... The bill you are about to read is from the cut-up, which reiterate, is "a poetic composition of randomness. But here, chance gives way to synchronicity .....

(E) n 1944, Van Vogt decided to settle in the U.S. [..] their choice is [..] on California. Discovery of general semantics with the reading of the book Science and Sanity Korzybski , which excite the ideas. There is indeed a systematic design that are already present in his work. [..]"semantics," says Van Vogt, discusses the significance of meanings, or meanings of words. The general semantics deals with the relationship of the human nervous system and the outside world, and then it includes semantics. It is a method of integration for every thought and every human experience. " Rationalist logic, philosophy non-A is also for individual self-care and a path to liberation ethics. The way to a better awareness of reality. No doubt it is this aspect that appeals van Vogt that in fact the basis of his most famous novel: The world of null -A (The World of a).[...]The General Semantics [..] means the system not Aristotelian and non-Newtonian, as designated late Alfred Korzybski in his book Science and Sanity . Do not be frightened by these words: non-Aristotelian is simply a spirit that no longer conforms to the mode of thought, frozen for nearly 2000 years, followers of Aristotle. Non-Newtonian apply to the new Einsteinian universe as it is now defined by science. The abbreviation is not Aristotelian or non-A [..]
... [...] General Semantics deals with the meaning of meanings. Thus it transcends and surpasses language. Its essential idea is that meaning can be understood if one considers the nervous system and collection system humans who were the vectors and filters. Thus, because of the limitations of his nervous system, humans can not understand that part of the truth and never full. In describing this limitation, Korzybski uses the term "level of abstraction," a term which in him has no symbolic distinction but simply means "of abstract", that is to say, take part at all. Indeed he claims that by observing a natural process, man can only abstract - that is to say in charge - a party.... If I had been content to present the ideas of General Semantics, nobody would have found to say about it but in truth, as a writer, I wanted to go further in the study of a paradox. Since the theory of relativity of Einstein we know that in an experiment, one must consider the observer, it is something that is perfectly permissible, for example in history where we consider that racial prejudice, or religious writers have influenced them. However, most people believe, from the moment it is an exact science known as chemistry or physics, that personality is irrelevant since observers operators different nationality or religion all come the same results. This is false. All scientific investigator is limited by its ability to abstract information on the nature of the education system that he has received from his parents and then to university. As stated in the General Semantics, each researcher brought his personal equation in its research, [..]. In other words, the observer is always a definite person.
From the afterword to The World of Ā by A . E . V year V ogt and Future Perfect of P atrice D uvic .[..]... Thus, TO The world of this man not Aristotelian whose thoughts are nuanced (Never white or pure black) who, however, do not pay into cynicism or rebellion.
