Introducing a stockpile into a void creates a closed system. Where there was nothing now stands a set of entities, possibly simple or symbiotic that can survive from that resource and others use of that resource.

One has no choice but to surrender to the idea that they are a part of this invisible network, whether they like it or not. Today, globally the main form of exports is information. […]
[“at the onset of a process of self-organization…the mechanisms become extremely sensitive to minor fluctuations in the environment…”naturally selecting” one assembly pattern over another” -Manuel DeLanda, Nonorganic Life ] Many of our networks can be described as “alive” because, while they are not made of biological tissue, they have become so complex, that the […]
