      If you have any, please reply with interesting ideas regarding how information/intelligence emerges from connections between nodes.

      For example, there is much stored in the human brain, but there's no "module" where memories or personality is "kept" -- no binary 1 0 system. I suspect a personality or mind must emerge from some branching pathway or voltage between nodes -- not only in the brain, but also from electric motion in greater nervous system and heart. I also suspect that the structure of systems like these is too complex to map out (on paper, at least) and that our rudimentary set of brain anatomy rules is contradicted daily.

      If this is true, what could this mean for other forms of life and connection? Could the way that a neuron tells the next to fire through chemical signals be any different from one ant inducing a behavior change in the next through antennae signals? An ant hill may be more than just "intelligent"...could it have a sense of "self"? Is the Sun "alive"?

      What motions from the unity between things do we receive from each other? What about from the Sun? Select Peat articles talk about the Sun's neutrino ether and the possibility that this is what produces consciousness...how different would we act outside of our solar system? What about in another star system?

      Please, reply with any thoughts you have.

          Gauge and respond to your own interest. If it's there, use a search engine and find it. Or better yet, read them all in order. When you get to that part, read the source. Search on the source and follow the road.

                      @ThinPicking a smart stupid person is better than a stupid smart person

                      "how did you test this hypothesis?" you may ask?

                      by
                      listening/reading discussions between "smart" people

                      who are actually stupid

                      and comparing them to comments from stupid people

                      who are actually smart

                      also most smart people who are actually stupid tend to have a higher percentage of evil / malevolent types

                      because they rationalize their stupid smartness in all sorts of megalomanical ways

                      whereas a smart stupid person realizes that they're probably just hungry and that's why they're having annoying thoughts

                      and they should probably just eat some ice cream instead of plotting some dastardly plot like a true scoundrel will

                      ive been both so i know by experience

                      being a smart stupid person is the way

                      being a stupid smart person is cringe and gay

                          Being that this is a Ray Peat inspired forum, I can provide a loose and general idea that William Blake was big on energy, and he was considered quite intelligent, to say the least: a genius by many.

                          So while I can't speak to any specific, technical workings within our own body's system, or how our body might work in interaction with other bodies, the idea of energy and intelligence seems very rooted in Blake: both in his work and himself. In my very light and cursory reading about him, it seems he was a man of intense energy and intelligence, and that energy was propelling him personally, a topic within his work, and the effect portrayed from his artistic method and style. He spoke of energy, but at levels I can't wrap my head around. For instance, in his The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, he speaks on energy; he speaks of the "evil" of energy, but this seems to be sarcasm and mockery, where he's criticizing status quo religion, and how it saps the energy of man, calling that energy "evil". I welcome greater minds to chime in and properly interpret this.

                          As for Blake himself, beyond his using the idea of energy in his work, he was an energetic person. In a biography on him, it's noted that "...when his tense nerves and superabundant physical energy drove Blake forth to stretch his limbs and cool his brain in long country walks of thirty, and occasionally forty miles at a stretch...".  (And this would've been in the shoes of the late 18th and early 19th century — not in the comfort of New Balance.)

                          It's late and I'm tired, but even apart from those things I would struggle to properly relay the ideas of Blake and Blake himself, but I think I have the general ideas correct and maybe it's enough to interest you in him, being consistent with your topic.  If anything, reading your title of energy and intelligence made me think of Blake first and foremost.
