Christopher Alexander is on my mind - I have his first book, not the second two...and I don't know enough about him...and I was thinking about him and his Pattern Language Book... Just looked at Bruner - didn't know him...and just saw he wrote "The Narrative Construction of Reality." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerome_Bruner thank you!! Patterns are indeed cool! thanks Ken

"If you can’t draw a picture of it, it isn’t a pattern" -- Christopher-Alexander Did you know he studied under Bruner? The picture above, is that music? I thought I was making some progress, yesterday, with my thoughts on engaging the brain with pictures, changing from viewing an 'object' to establishing a connected 'relationship', then I found an old quote... Beyond relation there is pattern -- Gregory-Bateson Patterns are cool :) Hi Natalie,
