Non-Biological Criteria of Life

Beyond Biology: Exploring the Non-Biological Criteria of Life:

Joey Lawsin’s works on the Non-Biological Criteria of Life, also referred to as the Law of Seven Inscriptions, offers a groundbreaking perspective on defining life. 

Unlike traditional biological definitions that rely on cellular structures, genetic material, and metabolic processes, Lawsin's approach is rooted in chemical and inscriptional criteria. This paradigm shift opens up new avenues for understanding life, particularly in contexts where biological elements are absent or immaterial.

In his work on Autognorics, Lawsin identifies seven non-biological sequential criteria or evolutionary signatures that characterize the states of being alive, living, and with life, independent of biological elements. These criteria provide a novel standard for defining life from a non-biological perspective.

The Seven Non-Biological Criteria of Life:

1. Mechanical Aliveness

Mechanical Aliveness refers to the capability of a system to self-consume energy and self-energize. This criterion emphasizes the importance of energy management within a non-biological entity, allowing it to sustain its functions autonomously. For instance, a machine that can recharge its batteries using solar panels and activates itself exemplifies mechanical aliveness. This self-sustaining energy cycle is crucial for the continuous operation and longevity of the machine. It mirrors biological processes where organisms consume food to generate energy, but in a non-biological context as it relies on mechanical and chemical processes. This process is founded on Inscription by Design where embedded inscription within its design are sequentially activated, to perform certain tasks, when energized.

2. Sensoric Awareness

Sensoric Awareness is the ability of a system to perceive and engage with its environment using intuitive sensors. This involves the integration of various sensory inputs and outputs that interact within its surroundings. For example, a machine equipped with cameras, micro-controllers, and touch sensors can navigate and respond to changes in its environment without the help of a brain. This aneural awareness allows the system through inherent inscriptions within its design to act to various situations and react accordingly. It is akin to the sensory perception in living organisms, such as plants and microorganisms, but is achieved through abiotic means. In this stage, the machine is alive and aware but not living and without life yet.

3. Logical Intuitiveness

Logical Intuitiveness is the capability of a system to process information inherently without the need for a brain. This involves the use of embedded inscriptions and binary logics methods to make decisions. This natural binary choice is based on the Law of Second Option. It is also founded on the  conclusion extrapolated in the experiments on Intuitive Aneural Network and Inscription by Design that positively recognize that a network of intuitive logics give rise to aneural intelligence and sequential instructions produces inscriptional behaviors. For example, a myriad of switches can produce various outcomes when combined with smart sensors and such performances exhibit logical intuitiveness. This criterion highlights the potential for non-biological systems to perform logical tasks typically associated with biological brains. It underscores the role of logic and sensors in achieving intelligent behavior.

4. Codified Consciousness

Codified Consciousness is a form of consciousness that does not rely on a biological brain. This type of consciousness can emerge from simple to complex networks of non-biological components, such as intuitive binary circuits and intuitive sensors. Through the combinations of sensors and logics, the machine can match and sort things in group or types. The idea is based on Lawsin's Dictum "If I can match X with Y, then, I am conscious." This Associative Consciousness is the telltale sign that an object is conscious. Consciousness only emerge when sensors and logics are both present.

For instance, an advanced factory automation that can exhibit self-awareness through its sensors and associative memory behaviors through logic circuitry demonstrates a mechanical type of aneural consciousness where the flow of production is sequentially controlled by sensorics commands using photoelectric sensor or optical switches while separating systematically products, for example, objects made with various shades of colors.

5. Aneural Inlearness 

Aneural Inlearness is the ability of a system to sense, codify, and process information without a biological brain. This involves manufacturing its own image the use of intuitive aneural network and embedded binary memory block (stored information) to process inherent embedded information through inscription by design. For example, a simple switch and light bulb circuitry exemplifies information inlearness. This whole circuitry is actually a memory block where the switch and the bulb are sensors with logics. The system codifies information in the switch by turning it On and Off while the light bulb lights on and off. The whole circuit is a memory block that contains embedded information. Through Looping into the same memory block, inlearning emerges. This criterion emphasizes the importance of IAN (intuitive aneural network) and AMB (aneural memory block) in non-biological systems, enabling them to adapt and evolve. It parallels the learning processes in living organisms  through inscription by design.

6. Symbiotic Living

Symbiotic Living is the capacity of a system to coexist, reproduce, and thrive in harmony with other entities. This involves forming mutually beneficial relationships that enhance the survival and functionality of the system. For example, a network of interconnected wireless devices that share resources and support each other demonstrates symbiotic living. This criterion highlights the importance of cooperation and interdependence in non-biological systems. It mirrors the symbiotic relationships found in nature, where different species collaborate for mutual benefit.

7. Inscripted Self-Emergence

Self-Emergence is the ability of a system to perceive itself or individuality through inscription by design. This involves the non-biological criteria of life in the formation of its unique identity and the capacity for recognizing oneself and its environment. For instance, a machine that is inscripted to recognize its own existence and differentiate itself from other entities exhibits self-emergence and possessing life. This criterion challenges the traditional boundaries of individuality, suggesting that self-consciousness can arise in non-biological systems. It opens up new perspectives on the nature of self and identity in artificial entities.

The seven sequential non-biologica criteria or evolutionary signatures of life outline a progression from simple to complex systems. These signatures help in identifying and categorizing different stages of life, from basic chemical interactions to more advanced, life-like inscripted behaviors.

By providing a non-biological framework, scientists can explore the possibility of life forms that do not conform to Earth-based biological standards and could be instrumental in the search for extraterrestrial life.

By integrating these criteria with the concepts of the Single Theory of Everything, Autognorics, and Inscription by Design, Lawsin's theory on embedded inscriptions and intuitive materials serves as the foundational elements on creating life in non-biological systems. These theories collectively redefine our understanding of life, consciousness, and the building blocks of creation.

The Silver Species

First drafted 1988 Published 2000 Revised 2010

by Joey Lawsin

The Biotronics Project was first conceptualized by Joey Lawsin when he was in high school. It was revisited in 1988 with a basic aim in his mind: to create intuitive machines that look alive, living, and with life. He collectively named these abioforms the Silver Species. 

Biotronics is a construction of the coined words "bio" and "electronics". "Bio" means alive or with life, and "Tronics" means wise electronics. In a broader sense, this new group of synthetic living organisms can see, smell, taste, hear, feel, think, breed, talk, fly, swim, build, and be conscious, which by human standards are functions described as biological life. They die too. 

Zoikrons are self-living self-ness machines. The coined name is derived from “Zoi” and “omicrons”. They are experimental prototypes developed to simulate the Sensation of Awareness, Emergence of Consciousness, the Mechanization of Aliveness, the Experience of Self-living, and the Realization of Selfness. In short, Biotronics and Zoikrons are made to learn the true meaning and nature of life from a different perspective, the machine way.

Abiozoics, which means the creation of non-life (abio) to life (zoi), is a discipline that generally studies the transformation of non-living species into living organisms. It also deals specifically with the transformation of abstract to realities or from nothing to something. The concept is based on the principle behind the ZiZo effect. Humans and other living organisms might look different from these metallic species, but in reality, both are exactly the same in biophysical and biomechanical structure. They are made up of intricate networks of sensors that trigger sets of instructions and emulate the Animation Effect.

Being alive, living, and with life are three different terms that are usually interchanged and confused. Because of these confusions in terminology, Lawsin used the word Bioform to represent an entity or system that is alive, living, and with life. An entity is alive if it consumes energy to power itself. An entity is considered living if it is alive. And an entity has life if it is both alive and living. Humans and autognorics are examples of bioforms.

On the other hand, Abioform, a term coined by Lawsin in his book The Biotronics Project, is an entity or system that is alive and living but without life (self-realization). Abioforms are entities that are alive or living but have no capability of recognizing themselves. Plants and animals, according to some studies, can't recognize themselves and thus they don't possess self-realization. They are not self-conscious. Plants and animals are examples of abioforms. The biotronics in the video is another example of abioforms

Lawsin also invented and developed several new smart robotic systems such as Neurotronics, Homotronics, and Inverse Codex to meet all the demands of his scientific experiments on inscription by design, embedded instructions, generated emergence, codexation, intuitive objects, associative aneural consciousness, and maximize them into the context of technology rather than in the philosophy and psychology or neuroscience of self-consciousness. But before we get into the details of how a silver specie is created, programmed, and given life to become Autognorics, let us discuss first what is a system.

A system is a process, a sequence of instructions, or a list of activities, within a group or family tasks for a common purpose. The instructions are the electrical parts that work together to light up a living room, or entertainment equipment, or to control one's ventilation. They are the modular programs in a computer that execute commands like saving a word document, deleting an Excel spreadsheet, or copying a PowerPoint presentation. They are the modules or various sub-systems of the human anatomy grouped together to accomplish a common task - to facilitate life. These eleven anatomical systems are the skin, skeleton, muscles, heart, lymph, nerves, glands, lungs, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. These body systems work in a highly organized and coordinated way to assist a very well-designed living system called Homo sapiens (human beings).

In the human body system - the eyes, hands, ears, tongue, nose, and brain are called biological sensors. Sensors are classified into two: collectors and actuators. Collectors are the first line of sensors where inputs are received. These inputs, which are acquired through seeing, touching, hearing, tasting, smelling, and imagining, flow into a very intricate network of biological wires. They are stored statically or dynamically in a memory bank. This stored information or data is accessed or activated depending on the needs of the body. Once triggered, the information flows out through the biological actuators. Actuators are the last line of sensors where outputs are sent out. Collectors and actuators are linked together by a medium called carriers or transmitters. Within these biological structures, smart switches called controllers or regulators are the logical gates that connect a system to other systems.

Human is made up of several smart sensors that are turned on and off. The system of life which we call biological life is activated by these wise sensors.
