I am a peaceful person, I like the light, humorous style, puns, no wars. I accept the opposing opinions as long as they are compatible with mine. This WEB-site is dedicated to the ideas I developed upon recent readings for the sole purpose of giving them off for discussion - to learn more. I do not seek an official acknowledgement for my ideas, no position, award, or title. The ideas are controversial, I try to present them so as to get the reader's understanding not necessarily a consent.
I was born at a very young age. A young aunt was living with us studying for her piano-degree, so at 2, sitting on the pot, I hummed a Beethoven Sonata. Which took care of my earliest decision for a carreer: to become a concert-pianist. That lasted from age 6 till these days, I still perform before select audiences. Study it was actively: till 18, when I chose another profession to escape from the military draft for WWII (in Hungary).
That escape-study was chemistry where I felt like an alien. Dutifully I did my learning share and got my Ph.D.(chem-phys-math) at the half a millennium old Pazmany University in Budapest. Two decades and a successful R&D work later, I got a Doctorate of Natural Scineces (Eotvos Univ. Budapest) as well and a Candidacy to the National Academy of Sciences for the industrial implementation of contemporary types of Ion Exchangers upon my patents and effort, done as a department-head at the Hungarian Plastics Research Institute. Then came two more decades in the US in polymers-activity, consulting on 3 continents and R&D managerial work which finally allowed me to retire from Ciba-Geigy from the position of senior research fellow.
Now I could start reading and thinking. First I wrote a sci-fi about the development of humankind with the aid of 6-D alien scientists, spanning from the time before life on Earth to 20,000BC. It was rejected both in the US and in Europe, for having insufficient sex and violence and too much science in it. Of these three: violence I hate, sex I consider something to practice, not to study, so I resorted to science.
I fiercely participated in internet discussions on consciousness, (the aspects covering more than just a practical lab- neurophysiology) and on the refutation of the Big Bang (you saw: I can write my own sci-fi!) and read lots of NEW literature. What caught my interest: a 'physicist' stated at a conference in Berkeley that the thought cannot be the sole product of the brain-tissue. The name was David Bohm and I jumped on his 1988-book: "Wholeness and the Implicate Order". That did it: one book drew the other about chaos, self-organization, holism, systems science, evolution-games, even the Journal of Consciousness Studies (with their JCS-Online list) and I found myself in formulating a worldview within natural science but without the formalistic physicalities - to think and further develop the idea what Bohm started as his "implicate" - separated from what he termed "explicate". In an underlying (chaotic) system I rather take sides with Gleick's 'chaos' than with that of the physical chaologists. In the term of 'complexity' I detected (in Fritjof Capra's book!) A. Bogdanov and his tectology of 1910-20.
The rest is speculation to avoid the paradoxes and obsolete
axioms of our 200+ year old learned science, continually and feverishly amended
as our epistemic inventory increases. Over the past decade or so my views change
continuously: when I find something 'better', I don't stick to the 'old
glory'. A consequence: Dear Reader, don't you believe those
(my) ideas which will appear on these pages: they may be amended or abandoned in
no time flat. I write them because I find them interesting and perhaps they
contribute to a fertilization of further thinking (mine and yours, that
is).
