DonaldNoyesWhat's a HyperArtifact?? That sounds like it could be really interesting. Is it related to PervasiveComputing? -- SunirShah
A HyperArtifact? is to the HyperUniverse? what an object is to java -- i.e. every artifact/word/name (not just HyperWords?, HyperSentences?, WikiWords and other CompoundWords?) is included under its broad umbrella.
It is presently considered by c2WikiZens to be a PrivateLanguage?, blahblahblah, and WoodenLanguage?, a pipeDream and a confusing concept, which is far more than I had expected. That it received any notice at all indicated at least a grasp of idea, if not the valuing of it. The idea behind HyperArtifacts? starts with three important emphatics:
1) Artifacts are created, managed and made useful by humans.
2) They can and should be collected, rated and made available (reachable) for use by other humans.
3) Their structures and methods should be flexible, easy-to-use, and should tend toward increasing
useability of all artifacts.
I am consuming about one-half my time presently in the task of the manual collection phase which will culminate in somewhere around a couple hundred thousand artifacts in a simple RawHyperRepository?. ( I just passed the 64,700 mark yesterday 20080504 ). How I am doing this involves a few tricks and the exploitation of certain processes built into the MicrosoftBrowsingInfrastructure?. I intend later to make more direct and deliberate use of techniques within a series of programs with NysPrefixes?.
It is related to pervasiveComputing to the extent that if a human generates, uses or manipulates it, it is an artifact, whether utilizing a camera, a laptop, a cellphone, a wristwatch or some other IntelligentComputerPeripheral?.
I am willing to discuss this more fully at any time. -- DonaldNoyes20080326.1614.m05 (<--This is a WhoWhenWhereIdStamp? [with the where limited to which time zone <minus 5 hoursGMT> ] an IdArtifact? )
What is the relationship between a HyperArtefact? and a meme? Is the HyperArtefact? the form in which memes live in the "hyperspace"? -- HelmutLeitner
I am developing ways to demonstrate HyperArtifacts? of the type WikiPages, via a developing program I call NoteWiki?9. Basically HyperArtifacts? are artifacts (things created by humans to look at or use) which are and can be useful via a HyperLiningSchema?.
