a framework for toolmaking
- How may separate “timelines” can you think of and describe for the situations listed below?
- What are the hierarchies?
- What’s repeated?
- What has its own movement, what is still?
- How far down is “relevant” or “interesting” to you?
Example:
Flock of Birds (still observer, basic)
1) The flock moving across the sky
2) Each bird
3) Each set of wings
4) The tail
(notice that I have chosen not to go down to the feathers, the head, the beak, each part of the beak, any mites, the cells, the mitochondria in the cells… know when to stop.)
A car driving on a road?
In a pocket watch?
Your email software?
TV Sports Cast or News Casts (think screen graphics)?
Dance floor?
A tree? A forest?
A heard of horses?
