Perspectives

An experimental attempt to organize my perspectives in a way that makes it easier to find inconsistencies and connections. A work in progress.

Theme

Reframes binary properties as high-dimensional, context-dependent processes to sidestep traditional dichotomies. Each (identity, free will, meaning, objectivity) remains real at its own level without requiring a view-from-nowhere foundation. Feedback loops and predictive patterns do the work that desert, frame-independence, and metaphysical foundations are usually called on to do. Political and ethical conclusions follow from the feedback-loop framework rather than from foundational commitments.

Foundation

Epistemology, informational monism, and scope-disciplined level-relativism.
