Heavy math in one and a new domain of human thought being discovered in the other. As general thinking skills, today’s papers may take a few minutes to absorb.
The first paper argues that human cognition has historically been organized around a limited set of domains—most notably the mathematical, linguistic, and symbolic-logical modes. Yet evidence from both personal phenomenology and broader cultural-technical trends suggests that an additional, underdeveloped cognitive domain may exist.
That holds potential to “rock the world.” We’re calling this, for now, the Hidden Domain, It’s where all the object-oriented thinking in the Urban column this week has sprung from. Also from our writing of the Hidden Guild website.
The second paper “Decomposition of Multiple Cycle Drivers in Financial Time Series: Evidence from Aggregate Index Data, 1999–2025” is served in two flavors. One version is as a link to the underlying paper. But the more accessible version (before this fall’s predicted decline) is quite accessible in the ChartPack.
Hopefully, you’ll find them useful as we stumble forward toward the fall…
