Transvaluation

Fig. 19 What Exactly is Identity. A node may represent goats (in general) and another sheep (in general). But the identity of any specific animal (not its species) is a network. For this reason we might have a “black sheep”, distinct in certain ways – perhaps more like a goat than other sheep. But that’s all dull stuff. Mistaken identity is often the fuel of comedy, usually when the adversarial is mistaken for the cooperative or even the transactional.

Fig. 20 Nvidia vs. Music. APIs between Nvidias CUDA & their clients (yellowstone node: G1 & G2) are here replaced by the ear-drum & vestibular apparatus. The chief enterprise in music is listening and responding (N1, N2, N3) as well as coordination and syncronization with others too (N4 & N5). Whether its classical or improvisational and participatory, a massive and infinite combinatorial landscape is available for composer, maestro, performer, audience. And who are we to say what exactly music optimizes?
