I look forward to reading enlivening revisions of Joscha's Wikipedia profile in due course. 😀

The overlaps with academia are extremely telling as well. The way this series of emails transitions from AI to skull measuring to eugenics and fascism really shows why these people have worked so hard to exclude everyone but white men from their “safe spaces”:

Nice to know that this is what these are the “great” ideas these people are all spewing at each other
i my self believe that african music, westrn music, chinese music are a window into the the structure of those layers.. western rigid, african primitve, chinese nature based, . I belive that synphoic moments best describe your layering, they open with a basic simple melody, after it is learned, it is repeated and" developed", inverted, distorted, related, etc. the development stage take a long time. then there is a recapitlaltion of the whole. and its inter and intra actions. . african musci has lots of beats. and little development. - no accident, it mirrors their learning process. Interesting question if music is somehow indicative of genetically defined prefs, but I am not sure. It could be path effects, starting in culture. too many people, so many mass executions of the elderly and infirm make sense is the fundamental fact that everyone dies at some time make it imporrisbole to ask so why not earlier. if the brain discards unused neurons, why shold society keep their equivalent The radical idea of treating individuals in a society as cells and the society itself as a well-organized organism is fascism, or course. Probably the most efficient and rationally stringent way of governance, if someone could pull it off in a sustainable way; and if it is aggressive and expansive, its efficiency makes it a virus that everybody will want to stomp out. Fascism makes romantic doo-gooders like me very uncomfortable (I visited KZ Buchenwald five times and it had a profound influence on me; we East Germans inoculated ourselves very thoroughly against fascism), and the general public will not be willing to consider it.
