on constraint, structure, and behaviour

constraint constraint structure behaviour background The overarching theme of this project is alignment, – which described plainly, refers to several ways in which (arbitrarily any) universal phenomena relate to one another, across arbitrary scopes of concern 1. We evolved the means to interpret phenomenal alignment in several distinct-though-related ways: Constraint structure behaviour General special Composition Map territory Geometry graph set Phenomenal trace Tiling Here we focus on constraint, structure, behaviour 2....

on mathematics, map and territory

what are we studying when we are doing mathematics? map and territory Consider map and territory 1 2: Science interprets territory, formally, to compose representational maps Engineering composes (or shapes) territory, by applying map to circumstances, through action Mathematics, central to science and engineering, formalises cartography and navigation of map and territory, and more: mathematics charts the form and characteristics 3 of the nexus 4 between map and territory – fundamentals of constraint, structure and behaviour 5, of interpretation, representation, and cognition 6 alignment Consider that:...
