deep Humanity - adjacency relationship - The author summarised the salient points of a Nate Hagen Great Simplification interview with Nora Bateson on the subject of an ecology of communications - It addresses the need to use language to speak on to multiple contexts of the conversants. - The epistemologically-foundational ideas of - people centered and - interpersonal information - of the indyweb / Indranet architecture are based on the Deep Humanity ideas of - individual / collective gestalt - each individual's unique lebenswelts - the multi-meaningverse inherent in any group - symmathesetic fingerprint - perspectival knowing - salience mismatch inherent in communication due to - encoding meaning from one unique meaningverse/ lebenswelts to common language code - deciding meaning from another unique meaningverse / lebenswelt

If the federal government had access to every email you’ve ever written and every phone call you’ve ever made, it’s almost certain that they could find something you’ve done which violates a provision in the 27,000 pages of federal statues or 10,000 administrative regulations. You probably do have something to hide, you just don’t know it yet.

• for: climate crisis - air travel, climate crisis - triage approach, climate communications - SRG suggestion - energy diet

• comment

  • Kevin's use of the term triage is aligned to a Stop Reset Go strategy of reframing the challenges in the next few years in terms of a potentially temporary energy diet
  • That may be more palatable for transition for people accustomed to the existing high carbon lifestyle culture to accept
  • The potential of developing alternative energy resources plus a shift to low energy / high efficiency lifestyle could get us to the target and provide incentive for a drastic energy consumption cut

• for: SRG energy diet, climate communications - suggestion - SRG energy diet

• comment

  • This statement once again echos the idea of a temporary energy diet as a way to reframe the challenges we face
  • There are potential clean high energy density replacements for fossil fuels but they will take time to develop. Meanwhile, an energy diet is recommended
  • This means we must adapt to a much lower intensity world, at least temporarily
  • We would need to calculate the numbers to see what such a future looks like and what steps must be taken to get there

• podcast: Planet Critical

• host: Rachel Donald

• title: Overthrowing the Ruling Class: The Green Democratic Revolution

• summary

  • This is a very insightful interview with James Schneider, communications officer of Progressive International on the scales of political change required to advert our existential Poly / meta / meaning crisis.
  • James sees 3 levels of crisis
    • ordinary crisis emerging from a broken system
    • larger wicked problems that cannot be solved in isolation
    • the biggest umbrella crisis that covers all others - the last remaining decades of the fossil fuel system,
      • due to peak oil but accelerated by
      • climate crisis
  • There has to be a paradigm shift on governance, as the ruling elites are driving humanity off the cliff edge
  • This is not incremental change but a paradigm shift in governance
  • To do that, we have to adopt an anti-regime perspective, that is not reinforcing the current infective administrative state, otherwise, as COVID taught us, we will end up driving the masses to adopt hard right politicians
  • In order to establish the policies that are aligned to the science, the people and politicians have to be aligned.
  • Voting in candidates who champion policies aligned to science is a leverage point.
  • That can only be done if the citizenry is educated enough to vote for such politicians
  • So there are two parallel tasks to be done:
    • mass education program to educate citizens
    • mass program to encourage candidates aligned to climate science to run for political office

• for: accelerating foundation models in non-human communication, non-human communication - anthropogenic impacts, species extinction - AI communication tools, conservation - AI communication tools

• comment

  • imagine the empathy we can realize to help slow down climate change and species extinction by communicating and listening to the feedback from other species about what they think of our species impacts on their world!

• for: climate communication, mass mobilization, collective action, climate messaging, beauty, evolution
• claim
  • the natural world is sexy, beautiful, and it would be a waste to have it all destroyed
  • the entire biosphere is made out of female desire for no reason to it
    • not with an objective of reproducing
      • but just with an objective of wow that's really sexy I like it
    • and that's a very very good reason isn't it to to save the planet
  • these beautiful qualities that have no Rhyme or Reason to them but are actually to do with creativity and Imagination
    • are not some kind of special thing that human beings impose from some kind of abstract Heaven onto Earth
    • they are actually heaven on Earth
    • they're part of Heaven and they are coming out of our embodied biological being right and this is an amazing thing
      • pity and
      • compassion and
      • generosity
    • and all these things are are traits in primates
      • sharing things and
      • being kind right
    • and so I reckon you know the kind of religious feeling that we need to inculcate
    • it is actually about this feeling inside
      • this kind of surging feeling of
        • inspiration and
        • love and
        • passion
      • and everything is exactly coming to us from our Evolution and
      • it's coming for no reason at all
      • it's just coming from random genetic mutation and the fact that having these feelings doesn't kill you
    • so this is a very good reason I think to save Earth
    • the essence of us is
      • our future and
      • our physical biological being
    • and it's always just a little bit off to the side like tomorrow is just a little bit off to the side of today
      • but I'm going to get there at some point right and
      • I think that's the attitude

• for: William Blake, poem, evolution, beauty, climate communication, motivation
  • William Blake Poem
    • The Divine Image
      • To Mercy, pity, peace and love all pray in their distress and in these virtues of delight return their thankfulness
      • when push comes to shove as they say in English
      • when you're up against the wall when you're in an extreme situation
        • someone's going to hit you and what do you do? Mercy Mercy you just say it or
        • you see someone else, they're about to hit someone and you say for pity's sake don't do that or
        • you find somebody very, very attractive and you feel this love right?
      • that's why he says
        • love the human form Divine
        • mercy has a human heart
        • pity a human face
        • love the human form Divine
      • these things are actually almost spontaneous intuitive things that happen and what does it mean?
        • they come from the biosphere
        • they come from your body
        • they come from evolution
      • it's very, very clear for example that art and language ritual comes from at least as far back as primates

• for: climate communication, crisis communication
• claim
  • global warming is the biggest problem on the planet therefore
    • we have to make it be the most attractive sexiest ever problem to solve

• for: climate communications, crisis communications,
  • one of the reasons why we don't do it is that
    • we think there needs to also be a sudden huge change inside
    • but actually there doesn't need to be a sudden age change inside at all
    • that thing is funnily enough getting in the way
  • An awful lot of people who write about ecological things in the newspaper are preventing you from being ecological
  • I know that sounds a bit rude to my to my colleagues you know who write editorials for newspapers
    • but it I'm afraid it's true because you know
    • you look at page one of the newspaper and basically it says
      • you're stupid right ?
      • it gives you a whole bunch of facts that you didn't know
        • in the form mostly of quite raw data
        • it just sort of dumps the data on you which we don't do about
      • anything else we don't do it about?
        • we don't do it about racism
        • we don't do it about economics
      • we don't just dump data on on page one but we do do it regarding global warming and I think that's a bit of a problem
    • then you go on to the middle of the newspaper and you get to the editorial section
    • and the editorial section is saying
      • you're evil
      • you're a bad person
      • you're not being ecological enough
    • stupid and evil is not a good place from which to launch a successful politics or ethics or any kind of creativity
    • what is creativity fundamentally?
    • it's inviting the future
    • creativity means you're allowing the future to be different from the past doesn't it?
      • because you're creating something (new)
      • that's what creating means
      • and in order to do it successfully you actually have to be incredibly gentle

The white fellas learned very quickly from the Romans that the first thing you attack is other people's religious beliefs, which are the modern day equivalent of communication towers. That's how oral societies communicate their knowledge and culture.

Such a powerful shift.

Could sub out mass transportation with open scholarly infrastructure! ... "Useful mass transportation doesn’t suddenly appear. It is carefully nurtured from a tiny seedling of a good idea to a fully-formed organism that breathes life into a city. It is a process that takes time and effort and patience as well as money."

Definition of communications

Explanation of communications

There are some commonly reported misconceptions about revolutions and coups, particularly with respect to military take overs of television and newspapers, that the average reader may wish to familiarize themselves with as they enter this area. One of the best resources I've seen for this is a recent recap by On The Media.

STM encourages "reputation management".

This sounds like the kind of platforms I'd like to have. Reminiscent of some of the discussion at the beginning of TWIG: 379 Ixnay on the Eet-tway.
