How to Spread Your Ideas: Write a Manifesto
Years ago, I started Wrecked for the Ordinary, an online magazine for spiritual misfits, with some friends and colleagues. Wrecked for the Ordinary The basic idea was this: when people have a paradigm-shifting experience, they feel “wrecked” or “ruined.” And that’s alienating. These experiences leave people feeling isolated and even a little weird.
Six Global Theories of Mythology: Part Six – Myths express the Unconscious Human Mind
The Human Mind The Sixth Global Theory – Myths reflect Man’s Unconscious Mind After the intensity of the progression of mythological theories in their investigation into the psychology, values, phenomenology, history and rituals of any particular civilisation or society, the Psychoanalytical Theory of myths was inevitable. Freud’s ‘Interpretation of Dreams’ investigated the link between the language of dreams and mythological symbols based on the tribal belief that dreams and myths arise from the same reality. Freud (1856 – 1939) believed in a transhistorical and biological conception of mankind and furthermore that myth expressed repressed desires.

Minding the Planet: From Semantic Web to Global Mind
Draft 1.1 for Review (integrates some fixes from readers) Nova Spivack (www.mindingtheplanet.net) This article presents some thoughts about the future of intelligence on Earth. In particular, I discuss the similarities between the Internet and the brain, and how I believe the emerging Semantic Web will make this similarity even greater. The Semantic Web enables the formal communication of a higher level of language -- metalanguage.
How to Write a Personal Manifesto
Editor’s note: This is a guest post from Zach Sumner. “I only read nautical novels and my own personal manifestos.” – Ron Swanson If I were to say the word “manifesto,” you might think of either Communists or serial killers. This is understandable; the word has taken a beating over the years.
Superintelligence
A superintelligence, hyperintelligence, or superhuman intelligence is a hypothetical agent that possesses intelligence far surpassing that of the brightest and most gifted human minds. ‘’Superintelligence’’ may also refer to the form or degree of intelligence possessed by such an agent. Technological forecasters and researchers disagree about when human intelligence is likely to be surpassed. Some argue that advances in artificial intelligence (AI) will probably result in general reasoning systems that lack human cognitive limitations.

‘The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.’ -Socrates There is a sleeping giant in the Americas and a great awakening is at hand.
Birth of the global mind
The best symbiosis of man and computer is where a program learns from humans but notices things they would not Global consciousness. We’ve heard that before. In the 1960s we were all going to be mystically connected; or it would come as a super-intelligent machine – Terminator’s Skynet – that is inimical to humanity. And yet, what if the reality is more mundane? Computer scientist Danny Hillis once remarked, “Global consciousness is that thing responsible for deciding that pots containing decaffeinated coffee should be orange.”
Critical Thinking Manifesto
When teaching a graduate course on Critical Thinking for the first time, I added a requirement for an end-of-semester "manifesto." The stated goal was for students "to finish the semester with a synthesis of elements from the course selected and organized so as to inspire and inform [their] efforts in extending critical thinking beyond the course." Early in the semester a number of students expressed anxiety about this requirement—"what exactly do you want"—and more generally asked for clear definitions of and procedures for critical thinking—"I was never taught this at college; I'm not a critical thinking kind of person." Because the manifesto was a new assignment and we had no examples from previous courses, my co-instructor and I simply reassured them that that they would have something to say by the end of the semester. This advice paid off. © Peter Taylor
