#TBT: A Sense of the Whole
(w/ Jeremy Johnson)
On Thursdays, I’ll be posting something from the archive.
Here’s a chat I had with
in 2021. We discuss integral thought, Gebser, structures of consciousness, mapping the whole, and metamodern spirituality.Paid subscriptions go to fund my research into the evolution of meaning.

3. Meaning and Complexification

If energy, information, and structural order are indeed all related, then we should expect to see a clear correlation between these measures in a complexifying universe. As entities move further from equilibrium, they should require more energy to sustain their informational richness and organizational depth. That is, we should expect to find greater energy flows per increasing measure of structural complexity.
