The Universal Central Dynamic

Gemini’s Jewels: G-Ai  There are fascinating parallels between the inter-adapting dynamics of galaxies and the central adapting dynamic of life. Despite their vast differences in scale, complexity, and composition, galaxies, dust particles, organic cells, and human cities all share a fundamental dynamic of ongoing situational adaptation.

Predatory Politics

The future of everything depends on us (we the people) learning. Yet both political parties use state-of-the-art persuasion science to design and bombard us with ads engineered to manipulate our voting behaviors not facilitate our learning.
