some point though I. also. realize. like a kind of substance redolent of<br />

molecularity the image is essentially a. mapping. of loose or open<br />

connectors symbolic ports which might be fitted out with a. myriad. of<br />

possible interpretive peripherals and how within the metaphor is a.<br />

recursion. like a seed coiled ready to begin its inscriptive and<br />

generative dance.. the metaphor and recursion being and creating the<br />

labyrinthal. . Babelith. three stages of trance hallucinations and three<br />

metaphors of Ortega. imprintsensation interpretationconsciousness.<br />

Ortega himself often said I and circumstance or Adam in Paradise.<br />

Though. the. language might seem. imply a separation between the<br />

subject and the object its meaning to Ortega. was. in fact a unity.. .<br />

Metaphorest. to not view the forest for all its trees. <strong>Re</strong>ality is linked to a<br />

point of view as Emerson's transparent eyeball. is linked to Boehme's<br />

Divine Imagination is linked to Leibnitz's Monadology is. linked to the<br />

Mind of the Middle Platonists is linked to both the Demiurge of. the.<br />

Timmaeus and also the Demiurges of both Alcinous and Numenious as<br />

well as the. Demiurge of Xenocrates which called his Demiurge the<br />

Monad.. It is in effect. a Natura (A Nature) a Metaphorrest and many of<br />

these linkages are in. disagreement. with one another based in the<br />

reality of perspective and upon their. perspective. upon reality. In<br />

Plotinus' Enneads for example the One is said to look at. himself with a<br />

selflooking identical with his being and to possess a. wakefulness. and a<br />

superintellection as his activity which is identical with his essence.<br />

which. perhaps brings us to the metaphoric creation of the metaphorrest<br />

as something. like Intellect which is not Intellect. A Nature is also the<br />

extension of a. program.. getting out of the algorithmic the 'recipes' of<br />

code. The claim that spacetime computes has nothing at all to do with<br />

symbol. manipulation. (read closely with paradox in mind) or numeric<br />

calculation it says that. physical. processes. are ultimately effective<br />

procedures (i.e. programs) functionally composed of. primitive. natural<br />

operations. Indeed digital metaphysics (fingers) requires us to think.<br />

differently. about programs themselves. . Think of how the Jacquard<br />

loom the player piano. and. even fertilized seeds and eggs are<br />

programmed. Programs are not recipes they. are. dynamic rational<br />

patterns (think of formal and final causes think of. entelechies).. More<br />

precisely programs are orderings of abstract transformations of abstract.<br />

states. of affairs.. Accordingly the FHPGAS program is just as true of<br />

any gas as the. NavierStokes. equation is if it be objected that the<br />

program is a mere simulation (and hence. some. how false or fictional)<br />

it may be replied that the equation is a mere. idealization. (and hence<br />
