27844 - Hard mnemosyne
N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias
Something else, non-humane, non-massive, could’ve remembered
as well without difficulty, due to nature and physics.
It saw intelligence with the glance of a mathematician
and Mnemosyne with that of a psysicist.
Science required mathematics in order to think.
Mathematics required science in order to remember.
And informatics was an amalgam of both.
Of course, electronics had contributed to this
but it already awaited for the robotics.
In other words, hard intelligence had entered his life.
As if it was a matter of time.
And he liked living through that period of birth.
In that way, the returning would’ve also encapsulated Mnemosyne.
It wouldn’t be as in the past, where everyone had to
restart everything in each cycle.
In this case, the previous would have many elements accessible,
and the game would be able to continue,
without these unacceptable disruptions of the brain.
He examined closely the first foundations of memory
as it should’ve evolved in order to become storage space of Time, the living expansion of a book.
A single page wasn’t enough, but merely for the existence.
For all of the rest the book was necessary.
And the language was the memory of thought .
It was storing mental schemes.
