A gentle introduction on why Geneosophy is needed. Dr. John Computationalist, a computer scientist, sits across from Dr. Marcus Doubtful, a physicist turned philosopher. John: Look, Marcus, I think you're being way too doom-and-gloom about where we're headed. Yeah, sure, we don't have all
I'm particularly fond of the term intrication. It's fascinating to discover that in French, quantum entanglement is referred to as intrication — just imagine the elegance of pronouncing it with a French accent. Intrication carries a profound significance that goes beyond mere entanglement. It evokes the idea
I am currently working on Formal Geneosophy, which deals with the practical applications of Theoretical Geneosophy. I was tempted to describe the tools developed within Formal Geneosophy as the Algebra of Possibilities. However, algebra deals with actualities, or the manipulation of numbers and equations. In fact, the term "algebra&
Now that Geneosophy is complete and I can give a coherent account of its assumptions and implications, I find it useful to be able to compare Geneosophy with the ideas of other thinkers. It is a bit like having a discussion with Bergson, at least as close as it gets.
Consciousness is the holy grail of our quest to comprehend who we are. We feel conscious, there is no doubt about it. But understanding consciousness has been outside our reach so far. It is a strange state of affairs, we have elucidated so many mysteries about the world, thanks to
Science is considered to be at the pinnacle of human achievements, a truth seeking enterprise of rationality and objectivity, based on the scientific method introduced by Galileo. Given the innumerable successes of science, one does not feel the need to take a leap of faith when embarking in the scientific
Metaphorically speaking, understanding Geneosophy requires embarking on a voyage to explore a previously unknown continent and dedicating oneself to learn the habits, customs and laws of the local population. It is an impossible journey for those who do not like to travel, those who are happy with their beliefs, those
The metaphor of the puzzle can be applied to any of the sciences, although in neuroscience it is more evident. In neuroscience, we are faced with many objects that are considered part of the field: the neuron, the organs such as the cortex, the hippocampus, basal ganglia, etc. Going down
A comprehensive comprehension framework, based on a system of beliefs (SOB-G), that you use to make sense of all your concepts (included the concept of you) and objects (i.e. what you now call reality), without encountering mysteries and paradoxes. That's G.
We could introduce Geneosophy in many ways. We could try to explain what Geneosophy is or how it can be used. To give you a sense of why Geneosophy is needed, we will instead describe a very common sensation. A sensation you experience when you observe the world. When you
From the beginning humankind has tried to answer questions about ourselves and the world. Historically, these questions found different answers in religion, philosophy and the sciences. Humankind has changed immensely since it started asking these questions: empires have been born and ended, languages emerged and died, technical skills developed to
Geneosophy is the answer to many questions, one being: how can an organism such as a human, interacting with its environment, generate its reality and its knowledge? Hence the name: “gennao” in ancient Greek means “to generate”, “Sophia” means “knowledge.” Traditionally, philosophy is supposed to answer such questions. Why then
10 years ago, I started a journey with the goal of fixing the Internet (Web and Apps). I took a detour into Philosophy, Neuroscience, Mathematics and Programming. And in the past 2 years, with some help as a sounding board, I ended up facing a new Worldview. I now see
