Informational Universe

Bateson distinguished the physical universe from the world of life by introducing his terms Pleroma and Creatura. I follow suit and further distinguish aspects of Creatura with my terms Sentiens, Persona ... (Dementia, Geekoma ...)

I see this activity as very much in line with Korzybski's efforts with semantics as expressed in his book of 1933. I see Bateson's Creatura-as-distinct-from-Pleroma as very much an extension of Korzybskian semantics: as indeed is my own Macroinformation, especially the Existential Sets aspect of Macroinformation — my informational cosmology.

this bald statement will expands shortly
