Today, the lowdown all of you have been waiting for: the continuum of knowlecular structures from knowlecepts to knowleplexes. Actually that’s it–except for knowlecules, the middle inhabitant of the continuum. Knowlecepts are the brains perception of atoms of knowledge in the environment or its “retroception” of those atoms from its memory banks, like a dot of brown in someone’s eye. Knowlecules are molecules of knowledge consisting of clumps of knowlecepts. Ranging greatly in size, they are a record of some more or less unified portion of reality that we take as a thing, such as the brown eye the brown dot is part of, or the individual whose brown eye we’re speaking of. A knowleplex is a more or less organized system of knowlecules, such as some theory of psychology that explains people like our brown-eyed individual. When my theory of psychology gets big enough, I’m sure there will be terms for knowlecules and knowleplexes of different sizes, or which are different in some other way from one another.
One special knowlecule that is very important in my theory is the urceptual knowlecule. That is an innate knowlecule representing something highly important–maybe archetypally important–for the individual. The urceptual other and the urceptual self, I’ve discussed here on more than one occasion, are two good examples. They are what I’ve been involved with elucidating this past week and am getting more and more clear about.
Aside: I took two APCs and a prescription pain pill with an opium derivative in it an hour ago (for the first time in well over a week, I have to assure everyone), so I’m in my manic zone, or almost in it. I had so much to do, things I felt I was ready to be effective with, but was dragging, so I forced myself to take the pills. No sarcasm intended: it’s really hard for me to take these pills. I feel like I’m cheating. But that’s like feeling you’re cheating if you eat. You need in life to find out what puts you at your best and consume it, or do it, or get rid of it, or whatever you have to do about it. The pills seem so far to be working well. I’ve been typing away, and happy with what I’ve been typing, thanks to the opiate. Again I wonder how anyone, particularly a certified psychologist, could read about Grumman’s knowlecepts and not either be convinced that Grumman knew what he was talking about, or was at least worth investigating further to see if what he was talking about made sense. I would hope any such person writing me off in spite of my obvious genius would record his reasons for it. They could only be of value to posterity, for showing the difference between grinds and flakes, regardless of which prove finally right.
Gad, how much I love myself (right now)–and the world, too, for giving me space to be insane in. And now to my book, I hope.
Diary Entry for 20 November 2011, 2 P.M.: I had just finished another page about one of my long division poems (“Mathemaku in Homage to a Classic Haiku”), when the telephone rang. It was my brother Bill. We had a good chat for over half-an-hour, mostlyabout their recent winter storm cum power outage, the Giants, and my upcoming exhibition. I’m feeling okay, but–as usual–have little vim. I worked a short time on my book. I feel good about my theory of urceptual personae, and my ability to make it seem plausible to others, but can’t seem to get going on it the way I should. My blog entry has been posted, made easy by my decision to feature on of my exhibition hand-outs in it. I could call my day’s work satisfactory but hope to get more done on the book. Earlier, I played tennis at Gilchrist Park. I wasn’t very good but my side won the one set, a long one, that I played.
Late note: the stupit Giants lost. I watched them to the bitter end. Almost. I smashed the television right after the Eagles recovered Eli’s fumble. Eli was excellent, though, but his line let him down. After my previous paragraph, I did a little more good work on my book, and got another page on a mathemaku done. More Clancy and Civilization, too. I’m winning my war, but boringly. Can’t seem to really get going, but the nations mine is against, are floundering, too. I got ancient cavalry early. It usually will give me a good lead when I had it. I used it to conquer the Vikings, but was never able otherwise to exploit it.
