Roots of Dimensionism / Dimensionalism in Picabia

Quotes by Nathan Coppedge:

"Translating age might yield youth.
Youth is age’s experience, except with the avant-garde.
Psychiatrists would say God is the avant-garde.
We shouldn’t age except by holiness.
Holiness has the promise of the sacred life."
 ---Spiritual Writings (#1)

"For it (truth) is (inherently) coherent. What is incoherent is coherently incoherent. I find this to be a rule of nature." ---2014

"Coherence breeds incoherence."

I have recently noted that Picabia wrote similarly in 1949: "Knowledge is an old error that thinks of its youth. Illogicity invented logic...Art is the worship of error. To fear the senses is to become a philosopher." (Francis Picabia, 4 March 1949, quoted in I AM A BEAUTIFUL MONSTER: Poetry, Prose, and Provocation by Francis Picabia, p. 379).

A translation of parts of Picabia's work is subsequently being added to the Golden Notebook (the new addition has not yet been published, as of 2016/01/13).

More later, perhaps.

The Dimensional Equation --- Simple and Complex Solution

Via the Dimensionism Group on Facebook (a group I run myself):

"If it's exponential, then my guess is that it relates to the square root"---Brian Coppedge [my younger brother by 2 years and 2 days]

Referring to the number of categorical deductions for a given category set, this proved to be true, at least for two dimensions of modular 4.

The simplest equation is to take the square root of the number of categories. Another equation is 2 * ( 2 ^ (M root of C) - 1), where C is the number of categories, and M is the modular value, such as 4 for quadra.

This equation simply gives the number of categorical deductions, not how to tabulate them.

In my formulation, the tabulations are equal to all legal cyclical orders (made complex by modularity), in which the opposite positions are occupied by opposite categories. There are also simpler ways to reach the combinations. The result is essentially binary for every set level, but the exact order counts, and some combinations are superfluous, which is not always obvious. Set-equivalence must be defined in a formalized way.

BABBLE EXPERIMENT #1

233T - 0

Imagine that I'm walking in Plato's Cave.

I'm supposed to deny the abstract against God...

Are they saying all I am is selfishness?

Are they saying God has no Soul?

I try to talk to myself, and what I hear

Are people trying to talk to me!

They tell me, this is how you have an experience

Inside Plato's Cave!

This is the ultimate reality that doesn't solve one problem!

And when I speak back,

They always tell me that I'm being surprisingly clear!

Too clear for my intelligence, in fact!

I may have solved one problem, but because

I'm in Plato's cave, there's always approximately

Infinite problems left.

But really, if I could just talk to myself,

That would replace the God concept

And there would be no need for babbling

About caves and problems.

They tell me one-to-one----

I need to be a parasite!

I need to stab you in the back!

To get out of the cave!

If I repeat this back to them,

They say Get Out!

Now they say the worst thing in the world

Is to leave the Cave of Paradise----

something God already thought of----

Because he left the Cave himself!

But that's not good history----

So it must not be God's real story!

So far as I know, I'm God if I talk to myself!

That's not contradictory!

That's not bigamy!

That's not the Devil's Dictionary!

It's as plain as daylight inside the cave!

The cave of my own mind!

The relevance of my own problems!

When was I ever unwise?

About the time someone used the word 'survival'-----

To refer to the idea that I was already dead!

Because they were confused in the head-----

Perhaps because they had left the cave themselves!

An obsesion with a dead God murdered-----

By losing innocence!

The worst things happen to those that do exactly what happened!

That's what everyone says!

And it's not such a bad idea!

To the clearest mind there's nothing wrong with ignorance!

It's the most creative, original condition of history!

Meaningful things happen when crazy people discover reality!

Open a book and you find some mention of their prodigy!

The figure dwarfed by architecture!

The soggy newspaper!

The spilled bottle of ink!

The discarded lunchbox!

These people moved to a better reality!

And there is no evidence that they followed any other path than you and me!

But try a perspective that fits!

The smell of cantaloupe!

The perfect memory of the most euphoric candy!

Or some other wonderful myth that was realized for some time----as though immortal!

In the drench of this stuff, anyone could be a mad demented clown!

There's nothing wrong with it!

I'ts just a noticeable coincidence that none of these people are mad demented clowns!

It's too significant! It's a feverish dish.

It's half-remembering falling in a ditch.

It's the last pitch.

People aren't such lunatics as to ignore the paths that do not come.

They just realize the dream.

And the dream is dumb.

Change the dream!

Witness the clowns take a walk in the park!

Of course, the real people will be dropping their lunch pails and spilling ink.

But nothing is left of the true reality!

People stink!

People are educated fools!

Out of the murk of sanity comes peopled abundance!

Shops merge! Lyrics profilactate!

Gone are the days when miracles were small!

Small days will come and go when people were basically gods....

THE MATRIX GUIDE TO DIMENSIONALISM

The Mote is just madness...

It's what you need to move beyond the basics...

What we are used to...

Is just 4 categories...

'The Quadrae'...

Or, you can call it, Omni-Science!

Notice, the basics has boundaries...

It is  a step beyond mathematics...

The exceptions pile up exponentially by the power of two...

1, 4, 16, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384...

Every level has its own logical method...

It's own range of minimal rhetorical authority....

Each level requires exceeding perfection...

Each level has its own type of mastery...

For our purposes, computers may be required beyond the level of '16'...

That is about the limit of what the average mind can grasp...

Each of these levels is a variation on the Quadrae...

Intemediate levels also exist...

But they are tougher to grasp...

Unique typologies exist for every dimension....

Even fractional dimensions, with greater precision....

Sometimes it is safe to say that one dimension is just a variation on the previous...

In an evolving system, each category must be perfect and complete to lead to the following schema...

For our purposes, perfection is suspended until groups are completed...

But, I will show you a little work that I have done...

The third dimension is the beginning of meaningful experience....

The fourth dimension is the beginning of time-travel....

The fifth dimensions is the beginning of immortality....

21 Dimensions is what you need to eclipse everything that you KNOW!

At that level, there is something called 'Quadruple Complexity'....

No need to know about that now...

Just focus on the tools you hold now...

And you will have the will  to achieve ultimate reality!....

Advances in Dimensional Metaphysics Qua Mathematics

Major categories can be separated by what variable they take.

The result is a hierarchy.


Time takes extension or the state of dimension as a variable, and takes immortality as an irrational.

Quantity takes quality as a variable, and takes organization as an irrational.

Complexity takes quantity and quality as variables, and takes perfection as an irrational.

Pleasure, on the other hand, takes ‘dimensional’ (the quality of dimension) as a variable, and takes ‘pain’ as an irrational.

IDEAS GLEANED FROM N-DIMENSIONAL POLYVERSES

The book unites many separate concepts of dimensional worlds...

BOOK DESCRIPTION

This is a very cool project culminating from years of genius research on the nature of hyper-dimensions. The goal of the project came about through a gradual accretion of highly perfected category structures, each representing, at least metaphorically, one whole dimensional slot in reality, much like our current three-and-a-halfth dimension. The goal of the book was to assemble a categorical typology for each dimension, up to the largest n-th dimension I could find. As you might predict, I eventually left gaps within the system, but given the rigor of my research, I was able (not lazily), to adopt one perfect typology for each one of the first SIXTEEN dimensions, six full dimensions beyond what some believe is even mathematically conceivable! But since my system is somewhat avant-garde and un-traditional (yet logically coherent), I find no problem with introducing additional complex dimensionality. In fact, I have included a sampling of even higher dimensions than sixteen, as offered by my longer papers (...64th, 78th, 100th). Putting this material together without my background in dimensionalism would have been an exhausting task. And I hope the project strikes my readers as one which as I believe is worthy of the highest ambitions. I am also previously the author of other books on related topics, including books on philosophical coherence such as The Dimensional Philosopher‘s Toolkit, Coherent Systems Theory, and Coherent Logic. In many ways this text, by drawing on so many of the separate complete and incomplete projects, surpasses them all!---Nathan Coppedge August 2nd 2015, New Haven CT.

HOW TO BUILD A 21-DIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE

A treat originally written in The Dimensional Phenomenologist's Toolkit as "(The) Tracery View". (not yet published in book form as of June 2015):

Here are the twenty-one dimensions or levels of critique, which apply to aspects of all dimensions:

[1] Infinite extension of no content.
[2] Content that consists of extension.
[3] Extension of something more complex.
[4] Complex extension.
[5] Complex extension of something complex.
[6] Complexes of complexity by some more complex process than complex extension.
[7] Double-complexity.
[8] Ambiguous extension of content.
[9] Extension of double-complexity.
[10] Complex extension of double-complexity.
[11] Complex, ambiguous extension.
[12] Double-complex extension of double-complexity.
[13] Double-complex complexes doubly-complexly extended.
[14] Triple complexity
[15] Arbitrary extension of content.
[16] Extension of triple-complexity.
[17] Complex or doubly-complex extension of triple-complexity.
[18] More-than-complex, arbitrary extension.
[19] Triply-complex extension of triple-complexity.
[20] Triply-complex complexes triply-complexly extended.
[21] Quadruple complexity.


Qualified writing: <[May need new concepts eventually]>

2023–12–23: Note this last statement summarizes what I think of most 21-dimensional theories. However, it is still noted that if a negative dimension is implicated with a 20-Ideas Model or something similarly complex, there may be cases where 21-dimensions comes into play with an actual ToE.

Flux Aeterna

Via Gerald O'Connell: example of excellent manifesto writing...However I am perplexed that most of these types of movements have a slightly negative vibe (the concept of 'flux', nihilism, or opposition, for instance). Perhaps it simply amounts to individual differences which are observable from the outside, or perhaps my own work has secrets which are not contained by aesthetic or the primary intellectual theories... This, however, is a writing from Gerald O'Connell, which could inspire dimensionism:

FLUX AETERNA

"...There are certain mathematical patterns that are of great fundamental simplicity - basic expressions of quantity and extension. They can seem to act together as a kind of motor for being, always in flux, shifting, ticking away beneath the veil of the physical. They are independent of categories like mass or time. Any graphical representation of them must be totally ambiguous as to scale, appearing at once as both cosmic and microscopic. In such maps there can be no
objects or things, only the shadows of action or the trajectories of potential."

See more of his project, which includes some metaphysical style artwork, at: http://www.gacoc.demon.co.uk/flux.htm

I am also re-posting this at the Dimensionist group, since it is very similar thinking, perhaps even an unconscious inspiration for elements of my philosophical work.

Dimensional World Module 1

1. Complexity is texture.

2. Texture is a kind of information in the dimensional world. See Systemo.

3. Perfection is substance.

4. Entities can levitate through isometry.

5. Subjectivity is the coincidence of perspective, granted appropriateness.

6. Entities exchange abstract properties through hyperbolics.

7. The correspondence of internalized descriptions determines aesthetic meaning.

8. Perfection is a rule of complexity, and vice versa.

9. Quests include whether perfection is subjective, and whether complexity is individual (creating leisure and purpose).

10. Meaning and enjoyment are natural---both urban and cultivated.

11. If there is a shortcoming, it is the shortcoming of virtual worlds: a way in which the original, inherent needs of occupants were ignored or overlooked.

12. Consequently, pleasure should be guaranteed, unless pleasure can be explained and justified by visual content.

13. Economics is not competitive, but meaningful and explosive like the big bang.

14. Everything is meaningful, unless it results in questions to the interface.

15. Knowledge in this world is exponential, and its only degeneration is the finitude of the coinci-stantial.

16. In essence, a meaningful world, with real values (objects, hence aesthetic rules of physics).

17. Ethics is far more material, and meaning far more evidential, in this world.

Modal Dimensionism

BOOK DESCRIPTION

A whirlwind tour through some of the advanced concepts of the categorical philosophy, this text introduces the concept of ‘lotus diagrams’ and gives six examples of the intensive use of quadratic diagrams to frame coherent concepts of objects, buildings, and life forms recursively. This is one of Nathan’s earlier works on dimensionism, and covers material not included in either The Dimensional Philosopher’s Toolkit or the Ninesquare Notebook. The emphasis is on modules as a basis for categoric thought, and it uses a unique pictographic method to demonstrate an organized process.
