We learn ourselves by »simulating our surveillance environment and its declarative and creatively open … instructions for our burgeoning personhood. In a sense, we are instructed or informed (as a machine might be programmed) by these environments, relationships, and their subtlest implications. Consider this deeply. Right now.

Think forest. Home. Church. School. »Libraries. Internet. Sky. Animals. Language. City. Prison. Statistics. Courtroom. Internet. Facebook.

Imagine growing up (protected and fed) in a box with a simulated forest.

And another with a real one.

20 years, each box. Keep in mind the mind knows the difference between an organism and a machine, in general… and attends them differently. Dramatically. Especially … with assets related to what we call mirror neurons.

Run the experimental thoughts. Follow the traces.

Discover our danger.

And the answers.
