Jasper's Wandering Dream

The crux of his argument is that humans are self-referential feedback loops. We take in information from the world and incorporate it into how we react the next time we receive information. A whole section of Strange Loop is dedicated to Hofstadter’s concern with the memory of his late wife, Carol. She died suddenly and he was left wondering what parts of her, if any, can “survive” in his memory. And he eventually concluded that every human is a combination and response to all the other humans they’ve ever interacted with:

Honestly, I’d just leave but I’ve figured out how to separate things to stave off the censor bots, so I’ve changed the name to -defunct and am reconsituting it in the same place it was before.
