(2005-11-22) Levy Oreilly Simon

Steven Levy's profile of Tim OReilly notes his involvement with George Simon. Some at Xark found an old blog entry by Tim treating Simon's work as an extension of General Semantics. I can't find any other references to Simon anywhere. The excerpt of notation in the Levy article remind me of 2005-08-25-LogicAlphabet.

At the FooCamp in August, O'Reilly opened by asking participants to identify their Passion-s with only three words. After the introductions came a mad rush to a giant poster board to fill up the empty squares with an instant, Self Organized agenda. Sessions ranged from "Beyond Python" to "Tele-operated Humanoid Robotics." Tim O'Reilly's three words? Harnessing Collective Intelligence.

Update: just found Ignite talk Tim did Jan'2010 about "Language as a Map". (Sense Making)

• Oct'2012: text version of talk, ref Simon and Alfred Korzybski.
