18 Oct 2021 – The case for the following search of web resources follows from two similar investigations undertaken previously. Web searches were undertaken to determine the extent to which a 14-fold pattern was used to organize information of relevance to any form of governance.

11 Oct 2021 – Reframing Virtual Death and Assisted Dying by “Just Suffering Theory” – Governments’ responses to the pandemic have been cautiously sensitive to the concerns articulated in the Nuremberg Code.

Crafting an Exit Strategy from Universal Vaccination Failure
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Serice, 20 Sep 2021

20 Sep 2021 – Prudent Preparation for the Probability and Impact of the Unforeseen – There is clearly a major global consensus by authorities on the strategy of universal vaccination as the primary response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This is justified by them in the light of interpretations of available evidence and modelling with regard to herd immunity — for which there is necessarily no hard evidence in the current case.

Enabling the “New Normal” through “Renormalization”
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 6 Sep 2021

The pandemic highlighted widespread concern with the possibility of conditions returning to “normal”. This is now framed as “the light at the end of the tunnel”. Recognition that it is becoming unreasonable to expect to return to that old “normal” — whether or not that is desirable — discussion has however shifted to understanding the nature of the so-called “new normal”

Misleading Modelling of Global Crises
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens – TRANSCEND Media Service, 30 Aug 2021

The argument here is provoked by the single-issue modelling of the global pandemic and the consensus to which it has given rise regarding universal vaccination as “doing the right thing” and “for the benefit of all” — with zero consideration of alternative possibilities. Not only are these alternatives absent from public discourse, but any efforts at their articulation are reframed as misleadingly associated with misinformation — therefore requiring vigorous suppression, and censorship of those promoting such methodological consideration.

Being Unmasked as Unshot and Unjabbed
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 23 Aug 2021

23 Aug 2021 – There is an unprecedented global agreement among authorities about the desirability, if not the necessity, of universal vaccination. Via the media, government propaganda urges people to get their “shots” or “jabs”. The following is a reflection on the existential condition of being “unshot” and “unjabbed” — and being “unmasked” as such.

Interrelating Multiple Ways of Looking at a Crisis
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 9 Aug 2021

9 Aug 2021 – It is extraordinary to note that the current period is witness to a singular way of looking at a crisis. In this case the challenge is the pandemic. The one way of looking that has emerged as an absolute global necessity is universal vaccination. Informed by “science”, every effort is now made to ensure that all authorities reinforce this modality and that any other way is depicted as ridiculous, if not dangerous — to be eradicated by any means possible.

Application of Universal Vaccination Narrative to Climate Change
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens – TRANSCEND Media Service, 31 May 2021

30 May 2021 – There are numerous sources justifying universal vaccination against COVID-19. However, many others highlight the arguments for vaccine hesitancy. The controversy bears a resemblance to the poisonous discourse between opposing political parties in any country — except that the enforced total dominance of public discourse by pro-vaccination authorities is more consistent with the dynamics of a dictatorship.

Encoding Coherent Topic Transformation in Global Dialogue
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 24 May 2021

24 May 2021 – Few would question the importance of dialogue in this period of global crises and poisonous divisiveness. There are of course many approaches to dialogue although it is less evident how their insights translate into the challenges of inter-national, inter-faith, inter-cultural, inter-sectoral, and inte-disciplinary dialogue in practice. There are many calls for dialogue as a substitute for conflict. There is however a sense in which the appreciation of dialogue is somewhat superficial — reinforced by exercises in which it only takes token and symbolic form as a feature of public relations.

Problematic Challenge of Global Discernment – The international community strongly deprecates the isolated voices associated with vaccine hesitancy citing possibilities of: autism, vaccine overload, paradoxical vaccine responses, autoimmune triggering, prenatal infection, ingredient concerns, sudden infant death syndrome, and infertility.

Meta-pattern via Engendering and Navigating “Pantheons” of Belief?
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 19 Apr 2021

Conventionally a pantheon is the particular set of all gods of any individual polytheistic religion, mythology, or tradition. There are an estimated 4,200 different religions in the world, although these may be variously clustered. However, in an extensively secularized global civilization of considerable complexity, “pantheon” may in practice have other meanings — as with “religion” and “god”. Religion may then be extended to mean a pattern of fundamental beliefs. Any such religion may then be recognized as having one or more gods — and perhaps many.

Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens – TRANSCEND Media Service, 8 Mar 2021

8 Mar 2021 – History may well find it remarkable the extent to which the present period cultivates the pretence of the adequacy of binary distinctions. Arguably these have even been embodied in the technologies on which civilization is now so dependent. In the case of the computer, this is most evident in the on/off distinction of logic gates — ironically at a time when progress in quantum computing is revealing other practical possibilities.

What level of encryption is used in the process of description? The art of encryption recognizes levels of ever greater complexity in order to ensure ever greater levels of secrecy and security — but for whom? What degree of encryption is associated with reference to “forest” or to “whale” in conventional strategic discourse?

15 Feb 2021 – Faced with multiple crises and conflicts of every kind, the world is witness to appeals for unity on the part of leaders variously embroiled in such crises. Despite the gravitas with which these appeals are framed, they can be increasingly recognized as naive — in the light of past responses to such initiatives. The naivety with regard to simplistic understandings of unity is currently evident in the commentaries evoked.

Implications of Universal Vaccination–Voluntary or Otherwise – The question as to whether vaccination against COVID-19 should be voluntary or mandatory is now widely discussed. Increasingly any questions as to the value or dangers of such vaccination are framed as misinformation — if not deliberate disinformation and a feature of conspiracy theories, necessarily to be deprecated.

Living within a Self-engendered Simulation
Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 4 Jan 2021

4 Jan 2021 – There is an ongoing debate among scientists as to whether humanity and the planetary environment are best understood as part of a simulation developed and maintained by an advanced race of extraterrestrials. As a speculative argument, this offers one way of understanding why humanity has not been contacted by ETs — if humans could comprehend the form which such contact might take.

Jabbercovid from the Jabberplex
Anthony Judge | TRANSCEND Media Service, 7 Dec 2020

2 Dec 2020 – The divisive nature of public discourse, most obviously between political opponents, could now be seen as characterized by repeated attempts to “take a jab at each other”. Rather than any reference to the “chattering classes”, the associated processes might now be caricatured as a feature of the “jabbering classes” — with the military-industrial and medical-industrial complexes usefully caricatured as forming a “jabberplex”.

Anthony Judge | Laetus in Praesens - TRANSCEND Media Service, 28 Sep 2020

The concern in what follows is the quest for indications as to how the communication potential of virtual conferences might be more fruitfully organized — beyond past patterns of enabling the many to listen to the few.

Reconciling in 3D the Vitruvian Archetype with Sports Ball Curves – The speculation here is that the long-admired (and much-reproduced) Vitruvian Man, as famously depicted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1490, could be seen as apparently reinforcing a two-dimensional worldview — even though it is interpreted as implying and exemplifying what could be considered as a vital perspective on proportions in their more integrative global sense.
