Definitions

[phillipstearnsModerator]

From the “Cloud of Terms” thread, choose between 10-15 terms that you feel are most important to you, and define them in any way that you see fit.  If you’re citing a paper or definition, please include a reference/link to that source.  Of course, 10-15 terms is simply a suggestion, you’re more than welcome to define one, none, some or all terms!

At this point, don’t get too caught up in the history of usage.  We can do etymology of the terms as something separate from (though possibly overlapping with) the definitions.  Generate your definitions with the idea that you’re merely describing the term’s usage and/or meaning.

Once we have a cloud of definitions, I’d like to try an experiment and invert the relationship between term and definition.  So what we’d do is gather up all the definitions and tag them with relevant terms.

Great terms!  Please create definitions for these terms using whatever meas necessary: text, illustration, link to example, etc.

Yes more definitions!

Make more definitions!  What would be great is to have more definitions than there are terms!
