Subject: Re: boundaries in flow


I think we really need to deconstruct this notion of boundaries.

If you have two flows, a flow of sand and a flow of gravel that you're pouring
into a funnel that's falling onto the ground, where is the boundary between
the sand and the gravel? What happens when heterogenous mixes mix?

In psychology especially (APA, DSMIV), the whole notion of "boundaries" has
become absurd in the last ten years. "Boundary violations", "making sure to
place proper boundaries" makes the whole field sound like a nation state
trying to keep out immigrants. Hakim Bey has a good online article critiquing
this.
