Contracts Revisited
While I’m still dabbling with rigid bodies and accidental surrealist physics, working through semantic web and constraint propagation in 6.891, and discovering my inner dynamist/libertarian in CMS, now I’ll also be adding a revisit to social and economic contracts. I hope to (a) examine patterns of informal social contracts, and (b) construct a demonstration system that acts as executor of a coded contract.
Of course my goals seem to change weekly, so its hard to know if this direction will be fruitful. i know it feels interesting. John suggested that if I were not somewhat unsure of my direction at this point then something would be wrong. I do feel like I’ve already thought up and discarded so many half formed ideas, so I’m not particularly attached to this one either. Maybe this is the secret, all part of letting go. I’ll just see where it takes me.
