Devices form a community

Devices form a community

What is the individual's role in the community?

I used to think that an individual should negate himself vis a vis the community.  Bitul.

But with the analogy of CDMA, I am thinking that the individual spreads himself out throughout the community.  Just like the signal is first expanded and spread out across the entire time and frequency spectrum.

Then by observing the energy of the community the individual is fulfilled.  Like the observance of elctrical flow forms a magnetic field and drives the electric motors.

The tension, voltage, is what powers the motor, NOT the resolution of the tension.

The devices as individual should not exist, but rather they should be powered through the flow, the tension, that exists in the community of devices.

This reminds me of the email regarding bi-directional flow of information. So, not only does the device contribute to the creation of the community, but the community contributes to the definition of the device.

I am an individual.  I have certain idividual traits and characterstics.  I am six feet tall, can ride a bicycle, can think in creative ways, have communication skills, married with children...  I expand myself beyond my idividual traits and distribute myself throughout the community. I get involved in schools, traffic committees, holistic womens health, hi-tech.  In this way I defer my personal self gratification, negate parts of myself and spend the time inside the community.

Yet, now I am redefined as an individual.  I am watching the flow.  The schools continue without my involvement, the traffic flows without me on the committee, the hi-tech industries grow without me.  I feel joy in their continued existance.

In one way I am no longer an individual, I am part of the community.  In another way, I have refashioned myself to be extremly individual, and I feed off the communities magnetic field.

I don't need to receive the direct benefit from the school, my children don't need to be students.  I can observe the field effect.

So, the devices don't need to re-define themselves based on direct feedback from the community of devices.  Rather they should observe the field.

What is the field in the community of devices?  What is the flow?  What flows?
