Gobernando mundos dinámicos distribuidos.

OK, llegó el fin del estado nación, somos todos ciudadanos del mundo, somos todos libres y todos no hacemos lo que se espera que no hagamos y en caso de que esto falle esta la solución clásica: represión, violencia por parte del poder contra el organismo que "falló".

¿Como se consigue ese orden "espontaneo"?, ¿como funciona "la mano invisible" del mercado de los actos individuales y grupales?.

En este punto quien lee puede esperar que yo explique como funciona esto. Imposible. No estoy capacitado para hacerlo. Pero tengo algo mas interesante que decir: existe un desarrollo matematico avanzado que permite modelar el planeta como una computadora (olvidarse de teclados y monitores lo que debe entenderse por computadora es una entidad que opera segun un conjunto de operaciones definidas) distribuida (fisicamente) y, mas interesante o siniestro aun, el modelo incluye un programa centralizado que controla el resto del mundo. No se trata de un modelo top-down donde un nodo jerarquico controla el organismo distribuido, no, no es asi, ese es el paradigma stalinista de fracaso garantizado; esto es un bicho de una naturaleza muy diferente.

El modelo se llama WAVE-WP donde WP va por World Processing (procesamiento de mundo) y WAVE por onda, una traduccion que respeta la idea es "Onda procesadora de mundo" y su autor lo explica con un lenguaje metaforico pero accesible en el prologo ver aqui, incluye índice del libro

Traduccion libre (abajo el original).
Del prólogo del libro GOBIERNO DE MUNDOS DINAMICOS DISTRIBUIDOS.

"... -realmente se trata de un nuevo modelo- (o procesador de mundo) puede tratar al mundo entero (humanos incluidos) como una maquina universal de procesamiento paralelo espacial que puede ser controlada por un programa localizado. Sin embargo este no es un enfoque centralizado donde se supone un mundo controlado desde alguna unidad central por dar un ejemplo (meramente simbolico) las Naciones Unidas.

Lo que WAVE-WP ofrece no tiene parangón en la experiencia de la humanidad. Puede ser comparado a una esencia global, o "alma", que se auto propaga cubriendo el mundo todo en la forma de una luz altamente inteligente, una niebla, aroma y, si preferis una comparacion mala, como si fuera un virus o radiación. Esta esencia se difunde completamente y es de naturaleza paralela y durante su difusion puede modificar completamente al mundo o armar un mundo a partir de la nada. Muchas de esas "almas" que emergen en puntos arbitrarios del mundo distribuido, pueden evolucionar de manera concurrente o competitiva en el cuerpo del mundo traslapandose en el tiempo y en el espacio.

La tecnologia descripta en este libro nos permite expresar la esencia del sistema global en el nivel semantico mal alto posible y automaticamente generar primero y luego aprovechar esta niebla o aroma (o virus) inteligente a la vez que lo hacemos extremadamente útil, orientado a una meta y controlable interna y externamente.

Esto puede mejorar el mundo drásticamente y hacerlo un lugar mucho mejor para cada uno, en particular para las futuras generaciones (esta es la razón por la cual dedico este libro a mi nieto)

El libro ofrece un gran poder, que puede caer en buenas o en malas manos. La fuerza de la ideologia y la tecnologia, en opinion de este autor, puede exceder en mucho la potencia de la energía nuclear si extrapolamos esta al campo de la información. Mediante su capacidad de auto difusion y su potencia de penetración, WAVE-WP puede cubrir y mejorar el mundo de manera amable a la vez que orientar su desarrollo o evolución de una manera positiva que se pueda necesitar, pero a la vez puede agarrar y destruir partes arbitrarias del muno o incluso el mundo todo.

Esta es la razon para continuar manteniendo en secreto partes claves de la implementación completa (a pesar de un numero de ensayos parciales en diferentes paises e inclusive una version de dominio público publicada) puede ser la estrategia correcta, con la sincera esperanza de que, en un mundo mejor, eventualmente surgirán las condiciones para publicar la version completa y su implementación."

Original del prologo de RULING DISTRIBUTED DYNAMIC WORLDS

"The extended model—actually a new one—WAVE-WP (or world processing) may treat the whole world (humans included) as a highly parallel and universal spatial machine that can be driven by a single spatial program. This is not a centralized approach, however, where the world is supposed to be coordinated from some central unit, say, a (symbolic) United Nations headquarters.

WhatWAVE-WP offers has no match to the existing human experience so far. It may be compared to global essence, or “soul,” self-spreading and covering the whole world in the form of highly intelligent light, smog, smell, and if you want bad comparisons radiation or a virus! This essence is fully distributed and parallel in nature and during the spread can modify the whole world or even create it from scratch. Many such spatial “souls,” starting from arbitrary points of the distributed world, can evolve concurrently or competitively on the world’s body, overlapping in time and space.

The technology described in this book allows us to express this global system essence on a topmost semantic level, automatically resulting in first generating and then harnessing this intelligent and ubiquitous smog or smell (or virus), while making it extremely useful, goal-oriented, and both internally and externally controllable.

This can drastically improve the whole world and make it much better for everybody, the future generations particularly (that is why this book is dedicated to my grandson).

The book does offer a great power, which may happen to fall into both good and bad hands. The strength of the ideology and technology, in the author’s opinion, may well exceed the power of nuclear energy if to extrapolate the latter onto the information field. By its self-spreading and penetrative power, WAVE-WP can gently cover and improve the world while orienting its evolution in a needed positive way, but it may also grasp and destroy the world’s arbitrary parts or even the whole.

That is why continuing to keep hidden the key secrets of the full implementation (despite a number of trial, partial, realizations in different countries, with even a public domain version released) may be a right strategy, in the sincere hope that the conditions will eventually arise in the better world for the full revelation and implementation."

Algo que me da a pensar este libro es: Si te ha seducido el paradigma de redes OJO: podes estar trabajando para algo que no esta a tu nivel semantico, podes ser un reproductor de "aromas" o esencias diseñados para algo de lo cual no tenes idea. Te podes estar cavando para vos y para todos los de tu nación.
