Understanding The Concept System
THE SYSTEM OF CONCEPTS
First, there was the Concept. From the Concept, everything emerged.
THE ENCODING AND DECODING OF REALITY
Concepts are exchanged between subjects in an objective reality. Subjects use objects to package concepts and deliver them to other subjects.
THE WORLD IS A REPRESENTATION OF IDEAS
To the subject, everything is a concept. Including this, and this, and this. The concept is a fundamental unit of experience.
THE TARGET OF RECEPTION
As a subjective system, you always develop the concept, but the concept varies depending upon your aim. You may not control what comes in, but you do control its direction.
TRANSFERRING MEDIUMS DEVELOPS THE CONCEPT
The next time you’re feeling creatively drained, see if there’s anything to move. The simple act of transferring concepts between mediums is an organizational method that develops the concept. No essential creation is necessary, as converting form alone develops the concept.
CREATING AND ORGANIZING
Is it time to create or is it time to organize? Don’t mix the two up. There’s a right time for both. If you’re in one and it’s good, don’t transition yet. Look for the signs of it going south. All sessions naturally end, so just wait it out. Maintain the system well, and prolong the act of creation.
GENERAL INPUT
You should have a space where all concepts and words are welcome anywhere. Never feel unsure of when or where to place your words. Although your words will end up somewhere else, for the time being, they should have a home. You can judge or delete them later.
A NEW THESIS FOR LIFE
Projects are all that matter. Everything should be for the development of projects. Use your spare moments of freedom to develop projects you care about to innovate, expand, and break free.
THE OBJECTIVE
Crossing off the task. Completing the mission. Finishing the job. This is the objective. Concepts under development should contain the objective of development to further enhance development.
FORM AND IDENTITY
Having a baseline of conceptual form and nothing more is the minimum amount of data required for a concept to be a concept. It’s a template. We add form by connecting additional concepts to it. The concept remains a concept, but possesses an identity.
THRESHOLD OF SIGNIFICANCE
Objectives are the schematic concepts of hypothetical realities. Concepts with objectives have a greater chance at developing into full existence. Subjects carrying out objectives should measure for a threshold of significance. In all systems, development gravitates toward the most significant. If it does not pass the threshold, development does not occur.
ACCESSIBILITY
Within each session, the subject expresses itself to an objective medium. Each medium requires a special form of expression. Accessibility to the medium is determined by the subject’s knowledge of the medium’s form. Each expression should be formally encoded for that medium. Concentration of will affects accessibility. A strong focus of will develops the concept well.
WILL AND EXPERIENCE
We do not experience will. We experience the outcome of will. The experience is played back to us as a result of willing. A subject should account for the delay between will and experience.
TIME
Without the competition of systems, the universe would instantaneously collapse. Beginning and ending would be one and the same. In an instant, all development would end.
CONTEXT
A concept’s form is an objective wrapper encoded by a subject and decoded by another subject. The shape is contextual, formed by general influence and specific influence. The subject’s ability to skillfully form a concept represents the subject’s clarity and accuracy in communication, which affects accessibility to their concept.
SUBJECTIVITY
We the Subject-Systems convert Concept to Object, and Object to Concept. We navigate both landscapes in a constant state of Becoming.
