Is the Dymaxion Web is a single field theory? After all, intutition brings us beyond physics into the area of metaphysics. Even as web theory, the nolion that hypercommunication leads to better understanding, I am preparing to cut myself off the connection links and get out into the world. Essentialy, the dymaxion web depends upon knowledge and intution as well as our ability to communicate neuron-like across the newly frictionless web. And so I will travel for a couple of months, see things a little differently and, hopefully, overcome the absence of high speed connectivity. I plan to continue to report my thoughts several times a week, though through a dial-up connection here and there.
The fundamental forces won't change. For better or worse, we all live in an economic world calibrated, it seems, to the Amercian way of plastic: debt spending, hocked houses, consumerism, the dollar standard represented by an uninhibited printing press in Washington, the export of jobs from the US to Asia, etc; all that is part of a secular trend that appears destined to hold if only to be detoured by a major (tetonic) shift.
Making preparations for the trip have held up my piece on Andy Grove's thinking as rrelated to the group in Washington but I promise to get that report done, though probably not after my Halloween in the south of France not too far from the Spanish border.
