An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Friday, June 11, 2010. We Really Don’t Know Very Much. For the past year and a half I've been privileged to know a very prominent psychologist who combines her discipline with extensive work in the incredible field of neuroscience. But her subsequent explanation of my response was more poetic and metaphorical than one might expect from a scientist – she said that I had opened a door into another area with unknown results, and I was experiencing a depth of emotion I...

An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Wednesday, May 26, 2010. It's been almost two weeks since I adopted my cat, Eva, and we've both needed to adjust and have learned more about each other. Probably because of her sense of security, Eva is not as affectionate as she seemed to be when she first arrived. She basically conned me into thinking that she was going to be a real snuggly little beast; the first afternoon, possibly because she was unsure, she burrowed into my armpit and let me hold and stroke her.

BunzBlog: Emotional Freedom and Positive Energy by Judith Orloff
http://tbunzel.blogspot.com/2011/02/emotional-freedom-and-positive-energy.html
An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Tuesday, February 8, 2011. Emotional Freedom and Positive Energy by Judith Orloff. Recently I was turned on to some great resources in the form of two books, Emotional Freedom. 8211; her web site also has some excellent videos. What I really like about Dr. Orloff’s work is its warmth along with its practicality. The impressive structure of the book addresses four dimensions of emotions that Dr. Orloff suggests must each be in balance for a harmonious existence: the p...

An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Wednesday, May 25, 2011. What If. The Sun Has Feelings? The following is a fictional “article”—one wonders, however, if the fields of biophysics and astrophysics evolve at their present pace, whether it might not one day be true…. CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND, May 26, 2011. Editors at the prestigious scientific journal Insight made a startling discovery today, when two papers they were about to publish from divergent fields overlapped in their findings. And discovered a new level ...

BunzBlog: A Matter of Scale
http://tbunzel.blogspot.com/2011/03/matter-of-scale.html
An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Monday, March 7, 2011. A Matter of Scale. Lately I’ve been “wasting” a lot of time thinking about strange things. For example…. DNA has been on Earth for 3.5 Billion years – within the first bacteria. Human software maybe for 60 (circa 1950 early mainframe computers). As we know from geneticist Juan Enriquez, among others, speaking at TED. And, if we take a larger perspective than that even the entire span of human history becomes almost insignificant…. Based on longevit...

BunzBlog: Thoughts on IBM Computer v. Jeopardy Champs
http://tbunzel.blogspot.com/2011/02/thoughts-on-ibm-computer-v-jeopardy.html
An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Monday, February 14, 2011. Thoughts on IBM Computer v. Jeopardy Champs. I was amazed as I watched the PBS Nova program. About how IBM has built a computer named “Watson” to play against Jeopardy champions, starting tonight. The big realization is that the computer never really understands anything. Computer “gets” nuance by performing incredibly complex searches through data, and it plays chess by analyzing a greater set of probabilities mathematically than a...While the...

An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Thursday, September 30, 2010. The heartbreak of watching television, particularly the news, is seeing the apparent chasm of understanding between the two hugely polarized segments of society, here in the U.S. and also around the world. To summarize the essence of the conflict as I see it:. The choice of terms or names is not meant to favor either of these camps over the other. To allude to a Christian concept, or actually one attributed to a spiritual master named Jesus,...

An Analog Guy in a Digital World. Friday, August 19, 2011. Food for Thought Amid Financial Confusion. Here’s a logical extension of where we are headed with unbridled “free enterprise” capitalism, combined with computer technology:. It makes amazing profits – but there is no one to spend the money – no one to take vacations, send children to college, make love, read a poem or enjoy a sunset. It seems that there are energy patterns based on human emotions pervading our planet. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
