1. approaching promiscuous pipelines from the perspective of vocabulary

% GRAFT: Lingo
We are approaching systems with different lingos, different projects can use technical terms in different ways and often end up creating their own glossaries to facilitate communication e.g.  http://gegl.org/glossary.html

some terms

[[synonyms]]

% GRAFT: free play
 - free play {ornette coleman] as an explict rejection of 'improvisation' 
 
 - insecurity

 - improvisation
 - unpredictability
 - openness
 - modularity
 - connector / pad / plug
 - connection / edge / route
 - play(-fulness)
 - flexibility
 - standardisation
 - normali[s|z]ation
 - compatabillity (e.g. "Be conservative in what you send, be liberal in what you accept")
 - universalization
 - particularization
 - particularised universalisation

- buildings blocks vs. constellations
- class / instance (object oriented)
- flow graph languages: pads (attachment points)
- interface
- Design by contract (not just an API but a contract for behaviour)
- Virtualisation : different topologies at different layers that may not match up
- Trees and Forests Trees have a root, but in a forest they may not all root to one point (Trees are growing upside down in computation, every tree is a node) tree as a population
- Parallelism
- Convention
- coordinate
- Encapsulation
- Containers
- Rhizome (Negri/Hardt? resistance to loss of a branch, vs. Mycel -  T. Feuerstein)
- Intersection - Intersectionality
- entanglement
- metaphor taint
- (Intelligence at the edge vs. intelligence at the middle) -> permaculture vs monoculture?
- intelligence
- limits
- classification
- protocol
- ad hoc
- prototype
- shebang
- side channeling

- decoder
- segment

Some collections that resemble categories

 [[boundaries-edges]]
demarcations and connections at the same time
is an edge an abstraction of a boundary ?
interface as osmotic membrame to unite and seperate

[[modules]] 
- buildings blocks vs. constellations

metaphors
see [[some_metaphors]] + [[harvesting_metaphors]]
- fork
- tree
- osmosis (?)
- data drought

behaviours
see [[behaviour notes]]
*
system-perspectives / stances / situated knowledge / situated technology
see [[system notes]]

[[other]]
- noise
- interference
- moire
- tolerance
- generosity

% GRAFT: Robustness, reconsidering, library
Robustness principle / postel's law: "_Be conservative in what you produce/output while being liberal in what you accept from others_" [^]{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robustness_principle}
Postel's law is now considered harmful.

*Problems with security, instability
*Opposite Exactness
*Because of abuse of trust...

% GRAFT: Forgiveness, mercy
> Hackerspace: "_easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission_"    
> Anonymous: "_We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us._"

Empathy (of the nodes) -- consideration for future nodes... (or data).
Technology that could allow for aliens; without ignoring what is outside
the system nor including it... 

Boundaries and edges: is an edge an asbstraction of a boundary ...
