Redirection to the article "noosphere", the name "noogenesis", which is not a synonym for the term represented by the name of redirection, and the article does not fully describe this term as part of a more general article. An article about "noogenesis", the concept, the history of its appearance, scientific research and development in modern times deserves, in my opinion, an independent existence. It may be advisable to disconnect "noogenesis" from redirection, designate an independent article "noogenesis" for further editing. ] (]) 05:17, 19 April 2023 (UTC) |

How about a little blurb on pronunciation? |

A second for that. The Greek pronunciation would suggest "nus" with a long U, but "noetic" suggests a double long "O" as in German. ??? |

This section seems to be a bit cluttered with all sorts of references that are only marginally relevant.

==Removing memetics category== |

I am removing the memetics category from this article since you learn no more about the article's contents from the category and v.v. Since so many things may be memes we should try to keep the category closely defined in order to remain useful. Hope you're okay with that. The link to meme would be enough I suggest. ] 17:42, 23 July 2007 (UTC) |

== nousphere == |

Nousphere: Is a notion offered by Tielhard de Chardin, Jesuit Priest and world renowned anthrapologist, he referred to the biosphere as sphere of life, lithosphere as sphere of rock, and nousphere as sphere of thought. Some would have it that the web is a practical expression of de Chardin's nousphere, but this is far to simplistic for what he intended, best see it as the tenuous framework of thought linking people in societies, and now via the web, does link people across social boundaries. Nousphere is perhaps best expressed as Popper's World III which is a less spiritual idea but nonetheless a sharp and profound expression of the idea behind the nousphere. I am sure Popper and de Chardin would have found much in common. Nousphere could be seen as the core of culture, carried forward via Poppers World III, and existing beyond any individual, forming the glue of the society binding people together today, and binding generations together. I see the nousphere as humankind's rudder, giving ideological and moral direction. It is a rudder influecing all but influenced by only the few.

== Unraveling the secrets behind the noosphere == |
|
|
|
|
|
I was reading the book "Apocalypse 2012" by Lawrence E. Joseph and a thought sprang to my mind. How exactly does our brain work? We know that the brain transmits messages and conveys memories for every individual through electrical currents conducted in our nervous system. If so, and if the noosphere theory holds true to any degree, would it be possible that the electrical currents flowing through our head everyday is the door to the Noosphere? Lets put it this way. The brain is a blind man feeling around to recognize his environment and the electrical currents running through the brain is the blind man's hands. The Noosphere is, thus, the enivronment. As the current cuts through the noosphere as it travels through the brain, it picks up information and the brain interprets them into memory and sorts. This "Blind Man Theory", as i coin it, could this be how our brain really function? Where no one has their own memory but in place a collective, contributed well of memory where individuals tap into? If so, the potential of this noosphere will be overwhelming as we seek to unlock them.

==Origin of term== |

It needs to be written where and by whom the term ''noosphere'' was first conceived, and why. It vaguely says that Verdansky had, but it needs to be made more precise. |

The part of the biosphere occupied by thinking humanity; spec. (with reference to the writing of P. Teilhard de Chardin) a stage or sphere of evolutionary development characterized by (the emergence or dominance of) consciousness, the mind, and interpersonal relationships, postulated as following the stage of the establishment of human life.

1930 Jrnl. Philos. 27 499 This amounts to imagining, above the animal biosphere and continuing it, a human sphere, the sphere of reflection, of conscious and free invention, of thought strictly speaking, in short, the sphere of mind or noosphere. 1945 Amer. Scientist 33 9 There arises the problem of the reconstruction of the biosphere in the interests of freely thinking humanity as a single totality. This new state of the biosphere..is the noösphere. 1953 J. S. HUXLEY Evol. in Action iv. 110 It provides a new kind of environment for life to inhabit. It needs a name of its own: following Père Teilhard de Chardin, the French paleontologist and philosopher, I shall call it the nöosphere, the world of mind. 1970 Sci. Amer. Sept. 53/3 Just before his death..he wrote..‘I think that we undergo not only a historical, but a planetary change as well. We live in a transition to the noosphere.’ By noosphere Vernadsky meant the envelope of mind that was to supersede the biosphere. 1996 Wired May 158/1 We swim in imagination and bring the noosphere alive with collective consciousness. |

That's a very up-to-date entry from the OED. However they don't indicate the author of the 1930 or 1945 works. What I've seen elsewhere is that Vernadsky created the concept, and de Chardin expanded its use. It'd be a good topic to research further. <b>] ] </b> 18:06, 8 October 2009 (UTC) |

: see also this external link for a clarification http://www.tstu.ru/win/kultur/nauka/vernad/uchver.htm -- here it states, that vernadsky "accepted" the "noosphere" by leRoy and Chardin; we would have to add leRoy as well! --] (]) 15:25, 18 November 2010 (UTC) |
