[FRIAM] falsifying the lost opportunity updating mechanism for free will

[∄ uǝlƃ]

I think I can see that. The trick is that in this sort of mixing, the map between the underlying dynamics and the phenomenon (tendrils) is too thin. In order to control that mixing (that the mechanism I'm proposing [†] requires), the composer would need access to every tiny-fast interaction. I suppose one could argue that a system could be designed so that large-scale interference would be reasonable, e.g. sliding some sort of disc in front of a tendril or something. I think for LOUMFFW to generate anything that might look like "free will" would require a thicker composition, some fast-tiny processes, some slow-fat processes, and the ability to pick and choose how to update that composite.

But we also have the iteration problem. LOUMFFW *might* generate the interesting phenomenon through iteration, the 2nd time around, the 3rd time around, etc. So, it's unclear to me how to fit Rayleigh-Taylor in.


[†] I suppose I'll call it LOUMFFW ... pronounced loomfwah!
