1.2.2.  Symbolic Media

A critical transition in the development of a system is reached when
components of state are set aside internally or assimilated from the
environment to make relatively irreversible changes, indelible marks
to record experiences and to note intentions.  Where in the dynamics
of a system do these signs reside?  In what nutations of equilibrium
can the systematic agent insinuate the libraries that are capable of
keeping its notations, the treasury to keep the tokens of its passed,
pressing, or prospective moments of experience?  What parameters are
concretely set as memorials to the results of observations performed,
the outcomes of actions observed, and the plans of actions that must
be contemplated to provide the experiences of desired effects?  What
bank of memeory accumulates all the words coined and spent on sights
and deeds?  What mint guarantees the content and determines the form
of their first impressions?
