Abstract
Philosophical and methodological approaches to the processes of experimental measurement are discussed in the context of the modern natural sciences trends. “The collective experimenter” category is considered as conceptual foundation of modern experimentation in the scientific researches’ directions oriented to the people surviving in the modern world. Deepening of ecological crisis and its overcoming are connected to the process of noosphere’s elements formation according to author. Howard Pattee’s approaches to the essence of the experiment are considered from the point of view of his ideas of dynamic and linguistic complementarity of levels of complex system. Pattee insists on the fact that artificial complex system do not exist except as abstraction that leaves out the brain in which their description originated. Howard Pattee have made the distinction between rate-dependent dynamical processes and rate-independent linguistic descriptions as essential component of complex systems. According to Pattee “a measuring device is a physical constraint that tacitly execute a rule that relate a system to an element of description of system. Any attempt to make the dynamics of this execution explicit or detail only obscures the measurements. that is the more you describe the measuring device, the less effectively it measures or describes system. A similar situation occurs when we generate speech. Either we can say what we mean, or we can analyze how we have said it, but trying to do both at the same time renders us incoherent. We cannot speak two languages at once, since the essence of any language is the unity, completeness and coherence of its syntactical rules”. Thus, Pattee’s approach could be used to explain how action with things produces number. It is also very important that a complex system must read and write its own messages. Therefore, no external observer is needed for self-describing of the complex system.
