The Formal Page
of
The Homeless Mathematician
"To Iterate is Human; To Recurse is Divine."
Welcome, kind guest. As you gaze at your video screen, you are viewing
the sentient being who performs formal
formulations by respecting the Form
and Substance of each Object with equal
dignity. Working with his associates, he performs consulting and formal design services
for business.
Please wander through these pages, as The Homeless Mathematician has wandered through this experience called "life". There are many Objects which will be the Subject of Discussion. Perhaps, there will be a "Connection", à la James Burke and "The Day the Universe Changed". That is what MMM/WWW, i.e.,
| Morphing Multi-Media |
| over the |
| World Wide Web |
is all about. There will be several opportunities for you to express what you may, or may not, think or feel.
In any case, please sign my Guestbook. You may also view
our Guestbook to read what other visitors have written. So far,
people have visited The Formal Page since November
1, 1995.
After embracing Mathematics at an early age, in the scientific heyday that followed the launch of Sputnik into orbit, The Homeless Mathematician stepped into a world with little esteem for the Spirit of Mathematics.
Now, at long last, CyberSpace has begun to manifest on the Grand Scale and a
full expression of the Form and Substance of this Spirit
is possible. Before exploring this expression, there are a number of Formal
Formalities, namely:
Standard Formalities
Objective Formalities
Subjective Formalities
Formalities of Substance
Subjective Informalities
However,
if you continue to scroll down,
you will be subjected to various
Experiential and Representational
s,
which transform the
of Distinction,
onto formalisms such as:
and 
and 
and 
Standard Formalities are established to assure that the needs and agendas of all concerned parties are respected with equal dignity. This is especially useful when the kind reader is crossing over into an unknown domain. The following items should answer any general "who, what, why, where, or when" questions.
Who is The Homeless Mathematician?
What does Formal Formulations actually do?
Why Homeless?
Where? Here!
When? Answer: Now!
We live in a universe of Objects and everything in the universe is an Object, of one form or another, real or imagined. The term "Objective Formalities" suggests both the concept of Formalities that are Objective; and the concept of Formalities associated with Objects. Take a quick look at the formal dictionary definitions for Objective, as distinct from to Subjective. After these touchstone definitions, the following topics discuss various types of Objects. Once the kind reader has been objectified, then the Paradigm of Form and Substance may be studied and applied as a general methodology to any Object.
The Metaphysics of Abstract or
Imagined Objects.
The Physics of Real Objects.
The Form and Substance of Objects (Abstract,
Imagined, or Real ).
The Form of Interaction between Two Objects.
The term "Subjective Formalities" suggests a set of rules that are set forth by the political institutions of the realm.
Conditions and Legal statements.
Okay. This is where an eclectic assortment of thoughts, experiences, and knowledge all come together to make nonsense of the universe.

however, 
Natural Stupidity is needed,
for reasoning by imperfect

In the following topics, the formalities of Analogical
and Analytical Reasoning are applied to Objects
in order to clarify the
and
of the Object.
There are two groups of topics.
between the Distinction of Form
and Substance and other classic Dialectic couples. This enlarges the
class of Dialectic tools which may be analogically
applied to specific Objects of interest.
The topics are partitioned in this manner because each Dialectic couple s
a strong
with the Paradigm of Form and Substance,
and therefore reinforces the authenticity of the original Paradigm.
The kind reader is warned that after going through the Dialectics, the Form
and Substance of Objects will look and sound
differently.
