more explanation on Lacan's optical model

THE ILLUMINATI to note: Illuminati DESCRIPTION OF PLAN'S WORK


The first known description of our social system have been written by Plato in The Republic. While it was a time of founding the tradition of Sciences, The Republic offers a model, which is not a legend, not a pictogram or a hieroglyph, but a formula or an algorithm as we call it today. There are no drawn graphs of this system which remains from Plato's time - but the text of its written description is precise enough for allowing its reconstitution.


Pic.10: Plato's Cave to note ref.

The source of light (R) - sun or fire - casts on the inside wall of a cave,
the shadows of icons (representations) (V) carried by (B)
by which means they are thus visible by the inhabitants of the cave (N).


If we stop a moment and think about this model, we evaluate how was unified and general the description in theses early times. Philosophy, Art and Politics were unified in the explanation of Reality. Plato's model intended to an unique representation for what we distinguish today as material, economical or spiritual aspects of reality. Therefore, we must expect that today, it would unify Ecology, Sociology and Psychology if... of course, and only if this very antique representation could be updated to fit with our present condition of modern existence.

If we even take some time to read Plato, we also learn that he introduces in his model the knowledge of acoustic phenomena, especially sound condensation in appropriate volumes, that had certainly been observed by early human in caves. Plato use this image of the condensed sound of voices for the attribution of a soul to the shadows according to the inhabitants observation. As the description below continues it describe the same coincidence of form and condensation (see respectively flowers and  vase) in the Optical Model which unifies the system under a Principle of Light as follow :

Firstly, Lacan in 1950 presented to the scientific community its project for an ontology, beginning with the use of the experiment of condensation of light as the optical setting of a concave mirror shows:

Pic.20:  Optical setting of a Real Image:
the yellow vase appears in real (red)
when in a concave mirror

With this illustration Lacan suggested the neural
function of the brain, in comparison with a concave mirror.
A NeuroPsychology could then describe how the body
is appended with objects of its instinct/drive

.then a PsychoSociology

Lacan represented Plato's cave with this real image

And added a reflection system - as a lake

then a Human Ecology

The second improvement that Lacan

PICMODOP

SAYmove of Reality on the right
Thus giving a place for Artif Intell in th emodel o Civili
And therefore opening to a new space inside the cave kno known as Code

THE IDEA

A - The Cave

B - Establisment of the Psychoanalytical Model (miror plan)

C - because mirror can make wall - phase said 1 (should better be 'zero') [democ]

D - So then... what ? What allow and what appears in Democ

answer in Plato's reality Lacan's mirror system introduces an illustration of a black box - this is the Cybernetic apparatue

laus on Cybernetic - it appeard with the first 'product' - now it enters a phase of coaliscence with Code wich is represented by the move of superimposition yello/blue


NOTE 10 : The name ' Illuminati ' has been given to............... It is used hereby, for this page presents the antecedences on PLAN in antiquity and in the tradition - which indicates PLAN's root and filiation in the history of science, rationalism, in relation to Nature and environment. It also shows how in the modern time the traditional model can be entirely illustrated by an optical machanism of light - thus deserving the ancient association which evokes clarity, understanding and illumination <back to text>
