"Some discussions of memetica will turn to being and non-being – ‘memetica ecologica’ as the latest name for being as we know it, when ‘it’ also includes our knowing. And then we can’t say, ‘then there is non-being’. I mean, we can say that, but then none of us ‘see it over there’. If ‘it’ is ‘non-being’ then ‘it isn’t’. Noticeably we can have a word and concept for something that does not exist, something that transcends our total sense of being and totality.
How is it that we can come up with such concepts? This must point to beyond ourselves as we know ourselves and beyond (‘beyond’ including ‘within’) our sense of the universe." -Fragments of Memetica, No. 18 [20201130] Comments are closed.
