Ep. 8 - Multiplicity and Coherence


Listen Later

We're back! In Episode 8, G and R jam on "Multiplicity and Coherence."

Covered:

  • We start with "multiplicity" - exploration of meaning, many Michael Keatons; also: visualizing atomic and cellular multiplicity and coherence
  • We then move to "coherence" - an exploration of meaning (external and internal), key themes: connection and "co"herence (in contrast to "adherence); "nonduel" and "nondual"
  • Ways of observing, assessing, measuring, recognizing coherence
  • Unifying themes here (also, the core functions?) of observation and perspective (see also: quantum physics and the power, influence of witness)

Wait, there's more!

  • What about the relationship between individuated forms and the elasticity of forms?
  • What about the relationship between coherence and uncertainty tolerance?
  • Metaperspectives on multiplicity and coherence as process!
  • Jamming on unique frameworks, hyperstructures of meaning, containers, therapeutic models, and symbols
  • The role of the observer in understanding and integrating various aspects of the self (self-coherence/identity)
  • The coherence between somatic and intellectual intelligences... how we connect with each, know where we are, and tune in more holistically...

And still, even more!

  • Zooming in and zooming out - an important skill to develop
  • Consideration of the various relationship between individual and collective humanity - "stigmergy" and calling back to our episode with Bee Mayhew (Ep. 2)
  • The slow existential and spending time in definition, meaning = important (that's why this podcast exists, lol)
  • Coherence as process and part of larger process(es) - fractal connection, anyone?
  • The dynamic nature of identity and change
  • Coherence as fine grained felt sense AND alignment with choice, intention, self-determinism...
