Media Files ==== a note (or two) on categorisation ==== "These ambiguities, redundancies and deficiencies remind us of those which doctor Franz Kuhn attributes to a certain Chinese encyclopaedia entitled 'Celestial Empire of benevolent Knowledge'. In its remote pages it is written that the animals are divided into: (a) belonging to the emperor, (b) embalmed, ( c ) tame, (d) sucking pigs, (e) sirens, (f) fabulous, (g) stray dogs, (h) included in the present classification, (i) frenzied, (j) innumerable, (k) drawn with a very fine camelhair brush, (l) et cetera, (m) having just broken the water pitcher, (n) that from a long way off look like flies." -- [[Jorge Luis Borges]] "I'm not a fan of classification. It's very difficult to come up with a classification scheme that's useful when what you're most interested in is things that don't fit in, things that you didn't expect." -- [[Ward Cunningham]] on "Classification and Categorization" http://www.metabang.com/unclog/publisha/classifi.html ==== categorical acceptance ==== partially sucessful attempts at classification of the sprawling subject matters at hand. for example.. * Sounds and music * [[Online Labels]] * [[Free Media Tools]] * [[Algorithmic Music]] * [[Digital Signal Processing]] * [[Sound Software]] * [[Media Synthesis]] * [[Computer Science]] has a category collection all of its own * Art and Artists * [[Algorithmic Art]] * [[Artificial Life]] * [[Alex Grey]] * [[SciArt]] * [[Graphic Art]] * [[Glitch Art]] * [[InterMedia]] * [[Typography]] * paradoxes starting with "F" * [[Fermi Paradox]] * Fisch ([[Labyrinth Fisch]] and the [[InterFisch]]) * [[Folksonomy]] * [[SciFi]] psionic frictions * Things to do * [[Universe Building]] * [[Tryptamine Chemistry]] * [[World Jumping]] * make more categories ---- check if it is possible to automatically create a list of topics that are "categories" using dokuwiki... ** categories from the former libarynth...** * [[Category Anime]] * [[Category Biology]] * [[Category Computer Science]] * [[Category Consciousness]] * [[Category Corporatism]] * [[Category Energy]] * [[Category Food]] * [[Category Index]] * [[Category Luminous Green]] * [[Category Mathematics]] * [[Category Network]] * [[Category Physics]] * [[Category Radio]] * [[Category Robotics]] * [[Category Science]] * [[Category Test]] * [[Category Theory]] and of course, there is all the other stuff i forgot to mention -> [[Web Index]] ---- Please fill all the letters into the box to prove you're human.
