[ excerpt from Morning Coffee with Kirby in Control Room ]

What I dream about are specific Coffee Shops that operate openly as places you can try various potions, poisons, concoctions, other toxins.  Yes, they're modeled on opium dens to some extent, but they're not clones of one another either.

Those operating these establishments are well trained (in theory at least) and psychologically attuned to the needs and wants of their customers, but they're also up on medical science.  

These coffee shops may be like a health club in being membership based, and like bars in exercising their rights to eighty-six specific people, based on their track record.  Like a video rental shop (remember those?), they may have a record of customer orders (as do the streaming services).  They may be highly regulated.

If you're the kind of cowboy who jacks up on some substance, then starts brawls on a regular basis, don't be too amazed if your membership fob (or key) stops opening doors at specific establishments.  Operators have the right to ban access, just as they have the right to ban firearms on private premises (like hotels), perhaps checked into a safe or locker (retrieve when you check out).

Synergetics Slide Show (School of Tomorrow)

My YouTube channel contains quite a few examples of me presenting this slide deck. 

This latest version dives into more technical detail on many of the slides. 

My treatment this time may have been influenced by a changing sense of my audience. Since connecting with the Math 4 Wisdom (M4W) community, headed up by Andrius Kulikauskas, I've senses my audience having higher bandwidth -- as in "intake capacity" -- regarding the mathematics of what we're doing. 

I was also inspired by some recent work on the S-module, in turn inspired by David Koski and Casey House.

I'm continuing to see Synergetics as more a philosophical work in mathematical foundations, but with a built-in critique of "foundations" as a metaphor, given our conceptual space is more gravity-neutral than we experience as tiny guys on Planet Earth. 

We're more apt to see our system as a planet in and of itself i.e. infrastructure of a spherical nature cohered by gravity, and capable of functioning as a transceiver i.e. as both a tuned in recipient and a caster-emitter of intelligence and information.
