Thule as Frontier

Metaorganisms as the new frontier.

Because it appears that almost all organisms are part of an interdependent metaorganism, an understanding of the underlying host-microbe species associations, and of evolution and molecular underpinnings, has become the new frontier in zoology. The availability of novel high-throughput sequencing methods, together with the conceptual understanding that advances mostly originate at the intersect...

The Right Frontier Constraint as Conditional

The Right Frontier Constraint (rfc) claims that antecedents are only available for anaphoric reference if they are located at the right hand side of any level of a linearly ordered discourse parse tree. We show that this constraint does hold only under certain conditions — which, however, apply for most circumstances of everyday talk. The data of our analysis in which the rfc does not hold come...

Next Frontier in Physics—Space as a Complex Tension Field

We hypothesize that 100% of the energy of our cosmic system is held by a physically real Complex Tension Field (CTF). We are using an old methodology of thinking used by our forefather engineers long before the advent of modern scientific thinking. We call it Interaction Process Mapping Epistemology or IPM-E. We apply this IPM-E on to the prevailing Measurable Data Modeling Epistemology or MDM-...

When the center no longer holds: Cities as frontier zones

This viewpoint argues that today’s frontier zone – a strategic frontier zone for global corporate capital as much as for those who lack power – is located deep inside our large cities. 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
