Duck Pool
Experiments

Here I explore the concepts of Semantic Operator Theory. Basically, the idea that the relationships of meaning between things has a space. Similar to the space between the rubber ducks in the pool.

The Duck Pool Experiments are simply stories that push our natural thought of language, into a conceptual space. Using various perspectives to highlight the slight signatures in the semantic patterns I see.

Exploring the Semantic Operator Engine from multiple perspectives. Each post a ripple in the pond.
