Chapter 3 - Material 4: The Mechanism of Reason

The Mechanism of Reason is the Social Sciences' equivalent of Theory of Everything.

In an attempt to find the building block of reason, similar to Otori's quantum as the building block of reality, psychologist Phil Stone combines Pavlov's dog experiment with territorial marking behaviour phenomenon, declaring that names is the building block of reason.

His theory states that humanity marking their territories not by producing scent etc to mark said territory, but producing sound by man's vocal organs to be associated with a particular territory with different sound for different territory. That become the names.

This particular way of territorial marking marks the territories not onto the territories themselves but onto one's own memories as he associate certain sounds he makes with his own territories.

In effect, human always carries his own territories with him, albeit the virtual form in his memories.

Phil Stone used the Key of Everything concept when he explained the accumulation of names by the time when everything was given names, when everything was marked was when the built up of names forms a virtual world. This virtual world is the foundation of consciousness.

That was Reason Ver. 1.0

Reason Ver. 2.0 started when human naming himself, bringing himself into his own virtual world. This is what is called the Self-Consciousness.

What previously just everything known forming the world, by inserting self into the world allows what was previously a static world becoming a dynamic one because when men inserting himself into his virtual world (territories) he also started to makes his virtual self to behave in his virtual world as if in the real world (and easier since virtual world is just imagination world built on his memories).

Men started naming his action and the object of his action.

Subject, Predicates, Object. The embryo of language.

Reason 2.0 was when humanity's static virtual world turned into a simulation world by the merit of the insertation of self into this virtual world.

Reason 3.0 occured when men synchronise the names on his virtual world with other people, forming collective consciousness - or in the mechanism of reasons' theory as collective territory or collective simulation world.

Phil Stone also call it as the cloud computing of consciousness.

Cloud computing of consciousness allows what was previously a singular simulation world into the blending of all simulation worlds, so humanity benefits from the collective simulations occured there.

Simulated Self suffered from collective simulation here, while in Reason 2.0 simulated self comply completely with what he knows, cloud computing gives big data of simulations of every self connected and the disparity caused by collective simulation was the reason why simulated self fractured into Id, Ego and Superego.

Ego was the simulated self that complied to the collective simulations.

Id was the instinctual desires, the unsimulated self that doesn't make it into ego, the primal drive that haven't been incorporated into simulated self.

Superego was the set of instructions compiled by the cloud computing that are not completely integrated into ego or clashed with id. It's something you have to do that you don't understand why you have to do it, so it can't be integrated into your own actions.

Why it's reason ver 1,2,3 was because it was thought that beast (including human) has physical form as hardware and basic instinct as software (operating system) that govern them.

Reason in humanity is similar to a dedicated program that override the operating system (basic instinct) in operating the hardware (human body).

Reason Ver 1.0 started as database that records all the things humans interacts with.

Reason Ver 2.0 makes simulations on the interactivity between humans and the things on the records.

Records Ver. 3.0 connects the simulations into cloud computing of all simulations and give the feedback to own simulation to make better simulations, but there were discrepancy between theory (simulations from cloud computing) and practice (what you actually do in the real world after simulations), so the simulated self segregated to allows all.
