How about a dialectic between two awarenesses: that of fulfilling a function, and that of inflecting upon the function an additional, but unnecessary, functionality. Imagine a plot follower (homologs: cam follower, voltage follower, cult follower, which focuses upon the agency of the actors with one lever, and upon the motive with another? Build out relational trees from each of these sources, and expand them until twenty interesting sentences can be constructed from their parts. --- Of those 20 ideas, abstract the central core of each and locate a mythical reference that is tropically homologous to it. --- Expand briefly on each of the mythical references. --- Using this general principle of the expansion of the poles of a dialectic, I would like to see some expansions. I will provide you with defined poles, and you will return the poles reasonably expanded, as before, and will describe the dimensionality of an outer frame which would hold the combined set of objects from the two expansions. Ok? --- identity element and inversion operation --- propaganda and research --- The form of localized energy, and the form of radiant energy. --- List all of the poles of all of the dialectics here, and note for each one how many times it has been referenced, so far. --- Would it be possible to obtain a rough an estimate of how many axes which apply specifically to form (rather than details of the case) will be found as more and more of such dialectics are examined? --- Extant and external --- Provide a prompt which will put you into the same interpretative state that you are in with regard to the pairs I have been presenting for this type of dialectical analysis. --- Slater determinants and permanents. --- stability and decoherence --- rights of the individual and rights of the society --- A tutelary deity and Allah. --- tutelary deity and personal savior --- immanence and transcendence --- relatable and knowable --- How many axes has we had in the outer frame, all together? --- Earlier we had arrived to an estimate of approximately how many such formal axes we would encounter, were we to keep adding dialects. Where do we stand with that estimate at this point? --- super ego and narcissism --- Can you foresee any logical objections to extending this type of analysis beyond two poles? --- Of the core axes so far identified from all of these dialectical analyses, can one identify vocal inflections which might be used during narration in order to indicate locations along them that occur with the text being narrated? --- How about the inverse operation of the categorization of such a relationship between vocal inflection and indication along these axes? Does the operation commute with its inverse? --- Is there a more normative manner in which I might have asked the same question? --- One pole is the social necessity of saying "unfortunately" in front of any bad news; the other pole is simply delivering the bad news. --- jobs done by women, and jobs done by men --- how well men's jobs are done by women versus how well women's jobs are done by men --- Would it be possible to locate approximations of points between the poles of these axes that would be related to the expectation value for certain competencies that would be involved for a given occupations? --- Perform such an analysis on ten representative occupations and deliver the scores. --- I am interested in scoring the cross-over occupations, those that cross the expectation, i.e. men doing "women's work" versus women doing "men's work". How well to the sexes do the work that is expected of the other? ---
