Dear Mr. Merryman,
Your view that evolution defines the nature of information is one that I pick up in my essay as well.
You say: 'If conceptual errors become incorporated into the framework, they become part of the lens through which further information is viewed and the resulting distortions become natural, ie. intuitive to that mindset.'
Thus, we are defined by evolution, and I follow this train of thought and define what I call a 'Species Cosmos.'
Your description of time tells me you are inherently describing a vortex, as I am: I'm sure we can both agree that the binary relationship is identical to the relationship between the two halves of any vortex.
As you'll see - with interest, I hope - I re-visit physics' assumptions in a way that results in the description of the field of observation as consisting of three Principal Vortices - Inorganic, Organic, and Sensory Cognitive - that have no direct interactions but are minutely correlated over the course of Evolution.
We set down borders, and evolution is such that we perpetually have to correct the location of these borders - with the result that, as you say, 'Generalized perspective does blur the fine detail and loses some information, just as a detailed view limits the broad perspective.'
Thus, we are perpetually involved in a Cosmos with blurred edges - or, as I put it, Zones of varying dimensionality.
Since you sense that the distinction between classic reality and its quantum foundations must contain a missing link, I think you will agree with me that my paradigm incorporates organisms and cognition into the field of observation in a well-defined structure that solves the problem.
In the correlated Inorganic, Organic, and Sensory Cognitive Vortex System, I show that each vortex exchanges energy with a greater field (a General Field of Cosmae) in a very similar way, thus producing the three Vortices' correlation with each other.
This distinction and correlation essentially creates three 'mini-universes', in which the inner space of particles is sub-divided into States of varying dimensionality. As these Inorganic, Organic, and Sensory-Cognitive particles then aggregate into their distinct and corresponding Vortices, their States are expanded into three corresponding and correlated environments.
Thus, I show that the correlation of the three Vortices produces the perceived Cosmos - a Human Species Cosmos that includes the Observer, and incorporates the same Zones of dimensionality found in the three types of distinct Particles.
The missing link, then, is the simple aggregation of particles in three distinct Vortices that are in perpetual Correlation within a General Field of Energy.
Of course, this is very brief - but I believe you will find the fuller account to be quite logically deduced and useful.
I enjoyed reading your essay, and have rated it accordingly. I look forward to hearing your views in due course.
Best of luck!
