Hello, my name is Uri Geva and my base camp is located on the San Francisco Peninsula.

My Interests

[edit]

I am interested in too many subjects but first I need to lay out some basic concepts...

My definitions are concise, necessary and sufficient. I cannot think of an example of something that should be covered by a definition but is not and, conversely, of something that is covered but shouldn’t.

For example, consider the definition of math. Pattern does not necessarily means either repeatable or predictable. For example, Prime numbers and random numbers (both are in number theory), Penrose Tiles (in geometry) are neither repeatable nor predictable patterns. And there is no doubt that we perceive these as patterns. We find patterns in even true random numbers and chaos theory.

Another advantage of these simple definitions is that they avoid the kind of squabbling that mars such articles as the mathematics one.

These keep me out of mischief

[edit]
"Design as a process can take many forms depending on the object being designed and the individual or individuals participating." [I added the underline.]
That's not the design I am interested in. Design thinking is how designers think and work, it is the process of designing. In October 2005 Stanford University announced the formation of the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford, (a.k.a. d.School), which will be devoted to design thinking, multidisciplinary teaching and learning, radical collaboration, culture of innovation. That's the design I have in mind.
