Document Summary

Relevance realization satisfies the naturalistic imperative: it can be multi-apt and profound. Phenomenology: how events are structured to make sense to you. Rr is prerational: using logic can not produce rr. Rationality is a product of your ability to do rr rationality comes from relevance realition. Rr is preempirical, preexperiential: rr sets up the structure in which you experience events. Your experiences (as a cognitive agent) are a product of your rr. Rr is pre-conceptual: representations are always subjective to something (symbols are not intrinsic) Rr is prenormative: you cannot make a judgement about something without the realization that it is relevant. Your sense of realness is preceded by rr. The metavalue of realness, legitimacy, truth, is via rr. Rr produces your fundamental framing of the world your metameaning. All structures of meaning are produced in this ff. Organisms have needs: things are relevant to an organism (needs subject and object)
