Session 1
Time: 1/13/2009 20:39:37   
Sources: Aesop Rock; "Cognition: Theory and Applications"   

What Is It?
•    a potential strategy for complex domains   
•    a conditional, whipped hierarchy   
•    the surface scaffolding of the trip   
•    a friend of prediction   
•    a number of fragments imagining a trail    
•    a basic representation of a step   
•    a continuous network model   
•    the limitation of outlines   
•    the likely interpretation of the explanation   
•    the nearest-neighbor rule applied to overlapping propositions   
•    an orienting task looked at from a step back   
•    a shattering variation on an integrated theme   
•    an instruction that exists only via analogy   
•    a real-world category, placed over a beat.


Session 2
Time: 1/24/2009 11:08:15   
Sources: TV On The Radio's "Dear Science"; "On Intelligence"   

What Is It?
•    the known synapse, hardly seen   
•    a stored representation, elastic   
•    opened with sentiment and sent somewhere   
•    the perception of a silhouette   
•    an elegant association   
•    not my folded layers   
•    approaching a known interaction   
•    projected energy, holding every sound   
•    the audition of pattern-changing utterance   
•    many fingers working in parallel   
•    an algorithm of eyes and bones   
•    creating several lines of code, the words you spoke   
•    a closer variable   
•    something you can carry or reliably jump from
                        
                             
                                   
                             
                 
Adam Good lives in DC, where he works as a web strategist. In his spare thought-cycles, he thinks about the Database of Descriptions, object-oriented thought, quantum semantics, and the Realm of All Relations (the ROAR).
