Hamlet,Vinge, Kurzweil and the singularity
The creativity we see forming is the result of a force emanating from the singularity [ Were all things are known and formed ]
This is the universal duality that are separated by the event horizon, the information that exist beyond the event horizon can not be known outside of it.
This duality is what keeps the universe perpetually moving in this creative circular motion around the eternal..
So I walk on the uplands unbound ,
And know that there is hope
For that which Thou didst mold out of dust
To have consort with things eternal.
--- The dead sea scolls
Information is composed of order; this order collapses around a preexisting possibility of order.
As Pythagoras said “eternal true forms” these eternal true forms exist as inherent inevitabilities…. A singularity……..A basin of attraction.
The driving force of life are dualities, up down, right left, positive negative, past and future.
These dualities create currents between one another to create movement. All these
dualities can be traced to one source, a singularity. A finality
Cognition, is a exponential flow of information within a biological system around the dual singularities of birth and death, in the context of human awareness this can be thought of as existential angst.
The main driving force’s in one's life is between the known and the unknown. The archetypal current of all human uncertainty is between life and death.
Hamlet ; , act III, William Shakespeare
"But that the dread of something after death, the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns, puzzles the will, and makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all, and thus the native hue of resolution is sicklied over with a pale cast of thought, and enterprises of great pitch and moment with this regard their currents tury awry and lose the name of action."
When Shakespeare writes “ the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns ” he is referring to the event horizon that surrounds the singularity of death, an unknown that cannot be known without a prior irreversible acquiescence. This is what makes Hamlet such a classical story.
Hamlet was driven by the need to resolve his fathers death. The pain he experienced in his “to be are not to be” speech is the embodiment of this existential angst generated between the uncertainty of the past and future. The known and unknown.
This tension is the crux of the play, and embodies this pull of the singularity. This ever present tension he was feeling between resolving past events with the future.
“Something's rotten in the state of Denmark” The same force that was moving creating emotional tension in Hamlet, keeps the ones watching the play pressed into their seats to see the final outcome.....The singularity.....the end.

My own singularity model is more close to René Thom’s Catastrophe Theory, and Stuart Kauffman’s autocatalytic sets. However my model is even more radical.
I am proposing that complex life formed as separate but adjacent quantum fields collapsed together, or more precisely spiraled together forming a singularity.
This singularity representing a microcosm of the environment as a whole resulting in cognition. These points becoming the well spring of life during the Cambrian explosion.
These original archetypal life forms are silicon [micro-quartz crystals] based at the extracellular level and carbon based at the intracellular level.
This model pin points what is missing in our current evolutionary models, the hard drive, Where there is a ram there must also be a rom.
This Gaia egg or{ vesica attractor }. Represents natural self-organizing attractor models, as follows; point attractor-cycle attractor-torus attractor-vesica attractor.
This new evidence also shows we did not invent the first silicon based hard drive, nature did. Our current silicon based driven singularity will connect the collective consciousness of mankind into a dynamic cohesive whole. This next step being the same process repeating itself on the next cyclical level.
