Thank you Alan. By the way, the you Tube recital of I'm Tired of Waiting is just wonderful! It lived with me first time round and seeing a recital of it has imprinted itself in ways that have been very energising. And thank you to Jack for forwarding and improving links... I'm sorry that I have not been able to contribute as much as I thought I might to this eseminar series, a learning curve for me as a medium! but its been just great, look forward to reading your attached writing, best wishes Cathie Dr Cathie Pearce Research Fellow ESRI MMU tel: 0161 247 2074 Before acting on this email or opening any attachments you should read the Manchester Metropolitan University's email disclaimer available on its website http://www.mmu.ac.uk/emaildisclaimer >>> "Alan Rayner (BU)" <[log in to unmask]> 07/01/08 2:43 PM >>> ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan Rayner (BU) To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 2:40 PM Subject: Making Allowances Dear All, You may be interested in my latest piece of writing, attached. As ever, I simply found myself writing this experimentally to see what might emerge from the implications of a particular idea, in this case, 'making allowances'. I also wanted to write something that brought out the 'natural inclusion' ideas that were already present in a different guise in my book 'Degrees of Freedom - Living in Dynamic Boundaries' (Imperial College Press, 1997) and that might find a hole in the wall of orthodox evolutionary biology that would allow these ideas to be introduced and amplified rather than thoughtlessly dismissed. This is how the focus on 'creativity', 'autocatalysis' and 'induced fitting' (not 'fit' but 'fitting', where the latter term implies dynamic relationship) emerged as concepts orthodox theorists could recognise and relate to and be led to reflect more deeply on their inclusional meaning.
