Envolution Metaphors for Functional Complexity |
Complexity 0: Multiverse vs Universe: The Problem of Existence and Non-Existence (what to exist => material systems: macro dissipation, micro replication) |
Complexity 1: Universe vs Galaxy Systems: The Problem of Dissipation and Replication (how to dissipate and how to replicate = time, energy versus space, matter) |
Complexity 2: Galaxy Systems vs Star Systems: The Problem of Stability and Instability (what to make(replicate) stable and what not to make(dissipate) stable) |
Complexity 3: Star Systems vs Planet Systems: The Problem of Control and Non-Control (what to control (replicate) and what not to control (dissipate)) |
Complexity 4: Planet Systems vs Gaia: The Problem of Inheritance and Non-inheritance (what to inherit (replicate) and what not to inherit (dissipate)) |
Complexity 5: Gaia vs Hypersea: The Problem of Mortality (what to live somatically (replicate) and what to die somatically (dissipate)) |
Complexity 6: Hypersea vs Metaman: The Problem of Knowledge (what to know (replicate) and what not to know (dissipate)) |
Complexity 7: Metaman vs Cybersocieties: The Problem of Learning (what to learn (replicate) and what not to learn (dissipate)) |
