Animal Intelligence and Body become a Membrane…Trans-ethics, Trans-creatures, Trans-sense creating an amalgam of Enigmatic Relations…

J. Von Uexküll raised the notion of the “Umwelt”, in which each living creature inhabits their own world by sensing, reading and acting according to the signs they each require for survival. For each, their individual world appears differently. What appears for the human is simply one aspect of a world which is full of invisible, inperceivable information.

Throughout history the human being has defined itself as the only intelligent creature basing its existence on proportional relationships, abstract symbols and a directed will to change the world intentionally. But what is the true differentiating factor between the breadth of animals and the human? When the human moves into a deeper study of cognitive science or genome analysis, the difference between the two is neither the material or weight of the brain nor the number of Genomes, but simply the difference in the combination or relation of networks. This difference lies not in a material or object-base but in the dynamic process of information networks.

So why ponder the meaning of intelligence? In this context intelligence is the open system for flexibly incorporating, processing differences and information for possibly and perhaps necessary mutations. We humans relate to these other creatures - animals, plants and other natural phenomenon - as one of many nodes in a complete system, which is as full of enigmatic relations as scientific equations.

The existing notion of body, perception, language, space, time is rebooted in an enigmatic set of relations such that excess and existence blur on the horizon.
Welcome to being a part of EnigmaAnagma!
