IN-BUILT CLASSIFICATION
At its simplest, classification is a method of organization that improves understanding through pattern recognition. Used effectively, it enables efficient workflows, and prompts appropriate action - both, in anticipation of and in response to events. It is time-consuming to set up and requires much refinement, but once reliable reaps repeated dividends, as trends, patterns and outliers become clear. Once developed, classification is a robust basis on efficiencies can be delivered, rules anchored, decisions made and code written.
In our 6D Digital Diorama, we have developed functional analysis as a form of classification in its own right, using it alongside the Periodic Table of Elements, and the taxonomic ranking of Life in our 6/12/144 framework.
6
The number ‘6’ relates to the six dimensions of TIME, space, temperature and pressure.
12
The number ‘12’ relates to the twelve elements that we will endeavour to consider at any one time, in order to underpin ‘Systems Thinking’. As a default, these are hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sodium, phosphorus, sulphur, chlorine, potassium, calcium, manganese and iron. Other may added, like plus one at a party, but the goal is to cover most organic and major industrial processes.
144
The number 144 relates to the maximum number of species that we can include as 3D ACTORS in any one scene, with humans - Homo sapiens being the one hundred-and-forty-fourth, as opposed to the first. There are no prescriptions of proscriptions what can be included and what cannot.
