Principles
Universe
The universe is inherently based on probability. It is based on a linear process. It is not intentional. It is not designed. It is random.
It is dysfunctional.
Humans
Humans are created from the universe.
Their creation, lives, interactions are inherently based on probability.
Humans are born into the world as electro-magnetic, nuclear, electro-chemical, organic blanks.
They form as electro-chemical conglomerates without memory or abilities.
Their brains; a detector that detects itself detecting; forms in stages.
They are inherently dysfunctional.
Memories
Human memories; their encoded responses to constant environmental input; form in stages.
Semantic memory; the sensory input of human languages, names, signs and symbols that their culture and society have already developed; form first and continue to develop throughout their lives.
Episodic memory; the sensory input of the interaction of each human with the universe that forms experiences; originally forms between the ages of two and five and then continues throughout their lives.
Memories; constant electro-magnetic, electro-chemical interactions with the universe; are stored and processed all over the brain and overlap in the area of the brain called the Hippocampus.
Memories are inherently dysfunctional.
Programmed Robots
Humans are programmed by their parents and the society they exist in.
They are continually fed with information and required to respond in the correct manner.
Their semantic responses are formed through the language of the culture they are born into.
Their episodic responses are formed through the language and cultures they move through.
However since all cultures exist in different environments, resource levels, energy levels, population numbers, group sizes languages and literacy levels the information all humans are fed with is in a random form and their responses equally chaotic to each situation.
Humans are therefore dysfunctional programmed robots.
Using the Robots
The whole population is put to work to assist the overall society to exist.
During work those with a standard or low education; an incomplete knowledge of their constant sensory input; are constantly educated to a higher level within their own work skills.
Those with further education form the hierarchy of a society. They are trained to question the existing society in relation to the current context. They are then asked to provide their opinions to assist the society to adapt and evolve to allow for all future changes.
No part of the population has sufficient, correct, semantic or episodic sensory input or communication to perceive all of the sensory input, arts, literature, sciences, laws of the total society.
All society is therefore inherently dysfunctional and constantly adapting and evolving to seasonal events and human created situations.
Data Examples
Taking the UK as an example of this dysfunctional nature.
UK
Population = 64,100,000
Languages = over 100
= 300 different languages spoken in schools in 2015.
Laws = 75,820
Literacy = 99% of population
Education 5yrs – 18yrs = 13 years of education.
= 6 hours per day in school over 190 days in a year.
= 1140 hours of education per year.
= 14,820 hours in total.
Total life span = 81.50 years
= 24 x 365
= 8760 x 81.50
= 713,940 hours in total
The UK is dysfunctional as a society because it is a product of the universe, humans, memories, programmed human robots and constant adaptation and evolution to seasonal events and human created situations.
The literacy level; the knowledge of their constant sensory input; is high as a society.
The number of languages creates dysfunctions.
The total hours of education only amounts to 2% of their total life span.
Taking Great Britain and the Commonwealth as an example of this dysfunctional nature.
The Great Britain covers 6,289 islands within 4 main countries, 14 overseas territories each with their own island chains, 3 Crown Dependencies with their own island chains, and 52 Commonwealth Nations.
There are 64,100,000 people in the UK in 2016
There were 250,000 people in the overseas territories in 2010
There were over 250,000 people in the Crown Dependencies.
Population = 2,300,000,000 Approx.
One third of the world Population.
Languages = over 1000
Laws = over 100 legal systems in over 1000 languages
Literacy = 68% of population in 2010
= 680,000,000 people could neither read or write.
Education 5yrs – 18yrs = 13 years of education allowing the same over the Commonwealth.
= 6 hours per day in school over 190 days in a year.
= 1140 hours of education per year.
= 14,820 hours in total.
Total life span = 42 to 82 years
= 24 x 365
= 8760 x 42 ( and 82)
= 367,920 hours to 718,320 in total.
Great Britain and the Commonwealth is dysfunctional as a society because it is a product of the universe, humans, memories, programmed human robots and constant adaptation and evolution to seasonal events and human created situations.
The population level is higher than the UK and so creates more variety of interaction and so more opportunity for dysfunction.
The literacy level; the knowledge of their constant sensory input; is lower than the UK as a society.
The number of languages is higher than the UK and so creates more dysfunctions.
The total hours of education only amounts to 2% of the total life span across all parts of Great Britain and the Commonwealth
Taking the World as an example of this dysfunctional nature.
Population = 7,400,000,000.
Languages = 7000 including computer languages.
Laws = 196 countries with over 7000 languages operating legal systems.
Literacy = 86.3% for all people over 15.
= 758 million illiterate adults
Education 5yrs – 18yrs = 13 years of education allowing the same over the World as UK.
= 6 hours per day in school over 190 days in a year.
= 1140 hours of education per year.
= 14,820 hours in total.
Total life span = 71 years
= 24 x 365
= 8760 x 71
= 621,960 hours in total.
The World is dysfunctional as a society because it is a product of the universe, humans, memories, programmed human robots and constant adaptation and evolution to seasonal events and human created situations.
The population level is higher than the UK or Great Britain and the Commonwealth and so creates more variety of interaction and so more opportunity for dysfunction.
The literacy level; the knowledge of their constant sensory input; is lower than the UK and Great Britain and the Commonwealth as a society.
The number of languages is higher than the UK and Great Britain and the Commonwealth and so creates more dysfunctions.
The total hours of education only amounts to 2% of the total life span across all parts of the World.
Conclusion
The universe is a random, interactive, detection, process.
The interaction is carried out at varying densities at a sub-atomic level.
The nature of this detector; that detects itself detecting; in the density of the human being is the human brain.
The human being is born as a recycled part of the universe.
It is born with incomplete senses which develop over time.
This ‘ageing’ is high speed evolution in response to semantic and episodic sensory input.
This creates a human being; a programmable but dysfunctional robot.
This dysfunction occurs in all human beings and their groups, cultures and societies.
The dysfunctional nature of the world as a society is apparent in constant communication, constant review, discussion, response change, language complexity, multiple communications, cultural variations, multi-lingual education systems, less efficiency, richer discussion relating to world context, and the inability of any population to know if they were breaking any laws.
Therefore any human society is inherently dysfunctional in its Architecture; ideas, concepts and beliefs.
