Complementary schismogenesis
The first type of schismogenesis is best characterized by a class struggle, but is defined more broadly to include a range of other possible social phenomena. Given two groups of people, the interaction between them is such that a behavior X from one side elicits a behavior Y from the other side, The two behaviors complement one another, exemplified in the dominant-submissive behaviors of a class struggle. Furthermore, the behaviors may exaggerate one another, leading to a severe rift and possible conflict.

Charles Csuri on artists and scientists
It takes years of a highly disciplined education to become a
research scientist. Many years of study and artistic production are
required to become an artist especially one with an interest in
innovation. It appears, if you want to say a scientist is an
artist,just redefine the problem. The process becomes the content or
meaning. Let’s make the art object the algorithms or the information and
control systems which produce it. All of which becomes the artist’s
signature. This gives the scientist the opportunity to say “I am an
artist”. The scientist also can wear the mask of an art critic because
definitions have been changed. Now complexity and great art can be
determined by linear logic.
