Default Faraday shields and radiation and misinterpretations

Between statics and dynamics is kinetics. EM is the kinetics.


This could either get very confusing, or very revealing, not sure which yet.
I found that no terms I knew fitted that well so I ended up using 'flux' and
'stasis' NOT to be confused with motion and stillness. By which I mean motion
and stillness are the phenomenon, but flux and stasis are what lies beyond,
in a pattern of information for want of better expression. To illustrate, a
tap turned to release a flow of water often shows a stationary pattern while
water is obviously flowing. That pattern is a stasis, but the water is not
still. I don't know how useful this is when resolving a distinction between
kinetics and dynamics, but it does look like we have to be careful about how
we use these terms or we might not know which we're talking about, the
standing pattern, or a manifest stillness. If we can't be clear on it we
might as well be trying to pin down the 'evanescence of soul'. (Richard
Clark, that was a good one, it's right up there with the better phrases from
Douglas Adams.)
