Solve et Coagule is very interesting.
In some ways it feels to me like a free form flow
around some very specific feelings and ideas. In some
places it reads almost like poetry.
What is a literal translation of Solve et Coagule
into English? Is this the main idea being submitted
or is it more to do with the philosophies which are
(hee hee) doing the "solving and coaguling" [sic]
What exactly do you mean by transhuminist
body engineering?
Who is VM Smith? All these questions are out of
curiosity and interest.
The relation to the core wave is in the idea of
things disovling and forming back and forth into
each other?
And the specific things at hand here are going
beyond our physical bodies with physical
engineering vs. utopian immortality in
virtual reality? These things I'm the most curious
about?
Would you like me to move the entire text of your
post as is into an inner game move? It seems to me
that the
bulk of the text fits under our heading for
"deeper" as it seems to me to contain
"technical, academic, specialized or complicated
language."
What do you think? I'm a bit confused but totally
intriqued.
Oh and Steve thanks again for all your feedback
and thoughts about the site. There is a lot of
useful material to play with there.
Let me know what you think.
Best Robert GM
