In time for the holidays, I've added some books I've been excited by recently to my recommended reading list:https://meaningness.com/further-reading

I haven’t read them yet, although they’re on my shortlist. What’s your take on them?

It always seemed to me that Gendlin’s project has huge overlaps with yours. Basically he is trying to explain how knowing works without falling into absolutism or relativism.

Wikipedia is actually a good place to start: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Gendlin#Philosophy …

_Experiencing and the Creation of Meaning_ is Gendlin’s early masterwork, which later stuff elaborates on, as far as I know. Back in the day, for a period, ECM and Brian Cantwell Smith’s OOO were two of my most important touchstones.

Oh, I know that you wrote that Smith is the only philosopher of computation. (I forget what you said exactly, above.) You might like Data and Reality by William Kent. That’s maybe another contender for this reference class, although I think it’s probably nowhere near as good.
