1978 A Collage of Portraits Reflecting a Complex Character's Journey

This image is a collage featuring multiple portraits that collectively form the facial features and expressions of what appears to be one central figure. The style suggests an artistic representation, with each face contributing unique elements such as age variations, emotions, or accessories like glasses or hats. This could symbolize various aspects of a person's life experiences, identity, or even different personalities within oneself.

The text is not present in the image; therefore, it cannot be described here.

Here's the beginning of a prospective blog series I started … this topic interacts strongly with a host of others I've been struggling to articulate over the years …

❝Computations or Processes —
How do you think about the building blocks of the brain?❞

I keep coming back to this thread about levels, along with others on the related issue of paradigms, as those have long been major questions for me. I am trying to clarify my current understanding for a blog post. It will start out a bit like this —

A certain amount of “level” language is natural in the sciences but “level” metaphors come with hidden assumptions about higher and lower places in hierarchies which don't always fit the case at hand. In complex cases what look at first like parallel strata may in time be better comprehended as intersecting domains or mutually recursive and entangled orders of being. When that happens we can guard against misleading imagery by speaking of domains or realms instead of levels.

To be continued …

It's important not to insult your audience. Assume they know their craft well but you have something to offer. You need to show them how your world intersects with theirs in a way they understand. It needs to be emotional and relevant to them, otherwise they won't care. And once you have the connection and they understand you, then you can use the shortcut technical term. Everytime you say it the audience should recall the structure and nature of the thing. #SymbolicRepresentation
