gregory bateson and margaret mead were constantly pioneering new social constructs. here, for example, is a horny jail they made for themselves where if you try to escape you get malaria #hornyjail #gregorybateson #margaretmead #withadaughterseye

I did it!! I finished With A Daughters Eye and learned the secret I had been wondering - that in fact Cathy Bateson was an uncredited full author of Mind and Nature as she was the one typing up and editing the secrets of the universe that Gregory was rambling away at her while his cancer was briefly in remission. Idk whether to go back thru it for quotations now or to start on A Rap on Race

@walter Interesting article but I get a bit disappointed when I read something on this subject that fails to mention Gregory Bateson. His essays on "ecology of mind" discussed these ideas in depth and provide a lot of the theoretical groundwork before pretty much anyone.

Sadly his work seems to be largely forgotten these days, but I highly recommend "Steps to an Ecology of Mind" (the anthology of his essays) if this subject interests you.

a fun gregory bateson fact is that in the '50s he revolutionized the western understanding of schizophrenic treatment from "throw them in the looney bin" to "agree with them about their delusions and find a shared ground of reality"

and it appears he did so for the primary purpose of being able to provide intellectual justification for his thought "my mom drove me crazy but i wasnt crazy, my mom just sucked major ass"
