SEMIOTIC MACHINES: by Louis Armand (Joyce, McLuhan, Shannon, Weiner, Von Neumann)
SEMIOTIC MACHINES: by Louis Armand, presents a number of passages that see James Joyce, McLuhan, Shannon, Weiner, Von Neumann, criss-crossing and pollinating the tale of the tribe with a Joycean, atomic, digital glossing. Also invoking Orson Welles through the reference to expanded cinema of Gene Yougblood, this essay exhibits the highest standards of critical writing … Continue reading SEMIOTIC MACHINES: by Louis Armand (Joyce, McLuhan, Shannon, Weiner, Von Neumann)

Shannon Info, Jung-Paul Synchro, digital holographic DNA cosmology stuffing
Is preparing food for my nerdrons: Claude Shannon's Information Theory and DNA sequencing as fresh news that seems to me a hopeful avenue for some cutting edge research: "What they prove is that there is a channel capacity that defines a maximum rate of information flow during the process of sequencing. " It gives the … Continue reading Shannon Info, Jung-Paul Synchro, digital holographic DNA cosmology stuffing

With a focus on RAW's book 'Coincidance' in which he defines DNA based information theory through a Joycean measure of the redundancy of information, poetry as information, … Continue reading Shannon’s Mathematical Theory of Communication Applied to DNA Sequencing
