Meaning Pt. 2

We have looked at the stars for thousands of year. Followed the habits of insects and birds and land animals. Examined how best to keep warm, to get from A to B, to feed ourselves, to avoid pain, to stay alive. Experimented with human relationships. Recorded our patterns and environments and experiences and learnings and thinkings.

We make thousands of decisions every day. Most are subconscious.

Think about the subconscious and conscious decisions you’ve made over the past 24 hours. Think about the most important decisions you’ve made in your life.

If we were to create a living organizational entity, a cooperative, that was designed to Nurture, it would, at its essence, offer a scaffolding that addressed the objectives of everyone.

We would acknowledge comfort – the universal need for security, survival and freedom from pain, suffering, hunger, disease and threat.

Madison Avenue’s Upper East Side coutures contain some of the most intricate designs we have ever seen. These clothing patterns explore the breadth and depth of our capacity to create shape and form, color and texture. Among these dresses and skirts and scarfs are semiotic inspirations for the use of pattern to carry and convey meaning.

After years of research, we still believe that unique fixed models are the best way to organize the variables of systems.

We still believe that filling the cells of these models with rich semiotic patterns is the way to convey states and exchanges.

We still believe that a multitude of perspectives can only be portrayed by a multitude of integrated models viewed together.

We still believe that we only need a few specific defined colors, shapes and forms to deliver meaning.

And we still believe that a browser based real time visualization engine is the solution to the reinvention of knowledge.

Above all, representations are driven by their objectives and the meaning to be conveyed.

We believe in the extraordinary concept stuck with an ordinary name - meaning.

Meaning is what stands out across all of our senses.
Meaning is the signal that stands out from the noise.

Meaning is the pattern that is deviant,
the pattern that is sought,
the pattern that can be recognized,
the laws of pattern that enable us to understand and anticipate,
the pattern that we are programmed to focus on,
the sudden motion, the loud noise, that our genetics require us to process,
the threat we evade
the exhilaration we explore
the filter for every stimuli
the guide to decision and choice
the thing we call knowledge

Meaning is what we remember in long term memory- in short term memory.
Meaning is the connections we make to whatever crosses our path.
Meaning is the importance we place on whatever crosses our conscious and subconscious processing.
Meaning is the message.
Meaning is the understanding.

Saturation, hue, contrast, tone, tint, shade- these are just a handful of the words we use to describe one of the most incredible perceptions we possess. We are wired to process color.

It has a power over people that we don’t often acknowledge. Nothing is quite as affecting as the calming blue of the shallows of the Pacific, the comfortable dull red of Oklahoman rose rock and the arresting orange of a ripe pumpkin.

Teaching does not directly translate into Learning
Teaching does not necessarily provide Necessity
Learning is not a passive Act

We are inspired by the art of life, the art of matter:energy, the art of creation.
We see how to represent.
We see essence.
We see that everything can be reduced to essential meanings. Or no meaning.
Through art. Through multimedia. Through cells and patterns. Through forms and exchanges.
Through color and light. Through texture and shape. Through space and time.
