We are exploring anti-reductionist computational metaphors for mathematics, computing, evolution, creativity and a vision of humanity that does not reduce us to (mere) mechanical devices. The conceptual toolkit used in this research includes algorithmic information theory, hyper-computation, transreal numbers, incompleteness, undecidability, and extends to questions regarding man/machine relations and their social, subjective and aesthetic consequences, networked computing and networks of networks. The overall style is that of post-modern (post Gödel and Turing) mathematics and computing, and leads to an open rather than closed, a rhizomatic or networked rather than hierarchical, view of biology, of mathematics, computing, and of human cognition that constitutes our contemporary self-image.
