These observations on Pattern recognition is of great interest. The difference between recursion and reiteration is the difference between rote repetition and a theme with variations .What is invariant? Coherence in a group dynamic, sharing attention together, allows a group to detect subtle patterning that the left brained rush for conclusions and products tends to inhibit. You mentioned, Doug, in our last Alternate Realities episode, that you had a dialogue with a white breasted sparrow. Your mimicry got a direct response. Is there some kind of magic happening in this sort of pattern recognizing between species? As I listened again to that video I noticed that we did not return to that report of your experience with the sparrow. Maybe a dream will emerge, an ‘as if’ rehearsal, that can reveal a hidden patterning, between language and bird song ? Now,that would be really wierd. Gaia dreaming…
Was it a vision, or a waking dream?
Fled is that music:—Do I wake or sleep?
