@OakieJs There is a connection between this Duke U. stuff and the study by Kurakin fo sho.💯 I can see it...just not able to express it fully. YET. https://t.co/3JWtAtCATJ

3)Conclusion Consciousness is likely a self-organizational phenomenon & thus a natural consequence of evolution & self-organisation of nonliving matter, implying existence of multiple levels of consciousness & deep connections btwn everything i
"moving electrons represent a keystone physical force (flux) that powers, animates, informs, and binds all living structures-processes into a planetary-wide, multiscale system of electron flow/circulation"
Equally that there is a sharp line between life and non-life, rather than the more likely event that life being emergent from non-life. Chemistry became biology. https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Life as a once-only exceptional event and that Earth is the only place this miracle occurred. Clearly piffle derived from tiered old religious thinking. https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
So ends this second weekend on this truly stunning article. It is so refreshing to hear established academics break with the tiered old saw that life is a once-only exceptional event and that Earth is the only place this miracle occurred. https://t.co/qPq0
The SOFT-NET interpretation: “living matter and consciousness, both being natural consequences of the evolution and self-organization of nonliving matter, may turn out to be highly abundant in the Universe at large.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“This may mean that the living Earth grows and develops in an invisible competition with a great variety of alien life forms, which grow and develop throughout the Universe, feeding on the (same) flow of energy/matter that makes up the Universe.” https://t
Life as a consequence of matter. “In other words, life is likely to be a rule rather than an exception in the Universe at large.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Life as a continuum. “If we assume that the main difference between living matter and nonliving matter is that of organization, then life is a natural consequence of the evolution of nonliving matter.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“The Earth's biomass has been continuously increasing over macroevolutionary time at an accelerating pace, it appears that living matter as a whole grows by extracting and assimilating electrons and protons from nonliving matter at an accelerating rate.” h
Precondition. “Large-scale, organized electron flow becomes much more feasible in far-from-equilibrium conditions, as compared to the equilibrium state.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“What appears to be always and everywhere present is a continuous and rapid flow of electrons and protons passing through each and every living organism.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“Different organisms (or the same organisms under different circumstances) may use different chemical species as sources of and sinks for electrons and protons.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Genome redefined. “Altogether, it appears that genomic DNA may in fact function as a giant sponge that absorbs oxidizing equivalents and redistributes them within the DNA medium in a spatiotemporally organized and sequence-dependent manner.” https://t.co/q
Fractal superstructure. “As the third postulate, let us assume that the energy/matter flowing through and comprising the Universe spontaneously self-organizes into self-similar (fractal) structures-processes on all scales of the organizational hierarchy.”
New theory. “The SOFT implies the existence of universal principles governing self-organizational dynamics in a scale-invariant manner.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
SOFT New theory. Certain organizational structures/processes are scale-invariant and occur repetitively on all scales “at the molecular, cellular, organismal, populational, and higher-order levels of biological organization.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
New theory. “According to the self-organizing fractal theory (SOFT) of living matter, certain organizational structures and processes are scale-invariant and occur over and over again on all scales of the biological organizational hierarchy,” https://t.co/
3rd postulate. Living matter “evolves as a self-similar structure (fractal) due to the pressures of economic competition and evolutionary selection.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
3rd postulate.”Living matter as a whole represents a multiscale structure-process of energy/matter flow/circulation, which obeys the empirical laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics.” https://t.co/qPq0M9QUdm

@IntuitMachine Emergent properties of plasmas? https://t.co/5aPdrFQGuk
“All of the scale-specific manifestations/forms of flowing energy/matter are thus interconnected and co-evolve as a nested set of self-organizing and interdependent structures-processes.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“These forms are manifested at the corresponding levels of the organizational hierarchy as elementary particles, atoms, molecules, cells, organisms, ecosystems (including human organizations and economies), planetary and stellar systems, galaxies…” https:/
“Let us assume…that the energy/matter comprising and flowing through the Universe spontaneously self-organizes on multiple spatiotemporal scales into metastable, interconverting flow/circulation patterns (organizational forms).” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Emergent gradients. “As the first postulate, let us assume that, at the fundamental level, the energy/matter comprising the Universe is far from equilibrium, that it exists as an evolving flow.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“Increasing the rate of energy/matter flow normally leads to a stepwise increase in relative complexity and order within an evolving nonequilibrium system.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“A relatively higher degree of complexity and order requires and, at the same time, supports a relatively higher rate of energy/matter flow.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“Third, the degree of complexity and order within a self-organizing nonequilibrium system and the rate of energy/matter passing through the system correlate in a mutually defining manner.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Interconnected cosmos. “This means that, within a nonequilibrium system of energy/matter flow/circulation, everything is connected to everything else through shared microcomponents flowing through and mediating the emergence, evolution…” https://t.co/qPq0M
“Members come and go, but the organization persists.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Persistent structure. “That is, what is actually preserved and evolves over relevant timescales is an organization of relationships between interacting components (an organizational form) but not physical components comprising a given macrostructure.” http
“The macrostructures-processes emerging in far-from-equilibrium conditions are of a steady-state nature.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“When a critical threshold value of flow rate is exceeded, the system spontaneously self-organizes into interdependent and interconnected macrostructures-processes, in a phase transition-like manner.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“Second, the emergence of macroscopic order is a highly nonlinear, cooperative process.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“The emergence of interdependent fluxes and gradients within the system (leads to) concomitant dynamic compartmentalization of the components of the system in space and time.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“First, a sufficiently intense flow of energy/matter through an open physicochemical system of interacting components naturally and spontaneously leads to the emergence of interdependent fluxes and gradients within the system.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Consequences. “Several empirical generalizations discovered in studies of far-from-equilibrium systems are especially relevant for the discussion that follows.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW

“As above, so below” aka scale invariant symmetry. This paper on SOFT-NET is a massive complex systems cosmology red pill - covers non equilibrium dynamics, abiogenesis, abiotic oil, biology, consciousness and cosmology. Highly recommend reading the pape
This fresh perspective recasts old dogmas and problems into a new solution. https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
So ends this first of two weekends on a reframing of biology as explained in a fractal non-linear far-from-equilibrium universe and its implicit consequences for the origins of life. https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
The resulting complex system of conjugated fluxes and coupled gradients manifests as a spatiotemporal macroscopic order spontaneously emerging in an initially featureless, disordered system, provided the system is driven far enough away from equilibrium.”
The energy/matter “flowing through and comprising the Universe evolves from simplicity and disorder to complexity and order via self-organization, in accordance with the empirical laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“The conflict disappears, however, if we postulate that the energy/matter making up the Universe is far from equilibrium, that it exists as an evolving flow.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“The apparent conflict between the second law of thermodynamics and biological evolution exists only if one assumes that the energy/matter comprising the Universe is near equilibrium.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Reframing reality. “This work outlines an alternative interpretation/image of reality that brings scientific theory, experimental reality, and our deep-seated beliefs, intuition, and common sense into harmony.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Absurd purpose? “A gloomy future indeed, so that one may ask oneself why to bother, to excel, and to create, and why not simply enjoy by destroying, since this is the natural and inevitable order of things anyway?” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Consequences. “A state of maximum entropy, where all changes will cease, and disorder and simplicity will prevail forever.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Consequences. “Since "somewhere else" can potentially include the whole Universe, the Universe as a whole is believed to undergo natural disorganization on the way to its final destination, i.e., to a state of maximum entropy.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Consequences. “Albeit, how exactly the apparent decrease of entropy on the planet Earth is compensated by an increase in entropy somewhere else is less clear.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
The dogma. “Local decreases in entropy (i.e., ordering) are possible as long as there are compensating increases in entropy (i.e., disordering) somewhere else, so that net entropy always increases.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
The dogma. “The apparent conflict between theory and empirical reality is normally dismissed by pointing out that the second law does not really contradict biological evolution because local decreases in entropy (i.e., ordering) are possible.” https://t.co

“The second law of thermodynamics, which states that energy/matter can spontaneously evolve only from states of lower entropy (order) to states of higher entropy (disorder), i.e., in the opposite direction.” https://t.co/qPq0M9QUdm
“Yet this empirical trend stands in stark contrast with one of the fundamental laws of physics, the second law of thermodynamics.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“Moreover, when considered over macroevolutionary timescales, the expansion and ordering of living matter appears to proceed at an accelerating pace.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
The entropy question. “In other words, living matter as a whole appears to evolve spontaneously from states of relative simplicity and disorder (i.e., high entropy states) to states of relative complexity and order (i.e., low entropy states).” https://t.co
Trending slope. “Periodic but transient setbacks in the form of mass extinctions notwithstanding, living matter on our planet has been continuously expanding in terms of its size, diversity, complexity, order, and influence on nonliving matter.” https://t.
Complexification. “It is a self-evident fact that life, as we know it, has a natural tendency to expand in space and time and to evolve from simplicity to complexity.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
The presented findings suggest “that living matter is an organizational state/phase of nonliving matter and a natural consequence of the evolution and self-organization of nonliving matter.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“The presented findings lead to a radically new perspective on the nature and origin of life,” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
As a form of symmetry, “scale-invariance naturally lends itself to a new discovery method that allows for the deduction of missing information by comparing scale-invariant organizational patterns across different levels of the organizational hierarchy.” ht
At all scales. “This means that certain organizational structures and processes are scale-invariant and are reproduced at all levels of the organizational hierarchy.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Fractal core. “It is postulated that the energy/matter flowing through and comprising the Universe evolves as a multiscale, self-similar structure-process, i.e., as a self-organizing fractal.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Non-equilibrium cosmos that “exists as a flow, and that it develops via self-organization in accordance with the empirical laws of nonequilibrium thermodynamics.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Non-equilibrium cosmos. “The method is based on an alternative conceptualization of physical reality postulating that the energy/matter comprising the Universe is far from equilibrium.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
“A new form of global symmetry, namely, scale-invariance of self-organizational dynamics of energy/matter at all levels of organizational hierarchy, from elementary particles through cells and organisms to the Universe as a whole.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
Widely applicable. “A universal discovery method potentially applicable to all disciplines studying organizational phenomena has been developed.” https://t.co/qPq0Ma8vBW
