Its just that my outside is a refection of my inside world. I think the interconnection is what happening.” Jacques van der Heyden”Knowledge is not just the apprehension of the world out there as we used to believe. The world is a long process of co-evolution, or co-definition, between outside and inside. The fundamental act of perception is precisely that drawing out into the visible something that wasn’t there previously” Francisco Varela
