The Human Question

Every mechanistic system has a primitive that is not itself mechanized.  Newtonian physics had gravity, which itself is not explained mechanistically.  Consider it an energy of sorts.

Maybe this analogy works, I dunno: for a situation in which energeia and kinesis are interwoven, energeia is related to kinesis as is the act of listening-to-what-another-is-saying is to the hearing of individual sounds... and this is like what Polanyi has to say about higher and lower levels in his chapter on emergence in the Tacit Dimension (new word alert: demention?)
