Tying together some pearls on a strand as they come together. Time for a thread. 🧵 Been digging back into "I Am A Strange Loop" a book written back in 2007 by Douglas Hofstadter of Godel, Escher, Bach fame. I was inspired by the theme of recursion that both @know and @downshift.eth mentioned recently. I think I started this book when if first came out but got distracted. I am amazed at how much the themes pick up on what I'm after with this /mirror-loom channel. He gets quickly into how much abstraction leads to what we know of the world around us and how dependent we are upon it in scientific disciplines. 1/5 https://farcaster.xyz/hyp/0x17a857f0
