Order and chaos.
We live in the feedback in the middle.
The old order is breaking down.
What will emerge?
Three points that could be considered;
Time; As mobile organisms, this sentient interface our body has with its situation functions as a sequence of perceptions, in order to navigate, so our sense of time is the present going past to future, yet the evident reality is that change turns future to past. Tomorrow becomes yesterday, because the earth turns.
There is no dimension of time, because the past is consumed by the present to inform and drive it. Causality and conservation of energy. Cause becomes effect.
God: Ideals are not absolutes.
Truth, beauty, platonic forms are ideals. The core codes, creeds, heroes, narratives at the center of every culture are ideals.
The universal on the other hand, is the elemental. So a spiritual absolute would be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell.
The light shining through the film, than the stories playing out on it.
Money; As linear, goal oriented creatures in this cyclical, circular, reciprocal, feedback generated reality, people see money as signal to save and store, while markets need it to circulate. Consequently Econ 101 describes it as both medium of exchange and store of value.
In your body, blood is the medium, fat is a store. Mix them up and see how long you live. It's a cultural Ebola virus.
Roads are a medium, parking lots are a store. If we treated roads like we treat money, everything would be paved over and we would be fighting over the lots.
The hallway is a medium, the hall closet is as tore. The average five year old understands the difference.
So there is a lot left to learn. That the old is breaking down might be a good time to examine how reality functions, not just buy whatever cultural brand is on sale.
