Interconnection is many things, and manifests through many different lenses.
- A dynamic, evolving universe
- A connected universe
- Nothing exists in isolation
- The unity of opposites
- The universe is in a constant state of change
- Objective reality exists and is knowable
- Equalibrium punctuated by rapid change
- Emergence from complexity
- Broad mechanics that engage differently at different scales
- Scale emerging from functional emergence
- Order emerging from chaos
- An image of what objective truth is can be discerned by the accumulation of varied perspectives, which can serve as "slices" of objective reality
- Structure emerges when signal is discerned from noise
- Nonlinearity can cause explosions in complexity
- When a system is far from equalibrium, small islands of coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to life the entire system to a higher order
- When a rock strikes water and produces ripples, we are neither the rock nor the water, but the ripples themselves
- "We Stand on the Shoulders of Giants”
