Statement of Purpose


The Universal Language of Consilience is in the development towards a system of clearly recognizing, understanding, and communicating the unity of all knowledge, and the interrelationship of all complex systems.

To establish consilience will be the proof that all systems--biological and technological--are organized in terms of a small number of fundamental, natural principles. In distinguishing these principles, and in developing a universal metalanguage to communicate these principles (along side our standard language)--we may begin to build bridges across the gaps of misunderstanding that exists about the fragmented systems (social, economical, ideological, etc.) of the world--towards a realization of the unity that binds a global culture.

The Universal Language of Consilience is being constructed of nine (9) distinct principles contained in Holonomic ParaSignifiers (HPSs). An HPS is holonomic in the sense that--like a hologram--the knowledge contained within the signifier can be applied to any system, signified across all levels of organization, within a micro or macro context. Like the fractalized nature of an oak tree--the whole is representative of all parts, and each part of the whole.

An HPS may be represented through various modes and forms. One such form is that of a Synaesthesic MetaGlyph (SMG): a visual and audio representation of the principle being signified, compounding meaning to the receiving consciousness through a degree of synaesthesia. SMGs are being designed to be presentable through multimedia and hypermedia forms of communication.

The power involved in forming a Universal Language of Consilience, and utilizing such a system of communication may assist in transcending the established paradigm of dualistic and reductionistic perception, into one of the holistic and interrelated perception that is to become our reality.
