Ubiquitous Patterns: As Above, So Below | Video
Posted by Alex Vikoulov in categories: cosmology, neuroscience, particle physics
From the synapses that connect billions of neurons in the brain to the filaments of dark matter that link galactic superclusters, there’s a fractal reiteration across the magnitude of scales akin to the Mandelbrot fractal set. The mathematics behind the Mandelbrot set, which is derived from a very simple underlying formula, makes me think that its intricate fractal chaos and stunningly beautiful design can’t help but leave a feeling that there’s something larger than life going on here, that you are staring right at some ineffable cosmic mystery. https://www.ecstadelic.net/top-stories/ubiquity-of-patterns-in-nature #patterns #fractals #fractality #SyntellectHypothesis #FiveParadigms #MindsEvolution #FractalPatterns #EmergentPatterns #AsAboveSoBelow #UbiquitousPatterns #FractalGeometry #SacredGeometry #MandelbrotSet #MTheory #MultiFractality
In Nature, we find patterns, designs and structures from the most minuscule particles, to expressions of life discernible by human eyes, to the greater cosmos. These inevitably follow geometrical archetypes, platonic solids, some call it sacred geometry, which reveal to us the essence of each form and its vibrational resonances. They are also symbolic of the underlying holistic principle of inseparability of the part and the whole.
It is this principle of oneness underlying all geometry that permeates the architecture of all form in its myriad diversity. This principle of interconnectedness, inseparability and unity provides us with a continuous reminder of our relationship to the whole, a blueprint for the mind to contemplate the sacred foundation of all things created.

Amazon conference showcases robots and social uses of artificial intelligence
Posted by Derick Lee in categories: business, drones, employment, health, robotics/AI, space travel
Thousands of tech fans descended on the Mojave desert for the conference, a public offshoot of Amazon Chairman Jeff Bezos’ previous invitation-only MARS conferences (the acronym stands for “Machine Learning, Robotics, Automation and Space”).
It resembled a tech summer camp, replete with offerings of cutting-edge technology demos, talks and social events.

This sounds like the works of an MKULTRA CIA Perp. (First generation.)
Was someone going around gassing people in their homes?

Evolutionary discovery to rewrite textbooks
Posted by Xavier Rosseel in category: futurism
Scientists at The University of Queensland have upended biologists’ century-old understanding of the evolutionary history of animals.
Using new technology to investigate how multi-celled animals developed, their findings revealed a surprising truth.
Professor Bernie Degnan said the results contradicted years of tradition.

Artificial Wombs: What’s Really Needed
Posted by Richard Christophr Saragoza in category: biotech/medical
This technology is being pushed as “New”. This was already perfected in 1965 if not before.
A recent article in Nature Communications announces the development of a kind of artificial womb (or extracorporeal gestational system). So far it has been used to further the development of premature lambs. Technology website Gizmodo breaks down the technical journal article in more understandable terms.
The research team, led by Alan Flake from the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has shown that it’s possible to support extremely premature lambs in an external artificial womb, and to recreate the conditions required for normal gestational development. The lambs were able to grow inside a fluid-filled device, which sustained them for a record-breaking four weeks. Subsequent tests on the lambs indicated normal development of their brain, lungs, and organs. It may take another decade before this technology can be used on premature human infants, but it’s an important step in that direction.
