Today I write to Ward: > Another experiment worth remembering in what has now been an eight year journey: Toward a Composting Experiment
This page ends with a reflection: > _This page was written 8 years, almost to the day, that I first made the connection between Dayton, Christopher Alexander and Ward related to pattern languages. My first wiki writing was made 6 weeks later on Sat Feb 17 2018 after I met Ward for coffee at New Relic where I sought his help to develop a pattern language for what we had experienced in Dayton. It was in that meeting that he introduced me to the fedwiki._
I sense import, linking our learning arch back to Kay, back to Engelbart...
I then become curious about how this exploration might hold the potential for new meaning. So I unfold its pattern, one that connects to a concept hub, Markovian Moment. It illuminates two golden nodes and connects this thinking to that of Tina, Eric, and Pilar. I become particularly curious about the connection between the concept of moral graphs and associative relationships, where implicit relationships between parents become explicit, where causal becomes associative with emergent potential.
I leave this pattern for future rememberance:
