The transmission of information

One of the conditions of reproduction, and thus survival - the ability to transfer accumulated knowledge and not only their immediate, but also of many previous generations. This is primarily due to the fact that each generation lives in a unique situation, which has its own special meaning. Burdened by historical experience, the man quickly finds a solution. And since atypical situations, not so much, then finding the right solution every time it becomes almost a mechanical process. But never completely, because life always in arbitrarily small time is different, which requires a new and original approach.

The accumulation of experience and its transfer is a complex process. Life experience means understanding a number of situations. To understand means to move away from a situation at some distance (in time and in space), to look at it as if from outside, to estimate whole, to find something in common and decisive. And what is especially important, not only to appreciate its past, but also to make sense in the context of the present. In other words, to use the experience only in that case, if you produce understanding of the events. But the experience becomes valuable not in itself, but only from the point of view of its application for the solution of current (or rather, always future) tasks.

But in order to operate on experience, it is necessary to get it fixed, which means alienation from him, turning it into a kind of autonomy that exists apart from man and apart from man. To operate the experience means to produce any actions with the object. In fact, there is a question of three processes: the process of alienation, the process of fixation and the process of using the acquired knowledge. But we must not look here for primary and secondary. Each of them performs its role in the overall process of transformation of experience and knowledge.

It is also not necessary to pay attention to a logical contradiction arose: the experience can be fixed, if it is already realized and thus alienated. Otherwise, it cannot be represented as a separate entity. But we do not address now the mechanism for the transformation of direct action of the person consisting of many unreasonable acts of private actions, in particular the generalized conceptual knowledge. This is a special mechanism for conceptual transformation in human consciousness, and indeed consciousness of any community.

Therefore, the existence or experience of a person is always fixed, and above all in the memory of man. It is long, short, rapid, generalized, private, etc. But most importantly, good records direct acts of actions of the operational situation and almost helpless in the face of long historical developments. Most often the memory is not able to recover in retrospect any number of events. And if such a process is, the more often the composition of Fantasia on a given theme. The value of the memory in reproduction of immediate events and immediate experience, in spite of their importance for human existence, and the preservation and reproduction of the laws of conceptual transformations, and hence the General laws of existence.

Fixation of direct experience in consciousness always occurs in mental formations: in stories, myths, fairy tales, retellings of events, and so forth and so forth That would enhance the safety of the oral text he often indulged in the sacred character, were recorded in religious forms. Thereby is achieved that people memorized the text, and with it the General laws of being, expressed often in the rules of conduct.

The difficulty, however, was the fact that the texts in the retelling, almost always sounded slightly different, was always different from the conditional source text in memory. You can now imagine how to change the text, and therefore meaning, from generation to generation. In fact, life experience has often not suitable for direct use by subsequent generations.

Retell the text means to interpret it in some way and the most important for something. This is a very remarkable property of the person, which allows him to successfully deal with emerging complex or not very complex, but always different, different from the typical task to find the right solution. After all, interpretation is nothing but an attempt to apply the old, the past knowledge to solve new problems. And since knowledge is always the past, it necessarily in some degree of legacy knowledge, and therefore not completely suitable for the new challenges in the new environment for another person.
