Thinking in Loops: Basic Building Blocks of Causal Loop Networks in the 5-Node-Model
Thinking in loops appears to be not-so-common in modern empirical scientific settings that reduce phenomena to sequences of cause and effects. However, thinking in loops is at the roots of understanding complex emergent phenomena. One ancient model used to model causal-loops is the 5-node-model, which is at the roots of Traditional Chinese Medicine, also known as the "five elements". Although the model has been widely misused by reductionist misunderstanding at later times, its original conception is both valid and genius. This article discusses the dynamics of the 5-node-model in depth.
