Logic and What fits

March 31, 2025
A colleague passed on an article on “fixation”. “Fixations form the basis of stable cognition and behaviour through projection, where the organism imposes cognitive content on itself and the world to form stable percepts. This leads to the idea that the brain functions as a fixation-projection machine.” I do not disagree, generally speaking.     […]

This leads to the idea that the brain functions as a fixation-projection machine.” I do not disagree, generally speaking.

 

 

 

However, the generalized theory of fixations is only interesting in relation to my theory and the general theory of bubble thinking, closed off to reasonable skepticism. However, what really interests me is “the fit”, or I suppose it would be called the generalized theory of fitations. It is not anything we do not know, which is the logical connections between propositions to reach a conclusion. The issue, though, is translating a belief statement to a proposition. What is lost in that process is not immediately known, in that truth values are not easy to discern in schema claims.

 

 

 

There is a network logic which complicates the ability to come up with simple propositions. Propositional logic is the easy pathway to fitation, but often not sufficient. Understanding the network logic is the challenge. I am moving to a solution of collapsing and reforming categories, as the big picture spiral historiography. Networks and their elements are grouped by categories. There are historical periods when categories become unsustainable, and the old categories have to go through a reformation.
