Time-Binding

Introduction

Time-binding - a uniquely human characteristically human capacity of learning from the past and continuing to build upon existing knowledge. It includes the activity of transmitting experience and knowledgefrom one generation to another - a concept from General Semantics.

Extension to OSE

• OSE builds upon this to propose a specific method for Collaborative Time Binding - which is implemented not individually (as in modern civilization) - but by a much more highly coordinated effort involving independent but aware agents supported by modern information technology and modern means for translating knowledge and designs into reality.
• Applied Time Binding is a critical aspect of Learning How to Learn
• Socialstructing is building new infrastructures upon the old - see Marina Gorbis
• Micro Time-Binding is transmitting continuity of learning from one developer to the next in an open source micro-contribution process.
• Economic Time Binding refers to continuation of learning and building upon prior economic knowledge with the stated goal of creating the Open Source Economy.
