Introduction to the holofractal approach and opening the dialogue in r/holofractico
Hello everyone.
I want to use this space to share a line of research I have been developing for years at the intersection of philosophy, aesthetics, and the theory of knowledge. My academic journey started in Fine Arts, continued with a PhD in Arts and Humanities (graduating Summa Cum Laude), and currently extends into a master's research in philosophy focused on Holofractal Epistemology.expediente-1.pdf+1
The underlying idea is quite simple to formulate, although complex to develop: many crises in contemporary thought stem from the fragmentation of knowledge. My work attempts to conceptualize an architecture of knowledge where the part is not isolated from the whole, and where analysis, analogy, complexity, and form can dialogue with one another once again.TFM7.pdf
In this pursuit, I have been articulating what I call the holofractal approach: a proposal that connects classical analogy, fractal geometry, the holographic principle, and certain insights from authors like David Bohm, Edgar Morin, and Iain McGilchrist. In my Master's Thesis, this proposal is formulated as a "Holofractal Epistemology," aimed at rethinking intelligibility without falling into reductionism or a vague holism.TFM7.pdf
I am not opening this subreddit to impose a closed system, but rather to subject a line of work to contrast, discussion, and refinement. I am interested in sharing ideas, texts, diagrams, and problems; but also in receiving serious objections, nuances, and well-founded critiques.
If you are interested in the philosophy of knowledge, complexity, hermeneutics, the part-whole relationship, or the bridges between science, thought, and form, this space can serve us to explore all of that together.
Welcome.
