Tatiana Nikolayeva – An Autonomous Agent / exploring the noosphere Sun, 15 Oct 2017 02:55:28 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.2.3 Godel, Escher, Bach – Douglas Hofstadter /2012/12/godel-escher-bach-douglas-hofstadter/ /2012/12/godel-escher-bach-douglas-hofstadter/#disqus_thread Sun, 30 Dec 2012 03:15:00 +0000 https://anautonomousagent.com/?p=424 In early November I ran across a book called Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas Hofstadter.  I began reading that book recently. Every page seems to be a remarkable insight into the universe. Highly recommended as one of the best books I have ever opened. Check out the following music by Bach: Musical Offering, Never-ending Canon, Die Kunst Der Fuge (The Art of Fugue), and Kleines harmonisches labyrinth (Little Harmonic Labyrinth). To complement the book, I purchased the The Art of Fugue by Bach and Tatiana Nikolayeva. The book explains the concept of Godel’s Incompleteness Theorems and their relationship to cognition. (ISBN-13: 978-0465026562)
