Explain more, if you will.

>a complete ontological reorganization.
Well, I don't think it's something as large as that, but I think it's something that exists within a historical and not individual world. I think it's these things that are ultimately what make a society like human society possible, because they allow for mimesis to be possible; they allow for things to be copied and reproduced by various persons. Which is also why science and technology are such a thing, because they are made to be (in theory) reproducible and understandable, and therefore usable, by everyone.

>what is the connection to mathematics?
For example, take the Fibonacci sequence, and how it is seemingly everywhere in nature. Mathematical truths are "discovered" but what they discover was always there, all the elements necessary for it were always there, what was discovered wasn't something that was unknown due to a lack of information, but because a specific action wasn't performed. So you don't go to the field and find numbers and equations, you don't go looking a 1 or a 2. It's on a completely different realm to what's empirical.
