Text of the page (random words):
in the direction of a unified theory of information without falling back into neither reduction nor anthropomorphisation to be able to succeed in an ambitious task like this the book advocates the application of complex systems theory and its philosophical underpinnings information needs to be interpreted in terms of self organisation to do justice to the richness of its manifestations the way the book does so will provide the reader with a deep insight into a basic feature of our world more february 4 2013 who am i who are we in the digital world posted by josé maría under book review tags

materialism 1 comment j m diaz rainerzimmermann interviewer josé maría díaz nafría interviewee rainer zimmermann date 09 11 2011 on the occasion of rainer zimmemann s 60 th birthday on november 9 th i met him in vienna while attending a whorkshop on system science chaired by wolfgang hofkirchner nearby the burg theatre we met in the pleasant atmosphere of the viennese café landtmann where he first sketched out to me his forthcoming book on schelling which i am now looking forward to hold in my hands before bringing up the matter for discussion let me give a short review of his scientific carrier rainer zimmermann born in berlin in 1951 studied mathematics and physics in germany and england not far from those who have formulated some of the best candidates to provide a unified understanding of the physical world then he arrived to philosophy after having deepened into the core knowledge of our natural sciences thus his philosophy has been a philosophia ultima in the first place as he advocates that it properly should be his academic itinerary shows an earnest dedication to both the updated knowledge about the world and a philosophical speculation driven to find a more adequate conception towards human life in its social praxis as professor of philosophy he has taught and developed extensive interdisciplinary research in berlin kassel and munich also in cambridge uk bologna and salzburg in the territory of philosophy he has dug into the work of sartre bloch schelling and spinoza among others finding out that among them there is an underground thinking line which goes back to both averroism and stoicism his inquiry into the work of these philosophers as we can see in his recent new ethics proved in geometrical order has not been a sort of mere archaeology of thinking or apologetic reflexion but a sort of heuristic approach to current problems of our knowledge and praxis and particularly in the understanding of complex evolutionary systems to this end he has respectfully followed the path pointed out by these authors though using the horizon of our current knowledge his approach can be better branded as transcendental materialism as he names it since 1990 he has authored about 350 publications including some 24 books and monographies scientific articles in a broad spectrum of topics from mathematics to ethics from physics to political systems j m in your writings you often refer to the necessity to reorient philosophy as it has been conceived in the 20th century in order to properly reflecting the world you mention that it should be visualized as a science of totality following the works of hans heinz holz and you also consider the task of your own philosophy the transcendental materialism as an ultima philosophia rather than a prima philosophia in the aristotelian sense referring to an expression introduced by theunissen for the first time as i understand both things are closed related can you explain in some detail the requirements of this reorientation as well as its alleged benefits r z the basic idea is that we cannot conceive a theoretical nucleus of what is traditionally called metaphysics as something which can be derived from first thoughts entailing then a picture of the world which prescribes so to speak the latter s evolution and structure instead we have to look first for what the sciences and the arts as to that are offering us in terms of insight this present state of knowledge is our raw material for constructing then the desired picture of the world such that philosophy can be visualized as one which follows up the scientific and artistic modeling of fragments of the world rather than laying the grounds for them this is theunissen s 1989 aspect of ultima philosophia and by doing so drafts out an overarching theory of everything whilst composing a meta theory telling us about what is common to the worldly fragments in structural terms but also about what we actually do or have to do when developing theories about the world in the first place this being holzen s aspect of philosophy as science of totality the important point is here that within this approach philosophy gains an explicitly empirical character it is thus possible to speak not only of theoretical and practical philosophy but also of experimental philosophy namely by exploring possible worlds whilst exploring possible implications of scientific and artistic results and viewpoints thanks to recent developments in computer technology these somehow artificial worlds can be modeled much more easily nowadays i have discussed these aspects in detail in my book on transcendental materialism and within the framework of the intas cooperation led from 2000 through 2005 by wolfgang hofkirchner obviously this type of philosophy is achieving nothing else than what philosophy is always achieving i e an improved orientation within the world in order to eventually draft adequate principles for an appropriate ethics

philosophy of information 1 comment luciano floridi the philosophy of information oxford uk oxford univesity press 2011 hardback 360 pp 55 00 as the author declares at the beginning of his book it brings together the outcome of ten years of research a project arisen by the intention of looking for a philosophy that could be free from the anthropocentric obsession with the knowing subject and from commonsensical introspection the result is a philosophy of information pi that can be articulated in three fundamental questions what is really information how is it understood investigated and manipulated how can information be used to cope with philosophical problems though obviously not all these broad and open questions can be fully answered and particularly not in the extent of a book this work can be regarded as a first serious attempt of laying down the principles and conceptual foundations of this new area of research named philosophy of information following floridi pi can be defined as the new philosophical field concerned with a the critical investigation of the conceptual nature and basic principles of information including its dynamics utilisation and sciences and b the elaboration and application of information theoretic and computational methodologies to philosophical problems in order to settle the principles of pi floridi pursues three goals which are metatheoretical introductory and analytic its metatheoretical goal is to describe what the philosophy of information is its problems approaches and methods its introductory goal is to help the reader to gain a better grasp of the complex and multifarious nature of the various concepts and phenomena related to information its analytic goal is to answer several key theoretical questions of great philosophical interest arising from the investigation of semantic information however it is in the analysis of meaning and his proposed general definition of information gdi where we found unnecessary the requirements of meaningfulness as well as truthfulness for semantic information as proposed by floridi if the final intention is to grasp the universality of information though it might be of course relevant in human contexts in other words we consider unsatisfactory the given approach to the symbol grounding problem i e how can data constituting semantic information acquire meaning in the first place to this respect we have elaborated a gdi revisiting programme see emergence and evolution of meaning more october 15 2011 new ethics proved in geometrical order an update of spinoza s approach to contemporary knowledge posted by josé maría under book review tags category theory ethics evolutionary sytems theory spinoza systematic philosophy topos theory 1 comment rainer e zimmermann new ethics proved in geometrical order spinozist reflexions on evolutionary systems litchfield park az usa emergent publications 2010 148 pp softback 24 95 electronic 19 95 the order and connection of ideas is the same as the order and connection of things states spinoza in the 7 th proposition of the second part of his ethic and we might consider this principle as a backbone of his entire work it helps us to understand why spinoza s main work was an ethic proved in geometrical order instead of having writing for instance a physics proved such way if spinoza had at hand the conceptual methods developed today in mathematics and physics he would for sure take advantage of them and he could arrive to a much better end of his intention rainer zimmermann explained to me once talking about the possibilities of contemporary mathematics in relation to the understanding of complex systems this thought also helped me to understand why professor zimmermann mathematician physicist and philosopher himself author of the so called transcendental materialismus have also devoted part of his extensive work to ethical problems recruiting conceptualizations that takes explicit account of current physics and mathematics his philosophy does not pretend to be a prima philosphia in the aristotelian sense but rather a suitable ultima philosophia of considerable heuristic value as he considers to be offered by the line of systematic philosophy represented by schelling bloch and sartre this book of prof zimmermann explicitly shows the potentiality referred to in his comment concerning spinoza s intention and brings to the fore a contemporary mathematical machinery based on a strict logical structure for a progressive perspective as well as on a not so strict hermeneutic structure for a regressive perspective in the solution to the ancient problem of the relationship between human beings and the rest of nature zimmermann s book recontextualise spinoza s approach and proves how the theory of evolutionary systems is a prime candidate for a conceptualization that might be useful in order to concretely develop this new insight concerning the interdisciplinary methodology as proposed by the author and needed for a proper investigation of information in its broad variety of mathematical natural social technical and humanistic aspects zimmermann s approach offers a promissory path that is worth to be considered by those trying to find proper foundations for an interdisciplinary science of in...
