Sketch of A Partially Coherent Concept of Exceptions, Based on Earlier Work

1A - 1D

The first quadra concerns universal exceptions, under my first model.

2A - 2D

The second quadra is supplementary, relating to concepts in terms of nature and construct, but not necessarily philosophy.

3A - 3D

The third quadra is an interpretation of the potential realizable qualities of the second quadra.

4A - 4D

The fourth quadra is an interpretation of the ultimate unrealizable qualities that emerge roughly coherently. That is, any given thing tends to have at least one of the unrealized qualities when it is not a universal entity.

The four quadra might be tentatively called: The Watering-Hole, The Bridges, The Mathematician, and The Student.

Accomplishments Reacting Against Nature

Here I don't mean conventional un-environmental categories. Instead, I mean ideas which have not been promoted in nature, yet which may be advantageous. My method is typological, inspired in part by an architect's book called Siteless: 1001 Building Forms, which is remarkably creative. Here is the list:

Architecture, institutions, and applications

Industrial and aesthetic objects

Quality time, psychology, and info-culture

Volition, mathematics, and criticism

The soul, prudence, and mental powers

Electricity and other channels

Tactical and praxial knowledge

Politics, isms, memes, and tropes

Telepathy, Immortality, Invulnerability

Invisibility, Teleportation, and Perpetual Motion

Airplane travel, hovervehicles, espionage
