The perception of potential: interference, dimensionality and knowledge

Leonardo Laurence Impett
2013
Conference paper
Abstract

This paper presents a system that investigates the sonification of
wave interaction in a performance space and its interaction with
a live performer – the illumination of sonic activity within a real
space, in contrast to conventional ALife algorithmic, event- or
material-based approaches. The model maintains three parallel
representations of the entire live/virtual system: wavespace,
symbol space and performance space. The cross-modal analysis
and representation of behavior is important to the evolution of
the system, which displays emergence on multiple levels of
structure. Micro-evolution takes place within the population of
wave-emitting and –listening agents. A higher level of structure
emerges from their aggregate in interaction with the live
performer, and a formal level as symbol space learns from the
performer. Cross-modal representation is seen as a significant
factor in the evolution of Western art music, in the development
of multi-leveled structure and of work that affords many
dimensions of engagement. We discuss the nature of knowledge
produced through working with such systems and the role of the
subject in ALife-generated knowledge. New models of simulation-derived knowledge are seen as important to cultural understanding.

Knowledge transfer
Knowledge transfer is the sharing or disseminating of knowledge and the providing of inputs to problem solving. In organizational theory, knowledge transfer is the practical problem of transferring knowledge from one part of the organization to another. Like knowledge management, knowledge transfer seeks to organize, create, capture or distribute knowledge and ensure its availability for future users. It is considered to be more than just a communication problem.
Knowledge economy
The knowledge economy, or knowledge-based economy, is an economic system in which the production of goods and services is based principally on knowledge-intensive activities that contribute to advancement in technical and scientific innovation. The key element of value is the greater dependence on human capital and intellectual property as the source of innovative ideas, information and practices. Organisations are required to capitalise on this "knowledge" in their production to stimulate and deepen the business development process.
Knowledge
Knowledge is a form of awareness or familiarity. It is often understood as awareness of facts or as practical skills, and may also mean familiarity with objects or situations. Knowledge of facts, also called propositional knowledge, is often defined as true belief that is distinct from opinion or guesswork by virtue of justification. While there is wide agreement among philosophers that propositional knowledge is a form of true belief, many controversies in philosophy focus on justification.
