.... or another example of how the human mind is set to conceptualise? Equally important, of course.

the human mind may be said to be made of concepts of course, the question however is which concepts take precedence over others.
the gaia hypothesis in this context is a set of impressions i like to conceptualize about (notwithstanding the fact that it is a conceptual description)

Not sure I was clear. I meant as well as the interest of the perspective intended in the clip is the bonus of exploring how - not just 'that' - the mind conceptualises. All sorts of things, for instance, have been imaged by reference to the body/ organism e.g. the state, 'the church', the body politic, a 'body of opinion'. a family, a living planet etc etc. So we are looking at the outside and the inside that looks at the outside at the same time.

we agree ab, you just described the nature of self reflection, mirrors within mirrors..
