Thank you for the kind words. I look forward to reading your entire essay and commenting on it.

All the best,

Dear Branko,

I am interested in how we perceive this unchanging, immutable mathematical universe.

I will read your essay and comment on it.

All the best,

Noson Yanofsky

A lot to think about Noson...

It seems to add up to "you can't step on the same Ship of Theseus twice" to paraphrase Anaximander. A wonderfully detailed answer to the posed problems. I especially like the thought at the end of needing to study the way we study the universe. That is really the essence of the learning game, to see the universe in or as yourself while seeing the universe as it is without your own biases.

Yours is probably one of the last essays I'll read and rate this round. I would enjoy knowing what you think of mine. It's about what goes to infinity and what gets contained.

All the Best,

Jonathan

    Now while I have a little time...

    I wanted to comment that your remark in the abstract about the mind gathering and sifting through information prompts thoughts about hemispheric specialization in the brain and the tendency to split functionality along those lines. One side tends to how things come together and the other focuses on how the pieces can be teased apart. Again; an excellent essay that I will have to re-read when I have more time.

    Be Well,

    Jonathan
