Philosophers like Daniel Dennett have speculated on the principles of its transformation. Emanuel Pimenta has been writing and publishing articles and books on the subject since the 1980s, but with a different approach, essentially mathematical. Starting from Charles Sanders Peirce and incorporating neuroaesthetics, he establishes princi­ples of mutation and conceptualization of culture as an alive organism.</p> ER -
