For Your Thotz:
The previous post quoted a Kazakh contrasting
forgetting (US) Vs. remembering (Kazakh) cultures
overlayed with written (digital) Vs. oral (less so)
traditions. "Remembering" is an important component
of "Temporal Bandwidth." Also so is future planning.
Here, thus we have many variables:
1.0 Forgetting
1.1 US
1.2 Written
2.0 Remembering
2.1 Kazakh
2.2 Oral
3.0 Temporal Bandwidth
3.1 Past
3.2 NOW
3.3 Future
4.0 Media
4.1 Abstraction
4.2 Inclusion
4.3 Direction
Any Questions?
