2 hours of 33 into it. This far part brain-scramble, part semiotic word salad. Entirely brilliant in the way it's shaking my etch-a-sketch especially on the tail-winds of Surfaces and Essence and before that Dennett's Intuition Pumps. It takes Hofstadter's style of wordplay to a delicious level when you think about the effect of this rapid round of neologisms. #biosemiotics #socialpresence Ping to +John Kellden

*Beautiful definition of "bullshit" in Anathema!*. I must go back and parse it out later as it does a master job of demonstrating the technique of abstraction and recontextualization I'm trying to pull off for #postcardsfromdistorpia as explained in Surfaces and Essences by Hofstadter. #biosemiotics
