Alphaphorism

Alphaphorism is a philosophical project which originated from the idea that concepts such as finalities, meanings, ..., i.e. informations which do not consume energy in the physics sense of the word energy, can be a source of imaginary energy.
The project claims to be a scientific project in the primary (Greek) sense of the word "science".
The objective of Alphaphorism is to try to build additional philosophical knowledge in order to discover new emergent properties in the process of thinking (logos).
The planned operative scheme will be based on interconnections with other fields such as natural and human sciences, arts, religions.

Origin of the word Alphaphorism:
From alphaphor which is a new word constructed from the word metaphor (meaning; ' carrying an image') in which the prefix 'meta' is replaced by 'alpha'.
Meta means image.
Alpha is meant to be more than an image.
In thermodynamics, for example, an image or 'information' does not consume energy:

• meta = 0

In Alphaphorism, alpha is given the value 0 + imaginary unit i :

• alpha = 0 + square root of -1

Phor (from Greek phoreus) means 'carrier'.

Alphaphor means: which transports alpha. In other words, zero is more than zero:

• zero = 0 + sqrt(-1)
