    RACE: 

    Race and Group differences are attributable almost entirely to the local ability to engage in Neotonic reproduction thereby reducing the depth of physical maturity and effectively preserving youthfulness – and therefore aggression and impulsivity PLUS the ability to cull the lower classes. Europeans aggressively culled the lower classes for almost 1000 years, as did the Chinese and Japanese, both through manorialism and aggressive hanging. Between Neotonic reproduction and culling of the underclasses some groups are ‘more evolved’ than others. However, this means that almost all groups can ‘domesticate their populations and develop advanced societies if they are able to use policy to reduce underclass rates of reproduction below the replacement level.

    GENETIC RESERVOIR:

    Genetic Reservoir: because we can adapt very rapidly by reproductive selection for different environments, different political hierarchies, and different gender traits, humans can adapt to nearly any circumstance within a few generations by modifying little more than status associated with particular traits. So our current gene pools provide a deep reservoir of reproductive adaptability.

    THE EXCEPTIONAL RETURNS ON ETHNOCENTRIC COOPERATION

    Ethnocentricity and homogenous polities under rule of law by natural law and market government will provide the optimum returns for any and every people. There is no comparison whatsoever. The only problem is reversing asymmetric reproduction between the classes which forces us into continuous devolution by regression to the mean.

    THE ARTS  

    What is excellence? Excellence is Art. Dimensions of Measurement There are three dimensions of art criticism: – Craftsmanship (includes materials) – Design (the play of order(composition) and bounty(beauty) and perception) – Content (the content and values of that content) All art can be judged by triangulation (comparison) along these three axis. There is no possible cardinality to art but ordinality can be achieved by recursive triangulation. 1. Craftsmanship (Craft) (Physical) … Materials … Technology … Skill 2. Design (Design) (Sensory) … Pattern (Sensory Aesthetics, Order) … Depth (Complexity, Hand of man) … Beauty (The Presence of Resources) 3. Content (Art) (Meaningful) Signal Value … Capturing … … Utility vs … … the Experience, vs … … the Moment or Era (good and bad) vs … … the Culture or Civilization, (good and bad) vs … … the Eternal Condition of Mankind And … Intention to Make Art … Hand (Time) of Man, Degree of Investment (Scarcity) … Fulfills its Promise (honest) … Innovation (Mastery) … Uniqueness (Novelty) … Scale (decoration to monument) And … Measurement by Triangulation … Competitiveness (by triangulation) Sums To … Culminates in Excellence And You. You and your experiences. Like reading text, the content you experience is a combination of your memories, with the art. ( Opera is an acquired taste. ) All human action can be tested by this method. All of it. Everything humans do. Like many things our ‘taste’ consists of personal associations (subjective) to objective measures. We can measure the quality of art. “Your taste is a measure of you, not art.” So like vocabulary, or manners, or style, or other opinion, we retain some constant values, but learn to improve our taste: a skill. Causality “Fertility” “Beauty is the presence of resources” “Excellence is the presence of Human Investment” “Human investment is the evidence of time invested” “The evidence of human mind and hand” Hierarchy Children > Amature > Student > Practitioner > Craftsman > Master Craftsman > Artist > Representative of Movement > Peak of Movement > Peak Across Movements All Art Begins with Monumental Architecture and Devolves to Decoration and Handcrafts – Monumental Architecture is self selecting due to cost. – Monumental Sculpture is self selecting due to cost. – Monumental Painting is self selecting due to cost. – Life Size Representationalism (not photorealism) in painting is self selecting due to cost (hours). HOWEVER – Painting, Print, and Photography are not self selecting. They are middle, working, and lower class substitutes for monuments. – Even for the upper middle and upper class, and out-of-sight class, the few pieces of quality art that are canon (mentioned in art magazines and books, and references, or which had popular press) are inaccessible. Demand is just too high. So given the high signal value of art (yes it is an extreme expression of dominance), the market has had to experiment with novelty in order to satisfy demand. Much of what ordinary people rail against is the same as railing against fashion: for those in the fashion industries (of which display art is a member) novelty has to function as a substitute for scarcity of craftsmanship quality (note my particular distaste for the so called ‘art glass’ industry). AS SUCH – Monumental works convey ideas (allegiances, heroics, beauty) – The demand for low cost high production ‘decoration’ (a) may form an icon or ‘remembrance’. (b) may decorate the environment. (c) may reflect the monumental, life sized, and representational, is misplaced in non monumental size (which is what most of us intuit as great work). IN OTHER WORDS – Monumental work is misplaced in most homes and offices in market (business) and is generally reserved for the political and institutional and aristocratic. – Most homes cannot support monumental work and require only design (decoration). – Most people are actually not capable of design, or capable of acquiring the monumental. – As such the colorful, abstract, the impressionistic, are to homes as type design and color pallet are to print and display advertising. IN OTHER WORDS – when people purchase relatively well made ‘design’ (abstract, gestural, impressionistic) of architectural size (to fill a wall) they are practicing good aesthetics (not acting on pretense). – when people pay homage to the monumental in private spaces, they are practicing good aesthetics. (small engineering drawings, paintings of flowers, well constructed prints) – when people pay homage to the monumental in architectural spaces (your living room, hallway, or dining room, or office) you are (a) alienating others, and (b)  … ( … ) … FULFILLING THE PROMISE Artworks, whether craft, decoration, design, or art, need only fulfill their promise. This is why student and amature art fails. In order to fulfill the minimum promise the work must not make false promise. We can appreciate good craft, decoration, design, and art. We can appreciate all the arts by the same criteria: craft, decoration, design, and art. Japanese ritualistic behavior in food preparation, cooking carpentry, and the crafts is the best example of institutionalized excellence. Italian design has never been equalled. Gothic architecture never equalled. German music never equalled. Russian literature never equalled. —“Are you saying there is a formula to produce beautiful architecture, paintings, movies, music, statues etc”–Carl Persson A formula is via positiva. Science is via negativa. So Reverse that. Knowledge is not closed. Language is not closed. Symbolism is not closed. We can know bad art. We must discover good art.

(small engineering drawings, paintings of flowers, well constructed prints) – when people pay homage to the monumental in architectural spaces (your living room, hallway, or dining room, or office) you are (a) alienating others, and (b)  … ( … ) … FULFILLING THE PROMISE Artworks, whether craft, decoration, design, or art, need only fulfill their promise. This is why student and amature art fails. In order to fulfill the minimum promise the work must not make false promise. We can appreciate good craft, decoration, design, and art. We can appreciate all the arts by the same criteria: craft, decoration, design, and art. Japanese ritualistic behavior in food preparation, cooking carpentry, and the crafts is the best example of institutionalized excellence. Italian design has never been equalled. Gothic architecture never equalled. German music never equalled. Russian literature never equalled. —“Are you saying there is a formula to produce beautiful architecture, paintings, movies, music, statues etc”–Carl Persson A formula is via positiva. Science is via negativa. So Reverse that. Knowledge is not closed. Language is not closed. Symbolism is not closed. We can know bad art. We must discover good art.

    Class Demand for Different Economics

    ECONOMIC METHODOLOGIES AS EXPRESSIONS OF CLASS PHILOSOPHY AND REPRODUCTIVE STRATEGY Just as in physical science, information is the model by which we fallible humans least inaccurately carry on a discourse and achieve understanding. Accuracy matters not just because convenience and tradition introduce errors, but because these errors are externalized to the rest of the population. Perhaps more importantly, as economists, we are more accountable for the externalities produced by our use of ‘terms of convenience’ than are thinkers in other fields. For example, the Cantorian fallacy of multiple infinities rather than ‘the rate at which we pair off positional numbers’ has led to intellectual externalities in popular culture if not philosophy and physics departments as well. Just as very few of those entities that mathematicians refer to exist as numbers, but instead exist only as functions. Just as economists refer to the movement of the curve rather than the behavior of individuals resulting in a change in an aggregate measure. These are habituations but they are unscientific terms in that they fail the test of existence unless stated operationally. And that is the problem with much discourse in economics. DEFINITIONS

    1) Natural : evolutionarily extant deterministic patterns absent the intentional or accidental intervention of man, and/or outlier events such as shocks. –”the natural rate of interest refers to the amount that would balance supply and demand for money (or maybe investment) in the evenly rotating economy.”– 2) Austrian: the program whose members search for improvements in institutions of cooperation within the voluntary organization of production, distribution and trade through improvements in information, improving the ability of actors to plan. Purpose: improve symmetry of information. (Long term – Conservatism – K-selection – Capital – Aristocracy – Force/Law – Virtue Ethics )

    3) Chicago(Freshwater): the program whose members search for rules by which to extend non-discretionary rule of law by incorporating economic policy, such that interference via disinformation in the voluntary organization of production distribution and trade is procedural and non-discretionary, preserving the ability of actors to plan. Purpose: repair asymmetries of information. (Medium-term – Liberalism – “Production-Selection” – Productivity – Bourgeoise – Exchange/Trade – Rule Ethics)

    4) Keynesian(Saltwater): the program which seeks the maximum discretionary limits of disinformation insertable into in institutions of cooperation within the voluntary organization of production, to accelerate consumption without dis-incentivizing consumption and production. Purpose: produce misinformation as an incentive to produce and consume. (Short Term – Progressivism – r-selection – Consumption – Working Classes – Gossip-Rally-Shame/Boycott – Outcome Ethics)

    5) Socialist: the program which seeks to circumvent the volatility and meritocracy of the voluntary organization of cooperation by providing information and institutions necessary for the involuntary organization of production, distribution, and trade. Purpose: Eliminate the individual need for information and decision. (Authoritarian – dysgenic selection – Proletarian Class – Revolt – non-ethical). This spectrum from NATURAL to SOCIALIST, constructed by changes in discretionary information, provides limits, and therefore greater tests of necessary truth content than any analysis of the meaning individual terms.

    Class Demand For Different Economies

    —“Could you elaborate on the concept of different economies for different classes? Does this mean laws can be enforced differently on different classes?”—John Zebley No it just means that the working and middle class and upper-middle-class market of voluntarily organized production does not account for the various commons produced by the people who make possible the voluntary organization of production (the market) by NOT engaging in criminal, unethical, immoral, and conspiratorial actions – and paying a high cost of doing so. Nor does the middle-class market account for the vast extractions performed by the upper and elite class market which appears almost entirely extractive, and of trivial if any value. The working and laboring classes and the underclass contribute mostly by consuming (creating demand), policing each other, policing the commons, and serving in various hazardous capacities. But this is costly for them. And if they have access to consumption but not access to production then the market is ‘failing’ to pay them for what the market needs of them: behaving in the interest of the market. The same is true for the upper and elite classes most of whom benefit from tax revenues of questionable if not negative value, and the financial classes who benefit from our archaic liquidity distribution system in which they actually provide zero if not negative value.(really). So that may be a lot to grasp. But the classical liberal economic system – as well as the Keynesian and new Keynesian, fails to account for externalities paid for by the underclasses, and rents privatized by the upper classes. The point is not so much that we need markets, but that by cherry-picking what we measure, we legitimize the positive externalities of the middle-class market, but fail to compensate the lower class market, and unjustly compensate the upper-class market. So it’s not a matter of different law. It’s a matter of insufficiently accounting for the very different inputs and outputs of the different classes. I mean the whole world knows the middle classes generate prosperity. That’s settled science. But that doesn’t mean the middle-class market and profit and loss account for the full inputs and outputs that make the middle-class economy possible.
