[Sigia-l] Edge design

[Andrew Boyd]

Hi folks,

an idea for discussion.

One of the principles of Permaculture is that biological systems are
richer along edges - where the nutrient rich current hits the reef, or
the land meets the sea.

Is there any application of this to design? Can we create "artificial
reefs" for information to grow upon? Is the flood of tagging into a
rigidly hierarchical taxonomy a real example?

Cheers, Andrew
