Hence, a statement about
an electronic occasion of experience can evoke propositions about such an occasion in much the way that a statement about human occasions can evoke propositions about human experiences.
The inertness and passivity of the stick or stone as a corpuscular society gives us no grounds for positing a similar inertness or passivity on the part of the protonic and
electronic occasions of which the society is composed.
Not exact matches
Lewis Ford applauded Leclerc's drawing attention to this thorny issue, but has struggled to preserve the detail
of Whitehead's portrayal, particularly in the face
of what he himself styles the «exegetical debate» over the stature
of molecular and
electronic «
occasions.
[W] e are in a special cosmic epoch... characterized by
electronic and protonic actual
occasions, and by yet more ultimate actual entities which can be dimly discerned in the quanta
of energy.
The thrust
of the cumulative argument
of Cobb's book is that since Whitehead wrote statements that clearly imply that regional inclusion obtains between molecular and
electronic occasions, we ought to be receptive to the suggestion that «soul»
occasions include the regions
of brain
occasions and God includes the regions
of all temporal
occasions, because there is no principle involved in these latter two instances which has not been acknowledged by Whitehead himself in the case
of the relations holding between molecular
occasions and
electronic occasions.
Also each electron is a society
of electronic occasions, and each proton is a society
of protonic
occasions.
The building block
electronic and protonic actual
occasions are, in the case
of human beings, swept into vastly more complex, Chinese box - like sets
of containing societies within which there are social levels that can be identified with cells, others which answer to Aristotle's levels
of tissues and organs, and which finally are presided over by what Whitehead refers to as the regnant nexus, a social thread
of complex temporal inheritance which, Whitehead suggests, wanders from part to part
of the brain, is the seat
of conscious direction
of the organism as a whole, and answers to what in Plato and Aristotle is called the soul.
However, the fundamental issue is that
of the possibility
of regional inclusion and not whether this relation obtains between molecular and
electronic occasions.
The alternative explanation
of the relation
of molecular actual
occasions to
electronic ones would be that the molecular actual
occasion is really a dominant
occasion in the society
of occasions constituting the molecule.
So a single brain wave would involve many societies
of electronic occasions.
He envisioned each electron to be a society
of electronic occasions.
Thus the statement that
electronic occasions take account
of their past and influence their future can evoke propositions that may have some correspondence to physical states
of affairs.
If we follow the argument
of the previous section, there would be some difference, for whereas the
occasions of human experience have considerable temporal breadth in relation to the
electronic occurrences in the brain, we have seen that the
occasions of God's experience must be extremely thin in their temporal extension.
Likewise, an electron or a proton would be an enduring object by virtue
of the fact that, besides the «yet more ultimate actual entities» within the
electronic or protonic society (PR 139), the «
electronic and protonic actual entities» (PR 139) are regnant
occasions within the society in which they are members.
Despite the indications, just noted, that there are
occasions at various levels, such as subelectronic,
electronic, and molecular, his most detailed analysis indicates that the larger units are societies
of mutually external smaller entities and do not have the unity
of actual
occasions.
And he does say that atoms and molecules are «organisms»
of a higher type than electrons (ibid) Furthermore, he refers to molecules as enduring objects, and he speaks
of molecular as well as
of electronic and protonic actual
occasions (PR 114, 123, 124, 139, 141).
Because
of the regnant status
of the series
of electronic, pro-tonic, or molecular
occasions, the electron, proton, or molecule has a significant degree
of unity
of response to its environment (internal and external), and thus can be spoken
of, for practical purposes, as a series
of actual
occasions.
Since
electronic occasions are presumably not in phase with each other or with other types
of actual
occasions, still further complications are involved.
The number
of successive
electronic occasions in a second staggers the imagination.
Electronic events are to be thought of as occasions of electronic e
Electronic events are to be thought
of as
occasions of electronic e
electronic experience.
For example, what we usually call «an electron» really is a society
of occasions, each
of which is a distinct subjective process
of becoming, flickeringly brief in duration; each inherits some characteristic forms (which we call «
electronic») from a predecessor and mediates them to a successor.
Griffin discusses what some think is necessary to constitute a subjective aim in the members
of a series:»... For God to be prehendable for each
occasion of experience in a personally ordered society, such as an electron, there would have to be a divine
occasion that occurred after one
electronic occasion (call it A) had achieved satisfaction and before the next
occasion (B) in the series] began.

With 755 horsepower the 2019 Chevrolet Corvette zr1 is the most powerful Corvette ever it's also the most technologically advanced behind me are the rolling s's at Road Atlanta and we're here to see if we can reach to the supercar levels
of performance afforded by this thing's massive power big tires and the tall wing on the back after that we'll take to the streets to see if a car this powerful can behave itself in public this is a monster
of a car I've had some brief track opportunities moving this morning to get used to the pace
of this machine which is phenomenal we're gonna warm up as we get out to the road Atlanta and sort
of build up to the pace that this car can operate at now initially when you hop in this car you have this shrine to the engine right above you you see the line
of the hood it kind
of dominates the center
of the view you can see over it it doesn't affect visibility but it's immediately obvious and that kind
of speaks to what makes this car special it's a monster
of an engine listen to that [Music] that is tremendous tremendous acceleration and incredible power but what I finding so far my brief time here at the Atlanta is that everything else in the car is rut has risen to match hurt me while I lay into it on the back straight look you know 150 mile - an - hour indicated we're going to ease up a little bit on it because I need to focus on talking rather than driving but like I was saying the attributes
of the rest
of the car the steering the braking capability the grip every system
of this car is riding to the same level
of the power and I think that's what makes it really impressive initially this is undoubtedly a mega mega fast car but it's one that doesn't terrify you with its performance potential there's a level
of electronic sophistication that is unparalleled at this price point but it's hard not to get you know totally slipped away by the power
of this engine so that's why I keep coming back to it this car has an electronically controlled limited slip differential it has shocks filled with magnetically responsive fluid that can react faster to inputs and everything this car has a super sophisticated stability control system that teaches you how to drive it quick but also makes you go faster we haven't even gotten into exploring it yet because the limits
of this car are so high that frankly it takes a while to grow into it but [Music] I think what's impressive about this car is despite how fast it is it is approachable you can buy this car to track dates with it and grow with it as a driver and as an owner I think that's a really special [Music] because you will never be more talented than this car is fast ever unless you are a racing driver casually grazing under 50 miles an hour on this straight okay I'm just going to enjoy driving this now [Music][Applause][Music] this particular Corvette zr1 comes with the cars track performance package a lot
of those changes happen underneath the sheet metal but one
of the big differences that is immediately obvious is this giant carbon fiber wing now the way this thing is mounted is actually into the structure
of the vehicle and it makes you know loading the rear hatch a bit more difficult but we're assuming that's okay if you're looking for the track performance this thing delivers also giving you that performance are these Michelin Pilot Sport cup tires which are basically track oriented tires that you can drive on the street but as we wake our way to the front
of the thing what really matters is what's under the hood that's right there's actually a hole in the hood
of this thing and that's because this engine is so tall it's tall because it has a larger supercharger and a bunch
of added cooling on it to help it you know keep at the right temperature the supercharger is way larger than the one on the zo six and it has a more cooling capacity and the downside is it's taller so it pops literally through the hood the cool thing is from the top you can actually see this shake when you're looking at it from you know a camera from the top
of the vehicle this all makes for 755 horsepower making this the most powerful Corvette ever now what's important about that is this not just the power but likewise everything in the car has to be built to accommodate and be able to drive to the level
of speed this thing can develop that's why you had the massive cooling so I had the aerodynamics and that's why I had the
electronic sophistication inside [Applause] we had a lot
of time to take this car on the track yesterday and I've had the night to think about things Matt today two crews on the road and see how this extreme performance machine deals with the sort
of more civil minded stuff
of street driving the track impressions remain this thing is unquestionably one
of the most capable cars you can get from a dealer these days a lot
of that's besides the point now because we're on the street we have speed limits they have the ever - present threat
of law enforcement around every corner so the question is what does this car feel like in public when you slow this car down it feels like a more powerful Corvette you don't get much tram lining from these big wheels though we as the front end doesn't want to follow grooves in the pavement it is louder it is a little firmer but it's certainly livable on a day to day basis that's surprising for a vehicle
of this capability normally these track oriented cars are so hardcore that you wouldn't want to drive them to the racetrack but let's face it you spend more time driving to the track than you do on the track and the fact that this thing works well in both disciplines is really impressive I can also dial everything back and cruise and not feel like I'm getting punished for driving a hardcore track machine that's a that's a really nice accomplishment that's something that you won't find in cars that are this fast and costs maybe double this much the engine in this car dominates the entire experience you can't miss the engine and the whole friend this car is sort
of a shrine to it the way it pops out
of the hood the way it's covered with coolers around the sides it is the experience
of this car and that does make driving this thing special and also the fact that it doesn't look half bad either in fact I think it has some
of the coolest looking wheels currently available on a new car this car as we mentioned this car has the track package the track package on this car gives you what they call competition bucket seats which are a little wide for my tastes but I'm you know not the widest person in the world this automatic transmission works well I mean there's so much torque again out
of this engine that it can be very smooth and almost imperceptible its clunky on
occasion I think I'd might opt for the manual although Chevy tells me about 80 %
of its customers will go for the automatic I don't think they're gonna be disappointed and that's gonna be the faster transmission drag strip on the street - and on the racetrack man it was a little bit more satisfying to my taste though we've talked about the exhaust I have it set in the track setting let's quiet it down a little bit so you can hear the difference now I've set that separately from everything else so let's put it stealth what happened to the engine sound that's pretty that's pretty amazing man stealth is really stealth and then go back to track Wow actually a really big difference that's that's pretty great the Corvette has always been a strong value proposition and nowhere is that more evident than this zr1 giving you a nearly unbeatable track performance per dollar now the nice thing is on the road this doesn't feel like a ragged edge track machine either you could genuinely drive it every day the compromises are few and that's what makes this car so special if you like what you see keep it tuned right here and be sure to visit Edmunds.com [Music]
