second most popular of 723, beaten by Curtis 5ya .. which is how i found him
Nick Land is a British philosopher living in Shanghai. Nick is one of the main figures in the school of thought known as accelerationism. He is currently writing a book about the philosophical implications of Bitcoin. We talked about accelerationism, cybernetics, ideology, the evolution of Nick’s perspective, Deleuze and Guattari, emancipation and dehumanization, artificial intelligence, capitalism, Moldbug, mathematics and the significance of zero, religion, blockchain/Bitcoin, Kantianism, synthetic time, and more.
5th minute [or thereabouts]: "horseshoe" [minute 8 2 15 3x as it turns out]
.. and indeed, neither of the simply 'polinary' ends/ideals can manifest without the ones of the other but one doesn't realize this until the switcheroo between beginning and end is noticed .. and this entire convo is faithful to the thought experiment of integrating blocks of time with flows of space .. the time of impossible border patrol necessary when the time comes to quarantine urbanities in order recallibrate and blunt their all too ...'ubiquirite sprite' [kwi or kwy, that's the proof of urbanity's unscalability, hidden from radial rectificatons wether voluntary or imposed {palestinians managing ziopenwalls and tsjekpillaryposts or not}], their all too prickly spikestudded spite on and from books kept grudgeful and full of unbalancing acts n pacts are just so many bitters gone wrong .. or in the wrong hands .. like monkhoards broken into by addicts.
Urbanity's gone tox verzion's last stands are unwell unwalls .. tecwalls protected and defended with hyperproductive runaway phatnins failin the getaway grade ... cause just 'empheminate' fake up bafflements and all stage arts formacezionz.
First choice of a con fee dense for last stand there from where it's nowhere hence
Nick says blockchain doesn't scale off planet ... but he's talking about urbanism ... the micro blockchainlike quality compost that is my choice for scaling only as far as you care to throw it hasn't even been tried as accessorator to test wildest convolition factors imaginable yet, let alone as tickle attractor for the para incarnate colors of electricity that come and go without being wrapped and deathknelled if not aborted from getgo plastic to spastic pipeline all arraora and arrear.
2:30:32
just sort of wrap this this long tirade into a sensible
2:30:38
punchline is this not the perfection of critique into a state in which lying or
2:30:45
spatial displacement becomes finally non-relative or impossible
1:38:38
that kind of circuitry becomes dysfunctional and and and ceases to to
1:38:45
obtain what is unique about zero you think that kind of unlocks something
1:38:51
like why would the arrival of zero specifically perhaps be a candidate for
1:38:56
for the profound shift that occurs the most striking thing about the the
1:39:03
explosion of modernity in in all of its dimensions is it has this immensely
1:39:11
mathematical character you know and when you're saying look when it has has a
1:39:16
modernity erupted yet you're looking
1:39:22
well you know if you're looking at the Natural Sciences you're looking about the fact that it's about the mathematize
1:39:27
ation of theories of nature if you're looking at business you're looking at
1:39:34
obviously the absolutely fabulous explosion of these systems of
1:39:40
Accountancy that were completely unprecedented in like scale and complexity and sophistication before
1:39:46
obviously you know technology similarly
1:39:52
it's to do with applied mathematics and so you know on one level the arrival of
1:40:02
of zero in the culture is the arrival of a truly functional mathematics you know
1:40:14
just out of that arithmetic or semiotic and and if you go back the other way you
1:40:21
can say well you know so you know if in the mirror when we're talking about
1:40:28
maternity is a singularity where we'll actually engage in a study of social
1:40:35
control systems dampening devices
1:40:40
inhibitors a whole you know exotic flora
1:40:46
and fauna of these systems for the constraining of explosive dynamics and
1:40:54
it seems to me clearly in the Western case one what we can see retrospectively one
1:41:01
crucial inhibitor mechanism was the the radically defective nature of the
1:41:08
arithmetic or semiotic that was then dominant in in the way and so again you
1:41:15
know we're really talking about sort of negative phenomenon that zero just
1:41:20
liquidates a certain system of semiotic shielding
1:41:26
that is kind of dampening down certain potential processes
1:41:34
you know the pre-modern world view can be sort of thought about as an
1:41:42
artificially constrained scale of the
1:41:47
relative values and magnitudes of things right this is perhaps most famously
1:41:53
encoded in the notion of the great chain of being so if we we kind of just very
1:42:02
crudely simplified the pre-modern world view as this as this worldview in which everything has a place well everything
1:42:09
has some sort of positive value in other words starting at zero and going up to God or something like that yeah I never
1:42:17
so everything in the world everything that's real everything that exists you know has a has a some value greater than
1:42:24
zero in some sense and those values are known they're enforced by traditional authorities and you know they even make
1:42:31
a good deal of sense relative to human heroes yes about what is valuable and
1:42:36
and attractive and what's not and so that can actually work fairly well in a
1:42:42
limited way for some time but what's interesting about that is you can see it
1:42:49
as as a kind of suppression of of zero
1:42:54
in some sense or it's like what it doesn't quite what it's not quite a what
1:42:59
it's not quite able to intuit is that in fact the number line goes from you know
1:43:08
negative infinity to positive infinity and there is a you know smack-dab in the
1:43:14
middle of that a unique quantitative value of zero that actually has no value
1:43:22
whatsoever and I the reason why I I think that this way of thinking about it
1:43:29
might be relevant or just useful heuristically is because it seems to me
1:43:35
that part of the catastrophe of modernity as it unfolds especially for a
1:43:40
kind of human experience and you know our our ability to process what's
1:43:45
happening and to you know interact with each other in and at all healthy and sustainable
1:43:52
ways there's this very peculiar symmetry or kind of really chaotic chaotically
1:43:58
cycling nature to to intelligence where it really is kind of the basis of all
1:44:04
good and debate and the basis of of much that people call evil and I wonder if you know your idea about zero has
1:44:12
something to do with this because in some sense you can think of the pre-modern worldview enforced by traditional authorities as as keeping a
1:44:19
kind of forced lid on precisely that that chaotic cycling around the zero
1:44:25
point the liberation of mathematics is kind of the unmooring of rationalities
1:44:35
ability to anchor itself ethically it seems to me that the the pre-modern
1:44:40
traditions and especially that you know the world religions perhaps I have in mind Catholicism in particular is almost
1:44:47
you can really read it as precisely one dedicated solution to that very problem
1:44:54
and perhaps that's why zero is unique if in fact your hypothesis is right because
1:45:00
it sort of makes possible this this chaotically perverse you know symmetry
1:45:06
around around the number line or something like that where you started off it seems to me it's worth isolating
1:45:15
in itself because it is it's super convincing even before you then spin it out into the into the larger picture
1:45:22
which is which is this question just about the scale of available magnitudes
zero?? Habemus plapperwheel splishouri splash splaT!!! but do not look behind the mathematical runway stage curtains or you might put your notice on it by accistance ... nothing more cultic to see here than mathematrix
. 20m more ... missed some after the middle i guess .. but it's fairly repetitive .. set it back to 1h24 from 2h40 ..
capital is critique ... in the age of plotting cytokine storms in order to finally get a 'grip' ie control, ie guaranteed sure fire profits / privacy illusion believable enuff to be uncontested cause muted to hell never to emerge from a[ ]gain?
"inhibitory operators" ?? you can say that 'a gain' .. as he does in quick succession around halfway ...
