About
Ecofunctor is a research project for ecology, mathematics and computer science, and philosophy about public ownership, post-capitalism theories like Marxism, Anarchism, and Lacanian/Zizikian theory. The current capitalistic paradigm built on reductionism is gradually obsolete, boring and stagnant, due to over-emphasis on profit and efficiency, killing those creativity and diversity which are not market-profitable. To overcome this, the critical thinking skills shall be lifted to an unprecedented height, by removing the assumptions of privatization and profit maximization, and embracing the unknown. Mathematics, the essence of reductionism, will be used throught the project where suitable.
Currently the project is focusing on bringing the gap between normal audience and difficult topics in several fields, like abstract mathematics, computer science, and philosophy, with a wiki website for easy access and reading, and the mindset of mathematical rigor and clarity shall be adopted.
The purpose of this project could be anything but profit(setting the profitability as goal renders the project unnecessary):
- improvement of critical thinking via Lacanian/Zizikian/Schopenhauer theories, together with abstract mathematics, to lift analytical skills to a unseen height
- daoism, and other eastern pantheist philosophies which emphasize the whole, and combine with modern reductionist thinking
- cooperative economy rather than private ownership to lift economy out of just profit maximization.
- no single value measurement(like money, GDP, efficiency), but analysis from multiple dimensions, intuitions and emotions
- decentralized, everyone shall took part, and even start their own similar projects
