Apprehending the Cognitive Order
What It Is, How It Shapes Us, and




More Specifics
The cognitive order plays a major role in virtually any social system.
As modern academic and scientific systems of knowledge communicate less directly with us, their social influence is diminishing.
Communications with a significant power coefficient are moving away from engaging our rational evaluative faculties.
We've acquired an unhealthy belief that what's significant in the world equals what's in the media.
The "media world" has been transformed into a mythical realm.
Although they might doubt it, artists have real potential to begin rectifying the balance of cognitive social power.
Those of us who are neither artists nor celebrities hold the ultimate keys to the cognitive order.
