Lateral Thinking

Lateral Thinking

Big Sky Definitions:

Functional #1: thought processes and internal experiences which combine facts, knowledge, memory, impressions and insights in ways that are liberated from the conventional systems of categorization.

Zoomed Out # 1: Letting our ideas go free-range and observing what kinds of things they do.

Lens set:

Initial approach: Think about the idea hinted at in these fragmentary definitions

What do the words of this term mean individually?

What comes to mind when you think of them together?

What visual representation do you have when you think of them together?

What kinds of systems or objects utilize lateral movement or processes?

External ecosystems, collections and sightings

What kinds of concepts hang our in the area of this term? Should any of them be slated as conceptimals?

Outside sources are withheld for now

Technical: no need to further

Combinatorics

Combinatorics

Big Sky Definitions:

Functional #1: Combinatorics asks the question of how many different ways a set of things can be combined, rearranged and selected.

Zoomed Out # 1: Combinatorics comprises a language that allows us to describe, predict and design for explosive complexity and potential.

Lens set:

Initial approach: Think about the idea hinted at in these fragmentary definitions

Why would it be useful to know ahead of time how many ways there are to a arrange a set of things?

What fields of inquiry might this be useful in?

What systems or objects might require a language like this in order to capture key attributes?

External ecosystems, collections and sightings

What kinds of concepts hang our in the area of this term? Should any of them be slated as conceptimals?

If you feel like it and after (only after) some time consider things on your own - have a look at this wiki article. It is pretty good. Warning! if you are nerd it might just kill you!
