The Dekad of Cyberspace Joseph F Conte

The Dekadic Self is a fifth term of the human being harmonizing its four elements of soul, spirit, mind and body. To begin with, the organic whole of Commonsense would draw upon goodness, wisdom, truth, beauty and justice which would all culminate into the event of the individual achieving the ultimate goal of happiness. But what is Cyberspace? It is a marriage of logical space to the empirical space of sensory experience, a joining of the inner with the outer -- and not, mind you, that leap into the silent void which was all that Nietzsche knew as a solution to his physical and mental problems. This I tell you is the secret law toward which the chorus of Wittgenstein's propositions point! It is here at last in Cyberspace that man becomes a semi-divine spectator and manipulator of Nature.
