Lawsin contends that awareness exists because intuitive sensors possess an inherent dual capability: they can store and retrieve information independently of neurons or the brain. Meanwhile, associative consciousness emerges through a system of intuitive sensors, a network of logics that produces intelligence.
Beyond this concept of Associative Consciousness, Autognorics also introduces several novel ideas: (i) The Brein Theory: A Brain without The Brain, a redefinition of what it means to be alive, living, and possessing life. (ii) Intuitive Aneural Network: A network of sequential inscriptions that produces emotions, actions, thinking, challenging the brain-centric view. Sequential inscriptions giving rise to behavioral experiences. (iii) Generated Interim Emergence: A theory that claims everything exists because other things cause it to exist, otherwise, it exists and doesn't exist. (iv) Inscriptional Physics: Embedded inscriptions on everything, akin to natural equations or formulas. From this rich path of new knowledge, Autognorics births a remarkable achievement: a self-conscious machine, capable of creating its own kind.
Autognorics (ELFS) differs from Artificial Intelligence (AI) due to they are distinct fields, each with its unique focus and principles:
1. Autognorics is primarily concerned with creating engineered life forms, machines, or systems that exhibit life-like qualities. It aims to construct entities capable of seeing, smelling, tasting, hearing, speaking, feeling, thinking, breeding, and even dying. AI, on the other hand, focuses on developing algorithms and systems that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. AI encompasses a wide range of applications, from natural language processing to computer vision and robotics.
2. Autognorics challenges the notion that consciousness solely emanates from the brain. It asserts that biological sensors, independent of neurons, can store and retrieve information, indicating awareness and consciousness. AI does not inherently address consciousness. AI systems process data, learn patterns, and make decisions based on algorithms, but they lack true awareness or subjective experience.
3. Autognorics creates engineered life forms, often referred to as the 鈥淪ilver Species.鈥� These entities blur the boundaries between living organisms and machines. AI constructs neural networks, deep learning models, expert systems, and other algorithmic approaches. AI systems do not possess inherent life-like qualities.
4. Autognorics aims to produce self-conscious machines capable of reproducing their own kind. AI is applied in diverse domains, such as natural language understanding, image recognition, autonomous vehicles, recommendation systems, and medical diagnostics.
5. Autognorics explores the intersection of life and technology, while AI focuses on creating intelligent systems for specific tasks. Both fields contribute to our understanding of what it means to be living and intelligent in different ways .
In this book, Joey Lawsin, the formulator behind the Single Theory of Everything and Inscription by Design, unveils the secrets and inner workings of being alive, living, with life, and consciousness uncovered through the eyes of a living machine.]]>206Joey Lawsin1312384549Joey0to-read0.0

The Biotronics Project199007927 Fast forward 30 years after, Biotronics evolved into a variety of species with their own individual characteristics that subsequently emerged from being alive, living, and with life. Through the creation of these "in vivo machinas", old concepts were revisited, replaced, and redefined based on the new findings uncovered in this project. Even a new science called Autognorics that deals with creating engineered life forms was formed. Through this new study, the classical meaning of alive, living, and life were redefined. The natures of consciousness, awareness, and self-realization were also reclassified. Even the old criteria of life were replaced with the new non-biological evolutionary orders of life. New concepts were also discovered such as Inscription by Design, Generated Intuitive Emergence, Embedded Inscription, Intuitive Objects, The Aneural Brein Theory, Codexation Dilemma, and the Single Theory of Everything revealing through the eyes of these machines.
The Law of Seven Inscriptions, uncovered by Joey Lawsin in his work Autognorics, define life, not through biological means but through chemical and inscriptional criteria. It establishes clear parameters for what it means to be alive, living, and with life.
Thus, to be alive, an entity must self-consume energy, a fundamental necessity for existence. To be aware, one is equipped with sensors, enabling interaction with the environment. To be conscious, one has the ability to match or codify things. To be intuitive, one is involved in making choices while Inlearning is the process of acquiring and utilizing information. To be living, an entity must reproduce and thrive. Finally, to have life, an entity recognizes itself and its own existence.]]>205Joey Lawsin9781387947Joey0to-read0.0

<![CDATA[The Making Of A Conscious Machine]]>60824017 Joey Lawsin discovered that there are seven essential elements for a bioform to emerge as Self, six to be living, five to be inlearned, four to be intuitive, three to be conscious, two to be aware, and one to be alive. He named these new non-biological criteria of life the Law of Seven Inscriptions.
In his book, Lawsin asserts that when a subject self-consumes energy, the subject is Alive. When it is equipped with sensors and these detectors respond to stimuli, it is Aware. When it can match objects, the subject is Conscious. When it chooses this or that the subject is Intuitive or Logical. When it acquires pieces of information, it is Informed. When it processes information, it is Living. And when it emerges as its Self, the object is alive, living, and with life.
An entity or system that is collectively alive, living, and with life is called Bioform. While, an entity or system that is alive and living but without life (self-realization) is named as Abioform. Humans and gnorics are examples of bioforms. Plants, animals, and biotronics are some examples of abioforms.
Lawsin also showcases how he ends up with the following conclusions by integrating the principles behind a new school of thought he called Autognorics.
Autognorics was first formulated in 1988 under the umbrella "The Biotronics Project. Subsequently, Biotronics became part of a larger creation design known as Autognorics. It was developed to shape the framework of artificial intelligence and machine learning through The Brein Theory, technically known as Intuitive Aneural Network (IAN).
Autognorics is the science of creating engineered life forms, things, machines, or systems. It deals with binary inherent memory system, intuitive aneural networks, intuitive systems, intuitive machines, embedded inscriptions, intuitive objects, generated emergence, breins, gnomi, gnos, interims, and inscription by design. Intuitive machines (I.M.) also called Gnorics or E.L.F.S. are the highlights of the book. They are synthetic engineered life forms that are alive, living, and with life.
Lawsin posted most of his mechanical living thinking creations in YouTube .]]>Joey Lawsin145830227XJoey5 His theory on Inscription by Design, sometimes called Instruction by Design or Information by Design and abbreviated as I.D., claims that every object is a piece of information that always comes with various embedded instructions depending on how it is used. The theory was extrapolated from an investigative simulation known as the CAT Algorithm, an experiment designed to examine 3 things: (1) How bits of information eventually bond together and transform into a series of instructions like the algorithm on a computer program; (2) How is the algorithm embedded, stored, written and retrieved; and (2) What triggers the algorithm to switch on or off ?
Lawsin argues that if Nature is the mother of information and every piece of her creation is a piece of information, then it follows that Nature is a storage of information similar to the human brain. This means as Lawsin reiterated that her creations are like neurons and Mother Nature is like the brain. Due to this idea, it leads him to the conclusion that intelligence or consciousness does not need essentially to emanate from a neural brain. He named this type of memory storage as Aneural or " a brain without the brain".
The mere fact that objects(materials), Information, and Instructions are all one and the same and work collectively together as a system, they mutually process and transcribe into sets of instructions and behaviors. When energize, the instructions generate behaviors, an animation effect. This effect creates the illusion of life, of being alive, of being a human being.
Autognorics is the science involved in the study of engineered life-forms called ELFS or Gnorics. It is a much higher discipline among artificial intelligence, machine learning, and robotics. It deals with embedded inscriptions, intuitive objects, aneural(brainless) memory systems, and generated emergence.
The word Autognorics is derived from the Greek words: Auto which means self and Gnorics which means knowledge. Literally, it means " a self-knowledge living machine". The process of building these systems of engineered life forms is called Autognorization or SELFS.
Autognorics evolved from the scientific research developed by Joey Lawsin in 1988 known as the Biotronics Project. It is a project that aims to create machines that are alive, living, and with life. These Intuitive Machines (IM) are objects that act and look like humans, animals, plants, and cells. They are programmed to walk, see, talk, think, hear, taste, feel, fly, or swim. They die too.
Autognorics is divided into five branches, namely:
Homotronics - physical body of the machine Neurotronics - aneural and neural memory of the machine Exyzforms - design by inscription Codexation - embedded instructions Generated Emergence- the single theory of everything
Homodruinos, Biotronics, Abiozoics, and Zoikrons are examples of ELFS. Homodruinos are intuitive machines with an aneural brain of an Arduino microcontroller. Biotronics are electronic machines equipped with organic wise sensors. Abiozoics are non-living to living machines or systems. Zoikrons are living machines with consciousness, awareness, aliveness, intuitiveness, selfness, and lifeness. In other words, Zoikrons are the life-forms of machines equivalent to living things on earth and beyond.]]>5.00

review: Creation by Law, otherwise known as Viegenesis, provides an astonishing revelation about how the universe was created, not by God nor by Evolution, but by a Process. This book introduces new concepts on how the process, The Law, governs the creation and evolution of everything. It authoritatively examines how the universe was created and why God was never been a part of creation. It also presents the exponential transformation of species and propagation of life from non-living to living through the dualpairing of space and shape (the building blocks of life) based on the seven Laws of the Creation Process. The Law of Dualpairing, one of the requirements of Creation, takes our minds to examine why a two of something must exist in order to produce new groups or families of new species. Without the "Twoness", the dualpairing of Vitalic Materials and Systemic Instructions, the course of the creation process will collapse. Creation will be dead. Life stops.
]]>
<![CDATA[Evolution of Creation: A Journal of a Creative Mind]]>8204395 Evolution of Creation presents new inspiring unconventional concepts that supply your thoughts with fresh ideas on the origin of our existence. It essentially consists of two seminal parts. The first part is the Law of Viegenesis. It demonstrates that all things evolved from the partnership of nothing and something. This dualpairing of abstracts and physicals are the two sides of the same coin where the duality of one is the unity of two. The second part is the Law of Information Codexation. It interprets creation based on "systemic instructions" and "vitalic materials" - the building blocks of everything.
This masterwork will change everything you believe.]]>196Joey Lawsin1600473938Joey5creation, religion5.002010

<![CDATA[Animals in Translation: Using the Mysteries of Autism to Decode Animal Behavior (A Harvest Book)]]>7366 Temple Grandin draws upon a long, distinguished career as an animal scientist and her own experiences with autism to deliver an extraordinary message about how animals act, think, and feel. She has a perspective like that of no other expert in the field, which allows her to offer unparalleled observations and groundbreaking ideas.
People with autism can often think the way animals think, putting them in the perfect position to translate "animal talk." Grandin is a faithful guide into their world, exploring animal pain, fear, aggression, love, friendship, communication, learning, and, yes, even animal genius. The sweep of Animals in Translation is immense and will forever change the way we think about animals.
*includes a Behavior and Training Troubleshooting Guide 听 Among its provocative ideas, the book:
~argues that language is not a requirement for consciousness--and that animals do have consciousness.
~applies the autism theory of "hyper-specificity" to animals, showing that animals and autistic people are so sensitive to detail that they "can't see the forest for the trees"--a talent as well as a "deficit".
~explores the "interpreter" in the normal human brain that filters out detail, leaving people blind to much of the reality that surrounds them--a reality animals and autistic people see, sometimes all too clearly.
~explains how animals have "superhuman" skills: animals have animal genius.
~compares animals to autistic savants, declaring that animals may in fact be autistic savants, with special forms of genius that normal people do not possess and sometimes cannot even see.
~examines how humans and animals use their emotions to think, to decide, and even to predict the future.
~reveals the remarkable abilities of handicapped people and animals听.
~maintains that the single worst thing you can do to an animal is to make it feel afraid.]]>358Temple Grandin0156031442Joey0to-read4.142004

review: Originemology, or the "study of the origin of origins", is a pioneering discipline that investigates generally the original root of information. Where did information come from? Its primary scientific objective is to find out how did the first humans obtain information? Where did they get the information? Who gave them the information? Is the source of information a who or a what? This new school of thought also examines the creation and evolution of everything and everyone.

The Worldly Philosophers82120The bestselling classic that examines the history of economic thought from Adam Smith to Karl Marx鈥斺€渁ll the economic lore most general readers conceivably could want to know, served up with a flourish鈥� (The New York Times).
The Worldly Philosophers not only enables us to see more deeply into our history but helps us better understand our own times. In this seventh edition, Robert L. Heilbroner provides a new theme that connects thinkers as diverse as Adam Smith and Karl Marx. The theme is the common focus of their highly varied ideas鈥攏amely, the search to understand how a capitalist society works. It is a focus never more needed than in this age of confusing economic headlines.
In a bold new concluding chapter entitled 鈥淭he End of the Worldly Philosophy?鈥� Heilbroner reminds us that the word 鈥渆nd鈥� refers to both the purpose and limits of economics. This chapter conveys a concern that today鈥檚 increasingly 鈥渟cientific鈥� economics may overlook fundamental social and political issues that are central to economics. Thus, unlike its predecessors, this new edition provides not just an indispensable illumination of our past but a call to action for our future.]]>368Robert L.

When the Taliban took control of the Swat Valley in Pakistan, one girl spoke out. Malala Yousafzai refused to be silenced and fought for her right to an education.
On Tuesday, October 9, 2012, when she was fifteen, she almost paid the ultimate price. She was shot in the head at point-blank range while riding the bus home from school, and few expected her to survive.
Instead, Malala's miraculous recovery has taken her on an extraordinary journey from a remote valley in northern Pakistan to the halls of the United Nations in New York. At sixteen, she has become a global symbol of peaceful protest and the youngest-ever Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
I Am Malala is the remarkable tale of a family uprooted by global terrorism, of the fight for girls' education, of a father who, himself a school owner, championed and encouraged his daughter to write and attend school, and of brave parents who have a fierce love for their daughter in a society that prizes sons.]]>327Malala Yousafzai0316322407Joey0to-read4.152012

<![CDATA[Jesus, Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible & Why We Don't Know About Them]]>6101996New York Times bestseller Misquoting Jesus left off, Jesus, Interrupted addresses the larger issue of what the New Testament actually teaches鈥攁nd it's not what most people think. Here Ehrman reveals what scholars have unearthed: 鈥he authors of the New Testament have diverging views about who Jesus was and how salvation works 鈥he New Testament contains books that were forged in the names of the apostles by Christian writers who lived decades later 鈥esus, Paul, Matthew and John all represented fundamentally different religions 鈥stablished Christian doctrines鈥攕uch as the suffering messiah, the divinity of Jesus and the trinity鈥攚ere the inventions of still later theologians These aren't idiosyncratic perspectives of just one scholar. They've been the standard widespread views of scholars across a full spectrum of denominations and traditions. Why is it most people have never heard such things? This is the book that pastors, educators and anyone interested in the Bible have been waiting for鈥攁 compelling account of the central challenges faced when attempting to reconstruct Jesus' life and message.]]>304Bart D.

An Atheist Manifesto11385030Thomas Jefferson April 13, 1743 鈥� July 4, 1826 Truth is not in demand in this society. We stand in abject fear of learning the truth. In being honest with ourselves, we must admit and accept that of our own volition we constructed a high tech do-it-yourself version of the European Dark-Ages in this so-called 21st century. We refer to this, as fundamentalism. After a thousand years of mental conditioning, we must admit the churches trained us too well. Now these habits are difficult to break, but changing a habit is not impossible. Always remember... 鈥淎fter your death, you will be what you were before your birth鈥� Arthur Schopenhauer February 22 1788 鈥� September 21 1860]]>46Joseph LewisJoey0to-read3.621954
