hello listmembers. this is a short announcement to
let persons on the lists know that the autobiography
on the ~e.org website has been reinterpreted. the
concept of 'automated madness vs. humanity' will still
be included in the new website, which relates the past
with the prior content, the present with educational
explorations and ideas, and the future with proposals
for electromagnetism in society.
the one note is that, being a work in development, it
is mainly the same content, but more content will come
online in a similar manner as to what is there tonight.
also, the 'public project' has been renamed 'Towards a
Human Understanding of EM Civilization'.
the one thing needing to be stated at this time is that
the whole project, from its previous incarnation to the
present one, and the process of discovering more about
the goals of the project, and how people relate or do
not relate to the ideas, or their re-presentation, has
been both very informative and disturbing, and so this
new site seeks to address the same issues in a somewhat
different manner, yet to keep the realm of ideas similar.
especially as regards the idea of 'automatism' and auto-
mated madness and humanity, or versus humanity. in that
this quite old view of things, from an educational stand-
point, still has quite a bit of relevance, in terms of
how things work with language, identity, logic, and the
relations between people. all the things needed to share
ideas, knowledge, and to create and collaborate together.
so texts about ideas such as this concept are hopefully
going to be developed, to communicate what this means
with regard to electromagnetism and civilization.

please send any feedback to: human@electronetwork.org
thanks. (the use of the plural 'towards' was chosen as
'human' is meant in both plural and singular vantages.)
