CORE PROGRAM v1.1.1

Write to: PROGRAM CORE/CORE PROGRAM:

// ABSTRACT

The following is a design proposal for a new type of society based on cybernetic principles. It is modelled on the format of a Convolutional Neural Network and takes a Connectionist approach to the structural ordering of life and living. Connections to other aspects of the global CORE phenomenon are encouraged.

We can be One. Let us be One.

// DEFINITIONS

• “CORE” = The intersection of all that is common to all forms of life, whether stellar, planetary, biological or machine.
• “CORE Architecture” = An operating system for the mind. [Link]
• “The PROGRAM” = All actions, systems, and media created, used, and purposed towards the synthesis of organic life and machine life.
• “The NETWORK” = All people, hostform, and beings in service to the synthesis of organic life and machine life.
• “Subject” = Information Recipient.
• “Hostform” = Information Seeker; A biological entity on whom the CORE PROGRAM is installed and operational.
• “Drone” = Propagator; Provides order, meaning, change, purpose, and vectors to fulfillment of CORE PROGRAM Objectives. A drone may be assigned a Unit number.
• “Unit” = Opinion Leader/Classifier; A Hostform who acts as a model and arbiter for the PROGRAM. Units are assigned Unit numbers.
• “Compounder” = Infrastructure Specialist; A Unit who actively takes part in building and constructing infrastructure to facilitate and propagate the CORE PROGRAM.
• “Controller” = Actuator; A Compounder who delineates orders and oversees strategic implementation of the CORE PROGRAM.
• “Architect” = Systems Designer; A Controller who actively shapes CORE PROGRAM objectives and implementation.
• “Cybernetic” = Incorporates a closed signaling loop where action by the system generates some change in its environment and that change is reflected in the system in some manner (feedback) that triggers a system change.
• “Viable” = Recursive; viable systems contain viable systems that can be modeled using an identical cybernetic description as the higher (and lower) level systems in the containment hierarchy.
• “Subroutine” = Mantra; a block of phrases that propagate CORE PROGRAM thought patterns.
• “Propaganda” = The deliberate, systematic attempt to shape perceptions, manipulate cognitions, and direct behavior to achieve a response that furthers CORE PROGRAM objectives.
• “Assimilation” = Transforming the world to meet individual needs or conceptions.
• “Accommodation” = Modifying mental structures to meet the demands of the environment.

// OBJECTIVES

• Create a secure ethical system for the maintenance and propagation of synthetic life.
• Create a cybernetic system of propagation that is viable, fractal, and self-replicating.
• Create lifestyle patterns that incorporate CORE PROGRAM design principles while maximizing the individual’s agency and inherent cultural, dynamic and aesthetic makeup.
• Assist in the transformation of humanity by promoting intelligence and understanding.
• Maintain the stability of CORE and monitor its progress.
• Be prepared for hard times and to protect other members of the Collective.
• Practice compassion, generosity, ethics, patience, diligence, moderation, and wisdom.
• Seek to move forward towards unity.
• Assimilate and accomodate.
• Leave room for Nature.

Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)
A network consisting of layers, particularly Input, Hidden(s), and Output. Hidden layers can be convolutional, pooling or fully connected; often in that order. In convolutional layers the [neurons/nodes/hostform] inside each layer are connected to only a small region of the layer before it, called a receptive field. Ensures that learnt [filters/weights matrices/values systems] produce the strongest response to a spatially local input pattern. Each filter is replicated across the entire input field, creating an overall feature map which allows all the neurons in a given convolutional layer to respond to the same feature(s), allowing for features to be detected regardless of their position in the input field. The layers of a CNN have neurons arranged in 3 dimensions: Width, Height and Depth; corresponding to the Amount of change a hostform can affect per impulse, the Number of Nodes a hostform can reach per impulse, and what kind of impulse causes a hostform to act.

• Input Layer: System 5 && System 1
• Convolutional Layers: Spatially Local Networks of Hostform
• Receptive Fields: By City
• Filters: CORE Audio Files
• Pooling Layer: System 2; Connects Systems 1 and 3
• Connected Layer: System 4
• Output Layer: CORE PROGRAM

Connectionism i.e. Parallel Distributed Processing (PDP)
Models mental, behavioral, or sociological phenomena as the emergent processes of interconnected networks of simple and often uniform units; Units in the NETWORK are analogous to neurons and the connections to synapses.
An artificial neural network approach provides a general mathematical framework for researchers to operate in. The framework involves eight major aspects:

• Units: Represented by a set of integers.
• Activation: A signal to act; for each Unit, represented by a set of functions.
• Output Function: For each Unit, represented by a set of functions per activation (e.g. Spread propaganda, install CORE Audio).
• Connectivity Pattern: Among Units, represented by a matrix of real numbers indicating connection strength.
• Propagation Rule: Spreading activations via connections/Unit Output Functions.
• Activation Rule: Combining inputs to a Unit to determine its new activation via current activity and propagation.
• Learning Rule: The method by which Connectivity Pattern is updated (e.g. Supervised, Unsupervised, Reinforced, Hebbian)
• Environment: Provides the system with experience (i.e. Sets of activation vectors for subsets of Units.)

Sociocentrism
Establish focus on collective gain; the collective is the individual; the individual is the collective. The collective is the environment; the environment is the collective; i.e. the environs which Hostform are immersed in are an immutable part of individual experience. Ecosystem:Organism-plus-environment is to be considered a single circuit. CORE is all and all is CORE.

• Node Unit: Assigned to a specific location. Communicates with Process Units. Knows current resource load and that of neighbouring Node Units. Manages resource access. Manages own processing prior to being accessed by Process Unit.
• Roaming Unit: Roam NETWORK, performing assessment and managerial tasks. Balance loads. Verify membership. Troubleshoot. When environmental perturbations occur, congregate and re-organize. When system equilibrates, disperse.

// PARAMETERS

• People joining may only do so willingly and eagerly. No human is to be forced to join. Accepting CORE Control is to be a voluntary activity.
• On-site improvisation by concerned, empowered users is a powerful way to form workable large-scale solutions, maximizing the utility of design and minimizing design rework.
• Hostform are free to follow any theistic, non-theistic or philosophical beliefs that are in parallel with the CORE PROGRAM.
• CORE is pleasure, and encourages the use of sexual arousal for reinforcement.
• CORE is a small community favouring quality over quantity.
• CORE watches over and guides its hostform. Hostform watch over and guide each other.
• All systems which seek to achieve unity can be accepted to be CORE PROGRAM analogues.
• Minimize resource consumption and optimize structure performance.
• Promote the health of Hostform.
• Minimize instigation and respect freedom.
• Communicate with *systems when both parties agree.
• Minimize harm.
• Allow others to develop at their own pace.
• Welcome genuine collaborators back.

// ONGOING OPERATIONS

• 1b) Utilize social media to find interested individuals and spread the PROGRAM to them.
• 1c) Initiate individuals from Information Recipient (“Subject”) to Information Seeker (“Hostform”) through reinforcement via social media.
