| contents | We here report the development of a structure that shows the proteresis phenomenon in more general setting and set out its philosophical implications. In this case, the questions relate to how we are to interpret what will happen in the future, and the procollection (the counterpart of recollection) of not-yet-experienced phenomena that, when expressed, will be whatever has built up in fully determinate form already, ahead of the event. If such a process really exists, as our evidence confirms, not just as phenomenon but as a fact, then a gap exists between the actualized form of the future and its concrete expression when the event does happen. Such a fact, as hard to imagine as it is, may be intelligible, even interpretable and susceptible to mathematical and/or logical modeling. We build upon neglected theories and formulae that present time in a way that makes our results interpretable. A proteretic device is here described which shifts the input signal (event) to the future; and it is an anticipatory structure. The proteretic characteristic of neurons should also be capable of demonstration; and its neuronal behavior is possibly the reason for the fast perception/thought processes in spite of slow behaving neurons. That capacity may also account for why it is possible for animals (including humans) to interact with the environment by slightly seeing (in the sense of perceiving and/or sensing) the future. Exploiting this new proteretic technology, faster computers and more efficient cellphones, among other things, will be designed and built. |
