It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

EMERGENCE

There is so much potential in "Complexity Theory" and the related "Systemic Philosophical" outlook, that in this time of crisis (Ethiopia-Africa) WE could make - the Best and - a lot - out of IT. Be it in a cultural development (Arts, literature, music etc) or a "sustainable" new and healthy social economy....If ....If.....only...Those who happened to dominate "The State" of affairs....would dare to reflect....setting up the right priorities...the decisive policies and the room and space of freedom and emancipation....in a global - national scale, with a commitment for an overwhole INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT, which would tremendously enhance sooner or later a BIG BIG LEAP in our technological Development...EMERGENCE.......avoiding almost all the pitfalls the "western intellectual"-world is still struggling to escape or ...get rid of.....like "evironmental problems"..."psycho-consumption-epidemy" etc...or simply existential-fear engulfed in a non-reflective intellectual poverty, which gives thousands of room and space for all sorts of "demagogues" to play with the "basic" backward instincts of the mass, to still beleive in the naked "magical forces of the market" to bring about social justice and development; inspite of the disastorous outcome of their "neo-liberalism", which is today manifested in the recent financial crisis ....( It is with this in mind, I think, that the old living famous social-democrat ex- chancellor Helmut Schmidt said a pair of weeks ago on the issue, that the social-market-economic-system /"Soziale Marktwirtschaft"/ is one of the main achievements of the century, with its emphasis on the "social" - just to mention here , ...to which, the achievement Obama made on "health insurance" this week belongs too).......In a nutshell ...."western economy" in its traditional and classical touch is still in the turmoil ...at best, at the edge of the "chaotic" plane working hard on its way into and ......towards a healthy and sustainable quality of life . This is one aspect, the other is that... the corresponding "conservative" forces are on the contrary .....trying to look for "a work around" by settling in regions like "Africa" and where ever it is possible to relieve themselves from the "chaotic plane" which the "industralized" man has brought upon the modern "human". ( See ....the disastor of the "Gibe Project" . This falls in this catagory of irresponsibility and indifference for the long-term welfare of Man/Wo-Man !)

SPRING is Becoming!

SPRING is Becoming!
*
Networks escape our immediate attention because we are naturally and generically always engaged with them, like moving our legs and hands while walking and talking on a sunny day of a spring. Space and time is however abundant in networks, in all their diverse forms and modes.
Networks ....networks....networks...networks...networks....Life is just full of networks.....and......relations.......social/political.....culturial.......economic.....spiritual........material.......from nature through mankind upto the universal .....even in a cosmic scale......
If the INTELLECTUAL as a singular and an autonomous entity .....could ever see through the intensities and multiplicities (Deleuze's philo-catagories) of these networks ....with the good will/desire (Deleuze**) of mediation.....the Political and the Social would turn to be a positive plane, where progress could be attained as a whole,...... with its total sum of ..... "CIVIL---ization" (not meaning a "western" mode of life, but a process of building a solid social complex in the interest of the citizen)....be it cultural or technical modernization.......

The Ethiopian modern elite so far seem to have a problem in this role....(The role of a catalyst (cf. DeLnada) for something to emerge anew (cf. complexity theory)).

The following essays are interesting introductions on the theoretical promotion of understanding the ontology of networks... (based on the thoughts of Foucault, Deleuze+ and Delanda).

If the elite mange to look at our history from this perspective of "networks", I believe , inspite of what went "wrong" in history -be it recent or older, - " .....a battle ....not based on the logic of meaning but on that of events" (cf. Foucault/Kai Eriksson) - as an emerging "collective", ........the Ethiopians; ....ie. WE can ALL-together terminate ---the non-productive and the rather weird period of war and revolution - to organise a "productive" future, better and wiser; "productive" in all its dimensions of meaning, under the given conditions of the social "ontology". In this social "ontology" the big obstacle seems to be the political section - the political dimension is still struggling to come out of its infantility....( See the election campaign these days! The same old themes....of ethnicity are being introduced).

I find the following approaches**, to be helpful to do better in our reflections:

**"Deleuze’s conception of philosophy is characterized by an aspiration to think through flows, movements, alliances, and disentanglements rather than essences, structures, or institutions: for him it is desire and lines of flight that set the conditions of power, communication, and history."(Foucault, deleuze, and the ontology of networks, Kai Eriksson a Department of Sociology, University of Helsinki, FIN-00014 Helsinki, Finland. p604/p11)

+ Deleuze's works and books /rather difficult to follow/ (Difference & repititions, Anti-Oedipus, A Thousand Plateaus, What is Philosophy etc.); Delanda's (A thousand of years of nonlinear history; A new philosophy of society, War in the Age of Intelligent Machines etc.)
