All,

With any formal system it is easy to spend a long time
roughing out primitives and reviewing first principles
before getting on to practical applications, and logical
graphs are no different in that respect.  But the promise
of clearer and more efficient methods for solving realistic
problems is what led me to the visual calculi of Peirce and
Spencer Brown in the first place, so my aim through all our
rehearsal of rudiments is to make a bridge to applications
a few steps closer to what the real world throws our way.

I’ve been thinking how to make the transition from basic ingredients
of logical graphs and laws of form to slightly more interesting examples,
still “toy worlds” as AI folk call them but suggestive to some degree of
what might be possible in the long run.  I’ll spend a few days gathering
assorted examples I’ve worked up before and try presenting those.

Regards,

Jon
