Ma, All, 


Amazing how World University and School is on Google Maps Earth TensorFlowAI, - and click on the Google Maps' link in the Open Band Berkeley Tweet to see this:



And this is 670A Ridgecrest Rd Canyon ...

(which, hypothetically, I could move back into if state of California law and MD psychiatry . . .  ...) 

('walking' from ...
538 Ridgecrest
https://maps.app.goo.gl/qXUu6yzhzzvgHZQA6 in Street View with time slider)

AND 
if ... I could further develop this with actual-virtual physical-digital online developments, including regarding a realistic virtual earth for genetics ... and a physical genetic engineering revolution science laboratory farm-let with 6 species for studying, humans, genetically, and Drosophila fly, bees, chickens, mice and dogs (the genomics too of flight in 3 of these species in addition to longevity especially in Drosophila flies, an experimental lab species for decades (bees, for VR modeling of hive behavior, too possibly but maybe not as easy to work with ... But bees for VR modeling honey production, AND chickens for VR modeling egg production ... Yum)...

AND 
if we're in the process of learning how to add genes to help human beings live beyond 122 years of age, and if one could even head into online CC-4 OCW MIT.edu centric "WUaS's 'Longevity Genetics' Institute" here from virtual Ridgecrest Rd Canyon and give online a sample of one's genes (like saliva), into one's avatar bot electronic medical record, and move the time slider forward (and here's an easy to access 'time slider' example at the Harbin Hot Springs' Gate House, btwn 2007 < & > 2012 ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~) and see one's own avatar years in the future say at123 years' old,, and add virtual genetic information to this, and transform one's avatar bot further, and then import this new information back into one's own physical body, that would be a pretty good university development and offering. 


Pics from culturally familiar Wisdom Creek Ranch in Oregon, - and as inspiration even for 670A Ridgecrest Rd Canyon? (And are those mountains the WallowaMountains for sure, Annie?):)

Columbia River Gorge, Oregon, #WisdomCreekRanch (the sustainable tree farm my uncle created since 1959), cousin Annie Brown looking at the #WallowaMountains from near my grandparents' ashes, #NEOregon 7 years ago, Oregon Trail Info on Hwy 84 near Idaho http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Oregon?m=0 ~

Not sure where the National Science Foundation (NSF) grant writing process stands now ... Waiting I think to hear back further from NSF admin Alexandra Medina-Borja about this. But could NSF funding help set up this Actual-Virtual Physical-Digital longevity research beyond 123 yo?

Fondly,
Scott

Hi Ma, Joan, All, 


Amazing cloud hovering just over the SF Bay this morning, with only Mount Tamalpais visible, and the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Sutro Towers above Twin Peaks in SF (where I enacted MacBeth Act V, Scene V with Marc Dupuis and Dorota Ploch in 1999, and near where I lived on upper 3632 Market St then too ... took brief video -  
https://photos.app.goo.gl/YLdf4ugPmuDwzpru7 - (but in the voice over while I mention Mt Tam, the GG Bridge towers, and the Sutro Tower above Twin Peaks, and a tower south of, one CAN'T see these smaller human made structures, only the impressive Mt Tam and Marin's hills to its south ... it's amazing to be able to produce such a high quality video otherwise so quickly)
which is NOT here now in a blog entry from today (although the video URL appears to be there in blogger.com on my smart phone, having uploaded it, ... I can't complete the final step due to coding), with Lacan focus too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/red-fir-abies-magnifica-amazing-how.html  :)

Been working hard seeking to shut down some illegal sex rings in the SF Bay Area, part of the international illegal sex industry even - speculatively - and if the state of CAlifornia can get its act together further (with dwindling coronavirus non-epidemic pandemic memes - replicating cultural units - still circulating), and . . .  possibly some social justice will have been achieved, and potentially prevention of more of the same possibly multiple tragedies, into the future. But infamies abounding potentially,  . . .  is infamous,  or others in Canyon too, it is also an 'in-family' - and may abound too in 'in-fam-ie-s' ... and an old community, and while I've stayed out of it significantly, and there are lots of independent-minded, possibly hard-scrabble, stay at home libertarians individuals in Canyon ... and I don't think I'll have to deal too much with the 'infamies' there, were I to move back in ...  I'm still concerned about the in-family-ness there, since I haven't been in this 'family' and don't want to be in-family either (and am a bit isolated in my thinking and writing too over in this 'safe house' north of Berkeley ... ) ... so I wonder how best to continue to call for abolition in some of these regards!  So questions continue to rise to mind about moving into Canyon and how things would develop there, if I somehow were to, if way were to open, for example.   

Warmly, Scott

Am wondering if World Univ & Sch could develop a realistic virtual earth for genetics out of Canyon for those 6 species too, whether we'd be able to create such hybrids ... eg putting Drosophila wings on bees, and bee wings on Drosophila flies ... for further cultural innovation, but lack of familiarity ... and all regarding a WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute regarding humans living to more than 123 years old potentially :) Could Stanford help with staffing such a research institute in Canyon somehow, and regarding safety questions too ? :)

Fondly, Scott

Regarding Stanford staffing brainstorming, see - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/ki-kuts-falls.html

"(THANKS NORVIG AND HENNESSY?) ...

 It would be great if Stanford could invest in some properties along the ridge next to where you visited me at 670 Ridgecrest Canyon, Sue, too ... And even for developing a Lego Robotics' Institute (thanks to Peter Norvig) ...  and some longevity animal hospital laboratories, including for keeping Drosophila fly, with Stanford staffing, and for a realistic virtual earth for genetics/everything, and even a field site for Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springs' Ethnographic book project in East Bay MUD near that rusted tank for water for cattle (and much closer than Harbin too)! ... A California thing? An investment in property in East Bay MUD, a collaboration with Independent OCW.MIT.Edu -centric Work World University and School? :)"

Could someone as knowledgeable Elizabeth Karlsson (eg https://twitter.com/eenork/status/1374216872384724993?s=20) at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT guide the development of such a realistic virtual earth for genetics (above), and even engaging the Google Street View with time slider, Maps, Earth with TensorFlowAI, with avatar bot electronic medical records, and from Massachusetts? Could she, brainstorming-wise, work with all 6 of these species' genomes (or 7 with a chimpanzee's genomics too), since she working much with dogs' genetics presently?

Talking ~ Jacques Lacan MD ~ https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/lacan/ ~ Borromean & Gordian knots 


Ma, All, 

Really, really nice to talk last night, Ma, and thanks for talking so much. :)

While we talked about many things (in new ways in my experience of your language-use and thinking), I wanted to find out more what Lacan MD, and George Alexander MD too, intended - symbolically I'd think - with the Borromean knot, and possibly the Gordian knot, both of which knots George and I talked about years ago (and possibly when I was living in Canyon 94516 on the phone, but I think before that). The 'Gordian' knot does have word-parallels with my and Dad's names too! 

Lacan at times had a focus on mathematics and regarding the Lacanian psychoanalytic thinking he was talking about too.


And I can see these two knots as symbolic of family interconnections, and inter-subjectivities, among nuclear family members, for example.

From the Lacan article in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (and both Lacan and George were philosophical, quite, and smart): 
"By the 1970s, with his meditations on the topological figure of the Borromean knot—this knotting of three rings, pictured on the coat of arms of the Borromeo family, is arranged such that if one ring is broken, all three are set free in disconnection—Lacan emphasizes the mutual dependence of the registers on one another."

https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/lacan/

And - 
"In mathematics, the Borromean rings are three simple closed curves in three-dimensional space that are topologically linked and cannot be separated from each other, but that break apart into two unknotted and unlinked loops when any one of the three is cut or removed ..."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borromean_rings



And while I don't know if Lacan explored psychoanalytic thinking regarding the symbol of the Gordian knot, here's a view on what it is -

"The Gordian Knot is a legend of Phrygian Gordium associated with Alexander the Great. It is often used as a metaphor for an intractable problem (untying an impossibly tangled knot) solved easily by finding an approach to the problem that renders the perceived constraints of the problem moot ("cutting the Gordian knot"):"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordian_Knot

Are we all bound, Ma, in our family in Borromean or Gordian KNOTS (a tightly bundled woven or entangled string or rope or line object) ... and did George see the MacLeods that way too? Perhaps.

And while I can imagine Lacan also engaging and supplanting, or dislocating from psychoanalytic theory, Freud's Oedipus complex for related family dynamics' questions (what an awful legacy of Freud to cast a central tenet psychoanalysis in these terms, and how psychoanalytic many patients might he have lost even with the possibly inexorable fatefulness of this thinking and from this ancient Greek drama, I wonder? ... As I think about it, the judgmentalism of Freudianism is not healthy between analysts and analysands (a word I learned from George, with very different social psychological connotations from patient), for ex. ... John Money Ph.D. also touches in passing on such judgmentalism in Freudianism - http://scottmacleod.com/JohnMoneyConceptsOfDeterminism.html ... per below "In the clinic it has the special virtue of freedom from the idioms of judgmentalism that haunt motivation theory") ... and I think George appreciated John Money's Concepts of Determinism and other thinking from our conversations. I don't know if George Alexander MD knew John Money from Pittsburgh PA too ... or whether they overlapped ... 


I can also imagine George in his symbolic, language and intellectual/theoretical thinking substituting the Gordian knot (even with its references to Alexander the Great) for Lacan's Borromean knot ... 

And whether or NOT :) knots were of interest to Lacan, regardless of their adjectives ... I don't know. 

Thoughts, Ma? We talked about so much and these "knots" - which I clarified a bit with you in my mentioning Borromean and Gordian knots - are just a sign or just a symbolic direction, I'm heading in a little further thinking-wise, and re our conversation. 

Can language or conversation, such as we shared last night, be ways of cutting the Gordian knot? ... Thanks so so much for sharing all you did, Ma, last night!  

What are some of all of your thoughts about Jacques Lacan's thinking? 

And more about yesterday's emails with some of you about living beyond 122 years of age with genetic engineering, and even a hippy commune possibly emerging in the Berkeley Hills in East Bay MUD here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/california-incense-cedar-culturally.html :)

Love, Scott  
May add some of this to the Lacan label in my daily blog - 


"The five universal exigencies of being human, and the strategies of inhibition, adhibition, and explication constitute a conceptual or theoretical system to apply to sexological research in society and culture, as well as in the clinic. The system applies also to sexological diagnosis and prognosis in sex counseling and therapy. In the history of sexology, it is a system of post-Freudian, postmotivational psychodynamics. ...  In the clinic it has the special virtue of freedom from the idioms of judgmentalism that haunt motivation theory."

Thanks Ma so much for talking yesterday.

You are wonderful ! Seemed to have touched base with your talking 'unconscious' mind in a new way - and about things medical too. Seems to be a mother thing culturally in part to want their children to get vaccinated currently (even though it's not the law) - and perhaps a son thing here to seek for family members to be law-abiding, I think. 

We talked about SARS CoV2 by extension, and the recent Covid-19 pandemic genes, HIV, and Polio on the VIRUS side of life, and about Tuberculosis (TB) and Diptheria-Tetanus-Pertussis (DPT) on the BACTERIA side of life ... about Dad too as Secretary of Health in Pennsylvania in 1979 working with the Amish regarding polio vaccines to eradicate polio in the state of PA.

MD psychiatry therapist for my offspring when they become teens - when psychotherapy could work in their teens (possibly pre skepticism) - & to prepare them for life to come in smart ways as adults? Could be good to somehow meet and marry a 25-28 year old attractive (radiantly warm earth mother kind of woman?) MD ! ... Could THUS potentially marry great caring smart ethics as a consequence. :)

Glad to have received an invitation from Henry and Victoria to visit them in Randolph NH WHEN I'm back east! :) And see you soon. 

More about exploring the unconscious mind below. Appreciating my daily (yoga) meditation - beneficial inner bodymind releasing action, relaxation response-wise - with regards to the unconscious mind too. :)

Love, Scott
