+Research notes on "modeling natural science".
+
+Topics/phrases:
+
+- complex system identification
+- computable notation
+- cybernetics
+- computer algebra systems
+- learning by teaching the computer
+- infrastructure and augmentation for reearch communities
+
+Don't think I want to build or study tools for their own sake; want to improve
+the state of human knowledge about natural systems, by all of: contributing new
+models; validating and improving existing models; spreading understanding and
+value of knowledge to society. If collaborative tools aren't an effective
+mechanism i'll try others.
