Asserting Our Newest Wealth

                                                          
                         I am going to attempt to demonstrate that information is the only real form of viable currency today. The irony of this statement is that many of us live in graduate school ghettoes.

                        Newest Core Concept: We are going to construct, "INFLUENCE MATRICES."

                        In tracking the disseminating of new information we observe lines and vectors of influence. This simple phenomena can be observed as a transformative medium of truth. Let's demonstrate:

                        How many of you had ever heard of an Opinion Bias before reading my blog? Even fewer of you had ever considered that the opinion bias is a shifting system dynamic. When we communicate, we generate and disseminate information. When we listen and learn new things, our opinions grow and change. I used to the think the Catholic church was never going to change. I'm so glad I'm wrong. Interestingly enough, even my research told me I would be proven wrong. (Even many rabid fundamentalist Catholics don't want their church to grow and adapt.)

                        When information is generated and disseminated into groups and society, even this sways peoples opinions. And not always in a uniform fashion. We often observe upheavals and discontinuities in the mass proliferation of a "TRUTH." We started here with something relatively harmless like psychic reading, so we can observe and model for the transformation of biased truth. Invariably, we have observed several of the "Shock Values," with the evolution of perceived truth, Pro and Con. (SHOCK VALUES is a term borrowed from differential calculus to describe the abrupt acceleration of a rate of change as it jumps out of a linear continuity into a non linear point set. This creates the computational, "Shock Values," and they are often occur at unexpected and unpredictable points.) We don't always anticipate abrupt accelerating rates of changing change. It is therefore not necessary for me to try to persuade people. I find it much easier, and more fun, to merely inspire and entertain. Hence the itinerary of being the consummate entertainment medium. And this is how it's done. (Is this shocking enough for you?)

                       As our society has encountered and assimilated new transcultural influences, we have come to adapt to ever accelerating rapid rates of change. Advances in diet, language, politics and even faith are transforming our shared cultures as we speak. People are going to have to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century. But that is neither your job or mine. Let the truth speak for itself. It's our newest wealth.
