Living Systems
Living systems are open self organizing living beings that interact with the environment. These systems are maintained by flows of information, matter, and energy. Due to this definition, all human beings must be defined as a living system, for we rely on our outside world for all the essentials of being alive. Our internal environment's homeostasis requires the functioning of billions of probiotic organisms, just as their live's require our internal combustion and metabolic processes. If one were to remove themselves from the natural world completely than all life would quickly vanish in that subject.
Disney Taps Mind Control
Our discussion tonight about disney's research into brainwave reading technology is a frightening topic for me. Although all technological advances come with some conspiratorial fear, Disney as a corporation I find especially frightening. They are one of the six corporations that own every large media network along with Time Warner, Viacom, Rupert Murdoch's News Group, CBS, and NBC. The idea of these companies being able to read brainwaves and market to individuals directly seems incredibly invasive and disturbing.
Oh wow, I didn't know that Disney was that massively powerful. That is very disturbing indeed
