Pirsig's intellectual level allows for the accomodation of all the visions.
There is one set of patterns for each subject, continually changing.
There are shared intellectual patterns, but not perfectly common. Each
subject has its view of the shared patterns, an intellectual pattern itself.
There is communication, interaction, causing changes in the patterns, new
patterns, etc.
Matt:
Sure, the MoQ's intellectual level accomodates all visions in the same
sense that the universe is the sum total of everything in it by definition.
But that's not really what I was talking about. Rather, in a single
pattern of beliefs that we might call a "person," they might have one woven
pattern that answers questions about reality and about justice. Rorty
suggests that for practical purposes, we keep patterns about reality and
patterns about justice separate.
