Forthcoming book, Analytic Possibilism

ANALYTIC POSSIBILISM

By Nathan Coppedge

BOOK DESCRIPTION

An optimistic philosophy granting powers to the critical faculty...Thoughts can have the properties of nature as a way of tasting nature...Metaphysical possibility exists in at least two senses...The view held roughly by Elias Canetti, Novalis, Lichtenberg, Alexius Meinong, Quentin Meillassoux, and Nathan Coppedge.

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.

Coherent Logic by Nathan Coppedge

BOOK DESCRIPTION

This short treatise is a guide to insights on two- and three-valued logic. More importantly, it introduces the associated coherent systeme of Nathan Coppedge, inventor of the coherent categorical deduction, and philosophical paroxysm or double-paradox. The book is designed to yield insights into objective knowledge, non-causal inference, and coherent systems.


It is available now at Amazon HERE (e-book will be linked with the text page soon enough).

Definition of Axiometry

1. In Plato, a dialectical dualism or contingency of positions.
2. In categorics or objective coherentism, the use of a Cartesian diagram for the inclusion of qualia as absolutes.

Coherent Objectivism

I have posted at several blogs with the idea of starting a typological philosophy, "objective coherentism":

In traditional coherentism, statement p is true if it meets conditions S, where S may be contingent.

In Objective Coherentism,

Coherentists are those who hold that for n equivalent statements, organization S is valid when n is ennumerated.

So before a statement is determined to be invalid or subjective, it may be seen that it is either:

A. A difficult claim in a particular organization

B. A difficult claim based on the perfection of evidence

Stated in these terms, coherentism can be a form of objective philosophy.
