I view Koichiro's work to reach far, far beyond tensions between
objective or subjective; fact or judgment. If I understand the
extensive experimental data which generates his language, then I think
Koichiro is asking if we can understand what it means to be creative.
(The present progressive is actively processing the surrounding flows of
intensively intertwined and intermingled signal and signs; the precise
pathway is unknowable in advanced, in part because of the intertwining
of cyclic processes acting at different time scales and at unknowable
positions in their orbitals. )
The historical record laid down in the past (the present perfect) is
open and readable to all who attempt to repeat the experiments - it is
public information; reproducible and consistent with a large body of
pragmatic truths; it is "objective". Is Koichiro asking how the
objective is created?
