Postmodernism #4

One thing you should know about the information age, about postmoderism.

Secret#1

It is all about launguage.

No knowledge that cannot be transfer-translated-or-caputured by a computer will survive the postmoder transformation. Period the end.

If it cannot be be put into a computer language, it is not knowledge.

Experiences, dreams... not knowledge.

Words and text... knowledge, power.

Pictures... worth a thousand words.

If you master the art of communication, if you are able to translate your knowledge into a computer, if you are able to use launguage (not as many people as you think are really capable of this) to communicate your knowledge, if you can transfer it to a computer and thus share it with the postmodern-cyber-image-media driven world, then you have leanred the art of...

Postmoderism.

Language is magic.

Smoke and mirrors.

Rhyme and reason.

Law and rules.

Math and science.

Religion and philosophy.

Everything.

The reality of many people, people take books for literal truth.

Books are falable because they are created by man.

Text is meaningless, unless it has meaning. Who gets to descide?

You do.

So go ahead.
