[FairfieldLife] Take A Voigt-Kampff Test

2014-06-13 Thread Pundit Sir pundits...@gmail.com [FairfieldLife]
Replicants supposedly have no capacity for empathy, and their unemotional
reaction to Voigt-Kampff questions reveals their artificiality, e.g., "If
you saw a tortoise lying on it's back in the desert..."

The replicants in 'Blade Runner', based on the book by Phillip Dick, (Do
Androids Dream of Electric Sheep), are created to exactly resemble humans.
In San Francisco post WWT there is often confusion whether a humanoid is
real or an android. Bounty hunters and others use the Voigt-Kampff test to
distinguish humans from replicants. The test consists of questions which
elicit an emotional response.

In order to understand how a replicant thinks it would be necessary to get
inside a replicant's brain. This being almost impossible in the year 2002,
we might instead read about one man's attempt, in the not so distant
future, in order to become more familiar with the way replicants think and
act, so as to be better prepared ourselves, in how to deal with them.

As narrated by Rick Deckard in 'Blade Runner' Deckard plans to kill enough
errant replicants so he can replace his robotic sheep with a real one. Says
Deckard: "The electric things have their lives, too. Paltry as those lives
are." (Androids 214). In the process of hunting down these pseudo-humans,
Deckard falls in love with a replicant, in fact the beautiful Rachel, the
daughter of Tyrel. In the process Deckard learns about himself and what it
means to be human and subhuman.

As the narration continues Deckard becomes confused just like we would in
the same situation; who or what is the real human? And, how are we going to
be able to tell the 'clones' from the real thing? We can't even sort out
all the various religions, races, and nationalities now, let alone sort out
humans from identical replicants in the future!

This brings up the question of human consciousness, robot consciousness,
and how they are similar and different from us thinking humanoids. The main
theme of Phillip K. Dick's novel concerns similarity and difference;
sentient robots that look identical to humans, but are not human at all.
The central question is whether or not we can spot replicants in order to
retire them. Looming in the background is the question: is Deckard himself
a replicant?

Thinking like a replicant is the way Deckard explores his own consciousness
and humanity. Replicants, that is, androids, make Deckard realize that he
might not be so human after all. He actually becomes more inhuman than the
replicants he is remorselessly hunting! I think the answer is clear:
Androids dream of sheep just like humans do. After all, they are
replicants.

FYI: I sat with Suzuki Roshi at the SFZC for a year in 1968 and with
Jokusho Kwong-roshi since 1969 whenever I visit my daughter who lives in
Sonoma, so it's been 46 years now that I've been practicing in the Soto Zen
tradition. Up in northern California lots of people practice various types
of meditation. Sonoma Mountain Zen Center is situated on 80 acres of
rolling hills and mountainous land, located 11 miles from the town of Santa
Rosa. We are thinking about moving there next year so we can sit with roshi
full-time.

Inside the Sonoma Zen Center:



Jakusho Kwong-roshi was born in Santa Rosa in 1935 and began studying Zen
with Shunryu Suzuki-roshi in 1959. He received ordination at San Francisco
Zen Center in 1970 and began establishing Sonoma Mountain Zen Center in
1973 as his commemoration to his teacher. Kwong-roshi completed Dharma
transmission in 1978 through Hoitsu Suzuki-roshi at Rinsoin, Japan. This
authorized him as Dharma successor to Suzuki-roshi's lineage. Kwong-roshi
travels annually to the Southwest, Iceland and Poland to lead sesshins for
affiliate sitting groups.
